Hey mate great video, got a suggestion why dont you do a fire type hardcore nuzlock on emerald version. I think it will be a good challenge for you if its even possible, if you have not done it all ready.

@Brookesey

2 жыл бұрын

You should do moon emerald with rock types, the rock types available there are better and Rockruff spawns on route 1

I know it is your rules but I personally wouldn’t mind at all for you to allow trade evolutions thanks to a randomizer. This evolution mechanic is so annoying it’s actually cool to see Pokemons like Golem, Alakazam, etc, that we don’t necessarily see often because of it. Just my two cents. Other than that great video :)

Agreed, I think on the UPR it's called "allow impossible evolutions" or something along those lines. Self imposed rules so its up to you but I think seeing golem would be *chefs kiss* great videos :)

another rule i don't mind him changing would be being able to load a save to retry if he wipes, seeing how many tries some of his challenges take to get going, and how long the wired a$$ tactics to get them going sometimes takes, that's just gotta be crazy frustrating lol plus, getting all the way to the end, and having some bad luck end a run must be the most stressful thing i can imagine for a video like this, i get the whole nuzlock challenge stuff, but man, ya gotta cut yourself some slack

Relicanth is an underrated powerhouse. It can have Rock Head, and in later generations learns STAB BP 150 Head Smash. Equipping a Choice Band makes it a devastating weapon that deletes anything that isn’t high in physical defense. It’s glaring weaknesses, of course, is it’s 4x weakness, slow speed and low Special Defense. One of my favorite water types of all time, and for good reason!

May's dialog at 25:56 is possibly the best reaction to having that done to your team when you have a ×4 type advantage

Okay, so the thing with the girl climbing the ledge is very common knowledge actually. It was sadly removed in emerald though...

I also have a soft spot for Relicanth. It has a really cool inspiration based off of the coelacanth, an ancient fish that was at the time of Gen 3's release recently discovered to still be alive. Gamefreak was so happy about the news that they added it into the game.

Your upload schedule is perfect, every Sunday morning I look for these!

Ive never seen so many Graveller sweeps in a single playthrough. This video is gold.

Mckagan was such a Chad. It was able to beat the first 4 gyms solo and got so many high magnitude

I think specifically choosing rock type and sapphire version made this a very unique gen 3 monotype run!

I’m a brand new subscriber and I’ve worked my way through most of your challenge videos during the last week. I can’t tell you how hyped I was to see a new upload today! Keep up the good work!

I was a tad worried about how you'd deal with Roxanne's Nosepass and then you set it up so you'd learn Magnitude. That's very crafty.

I love your videos Silph, been waiting all week for this!

I get so excited whenever you post Silph! I find myself running whenever I see you've posted a new nuzlocke!! Keep up the great work!!😄

Hell Yeah get that bag bro, i love it when youtubers i love get a sponsor for a Video. I didnt miss any of em, give it your all and keep up the Lords work ♥️

Amazing run! Thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you

The fight against steven was 🔥 Great video as always, Silph!

For the Aroma Lady near Mauville City, yes she can see you over the ledge and monstrously defy the law and engage in battle with you 😂 I know this because I played Sapphire a lot when I was a kid, and accidentally got into her range which surprised me for the first time, and I have been constantly doing it every time I play Sapphire 😂😂

No!!! Raid Shadow Legends got Silph too!!!

Your videos are really fun to watch!!

Great run! Love both Sapphire and Rock types. Very interesting approach at the beginning with the EV training.

I love Rock n Rollout \m/

Love the sound clips and video edits in this video, jkrrp em coming!

That May fight was a serious case of "Never Punished."

Is this McKagan a Guns'n'Roses ref? Great run, btw, love your videos, i've been bing watching then for a month

always love the effort you put into these silph.

"ancient extinct noodly boy" made me happy

Been loving all the bad dad jokes in the Gen 3 nuzlockes

Like I only watch hardcore nuzlockes from Silph. THE BEST of all. Funny and strategic. A great combo!

So it's lore accurate that people can use held items. So in Legends Arceus I should be able to use choice Banded pokeball throws then, lol.

Since we never saw Martha's response to his question, we have to assume Silph has been inducted into the Berry Cult.
