When you trust in God and cast your cares (worries, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts) upon him, they will be NO MORE! Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! The world is wicked, evil, and of the devil. I too, was a wicked sinner of the world before I opened my heart to God. I am living proof of God's work and fruitfulness! He is an active God who hears the prayers of his! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous. The devil is a liar that comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy; that includes your relationship with God! Open your heart to God, repent of your sins (he will forgive you), and let him direct your path. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands and purify your heart, lest you walk with the devil and follow him to hell.

No, not always good faith. Some of us do genuinely hate the impact he has had on the nuzlocke community. I'm sure he's a decent person, I don't wish harm or anything on him, but if you loved nuzlockes before the culture he created then he really is a villian. Used to be that if you commented about optimal strategies and mons you should've thrown to the wolves, you'd be rather unanimously told to gtfo, this is about making a story. The rules are explicitly designed for you to get attached and play with your heart, you're ignoring the entire point of the fucking ruleset. But now people just pointing out "suboptimal" shit are some of the loudest voices of the community, and swiftly growing.

I feel like this is realistically more like what pokemon battles would actually feel like irl. Less of a "I trained my pokemon for so long that I'll never lose" and more of "okay, I need to make the most out of what I have, and counter what I know they have from my research" really entertaining vid, excited to see the next part

That's pretty much what makes High level pokemon battles impressive. Small Ant and Pchal are both very skilled players, so it was bound to be a solid challenge. This format though, is really placing these guys in the very heart, as Pchal mentioned with pointing out that he doesn't have to focus on defeating him outright, just get good early kills that weakens the party's capabilities for the Elite 4 and deliver the defeat in the Elite 4.

Thats what hard nuz tries to emulate.

Honestly the rare candy thing in nuzlocks is really smart. If anything it makes it harder, but less tedious. It’s less tedious because you don’t need to grind, and you can actually play the story, but at the same time you’re not getting any evs from battles, and your Pokémon will be slightly weaker

@JacklynBurn

My other thing would be that skipping grinding also removes the small chance that you get bored and slip up against a wild mon. It's probably supremely unlikely for someone like smant but if you get sloppy while no-brain grinding, it's entirely possible for the right wild mon to just snipe a death

Mikeremer did an AMAZING job editing this. The back and forth reactions and mind games made the tension so hype I cannot get enough

I really like this concept as a playstyle because it means that you can have fun with your friends while you play a challenge.

This was so freaking entertaining! Can’t wait to see part 2! 🙌🏻

I've never wanted a Nuzlocker to actually fail their nuzlocke so badly before. This was so exciting tho, I really hope you do continue this.

Jesus Christ is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. They that believeth and are baptized (with the Holy Spirit) shall be saved; but they that believeth not shall be damned. Those led by the Holy Spirit do not abide in wickedness. *God is ONE manifesting himself as THREE;* the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit! Bless him! *For these three are one.* As I am led by the Holy Spirit, nothing I state is a lie, but the truth of God. Anyone who tells you differently is misinformed or a liar. They do not know God, nor led by him. Anyone who *claims* to be a Christian and is against what I am doing, and where I am doing it; the Holy Spirit does not dwell within them, they lack understanding. They know not God, read his word, and their religion is in vain. Do not hear them, they will mislead you, the lost cannot guide the lost.

When you trust in God and cast your cares (worries, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts) upon him, they will be NO MORE! Know that there is power in the name Jesus Christ! His name casts out demons and heals! The world is wicked, evil, and of the devil. I too, was a wicked sinner of the world before I opened my heart to God. I am living proof of God's work and fruitfulness! He is an active God who hears the prayers of his! God's children are set apart (holy) and righteous. The devil is a liar that comes to steal, to kill, and to destroy; that includes your relationship with God! Open your heart to God, repent of your sins (he will forgive you), and let him direct your path. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands and purify your heart, lest you walk with the devil and follow him to hell.

Okay this is freakin cool as hell, id love to see more of you two doing this stuff

that watson fight was like the pokemon equivalent of anime battles that go on for entire seasons, and kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time

Usually smant mind games everyone else, but this time Jan takes so long to move (and for that matter is really good at strategizing) that smant mind games himself

12:25 defines this entire video. The anticipation building up just for you guys to go ONE TURN, thinking of all the possibilities and option coverage to ensure the advantage, just for a miss! 😂😂

The editing was outstanding! Seeing the process of both of them starting with an idea then both completely flipping is so satisfying.

Hope that there will be more of these to come! Super entertaining to watch!

Imagine if the Pokémon Company, being the most profitable media franchise in history, put the amount of effort and innovation into their games like some of these ROM hack makers do. Would be fun and a game changer to have some of these multiplayer mechanics in an actual game….

@Akwatypus

Жыл бұрын

To be faaair, Pokémon DOES have some of these multiplayer mechanics since PvP battles have always been a thing!!! hohoho- Lol jk I know you probably didn't mean it like that... Having multiplayer Gyms and maybe PvP stuff in main storylines kinda sounds spicy. But it also could be miserable (especially for starting players) if not handled carefully. Like how would you truly implement forced PvP in the main branch without hindering the player's progress if they keep losing? But somehow still making the PvP aspect matter? It's an interesting thought.

If people stopped buying the mediocrity, then gaming companies would have to up their game. I can't blame all these companies making millions / billions every year while putting less and less into their games because the majority of the player base are stupid and buy regardless. Keep consuming.

I honestly love that Watson fight watching 2 people narrorate different sides of a battle is so extremely interesting

So well edited! I'd love to see more like this

Honestly pokemon challanges reinvented the nuzlock comunity by gettin every1 to rare candy, hes right it makes it so much more fun

I love to imagine that at the start of every battle, Jan shoves the trainer aside and starts battling smant instead of the trainer 😂

this was so flipping cool to watch, seeing the cuts back and forth between two high level players discussing their plans and trying to work around each other is such a treat

I respect the max rebels and rare candies. It doesn’t do any good to show wild battles, or grinding. It’s never a challenge in the nuzlock, the challenge comes from the trainers. Having to grind or fight wild Pokémon is a matter of wasting time.

This series is SO MUCH FUN!!!! I’d love to see more, and even into the other games if it’s possible!

The absolute mental gymnastics needed when fighting an actual person vs an NPC is insane

The editing on this was phenomenal. The quick switches between them strategizing really added to the intensity.

spent a few minutes replying, There will never be a part 2, ant doesn't make videos when he loses, same with "pokemon but anything that can go wrong does" If anyone wants to see part two its on pokemon challenges channel, he will never upload it here.

This was really cool, hope to see part 2!

I've always wished that you could verse like good AI in these games, but never imagined someone else taking over. That was so sick, please continue this series, was fun watching you both on this!

This is like watching L and Light Yagami play Pokémon against each other

The Watson fight was, by FAR, the most entertaining pokemon content I've seen in a WHILE. Good job, can't wait to see the rest really

I haven't had this much fun watching pokemon stuff in a long time. Would be awesome to see this continuing!

The amount math and damage calculations they did is unreal. Would love to see this again! Or a map Randomizer vs Jan.

Okay but like this editing though? This was cut together amazingly well to show the mind games during the finale!

This is the most intense playthrough I've ever watched, MORE. Great job on the editing 👏👏👏

really fun seeing you guys play off each other! you're both good sports and it shows

I will admit, I had kinda lost interest with pokémon videos despite rerally liking smallant becaue he felt too smart for any challenge. Having two giants of these game play it out is INSANELY intense and entertaining, I hope we get more videos of them reading each other into oblivion

rooting for Jan to kill something to keep things interesting, but then once Tanner's at the E4 we root for him to be able to win

Well of course Jan is going to lose all the time if he’s facing a level and numbers disadvantage in literally every single battle.

This is such an incredible video. The juxtaposition between both of your strategies, overlayed on top of each other is great. Please do more of these.

I haven’t seen this video yet, but I think it’ll be interesting because the other guy could easily focus on different strategies. Either going full in and trying to beat him completely or actually just trying to get rid of certain Pokemon. This is such an interesting idea for a challenge.
