Yeah!

Your friendship with Jaiden is so wholesome and good

Alpharad: *cancels Piplup's evolution* Jaiden: "You're not gonna use an everstone?" Me: *thinking* Were you not there when he did this challenge the first time???

Evidently not.

I love how Cynthia, the champion known to be the most difficult champion of all Pokémon, was defeated by a level 69 drugged up baby penguin

The edits. The comedy. I enjoyed this video SO much!

Official TcNick3 solo run

"It was available in the Department Store the whole time!" That's what happens when athletes prioritize performance enhancing drugs over developing their natural skills through study and training.

As soon as I heard you where using X-items to boost stats I was waiting for this run to come crashing down from Cynthia's spiritomb knowing embargo. Honestly dodged a bullet with them removing it

Does Brilliant Diamond use Gen 4 or Gen 8 rules? Gen 8 apparently neutered Embargo. (literally, the move can't be used at all in Gen 8)

Thank you. I needed this. I’m playing it on loop

2:25 as someone who did a no catching nuzlocke with a piplup, this was a very scary part of the game

I respect you for making this video.

The “affection” mechanic and its side effects have been around since XY, but since nobody cared about PokeMonAmie and it’s equivalents, it seems new since BDSP tied it in with the normal friendship mechanics, which is has been around since very early in the series. Friendship usually only affects Return’s damage and the evolution of certain Pokemon, and is raised by just having the pokemon in your party or, when the option is available, walking with them. Affection was usually only raised by PokeMonAmie.

Wdym noone cared. It was the greatest geature ever. The affection stuff ruined it because it made everyone op for no reason. The real reason why it isn't in BDSP is because it wasn't in the original and if game freak *can* cut corners they *will* cut corners. Pokemon games suck now lol

It was also tied in together in SwSh, but you won't get affection benefits in battle since it's capped unless you do camps or whatever it's called in that game. No such cap exists in BDSP.

I love that it shows him getting an everstone in the underground and yet still chooses to hit no after every time piplup levels up

Jaiden just vibing in the background is just wholesome.

Had to watch some vids and now, while rewatching this, I can say: Alpha is the definition of 'mood'. Take my sub

He tortured a fish for 2019, He suffered evolving a sentient rock at 2020, and now in 2021, watch him torture a bird. This is why we watch you Jacob.

Fun fact, you can turn double trainer battles like that double abra fight into 1v1 matches by talking to the individual trainers instead of walking into their line of sight.

It wouldn't have made a difference though, the Abra outspeeds and it's a guaranteed 2HKO with Bubble Beam unless he gets a crit.

Abra has basically no Defense. I'd think Peck is better here.

I love how Alpha could have turned into a single Abra fight by just talking to one of them on the side instead of walking in the middle

The scariest part of this video is the reminder that the mudkip video is *several years* old

Masochism and alpharad are getting closer every video, and having it end at level 69 just feels right

masochism? no, this is just rite of passage at this point.

Imagine being a trainer ready to fight the final trainer and you get destroyed by 1 piplup

Next Episode: Can you beat Pokémon Heart Gold/Soul Silver with a Totodile?

"Everstone is too easy" proceeds to not use an item for its intended purpose and fail a challenge.

"all I can really do is pick a god and pray while injecting copious amounts of healing items straight into piplup's veins" ... perfect

Watching a piplup 1 hit KO Garchomp was hilariously phenomenal.

15:06 is there a reason why he didn't just battle each of them separately
