Gosh. I was so invested. I knew in my heart that "The #1 Cause of Death in Nuzlockes...is Carelessness" slide was a warning of the upcoming tragedy but I just didn't want to accept it.
Bro that ending was PHENOMENAL. The editing, the callback to all of the vid, and how heartbreaking it was at the finish line. I don't think I've watched a vid that feels like an anthology series with a sad animation ending before. You sir, deserve my like button tap, and a tip of the hat to the don
Maaaannnnn talk about such a wild way to have a nuzlocke end. Wobbufett still holds the moniker as the nuzlocke destroyer TO THIS DAY!!!! Wonderful story though. Had me on edge the entire time.
The worst part about that ending is that Wobbuffet is a Pokémon designed purely for single formats. Don's over here playing 4D Chess and Iris still won with a swift kick to the groin.
Really neither of them really won since they were both out of Pokémon. I know the game said he lost but really they both lost and won at the same time. Personally I think it should count as a win for him but maybe it’s like WWE (if u watch that) and it’s champions advantage.
Hello there. I am the brother of Fireworks, the person behind the Nuzlocke mod that you played here. He mentioned his involvement with making the mod to me a couple years back and I was interested with some of the stuff he's been doing. Glad to see that he was able to finish the mod after dealing with a couple of development roadblocks. I never knew that the project was the result of you requesting the mod to him. I am proud that my brother did a fantastic job on this mod and that a lot of people here seem to really like it.
This was an adventure. I missed a lot of the streams, so I had no idea what to expect. This was an adventure and had me glued through the end. Such an intense end to a difficult run. Glad I was able to help make this happen man, probably my favorite video to date. Peak Editing, Peak Storytelling, and Peak Jokes. Truly the donlenous timeline.
Brother, I am proud that your work on the mod turned out great and that so many people have enjoyed your work. You mentioned your involvement with the mod to me during our vacation in California a couple years back and I am glad that you were able to finish the mod.
I’m not gonna lie, I heard it the first time and thought nothing of it, then went back after seeing this comment and experiencing it again, snot almost flew onto my phone bro. Why does the word bro make this emoji pop up 😎
Absolutely amazing video, the editing at the end was truly emotional. On a side note, FlygonHG has said in the past that Gen 5 triple and rotation battles have 100% random AI. The move choice and the target choice have no logic for selection at all. In theory, every turn is 12^3 odds of any specific outcome (if I remember my math right). Including the fact it's on a randomizer to begin with, this is truly a one-of-a-kind experience to document.
You really have this uncanny ability to create an emotional connection to your team/run through your videos. Some of those deaths felt *personal,* man. That ending felt on par with actual traditional Greek tragedies. Like I genuinely fist pumped seeing that Wobbuffet go down only to see destiny bond kick in. Like what other reaction can I have instead of going numb for a few seconds. I feel like you have a Sisyphean curse on your runs, Don. But if anyone is going to get over that mountain one day, it'll be you. o7
"It's like you took a simple game like pokemon and made it into Fire Emblem" which is literally Pokemon Conquest. It's a really good game, everyone should play it!
Right? That game is such a hidden gem. The best Pokémon side game honestly. I’m so mad they never made a 2nd game of it. I suppose they still could but at this point it seems extremely unlikely since it’s been out for 12 years. God that makes me feel kinda old. I played the heck out of the game when I was little. I remember I had like 400 hours on it the last time I checked (and I played it more after that). So many great memories with it too with my favorite being when I was having a battle in illusio castle I had taken out all the opposing Pokémon but my Pokémon that was right next to the last flag I had to get went down (I think it was too poison) so I thought I had lost because I only had 2 turns left to get the last flag with none of my Pokémon near it so I definitely thought it was over and I had lost but I had an Abra on my team and he had been protecting one of the flags I start out next to since the beginning of the battle and it a fit of I’m gonna lose anyways I randomly decide to have Abra use teleport and the goat that is Abra teleports right next to the flag and pulling out the win for me. Abra has been one of my favorite Pokémon since then. And this is just one moment out of many great ones but this one is definitely my fave.
I kind of disagree. I wish it played more like FFT or Tactics Ogre so Pokémon could use more than one move. Also the way that you had to keep castles defended on the map in the later stories, and the way that it WAS split into a bunch of stories and not one big one really bothered me. I also thought that the stages were disappointingly small and often too gimmicky, making battles feel repetitive. But hey, it's a Nobunaga's Ambition crossover, so it's got all the bad stuff from Nobunaga's Ambition.
Bruh, this was a whole cinematic. The emotional roller coaster, the editing, the reflection on past thoughts, the ups and downs. I didn't think i would watch it in one sitting but it's the best game with the best battle type, i was hooked!
The sheer masochism. Triple battles are brutal. That was such a heartbreaking ending. I've never seen a Nuzlocke run end like that. And the editing was perfect. Technically, you won the battle. But you still lost. Such an amazing video deserves a sub.
Everybody rightfully calling out how amazing the editing on that ending was but honestly I was just excited at the phenomenal music choice. Outer Wilds 100% has that "In the end I lost everything, but the journey was wort the while" vibe you were going for. Mad props to you (or whoever edits for you) absolutely beautiful
42:28 I learned this because I worked a concert for him at my job last week. Like everybody was hyped for this dude and when I asked what songs he made they just said he was a good DJ. Most people on the way out hated that he kept changing songs.
Don through every single one of your videos you can always just bring everything full circle I mean jokes, one off lines, and whatever else and it is really why you are the greatest You ARE THE DON
You know, it's been a while since a nuzlocke has truly made me excited. So many videos take a super analytical approach matter-of-fact approach to the concept, but it's the story telling, the emotional investment that really made me love nuzlockes to begin with. Nuzlocking is about discovering the weirdest strategies that actually work. It's about forming a connection to the pixels on the screen, feeling sad when they die, and hyped when they succeed. It's about using pokemon you've never used before and developing a love for the forgotten mons like Lumineon. This is what nuzlocking is about!
Bruh how the heck you keep producing banger after banger video?? Genuinely this was utterly fantastic to watch. The Triple Battles, the Strats, The MUSIC CHOICES WERE FIRE, the Story told with each 'mon. & that ending was a thing a beauty using all those IRL points to narrate the ending. You won that Nuzlocke in my heart. THE DON IS REAL.
This is honestly a phenomenal video. Great delivery on your jokes, found them funny even when the sense of humor didn't entirely match. The storytelling was top tier. Excellently set things up. How you ended the video with the last battle was also phenomenal. Only part I found a tad underwhelming was strategic discussion for specific battles and scenarios, but that's inherently limited by being a randomizer with a completely random triple battle AI. And you managed to still get a good bit in for general strats despite that and the amount of humor. Looking forward to seeing more from you, def subbed!
I’ve now watched this video in its entirety twice. The edits on it are both incredibly satisfying and the best I’ve ever seen! Please keep doing stuff like this. It’s incredible, you did an amazing job!
Between this and the Pikmin randomizer video I am loving the Doncumentaries! Really fun editing, quips flying left and right from the great commentary, and the slideshow added an excellent level of humour and clarity to it
Bro this has to be one of the best nuzlocke videos I've ever watched, the editing, the humor, the storytelling, the fucking powerpoint presentation, THE CHAMPION FIGHT, all perfect, can't wait to see what you have planned for the future
I love this video so much wtf triple battles my beloved. between the editing, music & story im just overwhelmed by goodness. i did NOT cry at the end, YOU cried! btw, what's the music at around 30:45 help my earworm!
as someone who’s never seen you before, this video was such a banger it earned an instant follow. loved the concept and execution, especially the final fight
This is actually a phenomenal video wtff. I watch pokemon vids on the daily and this is one of the best nuzlocke vids ive ever seen. Amazing editing, story telling, execution, like dude this is amazing
This video is fantastic. Phenomenal editing, story beats, perfect callbacks in the last 10 minutes. Definitely one of the best videos I've seen. Makes me want to try my own run of a randomized triple battle nuzlocke.
This was genuinely some of the best nuzlocke content I’ve seen. The editing is fire, your story telling and sense of humour are totally on point, I subbed in the first five minutes. Please keep it up!!
That was an amazing story to accompany an amazing run. Triple battles are so great, I’m mad they never came back. It’s a shame there were those extra deaths from grinding as well, it’s always somehow a little worse for me. I switched to candies (whenever possible) forever ago and haven’t looked back. The time saved and the lack of meaningless deaths to wild Pokémon make my runs a lot more enjoyable for me to play.
You, my friend, have earned a sub from me. Beatiful storytelling, great song choices for bgm, I love how you were able to isolate the sound effects of the game from the music, and your skills as a Pokemon player are really strong! I'd love to try this myself sometime, but I'm nowhere near good enough to try that at my current skill level.
Love the editing style and set up man with the monitor behind. Appreciate people’s set ups and how they story tell so appreciated that . Good video and good comedy too. Love Unova too so this was nice 💯 Also storm drain on finneon def goes crazy
The algorithm really blessed me with this one. Between the editing, the storytelling, humor and everything else? 10/10. This video took a whole lotta time and effort, but you crushed it. Great job, man.
First time I ever see a video of yours, and it's an absolute banger of a video. The emotional rollercoaster. The ups and downs. The editing. The conclusion which called back to things said earlier in the run. And of course, the most cinematic way a Nuzlocke could possibly end. A one-on-one against a Wobbufett as the champion's last Pokémon, ending with a death to destiny bond. Technically speaking, you did defeat the champion's final Pokémon, but it didn't matter because of destiny bond. What a conclusion. I've liked and subscribed. After that video, you've definitely earned it and more.
Such as insane video! Absolute Cinematic masterpiece! That ending just hit difference, never thought a Nuzlocke video would cause me to get teary eyed! 🥲
This is my favorite nuzlocke video on RUclips. The narration, the comedy, the writing and directing in general is very good. Keep it up man I’d kill to see more
I've watched a lot of Pokemon Nuzlockes in my time. Lots of Alpharad, pChal, little FlygonHG... But this one. This is the best one. The "story", the energy, the humor, THE MUSIC [chefs kiss], and let's not forget the Powerpoint slides baby. I not only learned about a format I never really knew about - Triple Battles sound kinda cool though, but I enjoy everything about this video. We're gonna see a runback right?... Right?
That was such an emotional rollarcaoster. This is my first vid of yours and damn do you know how to deliver content in a funny way that doesn't get old. I hope you attempt this challenge again with an adequate break beforehand. This was amazing first attempt, you rocked it.
Absolute insanity in the best way possible, especially the last 10 minutes - super new to your channel but I'm hooked, keep it up the great content (though I'm sure making these are a lot)
Now that we got that out of the way honestly your content is fantastic and you’ve quickly become one of my favorite poketubers. Hopefully I’ll get some work out there soon with you guys but lmk if you ever want music written for the channel
I only recently started watching your videos but I’ve been hooked for the past few days and this video might be my favourite one you’ve made if not the pikmin randomizer. the storytelling, the emotional connection you somehow made us feel towards celebrity-named Pokémon, and the way everything came to a close was so well done. One of the only RUclipsrs that can take a lost nuzlocke and make it feel worthwhile and entertaining.
this was a genuinely phenomenal video that grabbed my attention and held onto it. Amazing work, especially at the end. Its unfortunate you had to lose that way.
thanks so much, really appreciate it. Honestly, I nevermind a loss in these runs cuz then I feel like whenever I do something it's like "okay but is he actually gonna win?"
I have never been moved to tears by a challenge run, man. You had me on the edge of my seat, only to tie Iris to the struggle. You gotta run this back, my guy, you just gotta; even if it’s not the exact same run, you gotta stunt on Iris and get your runback. Phenomenal video; subbed as hell
This has been such an amazing storytelling nuzlocke video. I love the way everything was handling, from the direction to the editing to the beats of video. Man... it was so bitter, and it was great.
Goddamn you didn't have to pop off so hard with the editing and storytelling, that's crazy, phenomenal work as always And if nothing else you've certainly proven, even in loss, you're still the Don
Another amazing Nuzlocke video from the DON. Thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish and am proud you got a sponsorship too! This channel is going places and I am happy to keep watching.
Wow, this was an amazing video. I was captivated the whole time, and I loved how the story played out. Your energy and the emotion you put in to this video just made it an incredible watch. The ending had me on the edge of my seat. It reminded me of the time I played a soullink nuzlocke with my brother and he lost one of our best pairs to a Wobbuffet. That thing is a menace. Again, amazing video.
Waiting for Jan to make a video reviewing this simply so i have an excuse to watch it again. Phenomenal video, such a unique concept, and your humor and delivery is on point. Keep it up!
Wow, I can’t believe I’m only just finding your channel! Amazing video, love your commentary and delivery and this ROM has me excited to Nuzlocke for the first time in years.
The fact that this master piece of a video doesn’t have more vews is CRIMINAL. Lenguage barrier is keeping me from expressing how good of a video this is and how good of a youtuber you are so imma just like the video, share it and move on to binge the rest of you channel.
This was the most intense, hilarious, emotional rollercoaster of emotions video I’ve ever sat down and watched, and throughly loved every moment up until the very last second. You’ve earned another subscriber, amazing content.
Wow, first time ever seeing you on my feed and you had me more invested than an alpha rad video, amazing editing and spectacular story telling, jokes are on point and a fresh way of playing Pokémon. 10/10 makes me wanna watch the video again! Keep it up man imma go binge your other vids
You somehow managed to get true emotional investment out of me. This felt really good to watch. It's hard to explain how much I loved this video. Great comedy, call backs, themed naming, steller editing. All around fantastic. Actually my favorite Pokemon-involved video, of which I've seen very many.
Please do more of these kind of long form playthrough videos. You are absolutely hilarious and very quotable! This is an incredible video and had me falling out of my chair laughing.

That last 10 mins was PHENOMENAL, Wobbafet is a huge pain, the ending really put me on emotion.
"Nah, I'd Destiny Bond."

Use any form of status damage and he is the easiest pokemon to deal with, like burn with flamethrower or setting up toxic spikes with Nidoking.
Three wobs in a row is wild
The ending was incredible. You using parts of the video to summarize your ending was jaw-dropping, I loved it. Absurdly perfect. Keep it up
glad you enjoyed it I was extremely proud of the ending
@@DonShnackso question, when you whited out at the end did that count as a win or no?
@@GroutEnjoyerusually you have to see the credits to time
@@GroutEnjoyer in the Pokémon main story if you ever run out of mons you lose. So it's a loss.
Bro that ending was PHENOMENAL. The editing, the callback to all of the vid, and how heartbreaking it was at the finish line. I don't think I've watched a vid that feels like an anthology series with a sad animation ending before. You sir, deserve my like button tap, and a tip of the hat to the don

@@DonShnackyour taste in music is literally amazing
why stop here? why not SIX at once??
WAIT A MINUTE HES ONTO SOMETHING
Pat I need to see your reaction to this you and the don how good
No no no no no!
Huh... I never would've thought of this, but now that you've mentioned it, I desperately want to see someone try to do it.
This may be doable in X and Y/ORAS by modifying horde battles a little…granted it may crash the game or lag it to being slower than a Shuckle.
This was an adventure. I missed a lot of the streams, so I had no idea what to expect. This was an adventure and had me glued through the end. Such an intense end to a difficult run. Glad I was able to help make this happen man, probably my favorite video to date. Peak Editing, Peak Storytelling, and Peak Jokes. Truly the donlenous timeline.
thank you for the amazing mod fireworks 💙💙💙

Pokemon and nobunagas ambition
You fight against actual people in Japanese history like Masamune in Conquest
Bruh, this was a whole cinematic.
The emotional roller coaster, the editing, the reflection on past thoughts, the ups and downs.
I didn't think i would watch it in one sitting but it's the best game with the best battle type, i was hooked!
The sheer masochism. Triple battles are brutal.
That was such a heartbreaking ending. I've never seen a Nuzlocke run end like that. And the editing was perfect. Technically, you won the battle. But you still lost.
Such an amazing video deserves a sub.
First video I see from you, and gosh, one of the best videos I've ever seen. Thank you for the great editing.
Means the world to me. Thank you for such an uplifting comment :)
Definitely recommend checking out more, all his vids have spectacular quality in editing and narrative
Yeah, same. This guy's energy is pretty good.
Everybody rightfully calling out how amazing the editing on that ending was but honestly I was just excited at the phenomenal music choice. Outer Wilds 100% has that "In the end I lost everything, but the journey was wort the while" vibe you were going for. Mad props to you (or whoever edits for you) absolutely beautiful
The best pokemon game, with the best battle type, with the best RUclipsr???? Sign me up
Actually true
one of those three statements is correct
That’s an argumentative statement

Don through every single one of your videos you can always just bring everything full circle
I mean jokes, one off lines, and whatever else and it is really why you are the greatest
You ARE THE DON
You know, it's been a while since a nuzlocke has truly made me excited.
So many videos take a super analytical approach matter-of-fact approach to the concept, but it's the story telling, the emotional investment that really made me love nuzlockes to begin with.
Nuzlocking is about discovering the weirdest strategies that actually work. It's about forming a connection to the pixels on the screen, feeling sad when they die, and hyped when they succeed. It's about using pokemon you've never used before and developing a love for the forgotten mons like Lumineon.
This is what nuzlocking is about!
I've been getting so bored of nuzlocke content, but this video's presentation and your commentary made it fresh and fun again. Really enjoyed this
Another Don Classic. I really enjoyed the theme of you naming every Pokemon based on a famous actor
Bruh how the heck you keep producing banger after banger video??
Genuinely this was utterly fantastic to watch. The Triple Battles, the Strats, The MUSIC CHOICES WERE FIRE, the Story told with each 'mon. & that ending was a thing a beauty using all those IRL points to narrate the ending.
You won that Nuzlocke in my heart.
THE DON IS REAL.
This is honestly a phenomenal video. Great delivery on your jokes, found them funny even when the sense of humor didn't entirely match. The storytelling was top tier. Excellently set things up. How you ended the video with the last battle was also phenomenal. Only part I found a tad underwhelming was strategic discussion for specific battles and scenarios, but that's inherently limited by being a randomizer with a completely random triple battle AI.

thank you so much genuinely means the world
God this video is probably my favorite pokemon video ever. THE FLASHBACKS AT THE END? *THE ENDING?* couldnt have ended better
Between this and the Pikmin randomizer video I am loving the Doncumentaries! Really fun editing, quips flying left and right from the great commentary, and the slideshow added an excellent level of humour and clarity to it
Bro this has to be one of the best nuzlocke videos I've ever watched, the editing, the humor, the storytelling, the fucking powerpoint presentation, THE CHAMPION FIGHT, all perfect, can't wait to see what you have planned for the future
This video is honestly phenomanal. it has good funny hahas, interesting topics, and something that amounts to a pretty good plot.
I love this video so much wtf triple battles my beloved. between the editing, music & story im just overwhelmed by goodness. i did NOT cry at the end, YOU cried! btw, what's the music at around 30:45 help my earworm!
Thanks so much fr and the music there is Heave Pierce Her Deep Blue from ULTRAKILL
Don was right about typhlosion btw
This was storytelling at its finest, great movie!
That final segment is peak cinema, no joke! Well done!
Amazing video, Don. The storytelling here rivals FlygonHG: you had me until the very end.
Appreciate it tons : )
This was wonderful to watch, start to finish. Kudos to the editor.
Yeoooo greatly appreciate it man, was always a big fan of your stuff. Also I edit all my vids so I appreciate the kudos as well :)

Also storm drain on finneon def goes crazy
This may be one of my favorite videos on the entire platform, extremely well done Don
this is impressive and quite unique, almost never cared for triple battles outside of pledge moves
Really good vid Don!
THE UNIT was Awesome!
Keep up the good work!
This was honestly an incredible video, had me hooked start to finish
The algorithm really blessed me with this one. Between the editing, the storytelling, humor and everything else? 10/10. This video took a whole lotta time and effort, but you crushed it. Great job, man.
bro that ending got me tearing up, amazing vids as always my dear don
I’ll be honest “Vanilla Ice used Gust” got me so much!
singlehandedly one of the best videos i've ever seen, editing was phenomenal and the ending gripped me more than any movie ever has, my god,
To answer the killing a parent question i say father cause corpses are pretty easy to kill.
First time I ever see a video of yours, and it's an absolute banger of a video. The emotional rollercoaster. The ups and downs. The editing. The conclusion which called back to things said earlier in the run. And of course, the most cinematic way a Nuzlocke could possibly end. A one-on-one against a Wobbufett as the champion's last Pokémon, ending with a death to destiny bond. Technically speaking, you did defeat the champion's final Pokémon, but it didn't matter because of destiny bond. What a conclusion. I've liked and subscribed. After that video, you've definitely earned it and more.
Subbed just because of this video, you gotta make more of these this was a blast to watch
Man you are such a good story teller! I was enthralled start to finish! Amazing work!
Such as insane video! Absolute Cinematic masterpiece! That ending just hit difference, never thought a Nuzlocke video would cause me to get teary eyed! 🥲
seeing this genuinely means the world. Thank you so much for the kind words fr
This is my favorite nuzlocke video on RUclips. The narration, the comedy, the writing and directing in general is very good. Keep it up man I’d kill to see more
I've watched a lot of Pokemon Nuzlockes in my time. Lots of Alpharad, pChal, little FlygonHG... But this one. This is the best one. The "story", the energy, the humor, THE MUSIC [chefs kiss], and let's not forget the Powerpoint slides baby. I not only learned about a format I never really knew about - Triple Battles sound kinda cool though, but I enjoy everything about this video.
We're gonna see a runback right?... Right?
That was such an emotional rollarcaoster. This is my first vid of yours and damn do you know how to deliver content in a funny way that doesn't get old. I hope you attempt this challenge again with an adequate break beforehand. This was amazing first attempt, you rocked it.
Thanks so much, with the positive reception I’m def thinkin of running this back in ORAS or XY
This is the first time i ever seen lumineon being super usefull
This is amazing!
Absolute insanity in the best way possible, especially the last 10 minutes - super new to your channel but I'm hooked, keep it up the great content (though I'm sure making these are a lot)
1:20:35 I consider that a win
This was unbelievably entertaining. I watched this over 3 sessions and legit found myself looking forward to seeing what was next. Good shit man.
Dude was definitely a theater kid. Ngl it makes him really entertaining
I have NEVER seen a more consistently entertaining nuzlocke video. Everything is an A+
this did not age well 9:10
The editing and commentary on this were legit captivating. And that ending? Incredible
I swear to god you’re from southeastern PA if not Philadelphia itself. Call me a liar. TELL ME IM WRONG DON
WE REPPIN PHILLY OUT HERE BABYYYYYY
NO WAY PENNSYLVANIA GUY?? Greetings from State College!!
Now that we got that out of the way honestly your content is fantastic and you’ve quickly become one of my favorite poketubers. Hopefully I’ll get some work out there soon with you guys but lmk if you ever want music written for the channel
@@deviousdieselmusic yooo you cookin up music 👀
I only recently started watching your videos but I’ve been hooked for the past few days and this video might be my favourite one you’ve made if not the pikmin randomizer. the storytelling, the emotional connection you somehow made us feel towards celebrity-named Pokémon, and the way everything came to a close was so well done. One of the only RUclipsrs that can take a lost nuzlocke and make it feel worthwhile and entertaining.
Genuinely such comedic timing and awareness. Not many videos make me laugh like yours.
Well you got me hooked on your channel, what a phenomenal video. The storytelling is incredible
this was a genuinely phenomenal video that grabbed my attention and held onto it. Amazing work, especially at the end. Its unfortunate you had to lose that way.
thanks so much, really appreciate it. Honestly, I nevermind a loss in these runs cuz then I feel like whenever I do something it's like "okay but is he actually gonna win?"
That ending was absolutely beautiful. A cinematic masterpiece. Kudos to you and thank you for sharing this experience.
I have never been moved to tears by a challenge run, man. You had me on the edge of my seat, only to tie Iris to the struggle.
You gotta run this back, my guy, you just gotta; even if it’s not the exact same run, you gotta stunt on Iris and get your runback.
Phenomenal video; subbed as hell
This has been such an amazing storytelling nuzlocke video. I love the way everything was handling, from the direction to the editing to the beats of video. Man... it was so bitter, and it was great.
Goddamn you didn't have to pop off so hard with the editing and storytelling, that's crazy, phenomenal work as always
And if nothing else you've certainly proven, even in loss, you're still the Don
Another amazing Nuzlocke video from the DON. Thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish and am proud you got a sponsorship too! This channel is going places and I am happy to keep watching.
Your commentary is so entertaining, I can't get enough of your vids Don!!
Wow, this was an amazing video. I was captivated the whole time, and I loved how the story played out. Your energy and the emotion you put in to this video just made it an incredible watch. The ending had me on the edge of my seat. It reminded me of the time I played a soullink nuzlocke with my brother and he lost one of our best pairs to a Wobbuffet. That thing is a menace. Again, amazing video.
Waiting for Jan to make a video reviewing this simply so i have an excuse to watch it again. Phenomenal video, such a unique concept, and your humor and delivery is on point. Keep it up!
Wow, I can’t believe I’m only just finding your channel! Amazing video, love your commentary and delivery and this ROM has me excited to Nuzlocke for the first time in years.
The fact that this master piece of a video doesn’t have more vews is CRIMINAL. Lenguage barrier is keeping me from expressing how good of a video this is and how good of a youtuber you are so imma just like the video, share it and move on to binge the rest of you channel.
This was the most intense, hilarious, emotional rollercoaster of emotions video I’ve ever sat down and watched, and throughly loved every moment up until the very last second. You’ve earned another subscriber, amazing content.
One of the best if not the best nuzlocke video I’ve ever seen. I enjoyed every bit of it😂😂😂
May just be one of my favorite youtube videos of all time now.
Well done. Absolutely well done.
Wow, first time ever seeing you on my feed and you had me more invested than an alpha rad video, amazing editing and spectacular story telling, jokes are on point and a fresh way of playing Pokémon. 10/10 makes me wanna watch the video again! Keep it up man imma go binge your other vids
This was a journey and a show of master class story telling in only the way the Don can tell. Keep up the phenomenal work!
This looks like so much fun, complete overhaul on the overdone traditional nuzlockes & double battles. Thanks for making me want to replay B2/W2 :')
You somehow managed to get true emotional investment out of me. This felt really good to watch.
It's hard to explain how much I loved this video. Great comedy, call backs, themed naming, steller editing. All around fantastic.
Actually my favorite Pokemon-involved video, of which I've seen very many.
Please do more of these kind of long form playthrough videos. You are absolutely hilarious and very quotable! This is an incredible video and had me falling out of my chair laughing.
