Honestly my favorite gdq runs are these ones where things go horribly wrong, not because I wanna see the runners fail but I love seeing them ride out what’s happening, reroute and re plan on the fly instead of another hard reset. Well done to shen and his commentators
02:17:00 This run is such a wreck but I am having so much fun watching! XD When you started the monologue about speed boost I had tears in my eyes from laughter.
Still in the process of watching this in chunks throughout my day, but this is very entertaining. There are so many things that can go wrong in nuzlockes and randomizers, but adding the speed element is very interesting and removes one of a Nuzlocke's greatest safety nets - Decoy pokemon. Never really having anything to switch into to bait out or eat a big hit for you is an extra layer of difficulty.
Despite the disastrous attempts, the run is so much fun to watch. The 5-min rule is kinda hard though given that you are basically banking on one lead pokemon whilst not having enough decoys.
5 minutes? Nuzlocke rules? Man it takes me like 40 hours to beat the game normally, no way I'd be able to do this, the timer counting down would give me too much anxiety as well lmao
This is somewhat off topic but I’ve somehow just now thought of it. The opening cutscene is the moving truck pulling up in front of the house. Where does this truck come from? There are no car roads to be seen. And rarely are land vehicles in this world at all.
Honestly I feel like Shen was making good decisions a lot of the time, but stuff would just stack up against him. Most of the time his guesses on damage were pretty close, so when he missed an OHKO by like 2hp, I feel like it was probably a low damage roll. easy to see how frustrating it gets having to relax the rules more and more while trying to show off a fun challenge run.
The speed stuff comes from a modified version of Emeral called speed choice. You can find this in Shen's Discord. The randomization elements come from the universal pokemon randomizer. You can find this through google

I love it when Shen , Keiz and Eddaket get together , theyre so much fun.
you just need keiz and your good, shen and eddaket are a bonus
I will watch any run with Shen, Keiz and Eddaket. They banter so well together and are a font of pokemon knowledge.
Arial or Calibri?
I'm glad you all decided to keep the first bit in. It's nice to see an example of how quickly this challenge structure can fall apart.

This is a fantastic dumpster fire of a run, so much so that I had to post my first ever youtube comment. Love ya Shen.
Alright, this is interesting. sacrificing Animals to go fast, sounds like a speedrun
This trio is always a delight, great chemistry, and a very fun run to watch!

"We have heard the voice.
All hail the voice.
The magic conch"
Lmao commentary/10
Man the combination of shen, eddekat and keizaron is so good. I laughed quite a few times at their banter
The SpeedChoice menu has an 8-bit version of the ORAS Contest theme and I love that.

"You just have to say that you're fine, when you're not really fine, but you just can't get into it because they would never understand."
That Dragon Dance Wigglytuff was DISGUSTING. Thanks for the idea on how to play Emerald in a new sense Shen!
Great runs, rly showcasing Shen's skill and lack of luck at the game

02:05:46 "I just need to avoid crit" most famous last words for a nuzlocke. Lol
Castform was my favourite pokemon for the longest time but look I don't blame *anyone* for not using it.
Love Shen runs! Welcome to the underscore guys
without a doubt this is THE BEST CHALLENGE RUN I HAVE EVER SEEN !!!!
Had a blast watching. GG, that was one unlucky crit.
Shen: "I'm sorry if you're a Castform fan."
Somewhere, off in the distance; "can i get a h a i l y e a h ?"
This was so much fun to watch, fun banter to sit back and listen to.
What, no Shen doing the "get a Zigzagoon to level 100 before the first trainer battle" run? :D
Krabby?
Believe it or not, it drops.
Excellent run, I loooooove Challenger Approaching!
Haven't watched the whole thing yet, but I just wanted to say thanks for the great content. I greatly enjoy Pokemon Shenanigans haha

I was wondering when we’d start seeing this kind of Pokémon challenge run at a GDQ, looking forward to watching this! :)
let's play a 4x4 mine sweeper
yeah! all 4 mines!
all hail math
rip blaziken. but shen wasnt crit @4:21:09
This was a great watch. More Pokémon gdq is always good. Especially with shen, eddaket, and keiz
Pokemon crew always put on an enjoyable show. All hail supreme galactic overlord Wigglytuff

The truck is a pokemon
This was a super enjoyable run. I want to see more of these.
This is the Little Shop of Horrors seed. Victrebeel just keeps saying "feed me shen(more)"
Where can we get the speedchoicr mod for this?
Shen's Discord has most of what you need
lol i thought my headphones were broken near the beginning of the run
I am loving the challenger approaching series! Keeps things fresh
We need Pokemon Challenges to give a shot at this. Maybe not randomizer, but jan would be a good adittion to this kind of challenges
Wigglytuff? More like Wigglytough 😅
Tough run in general, especially at the end… but still so fun to watch! Enjoyed it all the way through ❤️
Great run! Looks fun as hell!
This is a nreally interesting idea for a nuzlocke
Emerald = Love 💚
It’s funny because Castform is, in fact, my favorite Pokémon, but I understand it’s not very good.
how did he get gamecube controller to work with emulator?
Probably the Switch adapter.
Always enjoy Shen and company.
That was really fun, hope you get to show a propper run on a marathon someday

When they said wind like wind instead of wind...I felt that.
Nice concept well executed !
What randomizer settings do you use to make the first fight have a randomized wild pokemon attacking birch?
Yeah that drops
how do i mod pokemon emerald?? that pregame menu looks so fun and im not knowledgeable on technology
Is there information on how to make a game modded like this one?
The speed stuff comes from a modified version of Emeral called speed choice. You can find this in Shen's Discord.
The randomization elements come from the universal pokemon randomizer. You can find this through google
Do people do this with the pokemon universal randomizer or is the somewhere you can grab the roms?
wait....didnt he catch an electrik and jolteon in the same route????
What rom is this? I would like to play this for myself
It's called speed choice. There are versions for Red/Blue, Crystal and Emerald currently. You can find most of the resources in Shen's Discord
I was hopeful you'd finish with that second Jolteon, but then...
Ah yes, i see shen, i press like
This was a very fun and interesting run to watch! Is the speed settings a modded version of the game? Is that available for public access?

I’d love to see more speedlockes
Always a good time with the poke crew
Thats so interesting!
This might be the dumbest run I've ever seen and I love it
Well goddamn. Why would you do this to yourself? Great speedrun though, keep going!
Very fun run
I dont understand this
Turns out Keizaron is a decent singer...
This is rad
The dragon dance speed boost...oh god...
What a grind.
Good work Shenanagans_ on finish your run under estimated.
Sick run!
Love the challenge!
Even though I feel like the rules could be refined a bit

I personally thought this run was perfect
Interesting concept
This is for myself 12:36
What a meme run.
great job!
Incredible
That Wigglytuff was savage...
God I so hope he comes across a shiny. I love killing shinies 😂
Dope Shit
rip
🙂
This guy is a Pokémon savant
Yo
Randomizer? Eeeeeww!
I love pronouns.
Wish this had audio lol
