    I've never found any joy in wholly randomized Pokemon. Like, part of the fun is getting to know the species, what they're capable of, what counters them, and how to play around it. But if their types and learnsets get randomized, all bets are off. To each their own I suppose.

    Super randomizers like this kinda counterdict hardcore nuzlocking to me. I mean, in Nuzlockes there's no mechanical skill involved, only knowdledge. And if you don't have the knowledge what's to come, you can only prepare so much for it.
    If it's "just" random Pokemon but with the normal stats, it's at least somewhat doable. But predicting the types of each one, nah sorry. That's too much rng for me
    But still, it was very fun to watch. That could be quite the interresting series for the future, picking up hardstuck nuzlockes from other people and try to beat them

      Heya, I think you've got a good idea about PC having a series where he takes Nuzlockes in a really tricky state and tries to rescue them - I'd watch the hell out of that! Reminds me a bit of another video series on RUclips called SoftLockPicking, I think it's by either Pikasprey or JRose11, always get those two mixed up haha. But whoever did it, it's an awesome watch, and a similar idea of taking a game in a near-unwinnable state and finding a way out of it by creatively using only the tools the game gives you, but without starting a new save ^_^
      But I gotta say, I'm weirdly focused on the word "counterdict" - I presume it's an accidental combination of the words 'counteract' and 'contradict', and I quite like it! I reckon I'll use it on purpose when I next have the opportunity. But with that said, neither of those words make much sense to me in the place you used it - what exactly did you mean? I *think* you might be trying to say that it's counter to the point/nature of hardcore nuzlockes to have things so random that you can't effectively plan and strategise - is that a reasonable summary?

    This was super interesting to watch, especially with trying to predict the types of pokemon and understand why the AI made its decisions, instead of just setting up a pokemon of the appropriate type and sweeping, and knowing everything before it would happen. Its a very different skill set, and its also one you have but show less frequently.

  • @TheDrCN
    @TheDrCN 3 года назад +8

    I think if you had a randomizer that would tell you Pokemon type when it's sent out, that would be playable. I understand the value in mixing it up, but at a certain point there's just nothing you can do and that makes it unfun. If it gives you some information in the fight, so you still have to prepare with no info, you still don't know movesets going in, and you don't have enough information to do proper calcs, then that's enough to demand flexibility from the player without being unfair.

    I think everyone is overlooking something here, and that is the pokemon types and move sets aren't completely randomized every time. Like he noticed, if you find two of the same pokemon, they have the same types and moves.
    So if PC had been working the Nuzlock from the start, he would have seen most of those pokemon the E4 used before, and would have some knowledge of there types from those experiences, rather than being completely blind.
    Could have easily made the run doable.

    The outcome is unfortunate, but the concept is very interesting. That is to say, being given an existing file you know nothing about and fighting with hardcore nuzlocke rules. It's something you can't really do on your own, you wouldn't be able to excise all knowledge of the setting or rules. I'd love to see something like this again, if such a scenario makes itself available again somehow.

  • @brett1908

    I think you would’ve won on the exact same terms as he had, he probably had species knowledge from prior parts of the game to help pre-know what type an evolution tree would be, not an unfair advantage that can be helped that’s just what comes from playing a whole save file compared to just picking it up.
