The 10 year-old protagonist was, until Alola, an anime-only thing. For the lore-lovers like myself: All the gen 1 protagonists are 11, Gen 2 are 17 in the adventures manga and unlisted for the games, Gen 3 are 12, Gen 4 are also 12 in the manga, unlisted for games, Gen 5, Hilda/Hilbert, Cheren, and Bianca are 14, Nate/Rosa are unlisted, but Hugh, the rival, is 12. BW2 happens 2 years after the BW, making the previous protagonist group 16, Gen 6 are unlisted, but their manga counterparts are 12, Gen 7 are 10, as that is Alola's traditional starting age due to their trial system itself being age-limited, Gen 8 is unlisted. Edit: 11 for Alola, I was thinking it was a 'start the year you would turn that age' thing, not a 'start on/after your birthday' thing. Which means the 10 year-old thing is flat out anime only, unless you count Wally from the Hoenn games. And for general timeline comparison; Gen 1 and Gen 3 happen at the same time (roughly 1979), Gen 2 and Gen 4 also happen at the same time 2 years later (roughly 1981). Gen 5 is 3 years after that (roughly 1984), and the sequels are 2 years later along with Gen 6 (roughly 1986). Gen 7 and Gen 8 are 2 years after that, 7 years from Gen 1 in total, and happen at the same time (roughly 1988). The game timeline is fully established on bulbapedia. bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/History_of_the_Pokemon_world
@@Muggy747 Professor Oak made what is effectively a Star Trek Tricorder in the 1970s/80s, the 'modern' digitzation-style pokeballs were made in 1925, and Porygon was made 20 years before Sun and Moon. The infamous banned Porygon episode also showed that not only does digitization work on humans and inorganic objects just fine, and can materialize not just purely digital created matter, but functional complicated devices (the missiles from the 'anti-virus').

This is an interesting proof of just how valuable game knowledge really is. Even though you knew in general what was going to happen, the lack of specific details cost you the run. That said... I await the inevitable Fire only run, because it was so awful originally and I'm curious to see if it's better or worse in the remakes.
It's better overall, the underground will give you some of the other fire types, for now from what i've seen, you can straight up get a houndoom before gardenia and you might be able to get magmar before the 8 gym instead of electrabuzz.
In Pearl you get a Magmar from the Underground, and in both games you get a Houndoom. It should be harder overall, though, however FlygonHG's strategies should still be consistent across the board.
You can also get the starters from Kanto through Hoenn, and I'm pretty sure I've seen Camerumpt and Magcargo in other videos, oh, and I know that Arcanine is Diamon exclusive
The new friendship mechanics mean you don’t have to have teammates actually walk around outside with you to gain the “affection” bonuses! It’s just Friendship in these games. Great run!
Hold on, EVERY MON IS NAMED AFTER XENOBLADE 2 CHARACTERS?! This is the best video ever. This is perfection, as a diehard Xenoblade 2 fan I approve, and I’m a Pyra main in smash
Hey Axl, I love your videos!!! Just wanna let you know - Sandstorm doesn’t boost SpDef for Steel types like Lucario! It only boosts for rock types, however steel and rock both gain the immunity to the damage. Hope this helps ❤️
The Elite Four has a well balanced team with perfect IV & EV spread. Much like in Renegade Platinum. It's funny how the game before reaching the Elite 4 is so easy & then once you face the Elite 4 the difficulty is scaled to Dark Souls level. Nuzlocking this would be very difficult, especially if you're not fully prepared, & just decided to waltz into the Elite 4 like you did in the rest of the game. This game has truly the most difficult Pokemon League out there, coming closer to the difficultly level of some romhacks.
I remember watching your stream and you said you'll nuzlocke your first run, didn't expect it to be out to soon! GG Axl, love your vids as usual! And yes sadly there is no way to avoid the power of love, happened to me and my Skuntank even though I never took a walk with it.
I do agree the affection stat can really cheese some of the fights by some pokemon surviving when they shouldn't. I like to think that I am an average pokemon player I somehwat understand EV's and natures and stuff like that and even then at the same level of the gym leaders or current fight some of those fights are absolutely heinous. The remake is harder than the original and I think the affection stat balances it out somewhat especially since most of the core fights have pokemon with updates moves and items.
Shoutout to my honchkrow who lived on 1 hp twice(second after a level up) to beat Cynthia and win me the battle, being the last one standing in my team
Fun fact, if you only have chimchar before he evolves alone at the first gym, it’s physically impossible to complete, you have to get other Pokémon or evolve.
Love the Xenoblade 2 names, I've recently been replaying it so this video came out at the perfect time :). Also this is the second nuzlocke of this game I've watched today and both of them have been fails. This game sure is hard.
When I had to go up against the final Cyrus battle he was down to his weavile, I used my toxicroak. RIP Bana. I chose revenge, got it down to the red, and weavile's hidden ability pick pocket was his undoing. It stole my black sludge and took itself out in the process.
Someone else won a steel only nuzlocke with an insane amount of friendship letting the same pokemon live on 1 health repeatedly xD Forgot their name but you can find it I'm sure
"Who else used to do the Naruto run like Lucario in middle school?" Me: **cries in Old** Naruto first appeared in the USA when I was starting my senior year of highschool. When I was in middle school, anime was first making its way onto Western television. Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, and of course, Pokemon. The fact that I remember that makes me feel so ancient.
When I was doing q water type nuzlocke, I've never had issues with trainer abras. For some reason these trainers have energy ball and charge beam in the remake. Those Abra are lethal
Flint’s Drifblim didn’t pass any stats to Infernape. Unburden doesn’t give a +2 to speed, it just doubles it. Like how Choice Band+Baton Pass wouldn’t be the same as passing a Howl.
I get from a challenge standpoint the affection status effects but I do think it's the right decision because it shows your pokemon get attached to you. Not to mention you still lost 3 pokemon even when they used the affection machinic so I don't think it's completely overpowered.
Not being rude, I've been watching a lot of hardcore nuzlockes and I'm glad a few lose to Cynthia cause it shows that though there is exp share and "easier" according to some people. She still isn't a pushover
I've defeated her two times in a Nuzlocke. One was just recently. And before that, I went to battle her with just three Pokemon remaining and just two of them sweep through her team "Gallade and Froslass".
i’m actually in love with this chibi art style, i really think they did a great job with these remakes. as for the friendship mechanic, i think the herbs from eterna city or wherever you get them actually decrease friendship to make runs a little more difficult

Suggestions time: MONKE playthrough & DOGGO playthrough. We have so many monkey and dog pokemon in the dex now, I think it would be refreshing to see a playthrough in a game of your choice with these. It's not even about it being hard it's about it being fun and refreshing. The way you obtain them doesn't matter as much as just seeing what teams you'll choose to go with, please consider!!
I haven't finished it, but you can't have a modest pokemon share the name sake of ZEKE VON GENBU BRINGER OF CHAOS, also often adressed as THE ZEKENATOR
I really wish Pokemon would stop having trainers with unevolved Pokemon past their evolution level. You're already limiting them to 2 or 3 Pokemon most of the time so at least let them evolve.
nioooce niooce, i had a hardtime choosing between bug, flying and fighting to do a nuzlocke with as it will be my first try.. Went with flying just so i can watch Wingull get merked.
I love how you named your team after the characters from Xenoblade Chronicles 2, very nice. Plus not to mention I always named Riolu and Lucario after my boyfriend, Rex and no not the the Rex from that game, I do have an actual boyfriend that is named Rex😊
A cool idea would be to do a brilliant diamond psychic type only nuzlocke? Or a dual grass type run where you can only use dual typed grass type Pokemon?
How did you manage keeping the friendship/affection low? Since they merged friendship and affection stats in this game, not only does walking with Pokémon increase your affection, but so does just walking and battling in general. Friendship Pokémon like Lucario and Crobat have automatic affection with this system, like Sylveon. Basically, friendship now = easy mode. Oh, never mind. I see many interactions used friendship to survive on one HP, dodge attacks, and hit criticals. I guess it can’t be prevented. Well at least the game is harder. Honestly the real challenge of this game is the postgame rematches with the Gym Leaders and Pokémon League.
The way I did it during my playthrough was using herbs from Eterna City to lower the friendship. Basically anytime my Pokémon had any damage, I'd heal them with an herb and it kept their friendship in check pretty well

Keep up the great work Antlerboy!
Yo idk if anyone has ever said this or not, but your RUclips voice is so good man
A Modest Machop? That's enough to make a grown man cry.
A cool idea would be to do a brilliant diamond psychic type only nuzlocke?
Or a dual grass type run where you can only use dual typed grass type Pokemon?
Sheesh all nuzlocker is so fast lol
Roserade new Dazzling Gleam is a big surprise move for anyone playing this game.
Great video antler. i like fighting types and you use gallade my favorite .Dp Remakes are hard but still ggs.
There is at least more fighting types in that game
I feel like the type people chose for their first nuzloke of this game says a lot about them, if they even pick a specific type.
Brilliant diamond hardcore nuzlocke using Cynthia Team
This is why I fill out the Pokédex and then I go for most of my fighting types
