Larry is the most based character in all of pokemon. All he wants is to finish his shift so he can grab a good meal, head home, and relax. He is the true protagonist.
Larry is the ultimate lifeform
Larry ate my parents🤣
Arven is the BEST character. LARRY is the based one.
@@TheRibottoStudios ah yes *THE BASED ONE*
Larry is my life turned into a video game NPC.
Damn Jan killed it on the narration on this one. You can tell he’s been paying attention to Alpharad’s lessons. Props
Oh hey Seanie didn't know you were also a Jan fan!
What is this, a crossover episode?
I have no idea who you are but zamm you're close to 100K
He even used Undertale music for the sponsor too
if i kill my snorlax is it cheating to catch a new one on a new rout in a nuzlocke
I love how Larry was originally normal type, so when you see him you think "oh okay, put my fighting type up first" then, be used flying type in the E4, complete counter.
Except that im pretty Sure that Larry explicitly tells you that His e4 Team ISNT an normal Type Team and that the Game still allows you to Change your Party before you start the fight
Edit: apparently He only tells you once the fight starts and you cant Change your team
I didn't have a fighting type on my team, so I put my nacli evo (forgot the name since I named it ssalt) up first, ended up better than I could've imagined
@@norikwiese8900 He does tell you he's not using normal types anymore, but its only after you begin the fight, so you can't change your lead at that point
That only happens if you weren't paying attention to the fact that the previous two were the titan pokemon type trainers. Which meant that he was going to be either flying, rock, or dragon.
There’s no set mode so you can switch Easiest pokemon game ever
Jan is finally getting funnier, those Alpharad roasts worked
Lmao in what video did it roasted?
@@vitovitovito4927 I don't remember the title but it was one of Wolfie's videos where, after getting his Nuzlocke run roasted, he "gave advice" to Jan to improve his videos
@@EnzoDraws do u mean alpharad?
@@guacamole6934 SHIT I MEAN ALPHARAD i just realized that now while watching an Alpharad video, I must look like an idiot lmao
@@EnzoDraws To be fair, his new style does have elements of Wolfie's...
for the people wondering why he didnt show the miraidon fight at the end is because that fight is designed for you to win
100% chance for the Affection Endure to kick in on a Pokemon you haven't even made a sandwich for BAYBEEEEE
@@misirtere9836 to be fair you definitely gave it like 6 sammies
@@misirtere9836 mfw i used a hyper potion cause i was scared i fucked it
Anyone remember the thumb people from Spy Kids?
@@Thisisnotasign lmao so did I
Personally I think Larry being revealed to be part of the Elite 4 was probably one of if not the greatest plot twists in the entire game
spoiler….
for me was the evil prof and it being an AI💀
I was really hoping Nemo would be in the Elite Four, so he dashed my hopes.
I mean the fact he could take the time off from making fact finder videos about classes Nes games is what puts it over the top
i want to like this so bad but i’d ruin the punchline
Jokes aside, not even close
Okay now that I’ve watched the video in full, I gotta say, meme/fake rivalry or not, I can tell Alpharad and Jan’s back and forth is actually helping Jan get better at writing and presenting his videos but in his own way. Love the growth and the quality of content!
lol i thought it the worst script yet
he just sounds less deadpan
Fake rivalry? The real battle has only just begun!
@@tatedaniels8410 You’re new here huh
@@arod68993 not even kinda
You can really tell the friendship with Alpharad is growing. Not only are they soul link nuzlocking, but PChal is learning how to write scripts for his videos
I really like the roulette wheel solution to the problem of overworld encounters. It's definitely different from the dynamic created by the "classic" Nuzlocke wild encounter system, but that's frankly just out of our hands as players.
Did the roulette wheel consider encounter rates? I'm not even sure whether that information was available immediately after the release.
@@El_Kanto I don't believe so, but he said he liked the extra aspect of "if you roll something really good you'll have to hunt for it"
@@El_Kanto Nope and that's partly why it's a different dynamic. But I like that different dynamic.
Pretty sure there was a variant like that called a Dicelock
I'd also argue that whilst the new encounter system is bad for nuzlockes, it's a massive improvement in terms of bringing players into the world
It's kinda crazy that the gym leaders pokemon don't have 4 moves lmao
you can't take the jank boss design out of Pokemon
@@kennyedgar21 Goes back as far as Blue's Exeggutor only having three moves in his champion fight in Red/Blue.
That Reminds me of Volo and his final boss fight, I believe two of his Pokemon didn't have complete movesets.
@@ToaArcan The difference is, the reason why it's like that in Red and Blue is because the cartridge was so overstuffed that they had to cut corners in some places, and that meant giving a lot of enemy trainers' Pokemon their level up movesets.
It's just that Exeggutor only learns 3 moves by level up because it's a stone evolution.
The reason why they stop having 4 moves starting in gen 6 is because *that would make the game too difficult for kids you guys. SHUT UP ABOUT WHITNEY JUST BECAUSE SHE'S EXTREMELY MEMORABLE DOESN'T MEAN WE WANTED THAT TO HAPPEN*
It's kinda normal for early gym leaders, but the Normal gym's ace ( who is level 36) only having two moves (Facade and Aerial Ace) is ridiculous.
I startled so hard that I almost choked on my porridge when Jan suddenly threw in that German sentence. It was so unexpected, I had to rewind to actually understand what he was saying lol. I always forget he's one of us
same here hahahah. Thats why i went in the Comments to see if someone else noticed what i just notices
jesus christ i almost had a heart attack hahaha
@@AleBRoni same
ging mir auch so ;)
Wir sind eben überall haha
I love that Jan is using the "Outside" voice ever since Alpha told him to😂
What do you mean?
@@Dude5375 So basically, Alpharad told him to be louder in his sponsers because he was very quiet during most of them.
I think your workaround for the game no longer doing completely random encounters was fantastic and worked perfectly in terms of trying to emulate the randomness of a normal nuzlocke
l dont know about perfect,, let's say there's a route where two mons spawn, one with 90% likeliness and the other with 10% likeliness. With jan's method, he'd simply 50-50 it while in a perfect simulation the other pokemon should be way rarer to randomly encounter
@@Sponsie1000 So you put pokemon A into 9 slots on the wheel, and pokemon B into 1 slot, to simulate a 90/10 percentage. It's not *that* difficult to fix
@@sarcasticat6979 l agree, but he didnt that did he? So the method he used in the video was imo not a perfect emulation. There's a fix to get closer, but that doesnt affect what l said at all :]
@@Sponsie1000 that's fair, I didn't really think about that
@@Sponsie1000 there is no percentage of encounters in these games, instead pokemon have fixed SPAWN location, it's impossible to factor an 90% rate of pokemon cause i can simply visit the spawn of a pokemon and he will ALWAYS be there, also the numbers aren't exact cause they can appear either alone or in multiples of 5/4 with an evo in The middle. There are too many variables to determine "spawn rate"
Honestly, that whole area zero portion of the game is easily my favourite section of any pokemon game. I really hope that GF expands on those ideas and gives us a full game around that kind of tightly written story
I really liked the random dialog it just felt so slow cause suddenly I have to walk once again and I fully explored 😅
The Fuecoco Foreshadowing line at 4:22 read a lot like Alpharad’s content and I’m here for it. I liked your delivery
i can almost hear the alpharad inspiration but it still remains the classic PC chill style and it makes for a great and unique type of video that was fun to watch
im exited to hear the review for this game on this channel
The true ending is straight up ANIME level good. Like...XY anime level good.
Poor Arven.
What? He battles with his almost dead dog after you give it enough drugs to finally stand back up…He is a horrible person and or horrible righting. Also they reused the same cut scene 5 times in a row. Maybe that’s what you mean it was like anime. Reused still frames over and over in a series of punches and kicks. That does sound like SV story. So you’re right very anime.
@@jayplay8869 bro the drugs literally fully cured the dog, the dog was excited to be healthy and active again
@@jayplay8869 tell me you smashed tf out of A without telling me you smashed tf out of A.
@@limerumpus3589 Bro the dog is just extremely old.
Arven is lying to himself, the drugs didn't do anything because you can't cure age
@@ngotemna8875 Again tell me you smashed A without telling me you SMASHED A. The dog wasn't OLD. He got severely injured in the crater of paldea.
10:31 until 10:46 was like a fever dream because i never expected pchal to be this slay
He’s such a bottom
Never thought I'd ever hear "pchal" and "slay" (the way you did it) in the same sentence.
I desperately wish they'd had another year or two to make this game, it would have been SO GOOD.
Glad he mentioned the brokenness of the early game Flamigo towards the end. I caught it and used it in my team because I just hadn't seen it before and really wanted to try new pokemon this game, and Flamigo was sweeping gyms like it was nothing. Absolutely busted pokemon for the early and midgame.
He sweeps the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 8th gyms, 1st, 2nd and 5th star bases and the 1st, 3rd, 4th titans easily.
Speaking of good writing - these videos keep getting better and better; loving the content
I feel like the friendship/rivalry with Alpharad has really improved both creators' content. Alpha learning the games better and Jan did a really good ad read XD
The writing was insane. There have been Pokémon games where the characters feel like cardboard cutouts, and you are treated like some crazy “chosen one”-where at this game has incredible characters, a heartfelt and meaningful story that is just super badass, and overall it just made me FEEL stuff. Like wow. If only they had waited a year to release it so they had time to iron out the bugs…
The writing was good, I just wish the plot itself before the, ah, ending stuff matched it. Basically, the plot beats themselves and the focus of the story held the writing back.
You are still threated like a crazy "chosen one" almost the entire E4 goes to watch your matches and say how special you are meanwhile some 100 years old people are STILL in school and only Nemona defeated the champion yet somehow throws an ember at your water starter (at least use the normal move ffs).
There are still several major plot holes but i agree, the ending is really good, 10/10
This is definitely the best video you’ve ever made man, so funny so well edited and the animations looked clean, really levelling up on your RUclips videos ❤️
Having binged your videos these past few weeks, I can say that you've massively improved at writing scripts and making videos in general. You may not see it yourself, but it's clear as day to me how much better you've gotten over time. Thanks for all the great content and I hope you keep being awesome 🙂
Jan has really stepped up his script/joke game. This and the Emerald Kaizo are really entertaining to watch and listen/rewatch and relisten!
my pokemon in Pokemon platinum (rom hack) just get pokerus but if the virus leaves after 1-4 days does the ev boost stay?
@@diablo5028 The EV boost on the Pokémon stays, but your pokemon don't get extra EV's anymore.
Larry might be my fav gym leader/ elite 4 member ever. It was refreshing to see a leader who wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows about being a leader.
I also don’t blame him for being totally drained the champion is totally overworking the poor guy making him be a gym leader and elite 4, I don’t blame him for just wanting to get home
my pokemon in Pokemon platinum (rom hack) just get pokerus but if the virus leaves after 1-4 days does the ev boost stay?
My man has actually listened to Alpharad's friendly critiques and managed to improve his writing and presentation skills while staying true to his wry style and not devolving into theaterkid warm up improv. Character arcs in the games and in real life lfg. Seriously, this is markedly improved, keep 'em coming.
Final boss script was super on point. Iron Bundle naughty list and the yugioh references had me laughing. Good shit.
THAT YU-GI-OH SENT ME
Awesome work like always! I was very curious on how you would Nuzlocke this game
This video was so good I gotta watch it again! Great writing, really fun to watch, and a killer ad read, keep it up Jan!
amazing video
genuinely
loving the voice over, the comedy I enjoy a lot, good random interaction farms
your sponsor transition did make me laugh
great job PC :D
Despite all the bugs and low framerate, this game has become my favorite pokemon game. I just love it, I love the story, the characters, and all the little guys :)
The pacing of this video is so good lmao, feels so nice to watch after a long day of classes
I gotta say, I love how you worked around the encounters in this game. I've been wanting to do a Nuzlocke on these games but was waiting to see what the general consensus was for how to do encounters. But now that I've seen your idea of rolling a random wheel of all possible encounters in the area, I think I'm going to use that 😃
Great video, Jan! I love the storytelling you're beginning to do for the RUclips videos, keep it up!
I got an idea for a challenge where you have to let your pokemon decide what moves to learn by using the "get advise" button
Production value feels much higher in this video. Far more enjoyable to watch than some of your old videos. Alpharad would be proud. Even the product placement was very well done.
I gotta say I joined when you started reacting to nuzlockes and your voiceovers have improved. Comedy, poke knowledge, and ad breaks we solid. Excited for the game review!
You can tell he's been taking notes from Alpha with his script writing. I love seeing Jan develop his skills and can't wait to see where he goes with his videos :)
Your story writing has taken such a jump since you've buddied with AlphaRad, I'm super happy for you and cannot wait to see more
Narration popped off on this + NORD ad was sooo well done and relevant
Man. I think Jan getting more immersed in the Pokémon RUclipsr community (especially his friendship with Alpharad) is having some really fantastic benefits to his content and happiness
Fun fact, Larry is a flying trainer in the elite 4 as a subtle reference to the fact that he wants to jump off of a fucking skyscraper
Alpharad learned how to be a better Nuzlocker and Jan learned how improve his scripts and timing on his videos, honestly kudos to both
The decision to remove set mode is so bafflingly stupid to me. It's been in every mainline game since Red/Blue/Green, they *Chose* to remove it.
4:22 you definitely took those pointers from alpharad to heart huh? First time I've giggled at one of your videos in a while, even though I love watching them that was a breath of fresh air.
this video was genuinely so fun, well done king jam
He really made me watch the ad to learn about a Pokémon strat well played sir well played
Lol your reaction to Grusha was my exact reaction to Rika
Bro gotta say, love the work you are putting into these vids. Awesome improvement
I love thé style of this video, it seems like PC is taking inspiration from other youtubers while also keeping his old style intact and I love it. I also think this nuzlock gets extremely hard once you include the team star/titan in the progression and level caps. The team star fights in particular are pretty tough. Also exp management becomes more important as the level caps get closer together. Overall loved both this game and the video!
ew
I'm gonna try to hard-core nuzlocke Violet using only ice types. I love ice types, and am just super excited about the buff they got with snow over hail
Goodluck! Also can you even get ice types prior to reaching the mountain?
10:30 is the most hilarious moment for me i was laughing hard when he just said that XD
I love the way you integrated the mimkyu ability into the nord vpn ad, very clever and one of the few times I didn't just instantly skip past a sponsored ad in a video
This was definitely one of your best videos yet, loved it from start to finish
I accidentally talked to the gym guy inside the resturant with the normal type gym before talking to anyone else, and somehow I got it right on my first try! I truly was very lucky. 😂
Literal same lol
I loved these streams. Skeledirge and Cloyster OP, though
Er machts nochmal spannend am ende, liebe es
this video was amazing i loved the editing and humor
Wait til you see meowscarada signature move
The polymerization joke had me cackling like a maniac
That Pokemon Colosseum music when you go over Nemona fight at the end ❤️. I would love to see you do a run on that game (and Pokemon XD aswell)
Oh those games are notoriously brutal to Nuzlocke. They're considered the hardest Pokémon games for a reason.
PC's charisma is getting better he isnt so monotone during narration anymore GG mate
The rivalry between Alpharad and Jan is actually based because they are learning from each other. Alpharad sometimes plays around the crit and Jan is a little better at video flow, humor and undertale ad music
he’s getting better at talking like an actual youtuber
This was such a fun video to watch; you've really upped your game in terms of presentation and pacing and it shows!
If you want a presentation tip, here's one from a speech teacher i had in middle school: If you intentionally speak/read your lines a but more slowly, it keeps you from sounding rushed or stumbling, and lets you control the pace a little more easily. It's great for building tension or revealing things dramatically. Take it or leave it!
I've really been enjoying your videos since that back and forth you had with Alpha. Looking forward to more!
I love the undertone of hollow knight. You played hornet music in the back and you made a mantis lords reference at the beginning too
I thought exactly the same about set / switch mode. Also, no turning battle animations off? Less bad because of auto battle stuff, but still. Battle animations are cool on your first casual playthrough. Then, it's a waste of time.
Animations are likely to avoid desyncs and shit in multiplayer.
If that's the reason, then allow it offline. I will play offline most of the time and I'm sure a lot of others as well.
Actual impossible: Getting through this whole game without a bug
When glitchless% is a challenge run, not a speedrun category.
yeah it's really easy to run into nymble when you're not looking :)
Jan really is learning from alpharad.
This was unironically the most entertaining video I‘ve seen on this channel yet :)
The integrated ads I cannot XD
Keep at it Jans
Fuecocooo
Thought the hardest challenge was going to be any% glitchless
Alpha has really inspired you to take you scripts to the next level. Best video yet
I adore this game.
Never had any issues with it either.
Could be the combination of playing digitally and handheld only.
Definitely agree about fuecoco and its status as nuzlocke supreme. I have also had fun with hydreigon with terra steel, not to mention dragonite. Hydreigon as the muscle with dragon tail and dragonite as the wall. I am now playing around with grass terra t-tar.
"This is the first Pokémon game that has no villains?"
Bro entirely missed that the PROFESSORS you know, ARVENS PARENTS are the villains. Not only that but they're deadbeat walkout parents too. The reason why we only have Turo in Violet is cause Sada left after Arven was born. In Scarlet, Turo left. It's dark man.
They aren't villains, I mean u could consider "villain" arven s dad in scarlet and arven e mom in violet, who left after he was born, but the professor weren't anywhere close to being villain.
they simply believed in something that could never become real, and died before they could understand that, their ai counterpart, infact, understood that the reality they were dreaming could never become true, and that means that the professors would have reached that point as well...
Being a shitty parent doesn’t make you the villain. It makes you a shitty person.
@@You-hp3rl In any case, each professor is an antagonist
@@You-hp3rl DISAGREE because even the AI is shocked when the paradise protocol protection agency is activated. "Is keeping the time machine running really all the professors cared about?!" it asks and then tells the children including arven to run. Meanwhile the professor sacrifices themselves for the box art legendary, probably not even thinking twice about their child and his dog who most likely got hurt in that event. They are so callous that they do not care about what would happen to Paldea if the paradox pokemon ran amok. That to me, is the definition of evil and a villain. I know it's hard to accept because they're the professor and someone of science and status, but that's that.
The opposite parent of the game is actually unnamed
Why don't you talk about the titan fights or team star bases
I had a feeling that Fuecoco was a little overpowered, and I"m glad to have that confirmed. I love my croc, but I remember sweeping the champion and having a thought of "this shouldn't go as smoothly as it is"
Hey Jan. Great video. Was cool seeing you at worlds too!!
Not hard when you spend hours calculating every outcome of every battle beforehand
its almost as if it takes effort to do that and that rng exists no way
the game wasn't hard anyway, with or without planning
Wait until Jacob finds out Jan is a league degen, he’ll never live it down
The story and character/Pokémon designs in the game were so on point for me. So what in the nine levels of hell happened with the background, rendering and all those flipping glitches?!
I'm glad you were able to find a way to try and Nuzlocke this game too because I honestly was at a loss as to how anyone could do it if you could just see all the Pokémon in any given area.
Mismanagement. The schedule was certainly too tight and they might have been understaffed, especially the folks making art assets.
Debugging and optimization take time and can't be rushed by putting more people on them. There's no excuse for the low texture landscape assets, that's a budget problem, not hiring enough people.
I'd love for battles to look more alive, like Stadium did. It was recently pointed out that the big difference in the style of those early games is that they animated the camera a lot. Cinematography. It's missing from SV except for a few moves like Torch Song and Flower Trick.
Hell yeah! I've been using roulettes to decide what types to use in my monotype nuzlockes in Sword and shield, this is a great use for them but does require knowing All pokemon in an area and a bit of set up.
From “I can’t do outros! wah!” To the literal best one on RUclips thus far lmao
Great commentary for the last fight. Really working on your video craft and it's paying off
"Er macht's nochmal spannend am Ende!" I burst out laughing lmao hell yeah dude
You can really feel a bit of Alpharad's influence on the script writing and energy in the voice over, really cool to see you keep changing what your content is!
Don't think I didn't notice the extra effort you put into an energetic voice for this video! It's a great improvement, keep it up!
This video is one of your funniest yet tbh
Drop that full review !
Your editing and script writing has gotten way better, gg jan
That 20 hour stream to finish the game honestly gave me life. Also helped get the Heracross a spot on the roster
Idea for a Nuzlocke! Classic nuzlocke rules - such as naming pokemon and catching the first one per route, but all your pokemon start at level 100, fighting pokemon doesn't give experience and after each battle the global level of your pokemon goes down by 1.
This video is markedly funnier than all of his other videos. Good job Jan.
Liked and commented for the League reference hahaha. Love it when a creator has two of the same loves (vices?) as you
not gonna lie the league bit had me rolling. I appreciate the content!
I think if you want random encounters, it may be possible to do a Tera Raid Battle Nuzlocke. The only Pokémon that can be caught are from raids.
You see what element their Tera-type will be, but the Pokémon inside is randomised, so it's a layer of strategy, "I need an Electric Tera 'mon to fight the Water Gym", with a layer of chance, as that Electric-type could be anything, and it forces you to adapt movesets based on the random Pokémon you get's Tera Type; the Tera Electric Pokémon you get could be a Grimer, for example, so you put Thunder Punch on its moveset.
I think the "Teralocke" rules need a bit of refinement, but I honestly think there's something there for future Gen 9 playthroughs. I think that type of Nuzlocke would lean into SV's unique mechanic, and gets around the random encounter issue in the game's overworld.
I had plans on doing this after i was done with the 1man party clear with Skeledirge, though im not caping him, just having fun and blasting through the game as fast as possible for me.
Glad I took your advice and went back over your themed nicknames, I don't think I saw your bombirdier in the video and it would have been a shame to miss that easter egg. Easter egg may also have been a good nickname for a Chansey or something idk.
"i'm foreshadowing. Now I'm lampshading! Now i'm letting this joke overstay its we-" he really is getting funnier
gotta say i'm bummed you didn't have iono deliver the nordvpn ad like you pitched in today's pchaldaily, I was looking forward to that lmao
