Could you post the link to the hack? Im struggling a bit to find it. I usually only find viruses
I like to think this is how Giovanni felt as a gym leader. Being a ground specialist in Viridian city with Earthquake as a signature move, he too probably got very tired of mercilessly EQing children's pets for 8 hours a day.
That’s why he uses fissure so much. Got to gamble to mix it up.
No wonder he eventually formed an evil team, dude was so bored
@@brittanyno5941nah. That's because Oak surrendered the war to Lance and Giovanni had to revolt. (If you know you know)
@@iamekid valid reasoning, Oak betrayed all of Kanto
@@charteon9092 betrayed all of Kanto and created a trainer he couldn control like a puppet just so he could be back in power. He should answer for his crimes!
When you said the name of the antagonists I got all excited like "Oooh, Ruff Riders? They probably use dog-like pokemon, what a fun pun" and then I saw they're just spelled Rough Riders and are regular thugs and my disappointment is immeasurable.
A DMX reference is a bit too much to hope for.
Bless Dana for the cutscene during the sponsorship segment 😂
First time in a while I’ve laughed at a “time for you to get a watch” joke
The two things that, based on this video, stand out to me as missing from the "Be a Gym Leader" experience, is 1; trainers coming in with type advantage setups, and 2; gym customization.
For the former, what if, for a Ground type gym, recurring trainers like Jeff would slowly incorporate Flying types, Grass types, Water types, etc, as the game went on, and you had to plan around those with your essentially monotype roster.
For the latter, I do like management sims, but designing your gym ala Dungeon Keeper or maybe tower defense, setting up puzzles and prepping your gym trainers, seems like a way more compelling part of a gym leader experience than an extremely simplistic city sim.
I like this idea much more. The object would be yo fight as few trainers as possible seeing as you only have a limited amount of health and moves per day. Then every once in a while a mandatory trainer like Jeff comes in to fight with an absolutely stacked team.
If a "meta" type trainer showed up would be fun. Like someone whos showed up to a ground type gym with 6 Gyrados.
Yeah this would be a great way to do it
This sounds awesome, I imagine starting with a gym like brock's, but without the gym trainer, then you could slowly recruit gym trainers, give them pokemon to use, and they could generate passive income for you if they manage to defeat incoming trainers. Then you could set different types of traps and puzzles, or add some sort of gimmick (like rotating battles, double battles, etc). There's a lot of potential for this concept
the dungeon maker + tower defense aspect would actually be awesome. Since you have a limited monotype roster and the trainers don't, the battles would be a lot more one-sided, right? (Assuming trainers actually use pokemon and moves that have an advantage against you) That's where the dungeon maker would come in. Instead of buffing your team by battling the same underpowered pokemon over and over, you could instead design a gym that is meant to wear down the trainers that come in so that they are WEAKER when you battle them. That would make overcoming challenges a LOT more fun!
Imagine strategically placing gym trainers with status moves like thunder wave to potentially cripple a challenger's dragon dance sweeper in advance... Though maybe tougher challengers could have healing items that they can use to recover outside of gym trainer fights. And, of course, the challengers need to be much stronger than the gym trainers to make sure they actually reach you. Those are just some ideas I thought up, but the dungeon maker/tower defense simulator would be very fun for this kind of game.
Perhaps being a Gym Leader really is just boring. I mean, Volkner was literally one trainer away from quitting his job from the boredom. Maybe he was on to something
I gotta say I loved the naming scheme this time - deserts for actual ground types and desserts for non ground types was a stroke of genius
Also, now that you mention it, I would love to see a hack where you play as a gym leader and opponents tend to build your team around things that you have trouble with. Essentially challengers act like players - they know what youll have and what works against that, so that’s what they bring. As you change your team, they figure out what works against that too
Playing this game as a normal type gym leader was a pain… my best Pokémon was snorlax, the rest were all just early game Pokémon like Raticate and furret, there were like no good normal type Pokémon to be found, still a pretty fun and short game, pretty repetitive in the gym part tho
I did the same thing but staraptor made up for lack of good normal types
I imagine normal/flying could make up for a fighting weakness
@@kazekamiha the problem is not the type matchups, the problem were the Pokémon, there were no good normal types to pick, the highlights were starter snorlax, Drampa and staraptor, all the rest were Raticate, Sentret and wigglytuff who did nothing, I had to beat most fights using curse snorlax like it was gen 2
Normal is actually one of the best types to do; remember the up to two off-type pokemon clause IF they can learn your gym's tm. Return is learnable by almost everything, meaning you can use almost any pokemon you want. Hitmonlee also has a regional normal-type form in this game, Blissey is there for a team pivot, and Obstagoon is an absolute monster.
@@TheSphero yes, but i refuse to be a diamond and pearl gym leader, using Pokémon that aren’t my type, that kinds of ruins the experience in my opinion
You are a rare talent my friend! Being able to make a seemingly monotonous game enjoyable content for your viewers with your wit and tom foolery is one of the reasons you’re my favorite RUclipsr!
The start of the game is great, you get to pick a type, choose a starter, get a tour of the area and setup for the story, and receive your signature move. Catching nearby pokemon is great as most gyms use pokemon similar to what you've seen with maybe a rare pokemon not seen before or an evolution of a nearby pokemon. I think they need to focus less on the town-building part and get further into the customization and mechanics of the gym. Possible gym challenge setup based around your type? setting the gym trainers teams? maybe allow lower-rank battles that require you to meet a team limit and level cap, forcing you to keep low-level pokemon on standby at the gym. It's also common for people to challenge a gym, lose, then rework their team to better match the gym leader. Would be cool to see Jeff show up every day with more and more advantageous pokemon on his team. I'd also like to see there be a small bonus for being defeated since that's what gyms are for. If you get defeated X amount of times you might get demoted, but losing once isn't bad, and can teach you something.
The main story is the only part I don't think needs much changing, it mirrors the simple story of a pokemon game, and really needs no changes. I like the new forms present, and the rules for what pokemon can and cannot be on your team make sense and are pretty fair.
Overall a pretty cool fan game, a few bugs or glitches here and there aside it's a very respectable game. The fact that it's a fan game means it can take feedback to make the game even better over time. Excited to see what other cool fan projects will spawn.
yeah lots of weird decisions by the dev
I wonder if needing to keep a diverse range of levels would've kept it more interesting.
Black and White 2 Cheren says they have to tailor their parties to how many badges their challengers have, so it would be neat if your reputation also factored in if the fights were "fair" or not, with needing to not exceed certain levels based on your opponents badge count.
And the Scarlet and Violet came and didn't do that. And to this day, I can not fathom why
@kareemwilson8426 Definitely something that made me wtf when I played lol. Hitting up a gym made up of lvl 10s while all my pokemon were at 60+ was humorous and disappointing at the same time.
Umbal
Um = one in Portuguese
Bal = ball…
Umbal= oneball…
Spoilers below:
The fact that you named your Pokémon after deserts not only fits your Ground team, but also fits the fact that the original gym leader deserted his post.
And the non-ground types were desserts
of all things to spoiler tag wtf lmao
@@itsOZoneit's Pokemon names and a plot point that is like the first thing you learn in the game 😂 I agree why the heck is it tagged as a spoiler
I dont mind the different content at all it was a good break from the nuzlocke format.
Heck I would love a vid or two trying another mon game, or find a way to nuzlocke them. I would love to see Dr HGs take on tackling Cassette beasts and its type chemistry system for example.
I tried to play through as a poison type specialist and eventually had to give up. unlike a lot of types there doesn't seem to be an "area" associated with poison types and I just couldn't get enough pokemon to keep my team afloat and keep running the gym. really cool concept for a game, I hope they keep working on it, haha. the idea that a gym leader is also a town's protector/custodian of sorts really appeals, so they have that going for them
Unironically the funniest part of this video was "TIME TO GET A WATCH" and no I won't explain if you didn't watch the sponsored section.
The game has potential but falls short on a few different occasions. I do hope that the dev(s) will continue to work on it
After a certain point it tends to get a little repetitive... Things kinda slow down.... Lack of good TMs is also quite frustrating especially for pokemon whose level up moveset really suck
I know this is supposed to make the game a little challenging. But TMs could still be made available in the late game maybe at rank 5 or so. A strong gym leader should have some coverage moves on their ace mons
This is a really cool concept! I wish the Pokemon Company were interested in making more experimental things outside their usual formula, imagine an official game with this premise.
.. have to disagree strongly. This is a very boring format.
They definitely can expand past the "kill 8 gym leaders, challenge elite four" and make unique and interesting storylines. But gym leader is not one of them.
"Both sides musteth grasp thy balls and fight with vigor and honor."
I can't 😂😂😂
I never skip flygonhg's sponsors cause I always love how he transitions into them lmao
I didnt realise this wasnt a nuzlocke so when the first KO happened i gasped in horror
Yeah weirdly non recoil chip damage does not work in this game. I found out through playing this game that you pokemon do not take Life Orb damage either.
That sounds busted
Do they still do the extra damage but just no recoil? If so that's pretty broken lol.
@Gohka Since I was able to one shot a Hydreigon with a Protean Ice move from Life Orb Greninja in this game, I'm fairly confident that you still get the power boost.
This video was my first exposure to this fan game and I was convinced you could name the city yourself. I thought Umbal was just too close to “one-ball” to be a coincidence, but I guess not.
I want to give this fangame a shot at some point and that's all thanks to your playthrough. I enjoyed watching you play this on stream. :D
Anyway, I would like to once again recommend a no stab moves run of Black / White. It's been officially one year since the last no stab moves run in Firered, so I think it would be cool to finally return to the challenge.
I'll also recommend adding an extra rule that you have to fight all optional trainers before each gym level cap, which is what I did and I think it helps add even more fun and challenge.
I'm LIVING. Give FlygonHG his flowers for this narrative performance and absolute GEM of a video.
Saturdays are good when flygon posts
I''ve yet to see FlygonHG properly using flygon without getting it killed. GarchompFJ, on the other hand...
I think the variety in content is great! Nuzlockes are fun for sure, but I really enjoy these types of videos as well (and the ones over on the highlights channel)
This was honestly a really nice break from the usual content, I really enjoyed seeing your personality being more of a focal point than in your usual videos where the focus is more on strategy and whatnot.
Never thought that Holzkern would become big enough to do sponsorships across the pond. Really nice brand, have been buying their watches for many years now.
Wow I was completely entertained throughout the sponsor segment. So good. "What's in the box" killed me
Hey Flygon, been watching fot a few years and while most of us came for the Nuzlockes I wholeheartedly believe that most of your viewers are staying for your narration, editing and of course personality. So I think you can branch beyond Nuzlockes or even Pokemon. Thank you for all the great content!
Heyyyy I've been following your RUclips channel for years, I have to say that you were already one of the best poketubers but now it looks like your editing skills got even better! And your jokes too became funnier, idk, it looks like you evolved a bit as a content creator! Please keep doing what you do and do that with your passion. Stay strong and avoid critical attacks!
Not gonna lie I’ve been watching for about a year or so, and really only use YT for nuzlockes. You’re probably my fave tuber and videos like this are so entertaining and funny. Thanks for brightening my days Dr 1ballHG
the idea of you branching out into different styles rather than only hardcore nuzlocke-style gameplay sounds like a great change of pace if it's something you'd rather do
I really appreciate this video because its simultaneously a super entertaining way to burn some time and a brutally honest but fair review of a romuack that wanted to but haven't had time tot try myself
i love it, this is great! you should absolutely play the occasional fangame.
This was really enjoyable to watch, and I always love the humor and storylines that you give the games. It's also really cool to see you try some of the fanmade Pokémon games, even if this one wasnt exactly to your liking
Honestly i really enjoyed this video, my favorite part about ur vids is the narratives you create and this one had a very entertaining one!!
Honestly, I really enjoyed you giving this a play on the main channel. I'd like to see more of this type of content!
It was great to see a different kind of content. I'd love to see more random/one off content like this.
Keep up the good work.
YESSSSS I WAS HOPING FOR THIS FLYGON TYSM!!!! can you do multiple type runs of this game? i love it so much!
Love the change of pace, would honestly like to see more rom hacks
Even though I am a main water type trainer and therefore wood is not my best friend, congratulations to the cooperation with Holzkern! Their products have really great designs.
Rumour has it Jacob is still putting in job applications to the gym to this very day
Man, I really enjoy videos like this. I love your usual nuzlock stuff but seeing other kinds of ROM hacks and stuff is really cool and nice change of pace. I didn't even know this was a thing until this video.
I absolutely love your videos. I'm getting laid off from my job in a couple weeks and I've been real stressed lately. Seeing you had a new video posted today was exactly what I needed!
Hope things get better for you, my scrow. Big ups
as a fan I think that this was an excellent choice for branching out. We appreciate all your efforts. Bless.
FlygonHG content on a saturday is such a blessing, love the vids as always.
This channel is the only time I look forward to the sponsorships the intro to them is flawless everytime😂
Fun way of telling the story. Especially for a game that (when I tried it) I didn't care much for.
Also didn't realize you and Dana were engaged so congrats there!
19:21 In this game the Aron line is a dragon type, So not only does wigglytuff have immunity to some of its moves, they get x2 Damage on top of a STAB
This is awesome! I’d love to see more story based pokemon content like these, the nurse joy romhack comes to mind.
I'm a big fan of your usual content, but I was thrilled to see this one. It's cool to see the branch out! I played a bit of this game and never finished it, so seeing it play out was nice. And I like the cut between the voice over and the streamed battles cut for time. It's a different flavor of video but a good one all the same.
Edit: wtf are all those numbers on the end of my username
I think variety Pokémon content is a great move for you. Your personality makes your videos unique and fun!
Heya pal, we always love the experimentation! I always feel like the best content comes from fulfilled youtubers, so you play what you want to play.
Sick video Flygon! It's nice to see you play things like these every once in a while!
Wow I love Atacama, I went there as a teenager and I really enjoyed the trip, so glad you named a Pokémon after such a memorable moment of my life. Greetings from Santee-Ago, Chile.
siempre hay un chileno XD
somos plaga bro
I have avoided watching other RUclipsrs play this because I've been waiting on the Flygon take!
Thanks for the PTSD to Pass and Review formations with the song during the Mega mind clip
i LOVED this video! you were so funny and even in the sponser section you were hilarious
I really enjoy this video Flygon, keep the great job
Adding more trainers to your gym increases the level of your challengers
Absolutely loved this content!! Keep it up!!
Something different from time to time is refreshing, great vid salamanceDK
Definitely a fun new thing to watch!
I enjoyed this playthrough-based Review of a fanmade Game! And I would enjoy more Videos in that Fashion!
I’ve seriously been waiting for you to play this game for months!!
Wasn’t my favourite flygonHG video but god damnit am I always here for the story 😂 don’t every change mr.oneball
who is gonna tell him he could have just gotten infinite money by continuously asking npcs for items since there isnt a trigger for if you already recieved one
Hey.... can u tell How to do this infinite money thing??
I keep talking to some NPCs but most of them always want things from me.
specifically when you get kidnapped, you can ask your captive for water or food, and you can keep asking them forever@@Svithi.N.98
Dying at the ad read. Matti really outdid himself! 😂 (also, hi from Finland)
Nuzlockes are all cool but keep these coming as well! loved it!
I love TGoM!! I really wish we got an official game like this. Something different from the usual gameplay loop we’ve gotten recently
this was fun :D your videos are always so entertaining so it's cool to see you're down to branch out of exclusively nuzlockes if it's something you also enjoy. digimon video for april fool's next ;3?
18:25 Sturdy wouldn’t of mattered since Haxorus had Mold Breaker
It's interesting how everyone I watched playing this game choose a different type!
I tried a bit, but yeah, it's true that the gameplay loop gets boring. I initially though I'd go water type, but decided for psychic at the last minute, because I grew up with Pokemon Blue, which I played over and over and over. And psychic was so OP in gen 1 that I always had a psychic type in my team (even though gen 1 doesn't have that much options). So, in memories of the good (well...) old days, psychic it was!
Yknow even if the Rom is a bit scuffed, I like your storytelling enough to get invested!
1:11 Not gonna lie, I was focussing on something else for a second and 100% thought you said 'mayor of ONEBALL city' 🤣🤣
So happy flygon has done this game!!!
as for the ideas of how to better the gym lider aspect, you can still focuse on your town, but more in the sense to make it appealing for trainers and bring more general income to the city.
for example, you can have a mode were you have a colosseum in your city, and npc can make bets against who will win, this battles could have gimmicks such as "the rival has a perma buff atk" or "all pokemon have a build in substitute."
im other words, making crazy challenges to suppas with your team and gain reputation.
you could also invite other pokemon gym liders and famous pokemon trailers and that could get you so much fame and reputation.
also random events to participate in the pokemon league?
all of the other ideas i vace seen are amazing, so this is my grain.
As someone who has completed playthroughs of TGoM with Bug, Ice, Dark, Ghost, Dragon, and Fire types, this game is an absolute blast to play, and the new typings for mons like the Aron and Onix lines are fantastic. I do wish that you would get team previews for the gym trainers that apply, and could battle them to help make them stronger.
yea, beating that Tyranitar trainer absolutely destroys the progression of the game. Source: me, twice.
Oh my god not Prison Break 😭🤣 in treatment, one of the coaches told us how much she loved that show and was just showing us all these things about it 🤣
grasp thy balls... holy text indeed
rly liking videos about playing fan games!! they feel fresher than the mainline series which is just beaten to death by this point
this was a really cool and refreshing video!
To be fair to the creator, the constantly fighting boring, underprepared trainers part is probably pretty realistic for what running a Pokemon gym would be like
Have you had a chance to look at Pokemon Crystal Legacy? Seems like a perfect game to nuzlock. It’s not too difficult in comparison to the vanilla games but it fixes a lot of the issues gen 2 had. Give it a go.
i really liked this video! great to see u try other kinds of roms!
I was freaking dying at 24:02, gods I needed that laugh so much
Holzkern = gifts from the wise men, confirmed by Dr. Oneball HG
@4:00 You got her good, Bro! 😂
Wait okay that sponsor is actually pretty cool! Will definitely check it out! We love you flygon!
i look forward to flygonhg upload day it's my favourite day of the week
Congrats on your engagement!!!
I went Ground-type too! Then I learned, at the time I played, sandstorm doesnt add. But ntl, it was fun! Havent finished the game, tho, yet.
Always a banger from you! Keep em comin brother!
Very enjoyable feel free to experiment like this more
You should do a nuzlocke on this
I appreciate you branching out and trying new types of pokemon games. This was fun and your take on it was good to watch!
More of videos like these! Perhaps a smant map randomizer rematch
