@@erebosgodtechnically yes, but do you think there’ll be enough people with modded 3DSes and spoofed netcode just wonder trading away pokemon, I certainly have my doubts.
I love so much that the first run ended due to missing a 100% accurate move 3 times in a row even though there was no accuracy bullshit done by the other trainer. Truly unlucky/punished as Jan would say.
@@IronWolf123 The funny thing is that the first Z-Crystal you get, Normalium-Z, is the single missing puzzle piece to Alolan Rattata. It learns Focus Energy very early on and the Z-version of the move adds an accuracy boost to the boosted crit ratio. Meaning Hyper Fang gets STAB boost, Hustle boost with no drawback and a boosted chance to crit. That's a 180 power high-crit-chance attack at level 16. And even though its base accuracy is 90%, the accuracy boost is enough to not only negate the Hustle drawback, but additionally boost Hyper Fang to being effectively 96% accurate. You use a status Z-Move once and basically turn your main attack into a Z-Attack until you switch out. Sure, it's still just a Rattata/Raticate, but it annihilates most of the early-game with just one item. And I love it.
Braiden, you’re getting so good at script writing and hitting story beats. Absolutely loved the timing and edits and everything in this video. Fantastic work.
There is actually some good news in regards to the future of these online features! There's a project called Pretendo which is working on replica servers for 3DS and WiiU games. It's still a work in progress, but it's something to look forward to in comparison to what Nintendo has left for us 😭
@@TheBloves13 I mean, they are, and it's already happening. Nintendo isn't offering wifi services to these consoles anymore and have no intention to. We've already had fanmade wifi services for the DS + Wii for years now. I get wanting to be sceptical when Nintendo is such a nasty beast when it comes down to cracking down on mods and piracy sites but they don't really have a reason to step in here.
@@TheBloves13 Idk anything about Palworld but like I said, we have proof of these server replicas aren't something they care about. If they wanted to shut this kind of thing down they would have done it ages ago.
Also I remember my Ultra Necrozma strategy to get GUARANTEED that I would beat it instantly. What I did was have a Zoroark in slot one and a Toxicroak in slot 6 and somehow it tricked the AI in this battle to keep using psychic attacks that it had.
The Alola games are my favorites because I like the battles and the story. I get that some people don't like either cutscenes or difficult battles and therefore don't like the games as much, but I at least like people to appreciate that the games are good, even if not to their preference.
My favorite too. The atmosphere is great, and if the battles are “difficult” idk what to tell those people lol (I’ve literally done less than a dozen playthroughs of any pokemon game, I’m not good. If people are complaining they must be nuzlocking and therefore why the heck are they complaining about difficulty)
@@sociallyundead419 I saw a video once that used Lusamine as an example of both a great and a terrible villain because of how badly they changed her between games
sad to see these games closed their servers. My first ever nuzlocke was a soul link wonderlocke with my brother with Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. didn't finish but always wanted to. Also One of the earliest activities my now wife but then friend and I would do was wonder battle. This is where we catch and trade a full team and wondertrade then battle with whoever showed up. 95% of the time this a team of 5 egg rejects and one good pokemon. miss it.
IIRC, there is actually a semi-reliable strat to deal with Ultra Necrozma in a nuzlocke. Get the Totem Araquanid from Samson Oak, teach it Mirror Coat, give it a Focus Sash, and pray Ultra Necrozma doesn't use Smart Strike. Obviously not applicable in a Wonderlocke like this, but thought I should still mention it.
Bro. MVP Duo H and M. The art right before the E 4 fights was so good. Happy little H with the confident and reserved M. Love the art of the rest of the team as well. Ultra Beast T was such an unexpected GOAT

@@BenjaminBroom-n4r Yeah, but that requires hacking the 3DS and that's kind of a grey area, it makes the console 100% better, but Nintendo frowns upon it.
I’ve somehow never come across this channel despite my love for pokemon. Lovely video, I’ll probably start putting your videos on while I sleep, you have a good voice and don’t scream (the later one is somehow rare among pokemon RUclipsrs…)
When they make remakes of the alola games I really hope they trim down the cutscenes. This was my first game so seeing people hate on it so much because it has a lot of cutscenes makes me so sad
i love these games and their stories play a big part in that, people who find it annoying just don't care much about the plot i guess even though it's an rpg
i find it super charming as im replaying currently, but if i were to restart anytime soon, the cutscenes would just feel sluggish ): legit why i didnt replay scarlet, the beginning is so slow i straight up dropped the game entirely lmao
Bro, I'm only 3 minutes into the video and he's already shit on the game so much, and that makes me sad. People will complain about Pokemon games having no story, when so many fans legit just mash through the dialogue
There *are* some fan games it's theoretically still possible to wonderlocke. Mind you the main one I know of is Pokemon Reborn, and good luck trying to get any sort of -locke done in that game, I could barely beat it even without permadeath.
Oh my gosh! After 2 hours I finally breed 1 Impressive seedot with the minimum stats I was looking for. But it's female, darn-but high stats means I can use THIS pokemon to breed Impressive seedots more often. Giving me much better chances for a high stat Shiftry with Sunny Day and Solarbeam.
I remember when this game came out I bought it because I thought it was going to be a sequel. I pretty much just grabbed my special rockruff and never touched it again when I realized it was a remake. Honestly, still the strangest move the pokemon company has done. Will admit though ultra necrozoma's battle theme slaps.
At first I was a little sad about the hating on the cutscenes; but then I remembered this is the Ultra version, and they messed with the story. Nevermind, hate away.
@@micahelsgames7024 no it doesn’t. Because 1. It’s not your character using it 2. You don’t press a button to use it so it’s not you irl using it either 3. It’s quite literally scripted as a tutorial. If you count that as “using a mechanic” then that Pokémon that the trainers always teach you how to catch by catching it themselves would count as your first encounter on that route. But no one plays like that.
I'm sure he's not saying this just because nintendo no likey but eventually Pretendo WILL revive the pokemon games online functions. X and Y are already being worked on.
HOLD ON!!!! A WONDERLOCKE MAY STILL BE POSSIBLE AFTER THIS!!!! Okay, The pokemon Bulbapedia CLEARLY states that a Wonder trade is a trade during the 3DS Pokemon games that aloows players to RANDOMLY trade pokemon, Now key word being "Randomly". Though it is NO LONGER called a "Wonder Trade" They DO still exist, in the form of Surprise trades, in games such as Scarlet and Violet, and Sword and Shield (Though from my experience sword and shield surprise trades take awhile to go) So TECHNICALLY it COULD still be possible
As someone who has played Ultra sun for two years of my life, I discovered that yes; totems have a high critical hit rate as that stat is always going to be boosted; the higher your accuracy, the more of the hidden stat of getting a successful critical hit raises; this surprisingly isn't well known but this is a tid bit from another player who gave up on the game after beating the entire story and almost finishing a shiny dex that has full odds encounters without a shiny charm
I have started a wonderlocke in Ultra Moon on December 3rd 2022 and was going to do a wonderlocke of Alpha Sapphire after completing Ultra Moon but I completely forgot about doing Alpha Sapphire.
I'm certainly miss 3DS Wonderlockes, they were my favourite way to play Gen6 (because who'd be insane enough to replay gen7?), but at least gen8 wonderlockes are still a thing (does gen9 have wonder trades? I assume so, but I don't trust gen9 to have actually kept beloved features from previous Pokémon games lol)
I am hoping that when they eventually remake these games in 15 something years, they implement the SwSh skip cutscene function. Unironically would be an amazing game without the sheer amount of cutscenes.
@@GSamus14 except the SwSh skip cutscenes function was still awful cause it only technically skipped like 3 cutscenes in its own game, it would realistically skip less in USUM
"Cutscenes" and "Story Flags" are [apparently] different things in pokemon. Judging by the # of things skipped in Sw/Sh, "Cutscene" just refers to when the game takes control away from you to run through a scripted video. It does nothing to the many, MANY times you have to press through an unskippable river of compulsory dialogue and story beats
@@liberalistbat6352depends on how you play it. I used only 6 pokemon in my first playthrough and I powered through everything on an increasingly overleveled team with almost no issue. On my second [& thus far only other] playthrough I tried to keep to the enemy levels with a wide variety of pokemon and found it annoyingly difficult in multiple places.
@@liberalistbat6352 Yeah no. Not by a long shot. If you're playing casually and not prepared, many of the battles will wreck you. Ultra Necrozma is the obvious one, but the Totems can be difficult to. Especially Araquanid. Even with hindsight the games can still be difficult in a nuzlocke setting. I could maybe understand someone arguing that they're not THE hardest, but trying to claim they're easy is just plain foolish.
For the water trial in my nuzlocke, I just taught thief to one of my Pokémon, took its berry, let the pokemon die to get a clean switch, then eletrocute the totem. 16:23
You kept saying its the last wonderlocke but they still have wonder trades in later games but most are called surprise trades but work the exact same, so it's just the last 1 for that gen.
I loved Wonderlockes; I didn't realize they discontinued the services for 3DS, damn. I hope they re-introduce wonder trades in the future, they're super fun.
I actually did an Ultra Moon wonderlocke before the servers shut down and I ended up getting a breedject Drampa as my starter and he was packing Hurricane
@@BJGvideos A game can have a very bad balance of story to gameplay ratio, and Sun/Moon along with Ultra Sun/Moon don't balance it well enough. Or don't give fast enough text. So it makes it feel like it goes on longer than a person's expectations. A good example of this bad balance is Xenogears. It has very long segments of gameplay and then very long segments of story. The story is great, but it could have been balanced better.
@@SuperSSSSooonniicccc Idk I like games with huge stories. And then I could wander around a beautiful island and fight monsters as long as I wanted before proceeding.
@@BJGvideos I meant of taking away player choice to move on or not. Sure games like Xenoblade are fine since they let you spend as much time as you want before moving on and have very long cutscenes. The problem is when you force a player to sit there for too long. XC2 Torna shows this off, by forcing too many sidequests just to beat the story. That goes too far. I did 100%, but for a casual player that isn't very nice of a game to do.
what if I watch the video twice tho
Idk

Not even two minutes into the video and my birthday has been featured on the video!!
I wish I knew this type of nuzlocke existed before the online shut down. I will have to attempt it in sword and shield!!!
Good luck if you try it!
I loved Wonderlockes; I didn't realize they discontinued the services for 3DS, damn. I hope they re-introduce wonder trades in the future, they're super fun.
this nuzlocke: shows up on my homepage at least 5 times
I actually did an Ultra Moon wonderlocke before the servers shut down and I ended up getting a breedject Drampa as my starter and he was packing Hurricane
I can never see my Incineroar again...I shouldn't have lost it. I am VERY sad, that was my first pokemon game.
19:29 that Walter white is actually very impressive
I had this exact wonderlocke situation with alpha saphire
Spinarak the GOAT!! Truely the MVP!
If I Watch this video again, I can see this nuzlocke again.
Aw yeah, Captain Kidd upload. Time to procrastinate my really easy homework, this is more important
Just because speed up isn't a thing in game doesn't mean we can't get speedup watching the video...
This video really proving the pokemon players hate reading allegations huh
I don't know why people play a JRPG and want to skip over the story. That defeats the purpose!
@@BJGvideos A game can have a very bad balance of story to gameplay ratio, and Sun/Moon along with Ultra Sun/Moon don't balance it well enough. Or don't give fast enough text. So it makes it feel like it goes on longer than a person's expectations.
A good example of this bad balance is Xenogears. It has very long segments of gameplay and then very long segments of story. The story is great, but it could have been balanced better.
@@SuperSSSSooonniicccc Idk I like games with huge stories. And then I could wander around a beautiful island and fight monsters as long as I wanted before proceeding.
@@BJGvideos I meant of taking away player choice to move on or not. Sure games like Xenoblade are fine since they let you spend as much time as you want before moving on and have very long cutscenes. The problem is when you force a player to sit there for too long. XC2 Torna shows this off, by forcing too many sidequests just to beat the story. That goes too far. I did 100%, but for a casual player that isn't very nice of a game to do.
Durant was the true star player
For lurantis you could've used flyium Z
this was LEGENDARY
