If you mash both games lore together you realize that Arven was an orphan for a good chunk of his life and just thought he had terrible parents when they were literally both murdered
Well, they were kind of terrible anyway. One let their passions turn to obsession to the point of planning to usher in a new world order, the other walked out (presumably due to disagreeing with the specifics of said order; past vs. future). Of course which one did which depends on the version.
@Bang me Chan you need to be thrown in jail

I think most everyone realizes that nurse Joy has betrayed them when they get pointed to the ground titan.
Nurse Joy pointed me to the ground titan after I only finished the first badge and the Bombirdier titan & it made so much sense at the time bc it was all in the same general area.
I managed to somehow beat the ground titan but ended up wiping to a random trainer on the way to Cascarrafa before realizing something was up 🥲
@@cailin9601was it the trainer who says he is selling something? Caught me off guard with an underlevelled team
Effective but terrible marketing strategy
For me it was Tulip's gym. I ran past every pokemon in the cave leading up to that town, only for Nurse Joy to say, "nah you're good, you can take on the gym."
Remember, this is the woman who says 'Hope to see you again!' after healing your battering and beaten team. At this point it's an inescapable fact that she's a sadist.
Fun fact! A journal entry you find from Sada somewhere alludes to her husband having just run off at some point, the implication being that that was this universe’s version of Turo. I assume this is the same but reversed in Violet. In case anyone needed ANOTHER reason to feel bad for Arven.
It is indeed reversed in Violet.
Turo also calls Sada "that woman".
@@deathcon6261 I’d also call someone “that woman” if she abandoned our kid tbh
@@froggy5748 I mean he then went to do the same thing soo 🥴 both professors are dogshit parents
"Theres beauty in simplicity, and this is just two mice" had me CACKLING because that so beautifully sums up why tandemaus/maushold is my fav new pokemon
Things that happened to Arven throughout Scarlet/Violet (Using Scarlets story rather than constantly putting "Sada/Turo")
-Turo abandoned him when he was a baby
-Hurt Doggo
-Sada was so focused on her work she didnt have time for Arven
-Sada gets stuck at the bottom of the Crater
-Sada gets f*cking murdered by the secondary legendary
-AI Sada pretends she is still alive
-AI Sada never bothers with Child Support
-AI Sada never tries to contact Arven
-The player character is in constant contact with the mom Arven was missing his whole life throughout the story
-When he finally speaks with his mom, she says she's been trying to reach him. . . *because he has keys to her lab*
-Arven finds out his mom died
-His Robo Mommy says that his mom loved him in her voice
-He watches his robo mom get launched into the distant past without getting the chance to have a single real conversation with her
-AFTER FINDING OUT ABOUT ALL OF THAT, Director Clavell mentions how he doesn't have enough credits to graduate and better start studying his ass of *in front of the champion and his 3 friends* (WTF CLAVELL)
-He then proceeds to get his butt kicked in the Academy Ace tournament the second he goes up against you
This poor kid needs therapy ffs, poor little guy, I loved him so much through the story
Arven was my favourite friend in this game. He needs the love.
arven truly felt like your real friend/rival. nemona was the classic rival where they feel a little more shallow and are just there to pose a challenge (but they gave you a reason as to why she's like that sort of) and penny pretty much only pushes the school plot line along. arven connects with you the most, warms up to you, shares personal stuff to you, and really grows to be a good friend who cares about you and who has the most reason to be there at the end. i loved arven
Fr i didnt want to beat him
"I'm an adult and this type of happiness doesn't grow on trees anymore"
And I felt that way too much.
Only diehard FlygonHG fans will remember the counter incident with Slakoth in the Normal Monolocke run.
One of the most tragic and hilarious deaths
Was that in Emerald?
That Slakoth you're talking about it's like death. You can run, you can wait, but eventually someone will die due to this.
I lost my Swellow due to this infamous strategy.
Poor Tom, never stood a chance with the terror and might of a random slakoth.
RIP Swellow
For anyone wondering, amapola means poppy, HIS DOGS NAME
Noooo
Noooooo!!!
Wha-……. I- *tears intensify*
RIP NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I thought amapola meant hibiscus 🤔
It's genuinely hilarious and sad how Arven gets absolutely shafted by the story
I don't think it's hilarious at all tbh. He has such a rough emotional story.
It's not an RPG unless at least one character suffers traumatic parental death
And I also know when he went into Area Zero so he can help his parent with their research, he got attacked by a Paradox Pokemon and it's why Masbosstiff suffered those injuries and the motive for why he wanted to find those herbs
@@utatanepiko7087 not only did he suffer a traumatic parental death, he was also neglected his entire childhood and his other parent that didn’t die literally just abandoned him
@@froggy5748 I know that. I also played the entire story. I was making a joke
38:46 - "But last for Geeta is Glimmora" - Oh he doesn't know, does he?
"And I have no idea what this thing is" - Ah geez
"For all I know he could terastalise into a completely random type anyways" - He's gonna Torch Song, isn't he?
"I go for the kill with a plus 3 tera-boosted Torch Song" - Jalapeno, no...
Larry is a very interesting 2d character, he's a normal guy, with 2 jobs (one of 8-4 (gym leader) and other 4-10 pm (E4)) and he's dead inside
I love that you call Skeledirge the coolest fire type evolution. It has gotten some.... mixed reviews from other poketubers. Good to see the design gets some love
I just don't understand how anyone could gaze upon Skeledirge and not love its design. But whatever. To each their own.
Fr! He just looks so fuckin cool
@@zanyraccoon6361 it looks bald.
I was underwhelmed when my pawmo evolved to be honest. But then the little guy proved an invaluable ally to catch pokemon thanks to nuzzle and by the time I finished the game I realized I never left him out of any of my teams. I'm now very attached to him, such a good boy.
I honestly just think the whole line would be better if pawmo was deleted and it was just pawmi and pawmot. Something else after that would be cool too
I honestly don’t like the rodent and I have two of them in shiny. Since you seem to be a fan I can trade you one if you want.
I like it. It's nice to see a pikachu clone, that isn't JUST a pikachu clone. I'm glad it evolves twice, even if it doesn't change much- in fact I kind of prefer that its appearance doesnt change drastically. Pawmot might be my favorite electric rodent in the series, tbh
@@ALookInto587 Thank you so much for the offer! I already have a shiny pawmi I found while roaming around the map, but that one stays in the box, he's just for show. My pal, champion of paldea, destroyer of time machines, Focaccia the reliable partner is a normal pawmot and I wouldn't have it any other way.
@@davveromeliloto4306 Alrighty, I do have a similar thing with one of my Tauros(even though I did end up hunting the shiny, due to it being my favorite Pokémon, but it never was the same as the Tauros I had for multiple gens at that point.
Since you lost quite a few Fire-types at the beginning(Charcadet, Scovillain), how about a Fire Monolocke to give those pkmns another chance of glory?
This would also allow the use of the Fire/Fighting Paldean Tauros Form
One of the few times Houndour/Houndoom is possible without eggs too, since it's usually post-game.
Another chance to let Fuecoco die again?
Let's do it
In the defense of AI Sada, if she didn’t send herself to the past, Paldea would’ve eventually been overrun by ancient Pokémon, and she did at least give Arven a little closure.
Yeah the choices were go to the past, let time machine keep running, or kill herself to stop it, soooo ultimately probably the least terrible option
She also reveals that she has the same thoughts and emotions as the original. But is never able to call him "Son" or tell him "I love you" directly. I theorise that both her not making contact and traveling to the past is the AI's way of running from the confrontation, fearing that Arven would reject her as she is a "fake".
Wouldn't Sada still be alive then..? it is an AI that cant die.. and the fact that it lasted years without running out of battery means it probably runs off some sort of infinite energy supply.. meaning as long as AI Sada wasn't destroyed.. it should have technically lived all the way up to the time the game takes place again... even though its thousands of years.
Or I am just stupid and tired because I am typing this at 3am
@@NotTheDragon837 She needs to be in area zero to live. The technology used to make her is impossible without those tera crystals that encase the lab. So it’s likely that at most she lasted a few minutes in the past before shutting down. That is, unless the past works differently for whatever reason.
@@cryolitegem or she lands directly in Area Zero with enough tera crystals to sustain her.
Arven really does get done so dirty, which only makes his resolve to prove himself as your friend in post-story content even more commendable. Of course helped by his adorable relationship with Mabosstiff.
Calling her Al instead of A.I. absolutely killed me
FINALLY, a nuzlocke that actually goes all the way to the true final battle! So tired of everyone else only doing the pokemon league story! Please keep ending your nuzlockes of Scarlet/Violet at the credit roll!
The ones that stop at Geeta annoy me so much. Not least because they then go on to complain that the final fight is underwhelming. You haven’t even finished the quest line!
How dare you make me choose between all my friend-shaped Gen IX children
That said, wanted to drop off a comment bc you're easily my favorite Nuzlocker on the youtubes, and watching every one of your videos brings me tons of joy. It's become my weekend ritual to sit down, load up the FlygonHG video, and plan out my upcoming week. Thanks for all your wonderful content, Dr. HG, and wishing you a wonderful day, week, month, and (rest of the) year!
You should definitely continue to battle against final boss after the champion in future runs, that's the coolest part of the game imo
I agree
I also agree!
not too mention being more difficult than Geeta's team
definitely agree
It's really cool, but you need to get through a lot more (at times a little tedious) content just for one fight. And if you do it every time, its magic might wear off.
Arboliva and espathra are my 2 favorites from the new gen. Great vid as always 👌
Oh, it's the funny showdown guy
I’d love if Snow boosted Ice types defenses AND retained the chip damage. To make it more like Sandstorm
I did too at first, but sandstorm is a bit less punishing for your own team because it doesnt damage your steel and ground types, hail damages everything not ice so your non-ice types are getting hit each turn as well as the opponent. Maybe if it didnt damage water and... I dont know fire types or something it would be ok to keep the chip damage
@@Tarudizer yeah maybe they could remove damage on water and fire to balance it out. Or remove Sandstorm damage
@@Tarudizer It synergizes well with Magic Guard Pokémon who get Blizzard… in other words literally only Clefable
@@murarmight The most logical types to ignore hail chip are Ice (already did), Fire (heat melts snow), and maybe Water (ice and water are both h2o?). Both of those have a dedicated weather (sun and rain respectovely), so being usable in three of four weathers would be odd.
Gamefreak just felt like Sandstorm shouldnt have a potential competitor
*Raidlocke*. Throughout the game, at any point you want, you can enter one raid per Tera type. You can pick the type, of course, since you can see it on the map, but you don't know what Pokémon it's gonna be and there's no backing out once you check the crystals. It's essentially a built-in randomizer, except you can pick the Tera type for an incoming challenge. For example, if you want to challenge Kofu the Water Leader, you can get your Grass Tera encounter - but it might turn out to be, say, a Charcadet. You never know.
Not going up to the Way Home final boss in future nuzlockes would be a mistake imo, it's certainly more of a 'final boss' in difficulty than anything else in the game
I’m absolutely living for the reactions in this video. They’re all so pure.
I’d love a tier list of all the Paldean Pokémon from you!
"Enough friendship for an after school special" love one liners like these
Last time I came this early to anything my girlfriend broke up with me
That’s probably on you mate, you should really learn to wait until people die before coming to their funeral
@@Poketom-ob1dl well that's when you speed up the process a bit with a magical item that shoots things
@@bigpoggers6507 a gun!
Lol
This comment is something else
"He also has a blind dog that's dying but after eating a ton of weed he's better now"
"Smoke weed every day"
-Snoop "Mabostiff" Dogg
The Pawmi line is so flipping adorable to me, even though their evo's are... simple, I still adore them. I also love Espathra and Dondozo
I loved the Phineas and Ferb reference with the 2 nickels joke.
Blinding evolving the dung beetle Pokémon into the scarab was one of the coolest experiences. I loved not having everything spoiled 😍
"Logically, she points us in the direction of the ground type titan"
Oh no
Between Flygon, KeeganJ, Antlerboy and AndrewCollette, I found a way to enjoy watching Nuzlocke videos at a time when I never really watched them before.
I haven't beaten the game yet, but my favorite Pokemon is a tie between Meowscarada and Tinkaton, personally. Meowscarada is a great final evolution for my favorite starter, and Tinkaton just looks like a DnD character I have. Multiple actually. Plus a few non-DnD characters.
I really like Giant Hammers okay?
BIG HAMMER GO SMASH
The start of this game was pretty miserable but the mid game in endgame as some of the best Pokémon has to offer
The courier boy before the first gym is evil. NEVER BATTLE THAT GUY. I swear his Mudbray and two other mons will wipe you if you are not prepared lmao
Glad to see Flygon didn't try to fight him.
It's also noteworthy that the Elite Four and Champion, as far as I know, WILL NOT HEAL.
This game is so weird, because there are some genuinely tricky encounters (Like some of the Team Star bosses, just for their teams/what moves/abilities their cars have), some cleverly designed terastalizing (Iono), and then they don't give the Elite Four any healing items.
I noticed that none of the gyms or elite four have held items either!
@@amblonyxx I mean, that's pretty standard for most mainline titles. I think B2/W2 challenge mode is the only time Gym Leaders/E4 used held items.
@@Iris_1217 BDSP did it as well. Actually, in an ironic twist, it's the only time where most of the Gym Leaders have held items on the whole team.
"Protect reveals he's going for Rage Fist, whatever that is, but I assume it's a fighting type"
*Me, who watched Pimpnite do a Rage Fist sweep last week* "Oh buddy, it's not."
*My wife who overheard everything laugh-sobbing as he queus the sad music*
This game has such a good story. One of the best storylines in pokemon BY FAR. i just wish it was better quality.
its a fire, its a god damn blaze in the dark and YOU STARTED IT
another great video from you, as always! it's particularly fun seeing your reactions to the new Pokemon. glad to know you're a fellow Tandemaus/Maushold/Maushaus fan 😎
Being a massive dragon type fan and knowing bagon was very early accesable in violet I want to see a drago type omly
Being spanish and trying to figure out what ur names actually meant was pretty hilarious, ur pronuntiation was on point
"I'm an adult and this kind of happiness doesn't just grow on trees" that so depressingly accurate. And I love your decision on using any of the new pokemon. idc if it violates standard rules, I don't have this game and I wanna see all these new little cuties. And I also love watching people do nuzlockes so, two birds one stone...yanno ;)
WASN'T EXPECTING THE FIRE EMBLEM REFRENCE BUT I'M HERE FOR IT
Had to wait until I had beaten the game before I could watch this... now I've done both and that was such a blast of a video! Thanks for the fun watch!
“Honk honk horsey” was such a meta reference. I love it
Greavard became my favorite gen 9 pokemon the moment it was revealed and that hasn't changed a bit after seeing the full dex. A lot of the paradox forms definitely shot up on my overall favorites list as well.
I agree that every Pokemon would be better, with a hat. (Also evil nurse joy is evil)
my favourite new pokémon has to be clodsire. it’s adorable, it’s friend shaped, and i found a shiny wooper in the first thirty minutes of my nuzlocke
Amity pfp spotted
I love amity
Awesome video! You should definitely try doing monotype challenges in Scarlet and Violet. There's quite a lot of variety with each type in the Paldea region so I feel like you'll get to use a lot of interesting Pokemon!
Dude I loved this game so much. And I loved watching this nuzlocke! Great content!
Bramblin/Brambleghast are my favorite new 'mons and I cannot explain what it is about them. Hard to pick a favorite though, I absolutely loved all the new ones
Those Dundunsparce jokes were on point!
Had me rolling on the floor. Hahahaha
The thrown in "head to Garreg Mach Monastery" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love me some 3 Houses!
17:09 you literally had a pokemon with water absorb on your team during that fight... no deaths were excusable.
i thought it had poison point
I kinda wish the gym leaders had an ace of their type, but used terastellation to get a better type matchup vs their usual weakness. For example giving the bug leader a Vespiquen with tera water or tera rock to counter fire and/or flying types.
I'd love to see a "boss's aces" only run. In this game, you're only allowed to use pokemon that other trainers at some point terastallize, but it wouldn't be that hard to figure out aces for any other gen's bosses. Or maybe inversely, only pokemon used by bosses, but their aces are banned to make it harder? Either way, thanks for the video!
So Arven has no father, no mother, his other robotic parental figure leaves him too and had his best partner dying.
Game Freak, story purposes aside, that's too harsh for our boy Arven.
watched this live - loved watching it again in this format, much love Dr Flygon
I found your channel yesterday because youtube recommended it to me, and I gotta say. I really like your narration! I find myself on the edge of my seat while watching your videos
Your narration gives me life! I loved watching the VODs then seeing it all come together in your overview! :) Thank you!
Dawg gen 9 introduced so many absolute winners. Looooove the starters, tinkaton, lokix, annihilape, and waaaaaaay more. Hell Maushold migh be my favorite normal type
Clicked on the video because of the distinguished gentleman - Long live clodsire
I can understand skipping videowise the other stories, but please still beat the titans, team star, and end game stuff since the end game fights are so good! Especially the last Nemona fight.
your nuzlocke shouldn't end at the champion fights, it ends after the credits roll / the final fight (even if its staged partly)
I’d say my favorite new Pokémon is probably Garganacl. I love the evolution line in general, and it’s an actual good pure rock type!
i was waiting for this :D i'm so glad this video came out
if you ever choose to do another hardcore nuzlocke in this game, i think a bird-themed nuzlocke would be fun because of the type diversity.
love the video!! dachsbun has been an integral part of my team and probably is my strongest pokemon behind iron hands LOL
I fricking loved this game and I'm glad you had a good time with it too! It needs some polish in bug fixes, level scaling, etc, but it's a very interesting game that I hope strongly influences future pokemon games. IMO it's just perfect for challenge runs too.
Also please understand, Nurse Joy sending you to your death is no surprise. Since the early games she's told us she hopes to see us again. She's thrilled when you come back injured!
I’m so enamoured by the Spanish names you’ve given all of them. Also your pronunciation of all the names is impeccable! Wonderful justice to the Paldea region!
So you're telling me the deadbeat mom was actually just dead the whole time ?
As someone who hasn’t beaten the game yet due to a full time job with a dash of college; thanks for making this spoiler free.
The video isn't spoiler-free, the "spoiler-free" bit just means he played through scarlet without looking at any spoilers.
got goosebumps watching the battle with the AI again, best ending to a Pokémon story ever

- cult of dos

Ahh, honk honk horsie. The colloquial cousin to beep beep pony
I love your nuzlockes so much, great to watch!!
I was having a bad day, but now that flygon has uploaded a new video, I am still having a bad day but at least I get to watch a really cool dude butcher Pokémon names!
Fuecoco the legend
@@UltaFlame you the legend man
Hello Paldean starter.
@@heinzdoofenshmirtz8643 I want rare candy
:(
Tinkaton. The Hammer is joy
You are darn right about that happiness...it's few and far between! Gotta go with it whenever the opportunity presents itself!
Dude!! As always amazing stuff. You are truly the reason why I started hardcore nuzlocking in the first place and I think its probably fair to say that countless others started from watching your streams as well. Your content is only a small piece of who you are and most of us see the hard work you put in to satisfy our crazy needs. It also helps knowing that your passion for the Pokemon franchise is genuine which makes your vids all the more enjoyable.
With that being said, proud of you too for standing up for yourself and not allowing these key blade warriors to bring you down. I just got into ultra running quite recently and tbh, im getting fairly good at a quick rate. in the beginning I would negative comment after negative comment, EVEN on my race WINS! Over time though, I've learned(and by watching you and some of my other fave poketubers out there) that those people are ignorant and do not know what it takes to be a true ultra and/or Pokemon master. Keep up the good work man and looking forward to the next one(ok but preferably a bug monotype nuzlocke first ijs) lmao.
Really appreciate the approach you are taking to this. Only thing i can say is I hope for more frequent uploads for this series!
The real villain of this game was Chat, the Spoiler Titan
Dunsparce's evolution actually fits it's dorky ass inspiration because dunsparce is based on an alcoholic snake dragon that is super fat and round because it's consumed way too much sake (a kind of japanese alcohol). Giving it a goofy evolution makes sense and I love it.
What?? Dunsparce is based on the Tsuchinoko..it has no relevance to "alcoholic dragons" from what I can find?? They're just chonky venomous snakes, it says they're fond of sake but not that they're round because of it. They're actually quite terrifying in the folklore (despite their thicker bodies seeming "goofy" now-a-days)..they could jump very high, were quite nimble, and their bite deadly.
19:58 shout out to all the death of a salesman fans
Personally I think Nuzlockes should end at the Nemona fight (or Area Zero), cause tbh the Greeta fight is really lackluster compared to the final rival battle.
I caught that FE3H reference Dr. HG, you can’t hide from me
That was something I liked too.
Veluza, the best designed FE3H
The fight changing and the music coming in at 28:11 was really cool!
Missed opportunity of renaming dos into quatro
Milmiltank had me rolling 🤣. Thank you for that!
Two of my absolute favorites this gen are Flamigo and Tatsugiri
Outstanding content as always! Cant believe you had such an easy time with the post game content, i was on the struggle bus for sure in my first playthrough, i did a blind nuzlocke too, and wiped to a random trainer before learning you can run from them.
Great video as always! As for my favorite Gen IX Pokemon, it's got to be Tinkaton, can't get enough of that menace to society!
I think I’ve come across your channel about a year ago now and it’s save to say you’re my favorite poketuber and i can’t wait for you to hit millions of subscribers so everybody can enjoy these videos
Ngl that wooper drawing is actually adorable
I had to do a double take when you referred to Naranja Academy as "Garreg Mach Monestary". I did not expect you to have played Fire Emblem before.
my game crashed right after Tulips gym challenge... only crash I've had so far too, and my last save, was right before the challenge.
I literally just saw that, looked tulip in the eye, and flew away to go take out every single other gym leader I had left instead.
Love the drawings of your mons I've seen people do that yet again amazing work man
Just noticed that the drawing has gotten so much better compared to the start! Excellent visual memory training
"Garreg Mach Monastery" Hell yeah, that's amazing
