Thank you Bones!!! Appreciate you!! 💗 I was racking my brain on how to introduce the characters since they all joined at the same time, and that's how I came up with that intro scene!
There’s such a brilliant sense of nostalgia in your videos. I absolutely love it. Not only is there nostalgia in choosing the team of a beloved manga from your childhood, but even little things like mentioning rocket pops and SpongeBob ice cream pops. Thank you for this. Thank you.
The real issue with what he said is that all Jhoto starters at any level can learn the swords dance TM and in general 4 all learn a decent physical attack, Razor Leaf for Bayleaf, Bite for Croconaw, and Flame wheel for Quilava
Wow, the editing was really smooth and great! Sadly I couldn't join the streams but this is probably the best video you have made so far I still cant believe megaree was usefull
Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it! I'm trying to outdo myself with each upload so I can grow more as a content creator. And Megaree was probably #3 on our team solely because of Swords Dance and Synthesis! No more underestimating him!
As always, your video production quality is unmatched! I adore how you blended the manga storyline with the video, ans you played so well too! Only one death the entire run with such a limited team is incredible man, you’re definitely crazily underrated
Always in favor of any chance to see Chikorita get some love! While my attachment came more from the anime than manga appearances, I still see Chikorita as a personal favourite starter. Great job making not only a good narrative to follow in the nuzlocke itself, but also using the manga story in such a good way. Building up the tale of Crystal in a cool way.
Very nice! I wasn't sure about this take instead of the catching one, but it turned out nicely! On the next runs, I would recommend to set the level caps a little lower, like the last Elite 4 member's ace instead of the champion, cause it makes the E4 a little too easy, specially in these gen 2 games/remakes. Looking forward for the next one!
Finally best girls team! Happy to see you use it! I actually did a for fun play through with her team back in the day and it was super fun! Although gotta be honest I never knew Meganium could learn swords dance but that is a very useful strategy to consider! Either way love to that family makes me happy!
I've loved Chikorita ever since I saw it in the anime! ^-^ Great video, btw. You do a great job of storytelling and I love it when people use under-used Mons.
You’ve definitely improved my opinion of meganium, but I’m still a cyndaquill user all the way. Ash’s irritating Bayleef kinda ruined chikorita for me. Plus I’m that guy that just always uses the fire starter so therefore, cyndaquill is the best for me. Great video at the end of the day tho!
I haven’t watched the full video yet, but I’m excited to see the whole run! I briefly appeared to see one of the first loses to Bugsy, so I’m looking forward to seeing the redemption!
Love the vids! I had a question that you may have answered in the past but have you tried the few Pokémon Adventure Manga rom hacks? It would have been dope to see you playing with their exact teams in the proper order. I am aware not every character has a game nor are there's completed but it would have been interesting to see
Says he finds the intimidate growlithe on attempt but, it had the pokéball symbol next to it 👀 jkjk, love the content man! Keep grinding, and I cannot wait to see more!
I actually didn't know that about Silver's levels being lower in the fight during the Team Rocket takeover if he has Feraligatr. That's... interesting, lol! I decided to look it up after you mentioned it, and Lance's level 50 Dragonite always has a Sassy nature, which does boost special defense. (Red's Venusaur also has a Sassy nature, LMAO; would you believe that?)
the fire starter is superior to the grass starter in most games but especially in johto the fire starter ive never had an issue using cyndaquill against whitney, all you need is good speed, and either roll out or hit super hard with a charcoal boosted flame wheel, eventually thunder punch can cover the water weakness
Sometimes, if i can't get certain pokemon, I'll use eggs from a different game since i have both heartgold and soulsilver this makes this very easy especially since im doing a water only play through
Great video as alway Magnus, will you ever branch out into "Can I beat Pokemon ... using Ash's Anime team?" or side characters like Dawn, Brock, Misty, Paul, Gary.
I actually like Mr. Mime. He's just a goofy little guy! Also, he's one of like 3 special attacking users of Technician, and the only one with anything resembling a usable movepool to go along with it.
I'm surprised you didn't catch Suicune for the fight with Red, since Crys had that for a little while. Also, you can't breed two Jynx! They're 100% female! That aside, the Adventures manga is a lot of fun. The only thing that makes me sad is that everything after Unova is so rushed in order to keep up with GameFreak's new release schedule. The regions don't have time to breathe anymore because the manga has to start, climax, and conclude within a specific timeframe.
A random conpect I came up with that I decided to share here MissingNo attaches to a radom NPC and manages to glitch into modern gens bring shadow Pokemon with it hidden as shinies and takes advantage of game freaks laziness, torment whoever get the random roll and glitch 😅
Why on attempt #7, when looking for a Growlithe, the one you got had a Pokeball close to his name during battle? Isn't that supposed to happen only if you already had that Pokemon? And isn't one of the nuzlocke rules to catch only the first Pokemon of an area? Got confused about that
No worries! I probably should've explained it more in the video. I was streaming those attempts, and since it was all RNG if we would flee or catch the Growlithe, we saved after Chikorita and "reset" over the attempt so I didn't have to re-do all the changes to the rival's starter. So the Growlithe from Attempt #6 is why there was the Pokeball icon. I should've completely reset instead of releasing Growlithe #6. Starting on Attempt #8, I did a complete reset to make sure all future runs were completely legit (aside from the "glitch" to get Growlithe/Tyrogue)
Honestly if you could start with egg moves then Chikarita is in my honest opinion the best starter in gen 2 (original games especially). Sword Dance, Earthquake and Ancient Power (all free come from Maworak). This makes the early game trivial and by the time it should struggle it has enough bulk to boost, tank and then sweep. I think they gave it these egg moves to help with it's early game but forget that you can't breed until after the 2 gyms it struggles with. I do think it should have been given Ancient power at level 13, like they gave charmander metal claw to help against brook. But since you can catch 2 rock types before falkner they likely didn't see the need to.
We can call it that... More like Generic Female Grunt Sound #3😆 Appreciate you Fropsy!! Hope your Ogerlocke is going well! There may be new lore coming soon with the 2nd DLC!
"Catch two Jynx and breed them so they can hatch baby Smoochum?" Jynx is a female only Pokémon. Jynx can only breed with compatible male Pokémon or Ditto.
I left the video, and just came back Had to go back 10 seconds, because I thought I heard "d*ld*" instead of "still though" Anyways, really like this series, keep at it
LETS GOOOOOOO!!! MONLRRE MY GOAT GOT 3 KOS AGAINST RED . I REPEAT RED, truly a goated pokemon i mean he damaged shucune and beat registeel so what else to expect
Nice to see Chickorita getting some praise. Ive always had a soft spot for it.
ur literally the best nuzlocke channel for weaving manga inbetween the videos. smooth intro this time btw 🙏💯
Thank you Bones!!! Appreciate you!! 💗 I was racking my brain on how to introduce the characters since they all joined at the same time, and that's how I came up with that intro scene!
I really love the effort you are putting into this to be a entertaining nuzlocke and informing people on the great stories from the Manga
Thank you! The manga is criminally underrated and I'm glad I can share some of the best stories from it! Appreciate you being here 💗
the way you showed us the story between attempts was such an engaging and original way to go about editing this. such a fun video brother.
Thank you!! I had a lot of fun editing that part and crafting an engaging narrative. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@@magnuspkmn It was such an original and engaging way to format the video- would definitely love to see more like it in the future!
There’s such a brilliant sense of nostalgia in your videos. I absolutely love it. Not only is there nostalgia in choosing the team of a beloved manga from your childhood, but even little things like mentioning rocket pops and SpongeBob ice cream pops. Thank you for this. Thank you.
15:55 Well, Quilava can use Smoke-screen and the Dig TM (available in National Park) to break Miltank's Rollout and make it miss all her moves.
The real issue with what he said is that all Jhoto starters at any level can learn the swords dance TM and in general 4 all learn a decent physical attack, Razor Leaf for Bayleaf, Bite for Croconaw, and Flame wheel for Quilava
“I’ll prove that chikorita is better than cyndaquil”
*immediately changes the rules*
The chikorita line is a fine line. It just got screwed on the generation it got introduced. I like using it in non jhoto runs.
This. For real, if you swapped chikorita and treeko, treeko gets absolutely destroyed and chikorita dominates
Dude, this is legit!
Btw, I also used Jay Sans videos for gen 4 Rom Hacking.
Shout out to all the chikorita lovers out there! It's definitely my favorite Johto starter!
Wow, the editing was really smooth and great! Sadly I couldn't join the streams but this is probably the best video you have made so far
I still cant believe megaree was usefull
Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it! I'm trying to outdo myself with each upload so I can grow more as a content creator. And Megaree was probably #3 on our team solely because of Swords Dance and Synthesis! No more underestimating him!
As always, your video production quality is unmatched! I adore how you blended the manga storyline with the video, ans you played so well too! Only one death the entire run with such a limited team is incredible man, you’re definitely crazily underrated
Love how you give the manga some love, keep making such great videos
Always in favor of any chance to see Chikorita get some love! While my attachment came more from the anime than manga appearances, I still see Chikorita as a personal favourite starter.
Great job making not only a good narrative to follow in the nuzlocke itself, but also using the manga story in such a good way. Building up the tale of Crystal in a cool way.
As a chikorita user by default cuz it’s my fav starter: thank you for showing how good it can be
that roar + reflect strat was so sick! must have felt so good to defeat bugsy after so many attempts lol
Very nice! I wasn't sure about this take instead of the catching one, but it turned out nicely! On the next runs, I would recommend to set the level caps a little lower, like the last Elite 4 member's ace instead of the champion, cause it makes the E4 a little too easy, specially in these gen 2 games/remakes. Looking forward for the next one!
I love how often Nuzlockers wind up frustrated by how good Mr.Mime is. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
I love your videos man. They really stand out from all the other youtubers doing it with how you make it into a story. Please keep them coming
Wanna add one more comment, you really succeed at making your fanbase feel like a community, and I really like that about your channel.
you're really out here ending all the chikorita slander. Amazing video!
The manga splices and the genius Bugsy strategy made this one my favorite of the series!
Great video
I liked the narration you did for Crystal's backstory during the playthrough
RIP Ash's dad (Mimey) 😛
Finally best girls team! Happy to see you use it! I actually did a for fun play through with her team back in the day and it was super fun! Although gotta be honest I never knew Meganium could learn swords dance but that is a very useful strategy to consider! Either way love to that family makes me happy!
you hooked me in the first 10 seconds. what you did here is AWESOME, I'm STOKED
I've loved Chikorita ever since I saw it in the anime! ^-^ Great video, btw. You do a great job of storytelling and I love it when people use under-used Mons.
Thank you so much!! My favorite nuzlockes are ones where underrated Pokemon can shine, so I'm glad I could do these guys justice!
I love the coloring in the beginning of the video and the way the run played out! Loving the content!
Omg I LOVE how you edited this video with some parts of the manga!
You’ve definitely improved my opinion of meganium, but I’m still a cyndaquill user all the way. Ash’s irritating Bayleef kinda ruined chikorita for me. Plus I’m that guy that just always uses the fire starter so therefore, cyndaquill is the best for me. Great video at the end of the day tho!
You’re going to have a real bad time getting two jynx to breed
I knew I would find a comment some where 😂
Amazing strat for Bugsy! Big props to you!
It has been almost 8 years since I started playing pokémon and only today did I learn flash fire was not new to gen 8
Congrats on 10K! I just know you'll keep getting more!
This was your best video yet! Fantastic job!
I haven’t watched the full video yet, but I’m excited to see the whole run! I briefly appeared to see one of the first loses to Bugsy, so I’m looking forward to seeing the redemption!
Great content! Appreciate how well the manga weaves into the video
Finally Chikorita hype. Been waiting 17 years for days like these
Love the vids! I had a question that you may have answered in the past but have you tried the few Pokémon Adventure Manga rom hacks? It would have been dope to see you playing with their exact teams in the proper order. I am aware not every character has a game nor are there's completed but it would have been interesting to see
Very good video as usual! I especially loved the story telling in this one!
So glad I discovered your channel! Your content is a pleasure to watch. Thank you, MagnusPKMN!
its about time chikorita got her flowers
I love how you tell the stories! Amazing playing!
Great video as always, love the story telling in your runs. You might already know, but certain dates turn off the hail on Mt. Silver
Great video! Such a fun concept. RIP Mymee
Dude I really enjoy your manga videos and congrats for the 10k subs!!!
One of my favorite nuzlocke videos of all time
Says he finds the intimidate growlithe on attempt but, it had the pokéball symbol next to it 👀 jkjk, love the content man! Keep grinding, and I cannot wait to see more!
Loving these videos! Adding the manga scenes is just 👌😘 (chef's kiss) amazing work!!
I love that Koga got the Mantis Lord theme. It suits him
Hey you hit 10k, congrats!
Simply fantastic work
Well, it definitely looks like you’ll hit your 10,000 subscriber goal
I actually didn't know that about Silver's levels being lower in the fight during the Team Rocket takeover if he has Feraligatr. That's... interesting, lol!

sir, this is proof I hit the bell
also first
You're the best, NotASlimePanda! You're one of the OGs man I appreciate you so much❤
Holy shit, that subscribe feature is so dope lol
UNFORTUNATELY IT'S CHIKORITA? Dude what the heck thank you
Pokemon manga for ever
Heck yeah! Pokemon manga all day every day!!
I hit suscribe así you say it and it went all sparky on me, very accurate to a crystal run
I actually like Mr. Mime. He's just a goofy little guy! Also, he's one of like 3 special attacking users of Technician, and the only one with anything resembling a usable movepool to go along with it.
MYMEE NO
the sub animation worked 🤭 new sub hehe
I'm surprised you didn't catch Suicune for the fight with Red, since Crys had that for a little while. Also, you can't breed two Jynx! They're 100% female!

Your my favourite pokemon youtuber under 100000 but you deserve 100,000,000,
Every day is a great day when you post an manga Nuzlocke video!❤
I like the thumbnail!
A random conpect I came up with that I decided to share here
MissingNo attaches to a radom NPC and manages to glitch into modern gens bring shadow Pokemon with it hidden as shinies and takes advantage of game freaks laziness, torment whoever get the random roll and glitch 😅
You obviously haven't seen Mr. Stake take a flame kick to the face for only 1/8 his hp. No screens up either
It’s crazy that smoochum isn’t a friendship evo
You can get a firestone at the pokeathlon on Tuesday
Why on attempt #7, when looking for a Growlithe, the one you got had a Pokeball close to his name during battle?
Isn't that supposed to happen only if you already had that Pokemon?
And isn't one of the nuzlocke rules to catch only the first Pokemon of an area?

RUclips did indeed add an animation to the subscribe button
Oish Crystal team seem extremely hard to work with
Let's get Magnus to 10K!!
Voice acting? Nice!
We can call it that... More like Generic Female Grunt Sound #3😆
Appreciate you Fropsy!! Hope your Ogerlocke is going well! There may be new lore coming soon with the 2nd DLC!
"Catch two Jynx and breed them so they can hatch baby Smoochum?" Jynx is a female only Pokémon. Jynx can only breed with compatible male Pokémon or Ditto.
Great video, definitely team meganium
I left the video, and just came back
Had to go back 10 seconds, because I thought I heard "d*ld*" instead of "still though"
Anyways, really like this series, keep at it
fantastix video🎉
Uh magnus, I love chikorita but all the gen 2 starters learn the swords dance Tm at all stages and since that tm has existed have been able to
The Cyndaquil line doesn't learn it🤔
You're over 10k🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hey man what is the music you used in the Karen fight it sounded like TETRIS
LETS GOOOOOOO!!! MONLRRE MY GOAT GOT 3 KOS AGAINST RED . I REPEAT RED, truly a goated pokemon i mean he damaged shucune and beat registeel so what else to expect
Chicatrita was my first starter ever
GYATTT 😂😂😂 side note, your cute
I’m still not on team Chikorita, but this has at least shown me it isn’t as terrible as I remember it being.
Hey do another nuzlocke Pokémon x and y manga please thank you
FYI crystal deserved a dragonite also crystal is my favorite game
What about the Pokewalker to get Smoochum?
I have always been team chikorita, especially MR. STAKE!
You stream on Twitch or Yt❤?
Meganium >>> Typhlosion and Feraligatr 🙏🏼
That's his left eye.
Always be chikorita team! 🎉
Where do you grind to get such a high level for the elite 4?
AASHBS BRO I LVOE IT
Throwing pokeballs are overrated any way. Kicking is the new pokemon catching meta
I actually did this not too long ago with shinies
