For anyone wondering why skuntank was able to poison Mochi while he was underground,Toxic can’t miss when used by a poison type. Same thing happened in Austin Johns Let’s Go Nuzlocke
god i love how this isn't just a challenge run but a actual story you're making. It reminds me of how in jaiden's platinum nuzlocke video she made a split timeline story, and here you're making something a lot deeper I love it so much.
I like to imagine that Eternity is the Iron Valiant AI Turo used in his fight against you that he had left behind on his way to the future, and Moxie-kun & Mochi both helped it realize that it can act freely and protect people, ala E-102 "γ" from Sonic Adventure.
That's similar to what I did with my Iron Valiant, ARIA. But, on top of that, I also gave her her own lore. Before AI Turo plucked her from her time, ARIA was the leader and CEO of an organization/corporation called Techno Dusk. Predicting that humanity and Pokémon-kind would grow complacent and be eradicated by...something, she resolved to improve and optimize the Paldea region and everything living in it until she deemed it perfect, no matter how heartless her methods. So, my trainer, Vi Iridesca, holds onto ARIA in an effort to try and curb her callousness and instill a sense of compassion in her. An uphill battle, but one she's willing to fight.
I’m grinding to make my Iron Valiant Tera psychic for my vgc team bc I’m running stored power on it (the plan is to boost speed with agility and partner up with Alcreime and boost attack and Spartans with decorate.) so ig that’s fitting.
@@RandomHQ433 after finding out about the cut mew dialog from the first movie, I stand by the belief that mew was taunting Moxie-kun. Especially with the reveal at the end and how parallel it is to the clones from the first movie. It's in character.
i love the details you put in these videos. when i saw the mew in a picnic chilling in the background i thought nothing but ,,huh, whats mew doing there" but then... what a great video 10/10
Sheesh, another banger video from the Mox. Shame it ain't another movie, but oh well. Now things to point out: 1. The Mochi dying pose but different effects and environments was amazing. 2. The art is on point, as always. 3. Zuko cameos pog. 4. Good lord, the lore. (seriously Nintendo, hire this man) And 5. I wonder what those Mews are doing there? Guess TH-cam will have to find out... ON THE NEXT EPISODE OF MOXIE POKEBALL Z.
If it were me, I would have said I am only allowed to heal during battle only 2 times for the whole run, meaning if I use the 2 potions during battles in the early game then I can no longer heal during battle for the rest of the game.
@Kode888 Well, it would make it where if you are in a fight that is almost Impossible to do you have a chance to win if you had saved those 2 heals you have till that moment but if you didn't your boned so adds a sort safety so the the run isn't impossible.
I meant at the end of the video, ya know when crystals start forming around their bodies ya hear a shattering sound affect then they show up in the a crystal void or something? that's what it looked like to me at least.@@2-bit567
I have never once thought that Geeta had a good design, but damn if she doesn't look like an actual well-designed character in your art style. Like god damn, I had to do a double take.
Looking back, Geeta seems to be a character designed for 2D, which results in some uncanniness when she's in 3D instead. She has the exact same design in Moxie's art, but thanks to a a slightly rounder face and less bulgy eyes that happen thanks to 2D visualization, she looks a lot better despite technically still looking the same.
Holy crap, the story at the end is insane! Sure I agree with teh theory about Tera Energy not powering time travel and instead granting wishes but then Pawmi and Moxie-Kun can terastalize and Pawmi goes super saiyan?! Wtf?! Why isn’t this actually real in the game?! I would love to be a Tera human!
I think I've found my new favourite Moxie quote: "We used to be cavemen picking berries and shit." But again, incredible video. Time for a new Pawmi-themed desktop background!
Explaining why Moxie-Kun faded away hit me like a punch to the gut, but that ending makes me think that we aren't done with Moxie-Kun yet, and I think it is Mochi's wish, somehow granted by Mew, that allows them to continue on.
You are the best gamer storyteller right now, most of them seem to have lost the heart or where never that good in the first place. And to top that you are an amazing artist that can bring the scenes to life, which make your videos the best story driven playthrough content on the platform. Keep the amazing work Moxie
Omg, i love your art work and how you make a story out of this. After watching both views and crying a couple of times, i cant but subscribe. This was amazing to watch and cant help to be excited for more of your videos
I remember these livestreams. They were so much fun! I'm 12 hours behind Australia and was unemployed at the time so I was up all night watching these streams. Glad to see it became such a fantastic video!
Man, this video is 10/10, no matter what. I can’t think of anything to say. Calling it good is an understatement. Excellent work! Everything was flushed out very well & is well put in. Great work! Can’t wait for the DLC!
Once again you managed to make me cry. I swear these anime s&v play throughs are heart wrenching. When Mew shows up I really had a moment of begging mew to save everything. Amazing work both with the game play/story *and* the art. You're doing amazing.
This video was so amazing. You do such a good job at making pokemon challenge content stand out while also bringing so much new to the table. Great stuff, Moxie. Keep it up!
I wasn't expecting all the Alpharad shade, I'm rolling xD Also, these were really fun streams to be apart of and I love seeing the final product come together! (As always)
Well, here we go again. I'll be honest, Mr. 2D: I actually wasn't expecting anything nearly as pristine as your other videos. Not that I expected it to be bad, or even just decent. I knew it was gonna be good, but compared to your phenomenal Legends Arceus ending, and your oh-my-gods-how-is-this-even-real Scarlet nuzloke, I didn't expect it to stand out much. I thought i'd just be a fun challenge run to settle down with in between your cinematic masterpieces. Can I please stop being wrong about everything? I still don't think this one matches up to your godlike duology (until the ending) but it was leaps and bounds ahead of my expectations. The fact that there's only one pokemon in the entire run heightens the most important attribute of the nuzloke, how it makes you care about your pokemon, without even being a nuzloke. I really started to care for Mochi as the video went on. I was really worried that making Mochi unkillable would dampen the experience, but it really didn't. That's just how lovable Mochi was, and how good your storytelling was. Another thing that I really liked about this was how it filled in the one, SINGULAR problem I had with your prior masterpiece. I didn't mention it before, but I felt like Moxie-kun was kind of an awkward inclusion. He just kinda felt shoved into there for convenience, whenever Moxie-chan needed him (we'll absolutely get back to that). This video shows that Moxie-kun had his own journey, his own connections, and it was arguably even more harrowing than Moxie-chan's nuzloke, what with poor Mochi getting beaten down 75 agonizing times. I love how every time Mochi gets back up, he's portrayed sightly more battered, and it made me genuinely sad every time Mochi bit the dust. I loved the art in general; it's so vibrant and colorful and really serves to differentiate you from other poketubers. Speaking of which, all the petty quips at Alpharad just got funnier every time I heard them. Can I take a moment to say that this is just a funny-ass series? The first act of the SV nuzloke especially is filled with so many hilarious moments. They don't even feel like they were trying to be funny, they just had really good setup and delivery. Honestly, comedy peaked as soon as kingambit activated his booster seat. I think my favorite part of this whole video (besides the ending) was what you did with the Geeta fight. It's no secret by this point that Geeta got really shafted by those cruelest of gods (Game Freak). Her team isn't very memorable, and they're utilized pretty sloppily. It always made me sad to think about how much wasted potential there was with Geeta. In this however, she feels genuinely intimidating and powerful, just as someone with the title of Top Champion should feel. She feels like a barrier that you have to try everything against before it starts to show cracks. I also love the moment where you just start questioning why people do challenge runs in the first place. It's one of those moment that makes you remember "Oh, yeah. This isn't how were supposed to play those games, is it?" Speaking of trying everything against a barrier until it breaks, some of the strategies that you used throughout the run were some of the most interesting i've ever seen. Alpharad was kind of right when he said that most solo runs boil down to jus spamming the same overleveled attack and winning. This video is basically the antithesis of that trend. The versatility of terasilization, the vast array of held items utilized, and the crazy movepool this little mouse gets (like honestly, I forget "entrainment" was even a move) make for some of the most insane strategies that you wouldn't even see in competitive play. But at the same time, his moves isn't so good that you can just one-shot everything with super effective coverage (as we saw with the demonic goat). It's a perfect mix of freedom and restriction that allows the creative mind to run wild. This all culminates in this... f***ing beautiful final fight against Turo. Any bit of tension that could have been lost from the unkillable mouse gets jacked up to 11 from the $250 bet. Suddenly, loss has a lot more meaning in the run. The tension is thick enough to cut with a knife, and we haven't even started the battle yet. First off, I love the tangents about every paradox pokémon's book entry, and how they are, like the pokemon tied to them, impossible. I already thought your theory was onto something in your last video, but this one absolutely convinced me that you were right, especially with iron bundle. The music in this segment is unreal. I don't think i've ever heard an OST go this hard on a Pokemon game, of all things. The techno-esque synth captures the futuristic feeling so perfectly. I especially love the final confrontation with Miridon. By itself, it really should be that special: just a plot-forced win against the final fight. But I feel like this part shows how far Moxie-kun and especially Mochi have gone. Of course Mochi isn't scared. Who should he be? He's stared death in the face 74 times. Why should the purple cock dragon faze him? I audibly gasped when Mochi finally stood on two legs. The final scene is what finally brings the two universes together. Honestly, this has to be one of the most genius explanations of a side story i've ever heard. It ties perfectly into the main plot, while closing the questions I had. Knowing what I know now, it's no wonder why Moxie-kun's inclusion felt awkward and shoved into there for convenience. It's because it WAS awkward and shoved into there for convenience. That was the WHOLE POINT. I honestly can't believe this video exists, just from the ending sequences alone. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go drive myself mad trying to figure out the meaning of the final drawings. Buh-bye
Okay, this video is insane. The artworks are gorgeous, the determination of both you AND the pawmi, the way you framed the battle against AI Turo with the music choice and introductions for each pokemon, it's all so freaking good!
AAAAAH! Such pretty art!!! Also I loved Mew being hinted at throughout this, the whole time I was like "is Mew in THIS scene too? Gotta keep a lookout'
I thought I was forgetting something, seeing Mew in the background of all those shots. Now I'm so happy I caught them. You keep crushing it, Moxie. This is my favorite playthrough series, and I can't wait to see more.
Just for future reference, Tera Blast only becomes a physical move if your attack stat is higher than your special attack stat while terastallized. If you’re not terastallized, Tera Blast is always a special move.
The Shear amount of lore in these is insane, I've know about you for a while as you short about the Jaiden raid has popped into my feed a few times, Now I'm hear kicking myself for not watching you sooner. I'm not going to go binge watch as much as I can. I REALLY enjoyed this and the art is phenomenal, Really a cherry on top of an amazing run, and an even better story. Looking forward to more.
Why!!! Did you have to make the ending so sad! It almost brought me to tears. I know Moxie-kun and mochi aren’t real but losing them still hurts so much. Great video though looking forward to the next part of Moxie-chan’s journey.
Your artwork brings out an emotional reaction in me every time. I don't know how you do it, but it's amazing. This story you're crafting is absolutely fantastic! Can't wait for Kitakami!
Amazing achievement man, I thought it couldn’t be done! Also I freaking love all the FF14 music you put in this video, from A realm reborn to freaking shadowbringers! Amazing!
This was awesome! Your storytelling and artworks are so great and I really really love your SV content. The combination of actual/hypothetic lore and your own story lore is brillant.
I'm always impressed and awestruck by your storytelling!!! You're such an amazing artist and storyteller, my jaw is on the floor! Way to go Moxie and Mochi!!! M&M all the way ❤
This is just...I don’t even have the words honestly. Each video you put out cements your position as my top 2, probably even top 1 favorite pokemon TH-camr of all time (disputing the first place with Lockstin), and one of my favorite content creators ever. Keep up the good work. This is art.
Pawmot or as I like to call him pawmight is one of my favorite pokemon from gen 9. Electric tera double shock that can be used over and over, revival blessing to revive an ally without using the item, close combat for fighting stab and metronome for lolz with muscle band for boosted attack power is a beast.
Moxie, you had no right to make me tear up like that. I was about to cry over Moxie-kin and Mochi moving on. But I really enjoyed the story, can’t wait for the teal mask installment!
People knock on Pawmi evos, but it's actually pretty potent evolving. Going from quadrupedal to bipedal is pretty impressive, but because the Pokemon universe has it so often, it kind of shadows the nature of it. The final has better proportions, leading to a better expression of the bipedality. I think people shouldn't disregard them!
Caught a shiny Pawmi in honor of the incredible journey I just watched. Another job well done! Watching again for the Mew hints I missed the first time around.
That was an amazing story, I love your art pieces so much. This was such a different video then your Nuzlock it was cool to see all the different strategies you had to use.
I'm one of the few people who loves the Pawmi line...I love everything about it, it's so cute and perfect for plushies, I want plushies of all three of them 😅
god this video was so amazing!! i loved the story that you created with pawmi and it was fun watching you play the game with them!! also, i heard rolling girl by wowaka in the background…great music taste
•AHHH! That was absolutely sweet, - What an adventure seeing it from both sides; I really want to know what happens next! But I promised myself I wouldn’t spoil the teal mask; (despite knowing- honestly not much about it) Anyway! Can’t wait to see the next future art.
@Moxie2D, you are one of the best storytellers in the Pokémon community period. Probably one of my favorite storytellers in general. You have a creativity and care for lore that is rare and unique. I love your content and hope you are extremely proud of the amazing quality you produce. Looking forward to the next chapter. ❤
This was amazing, it genuinely made me cry. The story behind Mochi and Moxie-kun was absolutely heart warming and the fact that the story ended in an amazing way helps it even more. I was convinced the mew in the background was a coincidence but it has smth to do with the story? Amazing. Why did i cry while watching this? No clue..
Moxie, you just keep getting better and better. The story you are crafting is something else, and I am so thrilled to be along for the ride. Thank you!
He (the protagonisit) didnt want to evolve his pawmi because he didnt trust pawmots after charlie couldnt be revived. Yet, he has to keep the nuzzlocke stone...
Every time. Every. Single. Time. You make a video with art, your art improves in leaps and bounds. It has been a joy to follow you up until now, and hopefully long into the future. It's works like yours, your progression, that motivates me to make art of my own, to just try and start drawing again, even if it's just a little bit. Thank you, Moxie.
So i love pawmi and might do a Mano run now. But I’m laughing at 9:36 just the mew floating in the background. Like what? Hehe love the video and the content. :)
I'm a new watcher, and your videos are amazing. I'm so immersed into your stories so much that I tear up at the emotional scenes. Time to binge your videos!
the Alpharad roasts were inspiring lol but seriously happy to see Moxie-Kun and his lil baby buddy Mochi!! this video is amazing as always and your story-telling continues to impress us all Mox :))
I'm alwaya stunned at these mega art vids, moxie. It matches the sense of awe that pokemon used to instill and needs to have more of again, particularly the style used for these videos, it works so beautifully into the magical look of the terra phenomenon. The light, colors and particles are phenomenal, i was so looking forward to this vid after the Moxie-chan one blew me away. Keep on trucking you funky guy 🎉

This is the best series on Pokémon Scarlet and Violet that will ever exist.
This is perfect. The whole adventure is connecting so well to the story. Love the detail of mew following Moxie-kun around the whole time.

I knew it was gonna be good, but compared to your phenomenal Legends Arceus ending, and your oh-my-gods-how-is-this-even-real Scarlet nuzloke, I didn't expect it to stand out much.

But I feel like this part shows how far Moxie-kun and especially Mochi have gone. Of course Mochi isn't scared. Who should he be? He's stared death in the face 74 times. Why should the purple cock dragon faze him? I audibly gasped when Mochi finally stood on two legs.
The final scene is what finally brings the two universes together. Honestly, this has to be one of the most genius explanations of a side story i've ever heard. It ties perfectly into the main plot, while closing the questions I had. Knowing what I know now, it's no wonder why Moxie-kun's inclusion felt awkward and shoved into there for convenience. It's because it WAS awkward and shoved into there for convenience. That was the WHOLE POINT. I honestly can't believe this video exists, just from the ending sequences alone.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go drive myself mad trying to figure out the meaning of the final drawings.
Buh-bye
This was incredible! Well done Moxie! Loved the attention to detail!
Okay, this video is insane. The artworks are gorgeous, the determination of both you AND the pawmi, the way you framed the battle against AI Turo with the music choice and introductions for each pokemon, it's all so freaking good!
Damn. Storytime with Moxie gets me in the feels everytime
AAAAAH! Such pretty art!!! Also I loved Mew being hinted at throughout this, the whole time I was like "is Mew in THIS scene too? Gotta keep a lookout'
I just love your art and story telling so much! I'm super happy I found your channel
I thought I was forgetting something, seeing Mew in the background of all those shots. Now I'm so happy I caught them. You keep crushing it, Moxie. This is my favorite playthrough series, and I can't wait to see more.
Just for future reference, Tera Blast only becomes a physical move if your attack stat is higher than your special attack stat while terastallized. If you’re not terastallized, Tera Blast is always a special move.
The Shear amount of lore in these is insane, I've know about you for a while as you short about the Jaiden raid has popped into my feed a few times, Now I'm hear kicking myself for not watching you sooner. I'm not going to go binge watch as much as I can. I REALLY enjoyed this and the art is phenomenal, Really a cherry on top of an amazing run, and an even better story. Looking forward to more.
Thanks so much! The DLC video isn't too far off so hopefully it stacks up :)
Honestly, Moxie, your uploads give me the same emotions I got from the original Pokémon movie. So much care, heart, and personality throughout.
Why!!! Did you have to make the ending so sad! It almost brought me to tears. I know Moxie-kun and mochi aren’t real but losing them still hurts so much. Great video though looking forward to the next part of Moxie-chan’s journey.
Lesss goo the pawmi video is finally here. This was one heck of a journey.
Edit: That ending was so much more beautiful than i imagined it would be.
You're art is always amazing! It honestly made me fall in love with Pawmin and Pawmo because I wasnt a fan at first. Now I'm obsessed with them!
I love the Mew that is just constantly haunting him throughout the entire game
Your artwork brings out an emotional reaction in me every time. I don't know how you do it, but it's amazing.
This story you're crafting is absolutely fantastic! Can't wait for Kitakami!
Amazing achievement man, I thought it couldn’t be done! Also I freaking love all the FF14 music you put in this video, from A realm reborn to freaking shadowbringers! Amazing!
This was SOO GOOD! LOVE the lore you weaved into this! Another banger, Moxie!
this genuinely (along with the 100 days nuzlocke) may be the best youtube videos ive ever seen.
This was awesome! Your storytelling and artworks are so great and I really really love your SV content. The combination of actual/hypothetic lore and your own story lore is brillant.
The story continues with Moxie-Kun !
Your videos are just dripping with charm, Moxie. Not sure how you manage to make every video so pulse pounding, but it's a remarkable talent.
The fact that this has become an actual story is amazing! Very well done!
I´m so hyped for the next Part of the Lore this is one of the best videos i have seen. Keep the godd work up!
I'm always impressed and awestruck by your storytelling!!! You're such an amazing artist and storyteller, my jaw is on the floor! Way to go Moxie and Mochi!!! M&M all the way ❤
This is just...I don’t even have the words honestly. Each video you put out cements your position as my top 2, probably even top 1 favorite pokemon TH-camr of all time (disputing the first place with Lockstin), and one of my favorite content creators ever. Keep up the good work. This is art.
I LOVE MOCHI ❤
And wow the art is beautiful 💕✨
Also wow Moxie roasting Alpharad a little too MUCH 😂
All the art you drew for this video is so beautiful! And Pawmi is soooo cute!
Pawmot or as I like to call him pawmight is one of my favorite pokemon from gen 9. Electric tera double shock that can be used over and over, revival blessing to revive an ally without using the item, close combat for fighting stab and metronome for lolz with muscle band for boosted attack power is a beast.
I'm rewatching this since you announced the DLC nuzlocke! Super excited for it!
I love how you made an original story out of another playthrough. Beautiful work!
It feels. So good to revisit this one. I love your storytelling in this and the Scarlet nuzlocke. Excited for Moxie-chan's teal and indigo adventures!
Its so nice to see the other side of the story
Moxie, you had no right to make me tear up like that. I was about to cry over Moxie-kin and Mochi moving on. But I really enjoyed the story, can’t wait for the teal mask installment!
People knock on Pawmi evos, but it's actually pretty potent evolving. Going from quadrupedal to bipedal is pretty impressive, but because the Pokemon universe has it so often, it kind of shadows the nature of it. The final has better proportions, leading to a better expression of the bipedality. I think people shouldn't disregard them!
10/10 video! I love the fact you are know how to story tell with a little guy.
Caught a shiny Pawmi in honor of the incredible journey I just watched. Another job well done! Watching again for the Mew hints I missed the first time around.
That was an amazing story, I love your art pieces so much. This was such a different video then your Nuzlock it was cool to see all the different strategies you had to use.
The final battle drawings and animation were AMAZINGGGG
I love that Moxie adds lore to his videos, lore that relates to the game's lore. Love your videos Mox❤❤
I'm one of the few people who loves the Pawmi line...I love everything about it, it's so cute and perfect for plushies, I want plushies of all three of them 😅
god this video was so amazing!! i loved the story that you created with pawmi and it was fun watching you play the game with them!! also, i heard rolling girl by wowaka in the background…great music taste
I love every pawmi in existence, which includes Mochi, of course 😻
I adore pawmi and am so glad I found this video. It was such a good watch, with amazing art work and commentary. Thankyou for making this :)
•AHHH! That was absolutely sweet, - What an adventure seeing it from both sides; I really want to know what happens next! But I promised myself I wouldn’t spoil the teal mask; (despite knowing- honestly not much about it) Anyway! Can’t wait to see the next future art.
@Moxie2D, you are one of the best storytellers in the Pokémon community period. Probably one of my favorite storytellers in general. You have a creativity and care for lore that is rare and unique. I love your content and hope you are extremely proud of the amazing quality you produce. Looking forward to the next chapter. ❤
The fact it was a side quest is incredible writing
The FFXIV music in this & the Nuzlocke really work well with the emotional impact of the narrative! Amazing effort as always ♡
only minute in and i can already tell moxie's going bash on alpharad every chance he get's
This was amazing, it genuinely made me cry. The story behind Mochi and Moxie-kun was absolutely heart warming and the fact that the story ended in an amazing way helps it even more. I was convinced the mew in the background was a coincidence but it has smth to do with the story? Amazing. Why did i cry while watching this? No clue..
I love the lore in your videos!
Moxie, you just keep getting better and better. The story you are crafting is something else, and I am so thrilled to be along for the ride. Thank you!
Also you are objectively correct and the Pawmi line is one of the best of this gen!
Plot Twist:Pawmi was using 1 percent of their power, in fear of destroying the world, and in fear of destroying Moxie-Kun
And yet it started destroying them both.
GREAT to see you upload again! I love your videos, especially your AMAZING art! You really deserve more subs. Can't wait for another video!
He (the protagonisit) didnt want to evolve his pawmi because he didnt trust pawmots after charlie couldnt be revived. Yet, he has to keep the nuzzlocke stone...
Every time. Every. Single. Time. You make a video with art, your art improves in leaps and bounds. It has been a joy to follow you up until now, and hopefully long into the future.
It's works like yours, your progression, that motivates me to make art of my own, to just try and start drawing again, even if it's just a little bit.
Thank you, Moxie.
I don't know who was dealt more hits in this video, Mochi or Alpharad
So i love pawmi and might do a Mano run now. But I’m laughing at 9:36 just the mew floating in the background. Like what? Hehe love the video and the content. :)
Most high quality pokemon challange video.
I'm a new watcher, and your videos are amazing. I'm so immersed into your stories so much that I tear up at the emotional scenes. Time to binge your videos!
THE BEAT UP PAWMI COPY+PASTED IN A NEW AREA IS KILLING ME 🤣
I love the metal pipe falling sound effect whenever the steel types make moves
MOXIE UPLOAD PLEASE DON'T PULL A CORY I WAITED 11 MONTHS FOR AN UPLOAD
WE'RE CLOSE
WHAT YOU STILL EXIST!!!!! YIPIEEE
@@moxie2D I was getting SO worried
the Alpharad roasts were inspiring lol
but seriously happy to see Moxie-Kun and his lil baby buddy Mochi!! this video is amazing as always and your story-telling continues to impress us all Mox :))
MOCHI THE LEGEND
I'm alwaya stunned at these mega art vids, moxie. It matches the sense of awe that pokemon used to instill and needs to have more of again, particularly the style used for these videos, it works so beautifully into the magical look of the terra phenomenon. The light, colors and particles are phenomenal, i was so looking forward to this vid after the Moxie-chan one blew me away. Keep on trucking you funky guy 🎉
