the thing with durant (at least imo) is that it LOOKS unevolved, it LOOKS like there's more to the evo line but it just ends there for some reason it's just a tiny little bug type
i do think in R&B specifically durant is probably a really good mon bc it baits fire type kills like no other and if you can combine that with something like a kingdra or a flash fire mon to pivot with, that makes for a very strong strategy for certain trainers
@@cheeselord3655 oh true, luckily this one is swarm tho also for enemy trainers hustle might actually be scarier bc you have to deal with potentially really high damage crits, it's like dealing with multihit moves like rock blast or whatever
to the getting cooked at climbing: that can happen sometimes, that the problems even though it's a difficulty you are used to is just not a style you are used to in terms of moves you need to clear it
Wow! I didn’t know that Jan and I had similar food preferences! I usually eat rocks and sand with a little algae on it, pretty high in protein and fiber. Good to see him taking his diet seriously
Genuinely insane how well Jan has managed to get through this absolutely cursed run. If he makes it, what a fuckin story. If he doesn't, imagine how much easier he's gonna find the cooks with an actually decent box next run!
I think it’d be really cool to show how long you spent cooking for every fight. Not actually show the cooking but just like a little graphic on screen “cooked for 20 minutes” or “cooked for 3.5 hours” could even have it have a little pot/pan icon or something
hi pchal daily! Commenting to let you know this episode is missing from the run and bun playlist (I'm currently binging and got confused by the recap being very different to the episode I had actually watched lmnao)
Could umbreon not count as a dark type that evolves via item if one considers the moon shard from XD Gale of Darkness? Technically it’s considered a key item, and the evo is still based on friendship, but the moon shard is consumed upon evolution, so I wonder if Pokedoku takes that into account (I’ve never played it)
Nah ik what he could've gotten is amazing, but Durant is WICKED hard to take a hit from, I underrated this mon heavily and it's super powerful, this will def be getting huge frags unless he loses it accidentally
Dude, I actually think we should kind of redefine what we mean by best nuzlocker, as the way you keep pulling everything out of the shittiest odds, most others would have reset a long time ago. Man, I can’t even follow half the stuff you cook up here, I am just continuously amazed that someone can be so incredibly deep into something to suffer through that. You are doing satan‘s math homework every day for hours, that‘s more than I can give my coding job per day, the rest is just maintenance. Great stuff man, you are the best nuzlocker in the world to me, fanboy mode over.

“This wasn’t the encounter I wanted” sounds like the story of this entire run ngl
unreal how okay-ish encounters is the theme of the entire run. even pult had 0 atk lmao
pult with 0 attack is still nowhere near an "okay encounter"
He scaled pult attack so it's max attack
@@rudranshsharma6639yeah but the point is he got the worst pult possible
@@rudranshsharma6639wait ik scale can be used for iv in rnb but he did it to pult? looking at earhart in a completely different light now
0 atk means best value for heart scale to 31
Never thought I'd hear a "Dies to Doom Blade" joke on PChal but leave it to chat to speak it into existence
I feel like pChal singlehandedly raised Salazel's ranking from C to S tier.
Mon's been pivotal in so many fights
Top tier editing on this episode, no? With the music titles and the chat zoom ins. Great work!
And people were sad when we encountered Salazzle. She has been the secret MVP of this run. These encore clutches
Box 13 GOAT Pachacuti in our hearts forever
Please someone tell Jan that after you drink all your water there is no longer water in the cup
He didn't play around the crit range 😔
People underestimate Durant.
Resistant to grass, ground and rock to neutral and a very good offensive typing. Very good mon
the thing with durant (at least imo) is that it LOOKS unevolved, it LOOKS like there's more to the evo line but it just ends there for some reason
it's just a tiny little bug type
Swarm choice band surely leaves a first impression to the opposing trainers
i do think in R&B specifically durant is probably a really good mon bc it baits fire type kills like no other and if you can combine that with something like a kingdra or a flash fire mon to pivot with, that makes for a very strong strategy for certain trainers
The big issue with Durant is hustle, because in a nuzlocke consistency trumps power every time
@@cheeselord3655 oh true, luckily this one is swarm tho
also for enemy trainers hustle might actually be scarier bc you have to deal with potentially really high damage crits, it's like dealing with multihit moves like rock blast or whatever
Swimmer Dean was playing smash or pass and he is just a simple man I can't blame him
if i had a nickel every time he missed a pokemon thats top 10, i would be elon fucking musk man.
Wouldn’t you have 50 cents max
@@mathewboe2093 Yeah, but he has generational wealth to fall back on.
You know at first when he said "we can sack kecleon because we have octillery" i thought he was joking
Umbreon evolves via Moon Shard in Pokemon XD which is an official Pokemon game and is needed to complete Gen 3 pokedex.
Thank you danii6789 at 15:19 for the fun fact, would actually be nice if the editor added this info before every fight
If ever we needed reminders that chatters exist
Mornings in the office featuring PChal Daily. My favorite tradition
Holy shit it's the best Salazzle user in the world PChal!
Jan doesn't believe he's the best nuzlocker in the world anymore. Peak character development. Still a Michelin star chef tho.
I was thinking about this. Who hath dethroned thy nuzlock king?
He never though so he says i am PROBABLY the best nuzlocke in the world
@@-xOSHOx-I feel like Drxx is currently the best Nuzlocker.
But feel free to disagree.
@@KingP1mp I can get behind that. I suppose I just have positive Jan bias. Lol
It’s probably the guy that beat EK deathless right?
to the getting cooked at climbing:
that can happen sometimes, that the problems even though it's a difficulty you are used to is just not a style you are used to in terms of moves you need to clear it

Finally some dope IVs. It's on Armaldo, but good IVs is good IVs
Watching Jan just as im about to go on my flight is the best feeling tbh
The monologue at 25:00 felt like he was saying a genuine prayer
8:54 "the crack" got me dead
"You may not be pregnant but you will always deliver"
The fuck 13:11
Love hearing about his climbing adventures, I started in January and it’s what got me back into watching everyday
28:04 man even got the 12.5% female cradily
The Monday morning get ready for work vids are the best
pchals impression of squerk is just golden!
14:29 SHOUTOUTS TO SIMPLEFLIPS
How long ago would this run have wiped if there were no Encore Pokémon available in Run & Bun?
Jan is gonna be the reason Modders stop putting fake out and encore in the same game
Hell yeah that Armaldo. Reminds me of good old Vintage White runs.
He might not be pregnant but he does deliver
He might also be pregnant
Genuinely insane how well Jan has managed to get through this absolutely cursed run. If he makes it, what a fuckin story. If he doesn't, imagine how much easier he's gonna find the cooks with an actually decent box next run!
Two outstanding encounters and a casual Salazzle encore masterpiece? Cmonnnnn doesn’t get better than that my fellow PChal Daily chads!
I wait for this every day as soon as I finish lunch I’m looking for it
Chat was Wilding during this stream 😂😂
Francis is gonna be a Ford to your Coppola, Jan.

28:31 why is this TOS?
he said "I'll take it, fuck it"
15:55 yes Borrisack, I'm having a snack
YES the song titles are back
Shell Smash Smeargle was not what I was expecting, shame it got straight up deleted
hi pchal daily! Commenting to let you know this episode is missing from the run and bun playlist (I'm currently binging and got confused by the recap being very different to the episode I had actually watched lmnao)
Hot damn! Some IVs that aren't totally cursed. Nice!
How is Shiftry not Dark and Evolved by item?
Really appreciate the music titles
just so you know, this video is missing from the playlist!
Can anyone explain the joke at 28:01?
But the BIG QUESTION: How was DnD?
Shoutout to the music being listed
He definitely had soup.
armaldo is what blaziken only couldve dreamt of being. rip blaziken still
THIS IS THE RUN (inb4 we wipe to optional)
Spoiler block!

You're great
Could umbreon not count as a dark type that evolves via item if one considers the moon shard from XD Gale of Darkness? Technically it’s considered a key item, and the evo is still based on friendship, but the moon shard is consumed upon evolution, so I wonder if Pokedoku takes that into account (I’ve never played it)
Main games only
Can't believe he actually got the mega beedrill
Kingambit was right there for dark item evo
Editor putting up Wilt numbers
you thought we wouldn't see the chicken and tomato that you were eating
we're back.
You don't have to be the current #1 to be the goat
Armaldo about to go crazy
Jan gatekeeping meals is crazy
Hello Pcal's Stream Chat!
Good encounters, especially IV wise, reckon durant gonna come in clutch somewhere:)
Whats the “the fact that i have a 60% chance at cradilly” mean?
Nah ik what he could've gotten is amazing, but Durant is WICKED hard to take a hit from, I underrated this mon heavily and it's super powerful, this will def be getting huge frags unless he loses it accidentally
The editor def plays pokerogue
Zoom ins on chat always bring gold.
dear god the guyVs on that maldo
I mean Urshifu also is more an event EVO then anything tbh
As of SV, it evolves via item: the scrolls that can be bought via auction.
He was dethroned?
boy why is there a goddamn 2 minute previously on section
Curious what's to come!
7:40
14:58
This is definitely biased, but I'm so glad these hacks are all in gen 3, Hoenn music is just sooo good. Shout-out to dancing chatters during battle
Actual good IVs for once on Armaldo
The dlc for scarlet and violet pchal would like for a hard core nuzlocke. It's all challenging double battles at blueberry academy
Been awhile since we saw some guys
GuyV’s in the Maldo is actually so fucking based bro (it’s one of my favorite prehistoric Pokémon)
5:40 when the video actually starts
pausing the video to say dark type item is honchcrow
Vintage White Andy 😊
I would just like to contest that Umbreon does have an evolution via item. You just need to be playing Gale of Darkness
Durant is actually a really good get i think
this attempt lowkey kinda reverse ek 151, just straight up fucked from the start pokemon and iv wise only for guys to appear in the end lmao
I kind of not want this run to end. Is that evil?
You don’t want the run to end? Neither do I! Why would not wanting the run to end be evil though?
