    I initially thought that this meant "If I die, I can't use that pokemon again" and not "If I lose, I can't use that pokemon again" and up until the ten minute mark I thought that Jacob's god luck had saved him for like 20 games in a row. Also, banger editing. This felt like a feature length film except without the length or the film and it is just **feature** but like really fucking good.

Absol, slowbro, blissy, jigglypuff, and cinderace are the only ones who feel victim, two because of zap and three because of bad/afk players.

    @thesnoms1492 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Have you tried Blaze Kick Cinderace? It's quite powerful as you can reposition very well with it and get out of some sticky situations, but the damage comes from rapid pressing the A button which I understand could be quite unfun but Blaze Kick is still super powerful with its utility. Also a few jungling things: if you farm efficiently enough you should have your unite move before first drednaw. Three jungle rotations is most probably enough to get you level 9. The rotation goes like 1st jungle > pick a lane to help > go back to jungle after helping team secure 1st bees and hopefully getting a few kills > 2nd jungle spawns where you'll hopefully have your level 7 power spike > repeat second step > try to get kills but don't die > help team when bees spawn > 3rd jungle spawns. This is probably a bad explanation of the jungler role and that you probably already knew this but I hope this helps somehow!

  • @jblen
    @jblen 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Alternatively, the nuzlocke could be getting to master without your Pokémon fainting, BUT you can lose. Like if your Pokémon faints once in a given battle, you continue the battle to completion but after that you can no longer use the Pokémon. So it becomes a toss up of trying to help your team, but running when danger comes and buffering teammates so everyone has a chance to heal, but you can still hold position. Also a risk/reward of potentially winning a key match, but forfeiting a Pokémon to do so.
