This is an insane surprise! I love your style of explaining everything so these types of challenge runs feel like the perfect new type of content for the main channel!
I really like how you used every little obscure thing to your advantage in this, i didnt even know you could get choice specs without the battle tower in this game. Btw the text at the beginning felt a bit overwhelming but the whole video is great
It switched out because you hit it with a move that a different pokemon was immune to - I’m not sure all of the ways gen 4 switch ai works but if you surf on something and they have a water absorb mon in the back, they can switch to it. Immunities and resistances like this enable the AI switches - some gens the switching-in mon also needs to have a super effective move on the pokemon you have out. Great video! Really clever strats
Machop Sacrifice: It must be an awful feeling knowing you're scripted for death but I did this for the greater good Pineco Sacrifice : Everything went just as planned
"I pick Slugma because I think a ligma joke *could* be funny at some point..." I love how this is read totally seriously as if it were a strategic move
That text in the beginning honestly hurt my eyes, and I almost didn't watch the rest. But I'm really glad I did! You had me gut-laugh twice before even the 2nd gym. Can't wait to see more content like this.
@@pikminman13 The point of the text is that people who mouse over the thumbnail in stead of clicking (which plays the video preview without sound), can get an idea about the gist of the video, which increases the likelihood that they'll click it. It's standard youtuber stuff.
@@coolnecromancer195% of people that watch pokemon videos know what a nuzlocke is. you don't need to explain it. people that don't can spend the 3 seconds looking it up. you can already get the gist of the video from the title alone.
@@coolnecromancer1 But yt usually has automatic subtitles enabled anyways while hovering over a video so you dont need the incoming text. And I agree, it was really irritating. But the vid was great
Ooh, this is an interesting nuzlocke challenge. I can only imagine how difficult this challenge is with single stage pokemon. As others may have mentioned, the rapid text on screen for each word you said is a bit painful to look at. In particular, I have Epilepsy, so I had to quickly look away from the screen. As such, may I ask if you could reconsider perhaps toning down the editing at the beginning of these videos if you wish to make more of these challenge videos? Keep on with the great work!
19:03 I feel weird and sad every time I see one Nuzlocker running away from the legendaries instead of catching them, and not using them in the challenge if they manage to catch them. But I appreciate the effort. It reminds me of Hernán Cortés and his strategy of "burning their ships" to compromise with his troops to conquer or die in the attempt. 19:28 Noooooo, you monster :'( NOW I'm sad, Totodile is my favorite starter of all time...well, rest easy, soldier... I just finished the video, congratulations on beating the remake of the first generation of Pokémon that I played during my life. It seems pretty risky to sacrifice a lot of Pokémon in the final battle but at least I'm glad you made it.
Oh hey, I’m a Misdreavus! That’s my favorite Ghost-type line, lucky me! Thanks for the video Freezai, love the new content! Excited to see what you do next!
Fear Rattata, Swords dance gligar, dude they didnt realize they were coming in for a Slaughter. For real though, this is the most efficient and incredibly well thought out Nuzlocke I have ever seen. Every single battle looks to be strategized, you didnt wing anything. I love that.
Yo buddy I saw you changed title and thumbnail. Guess you were worried because the video initially underperformed. But don't worry, it is NOT the title or thumbnail. Actually, the first ones were better than the current one IMO. It is just that this kind of content is much different than the type of content that got you most of your subscribers. This new format will naturally need some time before it can get traction. You are fine, don't worry:)
This was really cool! I wouldn't give up competition analysis content for this (I think that's what really makes your channel shine), but some of this, well explained and thought out challenge run overviews, are really cool too.
Really nice change of pace form the usual videos. Really excited for future videos like this and I can’t wait for your Emerald Hardcore Nuzlocke as well!!!
I enjoyed the change of content, if this is what you want to do I am all for it and look forward to the next video! I like most of your content anyways, so keep it up!
Bruh you made a great run but damn that hit to my man Maganium… I love that line even if it’s bad it just needs a fairy type desperately and you know it 😭😭😭😭😂
poor ho-oh, never gonna recover from being ignored in favor of baby pokemon lmao. great video, not something i expected out of you but a welcome surprise!
I realy like your take on Nuzlockes with the strategie in how to get specific Pokemon. I would also like to ask if you did the videos on Heart Gold Nuzlockes before during or after you made the video.
Love your videos; your explanations of battle mechanics/choices are always incredibly thorough, easy to follow, but very efficient (As in, you don't meander with your words or add too much fluff). It's the perfect balance and it's the perfect thing to watch while I'm drawing. Thanks for making such awesome content!
Nice video and glad to see you branching out with content. The intro was a bit too jumpy imo. I think your deadpan style of humor works great for this style of video
Great video. Your competitive history videos are super interesting but they can get a bit repetitive, I think this kind of nuzlocke runs are an awesome addition to the cannel.
I loved this video! I’d love to see more like it in the future, your way of explaining things really makes this a great nuzlocke video. I once swept Whitney using only Geodude by Rock Polishing and Defense Curling on Clefairy and then Rolling Out for the win. I understand yours is probably more consistent though because Clefaury could have Metronomed Water Pulse or something
Great video! After all these years and playing hg ss multiple times i never knew about the eggs in violet city! Maybe you can continue this run trough kanto and vs red, i realy enjoyed the vid!
Liked the video! Although some of the text at the start was illegible one word at a time and had a very distracting transition. Okay when it was small, but awkward to read when it was large. You may also want to consider dot points for rules (getting a lot of info across quickly - like that chart you use for tier explanations).
hey i absolutely love your content especially how you're really diversifying these days. But maybe the layout could be a bit better? Like the attempts and death counter.
Sees the rainbow pheonix turkey
"It doesnt look like its worth my time"
Absolute legend
I love how in the intro it shows the iconic “WHAT DID I SAY” Alpharad play at 0:21
It's spreading. Soon, Brayden will become all Nuzlocke content. I welcome this day.

Freezai becoming one of the Pokémon community 🐐s and I'm here for it!
He always was a goat
In the end, when all is said and done, Freezai was cooler, and cooler was Freezai.

LMAO great vid
I love watching FlygongHG's and Silph Spectre's nuzlocke videos. Seeing you participate in nuzlockes is very welcomed.
I liked their videos at first but they just write the same boring ass scripts for every video. Freezai actually knows about the game too
@@user-jn7ic7un1e when did I say he didn't? I just love watching nuzlockes.

Dude love this style of video from you. The knowledgeable commentary over an in-game run is great. Would love to see more videos like this!!
I was not expecting a huge upload like this! Love the content! Hope we see a few more of these in the future!

I appreciate how you walk through and explain your decisions and choices in every match :)
Oh hey, I’m a Misdreavus! That’s my favorite Ghost-type line, lucky me!
Thanks for the video Freezai, love the new content! Excited to see what you do next!
Hey, another misdreavus/mismagius lover !!! Akways happy to find another one
This may be the bridging link between casual and competitive Pokémon Players and I really appreciate that. Great vid Freezai!
I love Freezai’s commentary so much. The fact that he’s very knowledgeable sets this apart from many other commentated nuzlockes.
Fear Rattata, Swords dance gligar, dude they didnt realize they were coming in for a Slaughter. For real though, this is the most efficient and incredibly well thought out Nuzlocke I have ever seen. Every single battle looks to be strategized, you didnt wing anything. I love that.

Yo I love your videos to man.
A highly edited nuzlocke video from Freezai? Unexpected, but really well done! Loved the video… but those text transitions in the beginning. Hot damn.
You summarised this nuzlocke way more efficiently than all other nuzlocke pokemon youtubers ive seen, really solid video i hope you do more like it
Freezai is transforming this channel into an all-rounded channel (not just competitive) and I'm here for it
This was a very well played Nuzlocke, highly impressive for your first upload on this channel
This was epic. Loved seeing all the strategies you came up with
I don't do these runs personally but I really love seeing your analytical style applied to nuzlocke content.
This was really cool! I wouldn't give up competition analysis content for this (I think that's what really makes your channel shine), but some of this, well explained and thought out challenge run overviews, are really cool too.
Really nice change of pace form the usual videos. Really excited for future videos like this and I can’t wait for your Emerald Hardcore Nuzlocke as well!!!
I enjoyed the change of content, if this is what you want to do I am all for it and look forward to the next video! I like most of your content anyways, so keep it up!
7:47 I didn't expect you to do your first sacrifice so soon.
11:18 That is a big RIP.
Anyway, neat run video! Thanks for uploading!
Bruh you made a great run but damn that hit to my man Maganium… I love that line even if it’s bad it just needs a fairy type desperately and you know it 😭😭😭😭😂
This man really said "HeartGold" and acted like we wouldn't want to see Kanto too?
This Little Cup Nuzlocke is really cool
poor ho-oh, never gonna recover from being ignored in favor of baby pokemon lmao. great video, not something i expected out of you but a welcome surprise!
This is amazing! I love the tight editing and strategies.
Thanks Freezai, this must have been a ton of work.
Genuinely, one of the most entertaining Pokémon videos I have ever seen. Keep up the good work
I realy like your take on Nuzlockes with the strategie in how to get specific Pokemon.
I would also like to ask if you did the videos on Heart Gold Nuzlockes before during or after you made the video.
Yay, gameplay content! This was a lot of fun to watch, hope to see more of this kind of stuff as well as your usual in the future :)
Love your videos; your explanations of battle mechanics/choices are always incredibly thorough, easy to follow, but very efficient (As in, you don't meander with your words or add too much fluff).

This was one of my favorite Nuzlocke videos to watch, and I loved the planning that went into all this.
Great playthrough!
editing on point chief! loved this, would be super happy to see more if you enjoyed making this as much as i did watching it
This was incredible, nice work. Great voiceover too.
This was quite surprising. I do like the editing style of it.
Mom get the popcorn new style of Freezai content
Great vid! Just don’t start calling yourself “pro nuzlocker” hahahahaha
Great video, Freezai! Staryu and Gligar really shred the Pokémon League, huh?
Freezai making his own Nuzlocke video suprised me but what really suprised the most is seeing Alpharad's Onix clip in here
I really like the new editing style, and the nuzlocke, though the text at the beginning was a little jarring, so a little less movement would be nice
yeah maybe full sentences with that transition would be easier on the eyes. I like the idea though
My favorite poketuber is making nuzlockes, am I dreaming lol
Nice video and glad to see you branching out with content. The intro was a bit too jumpy imo. I think your deadpan style of humor works great for this style of video
man im so glad we have smogon youtuber who edits their videos finally lmao
Great video. Your competitive history videos are super interesting but they can get a bit repetitive, I think this kind of nuzlocke runs are an awesome addition to the cannel.
Im really happy to see videos like this on your channel. the only issue i can say is the yellow text spam at the start was kinda hard to look at.
Wow, absolutely amazing use of many underrated strategies in nuzlocks. Definitely one of best runs I've seen.
really great video, especially for being the first of this kind on your channel
"Magikarp is terrible because I can't evolve it into Gyarados, but I get it for the culture" Based AF lmao. Instant like right there haha
I loved this video! I’d love to see more like it in the future, your way of explaining things really makes this a great nuzlocke video.

AYO?!? Freezai hardcore nuzlocking time? I am SO down. I like how you structured the video, very pleasing to watch. I like it!
With how calculated Freezai always is, I expect Nuzlockes to be a piece of cake for him.
its awesome to see more competitive singles players get into nuzlocking, that was an awesome video! keep up the great job!
i like this (for me) new trend of summerized nuzlocks, keep on going. Love your content.
Let's gooo freezai doing long videos!!
This is a great video! Your planning was really impressive
Great video! After all these years and playing hg ss multiple times i never knew about the eggs in violet city! Maybe you can continue this run trough kanto and vs red, i realy enjoyed the vid!
Freezai your channel will pop like no other if you pursue this kind of edited content and keep your soul while doing it
14:54 well before the split those attacks were special and probably they didnt change the moves from gold and silver
i love these hardcore nuzlocke challenges :) keep it up !!!
06:27 "Fortunately I caught Growlithe on the first try."
Literally 10 seconds ago :
"Aww!
It appeared to be caught !"
Yeah... he means that he caught it on the first encounter
This was a great watch, would definitely want more of this!
Ι always wondered why no HG/SS nuzlockes go all the way to Red in the end. But the video was super cool, keep it up Freezai!
I like that you say the explanations and the memes with the same tone
This is such good content. The possibility of ligma joke joke had me rolling
can't believe this hasn't got more views, people don't know what they're missing
nicely done! i liked the edit and commentary
The channel is diversifying it’s quite cool
0:21 I like how he shoved the famous Alpharad moment in there
“Fortunately I catch Growlithe on the first try”
- Freezai 5 seconds after showing the first try missing
Love the nuzlocke content! :) Hope to see more of that - maybe a rom hack!? :p
Anyways keep it up, love your Videos!
Loving the new style of content, keep it up!
Liked the video! Although some of the text at the start was illegible one word at a time and had a very distracting transition. Okay when it was small, but awkward to read when it was large. You may also want to consider dot points for rules (getting a lot of info across quickly - like that chart you use for tier explanations).
This new type of content is really well done
Love this sorta content! Keep it coming man.
Awesome vid Freezai, keep on doing them, cause they’re great
hey i absolutely love your content especially how you're really diversifying these days. But maybe the layout could be a bit better? Like the attempts and death counter.
Imagine being Lance and having your team annihilated by a Staryu. I'd probably quit training Pokémon.
Babe wake up new freezai video
Cheers for more nuzlocke context!
Damn freezai ur channel keeps evolving and getting better and better 🔥🔥🔥
great vid but that intro made me wish I was born without eyes. Keep up the great work sir!
Shame we didn't get to see you challenge Red, but this was a lot of fun 😊
If I wasn't subscribed already I'd do it right now, aside from the competitive format, I also really enjoy this kind of nuzlocke content
I've never seen Pokemon runs be played competitively until now😂😂😂💯
so excited to see this in a pchal vid. in all seriousness tho, excellent video! hope to see more like it
Love this style of video from you. I’d love to see a mono-type playthrough of oras
It’s the content we’ve wanted all along
love the nuzlocke content, keep it up bro!
This was a great video, really enjoyed it
dang that chuck fight was brutal. awesome video but i was really hoping you'd fight red 👉👈
This was a great video! Very interesting, I love crazy Pokémon challenge runs. :)
