'Just like that!' XD The catching tutorial was awesome. Also Alpharad's victory dance while Jaiden casually slips in that 'I can totally animate epic fight scene' moment again.
Jaiden does a really good job of communicating the attachment to pokemon in nuzlockes. Having watched and played a million nuzlockes, I kinda found that I lost that emotional connection to the pokemon. Jaiden brings me back into that mindset, which is what's so fun about her animations to me.
I think a big part of it is that she emphasizes when they do something clutch or sacrifices for the greater good. Meanwhile in regular Nuzlocks it can be easy to forget what a particular mon has done and lose the impact of its death.
If i had a nickel for everytime a youtuber really needed to know what chicken sandwich Jacob got, i would have two nickels, witch isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice.
Fun fact; there has never actually been a 10 year old player character in the games, despite the common misconception about trainer ages. The youngest confirmed PC is Red, at 11 years old.
I thought for sure one of the games mentioned the PC being ten, but I've played so many hacks by now that it's possible I'm getting memories mixed up. I do know that some of the games have the PC be quite a bit older than ten, like 14-16 range.
@@krystallinekris The only time I remember an exact age being given in the games themselves is Sun and Moon, I remember being given a dialogue choice to say how old you are (both choices result in 11). Speaking of Sun & Moon, that's the only time an age requirement was mentioned in the games. Trainers become eligible to take the Island Challenge when they turn 11.
To be fair to Alpharad, final evolutions, starters, and legendaries all have terrible catch rates, and the only real way to improve them early game is to lower the pokemon's HP. Combine that with the fact that all the pokemon have a lower max HP due to their levels and he only had regular pokeballs to catch them with, and you realize he was basically set up for failure. You'll notice that in the mid/late game he becomes a lot better at catching them, most likely due to having better pokeballs and better ways of raising their catch rates.
Previously watched PokemonChallenge's reaction and he confirmed what you said, that this is full circle for him with his original reaction and then being included in the finale. Really cool to see.
My assumption is that they had to go into the E4 with teams of five because of the type overlap rule. I don’t think they showed the full boxes/pairings but that probably limited them heaps.
18:01 every person i have seen reacting to this video has commented on needing to know about the chicken sandwich. What kind it was, where he got it from, etc. it's one of those 'f- everything else! we want, no we NEED to know about the sanwich!' ...which makes a lot of us viewers of the responding watchers ultimatly wonder, '...yeah what was so special about that sanwich?'
I had heard from Alpharad that it was from a local restaurant, he also mentioned it was really good. Yobgs' reaction to this nuzlocke is where I had heard it from. Cause he had also asked if it was from a common chain restaurant, like Chic-fil A.
4:05 THANK YOU FOR THE VALIDATION you’re the first reactor on this video to show any appreciation for one of my favorite Pokémon and that alone was worth a sub
For the starters im always scooping Torterra and Mankey tbh. Primeape is my favorite Pokemon and Torterra is just, cool. Knowing Alpharad he probably killed half of them for the content. He lives for the memes
I'm doing a Soul-link currently and... I have genuinely never been as devastated in a nuzlocke. I lost one of our best pairs and I felt HORRIBLE. I lost my Gengar, which was linked to his Metagross, so an insane combo, and I fricken lost it in a gym battle
You're the second reactor to this video that I've seen demand to know what kind of chicken sandwich it is. I'm surprised how forgiving both of you have been toward Chick-fil-A considering how much hate I've seen them get lol
@@guacamollie2460 Giving them money also pays the minimum wage employee who has nothing to do with their politics and just needs a job to survive. And you get to enjoy a chicken sandwich in the mean time
Jaiden uploaded "What really happened in our soul link nuzlocke" a few months ago which shows their gameplay and it's pretty fun to watch and listen to the random conversations between her and Jacob
for evry supermarket guy who at some point had to deal with little kid stealing silly stuff in your store, i DARE you to tell me in my face "but you a grown man." 😅
Lovely video! Really enjoyed the balance of fun and game-critique. Sorry if I didn't read a similar comment and I'm repeating things, but I'd suggest letting the credits on the original video run in future if you include most of the rest of it, cos the Jaiden team (or whoever on whatever animation) deserves it.
7:29 "Okay, it's 4x resistant, this thing has GOTTA survive Razor Leaf." 19:13 ... Dude... Legendaries only have, like... double the BST of most Pokemon. Alpha and Jaiden aren't going "Oh we can't level up past the gym leader's ace". *It's not hard to tear legendaries apart, dude.*
I just wanna say this because it doesnt get the respect it deserves even though I personally hate it. Cradilly is a monster and has single handedly ended more runs than most legendaries have for me.
My favorite part (I don't care if I'm almost a year late) was actually at the beginning, before you started Jaiden's video. First time seeing you, and my tired brain went *Ginger Beard Man* then my brain took your beard and put it on a ginger bread man, and I had a giggle.
it sucks this is the last pokemon nuzlocke she will do! I loved them so much! But i get it takes a long time to do all this. I will surely miss them tho!
24:27 i wouldn't call giga drain and ancient power nothing on the azumeril u could assume it had sap sipper and she ran out of ancient power getting no boost on palkia but she had no excuse for palkia (well and ice beam empoleon but i assume it had earth power)
Even Ice Beam is neutral on Palkia, and Empoleon isn't the best attacker, Ice Beam isn't STAB, and even if Palkia didn't have Earth Power, it would have won the war of attrition, most likely. Also, she could have ran out of Giga Drains on the Palkia. And even if not, Giga Drain is only 5 PP in this gen, I believe, and only like 60 BP. Azumarill has decent enough defenses, especially with Aqua Ring, to live enough for Lance to heal it. Cradilly doesn't have the best attacking stats, either.
@@krystallinekris 1:empoleon is known for attacking as are all no venasuar starters 2 i looked up the level up moveset earth power is in that last 4 unless it's the strongest dragonit 3: azumeril is not tanky and giga drain even with rain boosted aqua ring would 2 shot 4: its a grass rock type
@@easternwoyer3876 @eastern woyer 1)Azumarill is tanky enough for a Cradily. It's got base 100 HP and base... 80 defenses. 2) Cradily has base 80 Sp. Attack. Like I said, in this gen Giga Drain is only base 60 power. Remember that this isn't even EV trained at all because it was in the box up until the E4, so there's no random Sp. Attack EV's on it (especially not enough to matter), so if she had bad IV's and / or a bad Nature, it's going to be weaker, too. It would probably be enough to three-shot Azumarill, assuming she didn't use it on Palkia, epscially with Aqua Ring. The HP sucked back (and it would be a lot) would likely be the reason Cradilly survived without needing heals for a while. 3) Also, I guess I forgot Empoleon had that much Sp. Attack since in comp, it's mainly a Stealth Rocker / Defogger with a great defensive typing. Still, it's a palkia and Ice Beam isn't STAB with a neutral hit and also assuming she taught it Ice Beam, but I concede that thing about Empoleon not being a Special Attacker. 4) I know what Cradily's type is. That's why if it was Huge Power, Cradily wasn't getting one shot and likely was getting three shot in order for Jaiden to chip away at it (with recovery). She probably had Leech Seed on it. That's also only if she taught it Giga Drain via TM, since in Gen 4 it doesn't even learn Giga Drain by level up. 5) We don't know the specifics because she didn't show anything in-game about it. I don't think it was Sap Sipper either because I'm sure she would have mentioned it with all the other bullcrap she had to go through, it would just be icing on the cake that the last mon in the entire run was immune to one of her STAB types. After all, like you said, she likely only had Ancient Power as a STAB rock-type move on Cradily. She also said Azumarill hit back "much harder" than she did, and if Azumarill doesn't have Huge Power, it's likely hitting just as hard as Cradilly or "slightly harder," not "Much harder" since Cradilly has about the same defenses (maybe slightly better overall) as Azumarill; less Health but better actual Defense stats and Azumarill's base Attack is about the same as Cradilly's. Again, this is just speculating on semantics of what she's shown and said. There's no way to know for sure and I'm over-analyzing a for-fun animation again. I really need to stop doing this.
Soul Links *are* really fun and I'll be damned if I don't get more people doing them, scheduling be damned, life be damned IT WILL HAPPEN. Already got two of my CC friends to do em with me, almost done with one (here's hoping nothing goes horribly wrong) Excited to talk through that with them and get that up
From what I heard, at the end of this one, Jaiden said she wasn't doing anymore Nuzlockes for her channel. So, where as she might play more Pokemon games for content, I don't think she will be doing anymore Nuzlockes.
I would pick Torterra out of the first three. Not because it's a starter, but because I have a strong affinity for Diamond/Pearl/Platinum. Plus, ground-type with grass is a solid combination. What it lacks in speed it makes up for in physical power, especially considering Earthquake. It counters its fire-type weakness with its ground-type moves, water-type is neutral (and let's face it, water types are common even in regular randomizers like this one) while grass is good to attack it with... and immunity to electric attacks are a huge bonus for me. I would hands down go for a type immunity - immediately makes one of the seventeen (this gen) types a non-concern. And in this generation, I value that more than Tentacruel's immunity to being poisoned because it's never going to kill in the overworld if it lingers after the battle. Meaning you can literally just walk it off then use a potion if you're out of antidotes, or flee to the PC if you're near enough to an exit without potentially running into other trainers. As for Jaiden's choice, easy decision for me. Ariados is a hard no - I'm afraid of spiders. Wynaut really doesn't start with the best moves, so while it takes time for Mankey to evolve, the fighting type has the edge for me. Again with how common water-types are across all the species, also pretty common are normal and rock types, both of which are weak to fighting. Not to mention fighting is the only type that normal is weak to.
Torterra is I assume at least half a grass type right? Kyogre is a water type plus it was in the first gym so the levels are significantly lower then if you encounter it normally.
@@invividcolor kyogre should only have waterpulse at lvl9 so mankey and potions can deal with it. it learns ancient power between lvl10 and 15 tho so its good that it was the first gym and not the second lol.
@@invividcolor Thanks for the encouragement. I was thinking of perhaps using a daily journal to take note of what occurs and when. Then perhaps I could try animating the experience. While I'm decent at drawing, I'm brand new to animating, so it won't be nearly as good as Jaiden's or Young Yong's animation.
@@taqresu5865 There are capture cards you can use as well, you just need to dig deep to find them. For instance, my PS2. I had to go searching on Ebay and Amazon and stuff to find the capture card I needed because, well, the newer ones simply don't make connectors for old systems like that, and the Elgato site (which an older model of Elgato was the only thing that I knew could record a PS2 and sounded like the most reliable) obviously only sold the newer models. They did have some older models, but none old enough for a PS2. Long story short, you can probably find a capture card, or a way to record your handheld. I've seen people do it in the past and on stream. However, I don't think you can record both screens at once. Anyway, hope you have a good time, however you end up doing it.
@@krystallinekris Thanks for the encouragement and the advice. Wouldn't I also need a PC and a Moniter to actually use the Capture Card. I only access the internet through my PS4 and Android, I don't own a computer.
@@taqresu5865 Ah, that's true. I guess I just assumed you had a PC because it's rare someone doesn't have one in this day and age, even if it's an old pos.
Really, randomized legendaries in these runs aren't that dangerous until later parts, because randomized pokemon in enemy teams only have levelup movesets. Though I guess you already know that. Heck, Deoxys has probably the worst moves possible at low levels. The only offensive move it gets before level 25 are Wrap and Night Shade. And the level 25 move is Knock Off.
Probably Jacob was like “I can probably hit this one more time” and then failed multiple times Wouldn’t be surprised honestly I think I’ve made that same mistake before
They fixed the Salamence type and Onix type like some time last year or the one before that I think which is sad bc that meme was always humorous and now it's dead
I love Tentacruel and Torterra, Well okay I love Ludicolo too, But only if it's evolved from a Lotad, Because Lombre and Ludicolo learn no good grass moves in gen 3 and 4, In fact Ludicolo learns no moves at all after level 1.
What did I miss?! What was your favorite part?!
Alpharad killing all of the encounters
'Just like that!' XD The catching tutorial was awesome. Also Alpharad's victory dance while Jaiden casually slips in that 'I can totally animate epic fight scene' moment again.

see every blissey in existence which makes me so angry
Unfortunately you did miss something the very end where jaden let's us know that this is the end of the animated nuzlock series
Alpharad: tries to get a good mon
Torterra: *and i took that personally*
Torterra was not about it at all
OH MY GOD I JUST REALIZED, Turtig killed multiple encounters for Jaiden in her solo Nuzlocke and now Torterra is doing it again!!!

I think it really sets in when you're new to Nuzlockes, and tends to fade off when you've attempted several of then in your career.
Exactly! The emotions and attachment are communicated so well
I think a big part of it is that she emphasizes when they do something clutch or sacrifices for the greater good. Meanwhile in regular Nuzlocks it can be easy to forget what a particular mon has done and lose the impact of its death.

13:20 - "Box whatever else"??? Bro, the "whatever else" was their STARTERS! You don't just box your STARTER! (/hj)
At the 5 minute mark on this video you already spoiled 2 things:
And jaun
Yeah, Legendaries at low levels have horrible move pools. Since they aren't supposed to actually be encountered at those levels.
Torterra is I assume at least half a grass type right? Kyogre is a water type plus it was in the first gym so the levels are significantly lower then if you encounter it normally.
But Jaiden fought the Kyogre, right? She didn't have Tort.
@@invividcolor
kyogre should only have waterpulse at lvl9 so mankey and potions can deal with it.
it learns ancient power between lvl10 and 15 tho so its good that it was the first gym and not the second lol.
@@invividcolor …oh wait…
I randomized platinum and got Ninjask with Aeroblast
I like the duck with a hat
I would take torterra and mankey
8:13 it sadly got fixed
I aactually did the math to see what the chances were for chuck to have a pokemon with snow cloak.
The chances are 1 in 99 (rounded up)
Yeah, you pronounced his name right 👍
+1 me
Hey, do you know about Young Yong Tales? He has done a Nuzlocke video too and it’s quite entertaining.
Also, you missed the text at the end.
Jaiden has inspired me to try a Nuzlocke, except I can't actually record mine because I'm using a physical DS Lite, not an emulator lol
No worries! Just do it for fun!
@@invividcolor Thanks for the encouragement.
I was thinking of perhaps using a daily journal to take note of what occurs and when. Then perhaps I could try animating the experience.
While I'm decent at drawing, I'm brand new to animating, so it won't be nearly as good as Jaiden's or Young Yong's animation.
@@taqresu5865 There are capture cards you can use as well, you just need to dig deep to find them. For instance, my PS2. I had to go searching on Ebay and Amazon and stuff to find the capture card I needed because, well, the newer ones simply don't make connectors for old systems like that, and the Elgato site (which an older model of Elgato was the only thing that I knew could record a PS2 and sounded like the most reliable) obviously only sold the newer models. They did have some older models, but none old enough for a PS2.
Long story short, you can probably find a capture card, or a way to record your handheld. I've seen people do it in the past and on stream. However, I don't think you can record both screens at once.
Anyway, hope you have a good time, however you end up doing it.
@@krystallinekris Thanks for the encouragement and the advice.
Wouldn't I also need a PC and a Moniter to actually use the Capture Card. I only access the internet through my PS4 and Android, I don't own a computer.
@@taqresu5865 Ah, that's true. I guess I just assumed you had a PC because it's rare someone doesn't have one in this day and age, even if it's an old pos.
HOW DOES A GRASS GROUND TYPE KILL CHARZARD
the frostlass crit did matter
Oooof. That hurts
Really, randomized legendaries in these runs aren't that dangerous until later parts, because randomized pokemon in enemy teams only have levelup movesets.
Though I guess you already know that.
Heck, Deoxys has probably the worst moves possible at low levels.
The only offensive move it gets before level 25 are Wrap and Night Shade.
And the level 25 move is Knock Off.
TH-cam: another one!
Me: amogus
Box weepingbell for Not 2 grass type but... abomasnow and torterra already 2 grass
idk how Jacob killed Gyarados and Charizard with Torterra
Palkai created a mess for Jaiden
8:40 low lvl legendaries dont have that much great moves
Probably Jacob was like “I can probably hit this one more time” and then failed multiple times
Wouldn’t be surprised honestly I think I’ve made that same mistake before
It’s a spicy Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich
They fixed the Salamence type and Onix type like some time last year or the one before that I think which is sad bc that meme was always humorous and now it's dead
Torchic-ken Sandwich
this is the way
All hail dillydoo
Don't take the stone Evolution pokemon because they have bad level up Move sets
I im actually 10 im scared of school they think im a thith
From the one's that jaiden got i would take mankey
Ludicolo because he’s so funny and cute looking
Jaiden is the one who kills dyoxs ( don't know how to spell it)
You're the fifth person that I've watched react... I'm addicted please help!
You should react to the reaction of pchal! Lol Meta
Haha, can you imagine?
I love Tentacruel and Torterra,
Well okay I love Ludicolo too,
But only if it's evolved from a Lotad,
Because Lombre and Ludicolo learn no good grass moves in gen 3 and 4,
In fact Ludicolo learns no moves at all after level 1.
@Cristian Dimuro thanks I guess...
I don't really like any of those starters Jacob got
I know they are good but-
I'd probably go with island tortoise
You're such a sweet guy and you have a really pretty voice!!
Haha, this is so kind! Thank you!
You have the same ring as me! There's some meaning to yours, or just a acessory?
It's my wedding ring! You're talking about the black one with the gold line, right?
Aridos has NO good moves she made the right choice taking Mankey
The opposite gender rule is only for Lovelockes not Soul Links.
I feel like I’ve deffo seen soul links use the rule, but I could be misremembering
Nah the opposite gender rule has been in many Soul Links.
DILLIDOO!
Isn't the opposite gender rule from WedLocks!
