IT'S TIME! The most highly requested type of all time, but the hardest to do a viable hardcore nuzlocke for logistically... but I found a way. Hope you guys enjoy this one! Don't forget to hit that Subscribe button - we're on the journey to 150k!
a suggestion to make your gen 5 runs more tougher is challenge mode. I think it's a really good idea since it also increases the level cap by quite a bit.
Yea I can see that. I like it personally (it's a good challenge) but for people just trying to play the game normally and possibly quickly I can see how it can get irritating.
While a Pokemon is registered into the Hall of Fame, custom backgrounds appear depending on it's typing. That is so neat, another reason to love the Gen 5 games
PokeWalker, GBA Insertions, Dream Radar and DreamWorld should all be accesible Bc it doesn't involve trading with another game and it's a fun experience using new and different Pokémon
I totally agree, I saw a gen 5 steel-type run recently using a Bronzor from dream radar. It’s awesome to see runs using Pokémon that you don’t normally get access to and if it makes the run possible, that’s all the more reason to do it!
@@bongchoof Uh, a joke? The dude almost lost a mon on almost every gym battle. It might seem like a 'joke' because he's just actually REALLY good at nuzlocking. It wouldn't even have been possible without a yache berry, and as 'proficient' as I am playing since RBY knowing competitive mechanics doing a bunch of hardcore nuzlockes of my own I DEFINITELY would've lost at least five attempts. Actually scratch that, I would've NEVER gotten the Yache berry so I wouldn't have ever beat this probably. Dragon types are strong, he had some strong options, he also had to play really well to make sure he saved them until the end.
To add to that Zweilous sweep's amazingness; because it got Mummy from Cofagrigus, its ability Hustle was also cancelled out. The attack boost was already set up, so the loss of the Hustle boost was manageable, but the accuracy drop was also lost! So if you didn't get Mummy'd, you may have had to deal with Crunch missing at some point and losing Zweilous. But Mummy was used to your advantage! TWICE! Accidental brilliance is best brilliance
@@azzydreamurr5677 Well, considering Marshall specializes in Fighting types and Iris' Pokémon would each one-hit Zweilous, AND there's no way to get rid of Hustle the way he could with Mummy, it's no surprise Zweilous wouldn't see much use lol
Yea. Personally I am a completionist and a very slow player cuz I like to do everything. But for players who just want to play the game it can get irritating. Though It does give you free items!
This video reminded me how much I think Serperior should be a dual grass/dragon type. Not just because it's my favourite starter line of all time, it genuinely fits.
@@nerddwarf I don't think it makes a huge difference if it's just Serperior that's a dragon type, and not the previous evolutions, and either way the grass type is horrible in gen 5, so it would balance it more.
@@luitjenapol2815 Dragons were always late game until the apple in Sword&Shit Dragons were always meant to directly counter the starters (and Pikachu) This got less serious with time, but this is the SOLE reason Charizard and Gyarados are not dragons. In Generation 5 there was 5 families with Dragon-typing that were not legendaries or Pseudo-legendaries (I'm in the belief that all mythicals are legandary, but not all legendaries are mythical) There were 11* in Gen 7 Kingdra Flygon Altaria Druddigon Haxorus Dragalge Tyrantrum Noivern Turtonator Drampa *Naganadel And 4 more in Sword&Shit Apple Vish Zolt Duraludon
@@nerddwarf I'm not sure what you're trying to say, but the dragon/grass typing isn't even very good. It has 6 weaknesses, including a quad weakness to ice, and fire still hits it for normal damage. It does have 3 quad resistances, in water, grass and electric, but grass already resisted those types before, so it doesn't make a huge difference. It's still not good against fire types, just not as bad, and most pokemon could have a move that hits it for super effective. It's not like you have to use serperior against fire types, you could just catch some other water type.
@Lazy Marine ( B O O 🎃) not only that, but they are very rare in most games, and they tend to need a lot of XP to level up, which can make runs without grinding very problematic
33:15- the funny thing is, u can go for dig b/c of levitate. That'll allow u to go for dig , and even on earthquake, flygon won't be affected by earthquake
Sawk: You cannot oneshot me for I have Sturdy! Haxorus: huh? Y'all hear sumthin? Something about a Strong Day? Luckily You've mistaken me for someone who Cares!
That's what I thought too, though it's kinda strange that a Pokemon can still remain airborne while underground, possibly a mechanical oversight from the developers?
I liked pokestar studios a lot in terms of how much post game content it provided. Like many other features of B2W2, it was a great part of the experience for me. That being said, being forced to save and participate was what I didn't like about it. I know that it's a part of roxie's story and I appreciate them going in depth with her dad, but at the same time we could have also just watched the production instead of making one ourselves. Very minor criticism, but overall I liked it outside of not being able to do nuzlockes or challenge runs without a dedicated save file to it, which was much more inconvenient back when other resources were not as accessible. My vote is that it's good though. Great vid!
Honestly, I feel like myself and most everyone else dislikes the forced tutorial of Pokéstar Studios with the studio itself being either neutral or fun for people (it's the latter for me, having my Emboar flex it's star status while wrecking everyone is such a power trip :D)
When I got Black 2, I played the game normally until I reach the pokestar studio. After that, all I did was play the various pokestar movies. The game became "pokestar: the game" for me. After I finished those, I stopped playing the game altogether. I don't even remember if I enjoyed them.
Was just wondering, can anyone post where you can find these 'fan made dreamworld servers' he mentioned in the video are, never got the chance to use it back in the day and I'm curious
If you're comfortable with being able to extract your save to the PC, there's a tool called BW_tool that can inject the mons to the save file. As far as I can tell there's no fan made servers.
Yeah, also wish he linked to it in the video description or something, would love to try these fan made servers out! if anyone else has recommendations (besides frago-roc, thank you!) that'd be great!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but since krookidile didn't have any ability like mold breaker, your levitate would have activated even if you were underground during your dig. That would have made the possible earthquake useless during Grimsley's fight. heres a link to someone proving it in Sun and Moon. th-cam.com/video/udrzw5Tnr1M/w-d-xo.html
I loved pokestar studios. I did so many of the movies as a kid, and really enjoyed it as a side game. I don’t think it should be mandatory to continue the game, but it’s inclusion is something else that made Unova/Gen 5 special for me, like the contests did in previous games. I’ve always been a fan of side quests and minigames, and the studio made the world seem more lived in. It was so funny that you could ruin a movie with a terrible one liner (I never did bc I felt bad about it, but it’s still funny). But yeah, definitely should not have been required to progress.
I remember spending hours completing every movie. Some of them where harder than the game itself. I remember one movie requires you to get a freeze. Meaning nine out of ten times you auto fail
@@kylesmith9573 I don’t remember that one specifically but yes, I remember doing two or three of the movies to the third sequel, then again with my own Pokémon
I believe if a Pokemon has the Flying Type or Levitate and uses Dig, Earthquake will still not harm it. Unless the opponent has Mold Breaker (for Levitate) which Krookidile does not.
These challenges are fun to watch. Definitely makes me want to consider trying one. Maybe I'll poke around with it when those remakes launch. Dragons made for an interesting challenge. All the more so just lasting until you could assemble an actual team.
From my memory, honestly I absolutely fell in love with Pokéstar Studios For someone who didn't and still barely knows about things like Hollywood and celebrities, it genuinely felt like my own story/adventure rather than the main one we all participate in 💕 The same feeling is with the contests in DPP and ORAS, especially ORAS 👀 Granted, I haven't played Pokémon BW2 in about a decade, with my thoughts being very foggy 😆
I love Pokéstar Studios. It has so many unique gimmicks, and some nice cameos in Gym Leaders (AKA mainly Sabrina) and the nice art for the movies were amazing. I remember playing that all the time, I even got all endings on all movies so that is a fun, yet useless achievement.
As someone who's made films and has worked in the industry, I was pleasantly surprised at how good Pokestar Studios was of a translation of the filmmaking process using Pokemon mechanics. Especially how bad RNG simulates all the bad takes during a scene. For a normal/completionist playthrough, I think it's fun. For a nuzlocke, it's a little annoying but the fact that making at least 1 movie gives you free lemonades makes it not too bad in my opinion.
I LOVE pokestar studios in concept, but i DESPISE its implementation, ESPECIALLY as someone who plays through blazeblack and volt white 2 a crap ton. It should be entirely optional (as in, the scout mentions it to you after roxies gym, and you head up there and see the second scene between roxie and her dad (where her dad goes 'your right' and she goes 'i mean, duh, but also you weren't THAT bad') plays, and then you CAN do pokestar studios stuff, OR continue the story naturally, instead of that 5 minute cutscene every. time. Also, did you know their's a medal achievement for beating a pokestar studio scenario/script in a unique way creating a unique movie ending? there should be SOME kind of hints in the scripts for how to achieve those unique, wacky endings, cause some of them are nonsensical without looking it up (or getting lucky when guessing).
Like or not, POKESTAR should have been optional or there should be some reward waiting for us in the end. Also, they massacared BRYCEN so bad. In black and white he was talking to shadow triads even when noone could see them and now he is playing with pawniard and vullalby?
I think pokéstar studios is kinda fun, I've definitely spent a lot of time on it. The intro isn't even that long, like I highly doubt people really are genuinely THAT bothered about having to use one force palm for a side quest.
Honestly, Frustration is a really terrible move. All you need to do to make a Pokemon like you is walk a lot in the lower friendship levels. And it's actively really difficult to make it lose friendship. (The best way I know off the top of my head is constantly lose battles to pokemon that are way stronger then you, but that's not a lot of friendship being taken off AND is not possible in a Nuzlocke)
I haven’t played Black 2 in years but from what I remember Pokestar studios was ok I guess. Did it need to be mandatory, no not at all, was it good enough to include in the game, yes. It would’ve been bet if it didn’t waste your time.
At 25:55 it reminded me that when you beat the game and return there, the couple has split up. I read somewhere that the first letter of the names of the NPC's of the mission the guy gives you make an acronym which spells out JILT which means to break up, sad.
This was one of the more unique nuzlocke challenges I've watched. Skyla's fight was insane, and the utilization of Join Avenue was genius - I never paid it any mind.
I like pokestar studios? Kinda i guest I like recording movies/films for it and thats why I like it? absolutely not, its tedious and the people in the studios are mean I like pokestar studios bc you can get a ridiculous amount of lemonades ? Hell yeah.
Frustration is such a wierd move since it's only viable during the first few levels after a pokemon is caught. It honestly falls into the constrict level of uselessness
You can use bitter healing items to reduce friendship to 0 and make it more effective, but it's legit easier to maintain friendship then deal with the hassle of keeping it low. So yeah Return just invalidates it.
pokestar studios is dreadful it offers nothing to the storyline and is just a waste of effort. whichever game freak employee designed it is stupid and doesnt deserve any praise for it, its dumb stupid and crap.
Frustration is kinda weird in my opinion because pokemon all start at 70 friendship so at base it has 74 base power, which isnt bad but it means the only way to use it to it's full potential is to use buneary who has a base 0 friendship or to feed it bitter herbs till it hates you
Should take a look at Kalos for a Dragon run. Trading in a lvl 5 Dragon from another game as your starter would be fine imo. Just like with other games you can always box it once the first mon of the run is caught which will be before the 2nd gym. Kalos also has a good variety of Dragons spread throughout it and 2 gyms that are counters to the type.
I loved the theater for the free items when you get popular selling 12 lemonades is one of the fastest ways to make money not to mention you get 4k per cookie for the gourmet that you also get at the theater
PokeStar Studios was just silly fun that I was all for. Though I have to imagine that missed attacks due to inaccuracy was... reminiscent of screw-ups in actual recordings in real life. Also testing what lines work right. It was fun and I genuinely did every part of it with my own team to get the fancy entrance for them.
Dragon hc nuzlockes are always so interesting to watch because it's so difficult to protect these weak early stage dragons until they can evolve and absolutely demolish everything
Love that Flygon is in your top 3 fav...and that it made the thumbnail. Its my #1 fav all-time, which is why its Shiny version is inked the length of my left forearm
The first time I played W2 I wasn't a fan of PokeStar Studios, but going back to it and really exploring how much you can do with it I found it really fun.

a suggestion please do a fire type only run of pokemon pearl it would be pretty difficult
You should try and do a Fairy type hardcore nuzlocke
I don't hate it , i play on emulator and can't get past it
I feel I'd like the PokerStars studios more if I wasn't forced to do it

I think it's cringe no matter what.
Yea I can see that. I like it personally (it's a good challenge) but for people just trying to play the game normally and possibly quickly I can see how it can get irritating.

I think that if it allows a run to be done, yeah. But all the add ons can be tricky to aquire.

Thats so crazy, thats the kinda stuff you'd see in that one pokemon online game thatd make noobs salty
I didn't think Dragon was a possible run within the rules except for maybe SWSH and USUM, can't wait to see how you did this
I tried in ultra sun it was a massive slog and I had to restart with a bunch of time but somehow I just barley won
@Lazy Marine ( B O O 🎃) no the bad thing is that at the beginning of the game there are literally no dragon types outside of 3 of the games.

Another great vid Silph. Lakitutu avoiding the Weezing explosion was clutch.
What a funny game design choice that there's pokemon that evolve at a higher level than that region's champion's team.
That's one of the problems with Gen 5, a lot of Pokémon have high evolutionary LVs xD

you should have done the chad move and transferred in a lv5 giratina from dream radar.

This was one of the more unique nuzlocke challenges I've watched. Skyla's fight was insane, and the utilization of Join Avenue was genius - I never paid it any mind.
I like pokestar studios? Kinda i guest
I like recording movies/films for it and thats why I like it? absolutely not, its tedious and the people in the studios are mean
I like pokestar studios bc you can get a ridiculous amount of lemonades ? Hell yeah.
Frustration is such a wierd move since it's only viable during the first few levels after a pokemon is caught. It honestly falls into the constrict level of uselessness
You can use bitter healing items to reduce friendship to 0 and make it more effective, but it's legit easier to maintain friendship then deal with the hassle of keeping it low. So yeah Return just invalidates it.
33:15 you can go for dig because Flygon has levitate. even if you're digging, earthquake can't hit because you have levitate
33:13 Wait, but you CAN Dig, because your Flygon has Levitate. Weird, if you think about it, but it works!
pokestar studios is dreadful it offers nothing to the storyline and is just a waste of effort. whichever game freak employee designed it is stupid and doesnt deserve any praise for it, its dumb stupid and crap.
I do like Pokestar Studios, it's cool as it spins Pokemon to more of a puzzle game, but the tutorial doesn't show this off well tbh.
I got a challenge for You. My nationality is french. So I want to see if you could beat a hardcore nuslocke playing a french file.
Frustration is kinda weird in my opinion because pokemon all start at 70 friendship so at base it has 74 base power, which isnt bad but it means the only way to use it to it's full potential is to use buneary who has a base 0 friendship or to feed it bitter herbs till it hates you
Pokestar studios is REALLY annoying. But if it wasnt so cringe and was optiona, I might visit it in the postgame.
I'm pretty neutral on pokestar studios, its fun but they shouldn't have forced it on you, and I'm not sad it was only in one game.
“Given that we just met him I’m assuming he kinda hates us at the moment” did my anxiety co-write your script or something?
I liked pokestar studios, while stupid and wierd I liked trying to go for the slternate endings to movies and eventually got the gold statue of myself
Should take a look at Kalos for a Dragon run. Trading in a lvl 5 Dragon from another game as your starter would be fine imo. Just like with other games you can always box it once the first mon of the run is caught which will be before the 2nd gym. Kalos also has a good variety of Dragons spread throughout it and 2 gyms that are counters to the type.
isnt there that horde bagon you can get in the alola games? and a level 10 salamence?
How did you access the dream world druddigon? I can't seem to find anything online about the fan servers you mentioned
wouldn't flygon have been immune to earthquake while underground since it has levitate?
I loved the theater for the free items when you get popular selling 12 lemonades is one of the fastest ways to make money not to mention you get 4k per cookie for the gourmet that you also get at the theater
People like pokestars
Me : impossible! After getting force once i think everyone hate it😕😕
There are two opinions about PokeStar Studios.
1- Those who hate it
2- Those who are wrong
Does Levitate on Flygon get negated when underground with Dig to let you get hit by Earthquake?
Since you were using the dream world anyway , you should have also used dratini , bagin and gible
Dude should do a diamond/pearl hardcore nuzlock with only fire type pokemon
Pokestar Studios is trash. A waste of time, and a waste of the development team's effort.
I love the pokestar studios, lol. Always do the first few movies at least.
Can anyone link me to a fanmade Pokémon Dream World server? I’d love to try it out
you are so fun
wowza
fun fact, eq doesnt hurt flygon when he digs since flygon has levitate
I'm sorry, I don't like polestar studios :( (I'm not rly sad:)
PokerStars sucked I was not able to do the things I wanted because it took so long
I actually like the polestar theater as it's rather interesting And fun too
Nah pokestar sucked mainly cauze its forced
PokeStar Studios was just silly fun that I was all for. Though I have to imagine that missed attacks due to inaccuracy was... reminiscent of screw-ups in actual recordings in real life. Also testing what lines work right. It was fun and I genuinely did every part of it with my own team to get the fancy entrance for them.
Algorithmic help 😀
I saw Flygon and clicked here
Pokestar studios is god awful! I hated being forced to do it
He lost on the rock gym because he used trapinch a non dragon
I subbed because Mayweather got boxed
Doing the same thing but flying, damn its real hard
Pokestar studios can burn in the eternal flames.
Considering that you're the second he's talking to, isn't he cheating on them with you?
Well... poke studio... ins't to bad on my opinion!
Can you do ice types? I'm interested in seeing what the earliest ice type pokemon you can get is!
Dragon hc nuzlockes are always so interesting to watch because it's so difficult to protect these weak early stage dragons until they can evolve and absolutely demolish everything
Some of the baby Dragons are OP AF though, Dragon Rage is a broken move early game.
@@devilrider39000000dragon rage is huge until 3rd or 4th gym, from 3rd to 7th gym could be hard I think
Love that Flygon is in your top 3 fav...and that it made the thumbnail. Its my #1 fav all-time, which is why its Shiny version is inked the length of my left forearm
33:20 you could use dig because levitate still works
The first time I played W2 I wasn't a fan of PokeStar Studios, but going back to it and really exploring how much you can do with it I found it really fun.
33:20
You have levitate so you won’t take damage
