A detail that probably wasn‘t noticed by many: the balls the Speals are in! The twins are in the same ball, Big Bertha in a heavy ball, team leader Alpha in a premier… Such magnificent attention to detail!
I saw that too! The twins are in a repeat ball which is fitting.
What about the fact that he says arceus-damm instead of goddamm
Anita is in a dive ball, but I couldn’t find footage of Nelson being sent in that showed the ball
@SilverDragonMoon18 Nelson was in a Luxury Ball; we can see it when he's dropped in the Dead Box. 😭
Alpha, the leader: Premier Ball
Bertha, the big tank: Heavy Ball (for Pokémon that weigh a lot)
Anita: Dive Ball
Twins Eliza and Horatio: Repeat Ball
Nelson, the one who takes one for the team: Luxury Ball (ball that makes Pokémon grow friendly more quickly)
> All the pokemon are spheals
> You still decided to have two of them in particular be twins
Truly incredible writing
True and funny
I mean they probably were twins, if he spent quite a bit of time breeding them, where the others may all have different parents.
gotta admit Bertha's baby being named Nelson brought a tear to my eye
Tear? More like TEARS
Same.
The story comes full circle and is incredibly wholesome. It warmed my heart when I saw that.
Nelson reincarnated
FRRR
Same 😭
Oh wow I wasn't expecting to get so attached to these 6 Spheal so quickly that Nelson getting mauled to death by Archie's damn monster of a Sharpedo made me tear up and exclaim "Nelson noooooo!" Truly an absolute masterclass in storytelling.
This Proves Spheals Care For Their Comrades
The animation. The mock-up documents. The grizzled soldier voice for the narration. The ‘cover story’ (how does a grown adult agent look like a ten year old boy? I love it.) The lore behind every choice and spheal. I knew from the moment I saw this thumbnail I’d adore this video but I still wasn’t prepared.
THE PELIPPER RANT!! THE TWIST!! THE FALLEN SOLDIER!! MR FLYGON IM OBSESSED WITH THIS VIDEO
The epilogue… I got so emotional during it
You can say that louder
I wasn’t prepared either!
"How do you do, fellow kids?" ~ grown adult agent, presumably
Nuzlockes started as stories. The entire point was to get attached to these characters and detail all their best moments. In the shift to a fast-paced TH-cam algorithm, the stories were often lost. A hardcore nuzlocke of one creator became almost interchangeable with that of another creator because there wasn’t enough time to get attached to the characters. A story needs conflict and stakes. When you treat the world as a real world, the stakes get so much higher.
Thank you for breaking the mold and returning nuzlockes to their roots. This new method of storytelling is yet another example of how you shift the paradigm.
Can’t wait to see what you do next!
Agree so much! I love this format above everything else HG puts up, and any other nuzlocke video.
absolutely! tsf does a great job doing this too
As someone who wants to tell stories via the semi-uncontrolled medium of Nuzlockes, I found it extremely difficult to get enough material to TELL a good story before I got good at Nuzlockes. I can't tell a story if my characters drop like flies because then I'm not attached to them any more than the reader would be, especially if the second or third Gym wipes me (because tbh I'm kind of a scrub despite my game knowledge.)
It's only been recently, watching the non-story, non-emotional heavily-mechanics-driven players, that I've started to shape myself into someone who's good enough to keep people alive and tell their stories properly. Most recently, I tried FireRed using only Team Rocket Pokemon (before Flygon posted his, I swear) and was stuck with just a Rattata before Brock.
I got myself an Adamant Guts Rattata (seeing as it's my 'starter' I allowed myself this largesse of seeking optimal conditions just like I would any gifted starter) and pre-poisoned him before Brock. I still had to heal a couple times, but my lil guy did it! You can't tell me that an ex-Rocket Rattata, released because the grunt he was issued to decided he was useless, taking down the Rock Gym Leader by himself ISN'T a great story. Tony and I, we're gonna take down Rocket from within, just you wait and see.
...Self-indulgent chatter aside, I very much admire the fact that Flygon shows both the nitty-gritty runs where he's playing a hard game as optimally as he can AND the runs where he's glossed over much of the labor that goes into making a silly team functional in order to tell the story he wanted to tell. They're two sides of the same coin. The stories I can tell won't be as good until I git gud.
this has been my TedTalk, thank you and good night
well said!
I believe storytelling is making a comeback for TH-cam videos! It is better than fast paced editing lifeless monstrosities anytime! Glad youtubers are making this change!
I was literally so devastated when we lost Nelson, what a good boy who did his best for the team. I really miss Nuzlockes that have fun stories like this, it makes the losses hit so much harder. Great job, man!
Dude. I’m slightly high and BAWLED when we lost Nelson. This video was an emotional rollercoaster of the highest degree.
@@erinbeaud4556 Oh, to be getting high and watching Pokémon nuzlockes... You are one of god's bravest soldiers
@@strangeandinteresting I’ll smoke to that, cheers 🙌
@@strangeandinteresting I’d drink to that
But when the baby was named Nelson it was nice
Imagine an epilogue: Years had passed. The Retired Champion feels an uncontrollable urge to visit Shoal Cave again.
On the way, he notices a rainbow overhead, but overlooks it.
Waiting for him at Shoal Cave is a Walrein, wearing a Rocky Helmet.
Omgggg that would be such a good plot for a Romhack Extension😂
He looks over confused. Did a trainer lose their pokemon? Only domestic pokemon held battle items.
The Walrein waddles over and makes a happy sound and headbutts his side.
He breaks. He starts to cry as he hugs the pokemon tightly, sobbing "Nelson-Nelson I'm so sorry" He doesn't break the embrace as a small crowd Spheals encroaches on them.
When he looks around he sees a pod of Walreins. Having an eviolite, choice scarf, Zoom Lens, Assault vest, and a scar on one of their eyes. They stare at him with sad smiles.
"Guys?" he moans. He looks at his arms.
The Walrein is gone.
All that's left is it's rocky helmet.
@@isabellabassham2591 that one rly got to me
The Twins being extra small and Bertha being extra large is just the cutest freaking detail.
Same with Anita having a heart-shaped spot.
It's very cute and adorable

Now we live in a world where Jaiden Animations is turning into a pokemon streamer and FlygonHG is making super entertaining storytelling with cool drawings
yeh they switchin' places XD
Well well well, how the turn tables....
It's a world I'm very happy to live in, both of their content is great
Perfectly balanced...
I kinda don’t want it this way lol
Best. Pokémon. Story. Narrative. Ever. I shed a tear with Nelson's death. It actually was like watching a movie TTwTT 10/10 would recommend and watch again
I poured out tears
What's ttwtt stand for?
@@PineappleForFuncrying face, just squint your eyes, lol
Why am I crying over 6 Spheal? WHY WAS I BAWLING WHEN THEY VISITED SHOAL CAVE?!? I absolutely loved this entire thing, from the story to the characters, to the gameplay itself.
Thats when you know its great story driving
Maybe you’re just sensitive🤷🏻♂️
New decree: Every Spheal in every nuzlocke ever must be named Nelson in honor of his heroic sacrifice
It's true.
If I ever do one and catch a Spheal, I will do this
It’s a terrible day for rain.
A nuzlock I hope to do is cat claw 9 a team of litten with a certain spheal acting as commander.
Please keep in mind this is more of a investigation on the aether foundation type of story as well as protecting the public from ultra beasts kinda story with it being that the crew we originally just supposed to be recon but thngs get out of hand.
The fact that Bertha and Nelson were best friends in the training academy makes it even more heartwarming that she named her first son after him following his passing.
I agree
I was expecting this to be:
“haha funny man with 6 spheals becoming the Pokémon champion”
Instead I got: “Pokémon Gear: Spheal Eater”
This dude made me cry over a Pokemon fainting in battle. I love Nelson so much.. rest now sweet prince...
Man, the loss of Nelson nearly had me in tears but Bertha's son being named in his honor took me over the edge. Wonderful storytelling, man. I really enjoyed this and ended up attached to these characters in just under 40 minutes, honestly really impressive.
I'm crying as well
I whould have made me cry even more if berthas sone nelson was wearing nelsons rocky helmet
@@denzelllaurencelising101 wut
When Nelson died I did my whole gruff war-documentary, "there comes a time in war when men have to die, good men, perhaps the greatest men."
Then the epilogue hit and I just melted. I have no idea why.
Ik
Despite Flygon being a fully evolved pokémon already, FlygonHG keep evolving his content.
That intro was awesome.
Yesss
Couldnt even make a Mega for Flygon bc they had no ideas, and they made one for Audino..
@@Squirtle_Squad_Supremacy Making a Mega for Audino is pretty cool, its just a damn shame that they decided to get rid of them after Gen 7.
@@swampert564 There were so many unova options..
@@chrisstoltz3648 Lots of Pokemon are Mega's we never got. I love Flugon too but I'm not gonna pretend its the only loss. Dragonite and the Johto starters spring to mind.
This was by FAR the best pokemon challenge video ever made. The use of "Amazing Grace" during the shoal cave segment really put me in my feels.
I know right, it brought tears to my eyes!! Such effective use of music!
This is an absolutely legendary video. I put it on thinking "oh, I'll have it on in the background while I get ready for bed, I'll watch like 5 minutes and then maybe the rest in the morning!"
No. I watched it all in one sitting. I was that entranced. This was a genuinely moving story. I thought that the narrative was going to be dropped once Archie had been beaten, the idea changing to "Hey, let's beat the champion for fun!" But instead we got a twist villain Disney could never dream of.
The ending of "all power is terrible" got me. RIP Nelson.
Gosh, there's so much incredible detail in the Spheal profiles.
Alpha is the only agent of Spheal Team 6 with a 100% mission success rate, killing 27 enemies across eight missions. He also conducted the most important assassination in the history of the force, killing [*REDACTED*] in a perfectly-executed mission.
Anita killed 431 people across 19 missions, most of which it's safe to assume came during the infamous Mt. Pyre Massacre. She enjoys the hunt. She doesn't hesitate. She is the angel of death.
Horatio, responsible for "The Brown Summer," was suspended multiple times while at the academy. 8 confirmed kills across two missions. Ran demolition in the Area Zero incident. Some rumors label him as the true killer of Paldea's famed professor.
Eliza was the poison master during the Area Zero incident and is likely the only operative who actually knows what happened that day other than her brother. She was an elite athlete with no rival. None could match her blazing speed. Some Paldeans still campaign to this day for a permanent ban on Spheals after what Los Diablos did there.
Bertha was feared even by her classmates. She did not complete daily exercises, but no-one dared question her. She completed two tours in the Unovan deserts. She had only one kill in 17 of her missions. Then suddenly, after she was one of only two survivors of the Chansey Siege of '05, her kill count suddenly went up by 82. She has not spoken to anyone about what happened in the siege, and that report is under top security clearance.
Her best friend Nelson was the other survivor of the Chansey siege. He has only two kills to his record. He was not liked at the academy initially, but earned respect by sheer tenacity. The only indicator to any other agents of how the siege went was the number of scars on his round body after the mission. It is theorized that Nelson simply stood in the open and drew attacks while Bertha set up to take out their enemies. It truly foreshadowed his tragic end.
They all obey without hesitation. They do not ask questions. And according to the reports, their donor parents were all killed before they were born.
this went from a cool amusing intro to a stupid challenge run to the best story about murderous spheals ive ever seen. also admittedly the only story about murderous spheals ive ever seen, but y'know, it's still really good.
I love murder. :)
it's 2am, I've work in three hours. I didn't need to be literally crying over spheals. RIP Nelson. flawless story telling, the animation, each spheal personality, all of it, just 10/10 superb!
NOT BERTHA'S CHILD BEING NAMED NELSON 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
god this was such a great story, what a way to turn a challenge run into an insanely compelling narrative with such emotional impact, absolutely amazing job!
Damn why did Nelson’s death bring up more emotions than 90% of billion dollar films absolutely spectacular performance by everyone and I hope every Spheal gets the well earned rest in their retirement they deserve
Rewatching the vid, it’s so well foreshadowed too. During the profiles, HG says Nelson is always “first one in, last one out.” 😢
I said the exact same thing. This was great.
Hey, spoilers! Still, you’re very right.
I ACTUALLY CRIED
IKR It legit gave me goosebumps
The shoal cave scene was the absolute best climax I could have ever imagined for a pokemon story like this one. It's obvious people put a lot of effort into this video, and I hope it grows and ages well in the future!
I was thinking the same thing as the character “give up on the mission” but then fight for the place monologue brought me back.
I’m actually emotional over Bertha naming her child after Nelson.
I subbed because of this.
Loved all the thoughtful details.
The animations were top notch and brought the story to life as well.
I want more like this. I was so unironically invested! The fact it was cute spheals made me really close to tearing up when one "died" even, partially driven by just how played-straight the delivery of the death-speech was. This is such a fun way to present a nuzlocke, and this makes me wish I had the budget and such to do similar.
I feel like FlygonHG keeps making so many Hoenn challenges just so he can keep writing more of Mr. Stone’s love life
hey, if that IS the case, I'm not complaining.
After this one I'm actually glad Nosey's control freak of a half brother isn't helping raise him.
20:00 this is a testament to Flygon’s storytelling, I am IN TEARS
37:08 actually made me cry a little
the 15:00 part hits hard too
I actually felt my heart shatter when I knew it had to be Nelson. And yet, I still found a "no!" escape my body when I saw Nelson stand at the literal jaws of death.
Istg i was like "oh shit why do i need to cry" and i was so close to holding it back but then i saw the rocky helmet on the ground and the tears started flowing. never cried on a nuzlocke video before
Spheal noises
I didnt expect a video with this premise to make me so overwhelmingly emotional. The animated segments were amazingly adorable.
I love how you were able to bring back the long forgotten nuzlocke tradition of having an emotional attachment for your team. Reminds me of my childhood.
The true spirit of the nuzlocke. Nuzlockes these days are soulless and repetitive, but this is a breath of fresh air
I love the breaking character with pelipper, so perfect. Also you've still got your regular phrases with this
Where boys cried: AI Professor Sada/Turo going through the time machine
Where men cried: Nelson sacrificing himself to save his best friend, who returned the favor years later by naming her child after him
Can't wait for the epic sequel, Squishes Strike Back: The Story of the Goomy Team Six, A Pokemon Y Hardcore Nuzlocke, coming to theaters July 2023 /j
Seriously, keep up these story based challenges! I absolutely ADORED both this and the Bunny Only Sword Hardcore Nuzlocke :3
Where even chads cried: the arven scene when his Doggo is all better
I'M LITERALLY CRYING RN
YES
I might take this idea but not make a video just for a fun challenge the only prerequisite is getting the goomys into the pc
@@A-Person1 me crying at all 3:
Rest in peace, Nelson. You were loved and cherished by many, especially Bertha. You will forever live within our memories.
THE LOREEEEE dude did good writing this pretty entertaining story love how we constantly find ways to play these games in different ways.
This is already the best nuzlocke yet. Incredible storytelling, awesome characters, a freaking COVER STORY!? If this doesn’t crack 500k views me and my spheals will riot
The fact that Bertha honored Nelson has made her my favorite of the Spheal Team 6 ❤️
I really like the idea of doing hardcore nuzlocke in Gen 6 because of the super training. It gives an edge that can still make it difficult, but gives a greater level of strategy
I cried fir real to the death of Nelson, Spheal is my favorite pokémon and him dying like a Champ make me cry... And the newborn Spheal named Nelson at the end brought me a tear of happiness. Very good storytelling ♥️
I didn’t expect to be tearing up over Spheals today, but life has a way of surprising you
Excellent video, incredible twists, 10/10 you have earned yourself a sub
I cried so much at this one video! Nelson was best boi
man. the story beats of this nuzlocke got me a whole lot more emotional than i had expected. the spheals getting to just be spheals for the first time in their lives. nelson sacrificing himself, always so dedicated to the cause even if he was never top of his class. the wall grew quiet and unseen as a wall tends to do. i initially followed this channel for its unique nuzlockes, and this one has become one of my favorites.
I only wish there had been more story inserted when Steven poisoned Bertha. Would have been perfect.
Never expected a nuzlocke to destroy me emotionally. We will all carry Nelson in our hearts 💙
Super creative take on a Nuzlocke and an amazing excuse to spotlight the adorable Spheel :) 6 of the same pokemon yet somehow didn't feel remotely dull? That's talent my friend!
This is the first run I’ve seen in a long time that feels so true to the spirit of Pokémon Hard Mode. It’s not about being the best player, it’s about giving so much life and personality to a Pokémon you only had by chance, that you genuinely feel that loss.
Thank you.
I love when nuzlockers commit to a story like this. It makes any deaths in the run hit that much harder when there's a backstory. Nelson dying after the spheals finally got to just ...be spheals. No joke, I was tearing up.
THIS IS SO GOOD! Insanely well made, the shoal cave segment is unbelievable! You're a great freaking storyteller!
Why does a Pokémon challenge run give me more feelings and a better story than most movies these days?
Cause these little ones were given some thought into their storys
Cause these little ones were given some thought into their storys
Everyone said it already - incredible. The animation is adorable, the spheals are SO good, the storyline is fun, and the EPILOGUE. Listen. This is like a fanfiction to me. I am obsessed. I want every nuzlocke to be like this. I am losing it.
This is it, this is the best nuzlocke of all time. The storytelling is absolutely immaculate, the animations and drawings great, the music all so fitting. Well done Dr. Flygon, well done.
Dude made me feel every emotion in a story about spheals
I never thought that a story about 6 Spheals would literally make me cry. I’ve done multiple nuzlockes and when a lose a Pokémon it makes me a little sad but I can get over it later. But when Nelson died I had to pause the video cause I couldn’t see it through the tears in my eyes
Goddamn I just about burst out into tears over Nelson 😭I'm so glad nobody else had to die and Bertha honored him like that! This was amazing bro!
With how well the elite 4 went I’m convinced they knew what you were up to and let you through to accomplish what none of them could.
Why'd they even put up a fight? It would have been much easier to just let him by...
@@crescent_sun482 a formality
@@furiouscorgi6614 eh, seems like a useless formality when you're trying to get rid of a corrupt power-hungry manipulative rich brat that they also want gone
i love how they all have difrent held items as their personality(exept the leader who has a physical feature;the scar)its a nice attention to detail good job dude keep up the amazing work.
this is real story telling
we need a part 2 ASAP
Loving the emphasis on storytelling 💜🖤. GO SPHEAL TEAM SIX!!!
WE NEED MORE
I teared up a little at the part toward the end where he talked about Bertha and her husband's first son, Nelson.
AND I AM STILL CRYING WHAT THE HECK
Me too! I had to pause and walk away for a minute 😭😭😭
I came to watch this expecting a nuzlocke I could listen to while drawing but as soon as I saw the art and heard the immersive story telling with clear effort put into making it an interesting watch, I put down my book and began to watch. Happy to say I don't regret it. The amazing visuals, the storytelling that gives you an explanation for questions the viewer may ask, a good plot, the emotional moments, all I can say is it was a good watch. Please keep up the good work.
This is so funny the idea of a nuzlock with a full team of spheals is hilarious and the fact your acting like a secret agent is even funnier
These story based runs are the most amazing thing that poketube has to offer.
I love how Winona’s Pelliper broke Matti…that dumb bird has done the same to me too many times to count. I think I rank him as more dreaded to fight than Whitney and her Miltank, simply from frustration rather than difficulty
Edit: Holy hell the Icy cave part almost got me choked up!!
Edit 2: Ok…you got me a few minutes later…damn Crobat!!
31:00 I love how the orchestral version of "the elephants marching" starts playing
Spheal is the cutest sweetest baby 🥺 and this was a very cute, heartwarming story. More off-the-wall narrative Nuzlocke teams, please!
It was a nuzlock?
@@Beegirl12345no it was a nuzlocke. Jk on serious note, yes. Nelson wasn’t used after his heroic sacrifice to he who must not be named
Literal tears for Nelson. Thank god none of the others died. Well done Flygon, storytelling at its finest.
Best boi Nelson
That was amazing. Turning a Nuzlocke into a movie-like storyline was a genius idea and the execution was superb, from storytelling to the actual gameplay.
The loss of Nelson had me in tears and this video got me to subscribe. Keep up the awesome work!
I love the commitment, the drawings and the breaking character to rant about Pelipper.
*sniffles* This was beautiful. Really. I loved these characters. They felt like a real family. It was adorable, and sweet, and sad.
I felt really sad when Nelson fell.
Thank-you for this, Flygon. This was a good, emotional 40 minutes. May the remaining Spheal Six live on happily.
This really was only 3 months ago… wow. One of my favorite nuzlocke videos though, as others pointed out, the story is what nuzlockes really were about
Wow. This was the first video I’ve seen of yours, and I was just blown away. You are amazing and very talented, and I love the collab for the animation, and with every spheal having a deep backstory. It’s so good I actually cried when Nelson died. And to top it all off, spheal is my favorite Pokémon!
I love the the Flygon breaks character with the rage at Pelliper.
I love the thought that almost everything in sapphire was orchestrated to take down Archie
The story aspect of this nuzlocke made this whole video so much better and interesting. Other youtubers might have just put this out as a normal nuzlocke but with a gimmick video. But your take on this with the Spheal Team 6 made it perfect.
That was wonderful! I wasn't expecting a story driven nuzlocke, but I'm all here for it! The animations and little details really brought this to life! Great work.
I was more emotionally invested in this story than any Hollywood film from the past two decades. I will never, ever, forget the legacy of the ST6 and the sacrifices they endured
Yo when we said we liked the narrative style of nuzlock FlygonHg ran with it.
I was in tears with Nelson’s sacrifice, but than to see the aftermath seeing the team continue to move on after, brought me to tears again.
Not to mention how visiting the cave foreshadowed the tragedy. I did not expect to have such strong feelings while watching a nuzlock, thank you for such amazing work.
This was amazing! I've never seen any nuzlocke that felt this alive. The animation was beautiful and the way you told the story really pulled me in. I'd definitely love to see more like this!
This is cinema gold. I kid you not when I say that this is an absolute masterpiece. The way you mix storytelling and gameplay together is absolutly glorious. This really is so good. This made me subscribe. Thank you for this wonderful video from the bottom of my heart.
37:08 had me tearing up unbelievable storyline this is the work of a master
Ok Flygon chill, when we said “please more story-driven runs” we didn’t mean they’d all have to be THIS GOOD!
Such an awesome video, especially the Cave Arc and the ending. Great job, keep it up ❤️
ohhh the narrative and emotional stakes are SUCH classic nuzlocke stuff and it's really fun and compelling to see in video form like this, down to the clever reframing of story events and everything
Absolutely gorgeous video, congratulations on making such a compelling narrative from the run!
This felt like an anime... It was beautiful. I rate this a 10 out of 10. Spheal has, and always have been one of my all-time favorite water types. The story was excellent. The bittersweet ending was fascinated. This is what most stories should be.
I legitimately cried during this video, both at Nelson's sacrifice and the Where Are They Now section. This was absolutely beautiful. I hope you are able to make more amazing stories 💕
This was absolutely beautiful, the ending really made me tear up. You wrote such lively characters for them all, I got attached
"There should have been a few more sacrifices" are you daft!? I was in tears over the loss of nelson
I just got teary-eyed about six spheals and their story about saving the world. This was absolutely amazing, please look into doing stuff like this again in the future!
This was beautiful and nelson was the hero we didn't even know we needed. Rest in peace my boy nelson
Honestly I’ve been getting this video in my recommendations for a while now and just ignored it for a while till I finally choose to watch and didn’t expect to witness such a masterpiece of a story and Pokémon nuzlocke. Amazing work. Thank you for such entertaining content
you definitely captured the spirit of a nuzlocke. reminds me of the storytelling in the comic. i love it when people give their teams/playthroughs unique stories as well, because it shows that everyone's playthroughs of pokémon are unique and this is just one of many ways to enjoy the game.
I just expected this to a funny story of 6 spheal stopping team aqua and becoming champion. *that was EMOTIONAL*
Bro, the storytelling, the narrative, the character design of each spheal was just amazing! I've always loved your videos (I even rewatch them sometimes) but this is a whole new level. We'll always have Nelson in our hearts
yooo i love this, the way you turned it into a whole story is really cool and unique and i'd love to see more videos like this from you!
Clicked for the title, stayed for the award winning story.
Seriously though, I didn't expect this level of quality out of a Nuzlocke video. Exceptional work my guy! (Remarkable!)
This was absolutely amazing. I think you did a great job writing a coherent plot, and justifying why you couldn't kill Archie in the beginning, as well as why Steven isn't the one dealing with Archie.
I went from “hm, I probably would prefer a normal video” at the beginning to being on my knees praying to every God that no one would die to Steven. Excellent job
Incredibly well done with the script and all of the story!!!! A wonderful watch, with delightful art to pull the whole thing together!!!!!
You are so incredibly creative and skilled at story telling. I always enjoy your nuzlocke challenges because of the strategy involved and your dry humor, but this one blew me away. I love this region and the uniquely difficult gym battles, and the Spheal line is one of my favorites, too! Fantastic video as always! 🗣️💗
Never in my life would I be attached to a team of Spheals, but you’ve done it, you got me
