While the previous Nuzlocke was a hero rising from tragedy, this run was a powerful villain spiraling into a tragedy at the very end. God this was beautiful and poetic.
This is when I lack confidence while doing a nuzlocke challenge, but somehow, I pulled through, having lost only 1 Pokemon. My Final Pokemon Team when I fought Ghetsis: (I won, but with a Pokemon sacrifice. Poor Darmani...) Kirby (Samurott) (Still alive) (Kirby is a star Pokemon against Hydreigon for the first time, the second starter Pokemon surviving until the end.) Zapster (Zebstrika) (Still alive) (fighting Carracosta without activating Sturdy) Lomax (Whimsicott) (Still alive) (A kindhearted Pokemon that survived) Lueroi (Excadrill) (Still alive) (skillfully dodging a Focus Blast) Sunbloom (Simisear) (Still alive) (Landing Fire Blast 2 times in a row) Darmani (Darmanitan) (died in battle) (Bouffalant used Head Charge to knock out poor Darmani, but knocked itself out in the process) Kirby the Samurott have a close near death moment where Kirby lived on 1 HP remaining with the Hydreigon nearly scaring Sunny. And Kirby hit Megahorn, knocking out Hydreigon. I brought in Darmani, thinking an Expert Belt Superpower will leave Bouffalant on a small amount of health and knocks Darmani out with Head Charge, and also knocking itself out in the process. This saddens me quite a lot because Darmanitan is my favorite Pokemon, and now I don't have a strong Fire-Type Pokemon anymore. Seismitoad came out next, and I brought in Lomax, Giga draining it. Eelektross came out, I keep Lomax in to set up Leech Seed. I didn't know that Eelektross know Flamethrower, I swap into Sunbloom to bait Flamethrower coming. Eelektross used Wild Charge, but considering that Sunbloom has a bold nature, he was able to survive, and knock out Eelektross. Ghetsis sent out his final Pokemon, Bisharp. Sunbloom hit Fire Blast, and I won the Pokemon Black nuzlocke challenge. That was an emotional rollercoaster. I was able to do the nuzlocke challenge with fear, and I won with the least amount of confidence.
I remember going through lot of struggle, losing every pokemon I loved, yet surviving the nuzlocke at last and beating the game in my first ever nuzlocke, and then follow it up with absolutely easy nuzlocke playthrough with no pokemon losses only to be swept by the first elite four. Really shows the Turtle vs Rabbit story in its extreme.
The fact that Charizard died to an overconfident and avoidable error just barely before the rest of the team got swept by a move it would've been immune to is tragic. The fact that the one temporary team member who got to shine for a bit earlier, Murkrow, would have also been immune to the very same move; and the earlier death of Crobat make it all a true comedy of hubris.
@@championglitchy6821 While doing my Pokemon Black 2 nuzlocke (I wasn't recording) Nights, my Purrloin died from Audino, DoubleSlap hit like 5 times. Oh man, without Liepard with the ability Limber, today is not my lucky day. I felt a sense of sorrow that every Pokemon that has been with me dying... with a storyline. Every Pokemon that has died... Rest in Peace, all of you... You guys will be remembered.
I do think Jacob’s biggest weakness in this game is his cockiness. I feel like that’s what keeps him being a relatively average competitive/items player, every time he does alright he acts like he’s invincible. He’s like the real life Pit: mid tier with an Icarus complex
Fun fact: Sunny beat the Elite Four without losing a single Pokemon. Then won to N without losing any Pokemon, but then... Ghetsis claimed her dearly beloved Darmani. Sunny: I think it will leave it at 1 health left... Yep, knew it. Bouffalant: Uses Head Charge, and knocks itself out Sunny: Darmani, no! Oh no... Ghetsis is going to use Eelektross... Come out and fight, Lomax! Lomax: (sets up leech seed to sap away at Eelektross's health) Sunny: It knew Flamethrower?! Oh dear, come out and fight, Sunbloom! Sunbloom: Resisted Flamethrower. Now to defeat Eelektross. Done. Sunny: His last Pokemon! Bisharp! I was pretty much banking on Darmani for this fight, but Sunbloom will be able to knock it out. Sunbloom: Fire Blast! Bisharp: Darn it. Sunny: Sunbloom, you're amazing. You're my special elemental monkey.

My latest randomized nuzlocke I ended up with a wingull as my starter, naming it “big beak” and I actually became attached to Pelipper and now it’s probably top 30 for me. That fricking Pelipper got me through a lot and I’m still grateful
Y'know, I usually take "Nothing could possibly go wrong!" or something similar to be foreshadowing, but I really did think you had an unlosable Nuzlocke on your hands. Facing that Bulk Up Groudon is the biggest middle finger RNG could've flipped you
His *own* Bulk Up Groudon was the instawin lol. It would have handled Wallace’s easily. Unfortunately he was still in the “only attack moves good” mindset that you have as an 8-year-old playing the game for the first time.
@@Zorua3 It's not awful when you have to deal with a wide variety of types like in a randomizer, but Slash really shouldn't have gone onto the main sweeper.
He made three grave mistakes. He passed on Bulk Up. He let his Crobat die. And he let Charizard die. He couldn't buff his ace, and he lost the only good switch ins from his team.
Funny thing is that Jacob actually won that fight and beated the Pokémon league in his first try But he decided to do the funny ending and lose to that Groudon with the bulk up
This was the most poetic run ever. The game granting you insane rng making you think that you're in control but just before the final gym badge you get destroyed by the very weapon you had so much trust in , your starter , which also served to end your run. Perfect
I like to imagine instead of the opponent having his own Groudon, it was Alpharad's OWN Groudon turning on Alpha and destroying his own team, realizing the power he has.
@@Rubywing4 na thats pretty dumb if you want to tho think of it that in that world all the pokemon are freed clones therfore explaining why there are so many legendaries and pokemon randomized
I remember watching a randomized nuzlocke (can’t remember who though) and their starter was regice. They were so hyped until they got to the first fight and realized the only move regice has at lvl 5 is self destruct.
Alpharad, the only person that I can think of whose luck rivals that of Chuggaaconroy. When its good, it's really good for a long time, but when it runs out, it hits HARD
9:03 I once decided to shiny hunt Beldum in pokemon platinum. During the week it took to get a radar chain going, I realized that simply using false swipe wasn't going to work because _in addition to_ having the lowest catch rate possible, Beldum also only knows takedown which causes recoil damage and means that lowering it's health will just cause it to KO itself. I literally had to go and catch a ghastly and teach it hypnosis just to guarantee that I wouldn't lose Beldum to recoil damage, _AND EVEN THEN_ I did a test run where I played everything perfectly, lowered it's health to red, put it to sleep at every opportunity and threw nothing but dusk balls and ultra balls... and the Beldum still got away cause it ran out of PP and struggled to death. Even with unlimited resources I couldn't find a way to guarantee I catch this stupid piece of metal, and yet here Alpha goes and gets it first try.
This happened to me too in Sun and Moon, this was when I was in high school, and I shiny hunted 44 hours for it and it struggled to death cause I couldn’t catch it.
Thankfully I managed to catch the actual shiny, and it was just against a normal beldum that it struggled to death. But my god, actually catching that thing was harder than catching any legendary pokemon.
Maxie: "Mew, are you getting this? Turn into that!" Mew: "Okay!" *transforms into Groudon* Seriously, what are the odds of a Trainer to have BOTH Mewtwo AND Mew?!?!
“I just wanted to know if you knew what this Pokémon’s name was” “His names gulpin” Then the silence in the VC grew almost deafening as the 3 men realized what had happened and began to feel the consequences
13:17 I guess Maxie was so jealous of you getting Groudon- 1: Much before him 2: For free 3: Even tho you had no intention of increasing the landmass of the region -that he decided to get it through unconventional means.
You've got an excellent taste in your favorite Pokemon! I'm impressed you got past the tragedy of not being able to catch Absol there. I would've just packed it up and called it a day at that point
I love your videos. You inspired me to start full odds hunting while out in nature. I take my switch to the park, where I recently got my shiny Dracovish
Alpharad forgot Kamek's lesson from Mario Party Advance: "Keep on gaming, but never become arrogant!" Maybe because he stopped uploading the episodes of that run to the Deluxe channel ):
I refuse to beleive that this was actually randomized, the game knew what it was doing and wanted to make Alpharad die in the most painful and poetic way possible.
It wasn't. In another video (The one where he reacts to PokemonChallenges reacting to him) he said the real run had Delibird, but it was too anticlimactic, so he made up a new ending with Groudon instead.
I do think Jacob’s biggest weakness in this game is his cockiness. I feel like that’s what keeps him being a relatively average competitive/nuzlocke player, every time he has Groudon he acts like he’s invincible. He’s like the real life Brendan: mid tier with a a Icarus complex
12:13 At this point Brendan is so jealous he is ready to make senseless sacrifices just to take *you* down. When you know your rival has hit the anger point, you gotta be careful next time.
The entire time I was thinking about how this was going infinitely better than the last nuzlocke and that Groudon would sweep every team. I wasn't wrong
That enemy Groudon really only existed to show how your carelessness made you weaker. It had bulk up, a move you passes It had earthquake, a move that 4 different pokemon you encountered would've been immune to, however you failed the trapinch encounter, and the Lugua encounter because nu master ball, plus you let charizard die carelessly, and you didnt even bother to bring Murkrow along Honestly, just very sad in general
Sure, but a Bulked Up Groundon is still OHKO'ing those two with Slash if it can OHKO a Groundon with EQ. But I super agree that he deserved to lose this, and it was satisfying to see
Jacob blowing through the entire game with a Groudon only to fall to another Groudon is the single most beautiful act of karma I've ever seen. EDIT: I will not be held accountable for my comment being the first one that shows up. You people did this. You only have yourselves to blame.
Hey, it's not my fault my comment blew up. I thought it was gonna get obscured by like the 2 dozen other people that commented the same thing before I did.
I love how this has a accidental moral of “be careful what you wish for” Because of the fact he said he wanted every battle to end with groudon spamming earthquake and he was unfortunately right
I mean groudon still had slash that being said though, charizard probably could have killed with a sun boosted flamethrower crobat would have just died as well
“In this run, Groudon will sweep every team” Jacob being accidentally better at foreshadowing than he ever could have ever expected is prime Alpharad content 👌🏾
That run took that "starts and ends with Groudon" statement way too literally, Alpharad having a Groudon as a starter, and then having his entire team go down to a Groudon too.
This run literally reminds me of Stardust Crusaders' ending where DIO is just invincible and almost has a guaranteed victory but is defeated by his cockiness and carelessness. Alpharad is like DIO who thinks his Groudon is "the ultimate pokemon" (like The World) but is defeated by Juan who has "the same type of pokemon" but with a clever strategy (like Star Platinum).

I think that he just doesn't care about doing well because that's not what his content is about, it's more about doing things to be funny, not to be good at the game
This reminds me of my second playthrough of Black 2. I progressed through the game just barely enough that you could transfer pokémon from the Dream Radar AR game. So, I effectively started with level 5 Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Landorus as my team. It was honestly one of the most fun Pokémon runs I've ever had made even better by the fact that it was 100% legitimate. I mean, until the end, obviously.
Crack Theory: When Alpha said this was a simulation, he was very correct. Most of his pokemon were named after his friends, and once they got Jomedomed, the simulation began to fade, snapping Alpha back to reality.

Reminds me of my own luck - except that my luck is *always* the funniest option happening. I really want one of the two special units from a gacha set? I'll get 4 of the one I don't want and none of the one I do want. (real story) I do a guaranteed uber roll on a set where I don't have any of the units just so I finally don't get a duplicate? The game will give me an ublikely second uber just so the guaranteed one can be a duplicate of it. (real story) I do a gacha roll on a friend's phone on a game I don't play? I immediately get the best unit that they desperately wanted. (real story) You get the picture.

Y'know, I usually take "Nothing could possibly go wrong!" or something similar to be foreshadowing, but I really did think you had an unlosable Nuzlocke on your hands. Facing that Bulk Up Groudon is the biggest middle finger RNG could've flipped you
even that bulk up groudon shouldn't have been trouble for him...had he not skipped his own bulk up prior to this and thus lost the arms race to come.
His *own* Bulk Up Groudon was the instawin lol. It would have handled Wallace’s easily. Unfortunately he was still in the “only attack moves good” mindset that you have as an 8-year-old playing the game for the first time.
@@Zorua3 TBF, Groudon was able to easily delete everything before that point with just attacking moves. Sometimes buffing up is overkill.
@@Zorua3 It's not awful when you have to deal with a wide variety of types like in a randomizer, but Slash really shouldn't have gone onto the main sweeper.
He made three grave mistakes. He passed on Bulk Up. He let his Crobat die. And he let Charizard die. He couldn't buff his ace, and he lost the only good switch ins from his team.
no way you did your first randomizer and got that starter, us mere mortals over here getting Pinecos from Prof Birch
Don’t forget the best starter of all time
Pikachu the Mudkip
Or registeel
My first rando I got Regigigas with an ability that wasn't slow start. I would say it went well.

_Groudon in a nest ball vibes_
9:03 I once decided to shiny hunt Beldum in pokemon platinum. During the week it took to get a radar chain going, I realized that simply using false swipe wasn't going to work because _in addition to_ having the lowest catch rate possible, Beldum also only knows takedown which causes recoil damage and means that lowering it's health will just cause it to KO itself. I literally had to go and catch a ghastly and teach it hypnosis just to guarantee that I wouldn't lose Beldum to recoil damage, _AND EVEN THEN_ I did a test run where I played everything perfectly, lowered it's health to red, put it to sleep at every opportunity and threw nothing but dusk balls and ultra balls... and the Beldum still got away cause it ran out of PP and struggled to death.
Even with unlimited resources I couldn't find a way to guarantee I catch this stupid piece of metal, and yet here Alpha goes and gets it first try.
Feels bad man
You poor thing
This happened to me too in Sun and Moon, this was when I was in high school, and I shiny hunted 44 hours for it and it struggled to death cause I couldn’t catch it.
Thankfully I managed to catch the actual shiny, and it was just against a normal beldum that it struggled to death.
But my god, actually catching that thing was harder than catching any legendary pokemon.

I refuse to beleive that this was actually randomized, the game knew what it was doing and wanted to make Alpharad die in the most painful and poetic way possible.
With the right narrative it can look like it was randomized
Welllllllll about that
It wasn't. In another video (The one where he reacts to PokemonChallenges reacting to him) he said the real run had Delibird, but it was too anticlimactic, so he made up a new ending with Groudon instead.
@@xtrem5428 Yup I've seen that lol. It's funny knowing that I was actually right.

Remember, kids. Stat-buffing moves are important. There's plenty more to Pokémon battles than just spamming your powerful moves.
Until they use their powerful moves and it kills you before you can buff

The fact that Jome KNEW Alpharad was gonna get Groudon scares me
Well Jome is Groudon
I do think Jacob’s biggest weakness in this game is his cockiness. I feel like that’s what keeps him being a relatively average competitive/nuzlocke player, every time he has Groudon he acts like he’s invincible. He’s like the real life Brendan: mid tier with a a Icarus complex

At this point Brendan is so jealous he is ready to make senseless sacrifices just to take *you* down. When you know your rival has hit the anger point, you gotta be careful next time.
In the words of Darkest Dungeon: "Remind yourself that overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer"

In the words of Pat Boiven: " I disagree. It is a quick and efficient killer."
Slowly, gently, this is how a life is taken.
Now Alpharad must play Darkest Dungeon. Then, on the long road, he will find his redemption.
The ending made me remember a comment that Alpha once got that described him as, "a real life mid-tier with an icarus complex"
omg why is this so perfect
Only one comment
The entire time I was thinking about how this was going infinitely better than the last nuzlocke and that Groudon would sweep every team.
I wasn't wrong
Well groundon sweeped every team
That enemy Groudon really only existed to show how your carelessness made you weaker.
It had bulk up, a move you passes
It had earthquake, a move that 4 different pokemon you encountered would've been immune to, however you failed the trapinch encounter, and the Lugua encounter because nu master ball, plus you let charizard die carelessly, and you didnt even bother to bring Murkrow along
Honestly, just very sad in general
he won the first try on this nuzlocke. he came back to lose to groudon for content. just shows how poetic the scene really was.
Don’t forget about crobat lol, he had a LOT of Pokémon who could have survived it
Jome perdicted the future and alpha foresaw a groudon winning but the wrong one. This nuzlock has been an absolute mood
That is somehow the most deserved and most ironic loss I've ever seen in pokemon. Rip to the charizard and crowbat who couldn't have been earthquaked.
Sure, but a Bulked Up Groundon is still OHKO'ing those two with Slash if it can OHKO a Groundon with EQ. But I super agree that he deserved to lose this, and it was satisfying to see
Also had rock slide I believe
@@johndejesus8900 nope, just ancient power at that level. Groudon doesn't learn it by level up
Jacob blowing through the entire game with a Groudon only to fall to another Groudon is the single most beautiful act of karma I've ever seen.

@@suddenly_sprite fr. this was the comment that showed up on mobile that you cant hide without opening description
Hey, it's not my fault my comment blew up. I thought it was gonna get obscured by like the 2 dozen other people that commented the same thing before I did.
Why did he heart something with SPOILERS
I love how this has a accidental moral of “be careful what you wish for” Because of the fact he said he wanted every battle to end with groudon spamming earthquake and he was unfortunately right
When you realize that the two good pokemon on the team that were carelessly lost in battle were the two flying types immune to earthquake
I mean groudon still had slash
that being said though, charizard probably could have killed with a sun boosted flamethrower
crobat would have just died as well
First turn alpha could have eqd juans groundon one hitting it
Don't forget, the Trapinch he couldn't get way earlier would have eventually been a Flygon. With Levitate.

@@marshnryan yes It does idiot all of his Pokémon died painful deaths and you couldn’t see that heartless
This reminds me of my second playthrough of Black 2. I progressed through the game just barely enough that you could transfer pokémon from the Dream Radar AR game. So, I effectively started with level 5 Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Landorus as my team. It was honestly one of the most fun Pokémon runs I've ever had made even better by the fact that it was 100% legitimate.
I mean, until the end, obviously.
Crack Theory: When Alpha said this was a simulation, he was very correct. Most of his pokemon were named after his friends, and once they got Jomedomed, the simulation began to fade, snapping Alpha back to reality.

The only thing that could've topped getting groudon at the start is your rival getting kyogre and OHKO you
