I love how the normally trash male combee went from being a sacrifice in one of the early fights to the strongest member of the team
Did you catch that after the evolution, Honeyy was shown as female? Just an observation…
@@rosetteprism8640 probably easier (in terms of modding the game) to do it that way than let vespiquen be male
@@monkeydetonation Not really? Vespiquen is Gen IV and this is a Gen III base, so Combee/Vespiquen had to be added wholesale anyway. Vespiquen could have been made a 50/50 ratio. EDIT: or more correctly, to avoid Marill>Azumarill-style issues, match Combee's gender ratio of 1:8. Or made the entire line 50/50.
On the other hand, if adding the Pokemon was just done via plugging in decomp resources obtained from the modding community at large, then the only change made was to allow all Combee to evolve, and because it's purely a difficulty/mechanics hack, no attention was given to anything that wasn't immediately for balancing.
Nothing wrong with just making sure the battles work as intended and not worrying about aesthetic changes, of course, just worth noting.
Honeyy is a trans icon
she just like me fr fr
The idea of shaking a tree and having 81 berries fall out is hilarious
Tbh though if you think about berries as the size of a blackberry and not an apple, it’s not the craziest idea
@@mr.fluffypantz4150I bet you’re fun at parties
@@FortunAdlaich Someone's never been to a party with The Mr. Fluffypantz
@@chocokittybo where you at the rave in Tijuana?
@@FortunAdlaich oh quiet you, they weren't even being dismissive
I love how Honey was thought to be a meme but lowkey carried. This is very entertaining. Hyped for more content of this game
Even before it evolved, its a combee, it was expected to die after eating croagunks berrry, and then it carried the rest of the fight.
I love that your commentary doesn’t sound at all like you’re in the middle of a race😂
Aah yes. Water Pulse confusion chance. 20%, except for when the NPCs are using it; then it's 85% of the time
this combee transitioned and I absolutely loved it
Good for her
Good for her
Hold up, let her cook.
Clownfish moment
good for her
Hey Flygon, An idea for a nuzlocke: only use the rarest pokemon on each route.
Commenting for algorithm
That sounds like a cool idea!
yess! that would be pretty painful to do,but really cool to watch
Nice
that sounds super fun
super impressed- you played fantastically. also thanks for the feature 😳
I couldn’t let big mechanic fumbler Drix go without the feature
Fr male Combee needs an evolution in the base games
Even like a little soldier bee would be nice
Gamefreak 🫂 Ralts
🏊♂️ Buneary
☠️ Combee
@@gameinsane4718 ye the obvious Vespiking option wouldn't work thematically, but a soldier bee totally would.
no it doesn’t…. I’d prefer they didn’t ruin the flavor pokemon to appeal to the small amount of nuzlockers who play the modern games
@@gameinsane4718 they already shot themselves in the foot by having that already exist in Beedrill, they shouldve just made vespiqueen a option for female weedle/kakuna instead of making a whole new pokemon thats just honeycomb of which 87.5% of them are useless
You did a fantastic job with the intro. I was dying from the "even if u suck, u can win if ur opponent is a narcoleptic"
NPC strategy:
Step 1: Metronome
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Force a reset!
I was so lost when he kept saying Mary Annie and wondering what was gonna be sent out on the field. Mareanie like Marine and Meanie
Just wait til you hear how he pronounces lapras
I love all the dramatic zoom-ins when we're praying for no crit/para/AP boost
Being 6th place of 13 AFTER a reset is a pretty NOICE achievement in my opinion
Especially considering he had less time than most cause he had plans
Thanks for spoiling it bud 🤦♂️
@@RK-so1cc why did you read de comments before watch the video lol
@@RK-so1cc *goes into comments before finishing video* hm these comments seem to be about the video
@@moonsblossom it was the TOP comment
Fun thing about the fable. You are supposed to see the tortoise and the hare both as yourself, not as you and a competitor. You are the tortoise, you are also the hare, it's how you balance the two that defines your life strategy
isnt that undercut by the fact that the turtle wins the race? seems that, if so, aesop would be implying not a balance, but a prescription to always take it slow
What i love about these Romhacks is that you see pokemon in unevolded stages, which you normally only see in their final evolution in the end game.
"Aesop and his novel . . . THE BIBLE" took me out!!! 😂
This was so cool to catch live, you did so good and had the best box if you were to continue. Certainly a professional !!!! Can't wait to see you pick the run back up one day.
I'd love to see you finish this romhack, it seems like just the right amount of challenging
I laughed at the tortoise and the hair part. Realized that you were talking about yourself then I got a little annoyed. You have lots of nuzlocke experience with the vanilla games, you’re just behind with romhacks. I’m sure if you pursue the challenges of more romhacks you can be on an even the playing field. You did as great as always ❤
i dont think he meant to disparage himself, more that he was going to play cautiously while banking that his opponents would carelessly rush in
@@sloane2222 that’s probably the point he was trying to get across, I guess I got carried away while writing the comment
@@FlygonHG I don’t like it when people downplay themselves, I had a bad experience in the past where my friend talked about herself badly a lot and it ended up becoming a serious matter. But looking back at the video I know that you weren’t meaning it in that sense.
@@sloane2222 yeah Flygon is a very careful planner typically and that's just a straight up good nuzlocke skill lol, meanwhile I lose like 60% of my runs rushing into shit being unprepared.
@@huntersnider9621 same! my friend and I have been trying different soul link randomizers for like, years now and just keep wiping lol
Great video. glad you were able to participate and enjoyed your time even though you had to leave early, it was fun to be commentating your (and many other great players) gameplay throughout the race.
I was absolutely stunned to see both a new romhack and a new nuzlocke race, my day has been made and I'm riding this high while I do my homework.
The intro cracked me up holy
"You can still win anything you set your mind to, as long as your opponent is narcoleptic"
its impressive how far you got despite having to leave the earliest. Tortoise gotta tortoise and you
tortoised the best!
This race was so fun man. I hope you get the chance to finish this ROM sometime soon!! You killed this!! :)
Well played man, and we’ll made video. Also it was fun to race against you.
As always I love your videos HG, and very well done on the run! As always, you have become reallly good at this game and it shows.
These are always fun to watch bro. Keep them coming
man my day was going pretty good compared to the last few days, thanks for posting again and making it even better
Combee SLAY QUEEN!
That was super fun.
Got to listen to this while I prepared a dessert for my math class! Loving the weekday uploads!
this sounds exciting! i'm so excited to see how this race turns out!
Woulda been cool to see an entire run or you completing the race but I completely get not wanting to or having the time to play more then 7 hours 😂. Fun video non the less
It's always Flygon vs. the English language and I'm here for it
Just like the race, i immediately clicked on the video. From one Flygon Video to another, your videos keep me going.
Always quality content❤
The Tortoise & Hare bit sounded like a Philomena Cunk bit
The unexpected Beatles/Skrelp remix made me chuckle, and I will now never hear it the same way again. Keep up the great content! 🎉
Excited to see the results of the titular race!
Eponymous is a nice alternative if you're trying to avoid saying "titular", which it sounds like you are not xD
Male Combee the actual mvp of the run
You now it's a good day when flygonhd uploads
bruh when you did the 'DON'T DO IT' I kept thinking of Gabriel Iglesias
XD
Great video! Just think that having a timer would be nice, even though the screen is busy enough already :)
aaaaah skrelp joke got me HA great work Matti
You can do this mate!
Congrats on 6th place. You did very well. :D
I’m not super sold on the way every trainer is a scary boss fight, but I do like the encounter variety
Really hope The good doctor returns to this one at some point, seems like a really Nice difficulty curve with some diverse and atypical encounters.
Another convert to the Church of Male Combee. He doesnt need to evolve, He is a perfect being
Chimchar + Ponita, I guess that gave instant PTSD.
Nice going Dr HG!
A video dropping on a Wednesday? Truly the gods have smiled upon me
Haha I'd love to see you do more collabs. Maybe a soul link?
Flygon I prefer watching your streams to actual TV so entertaining and brilliant also loved seeing Poppy 😂❤
If that lycanrok is named after makima's dog I'm gonna freak
I hope this series continues, even without the race of other people
what a ride, this was fun!
45 seconds in. Flygon is planning to do a Bradbury.
Steven Bradbury won the Olympics by staying last when everyone else fell all at once, letting him cruise to victory. He is quite proud of this achievement. He played to win, not to do well. It was an all in gamble that payed off.
Nice job!! ⭐✨
also rip crepe (creep)😔
Dude that "hello there" got me good
A video mid week was a much appreciated pick me up. 😭 Thank you!!
Dr. Flygon is back to heal
Love you bish! ❤️ Best pokemon trainer out there!
Actually watching this hard enough to keep an eye on chat... Did that guy tell you to buy a chew toy? LMAO
HEEYYY THATS ME AGAIN 2:15 I LOVE BEING IN THESE STREAMS.
Great video!
Poppy show in up in the middle of the run. Nice! ;)
I vote finish this run outside of the race. This seems like a fun rom hack!
OO I hope bloody made a video on her race
why did MALE combee actually do work wtf happened
She transitioned and is living her best life.
@@tsifirakiehl4250 We love this for her
Oh my god that qwop footage gave me flashbacks and nightmares…
The story of the tortoise and the hare? I think you meant the story of [turtle-shaped pokemon] and [bunny-shaped pokemon]!
The Torkoal and the Cinderace?
I would watch you finish the run honestly
please can you play through pokemon insurgence. as an incentive the mega flygon looks vvvv cool. great game. can also be nuzlocked.
I'm angry. I wanted to like the video when he started singing "Skrelp! I need somebody" but I already liked it and now I feel unfulfilled
Skrelp! Not just anybody
So it's a bunch of Poke Tubers battle to see who will wins comes out on top.
me: HE uses my fav pokemon, Ponyta
I was thinking about playing run and bun but I've been seeing a lot of posts on reddit about how brutally difficult that game is.
The description of the tortoise and the hare is exactly what i shoulda been
Love the video lika usual! I do wonder why Monferno was allowed to start the battle at lvl 26 while the level cap was 25? Did I miss something?
I think the level caps only apply to exp gain, as hitting it stops the mons from getting anything from battle. So because he used a Rare Candy, he bypassed the cap by a level.
Great bun run! Bird Up!
i'm gonna need you to revisit emerald kaizo again
I paused the video to watch shorts after hearing him say "nuzlocke race", got lost in thought about that concept, then unpaused just to listen to this man say his strategy was gonna be most of what I got lost thinking about in my head 😂
21:52 YO THEY TRANSITIONED!!!
As a track and field athlete I’m offended by that statement in the intro 😂😂😂
Joking of course
New vid lets go 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Tsareena was so freaking clutch
sir flygon, will you please play infinite fusions? its really good and i think it would give you a bit of a break, given that its not necessarily hard. I would love to see your reactions to some of the designs
You should do a Pokémon Black or White N run. Using only the Pokémon N has.
Somehow, the sickest play in this video uses a male combee
15:00 shout out to the dad joke in chat
This comment will probably get lost in the flood of everything that is TH-cam comment sections, but if I were you, next time you do one of these special event videos where you post the highlights on the main channel, I'd save those uploads for the weekend so that it gives you an extra week to help towards building a catalog for weeks when you don't have a full video quite yet. Just an idea of course, but regardless, I really enjoy watching the videos!
i would spend half the race just thinking of a name for my pokemon
i would have used nuzzle on brawly's hitmontop not only would you deal damage but also para
hey the link to dezkeh is broken in the description, the ) is accidentally apart of the URL XD
not done watching but 2nd run chimchar and ponyta??? idk if thats a blessing or a curse
What's the name of the song in the outro? It's great.
POPPY CONTENT
Let's goooooo
Where can I find more nuzlocke races?
