thanks bro
thanks bro
ill use it well alright
Did they not pay enough to have the comment pinned?
I’m a cirkul dude, sorry
This run is just a clear representation of "Strategy and Analytics" vs. "Fuck it, we ball"
Fuck it, we Torch Song
Fuck it, we Surf
fuck it we leach life
Jan really just let Lilligant rock
@@omegaryder7855erm actually Lilligant is a grass type
Jacob & Jan are like irl Pokémon rivals except they’re both just trying to be Blue.
That is scarily accurate
After watching them make a sandwich, them always trying to "smell each other later" isn't that Farfetch'd.
True
Jacob has the swag but is too nice. Jan has the jerkass attitude but is too meek. Only together do they make the perfect Blue.
Why
Jan
- struggles early
- constant mistakes
- over calculates
- fumbles with sludge item at elite 4
Jacob
- lost the first run
lel
Let's be honest, It balances out.
You forgot lilligant
Also Jacob
-Crashes. A lot
I love how Jacob and Jan are the best example of healthy rivalry with too many flirting jokes
Sometimes it's not even jokes 👀
they kissed tho
@@KiwiTheDemonFox3huh
the kissed in the japan vlog at 11:14@@simplyulugbek
@@simplyulugbek There's a split second gag of Alpha getting drunk and kissing Pchal in his Japan trip video.
Jan: "I can u-turn and pivot, but depending on the speed tie, can I survive a crit..."
Alpha: "55 CALM MIND 55 TORCH SONG 55 SOLARBEAM 55 GAME CRASHES"
55 deaths…
Got the reference
I love how he's always committed to show the infamous Onix clip every time
In fairness, it is so unbelievably funny
Notice that the Sabrina wipe was more devastating but the clip isn't used as much, that's because it's nowhere near as funny
He knows he can't let Kidd live that one down.
“What did I say Brayden?!” “WHAT DID I SAY?!” Has been engraved in my memory for a while lol
I cackled as soon as I saw it 😂
Imagine if Jacob and Brayden both died in an accident that was Brayden’s fault, and Jacob’s epitaph read “What did I say Brayden?!”
Jacob leaving Jan high and dry at the "sexiest Pokemon" question had me DEAD 😂😂😂
Jan's knew his lilligant was gonna sweep. He was thinking that far ahead.
He should've asked Alpharad what his favorite Pokemon is
(Edit: If you know the joke then yeah)
@@chrisanarchia7620 It's Absol. The Gardevoir/Vaporeon thing is in the past now
If you think people don't wanna fuck Absol, then I hate to be the one to break it to you, but people also want to fuck Absol. @@KaroxNightshade
@@KaroxNightshade Well... I'm afraid that still doesn't change the situation.
CANNOT get over 5:26 where Jan’s reply said, “yeah I’m mentioning that in my suicide note”😂😂😂
DUDE i was flabberghasted too.
I WAS LOOKING FOR ANYONE ELSE WHO NOTICED LOL
beartic warping time and space was probably the best part of the run
Beartic is a paradox
That beartic was a cursed artifact
bro did his best giratina impression
That’s why it’s my favorite mon
That's so funny tbh, Beartic is broken apparently
Who would have thought you two went from enemy's to lovers.
alpharad's japan trip video eleven minutes and fourteen seconds in.
*enemies
Truly ;)
@bentley422 This is why you sit alone at the cafeteria
@@Thegooseishereatlast
*stop it. get some help*
Jan obviously respects Jacob enough to spend hours playing a nuzlocke with him. But the fact he will never say the words is so goddamn funny!
This, ladies, gentlemen, and esteemed NBs, is called being a tsundere (*‘ω‘ *)
He’s just too edgy
He is just a edgy tsundere
Outside voice Jan and depressed voice Jacob is an unholy union the world isn't ready for
Jan loves Lilligant, jacob loves Whimsicott. funny how that works out
Jan has great taste
@@animatetrioj1507 Yeah, I can respect it. I don't see Pokémon in that way, but Lilligant is probably my favorite grass Pokémon.
Liligant is cool tbh (imo)
they're so cute together frfr
i guess the differences between Jan and Jacob are _Black and White_
Alpharad: Gets mentioned as Nuzlocke King
Jan: That's going into my will/suicide note
When I saw that in the vid that caught be off guard damn
13th reason why
his 13th reason why
yo, as funny as it is to tell people to kys, suicide is not a joke
to be clear, i meant telling people that youre killing yourself, not telling others, never tell that to others, only yourself
Jacob and Jan’s rivalry reminds me of siblings trying to prove to their parents that they’re the better child
More like stepsiblings;)
@@markshaw3711WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING 😨😨
Jacob kissed Jan lol@@anomaliexxx
@@markshaw3711PUT THE HORNY AWAY RIGHT NOW
@@markshaw3711How to tell someone has a p*** addiction
Watching the beartic mystery unfold was like reading a creepypasta.
Jacob: “Have i finally earned your respect?”
Jan: *without hesitation* “No”
it killed me every time 😂😂
wow what an asshole move
should we call an ambulance or are you already dead?
@@marshallwAI No, as we can clearly deduct from his statement, that he has indeed died multiple times, which signifies that an ambulance would not solve his problems. I think it's better to ask how many times he has watched the last 4 sec of the video.
honestly if that run was the first and not the second it might have earned his respect
Jacob inspires me.. My parents said if i get 60K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...
I’m so glad the nuzlocke king has really taken poor Jan under his wing. Hopefully Jan takes a few lessons away from this educational experience!
Honestly there both kings in their own right
Jacob inspires me.. My parents said if i get 60K followers They'd buy me a professional camera for recording..begging u guys , literally
Begging...
I'm convinced every copy of s/v has its own unique set of glitches. Mine is that sometimes when I do a picnic the table doesnt spawn. So when I try to make a sandwich the ingredients either fall into the void and count as placed or go ragdolling into the void and count as dropped depending on the will of the universe. The only way to fix it is to close and reopen the game. It is incredible to behold. It even happens in multiplayer, my partner and I checked.
Mine is that sometimes I jump and...don't land. It stays like that for about 20 seconds before respawning me
I get both the picnic table one and the stuck mid jump glitches.
Every copy of scarlet/violet is personalized
Mine is basically the speed glitch in early games. If I go “too fast” (aka fly/glide for a long time) for too long the game either crashes or collision turns off and I fly through the void. Reminds me a lot of playing Morrowind with the Boots of Blinding Speed.
I love their struggles with the load-bearing cubchoo. This game is such an experience.
I love how Alpha gladly refers to himself as the King of Nuzlockes, up until 12:13 when things go wrong, and all of a sudden Jan is now "Mr Pokemon Nuzlocke"
It's because TH-cam once called him the King of Nuzlockes and he let it get to his head
Character development 😂
Hearing Jan with and Alpha change voice tones at 10:55 is so cursed, somehow
Leaving Jan out to dry on the sexiest Pokemon question was comedy gold.
Jan flipping onto Jacob's energy is probably the funniest thing ever!
Ok, but the part where you two started talking like each other so SO freaking hilarious. Loved it.
10:48
Glad to see the lads playing a perfectly polished video game with no bugs whatsoever
No bugs? The guy used Lokix the whole time!
@@GardenVarietea that's an insect not a bug
@@taipeijoey101 Hah!
@@taipeijoey101that is in fact, a bug type
Truly, one of the games of 2022.
13:10 "since hes done being a computer virus-" this one line fucking killed me. no joke nearly choked on my gum from laughing. XD
If I've learned anything from this video, it's that Jan is not used to Gen7 and onward gimmicks, and honestly? I don't blame him.
I've also learned that Beartic is a universe buster. Its mere existence tears apart the fabric of Scarlet and Violet (which albeit, may be an unimpressive feat in the grand scheme of things).
At this point I'm beginning to wonder if I bought the wrong game, because the only real big technical problems I've had in Scarlet and Violet were in online Tera Raids. Otherwise, only some small hiccups and overall way more smooth than I would have been led to believe.
@@gengarzilla1685 Probably have some mods installed.
@@gengarzilla1685Yeah same, I haven't had a single issue in pokemon S/V
10:04 Hearing Jan's genuine laugh is kinda nice ngl
How is it possible to use that Onix clip as much as it's been without being repetitive? There's just something special about how terrible that death was.
How did it take 3 weeks for someone to reply to THE ITALIAN MEATBALL
How did it take 3 MONTHS for a second reply, though?
"Oh, it's You" from a Hat in Time playing while Alpharad is imitating Jan is somehow the funniest thing alive. (10:49)
I think that this video shows something interesting about their respective Nuzlocking styles. Alpharad's gung-ho YOLO style, when tempered with strategic wit, is actually better for regular, unhacked Pokemon games, whereas Jan's meticulously planned style is good for Kaizo hacks but actually holds him back in vanilla play.
Alpharad calling himself the nuzlocke king feels personal
He didn’t, TH-cam did
and Jan took that personally
Solid reference @@lucygirl1111
Alpharad being named the best nuzlocker is Jan’s 14th reason why. (His 13th one was Beartic)
I love how Jan went from being very knowledgeable about Pokemon and telling people what they do wrong... to getting trolled by other TH-camrs
I can't wait for Jacob and Jan's Pokémon themed wedding, where they both break out the cat ears again 💯
I always get jumpscared by the frame rate of scarlet and violet
I mean, if you get jumpscared at the same rate the scarlet and violet runs, your heart will still be racing by the time Alpharad drops another Nuzlocke video.
Truly one of the collabs of all time

I find it funny how every Soul-link Nuzlocke that Jacob is a part of, his partner will always unreasonably struggle as he breezes through as Lady Luck awaits in his chambers. Jaiden and Jan had to fight tooth and nail to get through whilst Jacob just wins uncontested
Never ask:
A man his salary
A woman her age
Alpharad what Cubchoo evolves into
Jan pondering on the sexiest pokemon whilst fussing an Igglybuff is just adorable in its own way. 😄
huh?
This video feels like a step by step guide on being passive aggressive
Jan runs off years of Pokémon knowledge and experience, alpha runs off divine intervention and comedic timing
Alpharad uploads a Pokemon Nuzlocke video.
Me: "Show the clip. Come on, we all know that you're BOTH riding that clip for at least another decade."
Not even 10 seconds in. 😂
You may not have earned his respect, but you did earn his love
Honestly really enjoy the dynamic between Alpha and Jan! Very fun to watch haha!
Jan and Alpha doing a random mental energy switch in the middle of the video was traumatizing
Glad you guys finally had your first date :)
5:25 slayed me his response is so funny
I was looking to see if anyone else caught that, I was dying of laughter 😂
8:34 $60 game from a $92 billion franchise btw
10:21 clear evidence that GF needs to have a dev cycle longer than a fucking year
Honestly, I'm not even sure if we can really blame GF's short dev time on that. Like, even after almost a full year of people ragging on the game's bugs and glitches, this is the first time I've seen this kind of glitch happen to _anyone._ Odds are that would've slipped through the testing even with a longer dev cycle if it's this rare and unreplicateable.
Jan: let me just calculate every point of ev and damage my pokemon will receive
Alpharad: What is that? Strategy?, I just need 3 items and 2 moves to sweep.
15:02 never thougth that making a sandwich would have That much sexual tension....
5:26 I love how it’s perfectly cut off so you can see “ yeah I’m mentioning that In my suicide note” below
I'm not gonna lie; Toxtricity is one of my top favorites of all time, and I didn't know his ability also resisted sound based move....you learn something new everyday.
Jacob: "im good at nuzlockes"
Everyone: "Editor, play the clip"
“WHAT DID I SAY BRADEN?!!!!” Will never get old
Best Enemies to lovers video I've seen this year, good work guys!
perfect ratio of rival-ing to genuine hyping jan. it always feels fun between you two, love that!
After hearing that song at 14:00 I want Alpha to play the trails series now
Man, i love how Jacob coaches Jan as a creator as Jan coaches (or coached) Jacob. Man didnt know what he started in that nuzlocke reaction video.
Man I love y'alls relationship arc haha. But mainly that you seem to legit have fun.
11:04 Sanji san
This video has single-handedly reassured me purchasing Scarlet and Violet is still a bad idea. 💀
Jacob and Jan, the sweetest collab ever
my favorite pokemon has been cubchoo for almost a decade, and seeing jacob's cubchoo refuse to evolve made me smile 😭 my baby stays unevolved
My favorite part is when alpha said he needed to bring his starter so Jan can use his as if he didn’t just do that same thing in the first two gyms lol
5:25 "i'm mentioning that in my suicide note." Is way too funny
I have yet to discover how people keep getting such awful glitches in these games. Because I have played so much of both single player and multiplayer, and just never have gotten those.
13:41 no way jacob just use "get over the barrier" music. Guess jan is the final barrier for jacob to be the nuzlock master
Beartic, the hacker of games, destroyer of nuzlockes, almost destroyed Alpha’s game.
The most enemies to lovers Nuzlocke ever
Found your channel through Jan’s reaction vids ages ago, super happy to see the soul link collab come together over the past year
I honestly really enjoyed the energy between you two. Very comedic would love to see more duo-plays between you two
That fucking Onix clip is a cornerstone of your career as a Poketuber. It's not even an in-joke you can't live down, at this point it's part of your foundation. The narrative of your journey back into Pokemon as an adult starts from that moment.
Which just find really funny, because that incredible fuckup is in retrospect the best career decision you could have made in that moment.
They should definitely fight the AI Professor in these challenges
but then you have to keep playing more of Scar/Vio
@@misirtere9836what’s wrong with that there probably the best Pokémon games
People are so hung up on the bugs that they refuse to see the good game beneath it. Shit, even _with_ the bugs, this game beats XY, SM, and SwSh hands down.
@@woopersupremacy6081 reported for hate speech
@@isaackaumeyer6847 why did you report me?
Cubchoo's one of my favorite pokemon, and the idea that it has an evolution (which it doesn't) is outrageous, glad to see the games follow my belief 8:50
Regarding Alpha’s Lokix against Geeta, no Pokémon on her team resists Bug (except Glimmora, but it always Teras away it’s resistance), and every Pokémon that’s neutral to Bug is weak to Fighting. So you only need 2 types to have complete super-effective coverage for her whole team. (And Alpha’s Lokix has moves for both those types)
Can’t have a nuzlocke video without the obligatory onix mention
Jacob is so clever. Creating hype with the kiss clip and posting this video and the japan vod.
The character arc between these two over the years has to be a favorite of the Pokemon community at this point
God I love when these two collab. It's extremely endearing.
14:51 this is exactly how i lost my shiny voltorb. apparently, in multiplayer sessions, if you run from a pokemon, it just disappears. im still salty over it
Jan's venomoth carrying on ATV's legacy against Hassel's dragon team made me smile
"want to learn icicle crash ?"
"no"
"welp" *[icicle crashes your game]*
14:24 beartic appears in the background 😂
17:52 octopath traveler music my beloved
so true i love battle at journey’s end
21:26 is the best part of the video though....
keep in mind that Pokémon is the most successful franchise in human history, and this is the game they put out. 9:00
We all know this is an enemies-to-lovers story, we all saw 11:14 of the Japan vid...
We need a whole stream/video where Jan and Alpha switch personalities lmfao
"Oh, another SV Soul Link between Jacob and Jan?"
"Ah, nevermind, it's the same run from 9 months ago, with the cursed Beartic and all that."
I love the extended sequence of how this games bugs have not improved in the slightest even after a year of patches. Highest grossing franchise in the world btw.
Alpha truly is the definition of pettiness
Man, Alpha will never let that onyx clip die
Radiata Stories is my favorite video game of all time so o greatly appreciate the OST being played loud and proud starting at 6:47.
Thank you very much! ❤❤❤❤
5:26 bro really said “I’m putting that one in my suicide note 💀”
The rivalry never stops being funny
Cubchoo deystroying Alpharads switch is so funny 😭
New creepypasta just dropped
god i hate game freak
Cubchoo **sneezes*
Game **breaks*
Man, that little guy is so broken, pls nerf
