#nuzlocke #pokemon #romhack - เกม
Appreciated the detailed thoughts on every game and the difficulty ratings are really helpful as well. S-Tier video with a watchability rating of 10.0
SHEEEESHHH 😳
Imagine being me, casually watching this on my lunch break and all of a sudden there I am featured in a Drxx video LOL
Fantastic video, very insightful as always!
LOL thanks homie means alot
another note about inclement emerald is the type randomizer, its incredible how the pokemon's appearance changes to match the type
really appreciate this! been looking for new romhacks to try out
Glad you mentioned rising ruby/sinking sapphire, finished one recently and it was awesome
I actually just had this question the other day and it’s been mostly unanswered, excited for this!
This is a pretty cool list. Definately never heard of some on these hacks before but Im keen to give them a go, like Emerald Kaizo.
I loved your hardcore rad red run, just finished watching it 👍
its the new hack on the block mate
Great video Drew, 10/10 for the video and the detailed explanations of the ROM Hacks
thanks!
This should be an interesting list
Honestly, I think Drayano's hacks are pretty fun to Nuzlocke. Games like Incliment Emerald sound fun too from what I saw
Highly suggest!
just what i needed man! thank u! very informative
Had that exact question a week ago. Thanks mate, saved me quite some research!
Loving the content recently man. Really enjoyable videos, keep it up!
that means a lot Fez!
Great video, I popped big time for the Shady footage as he is my favourite content creator
Thanks man, this is a really really helpful video.
Great video man!
Ayoooooo fire video bro accurate af tier list. Also love the doc z cameo y’all should so a soulink on a random romhack👀
Thanks homie. Docz is a homie maybe I’ll set one up 👀
Great video!
the best romhack showcase i’ve seen in a while
YES!!!! NEW DRXX VIDEO LET'S GO!!!!!!!!
Ooh whoever drew those avatars did a great job!
Talking about incoming ROM hacks, do we have any news regarding Platinum Kaizo ? I feel like I have not heard of it in a long time. Great video, I will probably try Inclement Emerald
Nice video, I enjoy
Sick video Xxew
PNG DRXX LETS GO
WE MOVING UP
@@Drxxyt or down…
He’s finally a real TH-camr
@@Drxxyt he's lying
Jellybean level of content 🔥🔥🔥
one day ill actually play a romhack, and this list seems really helpful for choosing the right game for skillset + what you enjoy.
its a ton of fun!
I always wanted to start a rom hack. But I have no expierence so I gotta start with easy ones. Now I can actually see where to start thank you :)
no problem! highly reccomend glazed
Just finished my Renegade Plat Nuzlocke last week and the gift Pokemon's are CRAZY. I got lucky getting a good IV's for Typlosion but Adaptability eruption goes hard.
it really does lmao
I been playing XG: Next Gen, and while its rough around the edges, its a great experience. Having to fight your encounters with the Trainer ai and shadow moves is pretty hard, but it makes you think a lot about strategies. All double battles, tons of buffs and all in the 3D engine of Pokemon XD:Gale of Darkness
Great list, it coincides with many or all of the hacks I've been looking at and introducing to friends to casually Nuzlocke.
Not sure if you've checked in on Radical Red/Unbound recently but they both got an updated Hardcore/Insanity AI that actively cheats way more than it did previously. This includes completely lack of consistency in decision-making (the AI can choose to swap into resistances, or stay in and click certain moves in the exact same situations. You can check within the same opener of a battle that it does different things). Even the person who does the AI guide has talked about how things have changed and strats need to be completely reworked.
As an intermediate or so player myself, the new AI is crazy annoying since it's almost impossible to do regular nuzlocke planning, especially with switching more than twice activating parts of the AI like clicking random move to catch a switch in with a surprise attack type.
i agree. the ai is very unique I guess the fact that it can read some of the stuff you have isn't for everyone. I will say though players have taken advantage of this like for example putting rapid spin on a pokemon so the ai doesn't go for hazzards
That Vintage White game sounds pretty neat. I should try it out one day.
you should man
Honestly, what's cool is that The Drayano HGSS hack is using basically a version of CFRU being developed for HeartGold - and with that, it's also gonna make HG hacking easier!
Pokemon Glazed is still my favorite rom hack of all time. That game is a blessing!
🗣ANOTHER CERTIFIED DRXX BANGER INCOMING 🗣
UH OH BANGER ALET
Alert*
I started a nuzlocke on pokemon unbound but I loved it so much when I first whited out I just kept playing and decided to 100% it instead. Such an amazing game!
The thumbnail gives us an important life lesson I had to learn the hard way: _don't you dare nuzlocke Snakewood_ .
Crystal Maeson might be interesting for you. Also the new release of Pokemon Coral might be big
To speak on ren plat I think it’s amazing because it is hyper consistent. With repel Manips and a lot of guaranteed encounters like milotic, togekiss, gliscor, and a bunch of other gift Pokémon like all the starters, eevee, and Beldum. There’s also a lot of thought that needs to go into deciding what encounters in an area are worth going for such as scyther being guaranteed but if you take it you lose out on the possibility of Skarmory. With the shear magnitude of honey trees you can also guarantee a lot of those encounters as they are very similar route to route but can lose out on other good mons. Some of the best examples out of this is snorlax, ambipom and heracross. As well the infinite tms and easy access to move relearner and deleter makes it easy to completely change how a mon is used every fight. There are still the exceptions of mons like togekiss which get loses access to its old moves once it evolves which is unfortunate because it has at least 6 moves that it loves to have.
With the changes to balance pretty much every Pokémon is usable with minimal exceptions. The only encounter that I consistently found myself not using is whismur and is without a doubt the worst pokemon in this game. It’s encountered before the first gym and has a descent chance to find it and there isn’t a single battle I can think of where it’s useful. It barely even works as a dupe as there’s only one other place you can encounter it.
whismur in oreburgh mine is pain incarnate
Honored to be used as footage in this vid!
off of this guide to nuzlocking romhacks i thought prismatic moon would be about as simple as nuzlocking any old drayano hack but holyyyy was i wrong, instead of resetting over and over again i decided to do a casual playthrough with healing items and such, and the game is very unforgiving, ive practically deemed it impossible to beat without an increased level cap on the Lana water trial, that fight is the most unforgiving fight there is, rain+speed boost aura with a fully evolved mon along w an actual viable sos call genuinely defeated me. Even though the game is tough i still hughly reccomend it its a lot of fun. Finally, thank you for such an informative video drew very cool 10/10 ign
I hope my romhack gets into one of these list one day when it gets soon finished, is nothing crazy but completely scrambles gen 1
Could you do a video about Pokemon Soulstones? It's an amazing fangame and I think it deserves a lot more attention. A Nuzlocke of Soulstones would be a decent challenge.
Bro where did that sick snorlax on the thumbnail emerge from
A Very Old And Outdated Romhack By The Name of Pokemon Snakewood
I’d highly recommend Pokémon Xenoverse as well: a lot of very fun new Pokémon designs, interesting characters, tough bosses… it feels like a 90s/early 2000s Shonen in the best way
mine, balanced for nuzlockes, in depth buffs to every mon, tons of awesome new tools, in depth documentation
wont disappoint
trust
Saw u on flygon hd twitch chat :D
Lets goooo!!!!
Lfg
I've only done a couple nuzlockes on vanilla games in the past, but I've been getting into a lot of nuzlocke videos recently so I decided to try Radical Red on hardcore. After many resets I did at least manage to beat Brock before I quit, but I only realized how insanely bad an idea that was after watching this video. I knew something fucky was going on with the AI but I didn't realize it will straight up just read your switches if you fuck around too much.
Nevertheless, I kept playing through hardcore normally and it's just about the perfect difficulty for my tactically challenged ass
Have you ever played Infinite Fusions ? It might be fun to see nuzlocke of that game
Im curious to know if you think you will ever try to do a hardcore nuzlocke of any of the fan made games like Zeta, Empreyeon or Insurgence? I know those have some difficulty modifiers as well so I would be interested to see how they would compare to the more mainline rom hacks.
yeah it seems like fun. id need to know more about them though to know that its worth the time investment
On the fan game note, Rejuvenation has an intense mode that so far almost no one has beaten the 5th gym. It’d take forever to beat but I’d love to see you try it.
Glazed and light platinum were my childhood
Does crystal clear have much boss documentation? I want to play it but half the fun is planning for the types and moves of the opponent.
Crystal kaizo+ has become my literal favourite game of all time
Fun Fact Glazed actually has 3 Regions
oh wow
Thoughts on polished crystal? :)
I love inclement emerald it’s everything I love about my first game ever with all my favorite Pokémon and quality of life changes in a gen 3 game. Highly recommended for anyone interested in an amazing not to hard rom hack
Hey if you can ever find the chance.
Could you attempt a nuzlocke of Pokemon Elite Redux? It is VERY hard if you go full-on elite mode
i watched how FlygonHG was doing the inclement emerald and oh my god thank you for reminding me how horrible his MSpaint drawings of pokemon were
Oh mah gawd the nicknames KEKW
A fun fan game to nuzlocke is pokemon Reborn, games really hard and has an interesting story.
“Not too over powering or out of your control-“
Genie horde:
what's the outro song?
Currently nuzlocking Inclement Emerald, it's been a joy so far.
Such a beautiful game!
Its an underrated gem
What the hell did they do to me in the thumbnail?!
Where is that snorlax from in the thumbnail?
As someone who hasn't really played past gen 3, I find myself surprisingly reticent to play expansion hacks adding mons from gen 8 for example. It just adds to the intellectual overhead for how many different mechanics I have to consider. This is why I appreciate the more minimalist games, like garbage green
having more options and more interatictions with different trainers is very fun too i at least encourage you too try radical red because you dont have to worry about a lot of things
Well, it‘s obvious that Radical red and unbound are similar in features, iirc the creator of unbound made the radical red engine and worked on Unbound based on that engine
Noiceee...〽️
Last year, I did a run of Unbound on Difficult mode, and lost to Aklove battle 2 due to random AI (Run 3). Now I thinking of starting new runs on a harder mode. Recommended?
yea! if you wanna play unbound again id recommend. the jump from difficult mode can be a bit tough so it'll take a lot more prepping
Just beated winona on pokemon inclement emerald, its so fun to nuzlock this game :))
so true!
What was the hack in the thumbnail with the Snorlax with its face ripped off supposed to be?
A Very Old And Outdated Romhack By The Name of Pokemon Snakewood
See, I've played Snakewood. I don't recall that ever being in the hack. I _do_ recall Gorelax, the zombie Snorlax with a human corpse popping out of it, but not that.
@@FoxMan_FF Wait Yeah That Was Gorelax Forgot About It lol
W video
Is there a good DS emulator for android users? And if so, how does it work?
Pokemon Gaia is an S tier game because there is a trainer near the start of the game with two Spinaraks named Hiker Georg.
Having trouble finding blaze black trainer rosters also is there a blaze black calculator
yep its pinned in my discord
Anywhere in particular that you can download these rom hacks?
Is there a Renegade Platinum Showdown calc like there is for ek?
Yes this exists. And it's pretty helpful
@@g_hyperstar3609 where can i find it?
Yep! Just put it in the description
Just put it In description the discord also has it pinned
Why does vintage white have glaceon if it’s only up to gen 3 tf
Maybe would have been worth adding hacks that would be in F tier
Basically excuse for Dark Rising
Lmao maybe I can do a video of the worst romhacks to nuzlocke
@@Drxxyt gotta put bloody red in that tier list
Wait an insane mode unbound nuzlocke is possible?
Why is it that 90% of recommended hacks are of remakes of the main series games. There’s way to many great games with custom regions that take way longer to make and are a lot more fun with their own story, region, and bosses. I swear they never get as much love as the remakes for already made games
The reason is probably that most of those don't exclusively focus on gameplay, which makes them less attractive for nuzlocke players. And most of the content on rom hacks currently is nuzlockes and challenge runs, so custom hacks that focus more on story and worldbuilding don't get as much exposure.
My personal favorite hack I've played recently was Fire Red: Rocket Edition. The story was amazing, albeit very strange at the end, and the gameplay has a very creative twist. But it really isn't that challenging, and its structure makes it awkward to nuzlocke, so if that is the reason you play Pokemon, this is unfortunately not the game for you.
@@FiboSai Oh that makes a bit more sense now, thx for explaining
Kinda surprised Pokemon Fool's Gold hasn't made the cut here, not gonna lie. Maybe just because it's a very good hack, yet not particularly good to nuzlocke, or at least not a particularly better nuzlocke experience than those shown here?
Rom hacks are about more than difficulty.
These romhacks are for a gameplay focused nuzlocking or challenges audience, there are plenty of other channels that cover more rom hacks
I know I'm a bit late and probably anyone will see my comment but one recomendation of mine in a good rom hack to nuzlocke is grand colosseum a difficult mod in pokemon colosseum a spin off for the game cube ehich is amazing its very hard bur not unfair with the player and every battle is a double battle too (but the double battle thing is in the base game)
er.. what fakemons are in Blaze Black 2 Redux? I'm not far in but haven't seen one and searching online doesn't mention a single thing anywhere about fakemon. Please point me to where I can look into this or if you fucked up
How do you feel about Blue Kaizo?
It's one of the best rom hacks for sure. Momentous challenge
original is fine. not for me personally but I get its appeal
Pokemon Clover :)
Anyone know if theres a way to get rare candies in Rising Ruby and Sinking Sapphire?
I can't find that techno emerald romhack it sounded so interesting and I can't play it ;-;
sad at the no mention of pokemon reborn
clover
i agree with everything on this list except the "makes johto more bearable" comment. johto's a phenomenal region! two regions in one, epic lance fight, even more epic red fight, fantastic soundtrack. other than that absolutely, even to the point of unbound being top tier
Yeah, my favourite part of playing HGSS was grinding my pokemon from level 40 to level 50 between the 8th gym and the elite four, fighting underlevelled trainers in kanto until I'm given the privilege of grinding up to level 70 in route 26 again off of level 30-40 pokemon, beating the elite four again so that I can grind to level 80 off of level 40-50 pokemon, doing all of this with no lucky egg unless you go to one specific route to find a 1% chansey with a 5% rate of having a lucky egg. I also loved the new pokemon like gyarados, gengar, ledian, furret, noctowl, golem, ariados, shuckle, delibird and stantler. They were all so cool to catch and use! The gym leaders also used a lot of new pokemon, like Bugsy's Scizor, Jasmine's Skarmory, Chuck's Heracross, Morty's Misdreavus and Falkner's Noctowl!

HAIL EMI CALC
can TH-cam Voice Drew read me a bedtime story?
Once upon a time, there was a mighty Pokémon named Seaking. Seaking lived in a vast and wondrous world filled with all kinds of fascinating creatures. Seaking was a fierce fighter, known for its powerful horn and ability to swim at incredible speeds. But despite its strength, Seaking was also kind and gentle, always ready to help its friends in need.
One day, a young trainer came to the world, seeking to catch and train Seaking. The trainer was brave and determined, but Seaking was no easy catch. Every time the trainer tried to throw a Poké Ball, Seaking would dodge and swim away, showing just how fast and agile it truly was.
But the trainer was not discouraged. They continued to train and work hard, always seeking to improve their skills. And finally, after many attempts, they succeeded in capturing Seaking. From that day forward, the trainer and Seaking traveled the world together, taking on all comers and becoming the best of friends.
And so, as the sun sets on this world of wonder and adventure, we can remember the bravery and determination of the young trainer and the power and grace of the mighty Seaking. Goodnight.
this weird filter you put on the videos is weirding me out, but good video
