you know the drill at this point Pokemon faints it dies catch one Pokemon per route and nickname it to set up for emotional trauma but this time we're doing something a bit different a twers Nuzlocke it's technically called a soul link but no one knows what that means so basically you and person two play the same Pokémon game at the same time following the same nuzlock rules however your Pokemon are linked which means if my starter dies player 2's starter also dies and they can't do anything about it plus we can only have one primary
typing for both of our teams combined so if I catch a water type and add it to my team person two can't have a water type at all on theirs and cherry on top all Pokémon are randomized I can walk into the grass at any point and accidentally find God and maybe he'll just kill all my animals right then and there so with all these new rules in place I needed to find a player two one who's a real Pokemon Master able to adapt improvise and strategize all at the drop of a hat and who
else other than Pokémon master himself Jacob alpharad who at this point in time has a 5050 nuzlock win ratio here's our Pokémon heart gold soul silver soul link Nuzlocke we both go downstairs barely greet our mom and immediately beine it to Professor elm's lab to see what Pokémon he's got for us because we don't know they're random in case you forgot what I just said we stroll up to him and he Pats Jacob on the head and goes here choose from these three I picked them specially for you Torterra tentacl or Luda Colo all right
what do I get why not Mankey ariats awesome Jacob takes torta and I take Mankey and we Nam them Franklin on our way to talk to Mr Pokemon Jacob runs into a Reggie Rock in a random patch of grass which just flat out explodes on him no one died luckily but also oh my God we get an egg and immediately Professor Elm calls and tells us he's been robbed and bullied you really couldn't handle being alone for 10 minutes could you on our way back to help a grown adult we stumble onto a shady figure
who scoffs challenges us to a battle with Pokémon stole from Elm which we immediately win scoffs again then drops his wallet passport credit card driver's license Social Security Target gift card on the ground in front of us for the world to see dude get your craps together you can't be doing that when you're a wanted fugitive back in the lab Elm is crying on the floor as the police and our neighbor are trying to comfort him and the police asks us if we saw anyone suspicious yes we saw his info now here we get to
name our rival Jacob and I try to think of someone that we both shared some sort of of rivalry with when we remembered a certain professional Pokemon nuzlock has been consistently reacting and critiquing our nuzlock so far some of his comments were more critical than others and directed at one of us more than the other Mr policeman his name is Jan hi Jan let's see if you can destroy us from the inside out anyway our neighbor takes us out to some grass to show us how to catch a Pokémon runs into Articuno catches it in
a Pokeball in the green and turns to us and goes see just like that they give us some Pokeballs and we can finally start our journey we both run around in the grass and our first encounters are Baro and Houndoom this would have been awesome for Jacob if he could catch the dang thing since we only had pokeballs Hound was not getting in the ball no matter what and we ended up not getting that pair but you know it's all right there's plenty more encounters like hoppit farfetch that Jacob accidentally kills or giodude Gyarados that
Jacob accidentally kills or Tyro Charizard that Jacob accidentally kills hey why do I get this and Jacob gets all this and why do you keep killing him Jacob but finally in the ruins of Elf we managed to catch a new pair sand slash camerupt not bad at all we tried to name them Michael but both misspell it so welcome to the team mels then on Route 32 we catch Totodile Beed which is also pretty good mainly for just me we started combining the two Pokémon to create their names so we ended up somehow with bedroo
we ran into a trainer who had a freaking py on his team fun fact did you know if you Google Pia a type weakness Google will tell you that he's weak to fairy and salamance no other dragons just salamance so Jacob and I started joking around every time we saw Pia oh no if only I had a salamance uh-oh don't have a salamance over here it was kind of strange how many pyas we ran into but that didn't stop us from bullying every single one so we take on fauler the first gym lead who has
Kyogre bronz are and Metagross dragon air oh my God after a lot of difficulty we both managed to beat him with no casualties I don't know how that happened but hey everyone's all right oh he's going to take himself out oh my God how about some encounters to lighten the mood oh hello Shuckle suun that Jacob accidentally kills in aelia town we challenge Bugsy who luckily wasn't as stacked as faler and as we step outside Jan who is surprised we haven't been demolished yet yeah I'm surprised too challenges us to a battle which we also
win we run into M while deox is in the forest who someone accidentally kills and make our way to Golden Rod where there's a security guard that'll give us both a Pokémon he hands me a por gun too which I'm ecstatic about turns to Jacob and gives him Reggie gigas which we can't use because they're both normal types of all the Legends you had to get of course you get the only normal type besides actual God we beat Whitney and in the National Park find pip plop flaffy which we nam plap I pitched to Jacob
that I'm willing to trade the bedros to make room for this new pair so he essentially switches Beil with fluffy which we shake on welcome to the team plaps and then my PL immediately almost gets killed Jaden I'll fix it I'll fix it sorry my bad we find dragon air Shuppet which is an actually insane pair we could use right away but yeah I ended up killing that one look I'm sorry Jacob it is harder than it looks to catch these things we pour water on the strange trees on Route 36 that actually turn out
to be Crilly silon we kind of named them Dilly do and could have added them to the team as death fodder but we ended up forgetting to which is yeah a pretty silly mistake but what's the Worst That Could Happen who needs death fodder in a Nuzlocke Jacob and I make it to ETI and walk into the burnt Tower as we are about to go down there Jan runs up and is like you're only trying to catch suun to make yourselves look stronger than you actually are and we're like no we killed him a while
ago but he still wanted to battle probably to show off the Mew he somehow found we beat him yet again go downstairs scare off the dogs and go challenge Morty Jacob didn't have any trouble for the team Morty had for him but for me I was having a bit of a harder time because he had a Lugia which neither me nor my team could even handle all I could do was bubble beam it with plap and pray I don't get crit one shot as Jacob just sits there watching but it ended up working out we
arrive in Olivine and climbed the giant Lighthouse almost falling to our literal death along the way reach Jasmine at the top who's like climb back down and go get medicine for ay and Sean wood and we were like we almost died getting here surfing to seean Wood we encountered obam snow Pupitar and I know what you're thinking yeah we did catch them aamar joined the team immediately and suddenly we've got a pretty powerful lineup going on also a random guy in town gifted us a Mewtwo and weeping Bell finally I'm the one with the legend
now but we had to box him because we couldn't have two grass types all of this sudden shared luck combined with our zero death win streak got us feeling pretty confident which naturally means it's time to get kicked in the throat specifically by a black belt martial artist Jim leader Chuck was indescribably tough in the most bull crap way possible for me Jacob had no trouble at all because he's Jacob he had a kro which I brought aamar out for nothing else on my team could really do anything against it the main drawback of this
is aamar snow warning ability which creates hail damaging every Pokemon including my own that's not an ice type which is pretty inconvenient in a Nuzlocke I even made a a teeny tiny comment about it when I first got him I can I I'm going to call it snow's going to kill one of my Pokemon kingra goes down and Chuck's only other Pokemon he's only got two is Frost lass who if you don't know has snowcloak snowcloak makes the Pokémon 20% harder to hit if there's hail you want to know how many Pokemon in Gen 4
have this ability five three of which being MMO swine you want to know how many Pokémon there are in heart gold soul silver 493 now I know these odds sound pretty awful already but you know what this Frost less does she uses ominous wind ominous wind has a 10% chance to boost every single stat of the user she gets the that boost twice in a row after a lot of strategizing we both decided the best option for us would be to send in Mel as death fod to heal up plap because he's the only one
that can really do anything at this point and what happens please don't get another stat boost you're he's good he's so good he's no no oh my fras crit one shots Mela as soon as he comes out our first deaths poor camerupt he was so proud for making out of ch's gym and then just Falls over dead for no reason I got PL healed up and basically started heal stalling which sure isn't a noble strategy but come on after literally struggling against my own bad luck for what felt like hours finally frostos goes down finally
holy Jacob practically drags me out of the gym and we head to the BC we decided to add a pair we caught back on Route 35 which was charm Ian Dawn fan named darel a fantastic Duo I was admittedly and I think justifiably still really salty about what we just went through but Jacob convinced me that we should just move on we got our Darth vals leveled up and returned to Olivine to feed ay the medicine that we picked up so Jasmine would finally do her job and check this out already done you're right oh
my God look at our two screens real quick no it's all right she also had a Deoxys we headed to Mahogany Town catching and adding Naran and B barel named Barrel to the team and in the lake of Rage Jacob caught a Kyogre paired with my swall lot we never use this pair but I just wanted to mention it for reasons we approached the glistening shadow of the lake Beast activate the encounter and find a shiny banerian Dawn fan not you know the best but hey free shiny Pokemon doesn't hurt to cat oop I killed
it that's again my bad sorry Lance walks up to us and goes hi I'm Lance grabs Us by the wrist Kicks Down the door to the mahogany Town 7-Eleven kills one of the guys in there and runs into the rocket Hideout where he continues to wipe out any living organism he finds down there classic Lance we decided to copy him and beat up all the executives and their power generator right before we fly to Golden Rod we pick up the seventh badge and then continue curb stomping Team Rocket we were getting a bit too comfy
though and as Jacob wasn't pay pay attention mainly because he just got a chicken sandwich obamarang much more because we weren't paying attention but we did have to move on especially since we were literally in the middle of a gang fight we shoved our way to Rocket executive and big boss Archer and give him a bit of a throat chop so he would calm down and stop doing whatever it is he was is doing and everyone is saved on our way to Blackthorne we catch Frost last cfish which put me into a vengeful trauma spiral
H you and then Jacob caught himself both a suun and an aelf we arrived and took on CLA who led with a Mewtwo against me which at this point I shouldn't even be surprised but all the rest of our team was pretty much a pushover for both of us Claire's a bad sport and refused to think we were good trainers so we talked to the old man behind the gym and he's like so d beat your Pokémon and we're like no and he's like awesome Claire give him the stupid badge what so now we can
head to the elite for hey guys I think you should go fight a hord of Asian women in etique so we enter the eque theater and start fighting the women and the second girl for me sends out ambipom as I switched to Franklin it screeched which I didn't pay attention to and ambipom double hit killed Franklin our starters died dude that was really sad we were about to make it to the elite FL with them and Bam not alive anymore they were with us through everything pretty much the back bone to our teams man Jan's
going to make so much fun of us when he finds out as we're still morning the last kimono girl rest spams with Wailord do you have any dignity woman where we're lamenting over here we try to leave and the girls are all no no go catch the legendary Pokémon he's already got three so I head to Whirl Islands and Jacob scales the Bell Tower and what Legends do we find the legendary zangus and LD finally we have some Freedom again and as soon as we touch the water in Newark to head to Victory Road what
pops up from the bottom of the lake but ente himself and dodo oh my God hello doe that's going in the Box because fire types we catch Cascon regir Rock in Victory Road and heading towards the exit Jan Sprints up from behind us and I iconically say this is your last chance to kill one of our Pokemon Jan and what happens oh my God no what happened oh that's not great oh he killed one of our Pokemon yeah that sucks that really sucks darell was an incredible pair we've had since the fifth gym and we
really grew to lean on we lost quite literally half our team right before the Elite 4 we beat Jan for the last time entered the Indigo Plateau and immediately bolt to the PC to see what kind of damage control we can do after a very long time of trying to stitch together the best teams possible we ended up with this OS andolon beel nid Queen beautifly crad dodrio ente and victory bell meww I know I know wow Jaden super balanced you've got Mewtwo and ente and Jacob has a beautifly look I this is the best
we could do I promise tell them Jacob tell them anyway big deep breath here we go into the unknown depths of the Elite Four willota and Bruno were all no problem at all we breeed right past them everything was going great this is fine done H yeah he's oh oh my God uh it's fine I win these on the other hand Karen was not as nice no I just mean what if he does any charge move oh okay he just did cross trop he's dead it's fine I was safe to fly him I'm just paranoid
oh my God oh my God oh my oh no guys we're so sorry we got you killed in the first like 15 minutes of having you we ended up getting out of the battle with no more casualties but facing Lance with a team of four each is really not ideal to say the least but we walked up to him nonetheless whether we win or lose here this is our last battle he leads with fion and lean which we were both like haah Lance is this all you've got and then he hits us with the no
Jacob was up against his Porygon Rampardos licky licky Zapdos and Plusle and even though it's a pretty stacked team he was holding his own and getting through them really well on my end I was dealing with a giga impacting Snorlax which I really had nothing for I just had to pray for no crits and as many misses as possible it goes down eventually and what does he send out next Pia oh I could really use a salamance right about now this is what we yet we bullied Pia so much during our journey here looking at
my team I don't have anything that can handle Pia either except for Mewtwo and what happens he gets spatial ran crit one shot turn one I am in a lot of trouble I took so much time getting past Snorlax that Jacob was already done with his battle so all he could do was watch this massacre from the sidelines I sent out Dilly to confuse stum and just try to chip away at him with basically nothing and my God was I lucky because if Pia hit one more crit at any point Dilly do and the Run
was over and I was forced to dance on that line for a long time but eventually Dilly duins the finishing blow I was so proud the pair that we caught so early on and deemed his death fod was the one saving us we're so sorry for doubting you Dilly do thank you for sticking by us and not dying but that was only half of Lance's team might I remind you plap took out his sand slash which stung but Bas you came out tanked flap Surf and killed him with metal burst I was in shock with
that one that was our second oldest pair ever since our Franklin's died Jacob and I both started seeing the plops as our Star members Barrel came out and revenge finished the basedon and Lance's last Pokemon was big old hard hitting tanky freaking auma real I sent Dilly Doo back out because Barrel would die immediately and started the chipping game again if that wasn't bad enough as in where will set up the rain and an aqua ring for itself which turned this fight from uh to H this awful one-on-one lasted 10 whole minutes I slap him
he slaps back much harder and then heals and then I heal but eventually Dilly do wins the stalling battle and aumer goes down in an unpredictable turn of events Dilly do saved us from utter defeat what an adventure we just went on insane encounters insane bull crap friends death bullying and the dilly d thanks for going on this journey with me Jacob I quite literally couldn't have done it without you and a salute to the Buddies we made along the way except you [Music] [Music] [Music]
