I really love your content lately. As a dad, watching these once the kids are in bed is something I look forward to. Now you’re considering Nuzlocke, I’d love to watch you to a randomised Nuzlocke. This why you have to play on your feet all the time. It’ll be fun, anyway, thanks a lot for content bro!

This month is the best month

As a lay out for nuzlocke rules, there are 3 1. One encounter per route/area 2. Faint = death 3. Nickname everything Dupes clause and whiteout=reset are general rules which most players play with (although the reset rule is cruel to beginners) Hardcore rules 1. No bag items except pokeballs in battle 2. No overlevelling 3. Play on set mode

I think one of the things that makes you a "Great Poketuber" is your in depth yet still casual style. You provide a lot of dense information in a easy and entertaining way. You could possibly do other games if you get passionate about them because the thing that keeps me watching is your presentation.
-
Ok I'm not a big Nuzlocke guy but this may have been the best way to present this run. Analysing how the game is to Nuzlocke and weaving your results in really worked well :)

Keep up the awesome work Jrose, this has truly been a special month. Like I said before each day has gotten better and better! It’s going to be hard to top this month for sure! This video gets the OG Bug Catcher official stamp of approval! 👍

As someone who only does nuzlockes, a 'casual hardcore nuzlocker' is a perfect description for what I do as well. Bringing in calcs and EV training is not fun to me, but hardcore rules are good haha
-
Keep up the good work, Jrose! Much love to you, and your editors too!

I want to see nuzlockes where whiting out isn't a loss. You keep going and until you dont have any pokemon left. This way you have to use your B and C teams. I think it would really open up a lot of new pokemon and strats because usually a persons first team to white out is their best pokemon.

3:11 To clarify the duplicate clause is optional to give you more team variety and doesn't say you can't catch duplicates, just that you have the option to re-encounter that's why it's called a clause. A lot of people either misunderstand / misinterpret the it as a rule where you can't have any dupes when it was initially just made so that people wouldn't end up with a team full of pidgeys thanks to bad encounter luck for example.

Thank you for all of this content Jrose! Don't burn yourself out!
-
Love the video! Always fun to watch Nuzlocke challenges. I'm not the best at them, but I do enjoy them now and again

For anyone who wants to nuzlocke gen 1 (hardcore or normal), a good thing to keep in mind is that crit chance is based off your Pokemon's base speed. So faster Pokemon crit more often. Also Venusaur is a great option as razor leaf legitimately almost always crits (regardless of speed from my experience). Pokemon like Raticate are extremely valuable early game for this purpose. Same with Pokemon like Jolteon, for another example.

More of these, Jrose? Also.. you’re putting out videos so incredibly quick! I haven’t been around in a while and am surprised to see you’re putting out tons of videos :) got a lot to catch up on
-
Loving all the content from recent videos, is something I eager want to watch after work and before going to bed
-
Ooh, now this is an interesting new idea for a video! I’m really curious to see what tips and tricks you’ll have for us!
-
Honestly, due to your solo run series, where you have broken down how to consistently win every fight, you could easily take the information from those, to be the healla best gen 1 nuzlocker.
-
Nuzrose forgot the most important nuzlocking rule: You have to give a nickname to all your mons!
-
Really liking all your new content. Appreciate your work!
-
Yoooo jrose!! thank you for this month of banger content, you’re killing the game lately!
