I tried my first Pokémon Nuzlocke. It almost broke me.

After watching countless Nuzlocke runs and dabbling in casual ones myself, I finally decided to try a proper Pokémon Nuzlocke of Pokemon Fire Red... But nothing could prepare me for how stressful this can be. It almost broke me!
The rules are nuzlocke ones which means:
1) Once a Pokémon faints it is considered gone and cannot
be used anymore.
2) You can only catch your first encounter in every area.
3) You must nickname every Pokémon.
4) Once you white out the run is over.
Also added are the typical hard-rules:
5) You cannot use items in battle. Held items are allowed.
6) You have to change the Battle-Style to "Set".
7) You cannot level past the next Gym Leaders strongest Pokémon.
8) No Legendaries, they're too strong.

This got recommended to me on my TV, watched the whole thing thinking “wow this guy is good why have I not been recommended him before” just to see after the video that this is your first! What a great first video.

This popped into my YT algorithm. Very glad it did. Really looking forward to seeing more nuzlocke content. Subbing looking for more of it when it comes out. This man deserves more than 70 subs.

Great video. I've never done a Nuzlocke myself since I get so attached to my pokemon 😅 But I love watching other people go through the torment 😂 I can't wait to see your next videos. Wit this insane quality of video, you've definitely earned my sub. Keep up the good work. And for the record... I prefer Corphish as the best crab-ish pokemon (I know it's a lobster, but it has claws like a crab so it counts😂)

I will NOT allow this slander against Kingler, he is the best Crab! (I kid, corphish's cool :P ) Ye I get that, I used to wait for a LONG time before my first Nuzlocke!

that alakazam at the end would go down in one shot if you used earthquake or even wing attack. dragon is treated as a special attacking type in gen 3, which is the one defense alakazam has. i know, it's weird considering dragon dance boosted physical attack even back then.

Yeah I remembered that when I looked at the footage... Pre-Physical special split types never made sense to me 😅 Alakazam is super frail physically...owell. Learned that for next time!

I remember my first nuzlocke. Mine was also fire red! My final team was Blastoise, Nidoking, Arcanine, Jolteon, Haunter and Clefable! I had like 12 deaths. My surviving members were Blastoise, Jolteon, and Arcanine. Lance's Aerodactyl got 2 omni boosts with ancient power. Started cooking.

Oof those Omniboosts are ROUGH huh? I always just hope they don't happen lol, I need to play around statboosts some more. Sounds like a dope team, Jolteon's one I definetly missed out on entirely, it's SO good
