    “Time to DELELELWHOOP-SOME ASS” is my new favorite quote for all of 2024 and will be hard to beat
  • Spidops is one of the cruelest jokes in the franchise. HP: 60 Atk: 79 Def: 92 Sp. Atk: 52 Sp. Def: 86 Speed: 35 Total: 404 They gave this Gen 9 Pokémon the stats spread of a Gen 2 Pokémon.

    "Quatro Three" is the perfect name for Forretress and I am shocked that I never noticed how well that works
  • Bugs have improved drastically over the years but damn does Spidops suck. Lokix is pretty dope though
  • @thechillman4893
    I think what sucks about the Lokix loss the most is that it has Throat Chop, a move that it not only learns at level 36, exactly the level cap of Larry, but it also eliminates the usage of sound attacks. Since Torch Song is a sound attack and that's the only Fire-Type move that Nemona's Skeledirge ever learns at this point and beyond, all of those sacrifices you made to that crocodile would have been prevented very easily.
  • 12:24 if your Lokix was level 36, it would have learned Throat Chop, effectively shutting down Skelerdirge and saving you many mons in the process lol

    Even if only for novelty, Spidops could've made a reasonable Bug/Normal candidate. Nine generations in and still we haven't filled out every type combo XD A great run though. Always appreciate bug types, they're such charming chaps

    I'm 'buzzing' with excitement to watch this video.

    LET'S GO! I was in fact just rewatching your Pokémon Y Poison Monotype, and was appreciating the beauty that is Scolipede. Not in this game, yes, but STILL A BUG! Loving this run, Antler!

    Yanmega is one of the most underrated pokemon ever.
  • @samtrue3
    Finally a run that uses vespiqueen and they survived their first battle, a first on many nuzlocks

    I don’t know how they manage to make Scizor look more and more incredible, but they do
  • I liked the little "Ahh" when he caught Surskit. Great video man!!
  • @LAZERAK47V2
    Well, you technically DID end the fight with Nemona in the most humiliating way possible. Poor, poor Quatrothree

    "there's isn't a single bug encounter in the game that takes neutral damage against fire" Larvesta and Dewpider: 👁️👄👁️

    if lokix didnt get knocked out he would've been perfect for geeta, literally solos her
