Do Pro Nuzlockers ACTUALLY know anything about Pokémon?

День тому

I invited 4 of the BEST Nuzlockers in the world to test their skills when it comes to Pokémon knowledge. Just how good are the professional Nuzlockers who play some of the hardest Pokémon challenges?

@DKQuagmire Рік тому

oh that clip was hilarious. i got the feeling that most of these Nuzlockers never played the older generation Pokemon games, as a lot of the abilities worked completely differently in generation 3, than how they work today. Sturdy for example, only effected actual OHKO moves. moves with the names: Fissure, Horn Drill, Guillotine and Sheer Cold. It was in generation 5, that the ability was changed to allow the Pokemon to survive on 1HP, if it would be knocked out, from "Full HP" from any attack in the game. Basically Focus Sash!

Wait, if the reasoning Miltank comes in is because it's not weak to Houndoom's STAB and has a super effective move, how is Machamp's Dynamic Punch not considered? Doesn't it have a higher base power than EQ?

@cullenlatham2366 Рік тому

only a blind guess from a not-experienced nuzlocker, but accuracy/power average? Example numbers: 120 base power, 50% accuracy averages out to 60 damage per turn before pokemon stats are factored in and comes out to less than a 70 base power move that hits 100% (or near enough to make rounding vs slightly more complicated numbers) of the time. 120>70, but 60 average

I started in gen 3, and they have been present ever since, but i thought i heard that they were not introduced until gen 3. By that logic, gen 2 AI will not account for it unless we are talking about romhacks that "retroactively" introduce them. The second point is just the unknown minutia of the AI in general. He already threw a "hidden power is always seens as normal by AI, regardless of actual type" twist, so again the AI might ignore something as obvious as abilities. Just to be clear, still just speculation. I have no clue how true any of what ive said is, but i wanted to take a swing, regardless of how wildly off i was.

This is correct. i have no clue why they weren't both correct. I understand it not being ttar as HP is treated as Normal type in the gen, however not only does houndoom *lose* to machamp on the dark side, since machamp *resists* dark, but machamp is also *neutral* to houndoom's fire type moves, and it *also* hits houndoom for fighting type super effective damage. By all means, if any, machamp would be prioritized by smart ai.

I was doing pretty well with the MB questions until the infernape one. I thought it would be Lucario cause I see it having 4x damage plus stab and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have any specific weakness to aggron. Now I'm curious on how well I'd do on that type chart quiz as well

@CharlesABelair Рік тому

I'm guessing that the Gen 4 AI goes in for supereffective rather than resisances beforehand, according to what Captain Kidd explained, therefore making it Infernape and Lucario both being 4 x supereffective with Fighting, and Neutral with either Fire or Steel. So I suppose Infernape comes in first solely because it is before Lucario in the roster... Otherwise, I thought the same as you, Lucario is actually more resistant as Rock is neutral on Infernape, Steel is resisted by Infernape. While Rock is resisted by Lucario and Steel is also resisted by Lucario.

@galaxystudios370 Рік тому

alright here's what happened. Every pokemon in the back has a quad effective move, so it then goes to type matchups. The way it's calculated is calculating the effectiveness of each pokemon's types against Aggron. Infernape gets a score of quad + neutral. Lucario also gets a score of quad + neutral. (Machamp gets quad + quad, but that causes overflow and it's ranked below quad + neutral) With a tie between Lucario and Infernape, it goes by team order and Infernape is sent out.

@xenowolf7285 Рік тому

@@galaxystudios370 Ooohh, okay. That makes sense cause I had it down to infernape and Lucario when I was watching. I picked Lucario because it would be a special attacker and aggron is a physical tank. I can see how a computer wouldn't acknowledge that though. Thank you!
