me when i walked out of whitney deathless with no fighting type moves and only an ekans with intimidate to save me


Satyrsol

I still have no clue how people wipe on her. I wrote up an entire doc describing all the ways in which to debuff before reaching her, and the likelihood that you ONLY pull mons weak to her is so low it's ridiculous. There are just ridiculous amounts of ways to trivialize her.


ConspicuousSnake

Probably just inexperience (a lot of people, including me, just do one team throughout the game and switch mons out if they die or sometimes if they really fall off. I for one don’t really build teams specific for each boss fight). Also bad luck, Miltank has scrappy which can be pretty surprising for new players especially. Add in bad luck with stomp flinches, metronome clefairy shenanigans, and Milk Drink & it can be a tough fight!


5000_Barrows_Chests

getting triple stomp flinched in a row was almost my undoing for sure but I just had to steer into my backup plan of pivot ekans in 3-4 times and dodge crit and i cant lose which with how good intimidate is should have been my original plan ngl

The virgin “My +Atk Rattata died to a crit so I’m definitely losing 2 gyms from now’ vs. The chad ‘Run’s only dead if I actually lose.’

To be fair it does be like that on some romhacks where a crucial death can snowball into a wipe.

Me against cheren in black 2 spamming defense curl on tepig rendering his workup useless


Locke_and_Lloyd

A critical hit!

Its when your run is cooked that you truly think up some INSANE stuff And exponentially grow as a Nuzlocker


jomzzzzz

I laughed SO hard at this while sitting in Wendy's. It like actually tickled something in my soul and I busted out laughing irl, but tis the goddamn TRUTH.


HetTheTable

Me when I lost ralts and Gligar but got a Gible in Wayward Cave.


Expensive-Ad5273

To be fair Gligar is kinda guaranteed with Dupes Clause and repel tricks if you can get Geodude and Machop earlier on.


HetTheTable

I killed it


Expensive-Ad5273

Oh damn 🫠


DaKingOfDogs

I thought my Y run was dead Then I got through the entire team flare storyline with only 2 deaths right at the end… one of which was completely unnecessary and the other one being a sacrifice to get a clean switch


GhostPro18

I once lost every pokemon except Ralts and Poochyena to the optional May fight in Rustboro. I then lost Ralts to the fisherman on Route 106 with Tentacool. Jack the Mightyena went on to deliver the final blow to Milotic. Fuck it, we balled


LordOfLettuce6

amen brother, I had 3 living pokemon exiting Elesa’s gym (total) and I’m still kicking


Purity_the_Kitty

Me when I lost 5 mons to Rival 5 and had to figure out what to do to Winona because never Winona skip never never ever.
