Shadowing Practice: My First Pokemon Nuzlocke - Learn English Speaking with Video
Les maken...
1
A Pokemon Nuzlocke is a set of rules that turn a normal playthrough of Pokemon into a hardcore playthrough of Pokemon.
2
You're only allowed to catch the first Pokemon you see per route, and if any of them faint, they actually.. don't live anymore, and you can never use them again.
3
The game I will be Nuzlocking will be Pokemon Ruby.
4
Not because I'm copying Jayden, but because Gen 3 is my favorite generation, and out of the three games,
5
Ruby was the one I played as a kid and bought with my own money.
6
It was $40.
7
Imagine paying that much for a copy of the game now.
8
Also, full disclosure, I've seen other Pokétubers who have a deep, uncanny knowledge of this game and use calculators to make the best,
9
most optimal plays, but I'm not quite at that level yet, so I might make choices that some could consider.. suboptimal.
10
I thought Grass was like super effective against water.
11
Why is he super effective against me?
12
But if you can forgive me and look past all that, then let's get out of this truck and start our adventure!
13
Hmm, let's see...
14
Someone's already picked Torchic, and when I played this as a kid, I picked Trico.
15
So that means we're left with Kipmud!
16
After defeating my rival's Trico, I headed to Oldale Town and caught my first Pokemon that would be joining our team, Floof the Poochiana.
17
I'm guessing naming Pokemon after pets is very common in Nuzlocke's.
18
By the way, this is how Floop's very first fight went.
19
OH!
20
OH!
21
Oh my god.
22
Hey!
23
Do you wanna learn how to catch Pokemon?
24
No. I'm good.
25
Well that's too bad!
26
First you wanna get him weak by throwing tiny rocks at him.
27
Traveling through Route 104, I caught a Zigzagoon!
28
Igzy the Zigzagoon.
29
I'm probably not gonna train her up or anything, but she will be useful teaching useless HMs to.
30
What's that, Igzy?
31
You have an ability where you pick up random objects?
32
And you picked up...
33
...a revive?
34
Oh, Igzy...
35
I can't use these!
36
Wandering through Pedalburg Woods, some guy asked me if I'd seen any Pokemon named...
37
SHRUMISH!
38
The main reason Gen 3 is my favorite is because the best Pokemon ever, Breloom makes his debut in this game.
39
Why, if I found a Shroomish in this forest, I would probably react like this.
40
This guy was being truthful.
41
I named Shroomish Goat because not only is he the greatest of all time, but because I was also working on this other video about goats, so I had a lot of goats on the mind.
42
We made it to Rustboro Town and challenged Roxanne, the rock-type gym leader, but thankfully we picked the water starter, so...
43
You know, Kidmup, do your thing.
44
I caught a Taillow on Route 116, and keeping with the naming Pokemon after pets theme, I named him RE2.
45
Not to spoil anything, but don't get too attached to RE2, Jaden.
46
We sailed to Jewford Town and saw that the second gym was a fighting-type gym, so that meant...
47
Fighting...
48
Type...
49
Weakness...
50
It was RE2's time to shine!
51
He's like, actually a higher level.
52
I didn't like that.
53
I didn't like that.
54
He's too high of a level.
55
Despite being a lower level, we decided to wing it and managed to defeat everyone's Pokemon, only having to tap out at Brawly's Makahuita, which Kidmup mopped the floor with.
56
Hey, when did you start walking on two legs, Kidmup?
57
The next HM we learn is this terrible move, Flash.
58
The only thing Flash is good for is lighting up a dark cave
59
that technically isn't even required to progress through the game if you know where you're going.
60
I however, do not.
61
Currently, Goat is the only one on the team who can learn Flash.
62
But I'm like 80% sure once a Pokemon learns an HM move, they can't unlearn it.
63
So I really don't want to teach this S-tier Pokemon an unforgettable F-tier move.
64
Oh boy, an Abra!
65
I bet he can learn Flash!
66
Oh boy, a Zubat!
67
Okay, I'm kind of fudging the rules here.
68
This Zubat wasn't technically the first Pokemon I saw on this route,
69
but does it even count as an encounter if all you do is look at a Pokemon and then they teleport away?
70
Excuse me?
71
Look, I just need this useless Pokemon to learn this unrequired move.
72
Zubat, I'm calling you Mr. Flash and immediately teaching you...
73
No!
74
Goat, you can learn Flash.
75
YAY!
76
After clearing out Team Magma from a museum, we were ready to take on Watson, the electric-type gym leader.
77
Luckily, we picked the water-ground starter, so...
78
Kidmup, do your thing!
79
Now what?
80
Do I go here?
81
Here?
82
How did I get here?
83
During my wandering, both the Pokemon I named after pets evolved into bigger versions of themselves, And Goat learned headbutt.
84
Can I get rid of Flash?
85
NOOOOO!
86
Hey lady, I'm kinda lost, so I'm...
87
entering random houses and asking NPCs where I should go.
88
Oh, you have harbor mail?
89
I'll trade you that for my coin case!
90
Coin case?
91
You know, for gambling?
92
GAMBLING?!
93
Listen, I don't have a problem.
94
The reason I'm this excited...
95
Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
96
It's because one of the prizes you can win at the casino is a Pokemon.
97
A Pokemon that may help me build the perfect team.
98
So before I checked what the prizes actually were, I bought 500 coins for a measly 10,000 Poke Dollars.
99
Just TMs?
100
Just dolls?
101
I just wasted a lot of money, didn't I?
102
Good news though, Goat evolved into his perfect form and learned Mach Punch.
103
Right, right.
104
Eventually, I talked to the right NPC, taught Igzy Rock Smash, and while exploring a fiery path, I caught my first fire-type Pokémon, Oh, oh, okay, okay, okay,
105
okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, Noomol.
106
Let's go, man.
107
Even though Noomols can be found in the desert, have a big hump on their back, and evolve into something called Camerupt,
108
for some reason, I never looked at this Pokemon and thought Camel.
109
I always thought Fire Cow.
110
So that's why I named her Cooked Beef.
111
Then on Route 114, we encountered a Zangoose.
112
I have no clue what this Pokemon does, but it looks way cooler than all the Odishes and tiny birds I kept running into, so it had to be awesome!
113
Cooked Beef!
114
The nine levels you have on this goose are more than enough to weaken it.
115
Hit him with an ev- Okay.
116
Oh, please don't.
117
OOOH!
118
Kicked beef!
119
So, my only fire type died to a quick attack that did 50 damage.
120
Zangoose, or should I say, Beef Eater, you can join the team for now, but just know, we could have killed you at any point.
121
It was a challenge not to kill you.
122
We headed up a mountain and fought Maxi, the leader of Team Magma, who had his own floof Pokemon, which Goat took care of, and he had his own evolved cooked beef.
123
Hmm, I sure wish I had one of those on the team!
124
Hey, Beef Eater, why don't you make yourself useful and fight that Crobat?
125
Okay, that's kinda cool.
126
As we headed down the mountain, who did I encounter but- Who's the new Pokemon?
127
Another Pneumo.
128
Immediately, I abandoned Beefeater to make room for...
129
Return of King.
130
Before we take on Gym Number 4, I think I figured out a way to get Goat to forget the move Flash
131
without having to beat him over the head with a 2x4.
132
A little Pidgey told me that Goat was about to learn a new move at his next level.
133
So, by placing him in the Pokemon Daycare and doing some light cardio outside, he'll level up, learn the new move, and forget Flash.
134
And my plan worked like a charm.
135
It really sucks that this is the only way to get Pokemon to forget an HM move.
136
You'd think they'd have some, I don't know, a move-deleter NPC or something?
137
Oh my gosh.
138
Now you'd think that since I picked the water starter, that the fire type gym wouldn't be an issue. But it was.
139
Floof and I quickly learned why biting lava was a bad idea.
140
Okay!
141
Thankfully Kidmup, who I don't know why I didn't send out first, took out both of Flannery's Slugmas with no issue.
142
But then she sent out Torkoal.
143
Even though Kidmup was using a super effective move, he only did this much damage.
144
Meanwhile, Torkel's body slams were doing this much damage.
145
And paralyzing us!
146
Okay, um, goat?
147
I know you're the goat, but you understand why you can't fight a fire turtle, right?
148
RE2, looks like you're up.
149
Finish her off with a steal- Ah!
150
DUDE!
151
RE2!
152
NO!
153
What do we do?
154
What do we do?
155
are great choices.
156
What I really need is a turn to heal up Kidmup, but...
157
Hey, Igzy.
158
Are you aware of the concept...
159
taking one for the team?
160
Given the dire circumstances, this felt like the best choice.
161
Sorry, Igzy.
162
With Kidmup healed, we managed to get Torkoal's health really low, but then Kidmup refused to finish the fight because he was,
163
in his words, Immobilized by love.
164
Kidmup!
165
I know you're letting this turtle body slam you on purpose, and you're sick for it!
166
Do you really think we have a future together?
167
Okay, Goat, I know this is a fire turtle, but she's mostly using body slams.
168
Could you please punch this turtle's head off without falling in love?
169
We earned our fourth gym badge, but it wasn't without some casualties.
170
RE2 and Igzi, we wouldn't have made it this far without you.
171
Thanks for everything.
172
We traveled into a sandstorm where I picked up two Pokémon, this fossil, and this weird Pokémon I've never seen before, Baltoy.
173
Alright King, my second chance at a fire type.
174
I know this isn't your natural habitat, but why don't we train here in the desert for a bit?
175
Moo!
176
Oh, you found a Baltoy!
177
I just caught one of those!
178
I'm not sure what its moves are though.
179
What, nuts!
180
God!
181
Okay, team!
182
I know everyone is upset this...
183
thing shares a species with the Pokemon who blew up King, but it possesses psychic abilities that I believe could be very useful.
184
So, please everyone give a warm welcome to King Eater!
185
No one step on it.
186
We headed back to Petalburg City and faced gym number five, my dad.
187
Also, I brought Odd1ish just in case we had another Iggy type situation.
188
Am I an integral member of the team?
189
You sure are, bud.
190
Despite a few close calls... Who?
191
Dude!
192
Dude!
193
Finish him off.
194
Nooo!
195
Everyone, including Odd1ish, made it out alive.
196
Oh my god!
197
Good thing we have free healthcare!
198
I don't know WHAT I'd do if someone took away my free healthcare!
199
Not right now, goat.
200
Across the water on Route 118, I caught Picklechoo the Electrike.
201
Great.
202
I don't know, he's electric like Pikachu, and his head kinda looks like Pickles, so...
203
Whatever, having an Electric-type on the team is huge.
204
After inspecting all the Pokemon I had, I figured Mr. Flash's flying poison moves could be useful.
205
So I evolved him into Golbat and then- Here you go, daycare lady!
206
Alright, my favorite Pokemon!
207
Who wants some ice cream?
208
Gosh, I love you guys!
209
I couldn't ask for a better team right here!
210
At Fortree City, we were ready to take on Winona, the Flying-type Gym Leader.
211
Wait, this, uh, weird lizard's blocking our path.
212
Kidmup, can you- Oh, cool, you're back on four legs again.
213
Also, Picklechew, why are you blue?
214
The only thing that stood between me and Winona was this incredibly hard two-piece puzzle.
215
Hmm...
216
How do I get through this?
217
Oh.
218
Figured out.
219
Picklechew was able to spark Winona's Swellow, and Kidmup, through sheer willpower, tanked all of Alteria's earthquakes, narrowly avoiding death by eight hit points.
220
Good work, Kidmup!
221
Picklechew, you know what to do.
222
I found a TM for Ice Beam on an abandoned ship and… King Eater, you can learn Ice Beam?
223
I'm sorry it's taken me this long to realize how awesome of a Pokemon you are.
224
You know King Eater, with you on the team, I think we'll be okay without a Fire Type.
225
I entered Lilycove City and my rival wanted a rematch.
226
Kidmuff knocked out her Swellow no problem, but then she sent out Grovile.
227
Ooh, I know the perfect matchup for this.
228
King Eater, why don't you show this Grass-type that new move you learned?
229
Dude!
230
D'ah!
231
Are you gonna use a Hyper Potion?
232
No!
233
I can't believe I got that upset at losing a Pokémon that before this challenge, I had never even considered playing with.
234
If any members of the Claydol Lover community are watching...
235
I'm sorry, I didn't know we hated grass.
236
Alright team, we're not fighting any more gyms until each one of you is in peak physical shape.
237
Floof!
238
Why haven't you evolved into Hondoom yet?
239
What about this fossil?
240
Is this fossil any good?
241
Mmm...
242
We picked the plant one.
243
We got the plant.
244
What about Mr. Flash?
245
Has anyone seen Mr. Flash?
246
Why hasn't that loser evolved yet?!
247
Hey, buddy... So listen...
248
We're friends, right?
249
You know, Goat had to stay in the daycare once.
250
Yeah, yeah, it was to forget the move...
251
Flash.
252
Look, Mr. Flash, I know I technically shouldn't have even caught you, and I named you after a garbage move I thought you could learn,
253
but I want you to evolve so you can be the best version of you on the team!
254
Don't you want to join the team?!
255
I have this soothing bell you can hold on to.
256
Welcome to the team, Mr. Flash.
257
With the team stronger than ever, I surfed my way to an island that had a Pokemon graveyard inside a tall building, and for the first time ever,
258
I could actually grieve with the other trainers.
259
That was a great battle, dude.
260
Yeah, it was.
261
Here's some money.
262
So, Kidmup was holding an amulet coin, so you actually owe me 600.
263
We defeated more Team Magma grunts at the top of the tower, and on our way down, I caught what I thought was going to be a super awesome Pokemon, but turned out to be a little disappointing.
264
Let's go!
265
My third chance at a Fire-type, my son, the Vulpix.
266
Which I immediately evolved into Ninetales.
267
Why was she a disappointment?
268
I don't know.
269
You'd think a Fire-type would have no problems defeating a Gloom. But alas.
270
I'm not saying Ninetales is a lame Pokemon.
271
I'm saying mine specifically was.
272
Floof and Kidmup easily cleared the Psychic Gym with Shadow Ball and Surf,
273
and with that we just have one more gym before we- Is the sun on fire?!
274
So I haven't really been paying attention to the story, and now the legendary Pokemon Groudon is angry.
275
And as much as I would've liked to have Groudon on the team, I never found the master So we're not risking it.
276
Oh hey Wallace!
277
Oh you're the water type gym leader?
278
Oh I hope my fighting grass Pokemon will be okay.
279
No, you don't have to fight the Sealeo.
280
I'll get Floof to do that.
281
And with our 8th gym badge, we could finally travel through Victory Road and face the Elite Four.
282
Aren't you forgetting something?
283
Oh...
284
I don't know how you want me to respond to that.
285
This is it.
286
Our final challenge.
287
Each one of you has trained very hard, and as a reward, you'll each be receiving...
288
a piece of candy.
289
You get a candy?
290
You get a candy.
291
You get a candy.
292
You get a candy.
293
You get a candy.
294
And.. you get a candy.
295
This is it.
296
This is gamer moment to the max.
297
Kidmup and Goat were able to finish off Sydney's Pokemon with their water, ice, and fighting moves, and my two dogs, Picklechew and Floof, crunched and bit all of Phoebe's ghost Pokemon.
298
Picklechew might be cursed though.
299
Against Glacia, my son finally stopped being a disappointment and fire blasted her Glalie.
300
Then I tried to get Goat to drain her Sealeo, forgetting he didn't like Ice.
301
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
302
Ice and birds, those are his two big no-no's.
303
Luckily, Kidmup was able to earthquake the rest of her Pokémon.
304
Now it was time for the fourth member of the Elite Four, Drake.
305
His Alteria was defeated by Kidmup and Floof, but they both took some damage.
306
Against his Flygon, I sent out my son.
307
Okay, what about Fireblast?
308
You're green.
309
AHH!
310
Then Flygon dug a hole in the ground, but by the time he came up, Mr. Flash was waiting for him and took him out with a fly.
311
For Drake's next Flygon, I sent out Goat.
312
I don't think.. he doesn't like birds, and Flygon's a dragon?
313
Yeah, Flygon wasn't a bird, but I forgot a very important aspect about dragons.
314
Give him a dynamic punch.
315
Nope, okay.
316
Oh no!
317
Oh he knows flamethrower.
318
Fire and poison, those are his other two no-no's.
319
Instead, Floof and Picklechew crunched Flygon's head off, and then I used Kidmup's last blizzard on Salamence.
320
Okay, I'm gonna need this blizzard to hit.
321
Please?
322
Yes!
323
Yes!
324
Yes!
325
We had done it.
326
Oh my goodness!
327
We had cleared four champions with some very close calls, but we are all still alive.
328
Now it was time to face the fifth member of the Elite Four.
329
What, you didn't know about the secret fifth boss that's in every Pokemon game?
330
We had one more challenger.
331
Steven.
332
Steven sent out a Skarmory, which was the perfect lightning rod for Picklechew, then Kidmup took out Aggron with Surf, and my son defeated Cradle-E with Irontail.
333
Then Steven sent out a Metagross, and things got messy.
334
I thought Kidmup Surf would be super effective against this rock with legs.
335
Turns out it wasn't.
336
Pfft.
337
Okay, here's what I'm gonna do.
338
I have an idea.
339
I have an idea.
340
Kidmup, if you can last another hit, that would be amazing.
341
Oh, Hyper Beam!
342
Kidmup, my starter Pokémon, had been taken out.
343
At least he got Metagross's health low enough that Floof could easily finish them off.
344
That's it!
345
Then Steven sent out his own King Eater, which I knew from personal experience they hated getting crunched.
346
I know this Pokemon.
347
He hates getting crunched.
348
I don't care about your special defense.
349
You're getting crunched!
350
It's probably because his special defense went up!
351
Floof eventually took down Claydol, even though Steven used a full restore on it three separate times. Of course!
352
Of course you are!
353
STOP IT!
354
Which I get, man.
355
I'm part of the Klaedal Lover community, too.
356
Next was the last Pokémon we needed to defeat.
357
Armaldo.
358
One hit from its ancient power, badly injured Floof.
359
So for this final fight, I sent Goat to finish him off.
360
Goat, because he's so awesome, poisoned Armaldo just by standing next to him, and then promptly sky-uppercutted him straight in the jaw, just barely knocking him out.
361
Armaldo was clinging onto life when the unthinkable happened.
362
Armaldo knew a bird move.
363
NOOOOO!
364
NOOOOO!
365
NOOOOO!
366
Goat had made it so far into our journey, only to faint inches away from the finish line.
367
I could have sent out a level 5 Zigzagoon
368
and still would have won because Armaldo died to poison on the very next turn.
369
The poison's gonna finish it off!
370
Right?
371
I didn't even have to- No!
372
No!
373
Not GOAT!
374
By all accounts, GOAT had defeated Armaldo, but- But he didn't make it!
375
And neither did Kidmup!
376
That was my starter and my favorite Pokemon!
377
No!
378
No!
379
I don't want this trophy!
380
I want Goat and Tin Moth!
381
Colleagues, friends, Wall-E, we gather together to honor two of the bravest Pokemon I know.
382
One of them from the humble town of Little Root, and the other from a patch of grass in Petalburg Woods.
383
Together, they faced gyms, rivals, and a plethora of wild Pokemon.
384
And when the final challenge came, they didn't back down.
385
This sucks!
386
I hated that!
387
And that's how my first Nuzlocke went.
388
Dude!
389
Dude!
390
Dude!
391
Drew Wumpels, dude.
392
Dude, dude.
393
Dude!
394
Dude!
395
Dude!
396
Dude!
397
Dude!
398
Dude!
399
Nothing, dude.
400
Dude!
401
Oh, dude!
402
Stop falling in love!
403
No!
404
That title's so bad, dude!
405
Fy is lava, dude.
406
Go give him a chance to recover, dude!
407
Dude!
408
Dude!
409
Dude!
410
Dude?
411
Dude, stop it.
412
Mash their skull in, dude.
413
Mmm, that was my psychic ice type, dude.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
