This video changed my life, since watching my bench has increased by 100 pounds, I can squat 5 plates, and got married

Also i wanted to drop a hot tip for the eventual guide for the dreaded Fantina battle.

If you can actually manage to keep your Eevee unevolved until then, you can actually abuse its early access to Baton Pass and RP's early access to pinch berries.

If you can get Eevee to come in into Banette (or, after some PP stalling, Dusclops, who should usually come before Banette), you can use Substitute to knock you into Pinch Berry range and Baton Pass it to a sweeper. These two Pokemon can only directly damage you with Ghost Moves, or Sucker Punch, so a Normal-type Baton Passer like Eevee can be really strong here.

This kinda requires you to ensure you KO the lead Drifblim with something that will never bait Gengar or Mismagius, and especially not let the Driftblim do its own BP start, which is a whole other problem... but it can be useful if you don't want to commit to Umbreon strats.

My favorite part of the video was the Distortion World footage. Wow. 10/10 gameplay.

Really good vid! Very nice job with the editing & pacing, and of course the info is super helpful. Looking forward to seeing more in the future!

[nuclearwinter_]

WOOO DISCLAIM :DD its just awesome as i thought it'd be

[ThePanekon]

The repel manips helped me out a ton! Since Im playing on set mode an explination of the switchin AI would be amazing. Keep up the greate work!

[zolopolo]

Good work on your video! With how high quality it was I was expecting you to be way more popular, definitely earned my sub!

[pokiday]

I can finally play Renegade Platinum and not wipe before Roark. Dreams really do come true.

All jokes aside, I know this took so much time and I'm super excited to finally see the end result + all the future videos. :D

[Maximmmino]

Literally just did bag to Roark deathless because of this thank you so much

[pharosneptune]

Excuse me Streamer Man, I love this video.

[Stephin_Sunny]

Discum you are absolutely popping off right now

[kaylamaher]

Excellent video! I had no idea this was even a thing!

[disantsant]

I was hard stuck on Roark fr the past few months until i saw your video. Thank you so much

[shadowocelot-_]

I haven't made it past the 5-minutes in, and I recognize your editing is incredible. I genuinely thought you had 10k or more subscribers, not under 700. I just got Renegade on my 3ds, so this guide will be helpful!

[nobelx]

Dude this is literally gonna save me when I start my Ren Plat run. Thank you for making it homie!

[aidankeogh]

Having Torterra was pretty miserable in lategame since I swear about 8 out of every 10 Pokemon you'd fight had an Ice-type move for coverage.

[maverick]

From someone who absolutely broke this game... Gliscor. Gliscor with poison heal pretty much wins you a casual run and can still be a carry for nuzlocke. My recommended moveset is this

Earthquake is obviously a must
Fly has 100 BP so you get a flying type earthquake that gives you a free heal
Sword Dance for setup, of course
Substitute

Any trainer that doesn't lead with water or ice type moves is free with this setup. It came up to a point where I just annihilated every boss battle and got bored of the game. Imagine getting bored of a Drayano hack because it was too easy.

[GongasVODS]

I beat the game deathless because of this thank you disclaim you're the goat

[WhiteMexicanArmadilloLord]

Maybe one day I’ll give this rom hack a try, but probably a more casual playthrough and once I’ve got done with my Pokémon Wilds fix. Anyways, good work man! You definitely put a lot of time and effort not just in this video, but playing Renegade Platinum as you streamed this game more times that I can count.

Just in time for my Ren Plat egglocke. I am saved
