Robert Moran, aka Brucewillakers , aka Rurikar22 , aka Oldmanwillakers , is probably my favorite guy on Youtube. He is insanely clever, funny, and completely dedicated to making things entertaining. He has done a series of pokemon Nuzlocke, mostly in a rom hack version of Pokemon Black called "Blaze Black." During these Nuzlockes, he named the pokemon after viewers and would often give them entertaining personalities. These are some of my favorite characters he created from the series.



On the left is "Rhedmonkey" the Corsola (pronounced "reed-monkey"). She is known ironically as "The independent woman who don't need no man," but she was actually bratty, demanding, and not strong in battle (Rob mostly used her for HM strength). That's why I gave her the look of a bratty heiress who hasn't gotten her way.



Next is "Morgan" the Maractus. He was one of Rob's "Aces," which was the pokemon on the team who could be relied on the most to survive hits and deal damage when it's needed the most. Morgan's greatest feat was carrying Rob's team through the fight with N in Chargestone cave which, in Blaze Black, consists of 6 Rotoms with the ability "Levitate," which makes them immune to one of their only weaknesses (ground-types). He met his end in the flying gym, which was filled with pokemon he was weak to as a plant type



Third is "Sardingz" the Seaking, who got her start as a low level Goldeen, and one of two pokemon left in Rob's party after the Bug gym in his third run. "TommyK" or "TommyGun" the Swoobat, the then Ace and only survivor of the team who fought the Bug gym, took her under his wing and taught her to fight. When TommyK fell, She took up the mantle of Ace, her Soothe Bell the symbol of her dedication to the team, becoming one of the greatest Aces of the series (imo). She almost single handedly beat the Electric gym, despite being a water type by virtue of her ability "Lightning Rod" which made her her immune to electric attacks. She had revived the run, helping to capture many pokemon until a Ferrothorn in Chargestone cave struck her down, and the run died with her, as there were no remaining pokemon strong enough to take on N and his 6 Rotoms.



Last but most definitely not least is "Bipen" the Ampharos (and he was very nearly named after me, in fact, but alas, it was not to be). Bipen was much beloved for his goofy, derpy personality and his insistence that he was a dragon because he knew dragon pulse (this was before Gen 6 was even announced, which made Mega Ampharos a dragon type). He was also a very powerful pokemon, able to use the move "Cotton Guard" to drastically increase his defence, and able to deal massive amounts of damage with moves like Thunderbolt and Dragon pulse (Ampharos have the highest special attack stat of any non-legendary electric pokemon). He also often wore the "Rocky Helmet" because of his derpy-ness, but he was able to put it to good use, his high defence allowing him to take many hits and return the damage to his attacker. He was assassinated by a Crustle with "Sturdy" and "X-Scissor" in a post-Elite Four battle with a disguised gym leader (because those are a thing in Blaze Black). 'Twas a tragedy, but his legacy lives on as one of the best, cutest, derpiest Pokemon from Rob's Nuzlockes.





Another wall of text, but this is another thing I am passionate about. I love the content Rob makes, and right now he is part of a group called the "Buffalo Wizards" (a reference a Tauros and Bouffalant from another of Rob's runs). I highly recommend checking them out. I had a lot of fun making this, so I'm probably going to make more soon

Also, looking at it now, Sardingz looks metal as fuck, which was untintentional, but works just fine, lol
