Jan Krüger / Pokémon Challenges / pchaltv - Supreme Gamer, "the best Nuzlocker in the world", self-diagnosed bipolar brony, defender of e-thots, arrogant wannabe mastermind

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
he's rebranding from "pokemon challenges" to just "pchal"
I would bet money that he's done that before. He went back because it didn't work that well?

Jan was (is?) studying traffic engineering, or something similar. He always knew this has no real future as a job, it will get replaced by robots/computers. He was doing long streams for some years, I don't remember him having any skills besides Pokémon and English.

It was a nice background noise stream. I haven't watched him in forever, though, so this is a fun thread. He used to be pretty good friends with his mods (and some regulars). They used to put clips in r/LivestreamFail to make him popular and such. I wouldn't dare bother with his Discord, due to how many kids and libtards are in there, but he (and/or his community) do make (or used to, anyway) documentation about Pokémon hacks he plays.
 
I always got the impression that a lot of the stuff he says and does is kayfabe. Or, at least, he's operating on Pro Wrestling rules, and he's a heel. "Best nuzlocker in the world" is something a wrestler would say, and there's not really any point in acknowledging a much smaller streamer. He was overjoyed to be the rival in some of the other big streamer's videos before they had publicly acknowledged him, which seems like a reaction you'd expect out of an aspiring heel more than someone who's easily offended. He also played into the heel persona by embracing the tactic of intentionally sacrificing Pokemon and playing it up as if it was villainous behavior, quoting Pokemon villain dialogue like "pokemon are tools."

It seems like, to me, he's a mildly autistic guy who's made a persona by turning up his personality to 11 (like a wrestler) and intentionally antagonizes/annoys larger YouTubers in order to prevoke a reaction and get cross viewership. If a smaller YouTuber is better at nuzlocking and announces it, it's like breaking his kayfabe.

As for Clover, it's probably illegal in Germany, and even if it weren't he can't use the rare candy cheat in it because it has built in anti cheat, but he gets free points on Twitter for complaining about racism so that's what he does. Plus he can justify banning anyone who wants him to play it without having to explain German law or how boring his stream would be if he had to grind.
 
Wasn't the whole point of Nuzlockes supposed to be about actually trying to stay attached to the Pokemon you caught even if they were garbage? I caught one of this tool's videos and it looks like it just turned into some kind of spreadsheet horseshit and endless resetting to get the perfect starter. If this autist thinks he popularized Nuzlockes (he didn't, but whatever) by turning them into this autistic minmax horseshit, he's a moron because it looks like he's kinda ruining the whole concept.
Also, he's a massive faggot for hating on Pokemon Clover. That game had good enough writing with the jokes, mons, and story to actually allow me to git gud.

He most certainly didn't. The comics created to tell the story of Nuzlockes is what popularized it. Jan is just the last symptom in the life cycle of something getting more popular than it ought to be.

There are a lot of pictures featuring those two together but only one with Jan.
Maybe this was the cause for his sudden change in mentality last year.

Nice of him to take his girlfriend and her boyfriend out for dinner.
