Dragons are known to be among the strongest Pokemon out there... but can they beat Pokemon Emerald's greatest challenge?!
We've done some hard Pokemon challenges in the past, but usually they were a solo Pokemon challenge run. What if we still did a really difficult challenge... but with a full team using hardcore nuzlocke rules, and with only one type? Today we find out: can I beat a Pokemon Emerald Hardcore Nuzlocke with only Dragon types? No items and no overleveling!

Monotype Hardcore Nuzlocke Ruleset:
(1) If a Pokémon faints, it must be permanently boxed or released.
(2) Only the first type-specific Pokémon encountered in each Route/Area can be caught.
(3) No Legendaries/Mythicals, duplicates, or same-evolution-line Pokémon can be caught or used. If a duplicate is encountered, the next unique type-specific Pokémon encounter can be caught.
(4) Additional Pokémon may be caught for the purpose of HM use, but these may not be used in battle at any time during the run.
(5) No Items can be used in battle (Held Items are allowed).
(6) Party Pokémon levels are limited to the highest level Pokémon of the next Gym Leader or Elite 4 Member. So long as your Pokémon are at or below the level cap when the Gym Leader/Elite 4 Member battle starts, they can level up mid-battle.
(7) "Set" Battle Mode must be used at all times.
(8) No connecting with other games for the purposes of importing Pokémon, Items, etc.

Just finished your rock type heart gold, and was about halfway through your psychic soul silver play through. You’ve really reinvigorated my love for playing through games with mono type teams. Always felt like you were evening the odds with the gym leaders and elite four by playing with one type, and it just adds to the immersion IMO making you feel like an actual trainer in the world. Rather than just running around with a generic god squad

Starting with a level 5 dratini is worse than just using a regular starter till you can catch a dragon legit. Dratini vs Roxanne is pain

@shirox11 2 года назад

Dratini is pretty meh til dragonair. That’s the things with dragons. They start out slow, but get pretty significant boosts in power once they hit there first evo and then are incredibly powerful once fully evolved. (For dragons that have 3 forms anyway)

@Astromontana 2 года назад

Ok, this is what I love about your nuzlockes. You actually show the whole footage even if you lose at the end. That makes it a lot more entertaining imo because you literally don't know if you'll beat the challenge or not until the end, unlike a lot of nuzlockers who only show their wins which gets boring imo because you know they'll beat it so there's no suspense when it comes to deaths. Can't wait for the next one!

Aggron and Haxorus aren't psuedos. The psuedolegendaries are Dragonite, Tyranitar, Salamence, Metagross, Garchomp, Hydreigon, Goodra, Kommo-o, and Dragapult. 7 dragons, a steel, and a rock.

Love the little background story for having your starter. I'm on Wulfric on a dark only run of Y, and I don't have X, so no Houndoom. However my old roommate traded me a shiny houndoom on my AS game like 12 years ago, so I bred it, traded it over and damn! It AND my Froakie had a modest nature off the bat.

@embryhart539 2 года назад

Silph, this was such a fun run! :D What a challenge! Kudos to you for having the persistence to continue on with so few resources available to you.

I had no idea you could fight your rival in front of Mr.Briney's house. Even weirder I just found out that specifically May (and not Brendan) will have a Torkoal in this second battle but replaces it for Slugma immediately after. Brendan on the other hand has a Slugma the whole time. I definitely think this is an oversight.
