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 White Hardcore Nuzlocke with only Bug 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.

@ParasaurolophusZ Год назад

I remember using Galvantula way back in the day when I first played Gen5. It has a surprising amount of options, too. Electro Web for the speed control, Volt Switch for clean switches, Electro Ball for higher damage since it has such good speed, and Thunder with pretty decent accuracy if you have Compound Eyes.

@AnitaNapkin96 Год назад

Gen 5 did bug types so good 💚

@phantom4765 Год назад

Ngl you got really lucky against that zebsrika, I did the calc and with max attack IVs and EVs you only had a 50%chance to kill from that range with leavanny and the IVs being max is extremely unlikely so the odds are actually lower. In the vid you do say you kill with a swarm boosted bug bite, but when you caught it you said and showed it had chlorophyll so there was no swarm boost to help, just a really luck roll preventing a wipe. The zebsrika also got the lowest roll possible for the flame charge as well so that luck is insane

@tmcpr Год назад

Hey Silph, love the content and always look forward to seeing the next nuzlocke run go up! Just a quick question though, have you thought about doing any more of the true power series for some of the newer gen characters, I know some of them don't have quite as deep canon reach as the others did with their inclusions in multiple games/settings and across the anime/manga etc but I really enjoyed those videos and the true power tournaments too! Keep up the great work and thanks for all the effort you put in to the videos!

@ThomazSDA Год назад

I absolutely love the Bugs in this generation. They are so much fun to use! Great run as always! I wonder though, because I didn't see it, but did Sheriff have Compoundeyes? If it did, that 100% accuracy Thunder is looking mighty fine (with a Wide Lens equipped). And 100% acc Charge Beam is also very cool (but I see why both Electroweb and Volt Switch are great too).

Depending on the game it's done in the challenge can be anything from nonexistent due to the type and coverage diversity to maybe easy difficulty. While most Eeveelutions aren't competitive level they definitely aren't slackers(apart from Flareon who was practically useless for a while as it had practically no access to physical moves and its special attack stat is mediocre at best)

Nice run! Will you be getting back to the True Power Tournament? Would love to see those battles now that BDSP has been out awhile!

@TheBT Год назад

It makes sense that Snorlax has low defense. Defense is basically the 'How effective the average punch is against me'. If you have a lot of armour, the average blow will not do much. However when you're really small, or agile the average punch will not be effective as you move out of the way only getting a glancing blow (or missing entirely) as evasion doesn't really work that way, the chances of missing a blissey is the same as missing a pidgey, the defense stat also covers that dexterity side of things. Whilst this isn't consistent (Pheramosa looks like it would be tough to land a good blow) I do think it's a bit easier to land a good punch on a Snorlax then a Sewaddle, even if you have to land a lot of them (HP is the how much punishment you can take)
