Let's not beat around the bush - Bug types are known as one of the worst types in Pokemon History... but in Pokemon X and Y there's a good variety and some really unique ones to find as potential party members. Can we make the best of what we've got and use them to beat Pokemon Y's hardest 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 Y 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.

Silph could you please do a final segment where you decide which Pokémon was the MVP of the run? I think it would be really cool to hear your opinions and who you thought really carried the team the most, most of all i love your videos! they’ve gotten me to start nuzlocking myself, and truly making play throughs amazing for me again 🙏🏻 (you wanted me to remind you 😂😂)

What I loved most about X and Y is that they didn't create too many new mons, so they just brought in pretty much every other one, making almost any replay to be completely unique. Like you can get three dragon types before the second gym, how cool

@Locormus2 3 күн бұрын

@@rainbowyoshi9894 Possibly more if you don't care abojt grinding some more: From the top of my head: Druddigon (cave before you hit the coastal area), Bagon (cliff on coast) and I guess Kingdra, Dragalge or even Altaria if you catch and evolve Horsea, Skrelp and/or Swablu? Been a while! Swablu and Druddigon were wrong. It's Axew at the location I thought Druddigon was and Swablu is on the otherside of VictoryRoad's gate.. There's also Tyrunt you can get? My bad, you need the Good Rod for Horsea and Skrelp. Conclusion: Axew, Bagon and Tyrunt before gym 2.

Fun fact, there was a tournament with all of the gym leaders, rivals, main antagonists, and champions. There was something over 1000 trainers in it and Viola made it towards the top 8 and Roxanne got second to Cynthia who beat Steven Stone to 3rd. So yeah, it’s surprising but bug types have started to really start to get good.

@ghetis396 Жыл бұрын

6:55 I personally make an addendum to my runs that if I get a Pokemon that only evolves as a certain gender (Combee, Salazzle, etc), I can reroll it until I get one that's able to evolve. Getting an encounter that's only good 1/8 of the time just isn't fun

@sylokthedefiled7650 Жыл бұрын

I think introducing an "evo clause" could be a good idea. "If an encounter cannot evolve, you may reroll until you get a version of it that can" Basically. If you get a combee as an encounter, and it's male, you can reroll until you get a female combee. I see a lot of big runs but almost none of them use vespiqueen so I think it would be neat to see some less used Pokemon be used.
