But Dr. HG, steel types are incredible. Surely a monolocke would be an absolute walk in the park, right?

Looked like a walk in the park to me. If he'd got a Bronzong with Levitate he would've strolled the entire game and even then it was pretty easy.

@simon3662 11 ай бұрын

I've done this challenge and honestly Heatproof is more useful than Levitate. Being able to stall Cyrus' Houndoom PPs and surviving an Overheat from Flint's Flareon without risking a crit to set-up Rain Dance and Trick Room(with an enormous amount of HP and spdef investment i have to say) was definitely more worth since Lucario demolished every Earthquake user with Reversal strats

Interesting Hardcore Nuzlocke Challenge: Use a number generator and fill in the amount of pokemon for that region, such as Kanto having 151 pokemon, but exclude legendaries and mythicals. Roll the number generator 6 times and those pokemon and their evolution lines are the only pokemon you can use the entire run (you can use HM slaves). If you get a pokemon that has 2 evolution lines, such as wurmple, you can choose either evolution line. Hardcore Nuzlocke rules applied. Good luck!

Absolutely loved the Ocean’s 11 naming theme, it’s one of my fav franchises! It was awesome watching this vid and seeing the Steel types shine in the different Operations. Did you have a plan for the names or did you randomly assign the characters to a Pokémon? Also, I think it’s baffling that Empoleon is still the *only* Water/Steel type Pokémon after we’ve officially hit over 1000 for the Pokédex. We need at least two more lines to get the paired typing that aren’t starters to allow us to use it more!

Well that was an insane elite four. It's a good showcase that sometimes even with such a great typing a monotype nuzocke can still be quite challenging. Anyway once again I will recommend a no stab moves / bluntmons run of Black / White. I'll recommend adding an extra rule that you have to fight all optional trainers before each level cap, which is what I did and I think it makes it more interesting.
