Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are here... but can we beat their ULTIMATE CHALLENGE!? Pokemon Diamond and Pearl were some of my favorite games, and now that the remakes have released I'm excited! But might they be an even harder challenge for a hardcore nuzlocke? Let's find out!
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 Shining Pearl Hardcore Nuzlocke with only Steel 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 trading/importing Pokémon, Items, etc.

Can you do pokemon emerald as ruby from the manga?
Dog those shirts look nice af, defo getting a few plain tees n that tiger one 🔥🔥
Are you going to do a true power for Sinnoh
Remember your friend, Delilah? You know, that Kricketot you never let evolve? I might sound like a madman here, but how bout you do a Kricketot only run of the Remakes, but instead with a full team of 6 Kricketots?
(love the vids, but I wanna see those single pokemon challenge runs come back)
U think u can do a remake version of attempting to beat the game with kricketot
Pulled from Bulbapedia: "According to Elm's research, over 90% of all Pokémon are connected to at least one other through Evolution. (Currently, the actual percentage is 81%.)"
HA, TAKE THAT DAWN!!
@@SilphSpectre Really this is Professor Elm's fault.
Is it possible that elms research was dated and did not include Pokémon we did not yet know about?
@@SilphSpectre curious what the stats were back in Gen 4
@@tolkienblack I was pretty sure this was the case, since there were very few pokemon by gen 2 that didn't evolve outside of legendaries. Then I ran the numbers.
Doing a bit of math, Elm is still wrong. Even excluding legendary pokemon from the equation, about 10.4% of the pokedex consists of nonevolving Pokemon. Meaning the amount of pokemon that DO evolve is actually something like 89.6% at the time of Generation 2.
EDIT: Whoa I was way wrong and actually forgot pokemon that don't evolve. Revised numbers are
13.3% of mons don't evolve meaning 86.7% of nonlegendary pokemon are a part of an evolutionary line.
Silph: *Gets a modest magnemite and an adamant shieldon*
Me: *Cries in the corner with my jolly abra*
Im with u ;)
Me crying with carful nature Frosthmoth
Oof
Bro, elemental punches alakazam?
@@ganjafi59 actually that was viable in gen 2 I used one on my team with all elemental puches was fun
Never expected a wormadam and a bronzong of all things to be the mvps of your team, but considering their types it makes some sense
yea bug steel is a super good type combo and that and quiver dance really makes up for wormadam’s mediocre base stats, and bronzong is really good anyway
Bronzong is great.
I shouldnt see comment before finishing the video. I spoiled myself bruh
It's so nice to see underrated mons be so valued! My own trash wormadam had HP ice and with some item strats, she took out Cynthia's garachomp!
True
Silph on Sunday is the best way to end the week
Swear to god
Best way to start one actually

@@rajeshbalaji8909 Big Poggers in chat.
@@b_v1bxz came here to say this.
I'd really like to see an Ice-type run, but those kinds of Pokemon are usually found fairly late and a run really isn't viable. Maybe it would be possible to use the Dream Radar thing like you did in the Dragon-type run of Black 2?
The only early location is the underground, but idk if it counts as one big area or many small areas
swsh is a perfect game for an ice run
@@glam4663 the thing people seem to do is one encounter per gym
@@noathern Ive rarely seen that rule of one per gym, I see more that's one per route
@@glam4663 one underground visit per gym I mean
Steel and dark types have quickly becoming some of my favourite types out side of grass. I just wish the affection and exp share was optional as they weaken the enjoyment for me.
I actually noticed the same trend, more so for dark type. I've never really used it before, preferring ghost, but in my final team had honchkrow, drapion, and houndoom.
@@captaincriticize8050 I love my houndoom plus he has a rash nature so it's special attack is stupid high
@@rasaunyoung7774 my houndoom is a pimp. But I'm shooting for a shiny now. I have a foreign ditto and nothing but time this weekend
Using the herb items to heal (revival herb, energy powder, etc) lowers friendship/affection if you want
I had to keep party members in the PC to prevent overleveling during my playthrough of SP. It was frustrating, it makes no sense why it can't be turned off.
Was going through a very bad day. This put up a smile on my face.
So glad to hear it my friend, and hope the day gets better as it goes!! 🙏

Perfect way to start my Sunday ☺️
Will be joining you on the coffee front, cheers! :D
Oddly enough Wormadam is one of the Pokemon I didn't forget. Used one in my first playthrough on Platinum in it's trash form. Only have vague memories of back then but Burmy's odd evolution line has stuck in my memory because of it. More unique than what they did with rotom imo.
Steel is my favorite type. This went excellently and I really like how you actually used Jirachi (not for actual battles, but still my second favorite Pokémon of all time got some screen time so I’m happy).
Oh my gosh, I love how much you praised Wormadam.
The girl with the Milotic?
These videos are so gripping to watch yet so equally pleasant to go to sleep to, I can’t explain it haha. It’s my ASMR
I'm still saying no death run. You made all the way to Cynthia and than beat her and only Cynthia was enough to knock out any pokem9n.. you had a deathless run silph. Amazing run
Super appreciate the use of the Energy Powder! Love that he didn't take advantage of that friendship mechanic. #truehardcorenuzlocker
Silph pulling solids for all of us that aren't able to play the gen 4 remakes
I kind of want to see a poison type run on Soul Silver/Heart Gold. Also how the fuck is Jirachi not cute enough? Blasphemy.
Jirachi is quite literally one of the single cutest Pokémon in the whole series, and they said it wasn’t “cute enough”. Smfh.
I see what silph did he switched the secondary types of both box legendaries because palkia isn’t in brilliant diamond (the challenge he did last week) and dials isn’t in shining Pearl (which is this week’s challenge). Nice detail
And Shieldon is only in Pearl
@@BlindJedi im comfused, and? he’s playing pearl rn
@@blicharski8249 sheildon is a pearl exclusive fossil, cranidos is in Diamond but it’s pure rock which would make it not a viable steel encounter, which is why silph’s choice to play pearl for a steel run is a clever choice
i love how ILCA made the important fights challenging with perfect nature and EV trained pokemon it makes the game much harder and makes it more enjoyable imo
It's sad that their effort got completely wasted because of that bullshit affection system
doesn’t Flints Infernape have it’s hidden ability iron fist?
@@maverickvgc4220 Yeah...
@@maverickvgc4220 even the affection system is barely a match for Max IV and Max AI E4 and Champion
@@SgtSalamander it is a match, luck is a match
6:48 over 90 percent of Pokémon are tied to evolution but the current percentage is 81
What percentage was it in gen 4 though?
u cant include final evolutions
Bronzong carried me so hard in this game.
Levitate, leftovers, hypnosis, calm mind, psychic and heavy slam.
OMG I'm so impressed by this *beastly* bell
When silph uploads
Me and the pokemon boys: AVENGERS! ASSEMBLE!
Silph, it's ok. You can just tell us you really wanted to use Piplup in the remakes
Silph I super appreciate the fact that you gave some bitter herbs to your team before the league to block the weird affection mechanics 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 you are great, I love your videos 👍🏼
I wish you could just yknow, not be forced into it 😕
Cool sponsor, I got the blue whale tee and two different colored long sleeve shirts, thanks for exposing Khimyra to us!
6:45 according to Bulbapedia the current statistic is 84.19% if you include Legendaries and Mythicals. If you exclude them then it’s 90.87%
Funnily enough, I finished Brilliant Diamond a few days ago, and I also beat Cynthia using my beloved Bronzong (named Chime)! Also Silph, have you seen the video of the Wormadam sweep on Twitter? Interesting stuff!
Waiting for Silph to upload is part of my Sunday routine ☺️ Looking forward to this. I love the steel type and my Boy Empoleon can participate :D
thes past couple of days been binge watching your nuzzlock vids and love them all, if it's not asking too much can you do more single pkm runs. keep up the good work
Normal type SP would be a fun one!
I'm currently doing Normal type diamond, and suffered an early loss that's probably going to make me reset.
Ngl i hate the trading mechanic of this generation. There's no reliable way to ask for a pokemon, unlike the GTS. I've only needed the glameow and shieldon line for my pokedex for days.
Yay a new Nuzlocke thanks silph The video was great
Something interesting about Wormadam-trash: it's one of the best and most popular pokemon in Pokemon Go in some battle formats
YES I LOVE THESE STEEL TYPE NUZLOCES
Love seeing Wormadam being used since it's in my top three favorite Pokemon.
Really goes to show you that every pokemon is someone's favorite
@@Capta1nTD there's a Pokemon for everyone
100% need to do a new True Power for Gen 4 based on the post game rematches.
Bet
Just seeing the jirachi in the thumbnail i was immediately like " Oh bet he aint usin this. "
Edit:Oh Boi wasnt i wrong..
Lv 14 piplup in the originals was actually pretty easy to do so, I just kept growl and trained for defensive ev's
I'm kinda new to the hardcore nuzlocke scene. It's quite overdone and oftentimes cutted really quick, making me question if the playthrough is legit.
Yours seem well planned and quite fun, keep it up
no deaths til the last battle was Extremely impressive! i think you should try the avatar run i think youd enjoy it
Pokémon Platinum with only rock types would be incredibly hard, as the only Pokémon not 4x weak to fighting before the fighting gym so cranidos, who is both slow and has paper thin defenses.
ground isnt weak to fighting
pour one out for pepper, may you rest in peace queen 👑👑👑👑
Silph: Plays BD so he can't get the water type legendary. Plays SP so he can't get the steel type legendary.
That's commitment
I think grass run would be cool in BDSP and also this is probably my favorite run of all so far keep it up
really fun challenge! awesome to see the remakes have some challenge to them
I think you mean Burmy gives you a Biting chance...eh? Cause Bug Bite? I'll show myself out...
You tried that’s the good thing 👏🏻
Wormadam and Mothim are getting redemptions this gen and I love it. Quiver Dance is just so good.
FR they’re like the most superior bug types behind Scizor and herracross
@@juniperjahir38 especially with yanmega being post game only; only bug types not really doing it for me are Beautifly and Dustox, although still getting quiver dance is nice. Beautifly is outclassed by Mothim, and as far as “bulky” Quiver Dancer sweepers go, Dustox can at least run Roost and get some recovery going.
Bug types are eating well this gen
@@AnitaNapkin96 Yanma is like Carnivine but post game and is only available by looking through the binoculars in the great marsh, most would use Scyther but it’s typing is like mothim/beautifly much stronger and faster and more defensive however unlike Mothim doesn’t learn quiver dance or really use Special moves so Taht’s why they want Scizor, Scizor is a great pokemon but unlike Wormadam trash cloak it isn’t specially bulky and most Fire type moves are special attack, herracross is a great pokemon just so rare for honey trees and it’s weak to common types, Wormadam has the worst bug typing and best bug typing, you can get Grass/Bug, Ground/bug, and steel/bug depending on the location female Burmy evolves at, if you want a special type Wormadam to hit the hardest with quiver dance use Plant Cloak, if you want a wormadam more physically bulky and offensive with physical attack use the Sandy cloak, if you want a wormadam with the same offensive and defense use the trash cloak (recommend the trash cloak)
@@juniperjahir38 there’s also Vespiquen who I love using despite its pretty bad typing. But having that, Mothim, and Wormadam for Gardenia made her a breeze. Also that 4x resistance to Maylene’s fighting stab is nice.
@@AnitaNapkin96yes the king and queen, I saw a bug type one and Mothim destroyed Cynthia and Lucian whole team
nice that you didnt relied on the cheating power of love to finish a hardcore nuzlocke like a bunch of other you tubers LMAO, relying on that mechanic is no different than using itens or playing on change mode/overleveling
Aw yeah, this was awesome! 19/5, and deathless til the champ. This was real fun to watch!
Dang! Wormadam is underrated bro lol
Hey Great Video Buddy I’m A Big Fan Of Steel Type Pokémon!
Anyone else think its funny that he did the steel only in the remake w/ the Water legendary Palkia and vice versa in BD the water only w/ steel dragon legendary Dialga
silph, remember that platnum kricketot run, try doing it again in this game. i saw kricketot can have some proper moves this time like struugle bug, also he has pound instead of bide. so good luck with that if you accept
Props to the editing on this Nuzlocke, I laughed so hard.
Watching Silph's videos makes my work shift bearable, thanks Mr. Silph!!!
Jirachi put in the work as a good luck charm didn’t it. That was some insane nature luck with the Magnemite and Shieldon (and that Bronzor wasn’t too bad either)
Don’t forget about the MVP Wormadam
Wait the thing on its chest that I thought was a pouch all these years is a GIANT EYE… WTF?!
Hello SilphSpectre I recently found your channel through your True Power series, and I just wanted to thank you because I never knew that you could exchange numbers with the Kanto Gym leaders in the Gen 2 remakes.
You have given me a new reason to dig up my copy of Soul Silver and challenge myself again, so thank you.
Naming Theme: characters from that marvel ironman has met
Khimyra, Raid Shadow Legends And other Sponsers are Vilen!
Really enjoyed this run great video Silph 😃
I've been binging hardcore nuzzlockes for BDSP ever since I beat the main story - and this is the first one I've seen that actually used the bitter items to lower friendship, which really stood out to me as a dedication to the run. Excellent video!
ddr
13:29 I unironically love this music what's the name can anyone please tell?
When you fought the skuntank you used prinplup which was not a steel type yet
Steel type lovers sound off CLANG CLANG!
Most impressive thing about this run was the time. I can’t believe you did a successful monotype hardcore Nuzlocke of this game in under 25 hours. My friend and I are doing non-Nuzlocke monotype runs (level cap, no items), and my normal type team took 36 hours to become champion. You’re the GOAT
Pokemon emerald as manga ruby
Or bdsp as diamond from the manga
This was is easy to do - my favourite type is steel so I ran an all steel type team and bosses the whole game no sweat. Even Cynthia was EASY!
You should do a pokemon diamond or pearl flying type only challenge
I always love your vids. I hope to see Pokemon Y Hardcore Nuzlocke Fire type only
I'm surprised you never used Bastiodon's Sturdy + Metal Burst combo, it could've definitely helped against some major threats but the run was amazing nonetheless!
Jirachi is coming to your home and he is gonna stare right through ur soul
Would love to see an ORAS run of some kind in the future!
in the original games, piplup also only has bubble for guaranteed stab. 20 base power makes for a near impossible first gym.
40*
Day 151 of asking for Sinnoh True power e
Love the use of Jirachi. Great run
Pre-Gen 5: 16% of Pokemon don't evolve, so that's 84%
Post-Gen 5: 18% of Pokemon don;t evolve, so that would be 82%
So no, Dawn would be wrong.
Steel types are such a cool (and powerful) pick for nuzlockes, because there is a lot of good type coverages with there secondary typings.
Wormadam trash cloak was mvp of the run
Water and Steel are my favorite types so i loved these 2 videos.
Interesting, I used the sturdy metal burst combo to take out garchomp in my playthrough
you should use fire types in pokemon fire red
The memes in this one were so fire. Definitely paused to laugh several times.
this was such a cool run!
Thinking on this, not knowing full numbers, I suspect this was deathless if you had the fighting resist berry or the Focus Sash(Though very RNG to get) on Lucario (Allowing you to swap into an Aura Sphere and still have plenty of life for the extreme speed) It seems like Wormadam was tossed away. Giga Drain would have helped make it more survivable for the Milotic (and helped better with the quiver set up) And finally I don't see why Magnezone was sacked off. You seemed to be praying that Tri Attack would status, and that you 'needed' a sturdy pokemon to take the earthquake... except you have Bronzong and could have swapped in on the Earthquake and then, as you pointed out, it can't really 'do' anything to Garchomp. While not guaranteeing no death (Since crits) that would have allowed you, from my limited perspective, to have made it deathless.
Wht they even use those chibi outerworld models if every npc has to have battle model with realistic proportions anyway. It's doubling work for graphics with making and riging both. Battle models are more detailed and engine wouldn't handle them in mass?
Silph man hope you’re well. Never get tired of your sh*t talking in these nuzlocke videos 😂 hope to catch you on Twitch again soon!
Says it’s been TWO whole months since your last video… are you still doing them or stopped for your own personal reasons?
Have a thought of a video I know, like any challenge you can SMASH like the Incredible Hulk, that I and probably most anyone would be interested in seeing… What about a Pokémon Scarlet OR Violet minimum battles video?
TH-camr *Pikayoon* is actually currently the only TH-camr who I see such a style video for that line. And it’s a VERY interesting challenge and I am TRYING it.. And it gives to me, a new feel to the words “Pokémon CHALLENGE run” cause gosh, am I having a time 😅
3:18 And btw when you zoomed in on that bowl of something from the character’s home- actually paying attention this time lol, it looked like a bowl of sliced pickles to me. 😂
“Touch me again and I’ll rip your head off” SilphSpectre 2021
R.I.P
Dawn 2006-2021
“Over 10 yrs old yet still looks small”
Please do a run that features Meowth 🙂
I almost always skip ads but once I saw the prices my inner penny-pincher I checked em out👀 actually nice looking designs at fair prices when they're also doing their part to be sustainable gets my attention
Shout out to Vitas at 4:14. Deep cut, man
Another great video. Definitely put new light on Wormadam
Im a simple man. I see Empoleon, I hit like. Hashtag TH-cam Algorithm
A wormadam single handedly beating two E4 members is utter insanity. Holy crap Silph.
Your vids are addicting i watched all nuzlocks in few days and i was not even never interested in this type of content. Probably because you don't sound like a 10 year old like many pokemon TH-camrs
finally somebody realizes how good wormadam trash is lol. I actually use a quiver dance one on my pokemon showdown BDSP OU team lol
WHOOP WHOOP NOTIFICATIONS SQUAD WHERE U AT
The best squad out there
2:23
This is when the important part of the video starts. :D
Maybe you should simply do a “no capture” run, given, if you have a Sword/ Shield file you can be given a Jirachi and if you have a let’s go Pikachu/ Eevee you can get Mew (and?) or Celebi and I believe both Pokémon grifters are early game ones. Plus other gifted Pkmn like the Rilu egg, so.. In short I figure it’s gotta be a possibility for a Nuzlocke..
Everytime you use the why are you running clip, a jirachi gets to grant a wish. Please allow jirachi to continue to grant wishes.
