CAN I BEAT A POKÉMON HEARTGOLD HARDCORE NUZLOCKE WITH ONLY FIRE TYPES!? (Pokémon Challenge)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 ต.ค. 2024
- It's time for another Pokemon challenge! HeartGold with only Fire types seemed like a really fun and challenging idea, as not only is it a limited type in most games, but they also take a long time to evolve and a long time to develop into good Pokemon in terms of stats & movepools. Let's see how this goes!
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 HeartGold Hardcore Nuzlocke with only Fire types?

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.

Here we go! It's time to heat up and take on the Fire type! Fire is a type that tends to evolve late & have poor movepools until later on so I thought it would be a really intriguing challenge. Dont' forget to follow me on Twitch to see these runs LIVE! www.twitch.tv/silphspectre
Where were u last sunday
Love your nuzlockes keep up the good work!
Do you plan to do a Sinnoh true power series and tournament as you’ve already done Cynthia?
Holy hell the AP boost!!
A tips for future challenges like these: Natural Gift. Now you have a move with any type.
Lance: “I fear no man or Pokémon, but that…thing…”
Gary the Magcargo: “Meow.”
Lance: “It scares me….”
Mikey: the person who made slugma deserve to use a slugma on his team
@@soulhoney1227 silph made,, slugma???
hail yeah
The Virgiplosion vs The Chadcargo
Lance: you cannot defeat me and my indestructible Dragon-types
Gary: but what about my slugma-type attacks?
Lance: Slugma-type? what's a slugma-type?
Gary: slugma nuts G *OHKO*
Lance : gah! what did you do to my team?
Gary : ask your magcargo.
Lance : but i don't have one-
Gary: your MAMAGCARGO G *ANCIENT POWERED*
WHY ARE THESE SO FUCKIN FUNNY
@@drawnwithlove3499 I had a Cyndaquil with Modest Nature, and it's a female at the same time. I was possibly the luckiest person.
Lance: You can't defeat me.
Gary: I like ya cut g. (Snipes Lance's Charizard)
Lance: what.
During my SoulSilver nuzlocke...
Heatling, come with me. You'll be my Typhlosion replacement.
slugma nutsacc
@@drawnwithlove3499 they're cringe
MandJTV's Magcargo: I'm weak as phuck
SilphSpectre's Magcargo: Ancient power goes brrrrrr
rock tosser
True
MandJTV: I named my slugma fast and I have no idea why I guess I thought naming it that would give it that attribute.
SilphSpectre: I named mine after Gary the snail from SpongeBob.
SilphSpectre's Magcargo to MandJTV's Magcargo: You...are weak. Why...are you weak? You lack...hatred.
i need a "but it survived on 1 hp" shirt
commenters will hear any random combination of words from a youtuber and say "I need that on a shirt"
@@iBenjamin1000 "insert quote shirt" is the best shirt
Awesome idea
Ikr
The shirt should say:
"But it survived on 1 hp
UNREAL!" 😆
“But it misses” easily the quickest rollercoaster of emotions I’ve been on all day
Hell yea let’s go. Not surprise see by Bugsy being difficult. He is after all the true power champion
He’s a he??? I’m so surprised, I thought he was a she but apparently she is a he, ok thanks for clarifying
*Hail yeah
@@ethandubois796 *Hail no
I had no idea about the Primo thing. I think having slugma so early is super neat! Love learning new things about these games! Great run!
That's the goal! Not only do I enjoy discovering cool little intricacies of the games, but I love sharing them too! I feel these hardcore nuzlockes are really great for that 😄
You can also get Wooper and Mareep
That's how TFS managed to get Ivan Ooze.
Gary the absolute f***ing legend. Now we know how he got 10 badges.
I like the commentary your commentary is better than everyone for me.
I love the shiny tangela in your photo :)
Yes you are right
Yeah I watch others too but he is the best
flygonhg can compare too
@@xAstrophyte my 2 favorites
Seeing Magcargo pull through Lance was incredible to see. Just plain incredible.
Today’s a good day when a monotype nuzlocke comes out
Not only that, but one with the most epic and cliffhanger moments I've seen so far. Every boss battle was on the edge of the seat for me
Quilava's Impish nature saved it from the battle with Bugsy
I was completely burned out until I saw this video and my eyes lit up
This man's dad joke level is amazing
Love the fire puns
Fun fact - lance is not a dragon trainer
He is a bird keeper
Oh my god so many likes
Good one 🤣
Mandjtv refrence
Or.... something that has been a joke for 20 years
@Berny Arias no the joke has existed for like 15 years
Mandjtv reference
*SPOILERS FOR THE RESULT OF THE NUZLOCKE*
NO GODS
NO KINGS
ONLY GARY
Long live the king.
100% *FIRE SNAIL*
No gods. No kings. Only MRRRROWR.
Marry me
Ladies and gentlemen, we got a new god of pokemon
The fully evolved Fire Pokémon that you had in your team towards the end look so sick! Thanks for the very entertaining videos. You’ve inspired me to play my old GB and NDS + some emulators!
He had Magmar, not Magmortar. It isn't possible to fully evolve it in the main story
Man seeing you play literally made me download an emulator, a randomizer, and a bunch of Pokémon games just to play through again!
Same!
I found my old 3ds and played Pokémon Y a few weeks ago, I wanna get my pc back from my hometown just to download some emulators too, and and maybe buy a switch for Sword, my love for the games came back just from watching videos like these
Same but I was watching zwiggo
@@drivernephi3929 SWSH aren't worth it imo
Thx for the advice I will borrow it from a friend, he will also let me have SSBU since he doesn’t play with his switch anymore, I probably would have bought swsh if it wasn’t for the Dinamax mechanic, I wish gamefreak continued using mega evolutions and gave megas to more mons but oh well
I will say this. Do HC Nuzlocke on USUM with just bug-type.
What is hc
@@syedfareedali1478 hardcore
Done it without the Nuzlocke. Was a lot of fun. You get Volcarona towards the end
@@GamerGrovyle woah, just about to say that too. I just finished it lol. I hacked my starter to be a Venipede since Scolipede has similar stats to the other starters and a similar ability in Swarm. I had to grind til it was a Scolipede to beat the fire trial since they’d spam fire moves. It was so fun. I replaced Popplio since Hau would have Incineroar. I’m doing ORAS with Dragon types next.
Is Quillan a reference to the Pendragon novels?
OMG SOMEBODY GOT IT! HERO
Bruh I thought it was a reference to krillin from the dragon ball series
I also got this haha. Sending this to the pendragon discord now lol
I was guessing it was a reference to the Aquillian Shields from warhammer 40k
@@haydenmann6711 same
Karen vs Millennial sounds like the most epic of battles
Underrated Comment
Everything about that Chuck battle was insane.. that flinch AND burn from the fire fang was so important
Cyndaquil nickname is a reference to Krillin from dragon ball.
It's because of the bald head and closed eyes
that's the one
*quillin*
That was my first thought but he said "obscure reference" and Krillin seemed too obvious.
Uwu quillin
I know this challenge recommendation will sound easy, but I want to see you try playing Pokémon sun and moon only using flying types as a hardcore nuzlocke. It’s really hard because of early game magnimites, and Olivia being insanely difficult with her rock types. So I really want to see you try it.
Well, Magnemite really can't do much to Rowlet
Putting the words sun and moon and really hard in the same sentence? Maybe for a 6 year old
@@skotiaH2O Rowlet in such a challenge can’t even fully evolve. I’m not sure how much that’s gonna matter.
@@skeetermania3202 Yeah but you just need to deal with the Magnemites in the early game. You can deposit Dartrix later on when you get access to the stronger mons like Hawlucha, Archeops etc
@@skotiaH2O Aside from Cutiefly, which Fairy types are available before the first Kahuna?
That was crazy. Never thought I'd see a clutch magcargo
My favorites ALWAYS die in your series, so at 30:00 I was SHOOK
No one will ever be as smooth as gary
I swear you’re so good at making these battles have an emotional roller coaster feel to them with quotes like “but it misses” , “but it lives on what must be 1HP” , “but it crits”
His Slugma's nickname is a reference to Spongebob's pet snail, Gary
Omg
Wow
I know
Damm i thought that as well
Typhlosion is one of my absolute favorites, feels so good to see it again
Guess we know who you will pick for LEGENDS
Before watching you I didn't knew about the set battle mode, it positively changed my rom hack gameplays so much
Now you got to be appreciative of the natures of the Slugma and Cyndaquil after playing big roles vs Lance😂😂
Lance: I fear no one, but that thing *Gary* It scares me
All you need is a typhlosion with return, earthquake, thunderpunch and flamethrower in the original gen2 games to sweep the whole game.
If you're following the no overlevel clause you will get outsped by gengar, aerodactyl and all of the dragonites in the elite four, plus the charizard, and eventually rip
man when thunderpunch was typhlosion's best move in gen 2 cuz that meant it only had 2 weaknesses and feraligatr basically would have only one with ice punch-
i'm still sad the elemental punch tms were removed from gen 4's johto games
@@MLmaster135 you can still get the elemental punches in the GEN2 remakes, it's just a post game thing.
But yes, thunder punch on typhlosion was amazing, especially since it was still a special move in GEN2
@@Reir0o IF we are following that, but I never said I was. All I said was with those moves and at a minimum a LVL60 typhlosion you could sweep the game, with typhlosion holding a leftovers in the original GEN2 games.
P.S and he wouldnt necessarily be RIP. Even if you exclude leftovers, the use of healing items after a battle is allowed. So with the right luck, you probably could do it even with a non over leveled Typhlosion.
@@tonpalacios2964 ah, if i remember it was.. battle frontier i think you could get the elemental punches?
gens 1 and 2 were wild with.. how the exp system was "stat exp" where you.. basically just need to fight the strongest "stat giving" pokemon
like gen 2, you mostly wanted to fight unown til.. at least level 24 with your starter. its actually pretty interesting,
tho i'm.. legitimately not sure how any.. perfect stat mons in the gen 2 games work when transferred to a different game(like natures and stuff) but i don't really worry about that(as pokebank is kinda a scam if you don't have specific games)
These pokemon are lit!
God I suck at jokes. Atleast it's good for the TH-cam algorithm
Comments are good for the TH-cam algorithm
Comments are good for the TH-cam algorithm

I’ve said “TH-cam is good for the TH-cam algorithm” 3 times now lmao

3:38 Lol. Love how you named your Slugma after Spongebob's snail.
Dude I'm not gonna lie, I had lost hope when I saw all you had was Gary left against Lance. The sheer joy I felt seeing that little guy pull it off was immense! Great video!
Is Quillan referenced off Eddie Quillan? He was an actor and a singer in the 1980s.
If anyone hates on the Cyndyquil line, I always like to remind them that they have the same stats as Charmander.
But with a worse moveset and no upgraded forms. I prefer Cyndaquill line but it is just objectively worse.
wow that makes it even worse
I don't think people like/dislike Pokemon because of stats
Pranav Sridhar literally most of the fanbase hates Pokémon because of stats
@@welcomestranger7180 no
The Pendragon series is so good. Glad to see another man of culture.
Yeah, I was thinking Quillan games as well!
I legit thought I was the only one who read the Pendragon series. Glad to see there's others!
Should have known bugsy was going to be harder than you thought, you remember what happened in the True Power tournament?
Quillan as in Pendragon? That's a throwback
I feel like Quillan might be a reference to the Pendragon book series 🥺
Such an amazing series too!
Holly that run was crazy!! I thought things were over but you pulled throw for an incredible victory
It might be weird to navigate, but I’d love to see a sword&shield run through with dragon types! Haxorus, Noivern, Goodra, Duraludon, Dracovish, Flygon, Hydreigon, Kommo-o, and Dragapult for lots of choices!
I feel like in most pokemon games are a huge middle finger to fire mono type nuzlockes. Like my pokemon diamond, 2 pokemon only! A rapidash and an infernape. I haven't passed Cynthia's garchomp :/
Yeah, I don't know much about xy or gens 7 and 8 but from the first 5 gens + oras, bw2 is the only one i can think of that isn't terrible for mono fire and even that isn't fantastic
True, x and y isn't terrible just due to the great variety in the game overaĺ
Diamond and pearl’s Pokedex is just the worst, I suggest playing Platinum since Platinum’s Pokèdex is way better with 6 overrall fire types (Im pretty sure its 6 but idk it might be 5, either way Sinnoh hates fire types)
@@MassWonderFC the fire types I know in platinum: magmorter, houndoom, rapidash, infernape, flareaon, and the rotom thing.
The only Quillan I know is a commune in France, I doubt that’s the reference tho
France forever, the best country in the world
Gary being the MVP at the end is just incredible.
This run is basically a middle finger to every mecargo hater
(Not gonna lie that's includes me unfortunately)
Hold up but Magcargo made them win the run tho, why is it a middle finger to magcargo lmao?
Send this video to MandJTV
@@MassWonderFC magcargo hater*
@@MassWonderFC you didn't even read the comment bro I said its haters
@@mohammedani5142 oh damn thx for spotting my mistake lol
He uses flareon ONE time and it died 😭
When I found out about these eggs, I was so hype. It’s really cool getting so many types so early.
Gary's clutch win against Lance reminded me of my own unexpected clutch, a Linoone in my nuzlocke of Alpha Sapphire.
Linoone is a beast.
Your commentary is the best I stg xD
That champion battle was insane! Grats silph, this is one of my favourite runs of yours for sure
Really enjoy your stuff! So happy to see a new one today 🔥
Man, the whole run had me really engaged, great job as always!
Also the final battle against Lance was terrifying at times but glad you managed to do it, it was sooo stressful towards the end
I love your nuzlocke videos because every time you make an analysis about the type, and you always show the encounters. Great video man
Krillin Quillin’s Chillin
The Bugsy fight gave me flashbacks to mine. I was doing a normal run and I was using my Quilava (Smoker) to take out Scyther. It got 3 crit Quick Attacks in a row. I did heal between attacks to live but what in the world are those odds??
Assuming it’d set up focus energy and that this is a Gen 4 game, that’s a 0.01562% chance, or about 1 in 6,402.
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 kurt is like I broke my back that tyson clip had in the floor 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
This sht is so hype you earned a sub from me bro. That Lance battle was just 🔥
Destiny demanded that Gary die…
But Gary said “Smell ya later”
That battle with chuck was chock full of crazy rng and weird AI luck. You had no right making it out of there with 0 deaths, what a wild ride XD.
Edit: Just got to the Lance fight, even crazier.
"The toughest problems are solved by throwing effort at the wall and seeing if it breaks"
This has to be fate bc I juss started a fire nuzlocke in my heartgold also. Silph I'm in your mind now. Also congrats on the 100K
I swear these nuzlocke challenges have me GASPING like I'm watching a thriller LOL
Hey man love the content, if you are up to it I’d love to see a grass only soul silver nuzlocke. I think that it would offer an incredibly challenging journey and would love to watch as I am doing a grass only play through right now, except mine isn’t a nuzlocke because I’m not nearly as good. I know you are obviously coming off doing a heart gold run so I get if you don’t want to do it. Thanks for making the awesome content!
This reference for Quillan better not be foreshadowing for a death haha
Me: gets a silphspectre notification
Also me: *GOTTA GO FAST*
In loving memory of Chariot, Kindle, Quillan, Milton and Millennial.
Also, LONG LIVE GARY!!!
You are such a champ using your time to play these games
Thanks for this Silph.
Been pretty bummed lately and these are always a good time for me.
Me: Gary is my favorite in his challenge I hope he doesn't die
AT THE END OF THE VIDEO Gary becomes the only SURVIVOR!
Silph: We cant win that battle (Champion Battle)
Gary: Hold my food bowl
Oh wow i never knew that your starter could hold something
I love the mike tyson reference at slowpoke cave. Good man.
Suggestion Ghost only playthrough on Ultra Moon
I dont know why,but i love this guy's Voice. Its like a attempt of not trying to be a
Narrator,but failing in the best way possible
Oh yes. My day is good now. 🤩
Great video as always man. Congrats on 100k subscribers!! Crazy to see how far you've grown. Here's to the road to 200k man. I'll be along for the ride the whole way. Also Gary is the GOAT lol. What a clutch stat boost lol.
Is it just me or does anyone else wanna see a hardcore nuzlocke from a 3ds Pokemon?
That Chuck battle was exceedingly lucky.
Gary easy mvp
Gary coming in clutch. Who would of thought a magcargo is the saviour of a nuzlocke lol.

Monotype: but that thing scares me
hehehe slugma has a naughty nature ( I have the mind of a child)
Spongebob would be proud of this ending.
the Mike Tyson part killed me🤣
This challenge is so intense and so fun,I got nervous so many times,dude!
THAT WAS SO CLUTCH 😭😭😭😭😭I started cheering once you beat Lance
Oh MAN that Tyson reference KILLED ME! I think I rewinded that like six times, I'll never see Kurt the same again, it's now part of the lore...😂 🤣
Honestly Cyndaquil’s walking sprite was always so fkin adorable to me. It’s his lil eyes that always make him look so sleepy, I’d get 3rd degree burns just to cuddle him
Okay. I'm running through this challenge myself now, and the fight with Clair is absolutely BRUTAL. The calcs put the win percentage about 10 percent, same with Solarbeam on Magmar, and the only other useful strat is sun-boosted Blast Burn with Choice Specs and/or Blaze. A crit or a miss with Kingdra is basically required to not lose out and get swept. I did manage to get the crit, and from there it's relatively easy, but I have to hand it to Silph's luck and setup, Light Screen was crucial.
Yo that end had me on the edge of my seat lol.
Amazing work Silph, 💪 another great video and another great run.
You can get Ponyta before the Victory Road. You don't even need the National Dex to get it.
I’ve been playing Pokémon HeartGold since it came out and genuinely had no idea that u could get a slugma egg in violet city
I only found out about that as well. The egg in Violet City can be hatch into 1 of the 3:
Mareep, Wooper, Slugma
Good news: that Fire Blast against the Machamp wouldn't have missed anyway, since it has No Guard!
