  • A hardcore nuzlocke with six Pokemon is hard enough, but what if I only had access to two?
    Twitter: / flyingfalcons_7
    Business email: flyingfalcons22@gmail.com
    Regular Hardcore Rules:
    1. No items in battle.
    2. No leveling past upcoming Gym Leader's highest level Pokemon.
    3. Battle mode must be "Set".
    Trainer Data: docs.google.co...
    I'm always looking to make my videos better, so constructive feedback in the comments is appreciated!

    Btw, you technically said at the beginning that you were only using two pokemon "in combat." So maybe it wouldn't have been cheating to put an exp share on your Zigzagoon to use as an EXP sink in between tight level caps? Idk just my cheater brain thinking lol

    Something you could've done about the overleveling issue, within the rules of the run, would be to give the Exp. Share to Castform or any other party member to have it take away half the experience you get, and it wouldn't break the rules if you never send it out in battle.

I actually tried that in the first real run, but went ~0/15 on getting poisoned by effect spore and wasted an hour. You are correct though, that would be a guaranteed win

    • @flyingfalcons7
      @flyingfalcons7  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are two modes you can choose between in the options menu, set and switch. The game always starts out as switch mode, meaning you can switch every time you knock out an opposing pokemon(this is the one you're referring to). Set mode, which is what I have to set it to to follow the hardcore rules, means that you won't get the option to switch out.
