There's no Dusk Stone before the post-game, you say? Well, as someone who uses a Chandelure in my current run of Pokemon Y, I evolved my Lampent after beating Olympia. The Dusk Stone was located in a maze in Terminus Cave.
Exactly. I was stunned that he didn't know about this considering he's done so many Pokemon runs. A little bit sad cuz Chandelure is one of my fav Pokemon.
Actually he said 'essentially' no dusk stone. To me that would imply he knew about the terminus cave one and just didn't want to get it for some reason. The heat-rotom is obviously more useful than Chandelure for a fire type only run anyways, so I'd say chances are pretty good that he just preferred having the STAB electric type than wasting time getting an out of the way dusk stone for an inferior encounter.
@@Kandall05161 you do make a fair point. Come to think of it, not just Rotom overshadowed Chandelure, as Houndoom's Dark type has the same offensive coverage as Chandelure's Ghost type. Thinking about it more, if we ever get a new type again, I wish it does something to make Ghost and Dark type more different on offense, so that choosing between them had greater impact.
24:54 I had a funny moment with the Memory Girl in my first Y nuzlocke. I had her read the memory of my star Azumarill and she brought up the fact that we did super training. She even says "Bean remembers feeling very stressed" which was funny because I was actually getting stressed out over that Magneton stage. Little things like that made my Y nuzlocke special.
Ever since Chamander in gen 1, fire has been one of my favorite types. But their just aren’t many of them to do a good nuzlocke run in most generations
I remember unintentionally doing a fire type only run of this game when I first played it, I finished it in 8 hours. Mind you, that wasn’t a challenge of any kind I was just very hyped the first day and there was an event torchic with speed boost
I just wanted to say thanks for making such great content. It's really inspired me to change the way I play Pokemon, and it's really enjoyable to watch these videos! :)
The TH-camr Choatic Meatball did a mono fire type run in Pokémon Y and did it in 4 attempts and I believe that Keegan J did a fire mono type run in Pokémon Y as well.
Hey thanks so much for the super! For some reason TH-cam just decided to notify me about it now Appreciate it a lot and the videos will keep coming your way!
Charmander faces in another direction because the generation is well beyond generation 1, it more easily clarifies that charmander is a fire type so you can see his tail makes it easier the newer pokemon players. Dunno why since you can just hover over it for the type. But that’s the explanation for it.
But all the starters are color coded by types. Like bulbasaur is green & grass, squirtle is blue & water, so wouldn’t it be obvious for new players that the orange pokemon is fire??? Like the starters are always grass/water/fire sooo it’s a matter of process of elimination haha
You couldve switched out Houndoom after the Taunt on Klefki. Taunt still lingers after switching out so none of you other pokemon wouldve been tormented right away.
Taunt makes the afflicted Pokémon unable to use status moves.The effect lasts two turns or until the subject is switched out. = it doesn't remain after switching out
Loved the video, you should try a omega ruby/alpha sapphire mega only run. Edit: For the people who say it would be to easy he could limit the amount of encounters and/or limit what pokemon he can mega evolve.
@@UrFavoriteArsonist And? Entertainment is Entertainment. If I wanted more difficulty I'd ask. Nah. His humor. Storytelling & presentation leaves the Entertainment aspect incomplete.
26:34 You can get a Dusk Stone before postgame by Super Training one of your pokemon to the max and then beating the Aegislash Edit: there's also one in Terminus Cave
4:20 Nah, they likely wouldn't. Catching a Bunnelby at ~25% health in a normal ball is about 87.5% odds, so not getting it even 8 times in a row is already ~1 in 17 million odds. Not getting it 50 times in a row would be 1 in 1.5*10^45 odds.
I was pretty bummed out when you replaced Simisear. 💔 The elemental monkey trio are highly underrated, IMO. ah well, at least he got some time to shine! 🔥
Never been this early! So happy I could catch this. And you know what would be a fun challenge? Beating Pokémon Sword/Shield with ONLY one evolution Pokémon, so no starter or any Pokémon with evolutions. Only one form Evoultions.
So happy :) . I asked you to do this a bit over a month ago on twitter. You did much better then me though I didn't want to use mega evo on charizard. Keep up the great content.
Fire nuzlocke vid as usual Silph! (Pun fully intended lol) always appreciate the content but was wondering if you've ever considered adding more rules to the runs for more challenges. The one I had in mind specifically was limiting the number of Pokémon your allowed to use in battle to that of the next gym leader or elite 4 member?
If you wanted to get away from the dugtrios on route 13, you could've had Pheonix or the fully evolved Greymon at the front, arena trap doesn't work against flying types
Gonna be honest, if you banned the use of dynamax in SwSh runs, you should have banned the use of megas (especially the OP charizard megas) for this run. I'm also, once again!, requesting a fighting type XY run! Oh, and yet again, Vivillon is pronounced Viv-Vee-On, not Viv-Villon. Its French. Edit: I swear I do enjoy these runs Silph 😅 I feel I always comment harshly but it's just constructive criticism.
Silph, this was awesome! Hey, how about this challenge: Pokemon X/Y (your choice) with only Bug types! I would love you to do this, because nobody did it before, its not too hard, you will probably use a bunch of pokemon you have never used before (you even have some megas, like Mega Beedrill!) yet you will still have many challenges (like Grant perhaps?). Its also my birthday tomorrow. Good luck and keep up the good work!
🤣 love 8:35, “tony hawk, baby! Oh look an oran berry” reminded me of the end of the fight between Scott pilgrim and Lucas Lee (in the movie) This video Is brilliant. I think I’ve watched it 3-4 times, skipping backwards to rewatch the parts that I laughed over…. There were a lot of those parts.
I'm currently doing a hard-core nuzlocke (for fun no video.) with only fire types and without evolving my pokemon. Your video helped me understand how the encountering rule works.
I have an few Ideas. 1. A Nuzlocke using only Pokemon with 4x weaknesses. 2. A Nuzlocke with no STAB attacks. 3. A Nuzlocke with Pokemon with only one typing.
35/7. This was another great vid. Suspenseful, as well, I feel. You oughta try an OR/AS run next, so you have an opportunity to use Mega Evolution there, also.
Bro I just spent the whole day continuing with my embroidery/cross stitch of a shiny female Shinx while listening to your videos, didn't even realise I spent like 3 hours in the same position until I had to swap devices to continue watching
this nuzlocke is so great for people who wants to start off their first nuzlocke you can get much encounters from the beginning and also don't have to clutch on the first gym
Man this was a painful run to watch at times. From losing Braixen pretty early on to Pyroar sacing itself because of Mega Gyarados, quite a lot of unlucky moments. At least Silph made it out with a pretty successful end and a good number of teammates left.
I HATE chespin. I still remember picking it because it's cute and then feeling catfish when it evolved, felt even worse when it's final evolution was trash. First time I ever boxed my starter on a new playthrough, I traded for a gourgeist and was way happier.
Normal Playthrough in HeartGold/SoulSilver is a doozy! I’ve done it, and you get some good encounters with decent movepools. Steel and Fighting gyms will be pretty rough, but then play through was quite fun.
I'm glad Magcargo finally got a bit of a spotlight. Always loved that pokemon, but was always disappointed in it never being that great. Doesn't stop me from having one in every playthrough I can though.
X and Y were great except for the rivals. They literally get a second starter like you do. Plus Serena never uses a talonflame/bunnelby after she shows you how to catch pokemon. Big lame.
Arena Trap Pokémon on Route 13 could be avoid with Talonflame. Flying types and other "raised" Pokémon (like those with Levitate, or users of Magnet Rise etc) are immune to the ability.
As I watch this video I just have to say that to be sincerely honest in my humble opinion without being sentimental of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my own point of view and without hiding any thought in my mind and without lies to the actual truth with my clear open mind and clean heart expressing whatever is embedded in me for a long time, but I have gathered courage and motivation, I just want to say that I actually feel and think I have absolutely nothing to say Thank u
Do you think it would be possible to do a nuzlocke using just flying types but normal flying types are banned? For example, talonflame would be allowed because it's a fire flying, but Pidgeot would be banned because it's a normal flying. I think it might be possible in x because you'll have access to Gyarados, talonflame, and jumpluff setting up a fire/water/grass core and with a little bit of grinding you'll be able to add Charizard to that roster
I had to pause at 23:04 lol. There's no reason Valerie should be hard for you here. I recently did a hardcore nuzlocke where I was only using short pokemon (2 ft tall or less), and I swept her with a Charmander XD

Can you please do a collab with Flygon? Or Antler Boy in any case. Would be superb.

I love when you do these mono type runs it makes me wonder how your gonna beat certain parts of the game and the rotom was brilliant idea
I'd be curious to see how this run would go in Y, where you don't get Dragon STAB but you _do_ get Drought.
Probably easier.
The TH-camr Choatic Meatball did a mono fire type run in Pokémon Y and did it in 4 attempts and I believe that Keegan J did a fire mono type run in Pokémon Y as well.
The Charmander line's level up learnset is mostly special and Mega Zard Y is better than X
@@mattn0414 zard x is better because ddance
No Houndoom in Pokemon Y tho
@@Randroth there's this very small issue. Houndoom is not the sharpest tool in the shed
These nuzlockes never fail to make my day better.

I have been sorta binging your nuizlockes for the past couple weeks. Admittedly, I run them in the background when playing video games. Still great.

Woah, you did your maths
26:30 actually you can enter Terminus cave before the post game just not enter Zygarde’s room
I was pretty bummed out when you replaced Simisear. 💔
The elemental monkey trio are highly underrated, IMO. ah well, at least he got some time to shine! 🔥
Sundays are usually slow as hell at work, so Silph's uploads are always a welcome sight.
I did this run last month, and it was SO hard. Fire types are cool but they aren't very strong IMO. Amazing video, Silph!!
Never been this early! So happy I could catch this. And you know what would be a fun challenge? Beating Pokémon Sword/Shield with ONLY one evolution Pokémon, so no starter or any Pokémon with evolutions. Only one form Evoultions.
Good idea 💡
One evolution like Tauros or like Rattata who only evolved once?
@@damianodidomenico4756 I think they mine like Tauros
@@justarandomviewer6756 Exactly, only one stage evolution. No Pokémon that evolve can be used.
I personally don't use Megas in Nuzlockes, as they tend to be too powerful.
I'll never understand people who think the Wii U was a bad product.
The Wii U had the original Mario 3D world and Captain Toad treasure tracker, plus many more. In what world is it bad?
watching your nuzlocke videos have inspired me to try to complete one for myself, currently attempting ss nuzlocke. great content as usual siloh

Can I just say, houndoom being my favorite Pokémon, I am so glad he at least made it through to the elite four.
Pokemon X & Y are already SO EASY, using mega evolutions makes it even easier
And?
"and I named him Greymon" hmm, I see that silph chose violence again.
could be wrong but i believe Water Sport only applies while the user is in battle so i think you could’ve used ember on the bug gym’s ace
As a guy who did this exact challenge before it was
Amazing.X and Y has one of the best pokedex to do any challenge with making it very fun
Doing a Normal Type nuzlocke in X/Y is fun too. Lots of combinations.
Simple. I see a SilphSpectre video and I drop everything and watch. Love these challenges!

Hi silph I’ve been playing monotype for a while and your the one who inspired me to play mono bug I love your content!!!
Is it me or has silly never done an ORAS mono run? I’d love to see one of them
Wow Silph that run was just memorable! Great job, you really showed fire Pokemons' value!

you and PC are the reason I tried a nuzlocke on my own...guess I have a long way to go
20:35 resists electric, not neutral. also valerie is extremely creepy
Really wanted to see a Delphox run… the game giveth and the game taketh away
In my opinion X and Y graphics are still beautiful, even for such an old game.
“IF I HAD ONE!!!” I lost it 😂😂😂😂
Lol
"Oh hey, I love these games, Delphox is my favourite Fire Starter, it also wrecks these games. Can't wait to see it in action!"

Fire types! It's such a pity that Arcanine isn't in Pokemon XY, because it's my favourite Pokemon ever
Oh dang, I was just on break looking for a video to watch and this pops up. Nice.
You found a male litleo first time, without bulbapedia I'd have though it was exclusive to Lissander somehow.
this nuzlocke is so great for people who wants to start off their first nuzlocke you can get much encounters from the beginning and also don't have to clutch on the first gym

Unrelated, but I’m super jelly that you got to witness and stand near a legend like Yao. Loved him growing up lol
Turbo is like, the 3rd Magcargo to live a Hardcore Nuzlocke. They must be lucky for you
I HATE chespin. I still remember picking it because it's cute and then feeling catfish when it evolved, felt even worse when it's final evolution was trash. First time I ever boxed my starter on a new playthrough, I traded for a gourgeist and was way happier.
Oh man. Poor chespin
02:47 click here to start the video
Actually, you can get the dusk stone before the postgame. I got one from Terminus Cave before fighting Lysandre to get an Aegislash in my Playthrough
26:40 you should have access to super training, which can give you a Dusk Stone
Don't you get super training around the first gym or smth? Wasted opportunity right there, i got a Gallade before the second gym
As muchas Gen 6 was "easy," I still think X/Y is the most aesthetic and fun game since crystal
Hell yeah! Let's hear it for funny monke who actually survived the entire run somehow. I thought he would end up getting sacked but funny monke lives!
That was a fun video to watch. Can't wait for the next one.
Sad you lost Braixen.... But Greymon made up for it!!!
Great run as always man!
The only ad that I didn't skip 10/10 would buy those Japanese snacks
Been waiting for this!!! ❤️😁
Normal Playthrough in HeartGold/SoulSilver is a doozy! I’ve done it, and you get some good encounters with decent movepools. Steel and Fighting gyms will be pretty rough, but then play through was quite fun.

Arena Trap Pokémon on Route 13 could be avoid with Talonflame. Flying types and other "raised" Pokémon (like those with Levitate, or users of Magnet Rise etc) are immune to the ability.
Rotom and Charizard were absolute legends throughout this play through.
Let’s go! Congrats on 200k
I swear Rotom is a must-have for any electric or fire monotype team in my opinion because of its ability to change types based on its form.
Really liked the love for Turbo!
when I got fennekin fully evolved and saw what it looked like it got perma-boxed
Mean
I LEAPT out of my chair when I saw freaking Mega Charizard X in the thumbnail! I knew this was gonna be a treat!
