- Can I beat a hardcore Nuzlocke of Pokémon Ultra Sun using only the Alolan Variants?
Alola was the first region to introduce regional variants, something that has continued ever since. Since I have very little experience with the Alolan games, I haven't really gotten a chance to use them all, until this video.
Using only the alolan variants, I attempted to complete a hardcore nuzlocke or Ultra Moon, lets see how it goes!

I agree with you Joe Alolan Ninetails is my favorite Alolan variant.
This is such a fun run idea. And the video turned out great
I like alolan raichu the best, its one of my favs, bc when i played moon for the first time i picked it up and it did so much of the heavy lifting and i love its design
Alolan raichu is pretty cool, I just wish his ability weren’t so crappy in most cases
@@NuzlockeJoe it doesnt really suck but if you cant set up electric terrain it doesnt do anything but its already fast an strong
To the surprise of no one my favorite Alolan form is a toss up between Sandslash and Marowak. I like em’ all honestly, even long neck Exeggutor, but those two especially come to mind.
This was a great run! I think the only thing I didn't like about it, was the fact, that you SOS-Chained for the Hidden Ability from Alolan Vulpix instead of catching the first Vulpix you get. But that's just a small nitpick lmao
Yeah I get that. I know it’s sometimes looked down on in a nuzlocke to do SOS chain, but I really wanted a snow warning ninetails
I've never really done a nuzlucke in usum, are there specific rules regarding sos chains?
Nah disagree. Much prefer taking liberties to make a run more fun or interesting to watch rather than following rules super strictly. But all personal opinion… each to their own… etc.
@@Clodnesia I wouldn't really say "specific Rules". There's the Standart-Rule, that you can just catch the first Pokemon you encounter on each route. Using SOS-Chaining would mean, that you encounter more Pokemon until you get one that has an Ability you want. But that's not really the point of a Nuzlocke. Obviously you can play with whatever ruleset you want at the end, but SOS-Chains are kinda agains the First-Encounter-Rule in my eyes
@@clanedogg1 Yeah, at the end everyone can play with whatever ruleset they want. Not trying to gatekeep, it's just my personal opinion. The Video itself was great, no doub!
I'm not sure diglett would've been useful, despite being a steel type, alolan diglett (or at least every time that I've used it) actually has bad defense 😅
Only issue I had was the use of butterfree and chaining the hidden ability. However, its your nuzlocke and your rules. Always love seeing people going back to the Alola region
Yeah I know many people frown on that, since technically SOS chaining is not your first encounter, but I figured if I was gonna use alolan ninetails, I was gonna do it right.
Great video
Favorite Alolan Form is Ninetales
Would love PLA Hisuian only as have the best variants overall imo
Can also count Kleavor and Sneasaler as variants as well as Basculegion
The reason why Hawlucha outspeed Raichu is that Hawlucha has a higher base speed at 118 and Raichu has 110. This is why I check the stats on every Pokemon I fight before the battle.
That's true, but my raichu was decently fast, and had enough speed EVs to outspeed a regular hawlucha. Of course, that assumes he doesnt have a speed nature, or EVs himself which turned out to NOT be true...
What a fun run!, and I loved the Hawaiian names on all the Pokemon, that was a nice touch. I don't know if you've done one, but it would be cool to see a Sword and Shield Nuzlocke with Galarian forms and evos.
You're the first person to recognize the names!
To be fair, I didn't know Hawaiian and had to look it all up, but I'm glad someone got it!
@@NuzlockeJoe yeah idk Hawaiian either, but I figured that since they all sounded familiar, and judging by the theme of the video, it was very fitting, so nice job on that.
Favorite Alolan form is probably Marowak - such a sick design
Yeah Marie am design is pretty awesome
Great video buddy, keep it up
Alolan Ninetails is easily my favorite of the bunch, but Alolan Persian is pretty good at face tanking attacks
Can't disagree with any of that!
Unpopular opinion but Alolan Marowak is hella lit
First time was Alolan Ninetails, I even bred a 5IV one for my eventual play through of the second half of the SV DLC. But surprisingly, my Spanish Alolan Muk came in quite handy in those SV raids. Has a weird nickname of Donpepes but he's cool.
Easiest for me is Alolan Raichu which will be getting a video *wink wink* very soon, which for SOME REASON you didn't get a Pichu for in the first grass patch. Glad you got it later.
I could have for sure, but at the start I hadn't yet decided if I was going to allow piichu or pikachu at the begining, since he is not an alolan form. I eventually did though, and could have gotten one at the very start. But it all worked out.
@@NuzlockeJoe Yeah, shame what happened later though. Oy.
Loved playing moon and sun version with my wife she was so happy when i buyed her the games
My favourite is Alolan Sandslash it is so cool pun attended
You should of got a pichu during the tutorial where the time of day doesn't change.
That's what I said. I was shocked he didn't get a Pichu.
Yeah I could have, but initially I wanted to only use alolan forms of pokemon. Meaning I could only get piichu once I had a thunderstone, but I realized the first kahuna battle would have been horrible without pika.
@@NuzlockeJoe Glad you realized.
Alola Ninetales is my fav!
Good taste!
Man I'm so mad I wasn't subbed to you on my phones youtube acc but subbed to you on all of my accounts now hell ye
Well thanks for the extra sub!
I'll be honest I don't like the Alola games. But I like your videos enough to watch them anyways
I’ve actually come to like them. Though there are a lot of cutscenes and they take a while
alolan exeggutor is my favorite alolan form. like its a dragon.
He is certainly the most…. Unique
….hawlucha probably had a speed boosting nature
Yeah probably. Lame
Alolan ninetales is my favorite
Ninetails, the rest aren't real.
Shiny Alolan Pixies will always stay my favorites. Don't care half as much about Alolan Tails though
How dare you!
@NuzlockeJoe it is beauty, and it is grace, but it is not as precious as Alolan Pixies in my eyes
I prefer Alolan Vulpix (although I love them both equally), but I like Kantonian Ninetails more...
Maybe it's because Alolan Ninetails' hair is all wavy and doing that Princess Celestia thing, but Kantonian just keeps it nice and tidy
also Alolan Meowth is...kinda cute...maybe because it's just a grey meowth? (Alolan Persian on the other hand, looks more like hapsburg Persian with that weird head shape)
Yeah I’m not sure what happened to Persian weird pear head. But fur coat is sick!
@@NuzlockeJoeIf I’m remembering right The rounder head is supposed to pay homage to species of cat in Hawaii.
Aaaand one more for the algorithm :)
Did you factor in opposing Pokémon's EVs and natures? That could be a reason why some of your damage/speed calcs were off.
No I didn't, and I'm sure that's where it went wrong. I typically use the Bulbapedia walkthrough for my runs, because I like the layout and format, but it does NOT have EV or nature information for opposing pokemon.
My favorite Alolan form is, by far, Rattata and Raticate. I genuinely adore them lol
In that case, I'm sorry you didnt get to see that much of the rat. If he had had guts, I know he would have been a staple on my team. I'm obsessed with that ability
@@NuzlockeJoe it’s all good, that’s about how that goes without that ability lol but yea no doubt, guts is such a good ability. I’m running Kantonian guts Raticate in White 2 right now and it’s just a monster
My favorite is Alolan Sandslash
Mine's raichu. I love it's typing and it's a literal surfing pikachu xD. Mind you It's more because of it's typing because design wise 100% marowak.
The psychic typing is a great addition
Have you done the rainbow team rocket section?
I haven’t done any of the post game in Alola actually. Since I’ve only played these games for this channel, I never got around to it
@@NuzlockeJoe yeah not many people do them in the ultra games runs on TH-cam. I am guessing it would be very time consuming
I like alolan Rattata, it looks like one of my rats
I'm fine with alolan rattata, but the fat cheeck raticate does not sit well with me for some reason.
He can still get alolan zigzagoon
Do you mean galarian zigzagoon?
Though not official, he could have kept the Litten as an Alolan Sprigatito/Meowscarada
Also, one can argue that Necrozma can be an Alolan Kuryem due to sharing the ability to absorb (fuse with) the box art legendaries
I guess Silvally can be considered an Alolan Arceus, but it's not available till the post game anyways
