- I beat Pokémon Blaze Black 2 REDUX as a hardcore Nuzlocke. This was a lot of fun and incredibly difficult and took me almost a month to complete. (not what the title says)
You can help pay my tuition here! Anything helps! streamelements.com/docznick/tip
I stream live on Twitch, so come check me out!!

Nuzlocke Ruleset:
1. If a Pokémon faints, then it must be permanently boxed.
2. I can only catch the first encounter on each Route.
3. No bag items in battle, except for pokéballs. (Held items are allowed)
4. Must be played on "Set" battle mode.
5. Cannot level over the next gym leader/elite 4's highest level pokémon.
Leave a comment if you think I could have done something better, or if you have an idea of what future challenges I should do.

Dreyano is an absolute madman. Definitely revolutionized gen 5 and 2D pokemon beyond what anyone would've expected.
GF needs to hire Drayano for any and all remakes.
If HE can find the space in your game to mod all this in, then so can your damned company.
@@perrycarters3113 they seem to be against any sort of challenge curve nowadays. i am do glad for the modding community though.
@@perrycarters3113The game is designed for children with zero attention span, who'll drop the game if they encounter the slightest bit of challenge.
the most underrated mon I never see people use in redux is altaria. its basically its mega version except against ai and not humans its really easy to get off cotton guard and dragon dance making it completely broken in battles where the opponents lead cant hurt it.
ie draiden. lead it, cotton guard and roost until youre max defense, dragon dance, then sweep
Hard agree on this. Altaria is INCREDIBLE in this game. It has so much tech. Having a chance to carry Cloud Nine ability is just the icing on top too.
setup is kinda broken so the best players tend to play without it.
So true. It’s type combo is insane. Also Mismagius is insane both for Drayden and for every member of the Elite four, AND Iris. If you get one, you’re in much better shape than someone who didn’t
Meganium is noteworthy as well. Very bulky and tons of recovery to take you through the midgamd
Colress's Challenge mode team is made entirely out of Pokémon who purely exist for Pokéstar Studios movies. I know this because I'm in the minority who actually LIKES Pokéstar Studios.
I love hearing the planning for each fight, I appreciate the video, made my night for sure. Thank you so much!!!
I was waiting for this video. The redux version of Blaze Black 2 seem really good
Also, this rom hack is so cool. Nuzlockes of these extremely hard rom hacks are easily the best videos on any Pokemon channel, hands down. Thanks for the great content
I AM PLAYING AN ORIGINAL OUTDATED VERSION. This is not a blind nuzlocke, though it was not a completely documented run either. The documentation I used only contains the important trainers (gym leaders, mini-bosses and rivals) which I showed onscreen for you guys to see as well. Other than that, the majority of the game was played in a blind sense. There was no knowledge of any of the other trainers (since the game's own documents don't even provide that for you). docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1OdIXfIuYPZUr2zBO4MWOapOKfEEgujmCr_JvBQXZqdQ/edit#gid=2013499421
this is clearer then other docs doesn't have pictures or something
thnx for this
a other thing if u do the damage calculator what iv and ev u give the opponents pokemon ?
did you use the evless version?
you should blind nuzlocke, the planned out ones are always less impressive imo
I’ve been looking everywhere for this. thank you so much
Good to see you back Nick! Been missing your videos 😁
the route 7 colress fight uses the fakemons used in the pokestar studios movies, and as someone who was always interested in them back in the day this fight brings back good memories
bro your level of thinking and planning is beyond any other nuzlocke youtuber I have ever seen, have to sub
awesome been waiting for another vid from you
The trick room into trick room from Caitlyn must be one of the funniest things I have ever seen in a nuzlocke like what the hell
She hadn't had her coffee yet, give her a break
Zoroark maintaining its Disguise for the entire Caitlin fight was incredible.
The Mismagius Fairy/Ghost typing is so OP in just about every Pokemon game. Being an incredible special attacker given fairy typing is insane already. Immune to dragon/normal/fighting, only weak to Ghost and Steel, and it can take care of other Ghost types no problem. An absolute monster that's even better than the Ghost/Steel type combination.
Also immune to ground because of levitate
Also not being weak to poison because the Ghost typing cancels it out.
@@BananaManV5 except levitate got replaced by infiltrator, super laaaaaammmeee.
I tried doing this game as my first hardcore nuzlocke and I couldn’t make it past gym 2 without overleveling my pokemon, I feel so sad. ggwp to you sir!
your nicknames are funny as hell man. when I saw morbius I was on the floor
That definitely was a nickname of all time
While not a nuzlocke, I went with Emboar for Volt White 2 Redux and it is a BEAST: now it's a Fire-Ground type with Mold Breaker and STAB Earthquake and Flare Blitz, as well as being able to use no-recoil Wild Charge. Almost nothing could stand against my Roadhog.
nah bro you're just too good
I love how there isn’t an obviously better starter choice in this rom, there’s a way to play with every option
I can't seem to get past the double battle fight in the sewers in hardcore Nuzelocke and it doesn't matter which encounters I get. The combo of Golbat always getting flinches and Granbull intimidating and hitting very hard is 100 times harder than gym leaders. It's not even in challenge mode and this fight is insanely hard. In the few videos I have seen about this romhack, the fight I am talking about is always skipped like it's nothing. I basically obliterated the two first gym leaders to lose against team plasma grunts for 5 attempts in a row.
The doc is back
This game was so fun.
Scrappy Kanga makes Shauntel a Joke, beats Grimms Sharpedo, Iris's Zam and Latios.
Really crazy E4 mon i havnt seen used by anyone online.
ive been here through your first video
Out of curiosity, can someone tell me why some of the AI teams have weird natures i.e. Iris's Dragonite and Hydreigon
its randomized I'm fairly sure
Idk about Gen 5 but in Gen 4 you cannot determine the AI‘s exact stats, you can only set a „difficulty level“ for the mon between 0 and 200 and that determines its IVs and nature
Is this game also has a EV training daycare like renegade platinum???
Please tell me.
@@leviuchiha6214 Yes. EV and Level Trainer located in PWT
Well done brobro.
So no ones going to talk about the shiny corsola? Okay. But fr great video!!
it's a gift Pokemon
As an Italian living in Brescia, reading Campari fills me with joy
i have yet to get passed weather team since redux release. After this much time i see this kid LITERALLY get every good encounter makes me discount hi validity on random encounters
I find it interesting that DocZ and PokemonChallenges have the exact opposite definitions of the Snowball Effect. I tend to agree more with PChal's assertion of problems becoming greater than they normally would be based on the loss of a niche and powerful Pokemon, but I understand how DocZ reached his understanding of the term. But to be fair, working off DocZ's definition, I don't think pre-Burgh is when you reach that point in Redux. But again, there are some cracked encounters that can carry you through like the Relic Passage encounters, a Zubat in the Sewers, or a good Darm/Krook on Route 4. All are game changing encounters that have the potential to greatly impact the quality of a run.
Yooo look at this man’s drip!!!
Blaze Black 2 Redux was my first "hacked" or modified pokemon game, and damn it was a new experience.
Only playing on easy mode since I ain't no good player, and even then I still find it difficult to team swipe even with my pokemon having a decent level gap.
honestly I don't blame you but pretty sure all easy mode does is lower levels.
I never realize I wasn’t subbed to this channel.
Time to remedy that
Underrated version of pchal
I don't know if I've said it before, but the next romhack you should tackle is Buffel's Catch Em All/Difficult mod of Emerald that they call Inclement Emerald. At least, whenever it gets the next major update
Having played it myself (not as a Nuzlocke) and having seen many others try to Nuzlocke it, it's just not a fun Nuzlocke challenge in any sense of the word. Every trainer fight is a potential run killer in places like the Magma Hideout, every single one needs planning, and because of the encounter variance on each route, there's just no way you can get any kind of consistency in any run. It means you have to basically start from scratch on every single run, which sounds fine, but from a planning perspective, is just so anti-fun.
Take RenPlat for example; for the first gym, you can always guarantee a Geodude encounter, and always guarantee a Turtwig before it as well as your starter. That makes the first gym's planning pretty easy, but also with some encounter variance on other routes that can make it more easy (if you get a Riolu, for example). That level of challenge is good for a Nuzlocke - having some encounters guaranteed with others that can make it easier, at which point, losing mons comes down to skill (and a little bit of luck).
@@tylersmith3533 sounds like emerald kaizo which was a smash hit. Albeit incredibly demanding on the nuzlocker, like you said, but a hit nonetheless.
@@Downypour Emerald Kaizo was a superb hit, yes. The big difference is that your encounters are super limited in EK in terms of being able to plan around certain encounters being guaranteed, others being good chances, and the encounter tables seem to have had some genuine thought applied to them.
My ONLY complaint (As I'm currently playing through this) Is a way to check IV's and EV's and earlier ways to train said EV's or boost IV's. Its not too crazy of a letdown but just my only complaint. I've loved it so far
Good job bruh
you're a legend
11:56 Does Joltik also learn Discharge at 57? If it learns it earlier than that, you could've just delayed evolution
56
the caitlin fight was really impressive
Tou are a god at pokemon hardcore
2:15 you have 6 encounters before 1st gym if you back with egg to the asperia gate
Not true. The egg's encounter is based on where you hatch it and the next free area is I belive Pokestar Studios
@@jakesullivan3017 every gate is free area in gen5 games if you dont belive go and check
@@jakesullivan3017 can confirm that the gates are indeed seperate areas.
@@jakesullivan3017 Wrong. Eggs are static encounters.
@@jakesullivan3017you can hatch that egg in aspercia city gym before fighting the gym trainers
I am honestly not a fan of the double/triple battles but these movepool, typing-/stat/ability updates are really cool to see
just play on normal mode then, the teams are not THAT bad but for most battles challenge mode just raises levels anyways. I'm guessing the game isn't really that hard after the "snowball" point he mentioned, because before that the game is hard in normal mode anyway. If you don't believe me try fighting against cheren's freaking work up flail munchlax.
Is the full stream of this available anywhere? Only goes back a month on your twitch channel. :( I’m subbed on both here and twitch and love your content.
Yo new upload 🎉
Please explain what we gotta do In that fight in Route 9 plz!! I been stuck on the spot for the past 2 weeks and I can't enter skyla gym!
My friends walked in around the time of the Gyarados analogy ☠️
This man needs to play radical red
Mr. Magius is the best name for a male mismagius and I will be stealing it
Hey man, may I be obliged to ask, what shader setting you used?
love your hair icl
Ive beaten blaze black 2 too!
**after 25 hours without nuzlocke rules!!**
How.
Is blaze black 2 has EV training daycare like renegade platinum???
Please tell me.
What the fhúck is nuzlocke?
Well done.
this game was very fun, if you played on challenge mode and as a nuzlocke then fair play
He is playing challenge mode if you look at the gym leaders' teams
@@Rhyster yh i know, im just saying this game is pretty difficult, not as hard as some other rom hacks but still challenging
Are you using Desmume emulator or melonDS? If so can you post your settings, I have been trying to make the original volt white/ blaze black work on melonDS but they are not working on the newer version and I dont want to use Desmume
Are you planning on attempting emerald kaizo?
One of the greatest pokemon players of our generation
@@skyelussion4306 who the fuck is pchal lol
I mean when you're overleveled for every non gym leader battle (Colress, etc) and you read the documentation and prepare exactly then are you really good?
One of the best Nuzzlocke players.
I don't think he holds a candle to smogon playsers/VGC players in pvp
@@mangosteak tbf, those are completely different things, my guy
@@slipperysnake3822 try beating vintage white
If you do it try emerald Kaizo
Then come back to me and say it was easy
did you hack in any rare candies that made the grinding process quicker, and if so can I have the action reply code? Much apprenticed!
Doc:could i interest you in a gen 5 nuzlocke?
i cant tell if the version i found off ebay is the normal blaze black and volt white 2 someone downloaded them onto the same ds cartridge and on the title screen it shows off the default name but in my normal run but Burgh's syther kept kicking my butt i had to get my entire team to level 33 just to get past his gym because that bloody flying gem boosted wing attack kept one shotting the Ace of my team.
edit here: its the normal blaze black and volt white 2 during my second starter choice i received a cyndaquil because my ds time was set to an autumn month
Do a shiny hardcore nuzlocke on challenge mode
Just played it and Mismagius is so f'ing broken with draining kiss and nasty plot
Hi Docz love your vids and i wanna do nuzlockes that u do by myself but i cant find a good site or something to check the encouter list and trainer battle list
can u tell me wich site[s] ur using cause cant find any of those and not only for blaze black 2 redux
hope u see this and u can help me xD
@@solgaleogolem5481 okay but why can't I open those documents
How are u running your games ? I want to play ds games but idk how to, if u could explain that would be cool.
He uses an emulator I'm sure. The best one is desmume, all you need to do is somehow get the rom for the game and load it into the emulator. For this hack specifically you'll need to patch the rom, but that is described in the documentation. Legally you'll need to own the game to get the rom, but you can find it for free online if you are ok with piracy
I dare you beat Steven/Wallace. Also, beat both White Treehollow/Black City
How did you know the level you need for certain encounter ? I cant find good documentation for this.
How do you get your EVs in this game and edge your mons? When I put a Pokémon with an illegal ability (eg tepig in this game has sheer force) into pkhex, it will set the ability back to blaze?
You add a text doc to ‘start pkHax exit 0’ and change it to a .bat file in the same folder
Do emerald kaizo hardcore nuzlocke next
this confuses me because the gym leader teams in this video were much larger than that when i played earlier today
Couldn’t have clicked faster on this
I'm really curious where you decided to get the Audino. Since you have a Castelia and a Complex encounter. Did you skip Route 19 or 20?
Complex is split into two by the game
@@DocZ Fire! thanks dude. I enjoy the content!
17:11 I think thawing with fire moves may have only been a gen 4 mechanic
Can someone please explain to me wtf Colress' team is w that F-00, blimp, and big ass tyranitar

have you tried emerald kaizo yet?

28:45 How did you access the PC directly from there?
It is not an easy rom hack by any means, you're just very good
Yea but he damage calced and isnt going in blind
Definitely not easy, but if you plan ahead it’s not crazy.
@@charmanderfan6945 Yeah, I know he's extremely thorough with calcs and documentation. What is he using for that stuff and can you somehow sync that up with DesMuMe (or the rom?), so you won't have to manually enter everything into the calc?
@@Lonewulf321 oh I know it's not that crazy, but it's definitely tough and imo you need to get lucky with your encounters a lot. Roxy, as an example, can be a nightmare without any good encounters in my experience
@@Matfridt well it’s like he said in the video, early game is a nightmare.
It’s hard to be prepared when you have nothing. After that it’s not crazy anymore .
I thought it has pretty decent balance
I honestly need help with just a norm play threw of blaze black 2
Where are the docs for level up learnsets, cuz either I can't find accurate ones or there is no indication that at the very least joltik wouldn't get discharge at lower level than the cap
Docs should come with the rom, but test it for yourself. Delay Joltik until 55 and see for yourself. I think the doc says 56.
how are you accessing your boxes in the wild at 28:48? Is this apart of the rom or some other mod?

Guys, please help, im at my wit's end - im in m='mistralton and I cant seem to get the gym to open. I went to the tower, cleared it and rung the bell, but the guy in front of the door still blocks the entrance. Am I missing sth?
You should play radical red!
Du de, you should try the NeoX hackroom
play an extreme randomiser so u cannot predict anything
Is there any additional map here?
I'm not interested in doing a nuzlocke myself but do I need to worry about ev/iv training for a more casual run through these rom hacks?
Not at all. You CAN, but I'm mkre than halfway into Blaze Black Redux, and those never once came up. Movesets and typing are a bigger deal
17:55 prerty sure that emboar has sheer force and not reckless
can you obtain MT and Mt2 post game?
I got my Volt White 2 a few months ago and it's way different from yours, it doesn't even have the fairy typing
It has the starter gifting
Hoenn Gym Leaders
Steven Wallace double battle
Iris got the Eon Duo
Ghetsis has Genesect
Hilda and Hilbert can be battle
You can catch the Unova Starters
You can catch the Eevolutions
You can catch every Legendary and Mythical Pokemon

where can you get these boss teams in the nice spreadsheet format like that? the layout in the docs is awful
I wish you were wrong but sadly it's true
You skipped the part of fainting the Masquerain. How did you defeat it?
How did you changed your ivysaurs ability ?
The game itself has it changed
I lost in the upgrade stats applying both classic and complete.i want speed boost blaziken but stats complete but ability classic
10:06 . For conform Ground move Bro . 😀
Just commenting for the algorithm
What's the best emulator to play this on?
Yeah… it’s an easy game… I mainly swept every gym with Silk Scarf Lopunny with Strength and Power-Up Punch
Real question, do you use it because you like it or just because It's good in the game ? As I can understand a meta in competitive multiplayer, I don't get the point using "metamons" in a solo game even if It's harder, really, just trying to understand here. Overall, the more I watch nuzlocke, the more I see more or less OU teams and I'm really trying my best understanding why some people are doing that on a solo game against "hard" bots and how they get the fun out of it instead of using pokémons that they actually like even if they're not very good and juste enjoying the trip. Anyway, from my part I'm playing with the Evless version in Challenge mode, dunno if It's that much harder but you should try it out if you haven't (Skyla was painful tho')
@@Alfxyizz Honestly, just cuz I like it (also helps that it was pretty good). That said, I used a team of Pokémon that I liked. I got a Litwick early game from the egg and Ally Switch served me well in numerous gyms.
It did it on attempt 1 as well, but I had a lot of deaths TBH.
I’m doing a randomized run now, I have to say it’s more fun. At least for me.
@@LukasArailiys Oh okay, thanks for your answer :)
That's because u allowed set up lmao
could someone tell me what’s different between blaze black 2 and blaze black 2 redux?
Fairy type is a major one
at 6:49 you use the pc box in the the gym. how? I'm guessing a secondary rom patch
