Grass types are very abundant and often thought of as being the worst of the three starter types. With that said, what if we got access to the full spectrum of Grass encounters in Pokemon Platinum... could they beat the game's hardest challenge - a hardcore nuzlocke with only Grass types?

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 Platinum Hardcore Nuzlocke with only Grass types? No items and no overleveling!

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 importing Pokémon, Items, etc.

Does it come with leaked military docs? Lmao
For future reference, Bluk berry for natural gift has 70 BP and can be gotten on multiple routes before any mandatory scizors has to be dealt with, and in general unless you need the hp on a pokemon for later in a fight, you probably shouldn't be chancing freeze if it would end up resulting in a wipe. Otherwise, I'd probably use substitute on Fantina's duskull since AI can't really handle it that well in gen 4 in specific (sometimes even throwing status moves 1-2 turns after it is up)
Bring true power series Back!!
Not sure if you ever have done this ; but I think a video explaining ev training and natures would be awesome for everyone

Cherrim: "My job here is done."
Silph: "But you didn't do anything."
Cherrim: *leaves*
Provided you can keep them around long enough to evolve, Sinnoh actually has some monstrously powerful Grass types.
Then unova walks in😅
Thats why I love sinnoh
Also I love roserade
@@xandernorwood7383I mean let’s be honest, Black and White 2 is the absolute peak of modern game mechanics, lack of a gimmick mechanic, and great Pokédex. In my opinion, without the nostalgia of other gens, it’s the gold standard of games
@@DarkLobster69 If it had the fairy-type, I would agree that Gen 5 would be peak modern battle mechanics, without any gimmick.
I do agree on the pokedex being very strong though, especially for grass types. Lilligant, Whimsicott, Ferrothorn and especially Amoonguss continue to be staples in competitive. Gen 5 pokemon age well for some reason.
Silph and Platinum is a perfect combination on a Sunday
0:20 grass types are actually really good in competitive because they’re immune to some pretty important status moves like spore. That’s why in gen 9 VGC Tera grass is really popular
Grass type is good, grass mons aren't really. We have some outliers like Rilaboom and Amoongus, but for the most part you're better off using terra grass on a non grass mon like you said.
It's like bug. Bug type suckd, bug mons don't. Volcarona and Scizor are a great example.
Turtwig and Budew's Natures made me laugh so hard! Glad to have you back
I can just imagine Louie staring down at Milotic's corpse after that climactic strike, flexing in a strongman pose, then falling back as he dies with a smile on his face.
I actually jokingly thought how cursed you would be if you got an adamant budew after I saw the modest nature Turtwig! Died laughing when it actually happened 🤣🤣
I thought the same thing! I was like, watch it be Roserade that gets it or one that is a special attacker lol.
Hey Silph, what're your thoughts on doing an "Under used"/"Never used" pokemon Nuzlocke? I think having a run focusing on any types but underused representatives would be super cool actually
FlygonHG does the snaplock, which works like that, banning the better half of the game. Would love Silph to do his own version or the same
Would love a nuzlocke of only pokemon with
Silph touches Grass.
When I saw Leafeon I was excited! a physical bulky grass type, only to learn that his only physical grass move he learns is at LEVEL 71
No you can teach it razor leaf at 16 or with a heart scale! Plus if it’s not 71 by the time you beat the game, in the fight area a move tutor can teach seed bomb a 80 powered physical grass move
razor leaf 💀
@@matthewhyman2208 it’s your only decent physical grass move until you can get leaf blade or seed bomb.
@matthewhyman2208 razor leaf is a decent physical grass type move plus it has the high crit ratio so it's really nothing to scoff at. Especially considering how common crits usually land in Platinum in particular.
@@alexpink3204 I swear platinum, black/white and fire red/leaf green had extreme high rolls on crits and status conditions 🤣 like damn do all the Pokémon here have super luck or serene grace?
That Drapion vs Torterra RNG was insane
The Torterra has most likely a near 31 Defense IV or Aaron's Drapion has an attack-lowering nature. It shouldn't have survived.
Oh this made my day! Love your content, Silph. You have been missed!
Just as I was coming to check if you had uploaded, here you are. Thank you for making my Sunday better with my favorite type and game! 😄
Ayy awesome to hear we could nail both favorites! Appreciate the support Taylor :D
Cherrim making it through doing essentially nothing since Gym 3 😂
I'd like to point out that Ikki actually landed two back-to-back crits against Skuntank, despite Bug Bite having no boosted crit rate, while also dodging Night Slash crits, which DOES have boosted Crit rates.
Legend is right, Ikki came in clutch.
Fun fact. At 12:00 facing the Zubat, you were hoping to make him flinch, but in reality, Zubat and its evolutionary line has the ability inner focus, where it can’t flinch at all.
Damn that ice fang from drapion, after a crit. Plus a freeze but immediate thaw out. What a sequence!!! Lol wow
Great challenge run video as always… I like how Silph includes the little gimmicks and tricks like finding the hidden dawn stone and telling us about yache berries on wild starly etc… Love learning new things about the older gen games. Brings it more playability. Thanks silph. Left the video a like!
I only pick the grass type starter if I know I have options for fire types later on. Grass and water types are a dime a dozen.
I knew I would see your post today, I just felt it! This is gonna be one of the best playthoughs ever, I tried it twice already and only made it to the 4th gym
Silph 26:16 in Byron's Steelix fight I think the reason Steelix survived Tangrowth's Solar beam is because Steelix used sandstorm which raises the special defense of steel, ground and rock types.
Sandstorm only boosts rock types Sp.D, it does however cut Solarbeam's strength in half.
@@usexguyb I stand corrected, thank you for the info.
Wow! What a fun video. Grass is always a tough typing to do a nuzlocke with.
Amazing run. And I gotta say that those 2 moments got me: the pokédex one and the coffin dance. So damn funny lol
It's not every day someone uses the grass type for a nuzlocke... but when it's Silph I know it'll be a good one. Especially since he didn't use any low-hanging fruit (see what I did there?) about the type being 'awful.' Grass is probbably my second-favorite type.
I like how we can judge if something is good or bad by whether Silph says “boy oh boy” or “man oh man”. Another great video Silph ❤️
Glad to have you back Silph missed your updates
Glad to see you back! I hope you enjoyed your much needed vacation silph, you flygon and antlerboy are my favorite nuzlockers!
I was just thinking yesterday...I hope Silph posts again soon because it's been a minute. I've been at work all day waiting to watch this. Thanks, Silph. Another brilliant run. Looking forward to the next one.
The crap around the starting town is snow. Sinnoh is based on northern Japan where it gets super cold with dozens of feet of snow on the ground in winter. It's why Lucas and Dawn are wearing heavy coats with scarves in Platinum; the season changed. (And before BW would come along with actual seasons too)
You can also reroll the genders, natures and IVs of honey tree pokemon by soft-resetting. Not the species though.
Starter pokemon are all considered cute for Amity Square. That place is really glitchy in BDSP. It cloned my Pachirisu 😮
Toxicroak is 2x weak to ground, not 4x. It's poison/fighting.
The Universal Pokemon Randomizer has a setting to skip to Cyrus at the end of the Distortion World instead of making you go through it all.
Can never go wrong getting an eveeloution on your team in a nuzlocke. Leafeon is a tanky beast. Also Louie is the goat, rest well sweet prince.
I would love to see another hardcore Nuzlocke of gen 9, but completing all 3 major storylines + Area 0. I’m doing a hardcore normal type run of this and man it’s challenging, the team star bases don’t mess around.
That special def. WAS INSANE
Missed ya Silph, glad to see my favourite Nuzlocker is back.
Welcome back, Silph! You've been sorely missed. Hope your vacation was a good one! Well done on this one, it was very close at some points, but congrats on clearing another very tough challenge!
Welcome Back Silph ❤
Welcome back Silph, this is what we needed to end the summer!
That nuzlocke was SO FULL of close call. Truly nerve-wracking. What a great video. Thank you!
26:19 because sandstorm halves the power of solar beam
This video is straight up fun-as always, Silph!
Grass-types have always had some really unique and interesting aesthetics throughout Pokémon and nowhere is that better exemplified than the starters. Every generation has basically nailed it with their Grass starters. Sure, Meganium is kinda hum-drum and Chesnaught is sadly mostly forgotten compared to a certain frog and fox on that gen, but aside from those cases all the Grass starters are amazingly designed and well-thought out in terms of final evolution, typing, stat spread and extra forms.
There is a setting on most randomisers to skip the distortion world, I think it’s called quick distortion word or something like that.
Cherrim did good in that one battle and was like okay I did my part, y’all got this?
A nuzlocke in DPPt is always a pleasure to watch
Here I was, excited to see someone use a Carnivine... Only to have my dreams quashed.
I thought that the Grass-type was a flimsy one, but you really put in the work! You even manhandled the Fire-type Elite Four member Flint and took out his team like flaming garbage! Mad respect! 😁
thank you for putting it in the folder on the same day! I have to have the videos on loop so sometimes I miss new episodes but I am not! Yay!
After binge watching all of your Nuzlockes, I finally subscribed! Great content!
Oof, who knew that a Platinum Grass run would be as painful as a Grass run in Johto. Thankfully Silph pulled through despite all the painful close calls and losses near the end.
Thank the LORD someone finally said it. The Pokémon TCG video game was TOOOO good. 10/10 highly recommend!
It's a good day when Silph uploads
wormadam is so slept on and versatile 😭
Hey Silph I've been catching up on your content over the past couple of weeks and I am liking everything I see! It's been a minute since I've watched you because of wanting to catch up on other RUclipsrs on my list of people I watch regularly. The content has been amazing and I can't wait to see what's going to happen in the future. Also, if possible, please give us an update about your True Power project!! I miss the series so much and it is my favorite series and content you have ever done on the channel. I really miss the videos where you break it down for everyone on how you decided what everyone's True Power was it was awesome. Again, if possible, please give us an update about True Power. Me and many others miss it so much we can't wait for it to return. Keep up the amazing pokemon runs as well they are fun to watch and to hear your commentary. Maybe you could even expand into other pokemon series like Pokemon Mystery Dungeon and give some mono type runs in those games a try. Regardless, keep up your amazing work and I'll see you next time!!
Seeing Leafeon get some love makes me so happy. Leafeon is my favorite ❤
19:01 brought a tear to my eye😢. Such a beautiful love story.
Heyo :) i was getting worried cuz no upload in a month. Glad to see you back
Duuude i forgot all about brandon falls lol great video like always and i love seeing appreciation for mons like wormadam. Also, i think the name Bebe is pronounced like "Bay Bay" lol
Finally, I've been waiting for your new video!!
Just wanna tell you that I really enjoy the work you put into your scripts, it’s always detailed and entertaining :) Ty
Welcome back Silph, Also best game for grass starter. Always been my favorite of the 3
Silphspectre is playing again! I mean congratulations for the engagement but that was a big break, man!
That cherrim is like that one guy in every group project. You know who you are.
Just had a crazy day at work. Seeing you posted and I have this to watch made my day.
Shere is a bulky legend. Took a mach punch like a champ.
If I remember correctly, Solar Beam's potency is halved when the weather is hail, sandstorm or fog. That's why it didn't KO the Steelix, even with the choice specs.
thanks for the video waited for that video just love ur commentary on those video made my day!
Occa berry + rock polish was sick, great run
Hell yeahhh glad to see your back silph ✊🏽
I don’t know if you will see this but, you are the best Pokémon RUclipsr ever created.
Bro just looked today to make sure I wasn’t missing uploads! 😂 Glad to see ya!
New Silph nuzlocke video dropped, blessed sunday
awesome a new vid, silph already missed your vids, this is awesome!
Pokemon trading card game was soooo much fun to play when i was a kid on the Gameboy
The Giga Drain sweep being followed IMMEDIATELY by an Earthquake sweep had me yelling at the screen like a dad watching NFL. This is what I imagine being a sportsball fan is like. STAB SWEEP STAB SWEEP STAB SWEEP!
Barry be straight up bullying grass types tho 🔥💀
I was going through a withdrawel for your vids. I always look forward to them no matter what gen.
Leafeon is one of my favourite Pokémon, so it feels great to see it kick ass!
Just woke up and then see this! Cheers for the awesome content 👍
Great content Silph!
Just dont make us wait so long for the next video 😅
I feel you about the $4000 AC, our roof is leaking and we're in need of a new roof. There goes $23,000. Oh yeah where it leaked our dry wall has moisture damage. Don't know how much that will cost yet. :( Being a homeowner if fun, yay.
44:49 lol 😂 should have switch sac’d instead of the starter but gg
oh oh I've done this one before! Except it wasn't a hardcore nuzlocke. Or even a nuzlocke for that matter. And I got rekt. You're really good at this game
Awesome video!! Can’t wait to watch the rest 😄
you know, if you ever run out of these challenges to do, you should start trying to complete games using a Gym leaders team (using the same Pokemon a Gym leader of your choice would have)
Yeah my man! Your back. I'm happy
Been missing your uploada they make my day
it might be a cool run idea to do Pokemon who got new evolutions in Sinnoh like weavile, electivire, lickilicki. I’m betting it would be pretty easy but it’d give some love to some forgotten gen 4 evos
;3;7 RIP Louie, that was one of the most goated Abomasnow performances Ive ever seen.
Good run, and a lot of tough battles… just one thing I’m pretty sure you should always have ice sharded the garchomp bc it’s probably certain k.o. after hail? Abomasnow death is probably a wipe otherwise
Was missing your videos man. Glad to know you are there and hopefuly doing fine!
The first 14 seconds of the video already deserve a like. Grass gang let's go!
Thank goodness for a Pokémon’s second type
As soon as you won I was like that’s crazy Cherrim rode the bench the whole league. As soon as I said that you made the cherrim free pass joke I was like that’s wild he just said thatttttt.
I love your challenge Videos You're so entertained ❤😅
Finally, love this. Time to enjoy
Ahhh~ Jungle Book naming theme. Very nice. It took me till Sher to realize it. X"D
Did Flint dirty on that one
I like when you do grass/bug nuzlocke, good luck.
Yaaaay Silph is back !
Leafeon: Leaf
infernape: *Mach punchs*
Leafeon: *Grins with base def stat of 130 and proceeds to use the power of friendship to defeat Infernape*
Ah Yes, Pokemon logic
