Normal types are super fun to work with, but there are A LOT of them in Pokemon Heartgold and SoulSilver... what if we made a hardcore nuzlocke even more challenging by only using Pokemon we've NEVER used before!?
Can Normal types beat Pokemon Heartgold and SoulSilver's hardest challenge?!

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 SoulSilver Hardcore Nuzlocke with only Normal 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.

Don't miss out on entering my Pokemon Scarlet & Violet Giveaway (multiple copies!) twitter.com/SilphSpectre/status/1591496355310358530
Gen 4 true power tournament?
Love your videos! But can we get answer if you plan on doing true power tournaments again. I love watching each gym leaders teams. Can we please get info?
I would be interested in seeing a Nuzlocke run with only Erratic and Fast EXP-Group Pokemon
SILPH! Are you going to kick off Scarlet/Violet with a HC Nuzlocke? No type restrictions just a good ole blind first play through? Maybe exclude all pokemon that you've ever used before just like this video?
@@dagavinator6782 Hey brother! I can't say much, but I will say... there are plans in the works. Time is needed, but I assure you you'll enjoy what is to come!
Commenting before finishing but Antler not getting flinched or stuck in love for more than one turn is truly a blessing from RNGesus
Antler was my MVP :(
He giveth and taketh away in the best and worst ways lol
Haunter go Brrrrrr
@@thefirespecialist9007 Miltank: Scrappy go brrrr
Ahh, RNGesus… may He watch over each and every nuzlocker during the holidays ❤
You could've fit in perfectly at the team rocket hideout you literally had a Persian 😂
I was looking to see if someone commented this lol
If possible, you've gotta bring back Porygon into your later runs!
It's such a flexible powerhouse with such a varied moveset!
Its Evolutions make it even better because it can either be a tank or a glass Cannon
@@EEVEE_fan16 tbh in a nuzzlocke (with eviolite) you want to keep p2 until you are at a point where you are in dire need of the one shot that pz provides cuz bulky mon with recovery is mostly better than frail glass cannon
especially cuz of set mode
@@robinsimon4176 that's what i meant you choose what you need/want
@@robinsimon4176 The only problem is that the only other games you get Porygon within the nuzlocke (rather than in the post-game, like here) is Platinum and then Sword and Shield (either with Normal types could be fun, and you can get Porygon on the Isle of Armor)
Only Sword and Shield are post-eviolite.
I'm just imagining Slowbro going "wait, shit, I forgot, just a sec, uhh, fuck, hold on... damnit, nope, I forgot." while Lickilicky spins in circles waving a katana
I am a massive Normal type fan, and seeing a run with them in SoulSilver with it's array of mostly weak or mediocre Normal type encounters before the postgame is definitely impressive. Sick sponsor segment too!
The normal type Pokémon in Johto are the best part. There are a bunch of strong ones like miltank, lickiliky, and ambipom.
Normal types are my second fav and is just underated
You can get an Oran berry in the Ruins of Alph before the first gym. Makes it much easier. You just need the escape rope from the Sprout Tower and use it at the back wall plate in the Kabuto puzzle room
This whole run I was wondering how Lance would go since I couldnt think of any supereffective moves the johto normal types have. I found out quickly lol
poor team was fed to the dragons
Well to be honest the highlight is Miltank nailing three focus blasts in a row. That must be a world record.
Nah the AI does that all the time
The world record is 5-8
I think with the Bruno fight, instead of having Leo use Fly, I would've went for utility instead, and used Featherdance to lower Machamp's attack to at least attempt to soften the blow on the next Pokémon that came out. Great video as always!
Precisely. Given Pidgeot was a sack anyway, it would’ve been beneficial to lower Machamp’s attack with that one turn of attack
Kickin my feet up on a rainy Sunday watching some Silph, nothing beats it
Doing the same and learning to disassemble / reassemble my old DS to put a new shell on it. Gonna veg out on some Pokémon white
I mean doing literally anything else probably would
@@4373fg bro why are you here then.
Gen 4 true power tournament? I miss the true power series so much
Miltank and Persian are actually some of my favorite pokemon. So happy to finally see them utilized in a run!
What a cool run! really like the 'only new pokemon' rule for a run with that many encounters
I like to use a modified version of that rule for my Nuzlockes: Hall of Fame clause. Any successful Hall of Fame team (even those who died at the E4 or Champion battle) can only be used again in the region where they won. Unless future versions are Shiny.
This doesn’t affect Starters much (except once I used a Wonder Traded Torchic in Pokémon Y so that guy’s native to Kalos now… lol).
Pokémon that appear in many regions start having this cat-and-mouse game about them… do you really want them on your Hall of Fame team if it means they can’t be used again?
And on the other side of that, regional exclusives have more value than they usually would. Sure, put a Furfrou on your Champion team. That will not affect other games. Just keeps things interesting.
Wow, that Elite Four was wild, can't remember Silph struggling like that lately. Very exciting!
I'm so proud of Furret. What a trooper.
Funnily enough Chaotic meatball was recently talking about how landing three focus blasts was humanly impossible
It’s like a 34 percent chance… not very likely but far from impossible. 70 percent cubed.
Silph you are the man! You got me into hardcore nuzlockes and I just found my next challenge, thanks for the weekend plans 😂
Go SILPH Go ! You legend
Soul silver on a Sunday with Silph is spectacular
You have no idea... These types of videos make my Sunday. Thank you Silph!
Silph, your Pokemon videos are one of my most looked forward to videos to watch every week. The quality of all your videos is fantastic and you make every video unique and fun!
Same here plus his humor 😆
I love normal type nuzlockes! They have a great variety of type coverage with all the various tms they can learn. Plus, they (in general) don't have many weaknesses, and there's a lot of pkmn that have secondary normal types.
I love ur videos
Soul/Heart are really fun for mono-normal. It also managed to make me appreciate Girafarig and Stantler as solid mixed attackers.
Usually never get through a full Hardcore Nuzlocke Playthrough but this was captivating. Thank you for sharing and good job!
idk i rlly loved Normal-lockes !! THANK U FOR THE TWIST, since there are already some same nuzlockes (Johto Playthrough only using Normal Types) like this posted by other creators so yea this feels fresh as always.
good job man, enjoyed this as always!
Absolutely loved this run! I genuinely thought all hope was lost after that vicious battle against Lance. Also, killer type coverage between Tauros, Snorlax, and PorygonZ.
One of my favorite things about Sunday is seeing this in my notifications. This is gonna be a good one. I love normal types and looking forward to the variety :D
PLEASE can we see a rock nuzlocke of sun, moon, ultra sun, or ultra moon? 95% sure it’s possible, you just have to either give yourself Tauros Charge early or use your starter for the first island. If you do give yourself early access to Tauros Charge, you get three encounters.
EDIT: you can also get a Carbink on Poke Pelago if you give Pelago to yourself early.
18:00 Today is Monday, which means that Meowth gets to lick a Graham cracker.
So sad noctowl was completely ignored😔
4:20 i like to think that this isn’t the result of being a higher level or a nature, just brad being superior.
I’ve been watching these videos a lot , and still have a bunch to watch . Love it
You're videos always make my day. Would love to see a Pokemon white run with psychic only.
I love the thought of that scientist giving you the egg and you just chuck it whole into your mouth, then throw him the thumbs up as you leave the pokemart
14:05 seems like Dunsparce ain't no simp, I think I'm gonna give him a try in my next HGSS run.
I was honestly waiting for this run on my favourite game! Great job Silph!
Loving all the heart gold and soul silver content lately, such great games.
11am just made food and went to check any uploads and what I get this Sunday is another silph Nuzlocke which is awesome
Dang, what a missed opportunity. Gene would've been a perfect name for lickitung, lol. That elite four run was rough. It's a good thing kanto went smoothly.
16:26 I imagined Stantler as part of the Legendary Beasts and loled pretty hard at it 🤣🤣
27:19
"Aw come on man! You know that's my favorite Pokémon. The disrespect. You just can't do my boy like that."
These are the words that Silph said when he appeared on AntlerBoy's Pokémon Sword with only Dragon-types after his mascot Kingdra fainting.
Gotta love the continuity there (another fun tidbit is that this video is days removed from the 1 year of that said AntlerBoy Hardcore Nuzlocke challenge video as well!)
These videos make my Sundays, thanks for all ur hard work man!
Oh, NOW my "doppelganger" become useful. Almost in the final of the game, right before the final gym, on my favorite type on Nuzlocke. Universe, your puns are not fun.
Silph: Ok, Leo finally come in hand on the time.
Me: I am a joke for you?
Man you made my sunday not boring. Been watching your content ffor a year and I liked it from the first video. Also you help me with my english (im spanish). Keep it up my dude, thank you.
27:18 That was courteous of you to bury dunsparce before it died to a curse.
I love your content silph, always look forward to seeing your new videos popping up in my suggestions!
Normal types are underrated gems of HG/SS. So nice to see them dominate like this
That Amanda Serrano reference was gold🇵🇷😂
Silver gets Ursa. Such a good mon. Especially in gen 2
Warm bed + something to snack + Silph = best evening program
I was dying with laughter after seeing the Super Saiyan hair appear and the voice effects on the declining HP.
I get so hyped when i get the notification for a new silph video. Keep em coming
I'm out of town doing a driving lesson today, but when I get home, I'm gonna watch the hell out of this! Super excited for the vid!
Handicapping yourself by taking out previously used pokemon adds a really cool element to this run!
Having the Persian out while wearing the rocket outfit would have been perfect!
Snorlax? Gen 1-4? Yes please. MUST watch.
Silph: Hypes about hitting 3 Focus Blasts.
Me, who’s able to hit all 5 : *Pathetic*
Glad to see ChaoticMeatball's challenge mode is catching on. Man I am very exited to do a 3rd gen nuzlocke with that rule xd
(No repeat pokémon from past nuzlokes rule).
That was awesomely timed. With length remaining I knew there was a chance you wiped at Lance, Blaine, Blue and Red.
Furret is my favorite Pokemon. I'll never forget the Wedlocke where I used her against Lance with her partner dead, and ended up killing his Dragonite with After You to use Dragon Rush against it. Had Blizzard as backup but her Attack was way higher, so it was an epic way to finish. Always glad to see Furret used!
dunsparce: is technically a fully evolved pokemon
me, knowing what i know: and i took that personally.
Great video! Love it when you do a SoulSilver/HG run!
After the "entire franchise with no repeats" Nuzlocke and your "impossible type" Nuzlocke, this is everything that should be. New Pokémon to the player and a whole world of challenge (y'know, normal type)
Wooh Silph uploads make my day! Another awesome run, getting a HGSS video is always a treat as the Red battle is one of the most epic in the franchise. Would take an awful amount of grinding though, so thanks Silph!
Man the stories Jordan has to tell. It was so heartbreaking seeing the OG team fall to Lance, Jordan (and Brad technically) being the only survivor but I loved seeing you rebuild it afterwards.
Oh no, WALKEN!!
Chuck: Not anymore he ain’t
Furret single handedly won me the battle against Lance, super underrated Pokémon and I loved using it on my team :)
25:08 you have a Persian, sylph.. that's a top tier team rocket pokemon
Unbelievable...44/8. Way to clutch another run, Silph.
I was concerned for a moment on that Red battle, I still feel chivers everytime I approach Mount Silver.
With the RUclips algorithm, the first 30 seconds of the video is the single most important seconds of the vid. Starting with an ad (get that bag) is NOT the move if you’re looking for interaction
So fun! Love the additional rules to up the challenge level!
this nuzlocke made me want to train a dunsparce even more 😩💖 i love it so much
A compilation of saddest deaths, clutch moments, etc will be great
This dude is the reason I've started streaming my own Nuzlockes in purple RUclips, amazing content!!
15:15 Funnily enough, Fake out doesn't out-prioritize Quick Attack in Gen IV. It actually has the same +1 priority, but since you are both in the same priority bracket, Quick Claw can (and apparently did) cause the Meowth to move first.
Falkner's Pigeotto isn't technically illegal since you can catch a level 9 Pigeotto in Veridion Forest in Yellow Version.
Imagine a silph and antler collab. a 2 people monolocke or a versus of some sort🤩
I love watching these videos on my lunch at work!
Stantler is such a weird deer
I legit didn’t know how you were going to recover after that Lance battle. Too good man!
I’m doing this challenge right now and I got a shiny Girafarig while searching for one, pretty hype because I can actually use it😂
Ayy congrats, that's actually a really cool find! We've only found one *usable* shiny in our runs so far (in a horde encounter); hopefully we'll find another soon!
A favorite run fs, this'll go down as a Nuzlocke classic
I'm sure it's already been said but Siph's voice is why I love these challenge runs; he kinda sounds like how I imagine a Pokemon Professor would 😅
"We don't have a rocket themed Pokemon" *has a mutha-flippin' Persian*
Dude I love your content seriously I love how you work it's fantastic!
Damn dude. The Dunsparce burying itself before it died was pretty dark
Definitely happy to see my boy Tauros in a playthrough
15:22
Fun fact: In Gen 4, Fake Out doesn’t have greater priority yet, so Meowth just outsped you.
It was actually because of the Quick Claw.
@@skeetermania3202 if so, that makes sense. SmallAnt found out the terrifying way that Fake Out didn’t have greater priority yet on his no damage run of Platinum.
Thanks for all the entertainment! Kids and I are currently sick so we've been watching all of your nuzlockes lol. I have an idea but it's a little different than your challenge, play o.r. a.s. get you a team of Pokemon from the fossils and see if you can beat a game with a team that came from fossils. you can't catch Pokemon from the wild, but if you decide to you could also use fossils you gather from your playthrough
Love your videos!!! Very entertaining and your commentary always makes me laugh 💕 Thank you for making these.
Great video! Normal types are underrated.
Also, you could have totally caught Doduo at Mt. Silver
I would honestly like to see you try a nuzlocke that has a lot of encounters and doesn't have many challenging fights just to see you destroy everything.
You can find Lv9 Pidgeotto in Viridian Forest, so „Falkners“ (the Pokémon he uses in the first match are his fathers) Pidgeotto isn’t illegal
The most incredible thing Iv seen on this channel is a deathless red fight. U truely are a Pokémon master.
Man, Persian would’ve been the perfect thematic Pokémon for the Rocket uniform! Either way… loved the run like usual!
25:13 You have a persian though. The Boss' most known pokemon!
16:30 they didn't want Stantler to play reindeer games
having persian following you in the rocket hideout would of fit thematically
