Can You Beat Pokemon X With Only Black Shinies?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 фев 2025
- Black Shiny Pokemon are the coolest ever made and in this video I'll only be using them to beat Pokemon X! As if the hours upon hours of shiny hunting weren't challenging enough, I decided to also make this a hardcore nuzlocke! What do you think the final team will be? Can we even beat this challenge? Why am I asking you these questions? Watch to find out!
Nuzlocke Rules:
1) Can only catch the first Black Shiny Pokemon on each route (species and dupes clauses in effect)
2) Fainted Pokemon are considered dead and must be released or permanently boxed
3) No leveling past the next gym leader/E4 member's ace (before the start of battle)
4) No items in battle (Held items are okay)
5) Battle mode must be on "Set"

What’s your favorite shiny Pokemon?
Flygon
Shiny Umbreon is the only acceptable answer. The blue rings and yellow eyes are the superior form.
Coincidentally, it's also my favourite pokèmon: Aegislash. And black shinies are the best, obviuously.
Do I need to spell it out
Greatest video ever and my favorite shiny is greninja
Funny thing: about a few months ago, I bought a copy of X to replay the game. I wanted to shiny hunt Froakie as a joke (because Greninja is my favorite shiny of all time). I’m not kidding you when I say that I found it in 4 soft resets after starting my adventure
That's incredible luck - congrats!
I got a shiny Bulbasaur without even hunting it in my Y file
@Gabriel Scherer tell her that i dislike this comment lol
If only this Shaymin on SP was like that.... ☠
do you need to restart your whole game each time to get a shiny starter, or is there a certain point that a pokemon being a shiny or not is determined. like is there a certain place where i can save the game and retry over and over again to get it?
You must have the patience of a saint or the sanity of a madman. Possibly both. Loved seeing shiny gourgeist in action since that is one of my favourites!
Probably the latter 😅
True both
I have the latter
@@CGA_YT bro please stop torturing urself im getting thirdhand sanity
You probably know the channel let's game it
out
Despite being only 0.00001 percent of the pokemon population, black shinies commit over 50% of one hit K.O.s
Well Well Well
"I know he isn't black yet, but just you wait"
Bro I cried when he said that 😭
My guy did the reverse Michael Jackson 🕺🕺🕺
Well done my guy!
I normally am not that interested in nuzlock videos like these but I gotta say, I enjoyed this video very much! I admire your patience to research, plan, and hunt for each of these shinies. Would love to see more from you!
11 and a half hours for a STARTER. Personally I would not be able to sit down and just reset for half of that time. That must have really put the pressure on. Love the content as always.
It wasn't all in one sitting haha but thank you!
I'd have just got my starter and started hunting in the first patch of grads
I hunted for a shiny mudkip in OR/AS and honestly it's not that bad of a process if you are doing something else like watching RUclips or Netflix
11 hours is nothing. I hunted chimchar for 66 hours before quitting
@@royalowen1231 Want a cookie?
One thing on the honedge,modest isn't necessarily god awful,you can still make use of it via shadow ball and flash cannon
Also,for me the best shiny gotta be the porygon line in general,that lavender color is beautiful
He sucks so you shouldn’t be surprised
nah
I love that shiny, but my favorite is Volcarona (but all the black shiny are wonderful)
True! Aegislash has amazing special attack in its attack form. I never considered it but you’re 100% right
@@billie-ve_in_yourself6464 i feel like people forget it has equal attack stats because of its shallower special movepool 😂
Lysander: Oh. Hello, Darkness.
Me: My old friend.
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within The Sound Of Silence
Recommendation: Add a timer so we would know how long the run has been.
Or just listen because he says how long each hunt took
@@thirstylizard1809 how can we know that he's actually being honest
@@Earl_GTIS He isn't, but its ok, it would suck if it was a speedrun, but a "can you do this" type of video, just takes time to do so...
But he will not tell that
@@HTRxGUNNR so you're saying that anyone can just put on cheats and say that its legit without needing proof? that sucks
@@Earl_GTIS yep, because some things will just take a long time to complete, they are not impossible, so you just cheat, take what you need, and skip that in the video and no one will be able to tell if you did
It always amazes me that people can take so much time do do something like this. Me personally I can't, I can barely sit still for ten minutes. Shout out to you!
I loved this video man! Also, I recently figured this out, but when you're soft resetting for the kanto starters, if you come into the battle with sycamore with a full party, after you pick you're starter, he'll tell you to empty out your party and come back when there's room and it makes the resets like 30 seconds.
If only I'd known this before the run haha
@@CGA_YT yeah lol
Yeah, but the problem is that he didn't have a full team of six.
Charizard is one of the few pokemon who have had their shiny changed. It was originally purple and green or something, but was changed to black and red. I kinda wanna call it Charizard favoritism, but some other pokemon have had their shiny form changed such as Arbok.
Poor Cyndaquil
cus it would've just been a dragonite copy
@@cqrdi It was actually an Aerodactyl reference originally.
It turned into shiny mega charizard x’s shiny makes sense on why those were the colors now
Imo charizard looks better with purple shiny
I know it’s not helpful now after the run has been finished, but shiny hunting the Kanto starters doesn’t require you to battle each time. Just have a party full of 6 Pokémon before receiving the starter. You will be asked to make room in your party and can save at that point meaning you only have a short conversation with the professor each reset. I managed to obtain a Bulbasaur in 2000~ SR’s this way.
You came in under odds so much. They shiny gods were definitely smiling down on you for this run!
Except for natures
I think it’s difficult to understand the full gravity of how long it took to complete this. I suggest a reset counter over on the side near the level cap and deaths and maybe a hours allotted counter as well. I know this took ages but it’s a really good video so thank you!
This is a great suggestion - if I work up the nerve to do another of these I'll be sure to add
"So it's Darkness, then?" Best start of a pokemon game 😂
Wow 1668 resets for the frog, that's some dedication!
Just had to power through!
He's still very patient to have done it but 1668 is, sadly, very under odds :(
Great video! A much appreciated touch was the inclusion of the number of encounters each one of these took you to find. Not every RUclipsr who does these videos includes that, so you stand out!
“So what did you do today?” Spent 11 hours for a cooler frog
"Obviously black shinies are the coolest"
Zekrom: 😏
I really like pokemon X/Y challenges, they are my favorite games. I really enjoyed this video keep up the good content
I got a shiny Gourgeist on my first X playthrough, nice to see another one here
I really like the purple thrown in with the black
SPOILER IM JUST CHECKING COMMENTS
@@Priyamyes dumbass you shouldn’t have CHECKED the comments.
@@Priyamyes then maybe, you know, don't go check the place where people talk about the video before you watch the video?
An interesting shiny run you could do is the ‘is this shiny?’ where they don’t look any different from normal
Fuckin Natu, released a shiny one back in the day on emerald cuz I caught a higher lvl one
shiny garchomp 💀
Shiny gengar 💀
"We dont take the the lucario because his shiny is yellow, gross" Charmeleon: am i a joke to you?
Idk if it can learn this in gen 6 but when I used umbreon for my dark type nuzlocke in sword and shield I had it learn sand attack, charm, moonlight and confuse ray. If I had a tough battle coming up I would send her out, get the Pokémon to -6 accuracy and -6 attack then confuse it and switch out. Then I would just boost my sweeper and then take everyone out. It felt like cheating because the AI doesn’t switch and will still play through those impossible afflictions.
I love a good Umbreon support set
I think with a full team it doesn’t need any attacking moves.
That’s because Pokémon sword and shield are the easiest games mabee besides this one
Eevew can learn charm in gen 6
@@CGA_YT lol umberon saved you otherwise mega gardevoir would have oneshoted your entire team
with how much patience this dude had and how cool and everything of a guy this dude is i stg he should have millions of subs. you deserve it all this was amazing
I’m so glad that someone is noticing Gourgiest, its shiny is just so breathtaking…
Why he didn't choose a black character? 💀
Because he didn’t want to work harder 👴🏻
@@EDPs_cupcake111didn’t want to increase crime in kalos
@@itooflemmahe didn’t want his master to find him💀
@@LennLeafhe didn’t want officer Jenny pulling him over💀
Because the whites own the blacks💀
Wow love it! Subscribed!:D
Shiny hunting is hazardous to your health lmao
as soon as i seen “full odds” i had to hit the vid with a like
Appreciate the support!
What it means? “Full odds” 🤔
@@Carcosahead it means theres no change to the encounter rate of shiny pokemon
Gotta love how this dudes always find the exact shiny pokémon they are looking for. Soooo lucky
It's sus
Ngl doing a hardcore Nuzlocke at the same time is mad, good job :)
The amount of patience this must’ve took is crazy
I think he used the shiny cheat code, because this would take faar too long
i kinda think its fake ngl
@@paulandrew6867he cheated look at the Coumadin’s gym battle then look at how many Pokémon he caught on his 3ds screen not the edited over bit thing the screen
Dude you deserve way more subscribers your content is amazing!
Thank you man, really appreciate it!
I would have to say that my favorite shiny is blacephalon, haven't even caught one before but that shiny is beautiful
My first Pokemon game was Pokemon Y. I loved watching this video as it remembered me of when I was younger. Loved the video.
3:27 "oh hello darkness"
Someone else that was just sitting around.. ".. my old friend.. I've come talk with you once again"
great video legend
Thank you sir
Damn bro I've never seen your channel before but just the realization of how much time you put into this run...mad Respect keep it up bro
I am actually trying this out but with no type block. Currently on 10 hours of fennekin and hope to get it soon. This just gives me more motivation to keep on going!
Edit: it's been a month now and still no shiny, however I did decide to restart pokemon black 2 for a casual play through and found a full odds audino, so I see that as a sign of success to come! Hopefully...
Keep pushing! It helps if you watch a show or something while going through the resets - I'm sure you'll get it soon!
Did you ever get your fennekin?
@@snugkhan5149 not yet. Fortunately I have a lot more free time now, so I'll hopefully get it soon
@@thepurplevaporeon9781 how about now
@@speedyboy1147 I have taken a large break for now, choosing to start doing challenge runs of old games and hunting in sv. Unfortunately I will probably delay this hunt for another few weeks at least
It's not just a phase Mom! I loved that also great video and props on the shiny hunt, loved the video bro. Also I'm EMO and found this funny as heck.
"I know he isn't black yet but just you wait" Lmao
when i first click this video, i thought its gonna be one of those run where people just increase the shiny odd just so they could make a shiny run, thank god its an actual shiny hunt, good video
love the edgy shinies, great video btw
Thank you!!
Man I remember how good this game was. People always gripe on it for being a modern Pokemon game but those are the same people who believe the first 4 generations were the best generations while completely passing over Unova region which was also a banger region. Unova has some banger Pokemon just like the Kalos region.
This video was so entertaining and really enjoyable commentary. Love the videos ❤
You should try doing a random team! Each member of the team a different color of the rainbow. Also this video was awsome!!!
That dedication did not go unseen. Good on you hope those hours(youll never get em back) paid off for you I liked and subbed. Cant wait to see your sanity dwindle as you set the bar incredibly high for the future of your channel😂
Great Video!
Thank you!
Sad that I dont have a black shiny. Hope you do a red shinies soon
- Duke Clawitzer -
All hail the lord
Oh shit, its the Clawitzer
Even though you got one tapped you made it into the vid!
I kinda want to see a lagendary/mythical/ultra beast only randomize nuzlocke in ultra sun or ultra moon.
This play through took more then three days of shiny hunting for anyone curious. This man is a freaking mad lad
“I know he isn’t black yet ,but just you wait” 😂😂 idk why this was so funny
Since you hated on yellow shinys you gotta do yellow next if you ever decide to do another one of these challenges.
Imagine green shinies lmao
Shiny Gigalith is my fave. I love seeing that sparkly blue beast 💯💯
In one of my black and white solo speed runs I ran into a shiny boldore!
i know this is an older video, and you had your shiny odds reduced- but the fact you got a shiny FEMALE charmander in that little encounters amazes me
currently soft resetting for the starter, it's very time-consuming due to the amount of dialogue before you even see your pokemon. Respect to you for restarting the game for 11 hours lol
X: World doesnt revolve on you
Me: are you sure? 31:13
Shiny gengar is my favorite, personally it’s a great shade of purple and thought it dosent change much it still looks great, plus it’s mega is fire
Actually I agree especially in generation 3 it was fire
@@liamdearle8799 that’s the disappointing thing about 3d sprites they usually don’t do the shinies justice compared to the 2d sprites
@@recon9223 true name a pokemon that got it worse then shiny gengar in 3d sprites
What about WHITE shines?
I was scared someone was gonna say this 😅
RIP to the fallen sldiers o7
This is insane, my patience wouldnt allow me to sit through even 2 hours of reseting for a shiny, amazing vid
"I know he isnt black yet but just you wait" is a sentence I thought I'd never hear in my life
I got Axew on my 3rd encounter (not shiny)
0:03 defently garchomp
Same
Hell no he doesn’t even change
These shines are my least favorite-👴🏻
Thats very impressive considering the time and effort to pull it off
kepp up the good 👍
“I know he isn’t black yet”
Best line to come out of a mouth
Whos watching this during black history month
Lmao
Good old faked video
How
You’re telling me that he spent nearly a week shiny hunting? No shot.
I lost it at the Axew part lol. I'd trust this more if he streamed but no, just "yeah, 10% encounter chance Axew, got it in like 3 hours"
"Ah, great to see kids these days owning black creatures like I did back in the good old days" - 👴🏻
That was insane! Inagine the patience level
The first five seconds of the video about black shinys…. TAKE THE SHOT
"I know he isn't black yet, but just you wait." Sounds like a line from Malibu's Most wanted haha
my favourite shinies are heatmor, giratina, lurantis and hisuian zoroark! I just love the way their colours look. I love how different they are from their original colours too. black shinies are pretty cool, but sometimes the best shinies are the most vibrant
great video i really enjoyed it keep it up :)
Wow mad respect for hunting for so long. You just earned yourself a new sub.
This is amazing, being black has always been an amazing hard mode!!!
A like and a share for the effort. Amazing run wp
“That black has some of the best shinys”
Incineroar: am I a joke to you?
CGA: Beats Pokémon X with only black shinys.
Also CGA: None of those shinys are black for over 5 minutes.
great video, but that charizard death was preventable, i would have died inside if i that would happen to me after i have been grinding for hours. Glad you managed to beat the champ anyways.
Shauna: "You know, i never watched fireworks with a boy alone before"
I got inspired by your run to do one of my one but in ORAS and man like really you are a legend for sitting through all that time to get the shiny. What a legend
1:04
Shauna: He's a Li'l D for sure
Steven's dad: Emotional Damage
casual white play through only owning black pokemons
Ok but the fact that he said “i know it isn’t black yet but just you wait” is wild 1:08
15:50 I cant blame you forgetting something as small as this. Once I went to the elite four when four of my Pokémon were dead and I 100% forgot that they were.
Umbreon is such a meme
High defenses, decent attacks, and most importantly - the moveset
Ability: Synchronize
Moveset: Payback, Moonlight, Refresh, Sleep Talk
Payback abuses its low speed for more damage, Moonlight is a free heal, Refresh + Synchronize is busted for obvious reasons, and Sleep Talk is good because Synchronize only doesn't work on Sleep so it gives you the extra coverage for that. You can also sub out Sleep Talk for Psychic so that Fighting type is useless!
Can we talk about how my guy made it to the second last elite four member with 0 deaths
This squad is the most likely squad to commit a felony I have ever seen
"Darkness" sounds like a nickname a 2010's goth kid gives themselves in high school lmao
"Obviously black shinier are the coolest"
Purple shinies: you underestimate my power.
"i am not a sane person" has earned you a new subscriber
This video is absolutely insane
“Sadly duoblade still isn’t black” goes hard ngl

There's just something about watching a big pokemon Dig on a bridge above water that's just amusing.
