If you wanted this to be a challenge why didnt you put the rival starter as a grass type instead since it resist and supereffectve against ground ty;es
Silph you're just awesome, you manage to entertain every single time you upload. You've made me fall in love with the Pokemon series again and I'm attempting a Y nuzlocke rn.
I love these nuzlocke videos! I think a fun bonus challenge for BW/B2W2 runs would be to try to beat Cynthia, just like the bonus Red battle in the Johto games
If you allow hidden grotto encounters in your nuzlockes, before the League (although I can't remember specifically which route), you can find a v rare Gligar with Immunity, which evolves into a Gliscor with Poison Heal
Love these type specific nuzlockes and really wanna try them. I’ve done a “friendlocke” in platinum where all Pokémon had to evolve through friendship. I’d love to see you try something like that in a gen 2, 5, or 6 game which I think would have a decent number of choices (like 4-9 lol)
thats actually a great idea lopunny, crobat, togekiss, roserade, blissey, clefable, eeveelutions, snorlax , lucario and azumarill would be a sick lineup for sinnoh
Just found this guy recently same with a few other RUclipsrs that do these challenges and I gotta say I respect it. So cool seeing then beat these games using different teams. I've already watched so many videos of his, cant believe I'm only hearing of him now
FlygonHG: creates entire narrative around a team of Spheals with themes of victory, loss, and good vs. evil Silph: "did you get a gift receipt for that TM... in case I want to Return it?" 😂
tried this 2 weeks ago, it was crazy. Krookodile, excadrill, seismitoad, stunfisk, claydol and flygon were my team and I was surprised how good they were. Also krookodile learns outrage, definitely helps fighting iris
Have you ever considered trying to do a monotype nuzlock with a randomizer? Maybe leaving the trainer battles standard and randomizing only your encounters. it would certainly be more luck based but I think it could be interesting and really challenging with the amount of on your feet thinking it would take
Oh my gosh the joke once you got to Undella Town had me rolling 😂. Interested to see what they are going to do with Sinnoh region since Cynthia is stepping down as Champ.💛
Always enjoy these runs. I think it would be fair and fun if instead of the first encounter, your starter is a typed pokemon not available in the game normally
Toff would have been the better choice for a name for a, female Onix using Avatar names... especially since she is the progenitor of metal bending and steelix is one of the premier steel types
Love the video! Ground types were always my favourites. I'd suggest considering banning boosting moves, however. You're an expert player and know the games and mechanics extremely well - with wide varieties of Pokemon available in challanges as these you might be able to beat the game anyway ;) keep up the great content
Man I’ve been binge watching your videos, there are other creators but your narration is the best, it’s not like you are reading a script and instead seems like a live commentator
Gen 4 was the real justice to the ground type. Gastrodon, gliscor, mamoswine, and garchomp alone are staples in their own rights if I have the opportunity to get any of those Pokémon it’s hard to pass one of them up.
Isnt the move reminder right before the flying gym? I thought you were gonna use it to get Thunder Fang on Steelix. He could have walled all of her team and used SE Thunder Fangs on her entire team.
I remember playing Pokemon Sapphire for the first time, catching Trapinch, evolving it into Vibrava, then putting it in the box. I never even considered checking the Pokedex if Vibrava evolves futher until I fought Drake, saw his Flygon, thought it looked like Vibrava, then realized it was its final stage in evolution. Lmao!
I've been working on my own hardcore nuzlocke of B2W2 challenge mode, but I'm not very good at nuzlocking and have only ever completed Emereald and Leaf Green successfully. I've wiped to Ghetsis twice and the tilt on the second wipe caused me to want to take a break. So it's insane to me that you're able to consistently defeat Ghetsis monotype. Sometimes because you're so good at the content side of things, it's easy to forget how actually good at the game you are.
I love monotype runs in this game! I’m not sure how it would go in a Nuzlocke, but one of my favorites was definitely poison type in Black and White(I think specifically 2) as you get a bunch of really nice poison types!
So for if you are using the universal Pokémon randomizer, you can actually just have a button on the first screen bottom right that says “change impossible evolutions” that makes the metal coat and hold and level up item

I like the randomizer for starter
Hey, kinda wanna se a poison run on leaf green or fire red! Have you thoght about that? If it's even possible :D love the vids :D
You forgot Seismitoad
If you wanted this to be a challenge why didnt you put the rival starter as a grass type instead since it resist and supereffectve against ground ty;es
23:40 That bit with Cynthia was too perfect, easily my favorite part of the video.
That part took me unexpected
15:40 The Boulder feels conflicted
Haru making the wildest and most impressive debut... against a champion no less! Goddamn!
Loving the Avatar themed names. I just finished my third rewatch of the series
Only three? Those are rookie numbers. You gotta pump those numbers up.
Roxie and her dad fighting would be a prime opportunity for a "Daddy chill" sound bite
The sandshrew/sandslash line is literally my favorite so I love to see them getting some good action
Silph you're just awesome, you manage to entertain every single time you upload. You've made me fall in love with the Pokemon series again and I'm attempting a Y nuzlocke rn.
THE BOULDER is one of my favorite characters!!! Love how the creators paid a bit of homage to Randy Savage
Love the frequent content man, really a treat every week.
I love these nuzlocke videos! I think a fun bonus challenge for BW/B2W2 runs would be to try to beat Cynthia, just like the bonus Red battle in the Johto games
Man, I'm impressed with how amazing Bouldera was in this run, both when she was an Onix and when she evolved into Steelix.
He should just named Onyx Toph
Ooh, just got done with black 2 ice types and now this? Silph, you spoil us
That was over a year ago
@@nsgbranden8343 true, but I was rewatching it
@@MadameTeqi oh I see 👍
He loves us lol
Could you do a randomizer please😁😄🙂😃
A tip on Gligar for BW2 runs is, you can skip it. In the shaking grass on the same route you can get a Gliscor without needing to evolve it.
If you allow hidden grotto encounters in your nuzlockes, before the League (although I can't remember specifically which route), you can find a v rare Gligar with Immunity, which evolves into a Gliscor with Poison Heal
Just in case you ever think of stopping these video, please don’t. They are too good man
22:55 i thought that was going to be a joke about a certain 2001 event and my jaw DROPPED
Love these type specific nuzlockes and really wanna try them. I’ve done a “friendlocke” in platinum where all Pokémon had to evolve through friendship. I’d love to see you try something like that in a gen 2, 5, or 6 game which I think would have a decent number of choices (like 4-9 lol)
this is a super interesting! soothe bell MVP of the run lol
thats actually a great idea lopunny, crobat, togekiss, roserade, blissey, clefable, eeveelutions, snorlax , lucario and azumarill would be a sick lineup for sinnoh
23:40 ⚰️ "ok get in" - Cynthia
😂😂
Gen 5 sprite for steelix is fun it looks like it’s dancing 22:45

Outrage can confusion after awhile so other moves like Dragon Claw is better.
I’m doing an X Mono-Dark run and I can confirm Krookodile with Outrage is great
Krookodile is one of my favorite Pokemon. Moxie sweeps are so much fun
Hi again Njivwa, I agree, I love the Power Trip set
@@Squirtle_Squad_Supremacy nice to see you too Squirtle
The fact that you didn’t nickname anyone « Toph » si lunacy. But seriously, I love your content, keep going !! ^^
41:42
You couldn't bring Krookodile into the final battles without giving something in return.
I was 100% expecting a "MY CABBAGES!!" after the crashing sounds when leaving the airport

Cool to see sandslash get some love. And his back sprite with all the hair rippling is sick!

damn that sequence with the garchomp in last battle was insane lol
Ground types are one of my favorite types! Was hoping you'd be able to use Gliscor Great run nonetheless!
Haru gave everything and more, is his victory. Congrats, great video 👍
Wasn't expecting the L4D Dead Air plane crash sound at 22:56 - Definately one of the better campaigns across both games
Was the “at least I can see these Tools perform” a hint that the band was Tool?
Steelix is my favorite Pokemon, but it never gets used in the those challenges, so seeing it in the final battle was a pleasant surprise
Dude you keep amazing me how much fun and challenging a monotype lock can be! Need to go back to gen 5 one day. GROUND TYPE BEST TYPE! There i said it
Giovanni sends his regards.
The Avatar references were awesome, just got done rewatching Last Air Bender
It’s always nice to watch a good nuzlock on mondays ✨
Really happy with your starter selection🎉. I’ve loved sandshrew since it arrived in the UK in 1999.
Always good to see my boy Steelix do wonders in a run.
Black and White 2 ☕
I want to say that’s the first Steelix to live a Nuzlocke on the channel
I really love your videos! A lot of these runs take quite a few resets, so thank you so much for all the work!
Bumi is an Avatar Last Air Bender reference I can tell I am going to like this nuzlock run
Toff would have been the better choice for a name for a, female Onix using Avatar names... especially since she is the progenitor of metal bending and steelix is one of the premier steel types
Silph is one of the best nuzlockers I’ve ever watched
It's nice to see that Claydol gets some love. I had a Claydol in Emerald, he was such a legend, a real dragon slayer with ice beam and cosmic power.
These Gen 5 runs are my favourite, thanks for another great post silph. Could I suggest trying a hard mode run of one of these games?
Another amazing and fun run, good work! I'm also looking forward to seeing what you have planned for the True Power series in the future... 🙂
Who else is excited about Silph's new project announcement 👀
Me
I am! 😜
I’m always excited for new Silph projects! 😎
fyi, most people don't consider deaths in the pyt as legit nuzlocke deaths
Love the video! Ground types were always my favourites. I'd suggest considering banning boosting moves, however. You're an expert player and know the games and mechanics extremely well - with wide varieties of Pokemon available in challanges as these you might be able to beat the game anyway ;) keep up the great content
Ah it’s always a good day when Silph uploads!
Best thing about Sundays for me is these videos from Silph
34:16 Sniper boosted Night Slash Crit KOs Flygon even at Level 100, provided Drapion is at the same level
I work Sunday at a brunch place, needless to say your posts are something that picks me up when I'm done with my shift!!
Man I’ve been binge watching your videos, there are other creators but your narration is the best, it’s not like you are reading a script and instead seems like a live commentator

So many cool Ground types in this game, awesome run! I actually just got done doing a Ground Types only run myself :)
Isnt the move reminder right before the flying gym? I thought you were gonna use it to get Thunder Fang on Steelix. He could have walled all of her team and used SE Thunder Fangs on her entire team.
I remember playing Pokemon Sapphire for the first time, catching Trapinch, evolving it into Vibrava, then putting it in the box.

I love that you had FlygonHG make a guest appearance on your channel. It’s nice to see youtubers do crossovers.
I've been working on my own hardcore nuzlocke of B2W2 challenge mode, but I'm not very good at nuzlocking and have only ever completed Emereald and Leaf Green successfully. I've wiped to Ghetsis twice and the tilt on the second wipe caused me to want to take a break. So it's insane to me that you're able to consistently defeat Ghetsis monotype.

I love monotype runs in this game! I’m not sure how it would go in a Nuzlocke, but one of my favorites was definitely poison type in Black and White(I think specifically 2) as you get a bunch of really nice poison types!
"There are cool ground type Pokemon!" **Shows Stunfisk**
Ew... No...
I think its safe to say silph has become one of if not the best hardcore nuzlocker. The commentary on these videos is second to none imo
Loving the Avatar theme, I usually name my team Avatar names too.
So for if you are using the universal Pokémon randomizer, you can actually just have a button on the first screen bottom right that says “change impossible evolutions” that makes the metal coat and hold and level up item
"If you love Pokémon you'll love Raid"
Uh Silph, you drank expired moo moo milk?
26:10 you can actually avoid him by surfing...
Loved the nickname theme! Am rewatching with younger brother for his first time, so min I heard Bumi recognized it!
Sandshrew the goat 🐐 OG Ground Type
Me who grew up in a room with no actual door, just a hole in the wall, getting made fun of in a nuzlocke of all things
I wonder if it would be possible to do a hardcore nuzlocke but base the Pokémon encounters off body characteristics like biped or quadruped Pokémon?
That repetition of saying psywave was driving me nuts lmfao I’m glad I finally saw the correction
Fun fact: the macho brace appeared first in the anime being weared by: a sandshrew 😂
I didn’t expect to see Ronnie Coleman clips here, light weight baby!
I didn't know you watched torvesta, 36:22. What a G
Sulphate is the G.O.A.T
It’s good to see sandslash being used it’s my favourite Pokemon I just hope it doesn’t die
Getting home from work and seeing that you've posted just makes my whole day worth it
SILPH OCLOCK!! BABY!!!
YESS
I need a shirt that says..what must be a sliver
Two of my favorite things! Ground types and Pokémon white 2!
The last battle with Hugh…
You’re a psycho to be able to plan that 😂😂😂
Okay the protein part got me lmao
Good Run!!! I do think you could have avoided the mamoswine scarfice due to Haxorus holding its Focus Sash, a switch should had happen there.
I thought you couldn't get Tympole in these games before the post game 🤔
Petition to Silph to include scenes of stealing held items from wild Pokemon.
That Haxorus sequence was absurd 😂
Hey Silph, you’ve got quite a lot better at pokémon, why don’t you play in Challenge Mode for these game?
Those ground types did really great! They are a very good type for Pokémon black 2 and white 2
Silph! do you think its possible to do a Nuzlock for Black 2 & White 2 while on Challenge mode!?
That would be so interesting!
Ty for taking me taking me back in time and enjoying memories with your nickname theme o/
"Always, REMEMBER TO PLAY AROUND THE CRITICAL HIT". I am depressed now. Great run tho
Man your keeping me filled with videos I can't even keep up thank you silph
I honestly don't know how you only have 232.000 subscribers, your content is amazing and pretty funny! Keep up the good work, Silph!
During the Raid sponsor segment I thought he said "Speed is key" and had flashbacks
