  • Is it possible to beat a Hardcore Nuzlocke using only Pokemon species with names beginning with the letter H? Let's find out! I'm playing through the second half of Pokemon Soul Silver, so all the gyms from Kanto and the rematches of the Indigo League Elite Four!
    If you enjoy this type of Nuzlocke content, it would be awesome if you liked the video and subscribed! I'll be continuing to work my way through the Alphabet, so don't miss out!
    The Hardcore Nuzlocke rules for this challenge:
    1. Only catch the first Pokemon on each route, as long as the species name begins with "H" or evolves into one starting with "H". Re-roll on non-"H" and duplicates.
    2. If a Pokemon faints, it must be released.
    3. No over-leveling above the gym leader's highest level
    4. No items in battle.
    5. Play on Set Mode.
    6. No evolving a Pokemon if no further evolutions begin with "H" (e.g., I can use Horsea, but can never evolve it into Seadra or Kingdra)

    This was easily your best video yet.
    Firstly, I thought it was super creative to treat the SoulSilver postgame as its own challenge. Then, we had the incredible contributions of Hoppip and Horsea. Deciding to take on both Red and the Elite Four rematches was also a great way to make the most of this game. Last, a small thing, I was really impressed with switching to counter with Heracross against Lance's Gyarados.
    Really great stuff.

    Hariyama can learn Surf because he's based on Sumo Wrestlers, and it's referenced that Makuhita's from Alola are more popular than others, indicating a connection with Hawaiians.
    Though Alola wasn't out yet when SoulSilver got released, Hariyama does look like he's wearing some sort of hula skirt.
