Breloom is the Goat of all the grass types in Hoenn. It has only 1 downside, it belongs to the "Fluctuating" exp growth group which means it takes the most exp to reach level 100 and the level/exp curve is a very weird peicewise function.
It also has pure garbage special attack, which by gen3 rules eliminates all damaging grass-type moves. But yeah, Breloom is bae. Alongside Cacturne, which is a free win ticket against Tate&Lisa, Juan and most of the Elite 4.
@@DeuxisWasTaken true, gen 3 rules for attack damage category being typed based really nerfs a bunch of pokemon. For example sneasle is a physical attacker but both dark and ice types are special. And its signature move beat up deals typeless damage. Granted after gen 3 they didn't get better about matching physical/special attacker to the move pool of pokemon making some pokemon suck for no good reason just because stats and moves don't match.

The Tropius picture at the very start had me in tears 😂 I began binge watching your content. You definitely deserve more views and subscribers! Your content is really good and I love your humor.
I love how this isn’t some bullshit “Can you beat this Pokémon game with this Pokémon” challenge. Challenge in quotation marks, because those are generally piss easy. This is an actual challenge. Keep up the banger content man 👍
New to the community so this is probably a dumb question but are you allowed to save at all? Also, if you lose a gym battle or something does that mean you automatically lose? Or are you allowed to pull a different set of pokemon in the box since it technically isnt violating any of the rules?
Tropius is one of my all time fave Pokémon, and Land Before Time started my childhood dinosaur obsession. So naturally I cackled like a maniac at that Littlefoot edit. 🤣
your darumaka with cylinder and stick from pp reminds me of my darumaka Bernard from my first white playthrough (he looked exactly the same), he was my favorite pokemon and I loved him so much
That Winnona fight was soul crushing. Say what you will about your performance, but I think your unluck was so unfairly immense. One sweet scent probably could have saved you but I still don't think the game was feeling nice regardless
You absolutely broke my mind with Lombre’s movepool. I’ve been spoiled by ORAS for so long that I legit couldn’t *believe* that it didn’t learn any water moves other than Hydro Pump. I promptly looked it up on Serebii to make sure it wasn’t a mistake or a Ruby/Sapphire exclusive moveset and... it’s all true. I felt like I got Mandela’d or something. I was freaking out, dude. Well done.
Mannn you’re about to blow up in subs!! I keep reading comments like “ this was in my recommended”. (Same for me) but if we’re all getting these the algorithm is right where you want it!! Keep up the good work man ... just noticed you went up 600 subs in 2 days nice!!!
@@FlygonHG two months and you have 63 thousand subs. You absolutely deserve this and should absolutely keep blowing up. Keep it up because I love these runs!

Just binge watched half of your channel. This is just what I've been looking to find on RUclips. Hardcore nuzlocke on old gens with good thoughts and narration. Keep it up! Greetings from Belgium
This was AMAZING! I've always wanted to do a monotype run (probably not as difficult as this) but this makes it look super fun!! Also you can 100% tell how happy Farmers must be to have stayed alive in that final battle so she could stand tall with the rest of the team! :D
Currently binging on your videos, and I gotta say IDK why I didn't find you sooner, your strategies are INCREDIBLY well thought out, you're like the nuzlocke genius lmao
Honestly the best gen for Mono Grass. I’ve always loved the typing but this is the only generation I ever attempted a mono grass challenge on. Ludicolo, Breloom and Cradily is just great coverage. Good luck
Going back and watching this one again a year and a half later, it's obvious just how much you've improved in quality both in play and in production. I got lucky and RUclips recommended me your first ever video right after it came out, and I haven't missed one since. You've come so far and it's been great to watch.
Hoenn R/S/E had good variety with grass types though tbh. You have Sceptile, Ludicolo for a water type, breloom for a fighting type, Shifty or Cacturn if you want a dark type, Tropius if you need a flying type, Vileplume or Roseila for a poison type and Cradily for rock type
Too bad that Shifry and Cacturne are physical attackers, but dark was a special type. Same thing with Roselia -- special attacker and poison being q physical type.
I have only watched two of your videos but damn your content is amazing. The fact that you actually use an strategy for these fights is so nice, like setting up attack boosts and calculating the right EVs for your team unlike other youtubers on their challenge videos. I'm totally looking forward to watch more nuzlockes from you.
Very well done! Breloom's one of my fave Pokemon and my fave Fighting type. :) Honestly? Might be a hot take but I do think Wallace is actually pretty scary for Nuzlockes. Yeah he's a Water type specialist but in Gen 3, where Water's weaknesses are Special AND the fact his Mons are Specially bulky (Gyarados, Milotic, Tentacruel, Ludicolo) gives him an easier time wearing down teams for hardcore Nuzlockes lol. His team has some pretty good synergy to cover Water's weaknesses too. Turns out, Water's an amazing type. :V
This was great, by far the most entertaining of all these various Pokemon challenge videos that are popular nowadays. I really like your calm tone while you maintain insightful and interesting commentary.
Great run man. I love when people impose these extra Nuzlocke rules, because there were just so many instances here when I was just glued to my screen. You earned a new subscriber. Keep up the good work!
But you cant guarantee that theyll survive long enough to actually Evolve. And he would have had two Glooms/Oddishes in his team at some Pointu because of that.
I always read the species clause as being optional. If your encounter on a route is a line you already have, you MAY choose to reroll the encounter. I thought it was supposed to help you avoid being stuck with 6 wurmples, not ban you from choosing to do it.
Hey, amazing video! Really love your voice, it’s perfectly fitting this video. Do you have a dark or rock type run planned? Would love to see such a run from you :)

Lmaoo I knew you were gonna wipe at least once . I was just expecting against Watson. Using sceptile, even without a nuzlocke, ur gonna be super prone to wiping.
Treecko is only the best in Emerald Kaizo Otherwise, no reason to pick anything other than Mudkip outside of favoritism (nothing wrong with that mind you.)
