Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate! Thank you for a wonderful 2024. Lots in the works for 2025; I'll see you in the New Year!
Synchronise the ability has a overworld use where wild pokemon you encounter has a 50% chance of having the same nature as your lead pokemon. That would explain why you pokemons has the same nature as Umberon
In gen 6 the megas DO in fact retain their pre-mega speed stats so you were right. It’s why in vgc they would protect on the same turn they mega evolve because they want their new speed stat!
Being at -1 attack and burned is equilvolent to being at -4 attack, not -2. Being at neutral for any stat is equivalent of being at 2/2, when you go positive the numerator is increased and when you go negative the denominator is increased, so at -1 attack you're at 2/3rds attack. Burn halves your attack regardless of this, so (2/3)*(1/2)=(2/6), which is the same as what being at -4 attack sets you to, whereas -2 attack is only 2/4 (or 1/2)
6:47 also Editor you meet Alder the champion of BW1 like before the first gym of BW2, but yeah discounting those two it might be an tie between Diantha and Steven stone
Gen 1 your rivals the champion you meet before getting starter, same with Leon in Sword/Shield. Even faster is Sun/Moon with kukui who you meet before even actually properly starting
From now on, if you're at a disadvantage, I now decree you utilize legendaries if the opponent is using Mega evolution/ Gigantamaxing/Teraforming and you captured the legendary Pokemon of the same typing. That or at least do a pokemon run of just legendaries if that's even possible. Amazing video none the less.
I am currently going through a Dark type run in Scarlet! When I started, I had completely forgotten about some of the OG Dark types like Tyranitar, Umbreon, and Sneasel. I looked at a list of dark types available to me and saw all of those beautiful Dark types and then proceeded to facepalm at the ones I forgot existed!
It's crazy they introduced the Supertraining in the easiest mainline games as if you won't already stomp it in any vanilla playthrough. But very beautiful region on the 3DS. And megas which they only gave the evil boss and the champ. They could easily gave every gym leader from the 5th onwards a Mega and every Elite four member. I like Kalos and look forward to Legends ZA but OR/AS are a bit better for me
Thanks for all your content ✨ I follow a lot of pokemon content creators and I think you're easily my favorite sooooo, is always a good day when you upload! Have a nice December 🎉
@spectrum-5 yeah, my mistake. It's been so long since gen 6. I confused it with the one in oras. I believed the guy who gives you the super rod on route 16 was the guy who gave the mega stone for some reason
It was definitely possible to do this deathless. I think the e4 team just wasnt the best one he could have picked. Ttar is good but i think things like drap and umberion would have been better.
15:47 weird idea, but ... why not use the old rod to get a Magicarp and then just treat Mega Gyarados as your designated dark Type mega Evolution? As long as you always mega-evolve it as soon as it enters battle I don't see an an issue with that. I would treat that the same as using pokemon that only gain the typing after evolution if there aren't any other encounters available at the time.
Hey Silph! I was wondering what emulator you play on and if it’s available on mobile? I’m striving to do similar content to you and I’d like to play some 3ds games for it but can’t on any app I find. Folium won’t work for me so I’m wondering if you can help? Sorry to trouble you with this
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate! Thank you for a wonderful 2024. Lots in the works for 2025; I'll see you in the New Year!
today is my birthday
Not to be that guy but 12:05 it’s “CORE- Reana” like arenas without the a, that’s how it’s pronounced
Also Sliph quick question will you return to the True Power with Sinnoh.
Happy holidays to you too! Can't wait for the 2025 videos
Yes please lol @@RykoVerse2020
Dark types for Christmas? The Seasonal Affective Disorder run.
cabin fever nuzlocke kekw

“I’m pissing on the moon!”
That caught me off guard but made me laugh hard.
Eggman: I've come to make an announcement
Synchronise the ability has a overworld use where wild pokemon you encounter has a 50% chance of having the same nature as your lead pokemon. That would explain why you pokemons has the same nature as Umberon
yepp, i was about to say the same thing
Diantha is definitely not the earliest you meet a champion, you have Leon in Sword/Shield and Kukui in Sun/Moon
36:16 steel doesn't resist dark from gen 6 onwards
I’m sorry, Greninja AND Bisharp in the same run?! Two of my favorite Dark types and some of my favorite warrior Pokemon?! HELL YEAH!!!
Bisharp easy top 10 Pokemon
In gen 6 the megas DO in fact retain their pre-mega speed stats so you were right. It’s why in vgc they would protect on the same turn they mega evolve because they want their new speed stat!
Sharpedo's mention of demonetizing videos was the level of evilness we needed from them. AI is just a marvelous thing.
This true? Super confused what slang or language it would be offensive..

Being at neutral for any stat is equivalent of being at 2/2, when you go positive the numerator is increased and when you go negative the denominator is increased, so at -1 attack you're at 2/3rds attack.

The editing at the start especially was really good, great work man
If I remember correctly, if your lead pokemon has synchronized, it will cause your encounters to have the same nature
It's complicated. Certain gens it was 50% other gens it was only certain gift mons, etc. But your general recollection is accurate
A comeback, you say? 👀
Just wanna say, the WBL BETTER be back next month! Just don't want all your efforts going to waste!
Thank God this is going to exist again 🙏
Welcome back Silph!!! Liking now for the algo but imma save to watch tomorrow at work during lunch fr
wow what will power. i always click him first and eat it right away!
"Oh well, can't win em all."
*- SilphSpectre*
you meet blue pretty early. hes the champion lol
you dont meet blue as a champion before fighting the elite four
i love when x and y came out and everyone complained about it and now everyone loves it
It happens every Pokemon game
6:47 also Editor you meet Alder the champion of BW1 like before the first gym of BW2, but yeah discounting those two it might be an tie between Diantha and Steven stone
Gen 1 your rivals the champion you meet before getting starter, same with Leon in Sword/Shield. Even faster is Sun/Moon with kukui who you meet before even actually properly starting

Another Sonic Snapcube nod...you're spoiling us recently sir!!! 😍
I'm surprised Silph didn't do a Nightmare before Christmas naming theme for this. Still amazing video regardless!
Having synchronize pokemon like umbreon in the first party slot made your encounters have the same nature as he had
Deathless until Diantha.
happy holidays silph! thank you for all the content!
Thank you for a great 2024 silph
SilphSpectre: I've come to make an announcement! Lysandre's a--!

Should have been X, but whatever.
Also, Can you beat Platinum using ONLY Friendship Evolution.
One caveat: Catch the level 10 Golbat in Oreburgh Gate.
The World Battle League is coming back? It's really coming back? Oh, master Silph, this is the best christmas present you could give a poor fan.
Would you have concidered mega Gyarados as your mega since its a dark type or becase its base isnt a dark so is it not allowed
I can find no person that can make Pokemon as entertaining like this man
There are 2 more
So excited for the World Battle League to come back!
Great vid. Merry Christmas to you too mate.
No Aparent Weaknesses EXCEPT Fighting
Fairy
This video proved quite fun. Here's hoping for the WBL's return! Happy Holidays!
That Hydreigon vs Gourgheist and MGardevior reminds me of the Masters 8 Tournament Lance v Diantha
Gen 1 would be the earliest you meet a champion. With your rival being the first and last battle
Silph is ready for major 2025 runs, I bet
Technically you could've used gyarados and every time you send it out it must immediately mega evolve to it's dark type form
gyaradosite is locked to the postgame
@spectrum-5 yeah, my mistake. It's been so long since gen 6. I confused it with the one in oras. I believed the guy who gives you the super rod on route 16 was the guy who gave the mega stone for some reason
haven't watched you in a year
Merry Christmas Silph! Thank you for the content my dude, and I hope 2025 brings joy and further success!
Give in to the dark side!!
Love a Sunday silph upload!
Using dark types in a game that introduced the fairy type is very interesting.
What a brave run, will it take a Christmas miracle to complete? Or will it be a nightmare before Christmas? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Z!
Merry Christmas everyone
Shark boy so powerful not even RUclips will let you speak his name! (GameFreak really shouldn't have named him that)
This was a really cool one I never realized how many cool dark types there are
You also meet Leon within 5 minutes of the game starting in Sword and Shield
Great Job Silph I love your videos
It was definitely possible to do this deathless. I think the e4 team just wasnt the best one he could have picked. Ttar is good but i think things like drap and umberion would have been better.
Route 13 ended more of my runs from sheer annoyance than roxanne ended flying type nuzlockes with her rock types.
Hearing the world battle league is coming back made my day
Sacred Gold / Storm silver next pls
For earliest time you meet a champion you technically meet Blue right at the start of the game
15:47 weird idea, but ... why not use the old rod to get a Magicarp and then just treat Mega Gyarados as your designated dark Type mega Evolution?
As long as you always mega-evolve it as soon as it enters battle I don't see an an issue with that.
I would treat that the same as using pokemon that only gain the typing after evolution if there aren't any other encounters available at the time.
28:22 murkrow has the wrong cry 😧
Following in the footsteps of Dark Lord Mikey, I see. 😈
X/Y are one of my favourite games! Lets go!
I suggest a minor rule change that you are allowed to use pokemon that evolve into the challenge type as long it evolution is above the lvl cap.
Hey Silph! I was wondering what emulator you play on and if it’s available on mobile? I’m striving to do similar content to you and I’d like to play some 3ds games for it but can’t on any app I find. Folium won’t work for me so I’m wondering if you can help? Sorry to trouble you with this
No Mega Gyarados? He is Dark Type
@davidbahena174 Tell that to Sylph to used a Mega Ampharos in a Dragon Hardcore Nuzlocke 2 years ago
gyaradosite is locked to the postgame
@@Buddy26420 that’s post game so silph’s cooked without the mega bracelet for Gyarados
merry Christmas my fellow Canadian lad
Looks like Christmas came early!!
Shoulda run mega Gyarados. I mean, it's dark type in its mega form. Seems like it would count to me
You can get into the luxury clothing store easily by buying 20-25 premier balls from the poke ball shop one at a time
Finally, Silph nuzlocked a 3d pokemon game
Sword and Shield Ground type run when? 😮😊
Finally, new video!!
Sucks that your Malamar didn't end up with Contrary for its ability. But then again it might have made the game too easy.
I guess you could have used mega gyarados since it is a dark type... but itd be a pain to have a mon youd never get to useoutside of megas lol
Finally a new nuzlocke! ❤
Fun fact you can actually find Inkay on route 8 on the grass after Connecting Cave.
fun fact: absol is also found on route 8, and unlike inkay, is found _nowhere else_
It seems that Lysandre had an announcement to make. 🌙
The theme is famous notorious book characters
Yeah you are really lucky since Bulbasaur should have Vine whip and leach seed at level 10
Dark types as of late I feel kinda fell of despite having some cool designs for pokemon the ghost type is pretty much better in everyway
21:52 how are people getting demonetized just for saying sharpedos name?
It has pedo in it
What language or slang is sharpedo misunderstood?
Pedo
The last 4 letters of sharpedo
Shark... Guy... 🤣
This is a great video
16:04 OMG INKAY/MALAMAR HAVE FINALLY BEEN USED
Edit: he wasn’t used the rest of the run… rip
Love you silph
You have to be kidding 😂 isn't the earliest you meet the Champion in Red and Blue?
Damn, 3ds graphics looking sharp
I love how you used the living room from gumball.
Merry Christmas i hope you have a great year and a good year without getting kidnappe-
Christmas came early 🎄🫡
Take a shot every time he says "of all things"
not getting contrary is like, what's even the point of this pokemon?
Can't wait for world battle league in jan
What happened to the WBL?
Hope you're having a good day
@12:20 Giovanni
Wouldnt Leon be the earliest champ you meet
Not trying to be a nerd but steel doesn't resist dark in gen 6
DO A RUN OF B2W2 IN CHALLENGE MODE. YOU CHOOSE THE TYPE
Can you do a play through using only fossil Pokémon
🎉❤ thx for ur content
