[@ernest292]

Didn't Erica play Vileplume more than Venusaur? So shouldn't the alternate be Venusaur and Liligant?

[@jasonqualls4230]

Silph, big fan of your channel. Would LOVE to see you attempt a loser lock like flygonhg has done. He banned anything with a bst >400 going through pokemon emerald. I really wanna see if any nuzlocker could pull this off in the gen 45 games. Maybe make the max like 425 instead since the games are so hard but u get the idea

[@marufalam939]

17:51 Just look at the amount of Red shards

[@visioapparel4302]

Erika's team is actually way cooler than I remembered

[@SchleuderMan03]

Challenge Idea: You can only use the Pokemon that you can catch inbetween Gyms. So for each Gym you need to have a completly new team

[@gaminggoddess85]

The N challenge, basically.

[@evankurasu3190]

​@gaminggoddess85 that's it, you win

[@AliLiz91]

I really love grass types as well. Keep these coming, Silph! :D

[@skyrogue1977]

How about a Nuzlocke of Platinum with just Gen 1 Pokémon.

[@evankurasu3190]

I did that, plus it was a mono-Poison run. It was wild

[@TheSphero]

Always a good day when my favorite type sees some appreciation! Erika has a surprisingly meta grass monotype team too; Cradilly, Whimsicott, Venusaur, and even Roserade and Tangrowth are all staples or serious contenders for competitive monotype teams.

[@Kitagawa_Senpai]

I love that you put in the Snakes on a Plane reference... I was JUST thinking about it too when I saw the plane... So good

[@MultiEpique]

Not having Vileplume when playing as Erika feels kind of wrong.

[@leohawk776]

Great, now I can only imagine Colress flexing, ripping his shirt and coat, and yelling, "FLASH CANNON!!!"

[@JCaylor2099]

"Whatcha gonna do, when Colress runs wild over you brother!"

[@Roguchii]

I've really been enjoying this series! Nice job

[@JAMAL1620]

6:50 was kinda crazy ngl 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@giovannibianchi1578]

Gotta say, Erika's team really grew on me

[@thpolar3887]

Like a weed?

[@thedude-nf1uf]

W

[@bigslappy823]

Same. Her team planted itself as one of my favorites.

[@kylerscottyyy292]

Agreed. A team rooted in great strategy

[@t.j.helming5534]

Ideas> Best Team video AND Best Team playthrough for Brawly! Gotta advocate for my favorite type in my favorite region!!! Also another thought> maybe an Omega ruby or Alpha Sapphire with a Nuzlocke team like your best team series, but you can only use gym leader Ace pokemon... so, 1. Nosepass (Probopass) 2. Hariyama 3. Manetric 4. Torkoal 5. Slaking 6. Altaria 7. Solrock/Lunatone and... 8. Milotic

[@anthonyanglemyer]

Another challenge won, congrats! Now, I hope things are good with you, as far as technical stuff, for this channel and the WBL. Happy Easter!

[@RDPendleton]

I'd like to see you tackle a game with Falkner's best team. Mainly because I know he's got a Lugia and you hardly ever get to use legendaries so it might be fun.

[@bigslappy823]

I wanna see one with Byron's team. He always gets ragged on about being the weakest Sinnoh gym leader so he needs some redemption.

[@ASoulphoenix]

Ty for using my suggestion for a run, feels good to see them perform well

[@melzbellz7768]

U know it's a good day when u get Silph notifications let's gooooo!!!! 😁😁😁

[@purehyper124]

2:44 Plants in autumn are dropping leaves to conserve water during winter.

[@nonogallagher3173]

Every time you do a grass run you leave Vileplume in the PC 😭😭😭 Justice for VP

[@Andre_sa06]

Love this series Silph! Keep it up!

[@BrandonJames2016]

Always love waking up to seeing your Pokémon runs it’s always so entertaining

[@alexandertorrez7002]

What makes silph my uncontested favorite poketuber is his quick jokes and sense of humor.

[@karp.mp3]

you sound like a Pokemon npc lol

[@montelvontaviouspore]

Him and Antlerboy are the best 😂

[@gaminggoddess85]

"Quick jokes" read off of a script.

[@Keydicken]

Silph Sunday!! So excited to see you use a huge handful of my favourite Pokémon, like Victreebel, Whimsicott, Roserade, and Cradilly! I hope everyone has a great Easter if they celebrate, or just a great regular Sunday if you don’t 🥳

[@Chibigirl4477]

I live in Baltimore and I'm not far from where the bridge was. Me and my mom heard it clasps but at the time we didn't know what it was. Dude were we shocked a few hours later 😢

[@chanwinsern8814]

OK. Based on the recent lineup, I'd like to request Blaine with his fire team or Giovanni and his ground type

[@jonh8641]

No really?

[@chanwinsern8814]

@@jonh8641 then, would you prefer Koga with the poison team or Sabrina and her Psychic team?

[@hugoacevedo6134]

This is the best moment of the day, thanks silph✨️

[@Warriorcat_Youtube]

Tbf, Brycen is established to BE a former actor returned to the art in BW2 when you visit his town. Apparently he suffered a severe injury during his career, leaving him to eventually take up the Gym mantle untile the OG BW. He seems pretty happy with reborn passion in film

[@paduz]

Am I the only one sleeping to silph's videos?

[@Selsy251]

Life can wait. Silph videos can’t

[@gaminggoddess85]

In honor of Pokemon Legends Z-A's announcement, I'll raise you that AZ can't beat an X or Y nuzlocke without his busted Eternal Flower Floette.

[@noahfenn1462]

And suddenly life was full of bliss and happiness (Silph just posted)

[@dharaneshg4764]

22:00 snakes on a plane reference was so perfect over there

[@sammy0493]

Can't wait for Koga team 🔥🔥🔥

[@MrMovieMaker116]

Happy Easter! Fitting that you're playing a grass team today!

[@userWeavile666]

Gotta stay in order. Koga next 🙌🙌

[@jinho_sshi]

I love Erika, but why wasn’t your starter an oddish, since Vileplume is her signature Pokémon???

[@IceGavel]

Y'know, before you started these Gym Leader challenges, the monotype Hardcores were getting a little stale. But these Gymlockes (please, feel free to steal that) add an interesting twist to things, I look forward to seeing more. Maybe give a Sabrina team a run sometime, Psychic's always been my personal favorite Type.

[@Hypernerd22]

18:06 I agree venusaur is my favorite too very underrated

[@PedroHenrique-mk5zi]

Oh, one of the first nuzlockes on the channel was Grass types on Black 2. Sort of a rerun.

[@jacksonherring-x8o]

SILPH. Love the channel man, always have always will! Do you think you’d ever do a hardcore nuz for rom hacks like radical red??

[@SentretPeanut]

“I could tell Ingo about his fate here in the future… but nah… who cares?” 😭😭😆😆

[@Doogle141]

That snakes on a plane reference was gold, hats off to you for that!

[@rb4734]

You keep on growing Silph!

[@shinx0509]

16:36 it’s the toothless song 😂 I know it’s the driftveil city theme

[@norbelarchilla5578]

I really want to see someone iconic next, like Red, Cynthia, Cyrus, Prof. Oak, Gold/Silver, etc

[@jabariharris9796]

Was not expecting the Baltimore bridge cameo. Good video

[@bryanmatthews3797]

Happy Easter everyone!

[@raiynen]

it's terrifying to think how absolutely horrid your luck has been, while still getting fairly convincing wins.

[@Rydeman2]

Do a run of B2W2 in CHALLENGE MODE. You choose the type.

[@mike_kracken6396]

Grass type are my favorite and Erika is my favorite gym leader so this was just awesome!

[@cesarflamenco9484]

Nice to see Erika get the respect she deserves. Seeing how many people consider her the worst Kanto Gym Leader, seeing her team put in work like this was a relief.

[@Lockerft]

Koga/Sabrina in Sword. I've been watching your channel since black 2 with steel types. I'm so happy you went with my idea.

[@HarrisonMartin]

I'm so into this series - can't wait for the Koga video!

[@TerraEmperor1]

I guess the grass is greener where you water it. Great run 👍🏾

[@itsme558]

excited for future nuzlokes its really better to watch than do ur also very smart for doing this once u ran out of types for future nuzlokes u can do gym leaders, E4, Champion, MC, Rival, Special Boss,and Special chars😂😂

[@SHAN-nj9xg]

Like this if u like grass types 🌿🪴🌿

[@TheFamilyMoments]

You should do cheren's team in any Pokémon game!! Maybe his black and white team and some add on from his gym team from black and white 2! I feel like he's a stratigizing gym leader so playing as him I feel would be fun

[@petersterken9801]

The next time you play Black 2/White 2... could you do the Cynthia battle as a "bonus" battle?

[@Cody-gu8li]

I wanna see bugsy mega beedrill sweep in a hardcover nuzelock

[@RavenBlackHero]

The Roselia line is one of my favorites, glad to see them get some of the spotlight this run!

[@oskar9343]

Did anyone noticed that at the start of the video the gym badges are from black and white instead of black and white 2? its not important but when the weaknesses were showed i started to think about the match ups and noticed this small mistake.

[@FlamingPhoenix88]

Me just noticing silph hasn't done an ice run in an year

[@camdenericksen8110]

Silph, REALLY enjoying seeing these new videos using characters teams in different games 😁 by chance, could you do Sabrinas team in Pokemon X?? Loved the video keepem comin brotha🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@SolLunaris]

Wait a second that isn't a mareep.

[@comfyghost]

i'd say that sudden baltimore bridge mention hit me like truck, but honestly it hit me more like a cargo ship.

[@aksharpatel2619]

You should do a run that makes you only use Pokémon with a certain amount of stats, For example, only Pokémon with stats under 300 total or something like that

[@alexlambert2979]

If you connect a save from black 2 or white 2 to black or white, you find out that Brycen actually quit being a gym leader to go back to being an actor

[@AlphaClubY2K]

Something id love to see even though its gym leaders is either silver in heart gold/Soulsilver & Giovanni in fire red/ leaf green

[@Lloydproductions4171]

Nice work 👍

[@pancakelad]

Not going to lie, little crazy you put the bridge footage in The video. That’s a video of 6 people dying in a horrific accident. Not exactly what I expect watching a nuzlock.

[@poke2444]

a back to back upload, my lawrd

[@quinceekingston4335]

I have always thought victreebel was underrated. I used to use one q decent amount and was disappointed in original gold and silver that you couldn't get one until post gane

[@emiliozebra]

This was a really interesting playthrough!

[@mirror857]

Not too fond of using the grass type (except for the Snivy line), but Erika was one of my childhood Pokegirl crushes; and I’m sure her team can beat Black 2, even though it will be mostly thanks to your skills lol

[@RedDragonForce2]

Can you beat Pokémon Let’s Go Hardcore Nuzlocke? (Species Clause active to guarantee the potential for a full run.

[@tristenarcher3826]

Great run silph the elite 4 was a blast to watch

[@kstanni87]

That Ghetsis battle was insane.

[@sharkpog4280]

26:00 Doesn't the Mold Breaker from Haxorus ignore Prankster?

[@DARKESTMAGICIAN]

I would love to see you beat the game as Ash and just have the best team out of all of them

[@CharizardFan_og]

27:39 - I would have gone with teaching Roseraid weatherball, unless it is not available and combined with Liligant's sunny day...

[@cesarflamenco9484]

I don't think Weather Ball was nearly as available for Pokemon in this Gen than in later gens. Roserade was able to learn via Move Releaner, but that's really it.

[@RedDragonForce2]

@ 0:29 Are you high, Silph? 8 weak to ice… very true. 7 weak to fire and flying… I understand. 8 weak to bug… ah HELL NAH!!! You only have FOUR weak to Bug.

[@mateolara7035]

Have you done a Sabrina nuzlocke yet or a Falkner?

[@YourCasualPunk]

The power of Grass and leaf blade

[@ymac1999]

*Thinks of a "DISGUSTING" plan* The Plan: Petal Dance

[@montelvontaviouspore]

Looking forward to the next WLB match 😊

[@draculinascoffin4512]

I would love to see a Lance or Agatha nuzlocke!

[@wyattoknife4413]

Eating that berry with bug buzz with big brain energy

[@wyattoknife4413]

Also HYBER BEAM 😂😂😂😂

[@kissarmy7212]

Gotta see a koga run!

[@EmilioL12]

9:03 in the anime he is a famous actor and martial artist 😮

[@RedDragonForce2]

Fun fact: I thought Whimsicott was part Flying. Weird, right?

[@blitz82]

Have you ever played the pokemon firered -Hardcore challenge hack rom? it took me like 50+ attempts to beat brock and i never got close to beating misty.

[@Deltalancer1]

As someone who grows lilies and has a garden, seeing liligant appear was a treat ❤

[@themanofmovies]

lets see Bruno and his fighting types KO all the other gens.

[@carter106]

Great video !!

[@TerreiSingularity]

*Frick* my idea was so close! On the lieutenant surge video I asked for "can Gardenia best black and white" I got the type, and region right. But not the gym leader or game lol

[@Baeur]

I think tackle is a physical move so your sp def wasn't helping

[@garchomp8273]

00:37 most random thing i think iv heard in a while

[@woutvandekaart8927]

Good run like always

[@eerieeric834]

Are you doing every gym leader because if you do then great Keep it up
