Pokemon Emerald Hardcore nuzlocke using only eeveelutions

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

Nice touch having your character want to be a Kimono girl, considering that in the Gen 3 games the player moves from Johto to hoenn

[@thatrandomvideoguy98]

"i can choose eevee, eevee, it eevee" Me: dear God... "Believe it or not, i chose the eevee" Me: no....

[@ToaArcan]

Just a note: You _can_ evolve Eevee into its Gen II evolutions in RSE. There's no visible day/night cycle, but it evolves into Umbreon if the clock says AM, and Espeon if it says PM. It's a bit weird, but I had an Eevee egg traded over to my Ruby cart that evolved into Espeon way back when.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Really? I guess I just assumed it wouldn't work. I guess I never had an eevee in Hoenn to test it

[@ashleyvanbeek7045]

@@NuzlockeJoe yup. it's actually the only way to get espeon and umbreon in gen 3 since there's no day/night cycle in FRLG

[@flareblitz198]

The reason Slimy's name is spelled wrong is because Spikey stole Slimy's letter E.

[@aukusuke9546]

RZE doesn't have a visual night and time cycle BUT it has the internal clock so time pass in the game (so time events like berries and soal cave happen) so you can get Espeon and Unbreon by evolving Eevee depending on what hour it is (you can check ant clock or just go to soal cave and check the tide)

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I knew there was an internal clock, but I guess I just assumed since the day/night cycle was removed it wouldn't work. Apparently I was wrong.

[@diegoc8795]

Once again Penny is back in charge!

[@Eserchie]

Idea for a Nuzlocke - limited to starter + 1 pokemon for each gym beaten, which must be of that gyms type - so if in Gen1, you have starter only til you beat Brock, then you can add a rock type, then once you get cascade badge you can add a water type as your third pokemon, and so on.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

That's not a bad idea! What would you call it?

[@Eserchie]

@@NuzlockeJoe No Idea. I also don't know which gen would work best for it - it wouldn't work too well if there isn't any mon of the right type available at the right point.

[@ricksdarkness3257]

​​@@EserchieI think this would be tough to do in Kanto. Hoenn would be more doable (except the early game Geodude or Makuhita from Granite Cave)

[@Eserchie]

@@ricksdarkness3257 I think the only water type you can add to fight Surge would be Gyrados lol. Very helpful there.

[@ricksdarkness3257]

@@Eserchie yep. Geodude right before Misty, Magikarp/Gyarados before Surge and Voltorb before Erika (no repels before Brock so getting a Pikachu after Surge is pretty much impossible)

[@andersonantunesdeleu8591]

Yes Joe! Brilliant idea! The eeveelutions are great choice as expected. And you are phenomenal as expected too! Congrats on one more successful challenge! Best regards...

[@ivanbluecool]

I love Eevee so much. Great Mon just wish they buffed his EVOS to have some extra stats or skills and moves

[@NuzlockeJoe]

All the eeveelutions have 525 base stat totals, on par with the fully evolved starters. Those seem like pretty good stats to me

[@ivanbluecool]

@@NuzlockeJoe yeah but they should be better spread out and give them better level up moves especially in older gens where tms are definitely needed. Like each eevee gets a basic move like Espeon getting confusion upon level up but depending on level it turns to pay wave or psychic.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

@@ivanbluecool yeah, that I’ll agree with. Also, the moves they do learn are really late. Like in gen 4, leafeon won’t learn leaf blade till level 71! It’s ridiculous

[@ivanbluecool]

@@NuzlockeJoe meanwhile let's go Eevee is just a super Eevee overall. Hopefully they keep adjusting each gen

[@JazzyKitsune69]

Honestly I was hoping Scarlet and Violet would have given us paradox versions of Pikachu and Eevee

[@DillyUrban]

Alright the the "Very eevee" got me, that's a thumbs up from me.😂

[@SargeWolf010]

0:12 hold up Eevee is available in black and white in post game from Fennel

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I thought that was in white/black 2?

[@SargeWolf010]

@@NuzlockeJoe yes aswell but there is a wild Eevee spawns in Castalia Park it's between 1-5% encounter rate tho

[@NuzlockeJoe]

@@SargeWolf010 I think that’s also in bw2. veekun.com/dex/pokemon/eevee/locations

[@rb4734]

Eevee! Nice. Hard to name a favourite. Jolteon was my first love, but Vaporeon, Leafeon and Glaceon are top runners too!

[@kaimobley5324]

I think Vaporeon can be slimy since it's made entirely out of water but also it can clear Acid Armor. Which oddly enough makes perfect sense with it being made of 100% water

[@user-mg8gb8gm7i]

I just recently got a link cable and second gameboy and was so excited to be able to play through Emerald with eevees.... only to find out that it can't be traded over until you get the national dex :( I guess this video will have to fill that void in my heart lol

[@user-mg8gb8gm7i]

Found out you can trade from colosseum to emerald and bypass the restrictions. Just bred up a team of eevees in a new emerald play through and my dream is alive again! lol

[@dextervepps8794]

I'm kinda surprised, since only gen 3, that you didn't have a base eevee for slot 6.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I could have, but he would never have been used, so it would feel a bit too sad.

[@mazharsiddiqi7288]

Awesome video as always

[@prax078]

Great video Joe ❤

[@tomongvue6934]

Can u do a nuzlocke with the different oricorio

[@GamerVSgame23]

Eevee is my favorite Pokémon

[@coldloyalty]

Its the real slimy shadey

[@fleezyp]

Casually earthquaking flying type Pokemon…

[@richarddill692]

No. You actually spelled slimy right.

[@cousinjack1184]

He don't spell good some tims

[@Scorbunzx]

I liked leafeon but glaceon and Jolteon are my favorites.

[@thekakeking9400]

Espeon should have been named Kitty and Umbreon should have been named Bunny. Or at least Jewely and Glowy.

[@SonicMeters]

Cool run with eevee

[@Niall_Sene]

Despite the fact that Hoenn is my favourite region and Emerald is my favourite game, I don't think I've ever realised the lack of Eevee. Also, did only using 5 Pokémon instead of 6 make any difference to the challenge?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Not really, considering the eeveelutions are awesome, and I rarely have a full team of 6 in general runs anyway since I generally match gym leader and rival team sizes

[@Nick_Slavik]

Has anyone told you that you sound like the PBS Eons guy? 🤔 not that it's a bad thing lol it's just your voice sounds REALLY familiar to me and it reminds me of the PBS Eons guy haha

[@aledjango]

Umbreon better not die!

[@dhavalahir1345]

Espeon is also my second favourite after jolteon

[@Cloundxyx]

love ur videos , 🥰

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Thanks!

[@danielrobinson5870]

When did slimy die? 7:59 he just shows up dead

[@NuzlockeJoe]

You probably realized, but he’s grayed out to indicate he’s not on the team is all

[@mindlessmeat4055]

It's not slime, its mucus.

[@Gashnaw]

I would have hacked in leafeon ore glaceon so you would have a full team of 6.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I thought about adding in another one, but it didn't seem fair to the other.

[@Gashnaw]

@@NuzlockeJoe then add both, and swap between them.

[@thomassmartphone7125]

Spikey is the coolest 🤩

[@Sailor-Khione]

Eevee is the best pokemon and no one can change my mind.

[@matthewmcmillan1337]

Technically eevee is also an eeveeution It’s just the unevolved one

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Is it? To me the term eeveelutions implies and evolution of eevee, but I guess it's not a huge deal one way or the other.

[@ok_iot]

You marked joltteon as dead but don't say why or how? Edit. Never mind, the grey is a visual bug

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I grey out the Pokémon who aren't currently on the team. And if they die, I also grey it out and remove the name. Maybe a bit too similar.

[@ok_iot]

@NuzlockeJoe well it only went grey for a few seconds. Check I think it was the ambush chick 3 battles after the groudon joke.

[@Yourfavouritepianist]

What about using ashes team to complete pokemon games

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I’ve already done several regions with ashes team. Check out this playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLOBSk5lRzwBdGslYxiZaT7SJGoHVeomqy&si=OcZ-s-QHBT8AQUZj

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Espeon of course! He’s clearly the best

[@giacomonicoli3265]

but you couldn't use Umbreon for the first gym?

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Probably could have, but I wanted to get Vaporeon first, since Hoenn is known for having a lot of water

[@olo819]

Autoclick on the video, from time to time I think about eeveelution run. Good to see in action ;)

[@NuzlockeJoe]

This is actually my third or fourth one, so check out the others if this one was interesting. The platinum one was my favorite I think

[@vanhemdall9359]

I suprise you don't choice evevee , its better than eevee 😂😂😂

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I don’t know what you’re talking about. I clearly chose the the best one. Eevee was better than eevee by a mile!

[@ajbeasley2771]

Vaporeons aren’t slimy there moist also who thinks we’re getting the ghost or rock type eeveelution in za or gen 10

[@aledjango]

Good luck and goodbye

[@rb4734]

It is not going to be as eevee as you think 😂

[@butterchicke]

Notice how all the Pokémon’s exp bar is always 0%. Normally training can’t put it at exactly 0% so you definitely cheating levels.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Oh I 100% am using rare candies, I’m not hiding that. That makes the run more about the important battles, and less about spending all this time to grind up

[@fafnir2076]

You spelt spiky wrong
