Can I beat a Pokémon X Hardcore Nuzlocke using only PSYCHIC Types?

[@MatsuyoRific]

That wasn't a purse, it was a 3DS. And as someone who used to be a teenage girl, I can confirm that some of us do indeed take our handheld games to bed.

[@seich-of-lacan-getter514]

0:30 thats not a purse, thats a Limited edition 3ds

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

Thank you for pointing this out

[@yunateyang9194]

Was about to say that! 😭

[@0ptimusLime]

I have said Limited Edition 3DS XL. Love it. I even bought both of the Pikachu themes in the Nintendo E Shop back in the day to match it.

[@sera-chan8194]

Thanks for saying that! I was gonna complain too :D Especially because I went to bed and fall asleep playing on my DS almost every day as a teen. Now as an adult I do the same but with my switch :D

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

@@sera-chan8194 In hindsight, he did say this was his first time playing as the girl character, so maybe he just didn't realize it at first...

[@vanne9021]

the fennekin line and espeon being my favorite pokemon ever, watching them getting this much use in the playthrough made me so happy 😭

[@pedroribeirodesousa9152]

I like that you match the team sizes makes it more fun and adds challenge to the nuzlockes that tend to be overplanned on KZbin nowadays ,still the kalos dex is amazing for mono runs there’s so much variety shame team flare especially the admins didn’t get more flourished teams

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah I try to always match team sizes now just as an added bonus. The Kalos dex does have a ton of variety

[@Stf-le9ot]

In the words of nuzlocke Joe "Aslong as I can keep it along live enough" when catching the meditite 😂 I had to double check that's what I heard haha. Also quality video again bro

[@NuzlockeJoe]

In my defense, I did keep it long enough to evolve. So there’s that.

[@capslockpenguin7518]

I had to double check that part too, lol.

Awesome video Nice to see a return to the psychic monolocke Always appreciate a video where Best Eeveelution Espeon can shine

[@rb4734]

Simply looooove Kalos here. Played through the games with each type at least once! Go on Joe!

[@LouiseHeavenly]

Males Ralts do evolve into Gardevoir, if you don't have a Dawn stone. I made that mistake once before when I played Omega Ruby. I wanted a Gallade and I made my male Kirlia evolve into a Gardevoir before Wally's final battle.

[@purehyper124]

30:58 Thanking a game creature that can't do anything to help you, and hopeful not praying, to a made-up game character. This is a light matter.

[@0ptimusLime]

Let the record show that one of the default nickname options was "S-kins"....skins.

[@Niall_Sene]

I appreciate the nicknaming theme, but I feel psychologists would've fit a tad better lol. Who on the dev team for this game thought it was a good idea to put three Lysander battles within minutes of each other. Either way, this was pretty entertaining, excited for whatever comes next.

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah, those back to back battles are more a chore than anything.

[@dethkruzer]

I'm less than 8 minutes in, and I'm already a fan of the naming scheme

[@flareblitz198]

I like how the naming theme is famous scientists. Makes sense until you remember that psychic powers contradict all science

[@NuzlockeJoe]

I did the same thing for my first psychic nuzlocke. Basically, I frequently misspell physics as psychic, which is where the idea came from

[@deantrail6789]

To be fair, modern science would seem like magic or psychic powers to someone before the modern era.

[@davidbulin8310]

Is using the special training on the lower screen not allowed in nuzlickes?

[@joeyteter9383]

Chimecho and Reuniclus (ESPECIALLY Chimecho) are two of my favorite Pokémon overall so I hope you use them throughout the run. I’m at the point where you catch Chingling, and it would make sense to be a part steel type imo too lol

[@NuzlockeJoe]

In that case, I hope you weren't too disappointed.

[@joeyteter9383]

@@NuzlockeJoe it was rather unfortunate, hopefully I’ll get to see it in a future run….hopefully 😬

[@nightspawnson-of-luna4936]

What a Coincidence, at this same time I'm doing my Poison type only run of X... It's not even a nuzlocke, but boy is it a struggle (Especially because I didn't get to have Carrie the Espurr for once...Also that first Gym...It was brutal...I only had Beedrill...so Infestation was just...a death sentence)

[@Gimbothy]

Disliked for reuinclus slander, never disrepect the blobs

[@NuzlockeJoe]

My apologies, I didn’t know people were so defensive about their blobs.

[@JunKurosu]

Finally a 3ds games nuzlocke

[@firstswordcorvus7368]

In my experience, even though Reuniclus isn't one of my favorites. I find it to be one of the tanky psychic types, and isn't too bad for going physical if you got an adamant one. Though similar to Espeon its stats are a little spread out to be a very hard hitting psychic. Though calm mind always helps and iirc Reuniclus can learn baton pass for some fun strategies. I've never been able to play X and Y sadly so idk if it can use it there. I got a 3DS really late and only had about a year with it before its eShop was shutdown

[@PsychicJaylen]

My team for this game was Delphox Alakazam Gardevoir Malamar Espeon And Grumpig but I liked your video. You did a great job on it

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Thanks! Alakazam would have been on my team if he didn’t run away. And I do wish I had gotten an inkay just to try him out, but exgecute worked out well enough

[@blaze9327]

I had no idea about the berry thing!

[@NuzlockeJoe]

Yeah me neither

[@neo_b]

this run was very passive aggressive lol

[@canisludus1001]

Hello, I'm from Brazil, I would like to suggest trying only with legendary pokemons. It would be fun to watch.

[@eyemaknut]

Espeon love! ❤❤

[@EeveelutionLover22]

Ill admit the psychic type isnt my favorite but some of the pokemon have really cool designs in my opinion mega medicham gallade metagross all pretty cool designs

[@rb4734]

Recently used a Solosis in a team. Liked it to bits! Very powerfull. I'm like you, slow equals bad to me too. But sometimes slow can be good i guess

[@NuzlockeJoe]

They can, and he had good special defense so he can take some hits. But with a team of espeon, gardevoir, and Starmie that guy takes a a back seat

[@StylesNation717]

Slow pokemon equals bad. Enter Snorlax Slowbro slowking and mega Venusaur

[@rb4734]

​@@NuzlockeJoeI totally get that!

[@rb4734]
