Pokémon White 2 Hardcore Nuzlocke - Bug Types Only! (No items, No overleveling)

[@DocZ]

Again thank you guys so much for the support! I tried to do something different, by doing both voiceover and facecam. Do you guys prefer this, just voiceover, or just facecam? Let me know in the comments!

[@elik5832]

Voice over

[@elik5832]

Actually any

[@Moxtrots]

Face Cam, you cute

[@MLGProMaster-tu9tz]

@@rboss5919 bug bite is just a really good move tbh, bug has been getting better over the years, same can't be said for ice types tho sadly.

[@rboss5919]

@@MLGProMaster-tu9tz Fairy kinda killed the only reason ice types were kinda relevant. I mean there are some good ice types but they're either extremely vulnerable to things not going their way (like Weavile running into sometjing that either outspeeds/prioritizes it or it cant OHKO.) or the pokemon itself is really good despite the typing (like Lapras). Honestly, they should probably make Ice neutral against steel and give it one at least one more resistance to make it fairly useable.

[@japethspeaketh7034]

20:35 There was no need for using X-Scissor to break Magnezone's Sturdy. Your Pinsir has the Mold Breaker ability, meaning that it ignores Magnezone's ability & could have easily 1-Hit KOed Magnezone with Dig.

Runners dont like to do that game because its pacing is super slow. It's by far the slowest to start, which makes resetting for good pokemon a nightmare and it has the most frequent and longest cutscenes in the series which makes retrying portions after failure awful.

[@cynicalthomas3206]

Feels bad having to watch my favourite Team member bite the bullet, but I guess it was a necessity, great run had a lot of fun watching parts of it live as well!

[@typhlosion7872]

I always try to use Dwebble for Elesa, even when I have ground types, just because Stealth Rock is extremely helpful for her Volt Switch spam. All of her pokemon have options to hit ground types, so it makes them slightly less useful. Rocks stacks on a surprising amount of damage when she spams Bolt Switch

[@Ludiloco]

Yeah Stealth Rocks wrecks her team. Did it on my run and it made the fight surprisingly easy.

[@galvsparks6295]

I did this on my hardcore nuzlock of BW and she’s gone from potential run killer to no deaths thanks to that move alone

[@realar]

This is why I LOVE Volcarona, IF you start with Larvesta, it's a freaking BEAST in Nuzlockes. No risks with getting the egg over using the wild Volcarona.

[@CyanFeild]

When you lost heracross so soon after losing galvantula and crustle... i honestly was unsure if you if you'd have to just start a new run lol. Shout outs to leavanny for holding the team down almost the entire game.

[@marvin5624]

That Heracross encounter is more lucky than you think. It's a .25% chance on like a 20% chance for a Pokémon to even show up.

[@rattyxoxo7397]

It’s actually just the 0.25% chance, since that factors in pokemon only having a 20% chance to appear. The 4 pokemon there (Combee at 15%, Leavanny at 4%, Pinsir at 0.75%, Heracross at 0.25%) only consist of 20% of spawns in the grotto

[@Ando1428]

It was the original white version. That made me realize that I always caught a bunch of bug pokemon. I never really searched for them as I'm not a completionist or a nuzloker. It's just sometimes when you run through they give you something to smear on trees or the fact that the bug tournament was there or that was a good way of catching strong early game pokemon. Bam bug type. Forest areas bam more bugs. By the time I grew up to complete my dex (I don't do living dex I do level dex.)

[@pachipower417]

Great run, but you could have made it easier by getting a venipede from lostlorn forest near nimbasa. It wouldn’t have made the run instantly easy but having another fully evolved bug type would help (you could potentially get one really early on route 20 dark grass but I think that dark grass is locked off til after the first gym so you’d need to get sewaddle for that)

[@pachipower417]

You could’ve also gotten a combee there so ignore this if you got something like male combee and figured it was too insignificant to bring up

I mean venipede doesn't do anything in the rest of the game. The added poison type is virtually useless
