My Hardcore Nuzlocke Rules:
- If a pokémon faints, it cannot be used anymore and must be boxed for the entire run.
- Set mode must be turned on.
- No in-battle items, such as potions or revives, are allowed. Held items are okay.
- I can only catch the first dark type encounter per route. Separate areas in the wild area/DLC count as separate routes.
- No leveling past the following gym leader’s ace pokémon.
- No Dynamaxing

Did you like the inclusion of the post game for this challenge? And can you guess the naming theme?👀

[@svenverhart5874]

I think the naming theme was Star wars (all the sith/evil bounty hunters)

[@Car-battery]

Definitely something star wars, Probaly the evil people because i recognized a few sith

[@nellander7681]

Yup, Star Wars, all names comes from the Dark Side =D Nicely done, sir.

[@oli.2.]

The sith

[@lucaswhitt6848]

This naming theme was easy for me to guess because Nihilus is my favorite Star Wars character.

[@underrrrstand]

Thank you so much for using the strat with malamar I've seen people sack inkay and I almost screamed at my screen. giving malamar the recognition he deserves.

[@LowQualityCarbink]

Agree

[@ToyCupcakes]

Just what I need to see when I'm sick and dying in bed lmao. Thanks for this I really need a distraction right now!

[@Twig387]

[@m4riog]

[@Christopher-tg4jj]

[@therealzeno2487]

2:05 special attack doesn't register for confusion only attack. Part of the reason people sometimes want 0 ivs on special attackers in competitive

[@SamOrSamual]

Great run! I'm astounded that you breezed past Kabu so easily, he's always a real thorn in my side!

[@BlackReshiram]

great video! i love your hardcore nuzlockes! really wish it wouldve been a little longer but thats okay, its easy to be okay with

[@tgftyyy]

haven’t played a pokémon game since i was like 9 really wish i could but i don’t have a switch and watching these videos are the best kinda like my childhood

[@corbangonzalez4935]

This was pretty good I'm not bothered by you using moltres since it's definitely one of the weaker legendaries

[@rubaiatrabby9177]

The naming theme was star wars sith lords and bounty Hunter What a great video thank you for showing us Twig Ps note: um the death count is missing

[@jesserobles9271]

Great video! Awesome stuff

[@zacharyzorua9961]

Way to cheer me up after a rough day

[@justinkimmerle605]

Oh goodness, you're on a roll my man!!

[@melancholybobbyjoe]

I see Bane my favorite character was in the names, but what about Darth Kreia? Literally the almighty Revan's master and one of the OG siths. I also see you managed to kill Bane in the lamest way possible just like in the show haha!

[@The-Stray-Shadow]

I’m so glad your doing this dark types are my favorite I really hope they add a regional absol

[@sweetwolfsteve5583]

Yay another challenge video

[@latota8309]

Nice Video :D Just to let you know : when you are hitting yourself in confusion, you always will use your ph atck. Tho you cant boost that dmg with nasty plot

[@sarjxpros5562]

Nice Video! Question why did u use nuzleaf to catch pancham?

[@jimmyoyang8543]

The family guy old man got me I'm laughing sooo hard

[@wereplayinggames538]

[@Thomas-oo1bw]

Daaaamn good vid!

[@elijahtaylor245]

I also like dark types and your the best with Pokemon sword with dark types

[@doomfox6241]

I have an OC named Kylo that actually looks similar to the Kylo you had, that death actually hurt me

[@shadowmarauder6033]

Nice inclusion of the DLC, very unexpected. Also once nicknames. The dark side was with you. Mostly.

[@finnwest9479]

In the second evolution he’s a dark type when do you choose cupboard

[@user-rv9wf9zc1p]

I don't really like using Dark Type Pokemon but i only use them to fight Psychic or Ghost Type Pokemon my favorite Dark Type Pokemon is Umbreon

[@kajasletten7318]

LOVVEEE ur content

[@kubix9005]

My boy bisharp !!

[@raybrothers7370]

Your name theme was sith from star wars

[@sirgeraltfromrivia4879]

[@rudrapatel4656]

3:15 wtf???😂😂😂

[@Ralphwoowka]

While you were catching Patcham at the started

[@FelixNuhUh]

Wow !!!!! awesome

[@vandanagupta4240]

Why did got 2 encounters on the same route (nuzleaf and stunfisk)?

[@jaxonbrown29]

no one gonna talk about how he had 21 masterballs when he caught galarian moltres?

[@veronicamorales8553]

I love Umbreon too

[@Faz_S_151]

I was doing a dark type nuzlocke in sword too when this popped up. Coincidence??

[@Twig387]

Yoooo what’re the odds😳

[@skygazer6082]

I think not!

[@alfiesmullet1311]

Malamar with superpower is so broken lol

[@e-man33]

15:07 I really want to know what the song playing in the background is

[@kristopherarmknecht5956]

It went for body press problems because the attack drop it saw more damage

[@FrESHBOn]

Bro when zigzagoon evolved i thought you said "first emo"💀

[@finnwest9479]

You should’ve picked ha he evolves into a dark type in a second evolution

[@The-Stray-Shadow]

He’s by the way absol is a tank it can learn so many good movies

[@lordshaxxy3198]

Emo type da best

[@Twig387]

Emo types are awesome

[@jackryan2694]

I only subscribed because I like turtwig

[@cat_savage05]

Pog, dark types are my favorite ngl :) [also, I think I picked the wrong name lol]

[@fazul5674]

Yo, did you forget about nickit?

[@OpheliaDuskElla]

the naming theme is star wars

[@theunchosenone6807]

Nex time can you please do galrian star tourney too

[@Sergi7989_8]

Can You Do A Fairy Types Nuzlocke?

[@tyquil825]

I really always bored and Pokémon nuzlockes and these r interesting.

[@karinaquinn-rosewilliams7035]

Damn twig

[@angelusingh5614]

Question:why din't he choose nicking as his starter when it can be found at route 1

[@shannonjensen8934]

This is why Pokémon shield would be better for an all dark type run. You wouldn’t have to worry about the fighting gym. I know he purposely did it to make the game harder but the ghost gym would have been the easiest gym ever.

[@shannonjensen8934]

Also is it just me or is Raihan like super easy to beat… like… he doesn’t give me any trouble

[@AMIBROKEORWHAT]

sobble turns into a dark type in its final ?

[@nathanplive9540]

I’m new to the channel

[@aayanahmad8252]

nice video

[@Twig387]

Thanks!:D

[@Estrellarodriquez_]

How about a new rule..? You can’t have more then 5 deaths otherwise you have to start over again? ( sorry for my English I’m from the Netherlands 🥴)

[@TheWeirdKid-he9bt]

Frokies final evolution is greninja you could possibly have gone with that

[@Graboid104]

The froakie line is not in sword and shield

[@TheWeirdKid-he9bt]

Oh I didn't know that

[@cheezzze44]

Hi twig what's ur top 3 favourite pokemon?

[@Ralphwoowka]

Twig I see that you used nuzluef

[@sufyaangaming3230]

You for got zorowak

[@BigMarcello100]

Am I missing something? Is he just catching multiple pokemon on the same route?

[@Not_ThaRealSkye]

Umbreon is the coolest shiny dark type change my mind

[@therealzeno2487]

Greninja

[@ImZclout]

Hé called cinder ace scorbunny lol

[@keithknapp5190]

Now do it again with out Jose of armor

[@tigotime3922]

2:45 how is he faster with base 65 speed when linoone has base 100

[@DarkRedX_X-gang]

[@DarkRedX_X-gang]

[@Amelia4111]

THE E IN KROOKODILE SHOULD BE AFTER THE L!

[@tridevvaranasi6571]

You could’ve got a nitkit on route one

[@Amelia4111]

DO NOT LEAVE OFF THE C IN NICKIT!

[@gage2494]

Are you using some sort of emulator?

[@albeelam3680]

Grab a dark type urshifu bro its a dark type

[@egobladexo]

life orb? I thought no held items in hardcore nuzlockes

[@Darkness-ik4mr]

No they can’t use items in battle but they can use held items

[@aarondeboeck3017]

Is Sandile an dark type

[@Darkness-ik4mr]

Yeah dark ground

[@calebmarshall7892]

[@nayankumarpanigrahi516]

Le me playing Pokemon sword water type run

[@Derp_Luffy]

Why don’t you 50H dark only

[@Incognito-mn7rm]

Didn’t Zeenah die?

[@aghost5841]

But can’t you only catch one Pokémon per route in a Nuzlocke?

[@Squirtle_Squad_Supremacy]

He caught Nuzleaf and he died in another route and found Stunky in said route

[@m00nch1lds]

No offense but do you always have to do a nuzlocke? Like I just want to see an all one type challenge tbh without the nuzlocke

[@Thompa0078]

I was actually early…

[@Twig387]

Indeed you were!💪
