Monotype Hardcore Nuzlocke Ruleset:
(1) If a Pokémon faints, it must be permanently boxed or released.
(2) Only the first type-specific Pokémon encountered in each Route/Area can be caught.
(3) No Legendaries/Mythicals, duplicates, or same-evolution-line Pokémon can be caught or used. If a duplicate is encountered, the next unique type-specific Pokémon encounter can be caught.

(5) No Items can be used in battle (Held Items are allowed).
(6) Party Pokémon levels are limited to the highest level Pokémon of the next Gym Leader or Elite 4 Member. So long as your Pokémon are at or below the level cap when the Gym Leader/Elite 4 Member battle starts, they can level up mid-battle.

(8) No connecting with other games for the purposes of importing Pokémon, Items, etc.

Rather than burden you with all that's been going on, I'll just say that things are moving forward now and we're back in action. I appreciate the patience and hope you enjoy the video!

[@airimee]

Uproar prevents sleeping.

[@mognum5136]

Let's go your back, that's all that matters ! And with a really cool nuzlocke at that !

[@potitishogun2961997]

You gotta catch up on Uproar mechanics 'XD When a Pokémon is Uproaring and you try to put it to sleep, it fails. And if a Pokémon is Uproaring WHILE a Pokémon is asleep, sleep will be cured. Simply put, if there's a stomping, raging, screaming beast around, you can't take a nap lol

[@Dbswrath]

Hey SilphSpectre idk if you read your KZbin comments or not and I know this is a random question but you've inspired me too quit my job and start making videos too I was just wondering how much money you make a year from a KZbin?

[@xgormo9805]

@@DbswrathHomie, don’t ever quit your job until you’re making a sustainable living off of youtube

[@loganb8488]

14:12 Silph, uproar always wakes up sleeping Pokémon on the field so you essentially put him so sleep just to wake him up lol

[@sina0266]

Well silph, you know that uproar wakes every Pokémon back up? Right? Right?

[@dollenrm]

Probably not, its one of those interactions you might never see even playing pokemon as your job lol.

[@Zorayah]

"and it woke up right away! Whyyyy???" Because of uproar lmao, I was thinking the same.

[@jamtone4492]

....he made reference to this whan he sleep powdered the uproar vigaroth saying that sleep powder didnt work on the last turn of uproar...

[@DrFoggyPants]

@@jamtone4492 It could easily be a brainfart moment. You remember it being able to stop pokemon from falling asleep, but forget that it also wakes them up

You should probably force evolutions next randomizer so you’re not fighting Slowpokes and Trapinches in the Elite 4 lol.

I don't know why he didn't do that haha. It would have even been more of a challenge!

Well he fought legendaries so that counts for something

[@mattc1647]

[@maragazh9993]

18:35 Rototiller is a very strange move with a stranger history. In gen 6, when the move was introduced, 7 pokemon could learn it by level up, all of them at level 1, and all of them being later stage evolution pokemon, so they can't actually get the move without a move relearner. There were also 6 other pokemon lines that could get the move through breeding, but the only new pokemon from gen 6 that could learn the move was Diggersby. In gen 7, Mudbray could learn it at level 8 (aswell as Mudsdale), and Tap Bulu and Alolan Dugtrio. Finally being added to some pokemon! Gen 8, gone. Can't select the move if you traded a pokemon forward. Same with gen 9. The hardly used move is forgotten. This is a contender for the least known move in pokemon history. Also, incase you missed it, what it does is raise the Attack and Special Attack of grass type pokemon that are on the field, by one stage. It is a ground type move, and won't work for or against pokemon that are underground or flying in the sky or as flying types (screw you, tropius). Work up for grass types only, but you might be able to use it on an ally and yourself in double battles, at the risk of giving it to the opponent in all battles. By the way, the move can only be learned by 3 grass types total, only 2 in gen 6, Cacturne and Parasect, who both need to get it through breeding. This move could also be used in Super Mystery Dungeon, and was used once in the manga. Such a weird, strange move. I have never seen anything like it. I have never seen anyone use it.

[@ALittleMessi]

I only know the move from mudbray, figured it was a signature move or something

[@bryndenrivers1697]

That Vigoroth 100% had Super Luck, no way all those crits happened "normally".

[@satm931]

It had Color Change. Just got super lucky lol.

[@mikepost1630]

Those early route encounters were brutal.

[@KingCanada]

Welcome back, Silph. And don't feel bad if you need to take time off again at some point. We'll all be here patiently waiting for the next video. Also, in regards to what you said at 2:54, Birch is only chased by a Zigzagoon in Emerald. In Ruby and Sapphire, it's Poochyena, just like in ORAS.

[@MrGojira95]

So this guy can take time off, and his viewers can come back, but when I take time off, views go away as if I never existed?

[@zimonzieclown1633]

That's a pretty well-rounded endgame team you've got there, especially for a randomizer.

[@13E7gamerz]

In the future maybe you can force full evolutions after like level 36 and/or randomize with Pokémon of similar strength. That way the Elite Four and such get something a bit more threatening than a Patrat 😅 Still a fun randomizer run to watch, especially the insane (bad) luck at the beginning!

[@grieveromega6060]

The Drought Venusaur plus Charizard was one of the coolest double battle teams I've ever seen. Gen 1 love ❤

[@armaggedon390]

14:09 Terrakion woke up immediately because Uproar does that.

Recently watched the X Randomized Nuzlocke so pleasantly surprised to see this one after a small drought of videos. Thoroughly enjoyed. Hoping to see another soon!

[@SeNki3301]

You know it'll be an epic run when the Pokemon on the thumbnail is a mega evolution.

[@BananaLoaf77]

The editing in this video is just perfection 😂

[@tylerthorne4451]

14:14 You put Terrakion to sleep then woke him up with uproar. The move doesn't allow for sleep while its being used. Honestly that Noctowl sounds like a pain in the butt to have irl.

[@Dynamic0NE]

Combee with a "quirky" nature hahahahahaha. Might be the greatest pokemon you've ever caught by farrrr!

[@gheringrosario1635]

Loving these randomizer vids ty for all the content!!

[@cesarflamenco9484]

This was a welcome surprise. Nice to see Silph tackle ORAS on for a run. Considering the kind of run this was, i guess it makes sense why he went with the remakes over the originals like usual. Overall a fun run. Funny how this run began as a mess of bad luck but ultimately ended with a pretty capable and excellent team. That Venusaur with Drought with Mega Charizard Y was just too good.

[@toes_inursalad69]

I always enjoy listening to your videos while playing my own Nuzlocks! It helps keep me going 💪

[@drexelspivey872]

I just started a randomized soullink nuzlocke on Omega ruby just last week, and you're posting this !!!!!! I'm sooooo happy !

@ 14:19 Apparently you forgot this, but Uproar removes sleep condition and prevents it from happening while actively being used.

[@EpicAlucard]

The screaming groundhog at Norman totally threw me off. 🤣

[@rue8638]

Clicked this thinking fire…. Surprised with RANDOM!!! So hyped, randomized runs are my favourite :) Would you consider doing a randomizer that keeps the encounters the same, but randomizes the types/abilities/move sets? Edit: oooooo this one does have random abilities!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, silf, you proceed to not disappoint me. Your editing is getting great, and thank you for commentating over a lot of the things you do. It helps me as a person who is a Blind/Visually Impaired understand what’s happening on the screen. I am using dictation to write all this out, so that’s my reason for good grammar and spelling. But yeah, you saying what Pokémon is coming out, what move they use, what move you use, what you find, etc., is really helpful to me. And I appreciate it a lot!

[@Amelia4111]

WE DON'T SAY ASS IN POKEMON! TRY SAYING BUTT!

[@rpglover5955]

For 14:15, Uproar woke the opposing trainer's pokemon up because that's how that move functions. It doesn't only prevent your pokemon from being put to sleep while ongoing (as in the user that activates the move), it also turn 1 wakes up any pokemon being hit by that move, as long as they don't have soundproof (which would make the move fail). The correct choice was to go for Echoed Voice, which doesn't wake up other pokemon they hit with that move. This would happen either before they make the move or at the end of the turn (if Noctowl was slower)

[@DarkLordGanondorf190]

A true randomizer challenge. There are randomised challenges that consider the tier of the Pokémon that is being replaced.

[@kross4998]
