Still have not seen a Fire Red/Leaf Green Hardcore Fire Nuzlocke. Charmeleon vs Misty at level 21 ( maybe 22 with edging to level up on Staryu) With the right nature, speed ivs, and Secret Power, it might just be possible to outspeed, smash with Secret Power and either Crit or Paralyze, and allow you to win, or gamble with smokescreen for water pulse miss.

Nuzlocke Idea : Kecleon Type Run 1 st encounter / starter - has to be the same type as the 1st gym is (rock if you are playing Pearl) After obtaining a badge you can get another encounter depending on what the next gym type is (grass if you are playing Pearl), repeat until the final badge. Bonus challenge : Must use Kecleon if you can get it as a viable encounter (ignoring the gym badge catching rule) Really enjoying you content Silph, keep up the good work.

Great video, go gen 3! A word of advice that could have helped for the first gym where every EV mattered: EV's are applied at level up AND when deposited in the PC (so level 100 pokemon can still br EV trained). But what that means is that if you deposited and withdrew your Torchic right before going into the Roxanne battle, you could have slightly buffed your stats and the odds of winning.

its a shame not only slugma can only be obtained in a second route on emerald, but the fact roxanne has a second geodude in there its 100% impossible to do it with only a level cap torchic, even if it had perfect IVs it just wouldnt cut it. if only it could learn bullet seed (i mean hes still a bird and i think some of the flying types do learn it...) great video as always silph, using my favorite starter at my favorite gen once again.
@Zerox_Z212 жыл бұрын
It's technically possible I suppose, if you get enough crits and misses from Roxanne's Pokemon. How many resets is that gonna take though? Even without actually resetting the run.
@unkindled64102 жыл бұрын
@@Zerox_Z21 you would probably need 5-6 consecutive crits just to get past the geodudes not to mention that they would have to miss all their attacks or use harden (ember will always hit harder than any other move torchic can get at that point but the AI can be wonky with status moves anyway so they do have a chance to waste their turn with it) which is simply an absurd mathematical improbability. a 100% perfect torchic could probably safely setup growls assuming at least a first turn miss, but that would only be good for the first geodude. and honestly if it isnt to make complete resets everytime you might as well just allow the lv cap to be 1 lv higher to get combusken. thats literally the only impossible hurdle in the run.

Always fun watching your content. BTW, have you ever considered a solo-type run? So instead of pokemon of one type, you only use pokemon that have one type. So dragonair would be legal as a pure dragon type, but dragonite would be illegal because it's a dragon/flying hybrid. I think it'd be super interesting considering that solo-type are a minority, and many solo-type 'mons are hybrid with their final form, giving even fewer good encounters.
