Pokemon Black 2 and White 2, undoubtedly some of the best and hardest Pokemon games out there. Can the Normal type prove itself in the ultimate challenge!? Let's find out!
We've done some hard Pokemon challenges in the past, but usually they were a solo Pokemon challenge run. What if we still did a really difficult challenge... but with a full team using hardcore nuzlocke rules, and with only one type? Today we find out: can I beat a Pokemon White 2 Hardcore Nuzlocke with only Normal types? No items and no overleveling!

I would like to see pokemon moon with only flying types!! Please.😁
You should try to nuzlokcke pokemon platinum but with only steel types. It would make it hard for the end game
Why did you go with the wild minccino instead of the one from the hidden grotto which is guaranteed to have skill link?
Could you do a Platinum run using only the evolutions introduced in Gen 4? (Roserade, Honchkrow, Yanmega, Froslass, etc.)
Silph at the Ranch is exactly how I would be in the Pokemon world. Getting instantaneously distracted by the cute animals and running up to pet them as I immediately forget the important thing I was just doing.
I wouldn't pet them, the cute ones are more dangerous
"Aww it's a Mareep. Hey lil sheepie."
*Mareep's Static activates.*
"AGH! Mother f... damn!"
@@BloodThirstyAvengers Worth. It.
@@dabluestone4805 If god gave me two hands and one chance to pet a snubbul, I like those odds.
"Type advantage means nothing if you're a trash trainer"
Damn Silph, that Tepig was a normal type before you roasted him that hard
I read this as soon as he said it
Just as an FYI: next time you play through Black 2 and White 2, you can get a Deerling with its hidden ability Serene Grace at the lab on Route 6. You could have also counted it as a static encounter, meaning you could have gotten a Grass-type before the Ground Gym.
Edit: OK, how did my comment get this many likes?!
also he could of gotten a skill link mincinno from the hidden grotto on route 5 which would of been so so good
I thought so I was like there was another deerling he could have got
He could have also got Braviary way earlier as a statix encounter on Mondays.
@@kellinr.741 he could of but he said in the video that he wasnt playing on monday and its kinda annoying cause if he wanted to get it he would of had to change his date in computer settings to obtain it
I honestly don't blame him for either not knowing or knowingly skipping it cuz some of these pokemon from grottos are pretty powerful
0:53 Minor correction: Swablu actually can be found in the main game. N gives you the Waterfall HM right before you enter Victory Road, letting you access Abundant Shrine, the area which you find Swablu.
Its not even of any use , swablue is useless.
But you sure are smart
@@whydoyouwanttoknowthename3238 as a sacrifice?
You can also get it on route 14, after the 6th gym
Silph, I think the Minccino in the Hidden grotto would've been a great option due to having it's hidden ability skill link.
Bro, thought the same
Yeah Skill Link Cinccino is great, pretty disappointed that he just caught a regular minccino and didn't use the Hidden Grotto one.
I'll always be here for the new Nuzlocke, Nuzlocke junkie 😅
black and white 2 just never get old, i always get the same thrill every single playthrough
You could used the cinncinno from the grotto west of nimbasa instead of east and good it with skill link so it’s multi hit moves would always hit 5 times, especially since cinncinno can then go to the move relearner for bullet seed and rock blast
Yeah that's what I thought! Tail Slap is an amazing stab move as well and you can choose between wake-up slap or aqua tail to hit steel types
@@CormacThunderStar Yeah skill-link Cincinno was my go to in Shield.
@@CormacThunderStar or Dig
I feel you on the Volcarona part. They're They're bonkers pokemon. With Quiver Dance I got mine to over 1,000 Special Attack and walked all over Alder in my initial playthrough of Black 1.
agreed.
The regional rodents actually pull more work than they're given credit for. Raticate in particular has both Guts and Hyper Fang early on in Gen 3+ so its a good enough mon for the early game.
In general I feel like Normal-types are quite the versatile bunch though it does kinda suck that you don't get the greatest of special attacking options in this game until very late with Clefable. I mean you could've tried to make Castform work but 70 base SpA ain't cutting it anywhere when your physical attackers pull out so much more damage.
At least it has the elemental damage naturally with Weather Ball.
There’s a hidden grotto you can get early on that gives you an amazing Minccino. It has the ability that increases the power of multi-hit moves, which is totally busted with Tail-slap and Silk Scarf.
Uh... no. Skill Link makes all multi-hit moves hit the maximum times, like Icicle Spear hitting all 5 times. It doesn't increase the power of anything....
@@Deerthedoe6842 well then that’s what it means and I’m remembering it wrong. Been a while since I’ve played. Gotta do another run sometime.
@@psachickennugget8617 Me too :/ I wanted to make a dark type one but it is just too hard and luck based that I prefer not to do that
I had an idea a while back, of an only trade Evolution run, to show off pokemon like politoed.
And if you cooperate with another player you could trade your teams and use the others team now fully evolved.
I think it could be really fun to watch
Oh my, gen 5 brought so many really fun and cool Normal types.
Silph: Don't tell Antlerboy we lost a Dunsparce.
Me: Oh, we won't. He already knows because he's watching this video.
“It ends up having a modest nature”
Me who doesn’t know what any of the natures do without having them explained to me 🙃
Modest raises Sp. Atk and lowers Atk, it's effectively the opposite nature to adamant which raises Atk and lowers Sp. Atk
After binging through your channel’s hardcore runs the past couple of weeks, feels cool to be here 5 minutes after a new one posted! Ready for this ride!
A new normal type run...? Sweet!
Honestly I laughed but also was really glad you tried to use Delcatty. I know it has really bad stats but I love Delcatty. It’s a cat ! And it’s so cute ! What’s not to love ? Haha
I thought I was going crazy but it looks like this is indeed a 'basic' themed run hahaha. Starbucks names everywhere
"Although, he does give us some much needed oran berries, so we'll let him live" I did a whole ass double take on that one
Honestly, Normal Type have really caught my heart in recent years, this run just helps that alot. Let's get it Sawsbuck! Normal Types will probably break my Top 5 soon. Great Vid 👌
it's honestly an underrated type.
Stourland, Furfrou and Braviary are among my favourite normal types! I love that you did this challenge because I was planning to do the same!!
Herdier is like the “please carry me through the early game” Pokémon. It’s got really good bulk for that part of the game.
So good to see Raticate exceeding expectations as usual. Easily one the most underrated pokes. Plus, he's round and cute.
Wonder if Smallant was watching.
Silph: "hmm what to name my Pokemon"
(Looks at Starbucks menu)
Silph: "this'll do"
I totally suck at nuzlockes, but I absolutely love watching them! I really enjoy watching your videos Silph and I learn so much through every nuzlocke you do. Maybe one day I can commit to one, especially seeing how fun your videos make it seem like.
same here
Did you ever watch Marrilland's lets plays back in the day? Murica reminded me of his Braviary name in his White 2 series.
I just did this nuzlocke a month ago, actualy yo can get a minccino with skill link 100% in the first secret path tha Bianca shows you in the game right next to the Electric gim, also you can get a deerling with serene grace from the weather institute and a garanted dunsparce with serene grace in the victory road, do not take one of the secret paths, it will have its hiden hability and it is trash. By the way amazing video, keep it up!
I fine myself laughing too hard every time Silph says c'mere you little
Guts boosted STAB hyper fang from raticate probably would’ve been an even better bet than rock smash for Colress, and I’m hoping that later on you have raricate be your answer for a lot of things that resist normal typing cuz guts boost stab practically negates a 2x resist, if not outright negating it. I don’t know the guts multiplier off the top of my head, it’s either 1.5 or 2 tho I think. Do not quote me on that tho
1.5
@@obsidianfrost9514 thanks
I miss the tournament videos but it's always good to see fun Pokemon runs. Your videos and couple others have given me a new found respect for black and white 2. Can't wait to see your next video
In the defense of Delcatty, I actually went to and DEFEATED the Hoenn League in Alpha Sapphire with a Delcatty on my team. I took me a couple of tries, but I managed to win in the end. And at higher levels, Delcatty can be surprisingly tanky. So it's actually become one of my favorite Normal Type Pokémon.
Normal types always get slept on but they've just been out here casually being monster powerhouses for decades.
Havent watched yet, but I lost my normal nuzlocke when battling Colress (zero coverage against steel), so I wonder how you are going to deal with him with only normal types ^^
This run was really fun to watch. Great work, man. Record now stands at 29/5. By the way, I hope you didn't mind me keeping track of your nuzlocke records like this. I thought it would be fun to do.
Now, I notice that your recent videos are releasing on Mondays instead of Sundays. Is this easier for you to do, schedule-wise? I don't mind, really.
Never this fast to a video!
I know right the moment it appeared in my pull down menu I jumped in
Surprised how long Audino lasted and that it contributed. Love that
the primary issue for normal type runs is that stoutland overshadows the rest of the pokemon to such a huge extent that stoutland basically just carries the entire game by iself, since all the other pokemon are shit except for specific type coverage moves. and frankly, Ariel ace and rock smash on a stoutland covers them *anyway.*
Wailord appears in the marine tube around 3:00pm-4:59pm so it was cool that you ended up seeing it at that time tho.
I'm so glad Zangoose came in clutch. It's one of my favorite Pokemon and i seldom see it used
34:52 wait a second... that was a 2 hit k-o xD
If you ever feel like it, you can try B2W2 challenge mode. It makes all major fights a bit more difficult and for these types of runs with a few more encounters than usual it could help spice things up even more
I was looking forward to this one! I remember playing these games when they were new and doing the medal challenge to beat the Elite 4 with a mono-type. It was the first time I used all Normals, and was super pleasantly surprised. Ironically Unfezant turned out to be my MVP, so glad that Braviary worked out!
Zangoose is my favourite Pokémon so I'm happy to see it on a nuzlock and doing so well, such an underrated pokemon
Thank you so much for the hours of entertainment!! 26:45 still sends me every time i watch this video lol Keep it up Silph!!!
I'm watching this at work, and on my break, the drink I ordered was an iced chai latte, and 3 seconds after, Patrat was caught. Just something I thought was a silly coincidence
Stoutland is honestly my favorite! Great stats, great coverage, intimidate... and it's so fluffy!
I think an interesting Nuzlocke would be fairy type Pokemon, but in Gen 2 before they changed typing (so Clefairy, Jigglypuff, Marill, etc.).
Gen 2 because Gen 1 would be a nightmare to pick up Fairy-type Pokemon, but I'm pretty sure you can pick up a Jigglypuff before the first gym.
I wont tell AntlerBoy you lost a dunsparce... but I will tell MandJTV you dissed the Castform like that. X3
Ohhhh, fun! Say, could you do a run with only food-type pokemon (any game)?
These videos are so awesome to just vibe to lately. I've binged all the old ones too. Good stuff.
A wild Gengar appeared and said “Algorithm”
I love that people are loving BW and BW2 cause I never understood the hate it got cause it’s sooo good
The Gen 5 games are amazing! Funnily enough I'm replaying through Black 1 as of typing this.
5:52 best moment of the nuzlocke XDXDXD
Just got home from a three day road trip, and I'm having a bad fibro flare up. Really glad I have some content from you to watch while I try to deal with this crud lol. Thanks Silph!
Nice going again Silph! Keep up the good work!
The: “C’MERE YOU LITTLE S**T!” Line ALWAYS gets me 😂😂😂
This has got to be my favorite series, I anticipate each episode every week
19:43 I Love how cobalion screams Kawbraaaa, When in Spanish Cabra means goat.
This nuzlocke makes me want to go on a caffeine binge
Your reaction during the Pokestar Studios segment sums it up perfectly
It wouldn't be a b2w2 run without pointing out the funny grass at the ranch
Absolutely loved this one Silph!
just taking this run in. almost spit my water out with that "Future Unova champion" bit. always a good time watching your content.
I love your videos they are fantastic. I love the way you break down each battle. I’m definitely going to try a hardcore nuzlocke of my own.
Nothing like silph doing a run on a monday and i love braviary.
Awesome! I actually did this run a few weeks ago, and Clefable was an absolute beast sweaping through Iris team alone!
I love your monotype runs! Have you thought about doing themed runs like 'birds only' or 'herbivores only?' Might be fun!
I'd love to see a basic nuzlocke where you just dont use Google to look up strats beforehand.
love this. i love normal types and this game has one of the best selections of them
I honestly read the title as "Can I beat 2 nuzlockes with one team?" Was confused and amazed lol
Silph: ...and it's time to tackle it.
Me: I think it's actually time to ICY WIND it :).
The videos that I look forward to seeing and keep me going every week. Thank you for the awesome content - both in terms of the quality and the consistency.
Love the Coffee/Starbucks/Timmy’s References:)
Normal types are very underrated! I learned this over the past year...
I haven't finished the video, but I saw you caught Audino and you better not let the baby die! Audino is probably my all time favorite normal type since I got it in my first video game in general Pokémon Black and I love it! Baby child baby!
Rip true power series. Really missing it..
Raticate was surprising! Loved the video!
Good vid! Normals are my favorite type because they can have cool secondary types.
When you used fly with Braviary you were not in danger of Conkeldur using bulk up because Braviary was in KO range. The AI will opt for the KO on you above setting up or using healing moves.
Raticate is my favorite Pokémon and I loved seeing you use him!
Never thought about the possibility of those marks behind Alders house being made by him 🤣 that’s a great image
B/W and B2/W2 are my favorite games by FAR. There’s still plenty of mons I’ve wanted to use in them, but haven’t gotten around to yet. You use some in this video like Watchog, Raticate and Cinccino so I dig it
Definitely didn’t know about that secret compartment in the bag when I played through the game 😅
Little messy against Iris, but I’m just surprise it was even successful!
So hyped for this one of the best bday present today hahahah love this runs
Happy birthday my friend; glad you're enjoying the videos! :D
@@SilphSpectre thank you 😁
I think that the Pearl normal run is still superior, but this was also a nice ride.
Your vids are the best, man! You’re making me consider trying to try these challenge runs and even make my own videos one day
you inspired me to do my own hardcore normal type run in leaf green with this!
Raticate is an absolute monster of a pokemon. VERY underappreciated even in Gen 1. When I did my monotype run I just absolutely demolished with him. Definitely my ace and for sure one of my favorite pokemon ever since then.
I really wanna see you play romhacks as well, such as blaze black, renegade plat, stormsilver etc. It wouldnt have to be a hardcore nuzlocke challenge, beouse its way too hard, but instead you could play like "can you beat blaze black with only dark types", basically how zwiggo does. Also I dont know what do you guys think about this idea?
I was just watching obe of your old videos and then i saw this one incredible timing
Silph with the s tier Monday content
Loving the coffee theme here lol
Raticate with guts? You mean RAT POWER
I wish you would do the extra end fight against Cynthia even if you need to revive your team since it is just an extra fight for us ♥️
I really enjoy Silph videos since he have that authentic speech from a nice voice that keeps you entertained all along the video… what a life
Don’t talk to me until I’ve had my nuzlocke
I love Stoutland. I had a Cocker spaniel named Holly Ann. She was a part of my life for 15 years since I was 7 years old. She passed away two years ago, and I miss the pest.
Ever since a female Stoutland is a must have on my team even when I play competitively. Sand rush Stoutland with a life orb or a choice band, with moves like retaliate to revenge kill a fallen team mate, wild charge, Fire Fang and superpower makes it monstrous.
Stoutland = best pupper.
Not a lot of deaths in this run, but wow, each one hurt , tons of all stars.
