    Ghost type Pokemon are the coolest and most unique out there... but can they beat Pokemon Black's greatest challenge!?
    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 Black Hardcore Nuzlocke with only Ghost types? No items and no overleveling!

    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.
    (4) Additional Pokémon may be caught for the purpose of HM use, but these may not be used in battle at any time during the run.
    (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.
    (7) "Set" Battle Mode must be used at all times.
    (8) No connecting with other games for the purposes of importing Pokémon, Items, etc.

    This run is alternatively titled "Pokémon Black But Silph's Ghost Pokémon Keep on Barely Surviving" with how many times his Pokémon survived a (mostly) physical and/or super-effective move. My favorite has to Venkmen the Haunter/Gengar just not wanting to faint in multiple occasions and Egon the Cofagrigus managed to barely stay in 1HP even after 2 hits in confusion and Silph getting distracted by the delivered parcel and misclicked, the RNG Gods may have definitely blessed this challenge.

    Ghosts have always been some of my favorite Pokémon, it’s just a shame there are so few of them in most generations.

    Not sure if this is why your speed calcs were off but in bw and bw2 trainers will have random natures so whenever I play these games I account for a plus speed nature.

    Oh i've an idea! How about a run where you get every single type on the team. When i mean all types i mean through typings in the team and the moves they use, all 18. When i play around with teams stab is almost completey non-existent BUT! I'd adore to see that kinda video.
