We all know Gym Leader Lt. Surge is strong. But can he beat a hardcore nuzlocke of Pokemon Platinum using his BEST canon team!?
▶️ My secret project is finally here! Welcome to a whole new Pokémon world. SUBSCRIBE HERE: / @pokemonwbl
We've done some hard Pokemon challenges in the past, but usually they were a solo or monotype Pokemon challenge run. What if we still did a really difficult challenge... but using hardcore nuzlocke rules, and with only a Pokemon character's best team as a theme team nuzlocke? Today we find out: can Lt. Surge's Best Team Beat a hardcore nuzlocke of Pokemon Platinum!?

Character Best Team Hardcore Nuzlocke Ruleset:
(1) If a Pokémon faints, it must be permanently boxed or released.
(2) Only one encounter per badge obtained.
(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.

What happened to the WB L videos?
Starting with Chinchou as te starter and having Jolteon's pin missile for Gardenia would have been the best case scenario.
And Fantina could be defeated, but it requires a lot of grinding coins at the casino (IF ONLY THE CASINO WASN'T CUT OFF)
I think from your videos you’re a lovely person. If you weren’t aware then I think should check out that BetterHelp have been found to partake in some very unfair trade practices. Largely that they sold people’s mental health information to social media sites, information they had specifically promised would not be sold. www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/blog/2023/03/ftc-says-online-counseling-service-betterhelp-pushed-people-handing-over-health-information-broke
Additionally find lot of testimony online about the poor quality of service better help provide.
Please do a nuzlocke for Sabrina, Morty, or Karen's team.
Fun Fact: Lt Surge is among the tallest humans in the pokemon world being roughly 8 feet tall. The fact he isn't even the tallest is a scary thought
pretty sure that honor goes to AZ
I think Az or Crasher Wake are the tallest
Not that scary wheb AZ is like 3045 years old or something
That one piece height lol I swear OP characters average height is like 8ft tall.
Robert Wadlow was 8' 11"
Electivire went sicko mode at the end.
"I killed punks like you during the war" Lt Surge
Golder 3

Cynthia: Ha! I've got you cornered! There's no possible way I can lose now!
Electrivire: **Megalovania INTENSIFIES**
Boss Battle Music reverses on Cynthia.
Cynthia: Wait… I’m the Champion! The Music shouldn’t be turning against me!!
I read Megalovania, but my brain instead played "Your contract has expired" from "a Hat in time "
Personally, I think Golden Wind would've applied here, considering he went full MUDA! on her entire team.
Dududu du
Du du du dududu
(That's Megalovania right?)
Lanturn was the MVP of the run, but Electivire definitely came in clutch there toward the end.
Electivire after seeing its last team mate faint: COWABUNGA IT IS!!!
Typical Electivire behavior
I dont know why but Electivire is such a boss ass pokemon
I remember Gary’s Electivire before the Sinnoh anime and instantly thinking it was the coolest pokemon going
Was that Paul's Electivire!?!? Because he was a total menace!
Holy shit electivire beat ALL the allegations today
Electivire’s coverage is just goated
The fact that Electivire gets access to all 3 of the elemental punches and earthquake on top of that is honestly kinda OP for a normal playthrough.
Yes! I've missed these!!!! I'm currently doing a Hardcore Nuzlocke Challenge of Pokemon HeartGold with only Ice type Pokémon, great inspiration this videos
Same, I'm working on a Black 2 run with Ghost types.
i'm doing a poison only Crystal Legacy run
What's a legacy run?
@@acriolu Pokémon Crystal Legacy is a romhack for crystal by SmithPlaysPokemon.
@@acriolu Crystal Legacy is a romhack by SmithPlays that lets you get all 251 pokemon without needing to trade, brings back Mareep who was criminally left out of Crystal's encounter tables, puts johto pokemon actually in Johto like Houndoom and Murkrow, and has a built in Hard Mode with level caps, permanent Set mode, and blocks items in trainer battles. it's pretty fun. It also changes up some of the gym leaders to feel more like they are Johto leaders, and makes Kanto actually a challenge.
Final fight with Cynthia Silph: " And I made the wrong call "
Electivire: " Fine, I'll do it myself"
SILPPPPPH!!! O'CLOCK!!!! 🙌🙌
This should perk me up after nearly dying after surgery! 😂
*Lt.Surge holding Defibrillators* *CLEAR*
Oh my - very glad you made it through my friend, sounds like you really had a rough go of things. Wishing you a speedy recovery and hope the videos are able to help pass the time!
@@SilphSpectre it's all good fella, had a knee arthroscopy and they accidently cut through my great saphenous vein, nearly bled out 😁 but slowly on the mend buddy 🙌
Aw cripes! Wishing you a speedy recovery, mate!
@@shinigamimiroku3723 thanks buddy! 😁 Just resting up and finding a way to pass time haha 😁
Isn't he just a janitor at this point? 😂
According to Josh
No, because jrose11 sucks
RoseGallery unite!
Scott's Thoughts fans unite!
Jrose11 has lowered that man to a mop holder 😂
Electivire took no prisoners! He turned full on menace on Cynthia!
That was a clutch ending. Cant wait to see Erikas team next.
Silph and Fantina doing the Spiderman pointing meme with Confuse Rays
Chinchou had always been my favorite Mon. I swear when that Roserade hurt itself in confusion and Silph used flail to win, I got out of my seat cheering 😅
You shoulda named Barry, jrose11 so Petty Officer Surge would finally be having his revenge
Electivire: (alone against the Champion’s Team of Six) Okay, (pops knuckles) Let’s do this!!
(Pokémon Battle Theme intensifies!)
Isn't BetterHelp the company that had a scandal about not using actual therapists, and selling info IIRC?
All therapy is a scam none of them wants you to get better because then they lose their jobs what therapy basically does is takes your problems and gives them a word for it and then basically say okay see you next week
I’m so into these runs. Such a fun idea!
This popped up right when I was looking for something watch. Perfect timing there Silph! And what a crazy ending.
glad i'm not the only one who sees the family resemblance between barry and cynthia, i'm honestly a bit surprised that it isn't canon.
volo even looks a bit like barry when he removes his hat, though that's an arceus reference so…
I have a hc that Lusamine and Cynthia are related because they also look kinda similar, with Lusamine looking like an older version of Cynthia. I hc Lusamine is either Cynthia's older sister or her aunt. Which would, in turn, make Gladion and Lilly either Cynthia's nephew and niece or her cousins. I just like hcs of random Pokemon characters being related to each other.
yikes... not the BetterHelp sponsorship...
Hey Silph you shouldn't partner with better help, they dox therapists even if they aren't signed with better help!! Just so you know :3
This! Replying for better reach
I have no clue on the validity of this claim, but it is important to be wary of this either way
If I may make a suggestion following this theme, a HGSS playthrough using Lorelei's team since she & Agatha were replaced with Morty & Pryce.
10:45 I love Gardenia. This was a great battle showing off her team
17:24 Love Mismagius, so iconic
Great comment 👍🏼 Thank you for sharing your thoughts: Very Insightful! 😁
5:05 For those who don't know ,you can actually get a heart scale and a Pearl by talking to the huge pile of Coal. For the pearl you will have to go to the left of the miner where there is that small gap .
talking to a rock
Jesus, imagine if Game Freak gave mega evolution to Electivires? 😶
New video I must watch, I've been binging these wanting to try a nuzlocke of my own
Mostly excited for Giovanni, because he SURPRISINGLY uses alot of pokemon.
So who knows! maybe I'll get to see a Mega Kangaskhan ;)
Gosh I'm only halfway through and this has been INSANE
The fact that Silph Ev trains to get that tiny bit of extra oomph makes him my favourite nuzlocker
Electavire is in the thumbnail but my boy Lanturn put in WORK this run. But both were crucial to this runs success so I'm not complaining.
It's nice to see giftshop assistant Surge earning his title once more!
That was a great final battle, well done!!
I cannot remember myself waiting an upload from a youtuber this much . I must have been around 15years old .There is something special about u Silph!!!
Electivire went beast mode
Hey Silph, really enjoy your videos and how much has been going into these more recent ones! I just wanted to speak up and mention that BetterHelp has been under a lot of critical eyes lately, and has some really dicey issues with handling personal information, in most cases giving all information provided directly to Facebook for their ad purposes and selling it to other advertisers as well. I would never judge the choice to sponsor, since those funds can be vital to your livelihood, but I thought to put it out there just in case it wasn't on your radar! Really looking forward to more of your videos :)
Nice Video.
Pls more of these types of nuzlocke.
Greatings from Germany
loving these playthroughs, Silph! I’m sure Erika is already in production but seeing her team try to tackle Unova would be great content
My first ever playthrough of Platinum i picked up an Electivire as soon as i could having never used one before and it very quickly became one of my favourite pokemon... this video just shows why!
Magnemite gone T-T I don't think there was any way to save him but still
Sick run. One of the best endings imo
I want to see Sabrina's team in Alpha Sapphire
Edit: I meant Sabrina.
That sound cool
Or in X or Y
I love how you edited the OHKOs all at once for Flint and Aaron!
Betterhelp is super sketchy guyz
That was insane!! Great work
wow silphy.. i literally skipped thru cynthia because i was sure youd lose and end sadly. SO HAPPY to see you pull thru, electivire MVP!
I haven't gotten so excited watching a nuzlocke anywhere close to how excited I was for Elective! He deserved that sweep SOOO MUCH! 😊😊😊
this man is Goated. i swear he wasn't gonna win that. but that was amazing to watch
Lmao i see you sneakin the driftveil soundtrack in there silph😂 (24:00m)
Happy to see Electivire in the spotlight, of the odd trio of Electabuzz, Magmar and Rhydon, the electric line was always my favorite yet always one people seemed to ignore. Lets go, Electivire!!
Pachirisu is one of my favorite Pokémon, and so much fun to use. My first time playing these games was BDSP and my Pachirisu and Chimecho were instrumental
This was fun to watch to the very end
I’m most excited for the Erika and Sabrina runs ❤
You got farther than I expected! Good job!
I respect Silph's professional and concise presentations.
20:48 Calling it right now. There'll be a blackout in part of Lumiose caused by a Mega Eelektross.
I think it would be fun to see a run with Silphs best team where you would just play through a game with your best possible team
I guess this'll be the closest I'll get to a gen 4 with only electric types.
Oh hell yeah the king is back
Platinum for it‘s 15th Birthday - Love it 💕
Happy Birthday, Pokémon Platinum. One of the best Pokémon games ever.
Damn I love when you upload a new vid.
Love Electivire, wish physical electric types had truly good STAB moves :,)
I think a decent challenge could be seeing if Gardenia could beat black and white?
She has a pretty interesting line up of pokemon in her roster.
Electivire went crazy but props to Chinchou/Lantern, for without it, maybe you reset more
SilphSpectre, Wow, this made my day brighter! Thank you!
Great to see one of my favorite pokemon absolutely demolish Cynthia.
I love Silph, truly the GOAT
Hey Silph, long time watcher, first time commenter - Thanks for sharing your mental health story, that takes a lot of guts. Good on you.
Damn! That last battle was peak anime moment
That electivire had an indomitable spirit.
Can you explain the “best alternates” please? I remember you had them in Brock and Misty’s runs but I feel like I missed out on something. Still loving your vids. Always a highlight to see when a vid drops.
Looker also appears in the gen 6 postgame!
I mean, it makes sense that you couldn't find the TM for Volt Switch in Platinum... Since it's a 5th gen's move if I remember correctly xD
13:25 Volt Switch is a gen 5 move that’s why
I'm surprised that you didn't use the shinx evolution line for this run
I was the first to suggest Electavires existence… You’re welcome.
As one great crab said "used to go to war, used to be out in those trenches"
GAH I love these runs!
its an electivire diff!!! ggs
Greatest ending ever!
My boi Surge be bargen through gyms
Fun fact: one of the pikachu in that house with a bunch is actually a pikachu kid trainer you can battle.
You don’t have too, but it would be so cool to do a trainer like Cilian from Black and White that usually has a type speciality, but who’s team is type diverse, like his Simisage, Crustle, Stunfisk etc
Electivire coming through at the end is insane. Wtf.
Why is the fact that Lt. Surge is 8ft tall more terrifying to me than Mewtwo or Gyarados 😳
3:44 Who *don’t like generation five* ? Ah, so you were talking to my (kind of) people! 😅 🫡
Koga or Janine would be interesting as the poison type doesnt have much going for it overall in the first 4, 5 generatiomy
i for one wouldn't mind using my explorer kit with silph...😅😅
Only like 8 minutes in, but I thought you had to nickname all your Pokémon in a Nuzlocke. Did Plat not let you nickname your starter and/ or hatched Pokémon?
Magnezone is underrated, i used it in my first Platinum Playtrough and it's really good
See i didn't use hacks i got a dusk ball...
Wait, but, your not catching anything? Why would you need it 😂
Electivire clutch in the end and won for the fallen
I feel so satisfied seeing my all time favorite Pokemon as the sole survivor of this run 😌🤩🎶
Damn, this might be your unluckiest run!
Let’s follow the line !! Next Erika for sure 👍🏼 maybe in Pokémon Crystal would be fun !!
