- It's time to take on a game we've NEVER played on the channel... how much of a challenge will it be!?
Ghost Type Pokémon are among the coolest and most mysterious out there... but they're incredibly hard to find. Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon do have a good lineup of encounters though, allowing for wicked teams. Can Ghosts beat Pokémon USUM's hardest 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 Ultra Sun 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.

Happy Halloween y'all! Hope you enjoy our very first trip into the Alola Region!
I've got some exciting announcements upcoming, so make sure you're following me on Twitter to stay up to date: twitter.com/SilphSpectre
thanks for this video silph
silph delivering everything we wanted again
Is one of those exciting announcements that you will finally do a real Hardcore challenge playing a Kaizo hack or something?
Silph could you please do a final segment where you decide which Pokémon was the MVP of the run? I think it would be really cool to hear your opinions and who you thought really carried the team the most, most of all i love your videos! they’ve gotten me to start nuzlocking myself, and truly making play throughs amazing for me again 🙏🏻
GET IN FUCKEN BAG NEBBY
I love how you named the mons after philosophers, since most of them are dead
I like how you had to specify most
I really hope that Rand the Sableye isn’t named after Ayn Rand
and locke, the man who started it all (a nuzleaf named locke in the original "Pokémon ruby hard mode" comic inspired the name) being the last Pokémon still alive
@DarthFastball11 Why not? Her philosophy made a lot of sense if you read it. What is wrong with live for yourself, do not infringe upon others rights, and do things that are in your best interest or that you genuinely want to do?
@@nicholasneyhart396 Rand is a moron, her takes on capitalism and the idea that owners are the reason businesses can operate is demonstrably false and even intuitively stupid
I think you're the first nuzlocker to not use Toxic stall against Ultra Necrozma. Mad respect.
I've seen a couple of FEAR (Focus Sash, Endevour, quick Attack Raticate) tactics before, mainly from FlygonHG
@@mattildas7515 FEQAR Raticate
I used a curse stall strat against ultra necrozma
Honestly most decently trained Steel types can take it on. I remember one time I had a Magnezone and it just tanked everything
True, I forgot about FlygonHG. Still, that´s some elite company to be in.
Most people just use Toxic, a Focus Sash and Protect. This was refreshing to see.
22:49 - The NPCs in Alola EV train more often than not. What taught me this first hand was my first fight with Plumeria in Moon. I went at her with a Crobat of a slightly higher level and her Golbat cleanly outsped me.
My first surprise was my Crobat vs Nanu's Alolan Persian. I had fully speed trained Crobat and just assumed they outsped even with EVs on Persian. Nope.
Yeah, is being talked how Guzma's Masquerain is terrifying because is fully EV'd and have a good nature (Along with his buff base stats from 7 gen balance). Some trainers use competitive like Pokemon making things more difficult
I learnt from one of FlygonHG's videos that one of the ace trainers before the first kahuna battle has a fully EV trained Butterfree.
Btw I forgot that it has 5 or 6 IV's too, so is a perfect competitive pokemon
The Ace Trainers and the "route kahunas" are pretty tough, the latter use competitive items too. The Alola games are actually pretty tough.
This shows Gen 7's brutal side very well.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a run from you where so much was working against you. From terrible natures and bad RNG. Much respect to you for sticking it out and preserving
I just felt like saying I think you meant “persevering” not preserving
“Imagine taking until level 41 for your first evolution”
*laughs in Temtem*
What's Temtem?
Other than the first encounter being a bit sus (hand picking the encounrer), trade evolving the Phantump (connecting to another game) and using a totem pokemon (not really against the rules but they're kinda op), this was a great classic Silph run.
The names weren't themed, you didnt use the non viable pokemon before they evolved, had some mad strats against the tougher opponents and you didn't need to hack the game for any encounters. More of this please my man
...like a fighting type run of XY, it's fun and difficult.
SILPH THE GOATTTTTT. Love this run already
“Never again am I doing a challenge with this difficult of a start” me who has just watched the fire type ruby run from today ( a week later): are you sure about that 🤣
I think this was the most youve ever struggled on a nuzlocke. Good video as always silph.
Time for spooky month! Your stuff is always fantastic, and I love me some Ghost types.
That was THE most brutal run I've ever seen.
It's awesome how Litwick nearly beat every enemy or got the kill with the last hit. It's one of my absolute favorites it's so cute and its evolutions are so cool
I'm pretty sure Olivia's Lycanroc has speed EVs, which would explain why you didn't outspeed it with Trevenant even after the speed drop.
I always figured with Lillie and Nebby she's not actually carrying Nebby. Nebby is floating and is just hiding in her backpack
Insane video. I didn’t think this was even possible but you showed that if you plan well and sac liberally, it’s actually doable. Great work. Might be your best video yet
Omg I was so glad to see another upload of your nuzlockes! Definitely my favourite to watch!
He’s done it! Gen 7 finally! And an awesome monotype to choose for your first USUM run.
Halloween is just such an awesome time of the year, and ghost types are so good. Aegislash is my favourite ghost type for sure.
Mine is mimikyu
I've got 4 years of experience playing this game. I know it's a nuzlocke, but I couldn't get past the teacher unless I was at level 16 or higher. Also the type you chose is awesome, but you don't get it till you're past the trainer's school which was technically the beginning. Just a heads up. For ultra sun / ultra moon nuzlockes. I've got the types for the beginning of the game. Dark, poison, bug, flying, steel, and normal. Fire, water and grass are available too, but in gen 7 you're rival chooses the starter that's at a disadvantage and he isn't a challenge till the 3rd island. I'm still working my mind around these 3 nuzlockes since you're supposed to make you're rival challenging for yourself
"We get this for 2 months. And then absolute hell for 10" i felt this.
Dang just watched this after the poison firered run. Both came down to the very last pokemon and bad luck... heartbreaking, but mad props. Definitely one of the best pokemon youtubers out there. Keep up the good work
I love these hardcore Nuzlockes
Damn that was hard af. Great job on making in to the very last silph. Your videos are quite entertaining so keep up the work! 👍
,,I will never do a challenge this hard early on'' next week Fire Challenge in Gen 3 LMAO 😂👌🏼
Love the video as always silph. You’re the man. Ever consider making more of the let’s play walkthroughs you did with Pokémon red and gold? Those were great, and it could offer more consistent content. Either way I’ll be watching any nuzlocke you put out💪🏼 have a great day!
31:32 Silph: Marowak is immune to electric
Kantonian Marowak: wish I was there
Alolan Marowak has lightning rod
I know
What a cool run! Glad to see you doing games you have not done yet :D
I love all the ghost type runs during the spooky seasons!!!
Perfect to watch while doing your own nuzlocke lol
Fun Fact: I am pretty sure the files for HMs in Alola are still in the game, but don't show up anywhere.. by using "Totally Legit" means, and getting every TM possible.. the HMs that were changed to TMs appeared for a second time at the very end of the list, but they were unusable (No pokemon were compatible). it still said TM before the number though. it was just the next numbers after the last normal TM
That was probably one of my favorite runs youve made!
Every time you say Plato, I hear you saying "Play Dough"... 😂😂
That was an excellent run and very enjoyable. Can't wait for the next run.
Duuuuude how did you know I was recently revisiting my Ultra Sun cartridge? Love the video as always!!
1:45 - 1:49 As a fellow Canadian, I felt that
What an amazing run! Kept me at the edge of my seat.
The future song 😂😂😂 good video bro
6:15 He took a nicer approach trying to catch a Pokémon rather than yelling "Come here, you little shit!" That's character development.
Wow I was not expecting that ending, good job!
Daaaamn this was a great run, wish it would have ended in victory but tough nonetheless! Great job Silph!
Unless I missed something, you totally forgot to bring Decidueye back to your team after the Necrozma fight. Did I miss you mentioning it's death somewhere? I think it would've tipped the final fight in your favor and made the end easier.
I think he said they died in the lead up to Ribombee
@@solgaleo3533 Yeah he did, so I did end up missing it lol. Was bugging me when I saw the empty slot and couldn't figure out why it was empty.
Your humor is great! Keep up the good work Uncle Silphie!
Holy Moses, mad props for beating ultra necrozma with zero cheese/ toxic stall ❤
I was just reminded that I asked for this run on the Black Water type run. It so cool to see it come to fruition and an excellent showing in such a notoriously difficult game!
I was so happy that you made Bertrand your starter. I think you would have won the run if you had gone for the name Rawls over Rand.
Always hyped for these 👍
i laughed way too damn hard at the "claw into them tm's" joke 😭😭😭
Hey Silph! Long time viewer and fan, I have a run suggestion I haven’t seen too much of. A ground type run on hg/ss BUT with totodile as the starter choice. Viable early encounters but the grass type rival makes for a very fun challenge, plus there’s some fun encounters throughout the game! Great video!
Dang it Silph, that jump scare got me! Lol Happy Halloween 🎃
laughed out loud at the sword of damocles pun
One of your best vid yet!!!!
Well done, Ultra Necrozma is a force to be reckoned with.
I love how he finally uses golurk i have been waiting for it for so long
Cool to see a nuzlocke of my favourite type on one of my favourite gens.
I’ve been playing through a similar nuzlocke on ultra moon which i think is generally better for ghost types so u can get a dusk stone to evolve a doublade/lampent before olivia’s trial.
Sadly though you miss out on Golurk and Totem Marowak but Chandelure was a monster in my run so i felt it was worth :)
zubat's wings flapping at mach speed were the highlight of the video for sure
You deserve a million subs just for having to sit through the intro seven times
Loveeee thisss!!!! Ty for doing newer games
Thank youuu for delivering!!! I requested Pokémon SM/UsUM! That was impressive!!
This run seemed so hard wow, glad to see you struggle a bit too :p
Seeing Mudsdale at 3:22 made me happy.
As soon as I saw Mudsdale I knew I would use it, and it VERY quickly became my favorite, surpassing Chandelure, Magnezone, and Houndoom.
Even though Ground isy favorite type, I NEVER thought anything would replace Houndoom.
I was wrong and I honestly couldn't be happier.
Also, I love that my favorite is pretty unique as compared to others.
12:53 (deep breath) I learned that the hard way.
Cool idea! Popped up in my subs right on time. Super chill Sunday vibes.
Bummer that the run failed at the final challenge. Been there. But you did really well for such stacked odds and it's safe to say that was won with slightly better luck. Hope to see more gen 7 runs!
Happy Halloween 🎃 Silph. Funny thing I heard was your Antlerboy joke 🤣 GG
I was so hoping for a dead poets society reference! Also awesome video!
I've got a degree in philosophy, and Ghost is my favourite type. Perfect. 🥰
Definitely wanna see another run at this game again one day, this game has to be the most bonkers one to Nuzlocke!
Legends Arceus Hardcore Nuzlocke?!?!
With that Future snippet you just became my favorite nuzlocker
loooooove the philosopher naming theme!!
I would love to see this one re-run in the future. You had such bad luck! 😢
I was looking for an Alola run in the channel and this one just popped ip in the recommended, CZcams reading my mind
I've never heard Gladion being called a Dark-type trainer before. He does have some Dark-type moves.
Well, he does have the aesthetics down, but he only ever uses one actual Dark-type (i.e. Zorua/Zoroark).
Litwick is so cute and it kicked ass. And Chandelure's celebration is also very cute and smug
love the golurk with red eyes on the thumbnail
This came out at the perfect time. I'm stuck in the hospital after surgery and am gonna miss Halloween this year but at least I get a taste of it with this video!
This was fun, so for your loss man. Hopefully we can get a sequel to this
Love that you allow trade evos now whenever. I think it makes the runs way better
Ooh, I'm early early. Watching people run the Ultra games is always so fun!
I’ve been waiting for an ultra sun/moon nuzlocke!
you were dead to dark pulse flinch in the champion battle vs Noivern. Sheesh talk about stressful lol
I was bacicly waiting for this lets goo also I would like to see grass in legends arceus
Prediction: Aegislash will hard carry this team.
Edit: SPOILERS
Never mind.
Not even an encounter
Sorry bro there is no Aegislash, but if there is maybe you right
Aegislash is only found with island scan so he probably won't use it
😥
tthese replys lookin pretty dumb right now lol
Yes yes yes the video i was waiting for thx silph
Those nicknames are inspiring
bruh you had me with the future song this deserves a like
NOO DONT CALL MACHAMP DADDY😭😭😂😂😂
I love ghost types they are my favorite type so i hope to see some more of them keep up the amazing work
I love the ending, down to the wire!!
"Never again am I doing a challenge with that much difficulty that early on."
Everyone knew that was a lie.
The future wifey part…I love it lol🎃
It’s a unique run you should run this game more it was challenging and great too watch !
Can’t wait to see how first nuzlock in scarlet and violet goes
Epic run!
Golurk in the thumbnail! My favourite ghost type! Yessssss
The amount of deaths in this ghost type nuzlocke is so ironic
Scariest part of this Halloween special was you losing all my favorite Pokémon lol. Love you
YES!! My request was listened to!!
I love how you threw in the song Low Life by Future for Professor Kukui’s wife lmaoo!
