It's time for another Pokemon challenge! White 2 with only Electric types seemed like a really fun and challenging idea, as encounters are limited and they're very frail! White 2 is one of my favorite Pokemon games, so let's do this!
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 Electric types?

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 trading/importing Pokémon, Items, etc.

Please pokemon ultra games with fairy types or ghost types
Great 👍 job keep make more pokemon nuzlocke video
White 2 is an amazing and fun game, the only downfall was the poke s-🤮🤮🤮
Silph: *talks about how long it took to find Emolga and tynamo*
The Pokémon in his party with static: I’m I a joke to you?
😐
Not too many players know about this mechanic, apparently.
"There I'm practicing some self love"
not even two minutes later
"I was determined to not use Magnemite here"
But not too much self-love. This is nuzlocke after all.
@@eduardobarros3986 *hardcore nuzlocke*
Had just finished the grass only run when this popped up in the playlist. Good stuff man
I bet that was fun (: I love a lot of the grass options in the Unova games
Same
Galvantula learns Energy Ball, which you find in Aspertia before this. Just an easier way to deal with Seismitoad (and Marlin too).
Billy Joel’s hometown is very close to NYC so that’s what I’m going to go with for where Billy Jo’s name came from. I forget whether Nuvema or Aspertia is meant to be Long Island, though.
I didnt realize there were some pretty good electric types in White 2! it definetly to the watch bakue of your vid man!
And as always you deliver! Gratz on the completion!
The background music was the battle victory theme when electabuzz died
Rip man
Loving the names you came up with for this one very clever 😂👏🏽
man so many instances where electabuzz would have been useful, it's a shame it had to go down to get further
If you chose oshowat the rival would have snivy, you know the Pokémon that resists electric making the challenge harder
so the dude who trades a great ball for a pokeball does it everyday and i think thats super cool
There actually may have been a solution to beating clay without buzz dying. you do rental tournament in pwt (a way to not risk your actual team) and try to get the u turn tm. you give u turn to emolga and use it to slowly weaken sandy/exca into range for buzz to finish each one off
So you can get access to Tm Energy ball after you get surf because the location of the tm Energy ball was at the other end of lake besides the protagonist house
Haxuros had mold breaker so that was actually very lucky.
Another great video. You have some of the greatest/craziest strategies in theses challenges and I love it
13:28 good choice, the FBI would be proud
I'm gonna say Billy Jo Armstrong.
Hey silph we can evolve our elctabuzz into electiwire in white 2.
It happens after the 7th r 8th gym i guess.
A person give us an item i am not totally sure what the name of the item is but is like electricity related.
You give it to your electabuzz It will evolve at level 57 or 58.
And i an totally sure coz i completed the game last week.
The name of the item is elctrizer i guess or something the same
bruh bro its a trade pokemon
1. Hardcore nuzlockers usually don't do trade evos incredibly dumb.
2. Emulator run (pretty sure) not very easy to emulate trading.
3. It's a trade mon level isn't a factor.
@@amparolopez6236 I know that but here I am talking specifically about electabuzz that you need not trade it to evolve. If you dont know then dont speak.
Electabuzz evolves while holding the electrizer with level up.
@@lokatfaris Nope it is not it evolves while holding the electrizer and level up
Emolga: what sonicboom?
Bulldoze is ground and emolga is part flying right?
F’s for Mickey
Kalos run next?
What does drillber gain when he evolves, a extra dril
Has he done a fire or water type nuzlocke if not do it on hmmm x/y
Real good. Now do fighting team
Does anyone have the pokemon channel with the routes music with pokemon sounds on them?
Honestly, garvantula was the pokemon I enjoyed using most whenever I played bw2. I would always make sure to catch one with the compound eyes ability to raise the accuracy of moves by 30%. After grinding on the battle subway for battle points, I got the wide lens item to increase accuracy even farther. This made the move thunder have 100% accuracy, when it was normally 70%. With garvantula's crazy special attack and speed, it was an almost unstoppable monster. 11/10 would recommend to everybody.
Actually I like electrogross without any weakness
Agreed. I personally don't spec that much into accuracy, but compound eyes Galvy is a monster.
@@cashewpopcorn7837 Oh boy it sure is; one of my favorite bug types of all time in terms of usability and design, even though I dislike spiders in real life lol.
Why didn't I do this to my Galvantula
@@karthikeyanm.v8381 You know, levitate elektross is super cool too! I agree with you.
“Get me off I mean off the ride” 😂😂😂
God I miss this in pokemon. The new games pander to kids too much.
@@nickb6839 you mean the audience that should be playing the game and the same children the series is targeted at????
@@TheKekethatsGenderfluidDuh yea, I think people forget these are games aimed at children. You might as well deal with it since pokemon games/your journeys are supposed to be fun
@@TheKekethatsGenderfluidDuh These same kids love spongebob, which the earlier seasons are full of references like this. It would either go over their heads, or they would laugh about it. I think they are targeting more towards toddlers than children at this point. 5 year olds can beat the older games just fine and those games have darker themes like pokemon tower and marowak, where they take on the Mafia.
@@amaterasumaster8781 Fun doesn't mean easy. If you work hard to get an A on a paper, doesn't it feel better than just being given it? The games are getting too easy and watered down. I had 2 challenging battles in all of Galar, haven't played it since.
why is nobody discussing the Billy Jo situation? He said it's important...
Great run Silph, and great start to beat Clay. Playing white2 myself with a bug only run, currently about to take on the 6th gym. Keep up the good work.
Luckily you have Crustle and Galvantula for the 6th gym.
@@glowstonelovepad9294 yeah should make the it a simple enough battle, and it's my first time using vespiqueen in a play through and actually really impressed by her but took my like an hour to find a female combee lol
@@brendancosgrave2490 how did you comment 4 hours ago it's showing that video was released 1 hour ago
@@ayushrana6574 I'm a member of the channel so got to watch it earlier before it was fully realised for all of UA-cam
@@brendancosgrave2490 ohh I was not knowing that..Thanks for telling : )
don't want to spoil but a few strats in here were NEXT LEVEL. Great run Silph hope you hit 100k soon
Example?
@@nolanstone4723 Like running Strength on Ampharos instead of Return...
Don't know what the above guy was refering to, but dropping a HM move like Strength on Ampharos (a special attacker!) while you get Return from Bianca after defeating Cheren (iirc) is an incredibly bad play, even if the move deleter is in Driftveil, Return is a NUKE as you can have 102bp attack by the second gym, whereas Strength sits at 80bp and you have to wait until Driftveil to drop it, whereas Return can be deleted anytime.
@@Locormus2 I realize all this. Thats why i was asking what strats were next level. Im a competitive Pokemon player so I’m well versed in mechanics.
@@nolanstone4723 I'm sorry, it's not really a knock at you but it was more my reaction to see him running Strength over Return and then seeing the above comment.
@@Locormus2 Return would likely be weaker than Strength at the 3rd gym if friendship isn't purposely grinded. Since he gets these up weekly i doubt he had time for that
that transition to the sponsorship blew my mind how witty it was
It was good
bro he really had me racking my brain for a shark pokemon from gen 5 i was like wtf..?
It's actually a Billie Holiday and her ex-husband Joe Guy referenceence.
White 2 is such a fun game one of my favorites
Same here! Definitely an "S" Tier Pokemon game
@@SilphSpectre it's a very fun game! With only one problem. The dragon types are horrifying, for me at least. I don't know about other people, but the dragon types are what ruined my nuzlockes. Like Cynthia's garchomp when she destroyed my first platinum nuzlocke.
@@kennovafastforward8460 there is a reason why fairy type got introduced in gen 6 - also most of the VGC players from gen 5 days know term "Drag-Mag"... Gamefreak kinda overdodid it with dragon power in this gen
@@Mirogniew fairy types had no reason to exist. They could have just buffed ice types, fuck gamefreak and the shitty meta
@@MLGProMaster-tu9tz well, you can tell the same about steel and dark types, they could just buff bugs and make some physical hitting ghousts, but Gamefreak added some more depth to types instead
You named the Joltik "Voltaire"? That is a brilliant name choice!
An enlightened one, indeed
Brilliant name used by the legendary lets player
Why?
Reminds me of what Chuggaaconroy named his Jolteon in Pokemon XD.
@@tedscheett9420 Because it literally is and that's also probably why he named it that
Great run dude! Have you ever tried a N type nuzlocke? It's basically an hardcore nuzlocke but you also have to permabox a pokemon after every major story-driven battle, starting from first gym all the way to e4, possibly one that played a big role in the last battle and has already been in your team the longest. Would be interesting to watch!
That’s a pretty cool concept.
so basically box a mon that was a major role from the last battle permanently? if so that’d be pretty cool
@@veszty9989 Would be even crazier if you boxed every mon you used in a boss battle. Probably would be super tedious and luck based for games with lots of bosses and not many encounters, but it would be interesting for games that don’t fall under that category.
a*
This would probably lead me using shit pokémon in order to never actually lose a lot of good mons
Another banger silph. I really liked the pokemon used in this run. And that sponsor segment had a perfect transition
reallg liked ur spelling
@@yoiptree bruh chill on him 💀
@@yoiptree 😅 I wrote it in a rush I'll edit it
Hey, I always see you on FlygonHG videos!
on clay after the first low kick, couldnt u have switched into emolga on the excadrills bulldoze and then on the following turn switch jolteon into a non ground type move? jolteon surely would’ve killed with ground gem dig from that range and electabuzz could’ve lived as a result
Imagine having an Electabuzz with Ice Punch against Draden and Iris. Could have made those battles a little easier.
Exactly what I came to say. I searched the comments to see if anyone else saw this
Using the death of one of your Pokémon for a sponsor, never quit the hustle.
You are criminally underrated, keep up the good work man.
Honestly the overworld braviary from white 2 is the reason I fell in love with Braviary. Its my favourite pokemon because I caught one in gen 5. I've had that braviary at least 7 years, probably 8.
He owns my heart.
what did u name it
There's now a Hisuian form of Braviary
silph; * talks in depth about an encounter that doesn’t stay on the team *
me: i smell death
I actually went "NO!!!" out loud when Galvantula was killed - big oof man
SilphSpectre: How is a water type doing this to us??
Gym Leader Clay: Not fun is it?
But then again, it is kinda Clay's fault for getting rid of his only Pokemon that took Water type damage neutrally and not even bothering to replace it with like a Quagsire or something. I forget what Ground types are in B2/W2.
It's so funny that this Hiker guy wanted to trade his Gigalith for an Emolga, since last game, he wanted to trade a Boldore for his own Emolga. There's a little story there! The Hiker fell to peer pressure and realized that he MUST have a Rock type as a Hiker. So he traded his precious pet Emolga for one out of desperation. But in the end, he realized that this simply wasn't who he was. He missed his dearly beloved pet. So, he sought out someone who could return his precious Emolga. The chances were slim that it would be the same one, but at this point, any Emolga would do. Away goes his despised Boldore, now a Gigalith, as it evolved after the trade in Black 1. He has his precious pet back, and will never fall to the expectations of others again
“That’s it, get me off” I’m dying, love your commentary man, you always make your videos entertaining not just the gameplay either
Electric Pokémon are so cool
25:00 I was surprised by simipour on my blind nuzlock run as well. Though at how useful he was in my team. It was not my first water choice, but when I lost Tirtouga, I recently used Simipour as a substitute but he (nicknamed Sebastian), was a strange critical beast and ended up winning a spot in my team.
I had similar experience when I used a Primeape on my Red Nuzlocke, though I think I cursed it by naming it Chuck Norris, he was also a critical beast.
That was the smoothest transition into an ad that I’ve ever seen
You actually had access to catch the tynamo before the 7th gym.
17:13 can we all agree we felt the same when this happened? XD
Yeah I too felt that I would be beaten and thrown at the crowd when i defeated her first 😂
What a great run! Keep up the great work! And btw, would really like to see Pokemon Platinum with only Fire types :3
Better that than diamond/pearl
You misspelled diamond and pearl
Eelectra hard carried through the elite 4. That metronome drain punch strategy was insane.
Hope you reached 1M subs......❤️ Love from India
Ever thought about a randomizer hardcore nuzlock 🧐 (just a random ideal that got through my mind)😄
I just love whenever someone does a video on B2W2. This appeared on my recommended.
Another banger, Silph! Loved the crazy strats, especially the Metronome Shadow Ball and teaching Drain Punch.
And about the debate, that Gym has a punk rock vibe to it, and that npc is a guitarist, so it has to be Green Day Billy Joe, right?
Finally Galvantula in a challenge run, Love that pokemon to bits and it's compound eyes thunder antics alongside it kind of highkey destroying the E4 in BW/B2W2. That pokemon clutches up in a nuzlocke let me tell you.
1:07
Garchomp, because it's a Ground type?
8:58 Best Anime Magical Girl Voice Acting ever 😂🤣🤣
I'm not a fan of Nuzlockes but these have made me go back and give Black 2 another shot. When I first played it like, two years ago I just breezed through the game, didn't really give it time to really impress me. Then of course the "True Power" series really made me realized I barely even scratched Black 2. Playing it now is rather refreshing and I'm enjoying it a lot and can see how most consider these games one of the best.
the conversation at 8:54 is just a normal conversation with my friends
Get me off! OFF THE RIDE!!
I've binge watched all of these
PSA: emolga encore is super broken. The ai doesn't switch out of it, so you can encore mons like Drayden's Flygon into the ground moves the rest of your team baits. Also the static ability has a 50% chance to force an electric type to appear in areas with one if you lead with a mon with it, so you can get Tynamo and Emolga quicker with that
Woah didn't know the static ability attracts electric Pokémon
@@alifikhwanudinmuhammadyusu9605 yep, and magnet pull does the same thing with steel types, it's super useful for nuzlockes for getting your skarmory or whatever other steel type you want
One of the best segues into a sponsorship I’ve ever watched. I didn’t even see it coming.
Not sure if you could have farmed more red shards but fire punch would have had 15 more base power and had a chance to burn excadrill lowering it's attack and causing damage every turn
Against Iris’s Haxorus you were very lucky. It had Mold Breaker which would’ve let Haxorus hit Eelektross with Earthquake
How are there comments "3 hours ago" when the video was released like 7 minutes ago??
UA-cam Channel Members and Patrons get early access to the videos 😄
@@SilphSpectre Oh ok that makes sense
the transition to the sponser was smooth asf
Daumn I havent seen any run of this game in AGES, this challenge will def be fun to watch! 😁
Please don't saying "my G" like that. saying his name that way is taking his name in vain. Please respect my beliefs and say gosh instead.
*"A water type nearly swept an electric type team. How's the water type doing this?"*
Me: That's coming from a person whose electric type semi swept the ground type gym leader. Great video nevertheless.
I've been a foolish squid man. You keep saying 80% of people watching your videos aren't sub'd and I was one of them despite having watched like 97 of your videos! I didn't even realize it, legitimately. Fixed it though
Haha no worries Jake! A lot of times viewers often just legitimately forget to subscribe even though they may want to, so that's why I like throwing in little reminders here and there! Appreciate the support.
Brilliant run! Was hoping to see Stunfisk, but forgot he was in the postgame.
THE MOST UNDERRATED POKETUBER!!!! THIS MAN DESERVES AT MINIMUM 500K SUBS
Girl in the ferris wheel acting mad sus tho 👀
Oh no, Clay exists.
Babe get up, Silphs done another nuzlocke
Silph you are the man.
Got a couple ideas:
Love the series so much btw.
A randomized version in any game as a typelocke with you playing and summarizing like with this series would be highly watchable content.
Enabling trade evolutions is so not a big deal in hardcore nuzlockes.
You have got to do a nuzlocke of radical red and gs chronicles. They are legit right up your ally. I am trying to fightlocke both.
clay: im bout to end this mans whole career
Ahhh Silph on Sunday! Was lost last week without it
For once I actually watched the whole sponsorship just because that transition into it was so god damn smooth
No Silph ins't just you, i can see the problem with this grass path...
Thought about galvantra before I even clicked play! That Pokémon is a legend with its ability, high special attack and speed. It also learns some pretty amazing moves. I loved using it in my play through
me wondering why he didn’t use volt switch to switch instead of hard switching
Can you make a fire hardcore Nuzlocke challenge???(pls)
Mickey said that you are allowed in the clubhouse after that sacrifice silph
Why are you being so awkward about her being flirty on the ride? Lol
How about a bug\ water type run in pokemon black\white 1
Why didn’t you pick up an Tynamo in charge stone cave
It has levitate and is immune to ground types
He's limited to one encounter per route and ran into Joltik first. He catches Tynamo later. Since he can guarantee Tynamo later this is optimal, since if he encountered Tynamo in Chargestone he'd be unable to obtain Joltik.
Actually you can evolve elekid without trading just give it to hold the electrizer and level it up it evolves i tried it and it worked
Yeah....no. That only works in modded roms. The only way to evolve trade evolution pokemon in legitimate games without trading was via gts glitches back in the day and more modernly in Legends: Arceus by just using certain items on the pokemon. Elekid evolves into electabuzz via level up, no item needed at all, but Electabuzz can't just evolve into Electivire via level regardless of what item it holds here.
Fun fact about that musharna, it will go for yawn until it sees the sleep status. So that’s why she endlessly spams it.
Watching this run, made really miss Black and White series. It still ranks number 1 in my list of games.
Just came here to watch the match against Clay.. amazing tactics man
12:59 What a sweaty girl!
Commenting for UA-cam algorithms7
i think it's a billie-jo armstrong reference
This run: exists
Clay: I'm about to end this man's whole -career- run
