I hope these mono challenge nuzlockes never stop coming. Dr. Oneball HG is such an entertaining narrator and story teller!
100% agree
Too bad that’s more up to gamefreak than Doctor Oneball😢
@@nickboon1235good thing he plays on a legitimate Gameboy so he can't get copyright strike
Fr
he should do Mono Ghost Pokemon Blue
Dr. HG’s commitment to squarespace by teaching his dog English is incredible
It's Dr. OneballHG sir.
gotta put those old Skillshare sponsorships to use
wrr
@@zes7215why are you typing the sounds of a hand drill
In an alternate universe:
Bartender- sir that’s your 9th mojito. I think you’ve had enough
Flagon HG- I’LL TELL YOU WHEN IVE HAD ENOUGH
Oh I didn't even notice "Flagon" that's super clever
This one had me dying
I just adored the nickname of Mojito. It was so cute.
I love how the good doctor took the time to mock Ducklett only for it to pull through every time it had to. Even the most gen 2 of pokemon can become a champion when they have FlygonHG as their trainer.
Of course. He's the legendary BDSP Enjoyer, winner of first attempt Snaplockes: Dr. Flygon "Oneball" HG
I think we've hit a crazy point. I remember back when we hit the milestone of not having to explain what a nuzlocke is, but not even having to explain what a hardcore nuzlocke is just wild.
I still don’t know the rules or deviations of what those challenges mean/ are.
@@T725db If you want to know in detail, you can check out some of Flygon's oldest videos where he explains exactly what a nuzlocke is, and what a hardcore nuzlocke is. You do need to understand the basics of pokemon games for it to make sense though.
If you want to know without watching another video, then a nuzlocke (not hardcore) has only two rules: you only get one pokemon per route (or region for newer games), and if any pokemon faints it is dead and can never be used again.
A hardcore nuzlocke has extra rules added to make it harder, which ones are used and how they apply depends on who's doing the nuzlocke and what they want to achieve. Flygon's rules can change slightly between videos, so if you want to know which extra rules he's using this time, check the description of the video.
This comment has gone on long enough, so if you want an explanation for any particular rule, just ask!
@@T725db Basically: A Nuzlocke is a playthrough where you can only get a single pokemon per route and if they die they're unusable for the rest of the playthrough, and a Hardcore Nuzlocke adds the rule of not being able to overlevel past the next Gym Leader/last Elite 4/Champion's ace (highest levelled pokemon in their party) before their fight. there are a few other rules you can use too like banning the usage of all status-raising moves, etc., everything to make the game as hard as you want.
That pup really surprises me every time with her many talents. She even makes ads now, what a star
This has to be the first time Fury Cutter has been seriously used in Pokemon
you haven't any seen gen 2 speedruns then
have you heard of this wacky lil guy verlisify
@@ehco7573 I haven't, actually. That's super hype. Where is it used?
@@callmereii I wouldn't really count anything that clown does as serious
@@loganshort7334 Azalea Town Rival and Whitney
I do appreciate how BlackWhite made an effort to focus on an entirely new roster and made for some delightful monsters like Eelektross and Haxorus. I think it could've made some adjustments to the types for greater variation; in example, giving Gothitelle Dark and Reuniclus Poison to better diverge from Musharna and Beheeyem, but overall it was a fun time. What would you have liked it to do in retrospect?
I played B/W at launch and I was underwhelmed because the “reboot” just felt like the series had turned into an imitation of itself. So I guess what I would have done is to avoid doing a near 1-for-1 recreation of gen 1 and try and give gen 5 its own identity instead 🫠
@@SerDerpishgen 5 feels wildly different from gen1, not too sure what the recreation aspect is?

@@Muriuki34To be fair, without audino, grinding in black and white would be literal hell due to how the exp system works in those games.
@@noahtaylor1721 Oh, I'm not saying otherwise. Just that gen 5 reused A LOT of gen 1 concepts
Not only did he do a mono water black run, he did a deathless run.
we dont talk about bruno (/the other 8 attempts)
well obviously, If you've ever attempted a 1 Death = Reset run before then you'd know it takes tons of attempts. this is an insane feat. Monotype and deathless is crazy@@hanachanp5335
The Taylor reference at 2:20. Iconic.
Was scrolling through these comments to see if anyone else caught it
Not enough people are talking about it that was FANTASTIC 😂
“Painkiller is down on Earth trying to pull open a push door.”
Not sure why, but this had me dying lol.
It's the guy breaking the door for me lol
*Proceeds to win the run*
“Most challenging first three gyms”
The Pika graveyard says hi.
Its pretty crazy how 8 is a record low for water types. For most types 8 would be a record high
Ahh I’ve been so excited for this run!! Black and White are my favourite Pokémon games (tied with B2W2 and Platinum), water type is one of my favourite types, and Oshawott is my favourite starter! Godspeed gamers!
"5 in a row is lower than 77%"
Okay, i mean, thats still really goo-
"Which is less than a single stone edge"
*Real Shit*
Much respect for doing this challenge in B/W instead of B2/W2! Always a good day when Flygon posts 🙌
When Flygon mentioned on Twitter that he made the best sponsorship segment I knew I had to tune in. Wasn't disappointed.
"And Razor Shell has 95% accuracy, which may as well be 50%"
Truer words have never been spoken.
I'm excited for this one considering how brutal the early game gets. Let's see how it goes.

EDIT: Only 9 attempts to get past Cilan. That was actually pretty good.
i always love the random taylor reference and it's always at a different point in the video but i notice every single one.
I thought I was the only one that noticed them. Makes sense since Matti's a Swiftie
I love the cocktail naming theme! It's so fun!
14:45 I just love this rant about Basculin's horrible IVs. Great video as always!
FlygonHG's sponsorships are the only I don't ignore on UA-cam and I look forward to them every week
My favorite one is, "A square-shaped badge for a square shape space............. hey wait a minute, that's a rectangle...) 🤣
respect for the well thought strategy during the second badge. well played well played
Just played Black for the first time! Loved it to bits. Started with Oshawott, added an Excadrill, Chandelure and Leavanny to the mix!
S tier team. Gen 5 has some awesome mons
This seems like such a well planned run especially in the late game. You had a great strategy for each battle and even when stuff went wrong you had a backup plan.
This was an amazing run! So many well executed strategies and a diverse team (considering its all watertypes too).
The elite 4 especially were a great watch!
You were very mean to that duck who did you an absolute solid all run :(
What a niche corner of the internet I’ve fallen hard into. Flygon, you are seriously so entertaining. Your videos are well-paced, nicely-lengthened, and so very satisfying- win or lose.
Wow. Despite how great water types are, this run and your strategies for it are insane. Goes to show how important type matchups are.
Also never thought I would see the old Fury Cutter being vital to a strategy...
Anyway, I would like to once again recommend another no stab moves run like I usually do on each video. This time I'll actually recommend Platinum sine this is already a Black / White video. I'll also recommend adding a rule to fight every trainer available before the next level cap because I think it's fun and makes the run more interesting.
I absolutely love these monotype challenges! Gotta do the monotype for every type available in every game! And I will watch them all!!
You know it's a fun challenge when Matti's fighting the 8th gym leader and the video isn't even halfway done
You already know it's a good day
Heck yeah! You know when FlygonHG uploads, your day gets 200% better.
6:42 I was so confused when he said lostlorn Forest (he meant pinwheel forest) is where he got Mai Tai the simipour because you can also get simipour in lostlorn, but you can't get there until directly after burgh's gym and having strength in nimbassa. I play these games too much. But yeah I did think flygonhg had a sequence break here.
You can't tell me little duckletts face doesn't give you cuteness aggression
I’ve been waiting for this exact Nuzlocke challenge since the normal type emerald run 2 years ago. Your channel has grown so much since then. Thank you Dr. FlygonHG!
watching this after binging hg's older videos, its so fun seeing how much his content has improved :-)
flygon: "consider subscribing to this channel. you might think you already are but there's a pretty good chance you're not."
me, who literally came to this video because i got a notification for it: "oh shit am i not let me check"
This team is lookin like a tall glass of water!
I really love how Mr Oneball always manages to turn a seemingly repetitive style of videos being monotype nuzlockes and actually turning them into something interesting.
Great run, Mono type runs in Black and White are my favorite, i really enjoy the roster in this generation.
Never fail to impress Dr Oneball HG, the content is just always top draw and we can tell a lot of work goes into these videos.
Don't call my boy Keldeo "this thing"! He brave. He fight. He musketeer.
Perhaps an electric only run of HG/SS would be an interesting one, since he struggled through the fire red one with only electrics. There are only like, 7 of them
This was so much fun - great job on the challenge! :D
Man i love flygon hg videos
I always look forward to new videos, but I've also rewatched many times.
Love your content
I’m also really enjoying watching the Storm Silver playthru on the highlights channel!
I've been watching your videos for a while and gosh they just only get better and better. They're always a treat so thank you :) Also BEST SQUARESPACE SHOUTOUT EVER POPPY!!
Thank you for being such an awesome UA-camr. I’ve been having a rough time lately, but listening to your videos gives me comfort and makes me smile. Keep it up! You’re awesome!!
YES FLYGON HG YOU JUST SAVED MY SATURDAY AFTERNOON
Out of topic from the amazing nuzlocke, Ive been scrolling through the comments when I noticed this and saw NO ONE has caught this or commended about it!
I dont know if its just a coincidence, but I think he made a small Taylor Swift refrence in 2:20.
He said, "Still at the restaurant, right where you left me".
The line; "still at the restaurant" is a lyric from Taylor Swift's song "Right Where You Left Me" from her album Evermore.
(If you are curious, the full lyrics are; "Help, I'm still at the restaurant" which is basically the same as what he said, he just removed the word help)
Either this is just a big coincidence or Mr. Flygon here is a Swiftie
Gahd, I remember trying this challenge and thinking it was impossible to pass the second gym. It’s truly brutal.
Congratulations on beating the game deathless bro. I was on the edge of my seat watching this. Keep up the success on your channel bro.
i did a similar nuzlocke in black 2 and my swanna literally sweped almost every pokemon in the e4 with brave bird
FlygonHG: has a Pokémon that evolves from a duck into a swan
Also FlygonHG: names it Paloma (dove/pigeon in Spanish)
Well the best video to end my day. Love from India. Keep up good work flygon
my favourite pokémon game and my favourite pokémon type as a mono nuzlocke, living the dream rn
Idk how- but this was the only sponsor segment that I didn’t skip through
That add and those first 3 gyms were brilliant 😊
Samurott, Alomomola, Carracosta, and Jellicent are pretty good Gen 5 Water-types, so this should be easy.
It is getting colder now and i am always so exited to cuddle myself into bed and watch a new 1BallHG video before sleeping. Truly the best time
I always love these Gen 5 challenges from Dr Flygon!
"Still at the restaurant, right where you left me" was the most unexpected Taylor swift reference but I'm here for it
Would love to see a G/S/C run! The graphics are so nostalgic
It's really difficult to do runs of those with time schedule due to the raw amount of grinding necessary
I truly don't remember when I discovered and subbed to Dr. HG (maybe a year, a year and a half?) or how I even found him in the first place, but I'm so happy I did. These nuzlockes are truly a highlight of my week. Algorithm w, I guess!
Now I'll never unsee tympole as Kevin James
sundays (australia time) are my favourite day of the week bc it's flygonhg video day ❤️
In B2/W2 you can only use two water types for the first 3 gyms.
Oooh, a half hour long Flygon HG video! My horoscope was right!
Awesome job Dr. One ball HG. My hat's off to you
I saw this upload and started shaking with joy. Black/white was the greatest Pokémon game ever made
Pretty random but I just had an idea: What if there were alternate dark type evolutions for the elemental monkeys, like the gossip pokemon, the eavesdropping pokemon, and the spying pokemon.
Poppy should ALWAYS do your sponsorship segments! Soooo precious!!!
Frillish is my 2nd favorite pokemon so this video makes me excited
Awesome content as always
I am SO GLAD I went back to watch the ad. Kudos.
in Swanna's defense they did flying types in general pretty dirty in gen 5.
Unfezant is god awful
emolga is a pikaclone
vullaby and rufflet evolve at LEVEL 54 FOR SOME REASON
outside of that it's legendaries and Archeops
i know that your hardcore nuzlocke challenges are not easy. i could NEVER! but also you make them look so easy because you nail them! you are a champ! though the critical hit dodges were quite a few this run
Loved the cocktail names
I used Seismitoad for the first time recently and he is becoming one of my favorite water mons for sure. just an all around threat
Great video, Would like to see a challenge in Platinum with only new Gen 4 evos ( I.E. Roserade, Leafeon, Probopass etc), could be a really fun challenge I think.
Oshawott in the thumbnail = peak cinema
I swear I have not heard FlygonHG sound this so relieved, excited, and hyped for Mojito defeating Burgh's Leavanny. 😅
I never fast forward your ads thanks yo that amazing tune
I've tried this challenge without hard level caps and it's still a Major early game grind with the gen 5 EXP system
I once used a solid rock carracosta in a nuzloke, it was a very good tank that helped a lot in bad situations!!
I always forget that he posts on Saturdays and I always get so excited 😅
This run is awesome! nice
Finally made it through the add without skipping, go Poppy!
Loved the nickname theme
you're in top everytime i open my youtube i'm not a pro nuzlocker but i know the pain of reset keep it up bro 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Super fun one! The sponsor segment was a nice change up!
Mono water in black is good and I appreciate that. And if u include the post game. Black and White are the only ganes u can do a no catch run and still have a full team at the end(since ur are forced to catch the box legend as a mandatory catch). Would be interesting to see how u would handle such a run. I've done 1 in my spare time. Was very unique
That random shell bell save to Gimlet was so crucial to the elite 4, it's pretty crazy if you think about it, especially how Gimlet was the MVP for the next elite 4s. Dayum
new video as soon as i get on youtube, nice
Too many hilarious bits. Good one!
I love the BW Credits theme. Such a good one.
I love the deathless runs!
I am STUNNED that you beat Lenora with no deaths. Nice strategy!
Don't be mean to Swanna though...
