As a lay out for nuzlocke rules, there are 3 1. One encounter per route/area 2. Faint = death 3. Nickname everything Dupes clause and whiteout=reset are general rules which most players play with (although the reset rule is cruel to beginners) Hardcore rules 1. No bag items except pokeballs in battle 2. No overlevelling 3. Play on set mode

for gen 1 im pretty sure it also includes no intentional use of the badge boost glitch as well, its ok if you gain its effect due to something the opponent does, but you arent really allowed to do it yourself. of course, you can use stats boost for the intended stat, but not for something like using amnesia for speed boost.

And in Gen 2 and later, another commonly used clause is Shiny clause, i.e. if you encounter a random shiny (the red Gyarados does not count), you are allowed to attempt to catch it even if you have already gotten your encounter for that route. Also I guess a kinda implicit exception to the rules would be that if you get so unlucky as to not have any encounter that can learn a HM you need to progress further, you are allowed to catch a HM friend solely for the purpose of using HMs.

3:11 To clarify the duplicate clause is optional to give you more team variety and doesn't say you can't catch duplicates, just that you have the option to re-encounter that's why it's called a clause. A lot of people either misunderstand / misinterpret the it as a rule where you can't have any dupes when it was initially just made so that people wouldn't end up with a team full of pidgeys thanks to bad encounter luck for example.

For anyone who wants to nuzlocke gen 1 (hardcore or normal), a good thing to keep in mind is that crit chance is based off your Pokemon's base speed. So faster Pokemon crit more often. Also Venusaur is a great option as razor leaf legitimately almost always crits (regardless of speed from my experience). Pokemon like Raticate are extremely valuable early game for this purpose. Same with Pokemon like Jolteon, for another example.

Woo, exiting that we are exploring new topics! I have done a few nuzlocke runs (in gen1) and managed to win, but my problem is that I normally let my pokemon get close to 0 hp before healing, and it is hard to get used to healing more often. Also, my personal house rule is to release the starter before battling Brock, I feel like they are too powerful to make it feel real. Adding to that, no new pokemon can be caught if I have a full team. Other than that, during battle, only status altering items are allowed.

@@tewu8257 I do it for my own enjoyment, and I personally don't think it is fair to have a huge team of pokemon to chose among. The point of a Nuzlocke to me is to be forced to play with pokemon you normally wouldn't pick. It also helps in making the game more difficult, you cannot cherrypick the best pokemons. Plus, it makes it more exciting once a team member goes down, what will be the replacement? But to each their own!

Personally I think the "challenge" part of Hardcore Nuzlockes is often overstated regardless of generation. It's why so many people throw in additional rules like mono-typings, Or they run Kaizo games where rather than playing a Pokemon game they're basically just rolling a needlessly complicated and tedious slot machine to get the encounters needed to even make the run possible.

I play hardcore nuzlockes for simply two reasons. First, every time I start a fresh game of Pokemon I immediately start theory crafting the dream team that I want. I'm in my mid 30ths and first played Pokemon since it debuted in America. In Generation 1 and 2, I didn't exactly have the mindset for creating a dream team; however, in Gen 2 I did choose my favorite Pokemons over others. So, even at my age, there are still Pokemon that I have never used; let alone through an entire playthrough. Hardcore Nuzlocke forces me to explore and use Pokemons I would normally never use. Second, I like to *mimic* the difficulty of the games like they were when I was a child. I'm not saying that the games were hard back then (deff. easier now than then though) but that I didn't have the mindset or the resources that I do now. Playing Nuzlocke, I am forced to play at a difficulty that brings a level of nostalgia to the playthrough.
@fxbking89569 ай бұрын
The thing about Hardcore Nuzlocke challenges with type exclusivities, is that it really forces the player to go with really outstanding strategies to get over at least one Gym/Elite 4 battle, requiring very precise foretelling of events, and sometimes incredible adaptability and luck. I started watching Hardcore Nuzlockes after finding your channel, and it was night and day, as like you said, you're a very reckless player that tends to use very straightforward strategies, whereas the Nuzlocke player I watch is super meticulous in order to successfully win his runs.

I've started playing Nuzlockes a while ago, and I started on Fire Red which is very good for it. It's not too challenging but not as broken as gen 1 either. Also abilities give a lot more variety and different interactions to play around. I lost my first run due not getting a good answer to Rival 2's Charmander and some unfortunate burns in the fight, the second one I almost ran out of pokemon to use but managed to grind a team all the way up and swept the Elite four with it. I'm currently barking up Soul Silver, which has taken me a good number of attempts, first time trying it with a duplicate clause now and it feels a lot better, especially with the number of duplicate encounters Johto and gen 2 Kanto have.

Honestly, due to your solo run series, where you have broken down how to consistently win every fight, you could easily take the information from those, to be the healla best gen 1 nuzlocker.
Love the video! Always fun to watch Nuzlocke challenges. I'm not the best at them, but I do enjoy them now and again
Thank you for all of this content Jrose! Don't burn yourself out!
Just wanted to thank you for getting me into Nuzlocking, love this vid & the Gen 2 one!
Loving all the content from recent videos, is something I eager want to watch after work and before going to bed
You are really the best Pokemon content creator on KZhead to me. I was wondering what kind of content would come after the solo runs, really happy with the nuzlock decision and the way you approached it.
Ooh, now this is an interesting new idea for a video! I’m really curious to see what tips and tricks you’ll have for us!
Thank you for acknowledging that by default, nuzlocks aren't defeat=gameover. So many people just assume it because most content creators use it
Because that rule makes sense? The Nuzlocke Challenge is supposed to be centered around permadeath after all.
@@tewu8257 It is centered around permadeath. When your whole team dies, they're all dead. You lost some good friends, but it's time to pull yourself up by your bootstraps, grab that abandoned pidgey out of the PC and try to make it work
@@priestesslucy3299 well the way i see it is when the character "whites out" its like dying in a normal video game. Nevertheless i can see the appeal in saving the run with pokemon you normally wouldnt use, so your ruleset also makes sense
@@tewu8257 I can't remember a time it's actually happened, but I do accept Gameover in a Whiteout vs a wild Pokemon. No Pokemon to protect you means you done got eaten lol
Earliest I've ever been! It's insane how you're doing a video a day for a month, I can't even imagine how much prep time that's taken. Glad you're here!
Your content is so consistent, but I love that you're still willing to try stuff out
Really liking all your new content. Appreciate your work!
Really happy to see you pumping out the content Jrose
Your breezy style keeps each video novel, it's quite the peaceful vibe.
ANOTHER NEW SERIES?!?! Jrose you absolute legend. Favorite KZheadr by far
I'd LOVE to see a hardcore randomizer run I don't know how you are doing all this content lately my dude but good stuff!!
Just for your consistency you deserve 1 mil subs. Also thanks for your work
Cant wait to see gen 2!!! (My favorite gen)! Keep up the great work, loving jrose month!!
Yoooo jrose!! thank you for this month of banger content, you’re killing the game lately!
Keep up the content grind man I love it gets me through exam season
I look forward to more of this series!
Why did it take me so long to notice all your thumbnails are reminiscent of the original gameboy game packaging? That is so awesome!
For anyone who wants to nuzlocke gen 1 (hardcore or normal), a good thing to keep in mind is that crit chance is based off your Pokemon's base speed. So faster Pokemon crit more often. Also Venusaur is a great option as razor leaf legitimately almost always crits (regardless of speed from my experience). Pokemon like Raticate are extremely valuable early game for this purpose. Same with Pokemon like Jolteon, for another example.
More of these, Jrose? Also.. you’re putting out videos so incredibly quick! I haven’t been around in a while and am surprised to see you’re putting out tons of videos :) got a lot to catch up on
he’s doing a month of daily uploads (somehow)
I've been watching how people do nuzlockes, but to see the run from the inside is different. Thank you for the interesting video=)
JohnstoneYT's randomized nuzlockes were so fun to follow. I'm hyped for this series from you, JRose!
So exciting to see you doing this kind of challenge!
Thank you jrose11 for doing this challenge. I've never done a nuzlocke before and it was interesting seeing a person with no experience doing this run. Also day three asking if physical chansey is possible. Thank you for another amazing video.
Loving the variety of your videos lately
I really love that you just play the game how you want it’s what Pokémon is really about everyone using Pokémon to help them enjoy their time with them it just makes me happy
It's nice to have a video to look forward to watch every day.
"I'm not speedrunning but I do want to beat it as fast as possible." Yeah that's called speedrunning.
Dude, I have been waiting for this for sooooo long.
I'm looking forward to Pokemon Challenges breaking down your video! :D
Woo, exiting that we are exploring new topics! I have done a few nuzlocke runs (in gen1) and managed to win, but my problem is that I normally let my pokemon get close to 0 hp before healing, and it is hard to get used to healing more often. Also, my personal house rule is to release the starter before battling Brock, I feel like they are too powerful to make it feel real. Adding to that, no new pokemon can be caught if I have a full team. Other than that, during battle, only status altering items are allowed.
Those are some weird rules... Choosing a team of 6 pokemon best suited for the next important fight requires a lot of skill. Only having 6 pokemon at a time delets that skill part of the game and makes the quality of your team way more random.
@@tewu8257 I do it for my own enjoyment, and I personally don't think it is fair to have a huge team of pokemon to chose among. The point of a Nuzlocke to me is to be forced to play with pokemon you normally wouldn't pick. It also helps in making the game more difficult, you cannot cherrypick the best pokemons. Plus, it makes it more exciting once a team member goes down, what will be the replacement? But to each their own!
@@staffan- sure i undestand that. Although i think there are better ways of nerfing/making your team more interesting, like only using unevolved pokemon or pokemon of a certain type.
Love this video, I had no idea what nuzlock was until now.
Keep being you JRose. That's why we love you 👍
I'm loving the variety, firstly because they're great ideas, secondly because it means there's more videos before we're finishing Gen 1, which that'll be sad when Gen 1 is finished, as strange as that is to say about videos for a 25 y/o video game that I had done playing 23 or 24 years ago, but I'll miss the Gen 1 runs, it's a special Gen.
So happy to see this Jrose. Hope you had a lot of fun 😘
Even if it wasn't very challenging, it was still fun to watch. Can't wait for the gen 2 one!
Bro you are pumping out like a video a day. What a fucking champ. Thank you!
I don't even know how you do it, man. This month of uploads is insane!!
A randomizer nuzlocke in Gen 1 shakes things up quite a lot. I did one in Yellow, and the amount of times I ran into a Mewtwo that wiped most of my team (either wild or via trainer) was horrifying.
Loving all the various content!
Finally!!! I’ve been hoping for this 🎉🎉
“I don’t even wanna talk about Bruno” I don’t know if that was on purpose, but that was just an incredible line.
It is getting more common for nuzlockers to use rare candies and the disable ev's because thats only grinding and not having skill in pokemon nuzlocking so if you continue to play nuzlock give it a try:D Love your vids and thank you for uploading everyday. It helps me
Refreshing take on nuzlocke content. Dope.
Please do these more, I would love to see more of this in your signature jrose style
Absolutely smashing content here bro
Personally I think the "challenge" part of Hardcore Nuzlockes is often overstated regardless of generation. It's why so many people throw in additional rules like mono-typings, Or they run Kaizo games where rather than playing a Pokemon game they're basically just rolling a needlessly complicated and tedious slot machine to get the encounters needed to even make the run possible.
I am a huge fan of doing randomized nuzlockes (or wonder trade nuzlockes in new games). Also, I inadvertently add an additional rule, which is no using Boxes. Once I have 6 in my team, that's it until a space opens~
I don't know if the night and day joke was on purpose or not, but I got a big chuckle when you said it considering Gen. 2 is the one where the day/night mechanic was implemented lol
JRose11 doing nuzlockes is the smile I didn’t know I needed today
Amazing you really upload a video every. Single. DAY! Love you JRose! Keep on going ❤️ Edit: also please play the Crystal clear romhack and make bunch of crazy videos about it ❤️❤️❤️
Polished Crystal > Crystal Clear 😋
@@priestesslucy3299 you told me first about this romhack and I studied some videos. So what does it make worth playing in your opinion and what are your personal highlights if it's not too much to ask! Best greetings 🙌
@@errorfilenotfound It's basically: What if Crystal was made in Gen 6/7 with lots of love and unrushed development. Clear has its Open World gimmick which is cool, but Polished Crystal is a better game as a whole. it's far more.... _polished_ 🥁
Love how after 25+ years, gen 1 games still get love (although a lot of hate too). Keep it up Jrose!
Fuck the haters
I play hardcore nuzlockes for simply two reasons. First, every time I start a fresh game of Pokemon I immediately start theory crafting the dream team that I want. I'm in my mid 30ths and first played Pokemon since it debuted in America. In Generation 1 and 2, I didn't exactly have the mindset for creating a dream team; however, in Gen 2 I did choose my favorite Pokemons over others. So, even at my age, there are still Pokemon that I have never used; let alone through an entire playthrough. Hardcore Nuzlocke forces me to explore and use Pokemons I would normally never use. Second, I like to *mimic* the difficulty of the games like they were when I was a child. I'm not saying that the games were hard back then (deff. easier now than then though) but that I didn't have the mindset or the resources that I do now. Playing Nuzlocke, I am forced to play at a difficulty that brings a level of nostalgia to the playthrough.
The thing about Hardcore Nuzlocke challenges with type exclusivities, is that it really forces the player to go with really outstanding strategies to get over at least one Gym/Elite 4 battle, requiring very precise foretelling of events, and sometimes incredible adaptability and luck. I started watching Hardcore Nuzlockes after finding your channel, and it was night and day, as like you said, you're a very reckless player that tends to use very straightforward strategies, whereas the Nuzlocke player I watch is super meticulous in order to successfully win his runs.
In earlier Gens, types are pretty unbalanced and some are so much better than others.
myself, i was always a fan of a limited species clause, where you couldn't just stay on a route and force a rare encounter if you had all of the commons already. in past nuzlockes i attempted like 10 years ago i would limit it to 3 encounters on any given route just to make it so you're not "guaranteed" certain pokemon, made it a little more interesting of a challenge.
no matter what you decide to do we are here to watch you =)
I'm interested to see what this Experience will bring. I do hope that for the gen2 vid you keep your narration a bit more chronological.
It would be really cool if you do a nuzlocke for every gen game from red and blue till sword and shield and then rate them like in terms of difficulty, fun, time, amount of deaths lol.(maybe only do it until sun and moon since they have speed up)
It must've taken forever to set up a whole months worth of content. It's working out well though, thanks for the fun times Jrose! I wonder how much you'll change when you hit 10 million subs lol
Keep up the great content Jrose!
Nuzrose forgot the most important nuzlocking rule: You have to give a nickname to all your mons!
Thats the least important rule lol
Oooh nice, a nuzlocke! This is going to be fun for sure.
This is only the second Nuzloc I've seen but enjoyed it thanks
Man, I just finish a hardcore nuzlocke of red and you basically condense my experience down into 22 minutes. Slowbro sweep the majority of the end game with surf, psychic, and ice beam. The mostly free haunter make the snorlax a free catch with night shade that hit normal type, being immune to its only move, and hypnosis to abuse the broken sleep mechanics. Cloyster just sweep the eight gym with surf and snorlax easily beat sabrina with strength. It's certainly an experience, even though I prefer the remakes for many reasons, including less jank and more storage. It's still worth trying out.
Here I thought I was going to skip this vid because I don't do Nuzlocke vids usually, but this was very different and I LIKED that, so thanks for convincing me to keep through it! =) Also, what's this you're hinting at? That Gen 2 of Pokemon IS more of a challenge for Nuzlockes? Considering solo run-wise, Gen 2 is a generation of Pokemon you said in the past ISN'T very well-suited for challenge runs most of the time. Will Nuzlockes finally turn that around?
Love the new thumbnail. Classic Jrose.
I was about to sleep but Jrose posted so obviously I have to watch it
When you lost your rattata to a wild pikachu and didn’t even mention it in the commentary 😭😂
I never had any interest in doing any sort of nuzlocke until I heard jrose talking about a nuzlocke. This is why jrose is the goat!
I am here wondering if i will ever find love and jrose is here to cheer me up, thanks man, it means a lot.
I've enjoyed for the past few Pokémon games doing a Nuzlocke as my first run of the game, before I look up anything about a Pokémon's stats, evolution path, or typing. It's genuinely been a lot of fun to try Pokémon I'd normally pass up, or to find hidden gems on strange routes. I don't do the whiteout rule, though, since that'd be way too brutal for me.
"I dont even want to talk about Bruno" yeah because WE DONT TALK ABOUT BRUNO NO NO
I LOVE your content!
Awesome. These are going to be Awesome. 😄👍
I recently did this since I needed to clear red and blue a few times for a living dex kind of thing, and the end result is basically what you described. Early game you want to be careful, so you end up grinding in middling spots, abd after that, frankly even matters what you use, because the odds are so stacked in your favor. Yeah I won, but it was so trivial I didn't even add it to my Nuzlocke tracking. I couldn't tell you what my team was beyond kadabra getting blown up by a random voltorb or something.
Tears in my eyes seeing an evolved Poliswag 🥺🥺🥺
I would absolutely love to see you nuzlocke all of the gens WITHOUT items !
I've started playing Nuzlockes a while ago, and I started on Fire Red which is very good for it. It's not too challenging but not as broken as gen 1 either. Also abilities give a lot more variety and different interactions to play around. I lost my first run due not getting a good answer to Rival 2's Charmander and some unfortunate burns in the fight, the second one I almost ran out of pokemon to use but managed to grind a team all the way up and swept the Elite four with it. I'm currently barking up Soul Silver, which has taken me a good number of attempts, first time trying it with a duplicate clause now and it feels a lot better, especially with the number of duplicate encounters Johto and gen 2 Kanto have.
The cliffhanger to the gen 2 nuzlocke has me hooked.
I've been inspired to make a video like this, but with a strat where you're 100% guarenteed to win no matter how bad ur luck is
"Nuzlocking really rewards patience [...] I will never be doing that." 😂😂
Yo what are we gonna do when the month of Jrose is over? Im getting so spoiled lol. Thanks for making our month bro!
Hell yes!!! Long live Jrose and his 30 straight days of pokemon challenges!!! Day 16
So Another channel is running a nuzlock of the entire series (normal nuzlock but cant repeat pokemon in different games either), but is using a ruleset I'm not the biggest fan of (ex, choosing encounters for routes and not counting the entire evolution line mainly), along with the fact that I just like your commentary more, I'd really enjoy seeing you do something like this eventually. I know you said you're not much of a normal nuzlock fan, but that could put a different spin on it. Just throwing some ideas out there. Either way, I've really been enjoying this month, keep it up.
This was really enjoyable.
Loving evolutions actually, with all the gen 1 shenanigans!
"My perspective will be different than that of the other NUTZLOCKERS you watch" honestly i've heard the term but this is the first time someone took the time to explain to me what the heck a Nutzlock *is* so first of all thanks for that :3 unfortunately (or fortunately?) it always makes me think of an ASMR video where a lady was going "nuzzle nuzzle nuzzle" while wearing a doggy outfit, which was very cute. So that's gonna be forever stuck in my head forever.
