Disclaimer: This video was made ages ago and could of had better production qualities, I'm still getting back into making regular vids. Hardcore Nuzlockes are very commonplace now, especially in vanilla pokemon games, but the reality is that anyone with even the slightest competency in nuzlocking will burn through those games with little effort, most of it is literally spamming the a button over and over till you win. It is because of this reason that the term ‘hardcore plus’ has been coined, basically standard hardcore nuzlockes but harder, in this video the extra rules added will be a complete removal of ev’s from the game to greatly reduce the power of your mons, evs are kind of a noob carry mechanic, basically giving you a huge advantage over the ai which has no evs at all, diminishing the need for proper teambuilding when something like a max attack swampert an just 2 shot everything at most while tanking, not to mention ev’s are very inconvenient to play with, the other rule I add is no setup moves, of course dragon dance spam and linoone are so stupid and completely invalidates most nuzlcokes, we’re not about that here. Also one more thing, no shedinja for obvious reasons. But you know what, with these rulesets base pokemon emerald is still very easy, a cakewalk at that, requiring no planning at all, lame. So I went one step beyond and asked myself, can I do this nuzlocke without losing a single pokemon? That’s right, can I be flawless for the entire run? Now this is interesting, now we have to actually use our brains slightly to ensure we dodge certain crits and don’t let our guards down, but still this is a huge step above most of the standardised nuzlocke you see on youtube. So can I beat this nuzlocke with this ruleset? Let’s find out. Here's my twitch chanel: / mrdingdonggames66
