UNOFFICIAL Pokemon Nuzlocke Challenge Thread


~British Soul~

Recommended Posts

I know that many people want to do or are doing Nuzlocke Challenge, but for those who don't know what a Nuzlocke Challenge is:

What is a Nuzlocke Challenge:
The [b]Nuzlocke Challenge[/b] is a set of rules intended to create a higher level of difficulty while playing the Pokemon Games, Many challengers feel that the rules also serve the purpose of encouraging the use of Pokémon the player would not normally choose, and promoting closer bonds with the player's Pokémon. The rules are not an in-game function, but are self-imposed on the part of the player, and thus subject to variation.

The 2 main rules of a Nuzlocke Challenge are:
1. You can only capture the first Pokemon he encountered in each new area.
2. If a Pokemon fainted he would consider it dead and release it.

there are also some [u]optional[/u] rules including:
- Nicknaming your pokemon to form a stronger bond with them
- If all your pokemon faint, its game over

i have been doing a Pokemon Silver Nuzlocke for a couple of days now (it would seem like a week with the grinding i've been doing), and i've only gotten the Hive Badge

Once I get my sh*t together and transfer my Saphire Pokemon, I might do this. Wish there were multiple save files.
Or I could do this with Black 2 & White 2. That would be interesting, seeing as how I haven't played the originals and have little knowledge of Unova pokemon in general.
Anyway, have fun with that.

Doing one in Platinum at the moment:

[b]On hand:[/b]
Infernape Lvl 36
Gible Lvl 22
Rotom Lvl 26
Leafeon Lvl 27

[b]RIP:[/b]
Dustox Lvl 14 (Defeated by Gardenia's Roserade).

I'm going by the rules of:
1. If you faint, it's "dead" and you can't use it.
2. You can only use the Pokemon Center in each town/city twice before you challenge the Gym (after, you can use it as many times as you want).
3. Nickname your team (I couldn't think of names and used Game of Thrones characters, they are too embarrassing to post).
4. You can only use healing items you find on the ground.

I just train them to hell and back and battle every trainer I can find.
