I might do one when I have time although I will add in a few additional rules like a species clause just so I don't get the same Mon twice.

...I think I might start a new one myself. It'll give me something to keep me entertained.

I already have a strategy for the Nuzlocke challenge. It's based off my 1st run of Pokemon red a few years ago...

Step 1: Just pick Squirtle. Turtles are awesome, especially water turtles. Besides, the Squirtle evo line stats are nice.
Step 2: Instead of training the Squirtle into a defensive tank like what's obvious, train it into a sweeper instead.
Step 3: Watch the gym leaders, elite 4, and Gary Oak struggle :demon:

Result: Squirtle/Wartortle/Blastoise was the only pokemon I had to use in 85% of the battles.
This strategy is impossible In RB.. the opponents will never start to struggle because they don't lose pp due to a glitch :dazwa: :denzel:

My character is named "Grrrrt" which is one of my random gamer tags. I have chosen Oshawott as my starter. I named him "Plop" after Devil May Plop Devil May Plop . As expected, my rival picked Snivy. I won on the first rival battle, thankfully. Losing my first match would be pretty embarrassing...

Participant List:
Oshawott ( Devil May Plop Devil May Plop ) Teammate #1

I'm assuming the encounters don't count if the game hasn't given you pokeballs yet?

I'm gonna do one for HeartGold. I'll just need to familiarize myself with the rules...

That's all up to you. Personally, I'm always interested to see how these things go. Nuzlockes are entertaining.
Well i still rather ask because I'm not found of running my mouth to others who don't want to hear, and partially because my nuzlocke uses a randomized game instead of a standard, so i wasn't sure if someone wanted to hear it

There will be certain optional rules I will allow for this run.

  • Starter Pokémon is based on the player's Trainer ID number. If the last number is 1-3 the player starts with a Grass type, 4-6 is Fire type, 7-9 is Water type, 0 is the player's choice.
  • Species/Dupes Clause: Adjusting the first encounter rule to prevent the player from having to catch multiple of the same Pokémon, for the sake of variety. Generally this means that the trainer can keep fighting Pokémon in the area until one is encountered that has not been caught yet, which then immediately counts as the first encounter.
  • Not officially enforcing the rules until the player has Poké Balls and can catch Pokémon. For example, the PoochyenaRS/ZigzagoonE that the player has to save Professor Birch from is not counted as the first encounter on the route, and not counting any other encounters as such until they can catch. Likewise, in the games where the rival battle is immediately after getting the starter Pokémon, the "any that faint must be released" rule is not enforced at that time.
  • Since Ho-oh is required to be fought, no catching/using Legendary Pokémon.
  • As a mercy rule, if the player runs into a Shiny Pokémon, the player may still catch it, regardless of whether or not it is the first encounter in the area. It also does not need to be released if it faints. This is often called the Shiny Clause.

EDIT: Added Shiny Clause.

Patrat was the first pokemon I found. I named it "Dank Pitto" :p I was hoping I would have run into a Purrloin first...

Current Team:
Oshawott ( Devil May Plop Devil May Plop ) Member #1
Patrat ( Darkpit54 Darkpit54 ) Member #2

I'll give another update either when I lose or when I beat the first gym.

You were the one to bring up Nuzlockes, but since my post was what reminded/inspired you to bring it up, I would say we both had a part in it.

That aside I agree. This is great.
