The Pokemon Nuzlocke Thread

[SleepyKrew]

Now doing OR. Gen 7 soon.

[Allomancer]

i suck at pokemon so i could never do this ive never beaten a single game

[Glork]

I'm tempted to Wonderlocke in Pokemon X. (Basically same rules, but immediately after you catch or recieve a pokemon, you must Wonder Trade it away and play with whatever you get in return.)

[Klazam]

tis fun

you get really absurd pokemon sometimes

[SleepyKrew]

let's see if gen 6 normal is weaker
I expect he will be because gym leaders seem to max out at 3 pokemon

[Chevre]

He is weaker, but because you've played Gen 3 you know somewhat what to expect.

My friends who never played RSE but played ORAS were taken by surprise due to his power.

[SleepyKrew]

Yeah this Norman was p weak, compared to Emerald

[Chevre]

Like, I remember the first time I beat Norman in Sapphire and it was because I had to restart the game with Torchic

[SleepyKrew]

Winona's Altaria fucked me up. I went from 0 deaths all run to 4

[Chevre]

Well, from what I remember, Tate and Liza were significantly easier than their RSE counterparts.

[SleepyKrew]

Tate and Liza were pretty easy in Gen 3 as well (or at least in RS).
The issue is I haven't beaten Winona yet. I went in with four because my other two main party Pokes are weak to flying. As are the majority of potential available replacements. rip

[BROseidon]

Emerald has so many places where your Nuzlocke can just die. It's probably the hardest game to Nuzlocke (GSC is pretty bad if you can't get past MILTANK, but other than that there aren't really any problems).

XY is probably the easiest to Nuzlocke because free MEGA LUCARIO GOD DAMMIT.

[Psyche]

emerald was the best

[Annadog40]

Problem with gen two is the grind.

Plan on Nuz gen 7

[SleepyKrew]

I hope exp share is a little weaker. Despite Winona kicking my ass, I was still overleveled even though I avoided fighting wild pokemon.

[Annadog40]

In gen six, the exp All is crazy, I didn't have to grind at all.

[Oman]

Is anyone planning to nuzlocke sun/moon on their first run through? I'm considering it, though it's kind of terrifying.

[SleepyKrew]

I thought about it but I feel like I'll miss out on too much with a blind nuzlocke

[Annadog40]

i'll nuzloke.

Doing it with another scummer actually.

[BROseidon]

I'll do a Nuzlocke first play. It's the ultimate test of skill in Pokemon other than actually playing competitive.

[Klazam]

yeah, im doing a blind nuzlocke also. probably getting one to play blind nuzlocke on, and another one to play normally after im finished with my blind run

[Cheery Dog]

You can restart the blind nuzlocke game? I suppose having multiple is better for easier trades though, it's the only reason I'd get multiple myself.
I'm probably not going to get around to getting any though

[Nexus]

I finally replaced my 3ds charger so am going to start a pokemon platinum nuzlocke.

I remember nothing about pokemon platinum. Should BE LIT.

[Nexus]
