Nuzlocke. Get in here!

[Nichi]

Indeed, when you can just get online and bring up Bulbapedia :\

[Chocofreak13]

damn straight. :\

[alfonso_rd_30]

indeed... I'd rather use the THOUSAND pokemon info sites for fre than to pay for the apppppp

[NejinOniwa]

I use Serebii.net personally, I find it more easily navigable on most subjects within a specific game. Bulbapedia is good for specific in-depth things like explanations on Breeding mechanics and the like, though.

Personally, I'm treating ingame trades as no-go. Besides, they're all pretty useless as far as pokemon go anyway, so why bother - this guy in Blackthorn wants to trade his Dodrio...FOR A DRAGONAIR. ARE YOU BROKEN OR SOMETHING?

The Bug-catching contest...I treat that as a separate area of its own, honestly, split into two parts. You need to catch the first pokemon you find in there, UNLESS you're in a contest; if you're in a contest, you can ignore Nuzlocke rules and play it as usual to catch the strongest bug you can and win the contest, AS LONG AS YOU RELEASE IT AFTERWARD. I use the contest as a way to farm Evolutionary stones, not to get bug pokémon.

I also utilize what I refer to as the Tentacruel Clause. It's essentially an extension of the No Dubs rule; while No Dubs does not count upward in the evolution tree, the Tentacruel Clause counts downward. The name comes from its most common application in my case - namely, having caught a Tentacruel allows you to skip catching a Tentacool. Much like the No Dubs rule, it is to promote diversity in your teams.

[Chocofreak13]

if that's the case, i'ma just wait till the contest is on to catch something there and get the most badassery one i can find. SCYTHER? I THINK SO

if all else fails, it'll just be banished to the back of the box, never to be used towards any nuzlocke. (not that this'll come up for awhile, i haven't even beaten bugsy yet due to MASS TRAINING.)


is seribii really better? i've been using bulbapedia this whole time. :0

[Nichi]

I used to use Serebii, but I found Bulbapedia was more convenient; in that, if I want to know the attack power of Mega Punch over Pound, I just search them and have detailed info instantly, or reliable in-game maps of areas, etc.

[Chocofreak13]

the detail can sometimes be confusing, but i'd rather have too much than too little. :\

[NejinOniwa]

Bulbapedia's wiki format makes it easy when you know what you're looking for, but Serebii is better when you don't.

[Chocofreak13]

ahh, okay. i'll stick with it then since i usually look for targeted things.


any updates, people? :3

[Nichi]

Well, I got an LOL from this trainer:


Then, I began my trek toward Vermillion City. Highwind was nearly killed by a rather mean Butterfree, but pulled through in the end and evolved into a Fearow >:3

Also, Blackjack hit level 20, I obtained a bicycle, and caught a Meowth on route 5 (Which I named Nyantaro; as a reference to Softenni >w>). Now, to do some training to get everyone else up to level 20, and then it's time to board the SS Anne

EDIT: I went into Diglet Cave, and caught myself a Diglet (Named Leona. Yes, another Softenni reference); which will help me out with the next Gym :3

[Chocofreak13]

nice, dude. i like having several different types, so in this case Leona will be a major asset. nyantaro will also make training kick that much more ass. -w-

as for that trainer, it reminds me of a former friend who got mad at me because i didn't like her boyfriend. i told her that i found it sad how she based so much of her life around him, and she stopped talking to me. good riddance, as far as i'm concerned. :\

[Nichi]

Indeed. Having multiple types is always nice

So, I just defeated Lt. Surge. I'll let this image speak for itself


Now, to do some training, obtain Flash, and crawl through the Rock Tunnel

EDIT: Caught myself a Drowzee (Named it Osaka, after the character from Azumanga Daioh -w-). Now, to train her and then head into the Rock Tunnel

[alfonso_rd_30]

Well, I'm way behind in my regular  game and I'm glad I switched to Regular... If I had tried nuzzlocke I'd have ti restart... I went to town 2 where the bitch bugsy Floored me with that Motherfucking scyther, but in the second  attempt I went smart and creamed hir...

here's my After Gym party:



it's implied that I'm not renaming the cokemonz

[Nichi]

So, I'm making my way to the Rock Tunnel...and BaconDick bit the dust along the way ;_;
