After I defeated Watson I did a ton of story stuff, caught half a dozen pokemon and then went to Mt. Chimney to defeat Team Aqua and retrieve the meteor. Archie got 3 or 4 crits in and killed half my team, so there will be much grinding before I go to Flannery's gym. Current Team: Andy lvl 28 Freddie lvl 28 Gillian lvl 25 Edwin lvl 10 Laura, met lvl 13, Naughty Mike, met lvl 14, Quirky In PC - Alive: Ivan lvl 8 Jessica lvl 8 Kelly lvl 13 Nathan, met lvl 16, Impish Ophelia, met lvl 14, Docile Patricia, met lvl 16, Calm Queenie, met lvl 16, Jolly R.I.P.: Carlos lvl 13. died to a crit from a lvl 8 taillow on route 116 Diana lvl 24, died to a crit from Archie's Golbat at Mt. Chimney Humphrey lvl 24, died to a crit from Archie's Golbat at Mt. Chimney Brenda lvl 28, died to Archie's Sharpedo at Mt. Chimney. T.T there are far too many crits from my opponents.

quick update, I earned two badges and am currently on route 48 grinding my pokes in preparation to face jasmine. I acquired almost ten pokes in the course of the weekend and I'll get a more proper update later when I get to a real computer (I'm on my droid right now).

I haven't been playing much, I'm taking this nuzlocke slowly. But, I still have an update: Lovissa , level 22 Lethrblaka , level 26 Brisingr , level 25 Ernie , level 25 Eld Jeirda level 14 Lenny , level 15 Caught Eld Jeirda . Grinding everyone to 30 before Flannery. Except Lenny. He's just a place holder for now, and I'm just holding him for Pickup right now.

Edoc'sil, you'll love your Golbat later on... It will make a great pick off poke against a lot of pokes due to it's high speed. Keep the move bite and also keep a flying move, bite will be great against psychics. Mine evolved into a Crobat @ lv. 24 and I honestly would be sad if it got killed. It's easy to raise and after lv. 20 it really becomes useful.

[color=olive]Here's an update. A little late for one, as I've already beaten my last Gym a while ago but I just didn't have a legit chance to post an update, so this one is a bit late. The rules I am using are on page 19 with extended rules on page 20. _________________________________________________________________________________________ Trainer Card ID No. 62608 Name Kaoru Badges 5 Money

Post subject:	Re: Nuzlocke Challenge
Okay, I'm gonna do this again, only to make it harder, I've got some extra rules that I'll be following. 1. Only allowed to keep the pokes that are in your party at the current time. So no storing in the boxes and if you white out, its game over. 2. Not allowed to buy any healing items 3. No running from any wild battles 4. Must defeat all the legendaries 5. Can't catch any from the Safari Zone Plus all the other normal rules. I'll be doing it again on Firered, not with Charizard this time, but with Blastiose, because I wanted a change.

Okay so I'm going to do this on PLATINUM now. We'll see how far I get. I'll update this post with my first update. Likely to be after beating Rawrk. I am a liar. Here's the first edition! I am posting it just before my fight with Roark, only because of the astonishing progress I've made. Ready? Let's go! The game is Platinum. Name: Zlad Badges: 0 Pokemon: Champ Lv13 Bashful Scratch Leer Ember Taunt Derp Lv7 Lax Tackle Growl --- --- Buddy Lv9 Brave Absorb Growth Water Sport --- Illinois Lv9 Bashful Tackle Growl Quick Attack Wing Attack Loose Lv5 Hardy Leech Life Supersonic Return --- Kidd Lv8 Jolly Low Kick Leer Focus Energy --- Fallen: None : D No bad news so far. Alright! The first interesting thing to happen to me was the death of a Shinx. I go to R202 and he's the first thing that appears! Score! He intimidates Champ's attack down, and I scratch him. Saws off like an eighth of his HP. So I hit again, and as you might have already guessed he rolls a critical and kills Shinx. No fair. Next update comes later! STAY TUNED.

Kaori, are you evolving your pokemon? I'm kind of confused when I'm looking at a Lv. 40 geodude that should be a graveler or a golem by now. ADDITION: some advice for you, lekoma and cadova will be very useful in the gym. You'll probably have some trouble with the leader's strongest pokemon (I'm trying not to ruin it for you, but if you know what your facing I'll just erase this addition).

I'm not evolving my PokeMon until I complete the challenge. I'm going through this with a same feel for the card game, only using basic stage PokeMon. The Gym? Meh, I'll be fine. Regardless of whatever PokeMon I came in with, hence why I have the level gap between Gyms. It's not the big ten it was in my last challenge, only because it was such a breeze that I dropped it to five. To LeoTheLion and InstantBacon, welcome back!!

Good luck with the no evolutions part, but you should be around Lv. 65 when you face Lance at the rate you're going. I raise my pokes around 4-5 levels between gyms, so I should be around the same as you when I get to Pryce. -My pokes averaged Lv. 12 against falkner (he was Lv. 11) -My pokes averaged Lv. 16 against bugsy (he was also Lv. 16) -My pokes averaged Lv. 19 against whitney (she was Lv. 18) -My pokes averaged Lv. 22 against morty (he also was Lv. 22) -My pokes averaged Lv. 28 against chuck (he was Lv. 30) -My pokes will average around Lv. 34 against Jasmine (she is Lv. 32)

I'm trying to catch a murkrow w/ super luck in my HG and I am having no luck so far. I noticed that a murkrow has about a 10% encounter rate in the Safari Zone and also has a 5% capture rate, WOOHOO MATHEMATICS!!! Update after I get my murkrow.

-------------------------- VS Admin Mars! Budew's in my lead and she sends out a Zubat! So Buddy Stun Spores real quick... but not after Zubat gets in a Wing Attack and knocks Buddy down to a clase-call 3 HP! So I switch out to Illinois while Zubat is derping. Then Illinois spams Double Team in-between PATHETIC!!! Wing Attacks and derps. After multiplying himself by over 9000, Illi sweeps Zubat out of the ring. The appropriately-named Skuntank is sent out. Illi Endeavors and brings Skuntank to about half. Meanwhile, Skuntank is doing it wrong. More Wing Attacks from the bird and victory is reached! Easy win! Illinois achieves lv23. --------------------------

Post subject:	Re: Nuzlocke Challenge
caught my murkrow. Thank you, Karma. I sat in front my DS celebrating the fact that I beat some pretty big odds to get a super luck murkrow let alone catch one. I went back to the pokecenter and checked its stats to find out the little bugger sent pkrs on top of that! That must've been a one in 500 shot easily (5% capture rate with probably a les than 25% chance of getting super luck on top of that, with the odds of getting an infected poke on top of that 25% chance!)

Congratulations on capturing your Super Luck Murkrow. Especially since it has pokerus. That's such a beautiful find.

Im lookin for a brave nature one so when I do the power trick its DEF doesnt go down into the hole too much. And doyou think I can breed a brave nature shuckle or catch a brave natured ditto..NOOOO... (goes onto rant) (might just try to get good IV's in attack and then breed my shuckle with a relaxed nature ditto). Anyways no change to my challenge in fired red. Still just doin some grinding. Nothing big to report yet.

GofD, the only advice I can give you with your shuckle is give it Stone Edge, 100 BP with a 230 base attack and STAB will be deadly... Time for my update: Progress: -I steamrollerpwnd Jasmine, her magnemite had nothing on Cpt. Happy and Steelix was apparently lacking Iron Tail, for my six badge. -Caught a super luck Murkrow with PKRS before facing Jasmine at Lv. 15 -currently working around the lake of rage to get those items and lots of exp. _____________________________ Name (poke)-Lvl/PKRS Ability Nature HP/ATK/DEF/SpA/SpD/SPD moves ------------------------------- Fawkes -Lv. 20/ PKRS Ab: Super Luck Nature: Brave 55/46/24/43/21/38 Wing Attack\|Pursuit\|Astonish\|Haze Camonen -Lv. 30/ PKRS Ab: Rock Head Nature: Docile 82/71/79/28/48/29 Rock Throw\|Low Kick\|Faint Attack\|Block Static -Lv. 30/ PKRS Ab: Static Nature: Docile 102/59/51/78/65/43 Charge\|Thundershock\|ThunderPunch\|Cotton Spore Screech -Lv. 32/ PKRS Ab: Inner Focus Nature: Jolly 102/72/59/53/68/107 Flare -Lv. 33/ PKRS Ab: Blaze Nature: Bold 84/50/59/66/54/69 Flame Wheel\|Ember\|Swift\|Defense Curl Cpt.Happy -Lv. 33/ PKRS Ab: Water Absorb Nature: Rash 112/68/66/64/46/43 Surf\|Mud Bomb\|Amnesia\|Headbutt Slightly improved, still having trouble with all the colors...

Fatality number one is fatal! Name: Zlad Badges: 2 Pokemon: Champ Lv26 Bashful Mach Punch Leer Flame Wheel Taunt Derp Lv8 Lax Tackle Growl Rock Smash --- Illinois Lv27 Bashful Endeavor Double Team Quick Attack Wing Attack Kidd Lv24 Jolly Low Kick Seuismic Toss Focus Energy Karate Chop Weabu Lv12 Gentle Pursuit Water Sport (Like Swimming or Water Polo!) Water Gun Quick Attack Pete Lv1 Serious Growl Charm --- --- Fallen: Buddy Lv23 Brave -Died by a critical-hit Psybeam from Mismagius at the Ghost Gym. Avenged by Illinois. Box: Snookie Lv13 Scav Lv8 Picket Lv13 Loose Lv5 Hardy Neil Lv14 So I grinded a lot and decided to take on the Ghost Gym of Hearthome. I did some training in there but had a little bit of trouble when faced with a certain trainer's Misdreavus. Three of my four main Pokemon are weaking to Psychic and Flying, which is a bit of a problem. Buddy is killed by a critical hit super-effective Psybeam. D: So, following our team's traumatic first loss, I'm in the process of grinding Weabu and hopefully Pete to full fighting potential. Buddy, you will be missed, but you should've evolved faster you emo.

That would've given it enough happiness to evolve. Though, I admit I share the pain of your loss. I was hoping to see Buddy accompany you throughout your adventure.

How did I make it? Badge 3 get! Name: Zlad Badges: 3 Pokemon: Champ Lv26 Bashful Mach Punch Leer Flame Wheel Taunt Derp Lv8 Lax Tackle Growl Rock Smash --- Illinois Lv29 Bashful Endeavor Double Team Quick Attack Wing Attack Kidd Lv24 Jolly Low Kick Seuismic Toss Focus Energy Karate Chop Weabu Lv24 Gentle Pursuit Aqua Jet Water Gun Quick Attack Pete Lv1 Serious Growl Charm --- --- Fallen: Buddy Lv23 -Died by a critical-hit Psybeam from Mismagius at the Ghost Gym. Avenged by Illinois. Box: Snookie Lv13 Scav Lv8 Picket Lv13 Loose Lv5 Hardy Neil Lv14 Zuzan Lv19 After painfully tedious grinding, I got Weabu up to Level 24! Nobody else levelled, though. So I decided to stop waiting and grinding and just go for it with Fantina. It's a shame I didn't record it while battling, because it was such a great battle. Basically, I had Weabu out because it has Pursuit. Her first out was Duskull, who apparently has some pretty good Defense. Falling victim to this (as well as burning), I switched out to Illinois. So I did the usual by spamming Double Team and whatnot. Long story short, I kicked her bung. So I just got out of that. Cool. Barely made it out. ONWARDS! EDIT: -------------------------------- VS Maylene I send out Illinois as my lead, and she brings out her Meditite. I skip the pleasantries and OHKO Medi with Aerial Ace. She sends out Machoke next. Ace, Focus Energy, Ace. Dead. Net out for her is Lucario, so I switch out to Champ. He Force Palms Champ down below half HP and Champ Flame Wheels him to about 1/3 HP. So the next turn I decide to be risky and use Mach Punch. Aaaaand... I win! Illinois evolves into Staraptor, happy day! --------------------------------

I'm not going to give a full update - only a partiel one. There have been notable casualties, including Weabu, the Lv31 Floatzel, who fell victim to critical grass from a Leafeon. At this point, my party consists of: Champ, Lv34 Snooki, Lv32 Kidd, Lv30 Illinois, Lv36 Neil, Lv14 Zuzan, Lv19 As you can see, I've mostly been grinding. I'll probably try to grind everyone up to 36 or to evolution, whichever happens later. Then I'm challenging Wake. Wish me luck! RIP Weabu, you were a great friend.
