Thanks KingErick for showing me how to make the pokemon sprites.

I just started Nuzlocke in Ruby, and here is my team so far:

{torchic} Brandon Lvl 9
scratch
growl
focus energy

{seedot} Leafinator Lvl 6
bide

{zigzagoon} Ziggy Lvl 5
tackle
growl
tail whip

{ralts} Psycho lvl 4
growl

as you can see, i am not very creative with my names....
ah well.
I don't know if i am lucky, or unlucky.
I caught a level four {zigzagoon} then a {wingull} and forgot to nickname the {wingull} so i shut my gameboy off, and then i switched in on again and lost my wingull and zigzagoon as well! then when i went to the next route, the first pokemon i found was a ralts. it's pretty random.

All that happened of importance:
i got my starter.
I beat my rival the first time.

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge

Been a while, nothing much has happened on my front really. Grinded up to lvl 40 then hit Pastoria City's gym. Lil'Foot OHKO the lot of them, no surprise there really. Doing some more grinding before I hit Celestic Town. Hoping for lvl 50 before the next gym, although that will mean Kazza stops listening to me...again.

Currently looking for a fifth member to join the party. Haven't really got an overriding weakness in my team at the moment but Ice is definitely the most prominent issue I'll need to address. Thinking Magnezone or Magmortar. Although I'm not to sure on the availability of a Magnemite/Magby/Magmar.

Team...

Lvl 43 {torterra} Lil'Foot
Lvl 42 {staraptor} Jessie
Lvl 42 {floatzel} Buoy
Lvl 48 {alakazam} Kazza (My little brother needed some help going through the elite 4 on SS, so I leant him my Kazza, I put an Everstone on it, he took it off before sending it back. On the plus side I gained some Choice Specs)
Lvl 16 {bibarel} Bucko

Box...
Cba to look, the same but with a big haul from the Safari Zone aswell. First catch in there was a Wooper, so thats the only one I'll use if needed.

Dead...
{onix} Poor Severus

I helped wally catch his first pokemon, then went into the next route hoping to find a taillow. Instead, i found Zazu. {wingull}
So i was basically just grinding a bit more.... Zazu leveled up pretty quickly.

So here's my team now:

{torchic} Brandon lvl 9
scratch
growl
focus energy

{seedot} Leafinator lvl 7
bide
harden
growth

{zigzagoon} Ziggy lvl 7
tackle

tail whip

{wingull} Zazu lvl 7

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge

LOL @ Kaori... I only used about 15 quick balls to get Raikou. Entei however, not even saying anything other than it's been asleep for the past 5 encounters... Suicune will be the real pain to catch, since at the rate you're going you'll be double it's level. I actually believe you can take on red at this point with the use of items...

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge

Right, been busy over the last few days. Decided level 45 was more than adequate for the Hearthome Gym, was right. Buoy OHKO'd all of Fantina's Pokemon with Crunch.

Did some research into what pokemon were going to be available too me, noticed I could get a Magnemite, but not unless they were swarming at Fuego Ironworks. So decided it wouldn't make a difference if I imported over a Magnemite Egg. In the last 3 days I've been pumping up Magnemite to the extent that he is now a Magnezone and also the joint highest lvl member of my party. Now I know it wasn't really in the spirit of the Nuzlocke challenge, but at the end of the day the challenege is supposed to get you to use new pokemon, which I was yet to do. So meh, suck it.

Just been grinding up on Route 218, caught myself a Lvl 37 Pelliper. Was lucky seeing that thing first I suppose, haven't seen one since. Heading off to Iron Island to lvl up Lil'Foot and Buoy to lvl 50 before the next gym.

Team...

Lvl 50 {magnezone} Grid Iron
Timid Nature
- Discharge
- Mirror Shot
- Magnet Rise
- Thunder Wave

Lvl 50 {alakazam} Kazza
Quiet Nature
- Psychic
- Recover

- HP Ice

Lvl 50 {staraptor} Jessie
Gentle Nature
- Aerial Ace
- Fly
- Defog
- Close Combat

Lvl 46 {torterra} Lil'Foot
Careful Nature
- Leech Seed

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge

My only pokemon games are Sapphire, Gold, and Crystal, and I really want to try this out. I was planning on selling gold and crystal soon, and I'm in the middle of sapphire, so I guess I'm going oldschool with crystal.

I'm going to have no restrictions on purchases or uses of items except no status healers. And I'm not starting the catching restrictions until I actually get my first pokeball.

I'm thinking I'll start with totodile for an easier early game.

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge

Finally I will be getting back to HeartGold. After literally steamrolling my way through Volkner I started making my way through Victory Road. Getting back to Volker, Garchomp sweep lol. I grinded the team up past Lv. 58 (Watkin hit 60) and decided to faceoff against my rival. Why was he only Lv. 50 max? I quickly ran through the Elite Four in about 35 minutes and thought Cynthia would be an actual challenge. Was I wrong, my garchomp outsped her Garchomp while it was Lv 57, and her's was Lv. 62. -_-. I could've just swept her with Watkin due to just how piss poor her team was. I guess I'll trade some of my pokes over, specifically the ones that evolve by trade.

HeartGold update next week and I'll hint at the fact I'm considering making a comic on my nuzlocke runs (all of them,and keeping them as a storyline, too)

Author:  Mutant_Mewtwo [ Tue Feb 15, 2011 4:23 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge

Right...alot has happened since a last updated, but not much to say really.

Lil'Foot OHKO'd everything in the Electric Gym. Although I'm not to sure how {octillery} classes as an Electrice type.

I spend the best part of 20 hours grinding in Victory Road, all pokemon up to lvl 80 before fighting my rival. Fight essentially went...

Jessie VS {staraptor}
Jessie Used Return OHKO
Jessie VS {heracross} (I thought the AI was supposed to try find good type match ups?)
Jessie used Fly OHKO
Jessie VS {infernape} (And again)
Jessie Used Fly OHKO
Jessie VS {roserade} (-_-)
Jessie Used Fly OHKO
Jessie VS {floatzel}
Grid Iron VS {floatzel}
Floatzel Used Ice Fang (Not Very Effective)
Grid Iron Used Thunder Bolt OHKO
Grid Iron VS {snorlax}
Grid Iron used Thunder Bolt OHKO

And essentially, the hole of the elite 4 followed the same suit.

Jessie took out the bug man with 5 Fly's and no damage, although I did get a critical on {drapion} so I might of got lucky there.

Lil'Foot took out all of the ground type gym, Cursed up 3 times to begin with to ensure OHKO's used Leech Seed on everything afew times. Finished the fight with around 15 HP gone.

Buoy took out the Fire Gym leader with no real issues. Aftermath off of that Driftblim was annoying though. So I finished that one with Buoy on 75% Health.

Used Jessie for the Psychic type Gym Leader. OHKO'd all of her pokemon using a Mixture of Fly, Return and Close Combat.

Cynthia, although not doing much damage to my team was rather annoying to fight. Unlike my rival she was actually quite good at lining up good type match up's for herself. Although, she did generally leave her pokemon in for 1 turn after I had switched to a good match up, which ultimately made it rather easy. The battle went like...

Grid Iron vs {spiritomb}
Grid Iron used Thunder Bolt (around 60% damage)
Spiritomb Used Dark Pulse (Not Very effective, around 5% Damage)
-
Grid Iron vs {gastrodon}
Grid Iron Used Thunder Bolt (No Damage)
-
Grid Iron used Magnet Rise
Gastrodon used Earthquake (No Damage)
-
Grid Iron used Mirror Shot (Miss)
Gastrodon used Stone Edge (Not Very Effective, around 5% Damage)
-
Lil'Foot Vs {gastrodon}
Gastrodon used Stone Edge (Not Very effective, around 10% damage)
-
Lil'Foot Used Razor Leaf OHKO
Lil'Foot vs {garchomp}
-
Buoy vs {garchomp}
Garchomp used Dragon Rush (Around 25% Health Remaining)
-
Buoy used Ice Beam OHKO
Buoy vs {roserade}
-
Jessie vs {roserade}
Roserade used Energy Ball (Not very effective, around 15% Damage)
-
Jessie used Fly OHKO
Jessie vs {lucario}
-
Jessie used Fly OHKO
Jessie vs {spiritomb}
-
Grid Iron vs {spiritomb}
Spiritomb used Dark Pulse (Not Very effective, Around 5% damage)
-
Grid Iron used Thunder Bolt (Spiritomb Faints)
Grid Iron vs {milotic}
-
Grid Iron used Thunder Bolt (Super effective, around 90% damage)
Milotic used Aqua Ring
-
Grid Iron used Thunder Bolt (Milotic Faints)

So, I finished the Elite 4 with...

Lil'Foot {torterra} Lvl 80 (Approx 88% Health Remaining)
- Curse
- Earthquake
- Razor leaf
- Leech Seed

Buoy {floatzel} Lvl 80 (Approx 20% Health Remaining)
- Ice Beam
- Surf
- Waterfall
- Crunch

Jessie {staraptor} Lvl 81 (Approx 85% Health Remaining)
- Fly
- Return
- Close Combat
- Defog

Grid Iron {magnezone} Lvl 81 (Approx 90% Health Remaining)
- Magnet Rise
- Thunder Bolt
- Mirror Shot
- Thunder Wave

Kazza {alakazam} Lvl 80 (100% Health Remaining)
- Calm mind
- Recover
- Psychic
- Shadow Ball

Puff {palkia} Lvl 80 (100% Health Remaining)
- Earth Power
- Aura Sphere
- Spacial Rend
- Water Pulse

AND I HAZ WON DE NUZLOCKE CHALLENGE!

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge

Turns out my crystal had a dead battery so I started it up on gold, but I'm just bored of those games, so I'm waiting until I finish Sapphire and then restarting Sapphire to do Nuzlocke. I'm probably going to start with Treecko because I am doing my current play through with Mudkip, and I can catch a fire type easily in the fiery path.

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge

Here's my yellow so far.

{bulbasaur} Lilly lvl 15 I just got Lilly in Cerulean. I kept running back there during my Nugget bridge battles to see if Pikachu was happy enough yet. Honestly, I've used a Venusaur before in yellow. I wouldn't really mind if Lilly died and I picked up an Exeggutor or something, but I want to keep her around for Misty. I bet owning Misty will allow me to forgive her for Zevon's death.

{charmander} Burgon lvl 15 Just got him up on route 25. Pretty similar to above. Wouldn't mind grabbing an Arcanine or Ninetales.

{butterfree} Poe lvl 16 I've had Poe for a while, and when I first caught him as a metapod he some good jokes in the comic I'm writing. I'm not expecting much more from him than a sad death, it's doubtful he'll go far.

{nidorino} Rex lvl 16 Got Rex on route 22. I'm evolving him right after I beat Misty. Don't want his ground side getting him killed if I evolved him now and ended up having to use him. Anyway, right after Misty he's getting a moon stone and a dig TM. He'll own Surge. If he dies I will be very sad.

{pidgey} Madge lvl 16 My first catch, and since I got this name idea from my favorite book, The Hunger Games, Madge is pretty special. I don't want her dying. Plus she's close to evolving. :D

{pikachu} Piru lvl 16 My starter. Eh, he's pretty cool.

Dead:
{mankey} Baconator was killed at the nugget bridge. I had just picked him up on route 4, so my first loss wasn't a very significant one.

{zubat} Zevon was also killed at the nugget bridge, I got him at Mount Moon. It was quite sad, because I had went into mount moon to grab him and then ran around outside grinding for while, so I actually had Zevon for a while, and I lost him to save Lilly. He stalled just long enough for the already in place leech side to defeat my opponent. I was looking forward to playing with a Golbat. Oh well, maybe dark cave or victory road.

-----

I like playing Yellow because since there are no genders I just specify what gender I WANT each of my pokemon to be. Fun stuff.
