Crit by seviper's Aqua tail, we were gonna go all the way Phanny..

I'm at Nimbasa with only a Dewott and a Darumaka(his ability is Hustle) with me, a fucking Herdier killed almost everyone on my team after getting +3 work up. How fucked I am? I'm thinking about a strategy to beat Elesa, but the only thing I've thought so far is using Eviolite+Revenge on Dewott. I don't think that will be enough, though.

Is this BW or BW2? Also, Hustle is a pretty good ability. Get that tiny nigga Fire Punch and obliterate.

>>28482457
It's BW2. The problem with Hustle is the fact that the pokemon's accuracy is lowered by 20%.

After taking on Route 13-15, CINNAMNRLL the Kadabra is now Lv39 with Psychic, Psybeam, Thief, and Reflect. I've never mentioned this before, nor have I checked for myself, but he has a Rash Nature, which makes him much stronger, yet a little more susceptible to what can endanger him.

The rest of the team is around Lv29-33 so I'm going to continue training West of Celadon/Fuchsia City, then take on Koga once I feel ready!

Yeah I got quite lucky with some of my preparations, found an Exeggcute by headbutting trees in Cherrygrove and found an Old Amber while rock smashing in the Ruins of Alph. The rest were just sitting in the box, I have no idea why I didn't think to grind out Ekans for the first round.

>>28484409
I haven't lost anyone from self-destruct yet but my Ecruteak find was a Pineco that chose to kill itself rather than join my team.

I think they all know self destruct so they're extremely hard to catch/do anything about.

my encounter on route 47 was a fucking ditto and i didn't even manage to catch it, sigh. No new encounter till the route before victory road, i suppose.

finally, a question: is fighting the kimono girls mandatory before heading for victory road? I do want to fight them sometime of course cuz killing legendaries is fun, but the prospect of a 5 (or 7?) trainer gauntlet without inbetween healing, all of whom have good mons with (probably) good movesets is kinda scary, especially for a team that is lacking on the resistance department.

Caught a Pineco in Ecruteak!

Mostly because I saw >>28485321 mention you could find them there. I skipped a few Hoothoots since I had already caught one (and it died...) in the first route of the game.

It's a male so I'm extremely happy about it, and it knows BUG BITE, something Pineco didn't in Gen 2 (so I'm even happier).

>>28487601

I have like a sixth sense for these kind of things, one time in FRO I switched to my Breloom when fighting a Pineco, and it self-destructed. It would have killed my other Pokémon if I had not switched.

I push my luck sometimes, though. The Drowzees before Goldenrod have almost killed my Zubat (now Golbat) twice, and my Bellsprout (now Weepinbell) once with critical Confusions.

>Ghastly, come back!
>Rattata used Pursuit!

I... I didn't know.

>>28488516
>you didnt knew about pursuit

How?

Also fuck pursuit. It's useless for the player. It's a minor annoyance in normal playthroughs. It's fucking hellish bullshit in Nuzlockes

>>28488683
it's a great move competitively

>>28488683

I had no idea Rattata knew Pursuit. I knew Zubat had Bite (since I own a Golbat), but it's been so long since I lost my Rattata that I forgot he knew that move.

Otherwise I would have sticked to the route south of Ecruteak to train Ghastly. :(

Now I'm raising up a Metapod to level 25, she's a Butterfree already.

Okay

- Lv 17 Butterfree: Confusion, Psybeam (in the future), Stun Spore
- Lv 25 Croconaw: Bite, Scary Face
- Lv 25 Golbat: Bite, Confuse Ray
- Lv 25 Stantler: Astonish, Confuse Ray

When Buttefree hits 25, it's time to face Morty. Butterfree is fairly fast, so is Stantler. I'm thinking of going this way:

1st - Stantler: he will take care of all Pokémon up to Gengar using Astonish. His job is to Confuse Ray Gengar.
2nd - Buttefree: her job is to paralyze Gengar.
3rd - Golbat: his job is to finish Gengar.
4th - Croconaw: backup in case things get ugly for Golbat.

Fight started with Stantler, alright. Astonish wasn't enough to OHKO Ghastly, and it used Spite. Another Astonish and he was gone.

Then came Haunter. Astonish, Haunter attacks. I'm about to kill it when Morty uses a Hyper Potion. Then it takes Astonish two more times to finish it.

Now comes Gengar. It's faster than Stantler it turns out, and uses Mean Look. So much for confusing him and switching Pokémon... I use Confuse Ray, and OF COURSE he always manages to land Hypnosis on me, bypassing the 50% chance of hitting itself and the 40% chance of missing Hypnosis.

Gengar did this two or three times (I don't even remember now). This means that it landed Hypnosis right when it needed to land (that is, when Stantler woke up). A 30% chance to land Hypnosis at the right time, and he did it THREE CONSECUTIVE TIMES.

Astonish just wasn't enough to quickly take him out, and the fucker even had a Berry on him. I ended up using a Hyper Potion (against my no items rule) only because Morty had done it earlier with his Haunter (and because of the bullshit odds he was pulling with Hypnosis). Luckily Gengar got into a bad streak of hitting himself, allowing Stantler to Astonish him to death.

When Haunter came in, I just switched to Butterfree and Psybeamed it to death.

Benched Skipper for Sammy the Sneasel, I like Quagsire but I've used him a lot in the past and in all honesty Shelby's been putting in some serious work, and was only lagging behind Skipper in physical defense.

Next it looks like I have to face the Snowbelle Gym. I gave Hikaru the Rare candies I found on the way up because I dare not use him anywhere here. I also think the climax of the main story is approaching so I need a plan to deal with that. IIRC Giratina is primarily a physical attacker, so I think I can have Hikaru SD and just Night Slash him to death.

Technically the rule is only for "normal" battles, and since Morty had already used a Hyper Potion, it felt fair.

It's not like I'm going to spam Full Restores against Gym Leaders, though.

>>28501285

I play with no turbo at all, DeSmuMe and VBALink. And the few times I turboed grinding in VBALink felt so unsatisfactory.

I love getting to the end of a properly, legitimately-done training session as opposed to just turboing my way through 30 minutes of training to get it done in 4.

Fuck me. Just when I thought I might at least be able to get to the climax of the main story or even the E4 without any more casualties. I guess Skipper's back on the team.

Twice I have fought Cyrus, and twice has he taken from me. It's personal now, retribution is coming and it will not be pleasant.

Also I guess Skipper's back on the team then. I forget when or if Sneasel actually learns any decent moves in Gen IV. In any case I must press onward. To the summit of Mt. Coronet!

343KB, 1072x603px

Updates:
We lost Red Star the Dragonite on the route above Vermillion. A trainer's slaking used counter and OHKO'd Red Star from full health, which was really frustrating because i like extremespeed but oh well.
Slapped an exp share on Sarasim the Lotad and went to Brock's, OHKO'd everything on his team with Trident's banded EQ. Onix lived with a sash but what the fuck was Onix going to do?
Rival in Mt. Moon had some close calls (and I really have nothing for Kingdra) but I lucked out that he sent out Kingdra last so we had Saico-Tek take it out with Perish Song and switching.
Misty was a challenge. I could've definitely avoided the losses had I switched out Sarasim from Lanturn. Discharge did 40% of her health (on top of chip damage before that) and paralyzed leaving sarasim useless (until she took out Misty's vaporeon). I got a switch off with perish song after taking a LOT of damage but Kitty, who was badly poisoned and had already taken ice beams, couldn't take out Starmie with a +2 strength, resulting in her demise as she took a thunderbolt to the face. Drapion would've been OHKO'd by Hydro Pump had I not attached focus sash, and took out Starmie with night slash, but then died to vaporeon to net a safe switch for Sarasim to KO with specs energy ball.

Booster Gold the Electabuzz is looking good though (but it's a -atk nature so I think he's going to be mixed). Fearow is an HM slave until I can get that sweet Snorlax. I feel weird about putting another Gyarados on the team right after Kitty died, but maybe I'll put the red one in later, because the synergy with swampert was really incredible.

Also I started running out of Teen Titans names so now it's just any DC characters.

>start FireRed run

On the sea going from Olivine to Cyanwood

>catch Tentacool
>change water area
>have to catch a Tentacruel due to dupes clause working only if I already have that Pokémon recorded in the Pokédex

Fuck, why did GF think it was a good thing to make the Johto water Pokémon so hard to find? If I hadn't fuck up at Mt. Mortar, I would have had already:

- Goldeen (outside Mt. Mortar)
- Seaking (lost inside Mt. Mortar)
- Magikarp (fished in Olivine)
- Tentacool (water south of Olivine)
- Tentacruel (water near those islands in the water)

STAN THE MAN STAN THE MAN STAN THE MAN

I got into a fight with Eusine in Cyanwood. I had Stantler as my first Pokémon.

- Stantler used Astonish against Drowzee, making it flinch. I used Astonish a second time. Drowzee disabled Astonish. I killed it with Stomp.
- Electrode came next. It used Screech on Stantler, and I used Stomp. Electrode's Static paralyzed Stantler. I was thinking it would self-destruct, but I had no Pokémon to take the attack, so I went ahead with Take Down. Electrode luckily used Thunder, and Stantler managed to overcome paralysis and bring it down.
- Then came Haunter. For who knows what reason I didn't switch Stantler, and Haunter used Mean Look. Here's where things get interesting:
- Stantler uses Confuse Ray. Astonish is still disabled. Haunter attacks itself; I use Stomp (since there was nothing I could do) and miss. Astonish is no longer disabled. Haunter attacks himself again, and THEN Stan the Man uses Astonish to critically hit Haunter and kill it.

I was almost certain I would lose Stantler right there.

Why can't I get the cheats to work on Desmume for Blaze Black?

Wasn't able to play much yesterday, had to pull a friend out of a sp00ky group.

I managed to not wipe to Misty, and that was the biggest upcoming hurdle I was worried about! She even got a crit Swift in, but it didn't help her. I decided to run with Reimi and Squirtle. Battle went like this:

> Reimi vs Staryu, Bullet Seed Hell KOs it
> Reimi vs Starmie, got off Stun Spore, got hit hard, switched to Squirtle
> Squirtle vs Starmie, Crit Swift hits, but manage to eventually kill Starmie with Bite after Misty healed and used Recover a few times.

Went pretty well, but could have gone bad with one wrong move considering both of my mons were in yellow. Moving on to later routes next, probably not going to switch my team out until a death, cause it's adorable that they're a girl squad minus Squirtle.

>Peckish the Pidgeot, new addition to the team from the route just before Olivine. When I caught him he came with feather dance and pluck so he was a really great choice for this fight. Swapped him out for Aerodactyl who died while fighting a Hitmontop that the gym trainers were using
>Olivia the Sudowoodo, same one as before, good poke.
>Cheshire the Haunter, same one as before, taught phychic thanks to the new tm found in ruins of alph when you have surf. Good poke.
>Tails the Floatzel, new addition. Thankfully no one died, but Lairon wasn't best suited for a fight against fighting types so I swapped him out for this fight.
>Face Palm the Exeggutor, same as before, good poke. Really good actually.
>Swagsire the Quagsire, new addition, best poke.

as an aside does anyone know where to get an orb to evolve haunter? i know you get one when you trade but i don't know what the new trades are, currently can't do any of the ones available, are there any in shops/lying around?

As soon as my newly evolved Crobat reached lvl 31, I'm tackling the Cianwood gym.

My team against Chuck:

1st - Crobat: he has a much better speed than Butterfree, a much better attack and a good mix of Physical/Special thanks to Wing Attack and Air Cutter. He has Confuse Ray as well in case things get ugly.
2nd - Butterfree: hopefully I won't have to use him.

Then we used Confuse Ray on Poliwrath, who retaliated with Surf. We used Wing Attack again and Poliwrath used Surf again. We followed with Air Cutter, and Poliwrath hurt itself, triggering his berry. Another Wing Attack, and Poliwrath used Surf again. Luckily we managed to land a Wing Attack just above Chuck's Hyper Potion threshold, and won the badge.

Is there any way to get Kalos mons with transparent backgrounds, theyre not in the pastebin

Since when is Eusine hard?

Does anyone else find romhacks less interesting to nuzlocke than vanilla games? There's such a high turnover of pokemon that it's hard to get attached to any of them. Do I just suck?

I'm bored and I want to do a nuzlocke. Should I play SoulSilver or Black 2?

>>28524058
black 2

more mon variety, harder difficulty, just a better time overall.

i wish drayano would have fixed HG/SS Victory Road by making it an actual Victory Road, sigh

>>28524153
the two routes before count

>>28523984

Only because

a) I'm constantly reminded it is a hack.
b) They are so ridiculously hard to Nuzlocke it feels boring after a while.

I feel like a legitimate Pokémon Master in the works in my current HeartGold run.

Playing my first NL ever on HG cart. Pretty fun so far, very good way to reset my perfect EV/IV-autism I've accumulated over the years.

This is my current Team, grinding my newcomers for Morty right now. Got some insanenely lucky catches around Ecruteak: Growlithe on route 34, Magmar in the tower, and Tauros on route 35.
(Can't really decide between Magmar and Growlithe right now. I love Growlithe, would stick with it for now, if Firestone wouldn't be so painful to get. How realistic is getting a Firestone in Johto before E4, any experience?)

Major losses so far have been: Soon the Butterfree, killed by the Lum Berry of Whitneys Miltank and, which was really painful, Heem the lvl 18 Slowpoke killed by a wild Raticates Pursuit while switching out.

Also Geodude is a machine, almost feels like easymode for the first three gyms, it absolutely destroys Scizor and Miltank.

Alright so lots of progress.

Went all the way back to Rowan's place to advance the plot and magically dissolve the blackout. Took the opportunity to explore the routes to the south and caught Vanessa theTentacool, Amelia the Wingull (a Flyer at long last!) and the return of VerdeMasque the Roselia. After that, went to Sunyshore City, where Hikaru made short work of Volkner and his gym. Had a surprise encounter with Jasmine (I forgot she appeared in this gen) and Barry, who equally surprisingly didn't want to battle.

>Goals moving forward
Clear out Victory Road.
Grind the team up for the E4
Once through with those go get some of these terrible HM moves off of my team and give them better movesets, also for the E4.


On a related note, what's a fair level to enter the Sinnoh E4 anons? I know Cynthia has team members in the high 50's and low 60s, but other E4 members have much lower ones.

Also, this is the team rn, but I did catch a Houndoom on Route 26 and I feel like it might be quite a solid fit on my team. Should I put it on the team and who should leave the team if I do?

Fantina was more of a challange than I thought, but you guys were right about Sableye. Good addition to the team.

Banette tried to use her berry to move first nd use destiny bond on Batty, only it failed ue to confusion. Sadly that was harsher in hindsight, because even though Scyther could take another Shadow Ball, it hit itself in confusion and died. Infernape avenged him
Sableye knocked Mismagius and Dusclops off the field. Golduck took care of Dusclops and Graveler took care of Drifblim.

Gengar was annoying with his powerful shadowball, but Crobat took it out with a crit Bite.

Basically a gym in which I actually used all six members. Rival didn't put up much of a fight and with Sableye replacing Scyther and Mr. Mime coming back from the box. I will stop at Solacean Town for today.

> Wipe to gym leader.
> Out of curiosity, reload and play a bit better.
> Win with only one loss.

This has happened to me on three different runs.
Granted, I didn't get crit 3 times on the second try here, but there were general improvements that could have saved the run.
Rip. Almost got carried by a dunsparce.

So far in this run I've been using shift battle mode w/ items in battle and all since SG is hard enough as it is, but for the E4/Champion I'm gonna roll for a ruleset to spice things up a lil (level cap will always be +2 for Starman, he's my ace, also the level cap indicates the level my mons will be before I challenge the E4)

1: shift, no items in battle, level cap 56
2: shift, no items in battle, level cap 58
3: shift, items in battle, level cap 56
4: shift, items in battle, level cap 58
5: set, no items in battle, level cap 56
6: set, no items in battle, level cap 58
7: set, items in battle, level cap 56
8: set, items in battle, level cap 58
9: number before the 9 decides general ruleset + Starman has to be the one to take down every E4's ace (also Lance's)
0: first reply decides which ruleset I pick, can also be a ruleset you come up with of your own as long as I deem it feasible

And the aftermath. Thought Marge could OHKO with Force Palm, or at least survive a Bulldoze if needed and still outspeed. She couldn't. Thought MrBurns could outspeed and finish with Flame Burst, he was too slow. Agnes beat Sandslash, but was too slow to even hit Excadrill after taking a Bulldoze from Sandslash to set up Rain Dance. Maude ended up cleaning up with Work Up and Attract.

Need to rebuild after this, and my box has 3 grass types and a Cincicco, without Skill Link. I'm sure Skyla will be doable.

>>28533443
Sounds too casual for my tastes, even for a blind run, but whatever float your boats. It's not the worst casual nuzlocke ruleset i've seen by a long margin so nothing bad to note about it or anything

The starter one sounds interesting to keep the nuzlocke going and i might try it sometime, but i'm more fond of just restarting the game as it puts me more on the edge and makes me think more carefully about my actions/grieve my failures harder

>>28533654
Which parts do you think are the most casual? I'm considering changing them as I'm used to less merciful rules.

>>28533835
>If all other pokémon faint, the starter may be used again, so that the Nuzlocke can continue
>Gift pokémon do not count as the pokémon for that route unless they are given prior to the first unique encounter
>Gym battles are used as checkpoints. If the Nuzlocke would be lost per the blackout clause, we may restart at the last gym instead, and only for that reason.

>>28533443
get rid of the retry clause, git gud at catching

losing your starter is a real risk of any nuzlocke, your narrative is likelier to suck

use any kind of pokeball you want who cares

why stop yourself from a rotating team? keeps good reserves at a closer level

>>28533923
Thanks for the advice.

The rule about restocking with your starter sounds cool, but couldn't you then go and solo the game with it? If it's the only pokemon you have you're invincible.

Here's, well, not the sole survivor of this battle, for Konrad managed to persevere as well, but yeah, I had to endure heavy losses. Here's how it went down:

>lead with Starman, Lance leads with Gyarados instead of one of his Dragonite like I kinda expected
>go into Danger, Charti Berry + Intimidate allows me to tank the incoming Stone Edge very well
>get a DD up as he hits another Stone Edge
>use Strength, get THIS FUCKING CLOSE to killing, but alas
>his Stone Edge hits again, bye-bye Danger :( (speaking of which, I considered using Stone Edge instead of Strength on Danger, but the miss chance made me feel very uncomfortable, guess Lance begs to differ though)
>Starman comes in, Lance Full Restores but alas, two Scarf Ice Beams do the trick
>Aerodactyl comes in, I expect it to have some good IVs and EVs so I don't risk being slower, instead going into Konrad who dodges a Stone Edge and OHKOs with Banded Strength, Aerodactyl gets a Torment off tho
>sly dog Lance now sends in his Charizard as I am prevented from using Strength for an OHKO, decide Nadia might be able to do something
>Zard uses Swords Dance on my switch, which already makes me uncomfortable, but then whips out the Focus Blast, outspeeds and OHKOs Nadia, I barely knew ya ;_;
>Dolce Vita, equipped with a Focus Sash handily saved for a moment like this, survives a +2 Flare Blitz, retaliates with a Specs Psychic to get Zard into range of Starman's Ice Beam, but must sadly succumb to another Flare Blitz
>Starman comes back in and takes his revenge on his fallen teammates by completely annihilating the rest of Lance's team

rip fallen friends, you fought well. I feel like had I played around Gyarados more carefully instead of hoping for the OHKO I might have prevented a lot of these deaths (for one, keeping Danger alive would have made Chairzard that much easier to deal with), so I feel very responsible for this shit, but alas, it can't be helped.

http://pastebin.com/VAtHUCt9 Here are the updated rules after talks with my partner. My partner was adamant about having gym checkpoints and the starter rule, but I got rid of the ability to use gift 'mon; being able to re-try catches; and being able to overlevel.

sadly not, they were included for BB/VW but Dray didn't bother doing that this time around I guess
