I'm currently experiencing a conundrum, /vp/bros. I'm not very far into the game, and I've already noticed that "areas" are not as solidly defined in this new release as they had been in previous games.
Catching something on Route 1 was a given, but then upon heading to the Pokemon Lab the map calls the area "Route 1 Hau'oli Outskirts". Is this technically a new area since the area name changed? I caught something anyways, using that logic.
Then there's heading over to the School. The area name didn't change walking toward the school, but entering the schoolyard went through a loading screen, as it would entering a cave. Do I consider this also a new area? What about further in, like on Route 2 where there's a graveyard in a little secluded area off the main path?

Really? Nobody has any input on the topic?

I'd say so long as the location banner changes, that's a chance at one new Pokemon.

Well, yeah. That much is obvious.
The grey-area is where you enter an area that is kind of it's own area, yet the location banner didn't change. That's where I'm getting hung up.

Nuzlocke Mode can be interpreted by everyone differently. Its up to you whether or not it constitutes as a new area ultimately.

I suppose that's true. I guess when it really comes down to it, it's not like I have a panel of judges watching my every move or anything. I just want to play it as authentically to the spirit of Nuzlocke as I can.
