TL;DR: Doing a hack focused on nuzlocking, wanting tips to make it as miserable as possible

Impatient Trainer:
You can capture as many pokemon as you want but as soon as they gain a level, they must be released. Basically you need to constantly capture and use different mons

Lolicon Complex:
Team full of baby pokemon, never evolve them

Homegrown Boys:
Can only use and raise pokemons captured in the initial routes of the game (the ones surrounding your hometown or the first closest to it with capturable pokemon at least)

Evil Team Grunt Wannabe:
Go through the pokemon pool used by the evil team in the game you're playing and restrict themselves to them
>>
>>31584753
Impatient trainer sounds like a worse version of Homegrown Boys since most of the time you find Gumshoos and Pelipper.

Evil grunt team doesn't sound bad at all, granted I can fully evolve the mons.

Lolicon complex I don't understand, can I use any pokemon that can evolve or can I only use mons like Pichu, Togepi, etc.?
>>
>>31584799
Nevermind, I didn't read that you can catch as many pokemon as you want for impatient trainer, still I don't like it because I'd have to invest too much into pokeballs
>>
>>31584799
>Impatient trainer sounds like a worse version of Homegrown Boys since most of the time you find Gumshoos and Pelipper

Impatient Trainer is for the whole game though. Don't think you'll be finding gumshoos every patch of grass after you leave Melemele

>Lolicon complex I don't understand
Normal nuzlocke rules, just never evolve pokemon
And if they're a single stage mon, don't capture them, ewww too old
>>
>>31584819
I'll decide between Evil grunt team and Lolicon complex. If I do lolicon I think I'm gonna give myself 6 pseudo legendaries base forms because why...why not?
>>
Currently doing a Pokemon Blue Nuzlocke, and I'm in Celadon trying to decide what my encounter here is going to be. Can't decide between Eevee (for Vaporeon), Abra, Nidorino or Clefairy. What do you think /vp/?

If it helps, my current team are Pidgeotto, Weepinbell, Graveler and Mew. (Yes I know Mew is sorta cheating but my integrity < My want for Mew)

How does this work ?
>>
>>31584945
If you have a way to evolve it, then get Abra, I know you already have Mew but in genwun Psychic is objectively THE best type. Vaporeon doesn't seem like a good option imo, if you want an eevolution I'd say get Jolteon. Nidoking is also amazing. Clefairy is just bad.
>>
>>31584983
Face Youngster Joey, he has a Rattata. You can then "steal" his Rattata and use on in your team (as in you can capture a rattata over someone in your team)

at least that's what i take from it
>>
Where would you put SM in terms of difficulty?

>>
>>31585153
If you use exp share: kinda hard until lurantis, then it gets very easy.

If you don't: hard, especially when you get to Poni because you'll most likely be underleveled if you never grind.
>>
>>31585181
>If you use exp share: kinda hard until lurantis

First island is a joke with exp share on
>>
>>31584990

Thanks for the advice!
Even though I do have a way to evolve Abra, personal bias makes me lean towards Nidoking so I think I'll go with him.

And here we go again...

I feel like i'm throwing my life away on this project.
And the worst thing is, i'm not even mad
>>
>>31585541
I would honestly consider trying this if not for no turbo

I'm just so used to turboing vidya now
>>
>>31585570
i just don't use turbo because i mostly play the gb/gba games on my psp

Try it, even with turbo. Its more fun and challenging than it looks.
>>
>>31585541
So you're nuzlocking each game in a row?
>>
>>31585614
Pretty much
The retirement rules make me use more stuff than i usually did and the no buying rule keeps me on edge and away from spamming items

First i intended on not only nuzlocking them in a row but making it that a failure would bring me back to the beginning of the "timeline" (as in failing in Ruby would bring me back to pokemon red) but after replaying gen I several times i quickly gave up on the idea

But after i finish this, who knows? I'll probably be 80yo without nothing better to do anyway
>>
>>31585688
No item buying applies to Poke Balls too right?

Do you just skip shit that feels not worth the ball and go without a catch that area?
>>
>>31585710
>No item buying applies to Poke Balls too right?
Yes
>Do you just skip shit that feels not worth the ball and go without a catch that area?
Yes too

You find a good number of balls to at least have a chance in old games (and get showered with them in the new games) so you're never at risk of not completing a team or something

But it also adds an element of strategy so you can't just go around filling a box every water route just to have a plan B
>>
>>31585732
>Gen 1 only has 8 balls total available under these rules
How do you do it?
>>
>>31586175
not counting the five you receive from the professor and a giftmon/casino in celadon and a giftmon in saffron

it's plenty if you don't go for hard to capture mons and make sure to put them on red/sleeping. makes it hard to recover if you get wiped though

yellow is even more generous
>>
>>31586194
You know that to receive thre free balls from Oak in the original games you have to basically handicap yourself?
>>
>>31586220
Ain't nuzlocking basically handicaping yourself anyway? And i meant the five balls you receive when you start the game from the aide. Then you can find the other balls in pokeballs or hidden items around. It sounds crazy, but it's doable - try it, it's fun. Makes you rage plenty when a pokeball fail to capture something though because each one is valuable.

>>31586295
it's right there, they're the "balls after delivering the parcel" ones. that's when you can start nuzlocking anyway. and i'm certain you find way more than 3 balls as hidden items/pokeballs after that point. maybe it was an effect of using the randomizer? it says nothing about changing item count though (i didnt touched the option to randomize items, by the way)

this is the last capturelog i had for Red, it's only missing the lapras you get in silph co instead of hitmonlee because i lost the save and had to redo that part so i went for lapras instead. at this point i had no more pokeballs and couldnt find more. pokemon marked with X died/ran away before i could try to capture them, so no pokeballs wasted
>>
>>31584753
N Run
1. You must designate certain points where you dump your team (safest bet is every gym or two gyms)
2. For each gym battle, you should have at least three different Pokémon on your team.
>>
>>31585541
Does this includes games that are basically the exact same eg RS or DP, or can you just do 1 of the two
>>
>>31586579
Forgot to mention they have to be from the surrounding areas like N had. For example, in Black, by Lenora you could have your Starter, Lillipup, Munna, Blitzle, Roggenrola and Timburr, which you'd have to release once you beat her.
>>
>>31586600
They're doing bith sapphire and ruby and blue and red etc, I think.
>>
>>31586600
Yeah. If you can endure basically replaying the game just after finishing it, it's fun to see the differences between versions, like the different sprites in Gold/Silver for instance or some small changes in text from Ruby to Sapphire (which i'm playing now)
>>
>>31586865
I really wish I could at least attempt this, but being a ROM hacker can be a real bitch sometimes.

I think you'll turn out just fine. RBY are the worst in terms of ball shortages, and later stuff like reusable TMs and way too many free Balls will make the rest of the games a cakewalk.
>>
>>31586895
Just try it whenever you have free time mang. There's no rush, i play when i feel like playing and it works out. That's why i think i'll take that long, but its fun. It also warms your heart seeing your bro list getting bigger each game.

Anyone else bothered by youtubers that bend the rules so their streams don't end up early and when they "beat" the nuzlocke (because of course they beat them with all the concessions and baby shit they use) they start bragging about how nuzlockes are really easy or how they're nuzlockes champs and stuff?
>>
>>31592709
How do they bend the rules?
>>
>>31592709
Example please?
>>
>>31592722
>>31592769
Team Four Star
Ace Trainer Liam
ProJared
>>
>>31592780
Can you link a video or somehing though? I don't want to pick through an entire series just go find one episode to be purposely angry about.
>>
>>31592780
That doesn't say how anyone bends the rules
>>
>>31592794
You're lucky then, the three give you plenty of rage material in every video, just pick one at random

But if you really want to, find the E4-first kanto steps from the TFS HGSS nuzlocke, part 5 (our four, forgot which one now) of ProJareds Moon Nuzlocke or the entirety of the Leaflocke from AceTrainer Liam

>>31592813
>That doesn't say how anyone bends the rules

TFS abuses refresh, exp share, manipulates encounters so they can catch specific pokemon, overlevel and wondertrade everything they don't like

Jared captured two pokemon in a route and rolled around with a pokemon that died because "it was bullshit"

Liam killed at least three pokemon but then went to go get giftmons and that somehow gave him the right to try and capture then again. Then he killed the pokemon again but kept trying because "waaaah"
>>
>>31585541
Think I might start this later tonight.
Just wondering, when did you considering G/S/C finished? After Red?
>>
>>31592834
>manipulates encounters so they can catch specific pokemon
In fairness I've done that, combined with a dupe clause it gives you a shot at getting a dratini in kanto

>wondertrade everything they don't like
It's as if they don't understand the point of doing it
>>
>>31592850

Honestly, the grind is so painfully boring that i only considered beating Red a must for beating Crystal. Gold and Silver i stopped right after reaching him, but with pokemon still 15-25 levels below him. The saves are still there and i'll go back and beat red one day... its just not going to be any soon
>>
>>31592834
Yeah, I just selected a few of the videos you mentioned, and I'm already sort of irritated. But people still eat this shit up.
>>
>>31592858
It's alright when it happens naturally. It's not even that hard to get magikarps and zubats earlier in the games so you can get better stuff later

TFS purposefully ran all around Kanto with a guide capturing all pokemon they could to guarantee a Houndour encounter in a certain patch of grass. Now that's bullshit - why even nuzlocke at that point? Just trade yourself a fucking Houndour already
>>
I might live stream a Nuzlocke sometime soon, but I've never done a video or stream before. I'm kind of hoping it will help keep my interest in the locke, because normally I hit that 2/3rd gym drag where everything is kind of slow and not as fresh as the beginning and not as cool as the end, and I get bored.
>>
I like the idea and appeal of nuzlockes but I always get bogged down and turned off with the first couple of routes because its the same ones I tend to use in a normal runthrough

Anyway to help combat this problem?
>>
>>31592933
Maybe a randomized nuzlocke?

I've tried some of those, and I usually make it so nothing OP can show up early on, and it'll be stuff like Zigzagoon for Sentret, etc.
>>
>>31592916
>I might live stream a Nuzlocke sometime soon, but I've never done a video or stream before

Just play normally. It's harder to keep interest during grinding sessions though so either do them off screen or do some kind of interesting banter while you do it

>>31592933
>I like the idea and appeal of nuzlockes but I always get bogged down and turned off with the first couple of routes because its the same ones I tend to use in a normal runthrough

use dupes clause? or make a list of pokemon you normally use and ban then from the nuzlocke? the beauty of nuzlocke is adapting the challenge to be interesting enough for you, there are plenty of alternatives

or as >>31592957 mentioned there are always the randomizers. you can make some crazy unpredictable stuff with them. there's even that gen1 randomizer adding stuff from all gens up to 6
>>
>>31585541
Are you emulating all of them or playing some on cart?
>>
>>31593048

Used the randomizer tool to generate a rom with no trade evos, so sadly, i'm emulating them. Except for the 3DS games which i'll play on a 3DS due to no randomizer tool so far, i guess.

Normal nuzlocke rules but: every pokemon i capture represents a piece of my clothing. Every pokemon that dies makes me throw that piece away. When i lose all my clothing, i'm posting the nude here with a pikachu dildo up my ass.

What games are easier to help me grant my integrity better? You better help me on this one, my ass is all hairy and you don't want to see it

I've got both HG and SS but 1 pokewalker, currently linked to HG

Does anyone know if I can link it to SS for a while and then relink it to HG without losing any of the routes I've unlocked in that game?
>>
>>31600613

Geodude covers Chikorita really well and is basically guaranteed, so Chikorita doesn't suck as much as it seems.
>>
>>31600988
Chikorita - Meganium have nice bulk.
Synthesis is awesome if you're doing no in battle items.
Typhlosion suxx outside of the Bugsy battle.
>>
>>31601001

Typhlosion is fucking awesome, even in HGSS where it has no movepool. Early Charcoal and later on Choice Specs plus Fire Blast by Goldenrod is fantastic if not very versatile.
>>
>>31601016
Choice Specs by Goldenrod? I thought getting it was fully random.

Megaynium and Feraligaytor are still better for a nuzlocke, imho.
>>
>>31601034

Well Choice Specs is Lake of Rage, should have been clearer with that, but Fire Blast is Goldenrod.

Feraligatr is arguably the best of the three overall but Water is easy to come by anyway.

So, for SM nuzlockes, how should Route 1 be handled, encounter-wise?
I mean, there are three different sections to it (Route 1, Hau'oli Outskirts, Trainer School), each with different encounter lists.

Is it better to split it up, or keep it as just one area?

Just failed another Sun Nuzlocke at the Grass Trial.

I haven't been able to get beyond this point in my attempts (I have not used a fire starter). The simple solution to this is to just grind more before taking on trials. But I'm curious what parameters you guys play SM nuzlockes with.

I'm trying to find the best way to play that's challenging and doesn't necessarily require a lot of grinding.

Here's what I do (in addition to the basic rules):
-No Exp. Share
-No Pokemon Refresh
-You can use Revives that you find or are given to you but only in battle, IE if a battle ends with a mon dead, they stay dead

How are you guys playing your SM nuzlockes? How are you feeling about your playthroughs?
>>
>>31608869
Well boys, I for some reason thought Illex forest was supposed to come before Bugsy's gym. And that means I got a dose of rival with a level 18 Bayleef. Goodbye Ekans, Totodile and Hoothoot.

Is it even worth continuing with just a geodude and a level 6 slowpoke
>>
>>31610010
If you're on an emulator just fast forward the fuck out of it and grind for like 10 minutes. If not, just keep trying or start over since you weren't very far at all
>>
>>31609779
Species Clause because otherwise you're gonna have 10 fucking Yungoose or Rattatas.
QR Code Clause in which if a Pokemon will appear on a route through island scan, I have to wait until I can add that to the catch pool before catching anything
Farmer Clause : I can't catch anything in Poke Pelego for the team BUT anything that decides it wants to stay on the Islands I can keep as a migrant worker to just expand the Pelego. They're just serfs to tend the island.

Then, there's the EXP Share Clause. If I don't use it I can have whatever 6 Pokemon I want in my party, if I do have it on I MUST rotate my party constantly based on my catches and the lowest level Pokemon take priority. Both keep me from being over leveled but the latter lets me use a lot more Pokemon and if I'm not careful I can get end up in situation where my Team will wipe because I let all the Pokemon useful for an event be too high leveled.

Lastly SOS clause, in which because of SOS mechanics I get my pick of what Pokemon I want from the encounter. It's risk vs reward.

I'd split them personally but it's up to you.

>>31611916
>I'd split them
So you capture one in each of these places? Isn't that a bit of overkill? Having a five mon team before even reaching the first "city"
>>
>out of 16 routes i've found 10 zigzagoons

Which god have i angered?
>>
>>31612137
By the time you reach Hau'oli City, you'd just have 4 Pokemon (Starter, Route 1, Hau'oli Outskirts, Trainer School), but you could catch a 5th in Hau'oli itself. That may be a lot for that early in the game, but SM does have a very different progression system than most other games - before you can get to the "first city", you have to go through 2 "routes", 2 rival fights, and a mini-dungeon.

Another thing worth noting is that if you don't split up the routes, SM Nuzlockers would have to take on the Trainer School teacher and her Magnemite with just your starter and whatever you catch in that first patch of grass on Route 1. So the potential Pokemon pool is...
>Rowlet
>Litten
>Popplio
>Pikipek
>Yungoos
>Ledyba
>Caterpie (likely a Butterfree by this point)
And of those, Litten is the only one that isn't completely shit on by Magnemite.

So really, despite them all being located on the greater area of Route 1, it's worth dividing them just so that Rowlet and Popplio players aren't screwed over.
>>
>>31612608
>And of those, Litten is the only one that isn't completely shit on by Magnemite.
pikipek learns rock smash quite early and yungoos can be useful

but i get your point

Still have 5 of my eggs
Siren The Phione
BeBop The Spoink
Remix The Leafeon

Strobe the Illumise

Riff the Carbink I did not expect two crits from Nosepass

Is it okay to speed up the emu for grind sessions?
>>
>>31615986
If you're grinding, of course. I think the point of contention would be "to grind or not to grind", not using fast forward. I doubt anyone doesn't use it when emulating - lame ass normal speed is only for original hardware.

>>31615969
i'm honestly surprised Carbink died and they are still alive.

I wish. I already had only five lvl50 dudes to take on the E4. Now i have 3 and need to train one of the shitty leftovers from my box.

Don't download a pre-made rom, customize one using this program, its pretty easy

Been a while since I played it, but this is my most recent update:

I caught a fucking Arceus but wasn't planning to use it since I had Gumball (and no plates) but then I was battling a trainer and HIS Arceus killed Gumball, so I guess god has spoken. I've found a Water, Grass, and Dark plate so far (randomized items... first time I'm not mad when I get a plate, lol). I'm giving him water since I don't have any water mons yet (also I named him Salt before I found the water plate/before Gumball died... such a fitting name). He'll probably be a glorified HM slave tho. Strength, Surf, and Fly have decent BP and save me some running back and forth.

The second mon on the route I got Chancey from was a Deoxys... I'm running into legends like crazy this game.

Shit my bad, I forgot to update the route for Crunch. She's from Relic Castle. Gumball was from Floccey Ranch (RIP lil buddy)

It's been a while since I nuzzed. Finally beat BS Platinum last week though:

Today I'm going to comb Pokecommunity for obscure hacks to stream, I'm starting with a recently translated Chinese one called Eternal Snow. No idea if it's playable or not, if it turns out to be shit I'll probably do a randomizer

tablet's fucking up on me so i can't do any of the fun edits I usually do but we just beat Gardenia.

I can see why people were warning me about doing a blind-run: those Abras in Eterna Forest threw me for a loop, for a time it was Switch In: The Battle: The Movie. Alas, Oy Vey the Geodude just could not tough it out. Pantsu the Buneary was added in immediately afterwards.

What are the rules regarding PokeRus to nuzlockes anyway? Perfectly legal? I know some people shy away from EV training, so its basically the same thing
>>
Couple questions about nuzlocking, what happens if I get to a town where two different NPCs give me a pokemon? (Isn't the rule one pokemon per route?)

Also, about the games where you can go to a route and spot a pokemon but still don't have any pokeballs, can I go back and capture any pokemon there when I have balls, the same pokemon or no capturing at all?

Also, saw someone talking about turboing Nuzlocke... that means to speed it up on an emulator, right?
>>
>>31624156
>what happens if I get to a town where two different NPCs give me a pokemon? (Isn't the rule one pokemon per route?)
You choose one
>about the games where you can go to a route and spot a pokemon but still don't have any pokeballs, can I go back and capture any pokemon there when I have balls, the same pokemon or no capturing at all?
Nuzlockes only begin when you can start capturing pokemon
>Also, saw someone talking about turboing Nuzlocke... that means to speed it up on an emulator, right?
Probably. It's up to you, no rules against it. Just some guys that don't like it (i particularly don't use it because i end up goofing during grinding and letting mons die)
>>
>>31624156
>can I go back and capture any pokemon there when I have balls, the same pokemon or no capturing at all?

Doesn't have to be the same, the encounters don't count till you have pokeballs

Currently on a Platinum run. I just won the 6th medal and have 7 lifes left (hardlocke Mode), and my team is (all lv41):

Torterra: EQ, razor leaf, curse, bite (Will be crunch)
Vaporeon: Surf, Blizzard, Toxic, Protect
Rapidash: Fire blast, Megahorn, Fire wheel, Bounce (at 47)
Togekiss: Air Slash, Fire blast, aura sphere, wish
Dusclops: shadow sneak, WoW, confuse Ray, substitute

Waiting in PC boxes: Floatzel, medicham, chansey, croagunk, budew, magikarp (the rest is shit)

Dead Box: starly, gastly, gabite

The question is, should I complete my team with Lucario or Weavile? My main purpose is to beat cyntia counting every Mon ir ver team. Maybe Dratini (MT coronet) would be a good choice too. don't want Gyarados bc I always use him in almost every of my lockes

Is Rollout Regular attack or Sp. attack? My Sandslash is Lax nature so if it's phys she can possibly shrug off her shit maybe.

Nah. Barring any sudden casualties my team consists currently of Sandslash, Skiploom, Quilava, Togetic, Flaffy, and a Dratini. Even distribution of sexes so I can avoid Attract shennanigans if they ever arise. They're all around lv 20 or so.
