Started Sacred Gold earlier, this is my current status as of just arriving in Violet City.
Was so excited to run into a Seedot as my first Pokemon on Route 30. He is fantastic. Also Gidget, who I caught in Rout 46 is surprisingly tough with Pound. Starscream (first Pokemon I caught) is doing alright so far. I was extremely bummed to run into a Bellsprout though on Route 31...hopefully Sacred Gold made him useful. We'll see.
I've already suffered my first loss, and it was devastating. Decided to run into Dark Cave before going to Violet City to see what I would catch in there. Bumped into a Teddiursa who turned out to be the destroyer of hopes and dreams. It only took one Fury Swipes (x4 hits!) and Uso, my Eevee that was gifted to me by Cynthia, was gone. I was so tempted to just kill it as revenge, but I caught her instead. I'm sad to lose my Eevee so soon, but I gotta keep on going if I'm ever going to beat Red. RIP Uso.
As I post this I realize I shouldn't be using Seedot, since Cynthia gave me the Eevee first. Not sure how gift Pokemon are usually handled, I might allow it though because this is my first Nuzlocke and some leniency might be nice to ease me into the challenge.
