So it turns out that this style of Nuzlocke just encourages me to grind harder, but its the most high stakes, unforgiving grinding I've yet experienced. All my pokemon are perpetually in the low yellows, and I haven't even faced my first trainer yet. Ignatius is pulling way more weight than he should be expected to, as he was the only one who got a chance to power grind on Route 101 (the Zigzagoon eats the catch there, no point in going to Oldale before I've gotten the most exp possible). Houston and Marielle hit too lightly and take hits too hard to stand toe to toe to wild Pokemon right now, so they're getting babysat until they start to pull ahead of the curve.
I've bought 7 Potions and 5 Additional Pokeballs, along with 2 Antidotes. I'm now completely out of money, so until I start winning fights I'm not going to be able to buy any more healing items. I'm not going back to Oldale town regardless.
Three Potions gets my team up to a reasonable level of health, time to take on the world.
