Unfortunately I lost Pansear against that Heracross that destroyed me before. I thought I'd be fine to lead Swoobat but that ranger had Glare Dunsparce which made things complicated. Oh well. I also got the worst possible catch in the desert route so basically I have to rely on Swoobat to do most of the work which is fine because it's been getting overleveled from all the Bug/Grass forest trainers. I'm worried about Crustle/Volbeat but maybe Herdier will evolve by then and Palpitoad should do well. I don't have Fire/Rock coverage so if it has Tail Glow I'll be in trouble.
Also, I'm probably going to find another Cacnea/Maractus in Desert Resort. Calling it now.
>>37199219It's a lot easier. It's basically a sololocke where one pokemon gets so much EXP it can steamroll through the game through level alone. It obviously depends on the pokemon and early game/specific matchups might be tricky but it's usually one-sided.
Also I think RNG encounters is 60% of the fun of nuzlocking so I'm biased.
