>>37065399>>37065919Brett, I am sorry. I have failed you.
Not only did my Koffing get flattened by a Graveler's Rollout. But. I also lost Wingull, my first catch, while trying to capture a wild Solrock.
Sad.
I did manage to catch it though, so at least that wasn't a total loss, but finding myself without a Water type, I brought Marill back out and proceeded with some more grinding in preparation for the fourth Gym match.
Kept on with the adventuring, (caught another Seedot, evolved it, boxed it for later) encountering Team Magma again, actually gave me trouble. The first Maxie fight was about the most challenge I've had so far - took lots of swapping between Combusken and Swellow while my keeping my lower leveled members out of the fight to soak up the XPs.
After some evolutions, proceeded to Lavaridge and while I was expecting to meet with some difficulty for being slightly under-leveled, Azumarill just went and solo'd the entire match with Flannery. Using Rollout.
I dunno what to make of this playthrough - the gyms so far have me expect whippings that never come and leave me not expecting the sudden deathtraps that do crop up. I guess that's the nature of the Nuzlocke beast, though I expect the next one not to be as easy as the last half have been. We'll see how it goes?
