Just experienced the most clutch moment I've ever had in a nuzlocke.
>Playing an Emerald nuzlocke with level cap to gym leader's ace and no healing/x items in battle
>Fighting trainers in Petalburg Gym until the Wigglytuff trainer sets up and kills 2 of my 4 main team members, Swellow and Sableye, who I were banking on for Norman
>This leaves me with only Azumarill and Breloom who I doubt could do it alone, so I decide to start training up Anorith since it learns Protect at level 31 which I could use to cheese Slaking
>Almost done grinding when it gets kills by a wild Baltoy's Self-Destruct
>I get discouraged and decide to slap Bulk Up and Double Team on Breloom and then just hope luck goes my way, with Azumarill, Trapinch, Swablu, and Zigzagoon also in my party
>Begin the fight with Azumarill to kill Spinda since I know it has Psybeam, intending to sack it off to get a clean switch into Breloom
>Teeter Dance fucks me over and Azumarill dies before killing it
>Send in Breloom and set up 3 Double Teams before it gets put in the red, I give up going for Bulk Up and try to Mach Punch through Norman's team
>Spinda, Linoone, and Vigoroth go down and I burn through potions and Slaking's Sitrus Berry before Breloom dies to Slaking's Facade
>Effect Spore activates from the dead and Slaking is put to sleep with its health in the yellow and no way to heal
>I send in Swablu and get off 2 Fury Attacks, getting it in the red before Slaking wakes up and kills with Facade
>Send in Trapinch and get off a Bite on its Truant turn, bringing it down to minuscule HP before getting killed
>Send in level 3 Snaps the Zigzagoon and she kills Slaking on its Truant turn with Cut, gaining 8 levels
I'm going to have to do an obscene amount of grinding now but holy shit, these are the moments I do these runs for.
