What's /nzg/'s thoughts on SOS encounters in a Nuzlocke? For example, if you're battling a Carbink and it calls for a Sableye. Do you still just catch the Carbink, or is the Sableye also a choice since they're both within your first encounter? Also, what about chaining SOS encounters to grind or try and find a specific Pokemon?
I personally am okay with it so long as it's still within that first encounter in the area because the longer it goes on the more you risk losing a mon and use up resources trying to find it, plus it is the only way to get certain Pokemons. Kind of like going into the Doubles Grass in Gen 5 and getting to pick whichever of the two you get to catch.
