Since they only learn take down they're ludicrously hard to keep alive in nuzlocke runs. Or you grind forever until it hits level 20 and you have a mettang that can actually do remotely anything.

Couple of questions inbound: I've never done a Nuzlocke, but I'd like to try it out. First thing I need to do is pick a game. This means deleting one of MUH SAVES, which is always hard for me, and I want to make sure it's worth it. So what game offers the best Nuzlocke experience? I have currently have Ruby, FireRed, Diamond, Heart Gold, and White (although I'd really prefer not to overwrite my HG and W saves) And any tips for Nuzlocking? I think it sounds like a great idea, but the idea that my pokemon could permanently die might make me play too overcautiously to the point where it's not even fun anymore.
Anonymous
>>12330243 IMO, "No Pokecenters" is a bullshit extra rule. How the fuck are you supposed to restore PP? It's not like the game allows you to buy PP restoring items (for some stupid reason)

I'm already playing with a level cap and I don't abuse Pokemon Centers. As far I'm concerned yes it is a harder rule- but incompatible with a level cap. You're just asking to be murdered then unless you use things with very high HP/defenses or sweepers that are so high-levelled you can KO everything in one-hit.
Not my style thank you very much.

Oh my, I'm seriously underleveled. Just fought my rival in Pastoria, and his first thing out was a level 34 Lombre.

What are the Nuzlocke rules for Dream World Pokémon? When I get more than one on Dream Radar, am I allowed to choose which Pokemon I'm gonna use or I must use the first one? When in the Dream World, can I catch one for each area or does the Dream World count as one area itself?Or maybe I shouldn't use Dream World at all...

I'm doing an emerald nuzlocke too. Got two badges so far. My team is: Lv21 Combusken "Clavi" Lv21 Taillow "Winnifred" Lv20 Aron "Harmon" Lv18 Tentacool "Manowar" Grinding to level 22 before going into the slateport museum. In honor of my fallen compatriots, I dedicate this post to Ziti the Zigzagoon (lvl 3-3) Jumble the Poochyena (lvl 3-16) Remy the Azumarill (lvl 4-20) Remy was a total bro, I miss him very much. Fucking Brawly's Makuhita got two critical hits on a five-combo arm thrust. Poor Remy didn't stand a chance ;___; Now I'm stuck with Manowar as my water type and he doesn't even learn a water type attack until level 25. god damn it
