I has question. I'm currently doing the Nuzlocke Challenge on Fire Red. I'm a ways in but only now does a one of the rules get a little unclear to me. Are gift Pokemon such as Eevee, or even a special event Pokemon such as Snorlax banned?

When I did my Red nuzlocke, I banned em.
Kill the Snorlax and ignore the Eevee.

It's personal choice. For event Pokemon, I followed the traditional rules: if it was the first pokemon I encountered, it counted for the route, otherwise I couldn't catch it. For event/gift Pokemon, I never counted them. Eevee and game corner prizes were both legit, as were the Hitmon duo. It's up to you.

For me it depended if you had caught anything on the route you were in. Eevee would probably be in (Unless you got a mon at the Game Center). And for Snorlax, well if you already encountered/caught something else on that route, then he would be out.

Eevee is okay as it's a Celadon encounter
Snorlax is questionable: it's good only if it's the first encounter on those routes but it's a set encounter so it could be banned outright for that.
And remember to kill all legendaries

It's near impossible to reach Groudon without running into some poke in that cave.

Do you seriously use repels in nuzlockes?

I would imagine using them for one's convenience to walk around in a cave after getting your first Pokemon in the area wouldn't be that big of an issue. I suppose I could extend that to wanting to reach the second floor of a place to get a shot at another random Pokemon (I.E. Sableye in the Granite Cave Basements), but abusing it to get a legendary seems kind of lame.
