Ok /vp/ that's my situation:
I want to start a new playthrough on a 2nd gen pokémon game, (should I pick Gold, Silver or Crystal?) but I don't want to play the same shit as always like a normal run or a simple nuzlocke challenge, I want to try something new like a monotype run (already done) or similar. Suggestions?

Capture the first 6 pokemon you see. Whenever a pokemon faints, replace it with the next pokemon you see.

Use Acton replay/gameshark codes to do a Sunkern only run. Only one suunkern no evolving.

I did it in Crystal.

The first 6 species or the first 6 pokémon? For example, if my first 5 encounters after I picked my starter are 5 Rattata my team will be composed of the starter and 5 Rattata?

Go with first 6 species. This actually sounds like a pretty cool idea.

And by use action replay/gameshark codes to do it, I mean just so you can have a level 5 Sunkern right off the bat.

In case that wasn't clear though it probably was.

Try a non-STAB run. Pokémon may not use moves of their own type. This also applies to HM moves. Rendering Smeargle and Ditto completely useless

Quilfish only
HM slaves can't be used as meat shields nor can they battle

Have fun.

You can only catch a pokemon after a gym leader win.

You must run away from all other wild pokemon and only gain exp through trainer battles.

If a pokemon dies it is out of the game for good effectively only giving you 9 lives the entire game (starter + 8 badges)

In my rules, Status moves also count as STAB moves if they have the same type as the user

Do an N run and only use Pokémon native to the area, releasing (or boxing, whichever) them when you move on.

Those sorts of runs just end up with you having one really overpowered pokemon and steamrolling everything with brute force.

Henceforth, my name is Mr. 6ies, I pick up the "6ies Challenge", rules:
-You must capture only the first species you see, until your party is full
-If you fail to catch that pokémon, you won't be able to catch any other pokémon until you catch another pokémon of the same species of the one you failed to catch
-Once your party is full, you shall not catch any pokémon
-When a pokémon faints, it must be considered dead and you can't use it anymore
-When a pokémon faints, you must replace it as soon as you encounter a new pokémon
-You can't catch two pokémon of the same species, so when a pokémon dies you won't be able to catch a pokémon of the same species again
-Pokémon of the same evolutionary line are considered belonging to the same species

>First dubs decides the game I play: Gold, Silver or Crystal.
>Second dubs decides the starter I pick and what nickname I give him/her

GO!

Not when the pokemon are weak as shit and have no moves.

Even overleveling gives only a small edge.

I STAY ON A ROUTE UNTIL I'VE CAPTURED ONE OF EVERYTHING AVAILABLE - MALE AND FEMALE, NORMAL AND SHINY. I CALL IT THE CAPSLOCKE CHALLENGE.

Have you considered using Dice rules to make it interesting? Sure, it's a bit awkward to have to roll dice all the time, but it makes things unpredictable and fun.

Pic attached is a Dice Wish Nuzlocke ruleset I made. 50:50 chance of good or bad wishes. You can always set your own rules too.

Fully Gen 2 mons only.
That means no Kanto mons, and no Pokemon related to them like Slowking or Kingdra.
