I want to shake up my next playthrough a bit, but sometimes I completely zone out while playing Pokemon so nuzlockes are really frustrating.


What other ways do you play that adds variety?


I was thinking of doing something like catching only the first Pokemon in a route like a nuzlocke, but instead of them dying in battle maybe I'd have to box a random Pokemon out after each major battle.


Another potential rule I thought of was each time I catch a new mon on a new route I have to immediately switch something out to add it to the party.


I like the idea of a run where the party changes frequently with a certain level of randomness, but am not sure what the most fun way to do that will be.
