After some thinking I decided this will be the team I'll use.
Trained them until they are close to the average level of the champion.
I'm worried about Bruno, his team can hit weakness for most of my team, but I can't do much about it.
Anyway, this is it. Wish me luck.

There were a lot of close calls, but we all managed to survive until the end.
Siren and Meteor performance was outstanding, but everyone was vital too.
Battle against the champion was very intense, with lots of switching to counter his pokémon, several close calls and, without even trying, each of my pokémon downed one of his.
>Meteor took down Pidgeot >Power Nap smashed Alakazam >Yonnie crushed Rhydon >Siren blasted Arcanine >Agni incinerated Exeggutor >Terry beat down Blastoise I'll start a new run on HeartGold soon.

Mistral, Investment and Primavera hurt really bad.
They with me through so many battles, I thought we would make it to the end.
Mistral death was really brutal considering how much bad RNG had to happen to make it possible.
Also Batsheva, was the first one to fall in combat and I had high hopes for her.

>>43986041 yeah i have a level cap of the next gym's ace, but as anon said, as long as you have a rockbro it should be fine even if you're considerably underleveled. And you're lucky that you have a female one, so it is immune to attract.
But if you don't want to waste Dig on a geodude, you can try to do a switcheroo where you start by paralyzing the cow (with bellsprout or butterfree), and then quickly switch to geodude. That's another way to avoid huge rollouts.
If you lose your geodude before Whitney you're fucked though.

Started a HGSS Nuzlocke a few days ago, thought I'd update it here since I'm bored. Everything was good until Bugsy, where I got to cocky and thought I could just curse stall Scyther without grinding. Ended up wiping but decided to keep going, as the Pokemon in my box were all Pokemon I've never used before in a run. Currently beat Whitney, and honestly my entire team is pulling their weight. Bellsprout and Drowzee are some surprise stand out members.
I don't have great type diversity and all my boxed mons don't really fill in the gaps. I'm gonna pick up Eevee from Bill, any suggestions on what I should evolve it into/who to replace on my team? While I really love Geodude rn as my wall, I feel he'll lose steam if I can evolve nidorino to nidoking.

...except for Bubblegum the Ditto who died to a fuckin meowth. Ditto really isn't worth very much in a nuzlocke - it's just not worth the turn you lose by having to transform.

Ranch the Bayleef (just evolved!)
Mailman the Rattata
Barn the Spearow
Boomer the Geodude

>>43986041 Dear Arceus, I was very close to taking big losses against Falkner.
I thought I could cheese with Yonielle and Rock Throw, but boy, I was wrong.
His Pidgey blinded Yonielle and after downing it, instead of switching to reset stats I went full retard and tried to brute force it.
Falkner's Pidgeotto has Gust and Roost, so with my misses and low S. Def he was chipping me away to death.
I finally switched to Aquilo but he barely put a dent on its hp.
Thanks Arceus, Jawhar was able to finish it with Water Gun but only because Falkner went full retard too and wasted Roost.
This was a wake up call, no more lazyness, I'll train my full team instead of relying on just one, no matter how easy it seems.
Anyway, waiting until night paid off and I got the two pokémon I wanted, Gastly and Wooper.
Adamant Gastly, though... >>43988433 >Full team wipe That's tough, kudos for not giving up.

>>43991018 I was planning to upate after beating Bugsy, but something happened.
I knew about Silver's fight in Azalea Town but I had forgotten where it triggers exactly.
As I was walking to the Ilex Forest to train a bit, it suddenly dawned on me just as I walked into the fight.
Holy crap, I was not prepared.
Jawhar's Bite quickly took care of his Gastly, but then he sent his level 18 Bayleef and I felt real despair as I saw my attacks do nothing against it.
Aquilo's Gust did chip damage, and he was quickly poisoned and I used Sand-Attack once just before I had to switch him out before he died, praying it would do something.
I switched to Belldayne, hoping he could tank Bayleef's Razor Leaf while buffing with Growth.
Despite maxing my Attack, Wrap barely damaged it, and it revealed Synthesis among its moveset.
Desperate, I switched to Poe hoping to put it to sleep while I try to figure something out.
I couldn't think of anything, as my strongest pokémon were weak against Bayleef, so I just used my last resort and used Curse, hoping Poe wouldn't get killed immediately after.
It worked, Bayleef kept using synthesis, but it eventually ran out, and I kept switching between Belldayne and Silk, putting him to sleep to minimaze damage taken.
When Bayleef finally went down, Yonnielle quickly dispatched his Zubat.
I'm ecstatic we won and we all survived.
My heart is still beating really fast. >>43992459 F

Unfortunately Stag the zubat died. He had so much happiness too... But, he was quickly replaced with a dank ass magnemite, and the last spot was filled with a magikarp which was quickly turned into a gyarados, and 2 other team members also evolved.
Now the plan is to let my new Raticate burn down the ghost gym, and afterwards do the rage lake stuff. Unfortunately my team is only lv. 20-22, but from previous runs i think it's doable with a crunch raticate even if it's underleveled.

It's definitely the hack I'm using. It's Fire Red Remixed with a Gen V moveset and abilities patch, so Icicle Spear is the consequence. It makes the game really exciting because you're never *quite* sure what someone could have on them.
Lost Madeline the Geodude to a Speed Boost Yanma in Route 5 and its Sonic Boom. Many that move is scary in Nuzlocke.

Quoted By:
>>44013140 It's generally discouraged. The trivialization factor depends on a couple different things in my opinion. Restrictions like set style and no items certainly make using legendaries not so clean cut.
Honestly, I find a lot of the lesser legendaries (Articuno, Cobalion, etc.) to be fairly reasonable, especially when it's possible to catch and raise up Dragonite and friends. Even more so in older games where legendaries aren't guaranteed 31IVs in two stats.

Six badge update. Erika was really easy as a result of having a Ninetales, and Koga went down easily to Walsh. But Sabrina was rather annoying. I started with Bolt but after Mr. Mime Baton Passed some Calm Minds to Venomoth I used Pixi. I got cocky against Alakazam though leading to her death.

>glacia Guy was able to sub punch the sealeo and walrein, Claymore took care of the glalie
>drake Flip swept everything but kingrda, which Bonnet took out
>wallace Tomba took out wailord but not without taking some lumps. Bonnet beat up on ludicolo, while Flip took out tentacruel and milotic with some earthquakes. Guy took care of whiscash, and Tomba came in for the close out on gyarados thanks to his shell bell healing a good chunk on the first shock wave (and gyarados missing with hyper beam lol).

Charge Beam buffs up May's SpA to +2, and Drifblim Double Teams.
Ice Beam misses, and Drifblim Will-o-Wisps May Kanker.
The next Ice Beam hits... but leaves Drifblim at 1 HP, and it Double Teams again.
Flint uses a Full Restore, and another Charge Beam leaves May at +4.
However, two straight Ice Beam misses and Double Teams end up leaving May in a position where even if she hits, Aftermath will do her in.
I swap Moominpapa in to shave health off of the annoying balloon with Sand Stream.
I miss an Ice Fang as it Will-o-Wisps Moominpapa, but this is according to plan- I want it to not use Will-O-Wisp as I switch in my next mon.
Nell comes in on Ominous Wind.
A Will-o-Wisp misses her and I'm exuberant as this means my victory is guaranteed as Nell uses Substitute(I thought Nell would outspeed, but despite her not doing so, I lucked out).
After a bunch of turns where the Balloon tries in vain to harm Nell, she finally lands a direct hit with Ice Beam, ending the menace.

A first Charge Beam fails to buff as Embargo Misses again, but the second succeeds in powering up May to +2... as she gets hit by Psychic.
Another Charge Beam puts May at +4, as a third Embargo Misses, and a Surf finishes off Spiritomb.
>Roserade Energy Ball Misses, and Ice Beam annihilates the plant.
>Lucario I completely blank on the fact that it has Aura Sphere, but apparently so did Cynthia, as it misses an Earthquake and is taken out by Surf.
>Garchomp It misses a Giga Impact, and Ice Beam makes short work of it.

>>44025960 Since I couldn't get a Natu and I didn't rely just on one pokémon (Freud) to do all the work, I trained Sloppy, and since she would need to be level 37 to evolve (well over the limit), I went to the Slowpoke Well to get the King's Rock to evolve her into Slowking.
It proved to be the right decision because Freud couldn't even take out Primeape because it kept being flinched with Rock Slide, which didn't miss a single time yet my Psybeam missed after a single Double Team. Fucking hax man.
Anyway, I switched to Jawhar to finish Primeape and weaken Poliwrath a bit, then Sloppy finished it.

>>44029604 is great for a standard run, but I'd say things are a bit more up in the air for Nuzlockes.
The Turtwig line is by far the best in both offense and defense for more or less the entire earlygame. It stays very good for the rest of the game too, but struggles in Snowpoint and isn't too great in the league.
The Chimchar line is a ball of death, but the relative frailty means an unlucky crit in a bad spot can cost you your main powerhouse.
The Piplup line is very underwhelming for the entire earlygame, but once it becomes Empoleon it is by far the best mon for a Nuzlocke run thanks to great defenses(thanks to typing) and great Special Attack.

>>44034085 >Lance >Gyarados Lead Serana against Gyarados.
Nobody can tank his hits except for Serana, so I stay in.
Ice beam, watterfall, Serana deals significantly more damage.
Another ice beam takes him to red and he crits and nearly kills Serana, leaving her at 1HP.
I set up rain as he uses a restore.
Immediate rest, SERANA OUTSPEEDS GYARADOS, who flails at full hp and deals no damage, hydration kicks in.
The following turns Gyarados spams waterfall, Serana takes him down with 2 beams and a surf.
>Aerodactyl; switch to Franky Franky nearly gets OHKO'd by aerial ace, I was so scared of rock coverage I forgot he had flying moves!
Franky kills the fucking rock bird with close combat, but he cannot fight any longer.

Hagar comes in to Intimidate, but a Crunch crit means he can't stay in.

Watchog uses Hypnosis, but Wario's Chesto Berry wakes him up, and Vital Throw ends the battle.

>>44026905 Just earned my Mineral and Glacier badges.
I fought both leaders back to back because they have almost the same level limit.
Muddox singlehandedly destroyed Jasmine's team, oneshoting everything.
Pryce's team was trickier. Jawhar took care of Seel without problems, and I send out Sloppy against Piloswine.
Should have been easy, right? Well, nope.
I almost lost her to hax, Surf missing because of Hail + Snow Cloack and Ice Fang flinching her several turns in a row.
She managed to survive with almost single digit hp.
Then Charlemagn finished the remaining Dewgong with ease.
I had trained Hero for this fight, but ended not using him. He'll have time to shine another day.
Now it's time to deal with a redhead with daddy issues and blast off the Team Rocket from the radio station.

Puddle got sent out next and managed to land Hypnosis. Two turns of Double Slapping got Starmie into the red when it woke up. Puddle survived with 8 hp from a Pulse before killing the cursed thing. If Staryu hadn't of had the potion used on it we were dead- a healed Starmie would of swept us.

Are there any widely agreed on rules for the wild area in swsh? I've heard a few different ones. >1 initial encounter and then 1 more after each gym >1 encounter for each named region in the area.
Anonymous
Quoted By:
>>44040447 Well, doing a unique encounter for each region in the area makes it incredibly easy to fill out your team and have plenty of spare pokemon, which sorta trivializes the entire point of limiting your options. So, if you're interested in the challenge, then you'd be best of doing 1 initial encounter, then 1 new encounter after each gym.
