Got past Clay
>Hippowdon
Athina used Hydro Pump, dead Hippo.
>Seismitoad
Madrid came in, survived EQ, used Return that about about 40% and then barely survived Muddy Water. Hyper Potioned back up and then barely got hurt by Sludge Wave so Madrid finished the job with another Return.
>Marowak
In with Kobenhavn, took Stone Edge for 2/3 of HP. Healed up, next one was a EQ, heal up, another critical Stone Edge + sandstorm damage finished Kobenhavn off. Athina managed to 1HKO with Hydro Pump.
>Krookodile
Athina in one with Hydro Pump.
>Steelix
Athina used Scald to trigger the berry, Steelix went with Coil. Hydro Pump next turn did the job.
>Excadrill
Tried to use Hydro Pump and get it in one but Excadrill was faster and used EQ to kill Athina.
In with Budapest, Excadrill used Swords Dance, Budapest Scald that managed to burn it and nearly killed him, Sitrus berry saving him from burn damage. Excadrill EQ, Budapest lives with 2HP left and kills Excadrill with Scald. Clutch!

Sad about Athina dying as she was going to the box after that to wait until I got Surf and evolve her into Kingdra. I really wanted that Kingdra. Kobenhavn was just a worse slower version of the other 2 water mons. Tallin and Stockholm back from the bench.
Not too thrilled with the encounters lately, I don't really see any changes to the team before I face N's Team Rotom

I've been busy, but I've just beaten Wake. As you can see, I got a little overzealous with the grinding. I got lucky scoring Fug, and hopefully that luck will last. Wake's fight was nothing special. Seth bodied Articuno and Exeggcute, but Deoxys' Swagger forced a switch into Gail, which OHKOd with Shadow Force. As for the HM situation, Seth gets Surf, Fug gets Strength or Rock Climb, and Pokémon #6 gets the last remaining move. I'll probably fight Fantina tomorrow. Thankfully, there's no need to grind.

whoa....

If she'd spammed Trigger I probably would've lost (she sent Sjwhale in against Hosajack after Caroline fainted), but I managed to bait her into using Water Pulse with Ignut. Then it wanted to use Ice Beam on Proboskito for some reason...? I'm not complaining. Only death so far has been Frieden, because Viol's Krokling violated my team with Rock Tomb.

Wow I made a typo huh? Love the name for your Dodrio. I had a Hydriegon I named the same.
I'd recommend it sure. Even just the route to the first Gym is very fun. Choice between 5 starters, you got both parents, there's a swamp, and a power plant just a few minutes away from each other.
I wasn't aware of the schtick of accidentally warping between our world and the pokemon world when I downloaded it. But it was kinda cool the first time.
>>45432009
Perhaps. Seed Bomb and Curse are the two options available early game at the hotel.

Madrid failed a paralysis check for an attack that would finish off Rotom-Ice, Rotom landed a crit and that was it. Should have healed up and cured paralysis. Its actually quite a big loss since Madrid was my go to for dealing with Water and Flying types.

Training up Luxembourg and Bucuresti for Skyla is gonna take awhile.

Update: Her Archeops outsped my Manectric and fucking killed it. Fuck. Thought I would've been able to outspeed it, even with Manectric's lower base Speed
Dusclops put in a surprising amount of work, but died to Togekiss's Life Orb-boosted Hurricane. Managed to get a big chunk of it's HP off of it w/ Ice Punch
Snorlax and Gigalith put in the most work, by far. Snorlax took Ice Beams from Swanna like a champ, where Flygon would have died in one hit. Snorlax also did a lot of damage and managed to easily kill Swanna and put Skarmory to sleep for Gigalith to finish it off
Gigalith had Steath Rocks, so I used that on Skyla's Rock-weak team to make killing things easier. Gigalith's high Defense also made even the likes of Gliscor's Earthquake do little to stop it's Stealth Rocking and Stone Edging
Exeggutor did jack shit, except get switched in by Skarm's Whirlwind. lololololololololololololol

We lost a real one today. RIP EdEddnEddy. But to be honest, it feels like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I can't teach him any HMs, but with Cassie, I can teach her Rock Climb and Waterfall. But we'll see when I complete my team. The fight with Fantina was pretty easy. Petunia crushed her Truant Farfetch'd, but Zigzagoon's Static crippled her, forcing a switch into Fug. The same thing happened, but I just had to roll with it, and I managed to take down Camerupt. I'm going to Canalave, so hopefully, Iron Island is nice with the encounters.

So I finally managed to patch up my team, but I have to say I'm not feeling very confident. This is definitely NOT a team that would pull me through the E4 yet and I'm unsure about Cyrus.
Okinawa was meant to be a special tank, but I accidentally EV trained it for attack/speed and wasted a bunch of time. As a result I don't really have any pokemon that can properly tank hits. Kongo and Okinawa are okay, but they're no tanks. Also balancing HMs with actually useful movesets is kind of a hassle.
Either way this is what I'm going with so I'll try to be careful.

That's something you can decide on. Personally I allow one pokemon per area as long as it's the first one I encounter, that means it may also be a gift or from a game corner.

Skyla done, fuck Gliscor.

Luxembourg dealt with Braviary and Archeops in one while Bucuresti and Warszawa managed to finish off Mandibuzz in the 2nd turn. Gliscar, Skarmory and Swanna left. Switched out Luxembourg for Budapest and Warszawa for Stockholm. Budapest died after 2nd EQ, Bucuresti survived thanks to a Protect. Sending Luxembourg against Gliscor would be suicide mission so lets go Praha. Combination of healing items, Protect and Crunches in beetween finally managed to get Gliscor off. Stockholm meanwhile died to critical Ice Beam from Swanna after getting hit by Brine once before, Luxembourg finished the job in one hit (same turn as Gliscor) and then KO'd Skarmory.

Tallinn is back on team and Vilnus is probably filling the other blank. Warszawa will probably make place for Bratislava, only coming back for the gym for Tallinn.

Unfortunately another teammate was taken before her time. Arena Trap is a bitch. I was able to catch her murderer though, so that's something. Lt. Surge was kind of a pushover except that his Raichu got off 5 or 6 Double Teams before I could kill it with Alvarez's Magnitude. Moliere got paralyzed by Static and I didn't want to risk using Dig because that's two chances for paralysis to work.

Cloverfriend here, made it past Guy (I fought him before ruse cruise). No new deaths to report, although the game hasn't really gotten serious yet so it's not that impressive. (Seriously, how does Guy filter plebs so hard? He's basically just Surge with an Ice Beamer and a shitty Fire move.)
Encounters have been unremarkable, other than Crystaquil on 28 and the special egg being a Fuermiga (which I boxed because I don't want to get it killed before its evolution of 40). I've been a good goy and got the Amulet Coin, Leftovers, and Choice Band, although since you can't steal boss trainers' items anymore I don't know where my next Thief target is.

Doesn't Blaze Black come packaged with an instant grass shake cheat code? I honestly think it's fine to use those.

>>45439183
Do you allow Dynamax for your own team? If you do, you could Dynamax when they do and use Max Guard on turns 1 and 3, meaning you only have to take one max move. Other than that, I don't know either.

I have only two encounters left, Pokemon League and Victory Road. I have a load of good Pokemon in the box, but the problem is I need Water types since Fire and Ground fuck me a bit, and I keep losing or saccing them.

I was really hoping for Electabuzz on Route 222, but no, the fucking 5% Magneton when I really could have done with Electivire for Volkner. Which then led to me training and losing a Gastrodon in a dumb way, then saccing more shit to defeat Volkner because I'd had enough.

Since I last updated, I've lost 6 Mons, including a Granbull with SD, Earthquake, Thunder Punch, and Poison Jab. I haven't even taken on Byron. This is my team now. Say something nice about it. On the plus side, a (now dead) wild Pokémon I caught had a Luck Egg, so, I have that now.

Well, this is depressing. Ingeltrud the Ambipom and Cosentinia the Roselia both fell to an Ace Trainer on Route 216. Ingeltrud got crit by Scyther's X-scissor and Cosentinia got worn down by status effects and hail against Dusclops, ultimately dying to burn.

And then, just to rub salt in the wound, my Route 216 encounter right after that fight was a goddamn Zubat. I swear, of all the things Gen 4 did, making Zubat available on virtually every route at night is one of the most infuriating things. I crit the Zubat, btw.

The upside is that I did snag a Swinub on Route 217 and Sneasel on Acuity Lakefront; both excellent options to refill my party.

Yep, I think it's big brain time. I'm almost tempted to just use the Giratina I caught and say 'well I didn't have any rules against legendaries', but I feel like that would be cheating so I won't.
Either way I'll have to train up my team again. It really fucking sucks though, but I've come too far at this point to just give up. I'll bring it to Cynthia even with a meme team.

Second death, not altogether unsurprising. I fought the Route Master on route 7. He has 3 level 29 Pokemon with IV/EV investment and held items. I almost pulled through - I had to switch Hazmate out of his last, Glasshot. I thought it'd use Charge Beam to finish me and hope for a Sp. Atk boost, so I switched in Ribbizap, but it used Aurora Beam for the 2HKO. That battle would be much easier if he didn't have a Stealth Rocks lead. Oh well, Ribbizap is kind of a shitmon anyway/

Final preparations for the E4 in Sun, got everyone to equivalent levels now just working out movesets and if there's anything I need to switch.

I think I'm gonna shit all over Olivia and Hala but I'm guessing Acerola and Kahili are gonna be a real issue cause I don't have much to directly deal with them, doubly so considering I'm not using healing in battle. I may just have to brute force them and fingers crossed nobody important to my Kukui plan dies.

That's what I've been doing with the games I've run recently, with the rules turned off once the Champion is beat. Mostly just for casual fun; extending the nuzlocke to the post-game goal is a recipe for major disappointment in most cases. The only exception in my experience is GSC/HGSS, if you can even consider Kanto as post-game in those games.

Update on the Sun Elite Four, going better than expected nobody dead yet off to face Kukui now.

Hala got some damage in but nothing I was worried about.

Olivia was a pushover.

Acerola was tricky and nearly killed Nymph via confusion but eventually managed to get her.

Kahili was a nightmare and it's lucky I had the good idea to switch out Shadow Ball for Rock Slide on Gallium just for this fight or her Toucannon would have killed at least one team member before it could be stopped.

Got my items set up on the members based on which of Kukui's pokemon I'm aiming for them to fight, things might change mid-battle if someone dies unexpectedly though.

Kukui defeated, lost Nymph the Lurantis due to a misjudgement.

I had Bailey the Palossand out and she was about to finish off his Magnezone with Earth Power but he switched out to Decidueye his last full health mon. I knew he was gonna go for either Leaf Blade or Spirit Shackle either of which would have killed Bailey cause she was in yellow health so I banked on Leaf Blade and switched to Nymph.

It went for the Shackle. Which did just about half health and now Nymph was stuck in and with no healing allowed she was doomed to die.

Her death was not in vain though it gave Ace the Talonflame an opening to come in cause Stealth Rocks were up so he couldn't survive that plus an attack on switch. One Flying Z-Move later and Decidueye was done then when Magnezone came in Ace Flare Blitzed the shit out of it until it died (Kukui kept healing it) making it out with just a sliver of health.

Grinded my whole team to level 33 with Audinos. Took forever to do. El Chopo, the Axew was at level 36 when I was done.

Basically, exactly what I expected happened. Burgh wiped me out completely. There was no way for me to get through Heracross and Leavanny. Shorty(Vullaby)'s Pluck did about 90% to either of them, but she's not fast, and Burgh has potions. I either get KO'd or die to Toxic. There's no way for me to win. Under normal circumstances, it's game over. What pisses me off is that I lost pokemon to random critical hits. If I hadn't lost Double D(Swellow) to the second trainer in the gym, I'd have likely swept Burgh with her. El Chopo got taken out by a Brick Break, Maxime(Liepard) dies to anything at all, and Burgh healed his Heracross before I could Fake Out and KO it. Couldn't win.

Well, I honestly do not feel like starting over, so I'm going to reset from before Burgh. I'm also going to enact my Revive clause to bring back Swellow for this fight. The run's invalid at this point. I'll just try to beat Burgh for satisfaction's sake then move to Platinum or something.

Long story short, don't nuzlocke these gen 4/5 mods. It's just a PITA.

Make that Plusle a Batton Passer. Pidgeot learns Close Combat upon evolving too, if you are in need of some punching.

It's the only Water type I have for now.
I may switch Azurill with Tyrunt\Amaura when I'll get them and find another Water type later.

Holy fuck I'm using Miltank for the first ever time in my Silver run right now and this thing is a fucking monster. I had no idea it was this bulky and fast even though Whitney's should've tipped me off.

Icicle Badge acquired thanks to Cidal the Infernape, Ninzaci the Toxicroak, and Gary DS the Magnezone.
>Sneasel
Cidal OHKOs with Mach Punch
>Piloswine
Flamethrower OHKO
>Froslass
Switched to Gary DS while it sets up Double Teams
Magnet Bomb crits and OHKOs
>Abomasnow
Paralyze it with Thunder Wave as it goes for Avalanche
Damage it with Magnet Bomb and then run scared to Ninzaci when Abomasnow misses a Focus Blast
Beat Abomasnow down with a couple Poison Jabs as it unwittingly uses Water Pulse to heal Ninzaci

This may be my crew for a while. As much as I like Selanar the Mothim, taking 75% from Saturn's Toxicroak using Poison Jab does fill me with confidence in his survivability. For now, he'll be in the daycare on standby.

You've wiped twice in Shield? Against who, may I ask?

>>45462727
Just run around Kalos for a half-hour. Azurill should be happy enough by then to evolve.

Update. I've made the decision to continue my Blaze Black run using my revive clause.
>Revives found in the overworld may be used to revive 1 pokemon (Up to 3 times per game; gifted revives are prohibited)
With that, I brought back El Choppo, the Axew, and Double D, the Swellow. I realized that I did not have an encounter in Striaton City, so I was able to fish in the western fountain area. At first I ran into a couple Psyducks, but due to the dupe clause, I chose not to catch another one. The third encounter was a Slowpoke, so I caught it and named him Flocka. All I can do now is train up Flocka, and probably grind up some levels overall, and challenge Burgh once again. Wish me luck.
>RIP
Maxime, the Liepard (32)
Shorty, the Vullaby (33)
Ty, the Psyduck (25)
Don Juan, the Turtwig (19)
Beavis, the Rampardos (34)

At first I didn't want to use Ty, but now I kind of miss the little guy. Golduck might have been cool. I would have liked to abuse Disable as well as Prankster on Maxime to cause trouble. Was thinking of running Attract on Vullaby for more shenanigans.

Shorty left her Eviolite to El Chopo. I believe he'll make good use of it. The grind is going to be awful, but I'll beat Burgh one way or another. Slowpoke evolves by holding a Kings Rock in this game, right? I might like a Slowking. Although Burgh might rip him a new one, since he's ridiculously strong.

Would anyone here help with providing eggs for an egglocke in Shield? I really doubt my few casual friends will get me eggs.

Just asking to see if anyone would.

How do you even deal with Watson in RS if you didn't pick Mudkip? The only things I can imagine helping are like...Makuhita? Keeping a Nincada unevolved for the ground typing? I'd like to avoid item spamming or overleveling, but I have no idea how to beat Magneton with shit like Grovyle, bug types and flying types on your team.

Don't have geodude, my Granite Cave encounter was Sableye, which can learn Rock Smash but probably gets 2HKO'd by shock wave. At least it's helpful vs Voltorb selfdestruct. I also have to deal with the first lv22 Magnemite without getting my whole team paralyzed out the ass, while having 0 super effective moves except Rock Smash.

Oh actually nevermind I have a boxed Shroomish, I can just grind that bitch up to Breloom

Fished and landed a Poliwag in Pinwheel Forest. Environment Clause landed me another pokemon. Named him GIEF, although I don't think I can get Water Stones now. Dude in Castelia gave me leaf stones. Fuck, I really wanted a Poliwrath. I guess Politoed will have to do. Anyone know if you can catch a Gloom in this game? Bellossom would be awesome. I already missed my chance to get a Victreebel, because I stupidly neglected to catch a Bellsprout due to being salty about it not being a Petilil.
>Environment Clause: Pokemon found in different environments(grass vs. in the water), can be considered separate available catches for that route. Fishing and surfing are considered the same environment. Shaking grass/dust patches/bubbles in water can be treated separately as well.

So to review the rules:
>Set
>No healing items in battle
>Blind run
>Environment Clause
>Revive Clause
>Dupe Clause
>White out is considered a game over, unless the revive clause can be applied, in which case, you deposit every other pokemon.
>Otherwise standard rules.

EV train Sableye in SpD against wild Tentacool using the Old Rod, holding the Macho Brace to make it go faster I may or may not have done this myself when I was stuck with only an Aron against Wattson

It's a fun game to nuzlocke, good luck. As for tips, maybe look up the where the rival fights are, there's at least one of them that's pretty unexpected and caught me by surprise one time since I haven't played it in a few years, almost ending my run. Also take your time in Eterna Forest and other places where you get an NPC ally, it's great for grinding. Maybe even grind some boxed mons there so you don't have to bother with it later when you need to replace something
