regardless swampert is easily the best pick for doing RSE/ORAS nuzlockes since he can completely blank most of the gyms in the game, especially Watson who can be a run ender. Swamp's line can learn everything from his excellent STAB moves to ice, rock, fighting, and steel making it easy to patch holes in your run's comp, and if RNGeesus has been kind to you swamp can serve as a great HM slave as well.
>starters are good enough to avoid being boxedStarters are integral to completing nuzlocke challenges and solo challenges and losing them often means game over for the former. The only starters deemed too shit to bother with for challenge run purposes are pikachu in yellow and serperior.
