>We asked 100 professional nuzlockers
Stopped reading there, it is physically impossible to be a pro nuzlocker.
A pro speedrunner measures by time. A pro e-sports player measures by number of wins per year.
A nuzlocker has no unit of measurement because the rules are arbitrary and do not actually exist within the game mechanics. Therefore a pro nuzlocker is an impossibility.
>b-b-b-but if you get paid for it that means you're a pro!
YouTubers and Twitch streamers that larp as 'pro nuzlockers' are actually just pro streamers/pro content creators. They make their money from streaming/content creation.
