Real talk I can't appreciate nuzlockes anymore after finding out Satoshi Tajiri specifically had pokemon faint instead of dying in order to not have children take death lightly and to give it proper respect.

I figured that the reason he chose fainting over death was because it would cheapen the weight and impact of death to have an item that just revives a deceased Pokemon instantly.

I mean that too. He basically didn't like hearing kids casually say, "I died" while playing games since he felt it cheapened death as a general concept in life itself.

I'm kind of a sperg about gameplay/story integration so I've never really liked Nuzlockes for that reason too
Playing happy go lucky games like Pokemon but your mons can die and shit just feels off to me. I appreciate extra difficulty but a lot of people it just gets to the point where they should be playing a different game like Fire Emblem

and yet literally everyone says they died or it died when the pokemon faints or when they fuck up wild pokemon. dying in a game will never be the same as someone dying irl so of course people dont care. might as well say shooter games will turn you into a killer sociopath or we shouldnt have pokemon fighting because of animal cruelty.

More annoying than that is how everyone in the Pokemon community says "lived", like "it lived that" when taking a hit. It makes them all sound ESL. At least use "survived" or something.

You are probably killing wild Minior and Spoink though, since the former dies if it stays in its core form and the latter dies if it can't bounce

What the hell does nuzlocke have to do with any of this? It's just a challenge run.

Every time I see anything about this manga is either that, or the page with the mc on top of her.

Is that the only thing this manga has to offer?

I always thought it could keep bouncing while unconscious like in the second clip, but honestly it's dex entry always did strike me as particularly grim.

Nuzlockes play respect to that idea. You can’t revive them, which makes each Pokemon that much more meaningful.

Nuzlockes are already immersion breaking fanfic gameplay
Who cares if they're "dead" or fainted, you're still just boxing them and never using them again

If you actually cared about them then you wouldn't be making them fight and die so that you can get some badges.
Pokemon battles are acceptable because the pokemon enjoy them; if they fucking die then it negates that.

whenever i do a nuzlocke i imagine my character is just an idiot who never realised that pokemon don't die when they faint in battle and never bothered to check.
