Soul link partners?

The idea of playing a soul link is something that has been running through my mind alot the last few weeks. WIth Nappy and Shady finishing their randomized Diamond and Pearl run i decided to start my own.
The problem is I have no idea who to do it with and am wondering if anyone would like to join me, or if anyone knows a good place to find partners?

Thanks in advance,
Sincerely <3

How Do You Choose Your Starter?

Normally choosing your Starter in a game for a Nuzlocke varies player to player. Do you roll a d20? A d6? Do you determine by your player ID number? Or do you sacrifice an unhappy orphan to Helix Almighty and read the stars?

For me, I use a simple formula involving the Trainer ID.

Essentially, I add up all the numbers and get one sum, like this:
968509
9+6+8+5+0+9=37
Then I take the sum and multiply those numbers together:
3*7=21
And then I take that sum and add again.
2+1=3
Huzzah! A Fire-type! Now to plunge the world into perpetual burning death!

In case you get a number 4-9 for your results, Grass Type 1, 4, and 7, Water 2, 5, and 8, and Fire 3, 6, 9. It's been relatively effective for my Nuzlockes so far.

But I wonder how others choose their Starter. Feel free to discuss or recommended your own methods.

Pokemon yellow in game trades - team

Here are my proposed movesets. Please let me know what you would change.

Dugtrio

Yo so I just wanted to get an opinion or consensus about something that I've been thinking about.

For challenges, I know most of y'all use only one Pokemon of a certain species for challenges like monotype or color, etc. but are there any rules (other than challenge-specific ones) that explicitly state this or is this just what ends up happening?

Because I feel like it'd be helpful to have duplicates for some of them, because I know having an extra team member can be super clutch

Well I know that in the Monotype Challenge's case there isn't any restriction on using duplicate species, and some types for the challenge are even required to do this because of lack of variety. I cannot speak for every challenge but usually it should be pretty explicit in the rules if you can't use duplicates at all. It is halpful to use different move sets on duplicates though.

PS: Man it's weird not seeing my name in blue any more.

Man, I'm starting to feel like a real jerk cause I keep noticing errors in my waiting to be approved thread (cause I sent the post to myself as a PM) and I keep having to re-upload my post with the fixes. =(

I suggest you don't reupload. It just clutters the mods' list. Just wait for it to get approved then edit the first post.

My apologies. I figured it would overwrite the previous upload of the exact same name.

I'm not entirely sure how it works myself but I guess it just keeps adding threads with the same name to the list. All I know is that the threads are "hidden" until approval.

Oh, I just didn't want to be a burden, nor did I want to be the guy who turns in a half-a***d thread. So I was turning it in with fixes to the grammar and such. My last turn in is complete, I just hope I didn't screw up and get the thread prevented by turning it in more than once.

Well, hopefully it all works out :D If your challenge gets approved & I have a free game for it, I might join ^-^

I meant to do this the other day, but didn't get around to it unfortunately. Anyway, I'm going to be locking this thread. We already have a thread for discussing challenge ideas and challenges themselves, ie. what we're participating in, what we are looking at doing, etc. So I felt like having that and a DCC is a bit redundant. So, here we go...

Locked.
