Hi guys! :3
Hi! My name is Andreja, and I've been a huge fan of Pokemon since I could barely talk. It started with the anime, but as soon as I found out about the games, I couldn't put them down. I mostly prefer casual playing - catching the ones I like and... well, imagining I'm really in the game... that or a nuzlocke, although the first-catch rule is as annoying as it is interesting. My first game was fire-red, which is probably the reason I like the third gen the best. Fave Pokemon: I'd choose the Ralts line - a really neat catch in my Nuzlocke.
I have done some competitive battling in the past, and I do know a thing or two about it too, but I'm far from an expert. Soooo, since I barely have any friends that play those games, I feel this could be a great place to connect with some more Pokefans. |
Welcome!
I'm pretty new here too but PC is full of very friendly people. We also have section devoted just for Gen 3, so you should check that out. Hope you enjoy PC! |

Welcome. A convenient place for a fan of the series.
You like Nuzlockes, eh? Which of the games have you done such runs for, mostly FR/LG/R/S/E or most of the other ones? There's many people who are fans of such runs here, as well as a challenge forum, if you're interested in posting in there. If you like casual runs and Nuzlocke, presumably you would like Pachirisu, the epitome of the casual Nuzlocke. Still, though, Ralts is an interesting choice, as they did have an interesting place as one of the first straightforward early-game Psychics, although their evolutions do tend to approximate a Pachirisu. Any preferences as regards their evolutionary forms, who are quite different in a way? The popularity of the series has perhaps decreased a bit. You should be able to discuss most of your interests, from the third gen to the anime, on designated forums here, so you may well be fine with discussing such things if you wish to. |
Before I say I anything else, I want to thank you guys for welcoming me to the community so nicely! You are awesome, and I really appreciate that! I'm sure that I'll have quite a blast here. And I'll also make sure to visit all the sections you guys have recommended me.

I don't find nuzlockes enjoyable anymore, either. They are challenging, they can give you a few new Pokemon you like, help you get deeper into the game and that's all cool and fun but... after a few times it gets tiring having to settle with the same Pokemon which usually aren't even bad or weak but you just don't like them. It would be more fun if we could pick one Pokemon per route, in my opinion. Thank you for welcoming me! Quote:
Liked, might be better way to put it, heh. As I stated in the comment above, some aspects of the challenge got a bit tiresome over time, mainly because they limit you to similar choice of Pokemon as everyone else will get + few occasional strokes of good luck, but that's just me. On the other hand, they will make you fall in love with some Pokemon you used to have no opinion on, at best. Honestly, I've only completed one Nuzlocke - an Emerald one, because I was doing a comic on it which made me loyal to it, but even that's water under bridge now. Most of the other ones... are stuck, as I can't bring myself to either delete the or find enough will to finish them. This usually happens when my fave Pokemon dies... I had my Ralts evolve into a Gardevoir - I prefer that form, it serves me well against the dragon types in the newer games, too. Thank you for the suggestions! All smiley had to die because of the glitch. |

Do you tend towards third versions, then, or was that just Emerald? |
Well, I do suppose I get too extreme from time to time. I either play too casually (I rarely breed in order to get mons, and most of my competitions are with Showdown...) or, when doing a nuzlocke, I add too many rules.
As for the Pokemon... well, I only reprise my catches from nuzlockes if I really like them. Drifloon is one such example. It's worth noting that Pokemon X is great for nuzlockes, because of the varity of Pokemon you can get. For example, you can get things like Pikachu, Marill, Litleo... early on, rather easily... those may not be much usually, but in a nuzlocke, they are considered great catches. What about you? Do you like doing nuzlockes? Have you done any? |
Welcome to the Community! And I agree, X and Y are really good games for Nuzlockes. If you want to find some more challenges, you can head over to the Challenges Forum right here!
