Now, here's the first two parts I've already recorded! Not much progress (aka, didn't even get to the first gym), but part 2 sure is more exciting to watch, lol! Next update will likely have a gym battle, so stay tuned!

So I'm about 10 episodes late, but I started a nuzlocke of the "ultimate masochist rom," also known as Dark Rising...then got swept by the guy with the Lv. 30 fossil mons. After that, though, I started over and here we are.

I decided to do a Sigma Emerald Nuzlocke run, Link to the hack can be found here.

A couple of things to note, I know the Mightyena and Torchic both share the same Route capture, however I don't consider the starter pokemon as that specific route capture because your starter is a forced event. Secondly, If there is no picture of a route capture, It'll probably be because I've failed to capture on that route.

After taking advantage of possibly the cheapest strategy in the universe, I finished Dark Rising. It's still a terrible game and I'll probably never play it again.

So in a cruel twist of fate during my Y Nuzlocke, I ended up losing my starter...because a Lunatone crit him with Confusion. After that, I feared for the safety of my run since I severely lacked a Water type for the second gym. Sure, I had an Azurill in the PC, but I didn't want to raise it up. Luckily, with tons of grinding, Littlefoot carried and killed the monster known as Tyrunt and we can move on towards the infamous Reflection Cave.

It's about time to run another, official, Nuzlocke! I am going to play Ultra Sun and I've already started. Going to swap my Route 1 encounter with the event Rockruff gift. I was going to reset for a female starter this time as well (since I wanted to run Popplio), but got one on the first try!

Team:
"Tamara Rojo" Popplio LVL 11 - Hardy nature
"Ruffles" Rockruff LVL 10 - Jolly nature

I'll update this post later today when I've made some progress.

EDIT: Got to the Pokemart and obtained my event Rockruff.
