I've been meaning to update, but it kept slipping my mind. I haven't done a comic yet, but I plan to. (More for myself than anything, really, as I don't have a scanner... I might post one here and there, though.) Haven't gotten that far, but posting an update anyway.

Spoiler:
-Started game, named self Benji, chose Mudkip, named him Locke. (for Nuzlocke. Clever, right? ... I know.)
-Did all the boring beginning stuff, battled May and beat her quite easily.
-Did more beginning stuff.
-Finally collected my first Pokeballs and started out on my journey.
-Cussed my DS out when the first Pokemon I ran into as I started my journey was a Zigzagoon.
-Caught the Zigzagoon anyway and named him Ziggy. (I lack creativity in naming, sue me.)
-Continued on and the first Pokemon I saw on the next route was a Lotad.
-Caught the Lotad and named him Tadder.
-Entered the next town.
-Helped whats-his-face catch the Ralts.
-Continued on my way.
-Didn't catch a Pokemon on the next route on account of accidentally making the Marill faint. D:
-Entered the forest.
-Caught a Wurmple and named him Wiggles.
-Entered next route.
-Caught no one there, either.
-Wiggles evolved into a Cascoon.
-But then died on the bridge battling against the twins. It was a critical hit. RIP Wiggles. :[
-Entered next town.
-Took on the gym leader and won.
-Caught a Whismur and named him Wizzy.
-His life was short lived. During a "Uproar" gone wrong, his health got too low and he died before I could heal him. RIP Wizzy. :[
-Found another Whismur first encounter in the cave while rescuing Peeko. Named him Murphy after Murphy's Law to encourage me to be more careful. (So that I would make it to where his death "couldn't" happen and therefore "wouldn't". I'm lame
-Headed to the next place by boat. ~
-Trained a bit in the cave, catching a Geodude (was hoping for an Aron... what can you do? :/ ) and naming him Rocky.
-Currently training in the gym.

Current Team:

Locke the MUDKIP
Lvl 15
Tackle|Growl|Mud-Slap|Water Gun


Ziggy the ZIGZAGOON
Lvl 12
Tackle|Cut|Tail Whip|Headbutt


Tadder the LOMBRE

The LOST:

I've been doing the comic by hand because I fail at computer art. I like this particular one of when I lost Wizzy, so I'm posting it. (hopefully I'll have another to post with my next update)

Great news! I have decided to commence this challenge! On Black.

I will be using the 2 standard Nuzlocke rules. (faint=death, first time encounter per area pokemon only.) But I will also add these rules: No HM slaves, Battle style set, Nickname all pokemon, and I will remove the blackout=Game Over rule, because you can always try again with different pokemon. However, everybody in the blackout party will still DIE.

Also, this will be entirely in comic form! Rejoice!

Without further ado, here's the first comic:

(Kudos to whoever gets the Tepig's reference.)

Just beat the first gym. Doing well so far.

Well I finished Pokemon Black, so i decided to do a Nuzlocke on White. I am pretty sure I won't finish, since I sure died a ton while playing Black, but oh well, I guess I'll see how it goes. I'll be starting with Oshawott. I might be making comics if I can find my tablet, otherwise, text for now.

Update: Started the game. Picked Oshawott named it Wotter. Went on route 1 and caught a Lillipup named Lilly. A Patrat got a critical hit on Wotter and he fainted...off to a bad start.
Current Team:
Lilly (Lillipup) lvl 4

Fire Red Update!
After leaving Mt. Moon, I healed at Cerulean and went to Route 4 to catch a new Pokemon. Spearow, my first repeat! I grinded my team up to Lv17 and challenged Gary, winning with barely a scratch. Routes 24 and 25 were disappointing, yielding Caterpie and Weedle, respectively. I named them after J.K. Rowling and J.R.R. Tolkien but with the word fail implemented. (Not that they're bad writers, I was just bored).
I met Bill, then went south, catching Oddish on Route 5 (Heinrick). I made it to Vermillion, caught a Diglette (Molette) and realized I forgot to fight Misty.
Soloed Misty with Heinrick. Won.
I left for Vermillion, and soloed Surge with Molette.
Captured Spearow (Petera) and evolved J.K. Failing to Beedrill for cut.
I saved due to low power on Route 9. Haven't caught anything there, yet, but I don't have high hopes. Hoping for Voltorb on Route 10, though.

After playing around with the Chess Challenge I decided to throw my hand at the Nuzelocke, and I've been enjoying it so far and WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA none of my pokes have died yet because I'm awesome

This is what happens when I play, but don't post.




Aaaah, I haven't updated in forever! I'm afraid I can't provide a detailed synopsis of my journey, as I had last time. So, here's the low-down.
-Beat Morty using Juliet and her Confusion attack
-Vulcan evolves
-Juliet dies to a critical hit Ice Punch, courtesy of Cianwood Gym's Hitmonchan
-Thwart rockets and their Mahogany operation, catch Kaz the Red Gyarados
-Fight Pryce to the death, his Piloswine being especially annoying; Kaz fought valiantly and paid the ultimate price. On the bright side, I got my 5th Badge.
-Tracey soloes Chuck with great ease
-Catch Kenji the Horsea in Whirl Islands, due to the awesome "No Dupes" clause.
-Fen evolves via Friendship and evolves into a Togekiss, immediately after that.
-Vulcan and Tracey somehow beat the Olivine Gym by spamming Magical Leaf and Ember.
-Frosti, the Eevee, becomes a Glaceon, as I'll need something to beat Clair with.
-Off to Goldenrod, where I attempt to beat the Rockets.
-Kenji fights off the rockets and manages to evolve into a powerful Seadra, in the process.
-Fen dies to a critical hit selfdestruct from Petrel's Koffing.
-Team Rocket is defeated, on to Blackthorn.
-Vulcan and Tracey are grinded to Lv. 40, Kenji is Lv. 36 and Frosti, 33
While grinding, Vulcan encounters a Graveler, and it decides to use Selfdestruct ;___;. Sorry, did I say Selfdestruct? I meant CRITICAL HIT SELFDESTRUCT, just like the one that took the life of Fen. I watch the HP dwindle, as I know my bro from the Hoenn region is destined to fall. 1 HP. That's right. 1HP. ~fin de citation~
-The Battle begins

I already know Clair will be a huge problem for me, Vulcan has no dragon attacks and below average special defense, Frosti and Kenji, my best shots at killing her Dragons, are frail. Looks like it's up to Tracey. She begins with Gyarados, which makes me think I should have redeemed my Route 39 catch and tried for Magnemite, who would have been a huge help, here. The Gyarados chokes big time. All it does it use Dragon Rage, while I poisonstall it and heal. Magical Leaf provides the killshot and the mighty Sea Beast goes down. My next adversary is Dragonair. With the SET clause on, I have Frosti switch in for Tracey, only for it to be blasted with Fire Blast. It survives, but not with enough HP to survive another attack. I send in Kenji to take the Fire Blast. Except it isn't Fire Blast, it's Dragon Pulse, which brings Kenji to sub 50 HP. At this point, I am freaking out, pretty sure I'm about to lose it all. I switch in to KENYA THE FLY SLAVE, which gets hit with T-Wave, and then I heal Tracey, who comes back in after that. Tracey gets paralyzed, but it proceeds to pull its Ace in the Hole. LIGHT SCREEN. Now, Fire Blast only does 30 Damage, I still have about 18 Hyper Potions and 20 Full Heals, and Iron Tail does around 50% of its HP. I don't even care that I'm paralyzed. Dragonair falls, as the team is restored. Tracey is ready to take down another one of this girl's Dragonairs. EXCEPT IT ISN'T A DRAGONAIR. It's the mighty Kingdra, with three 90+ base power moves and smokecreen, the bane of all players, let alone nuzlockers. Light Screen+Toxic+Magical Leaf. Problem, Kingdra? I send out Frosti to deliver the dagger, and it takes a Dragon Pulse with great skill, and I keep it out, as this Dragonair lacks Fire Blast. The next Dragon Pulse decides to troll me and be a crit -__-. Meganium comes back in and stalls it out, as it had all of Clair's other Pokemon. Not a bad gym battle, if I do say so myself. Only 1 major casualty and a resounding victory that made statement (although idk if that matters in Pokemon), Until next time, nuzlockers.

The Team:
Spoiler:

Tracey (M) Lv. 41; good perserverance; Iron Tail/Light Screen/Magical Leaf/PoisonPowder
Kenji (M) Lv. 36; Loves to Eat; Surf/Dragon Pulse/Twister/Agility

On my FireRed Challenge, I'm still grinding for the E4. All 6 of my team are Lv.52, but I want them all at least Lv.55 before I give it a go - otherwise Gary's Lv.63 Blastoise might cause a few problems...

I traded it as an egg, as I didn't want my team to be entirely composed of the same, boring mons that it was composed of, last time.

I've just started this on LeafGreen. I'm nicknaming every Pokemon, not using HM slaves, and avoiding legendaries.

So far, I'm in the middle of Viridian Forest.

Pallet Town: Got Adam, a male Bulbasaur.
Won my first battle, with 1 HP to spare. *sweat*

Route 22: Crit'd a Mankey. T_T
Route 2: Caught Ellie, a female Rattata.
Viridian Forest: Caught George, a male Weedle.

Okay Imma make new posts now:

Spoiler:


Team Rocket Appears...
  • Caught a Zubat at level 8, named it 'Zuzu'
  • Started training her, but seeing how **** its stats were at level 12, I dumped her IN THE BOX
  • Easily defeated all the trainers
  • Took the Dome Fossil
  • Healed at Cerulean, went to Nugget Bridge
  • Forgot about the rival battle.. and my Mark died :C
  • Barely defeated Toru with the rest of my pokemon
  • Encountered an Ekans on Route 4, but didnt have any pokeballs
  • Bought some pokeballs
  • At the end of the nugget bridge, Bulby died with a Critical Hit :C
  • Caught a Pidgey at level 11 and named him 'Paulie'
  • Trained the hell out of all my Pokemon so no one else dies
  • Paulie evolved at level 18
So yeah... not a very good couple of plays these were...
When Bulby died... I was so sad. I cried for a while, honestly. I wanted to just restart the game so it never happened, but I saved. Then I wanted to restart the whole challenge to get my Bulby back.. but I didn't. So yer.
If I did a comic Bulby would be my Nuzlocke, following me around everywhere.
