ultra♀geek, this is the exact same challenge that you submitted yesterday, with a couple additions. It doesn't fix the limitation of it being only about one type. It's just too specific to let be a whole thread. And you still didn't specify if you were participating.

DelightfulRage, you didn't specify if you were actually participating in the challenge. However, I think you should rethink this challenge. Requiring people to evolve before they leave a route seems really extreme, especially when you're still early game and have to grind against Pokemon level 2-4 trying to get to say level 20 in the case of Rattata. It's a little bit too extreme in my opinion. I do like the idea of catching all Pokemon along the way, but you need another way to make that gimmick work.

TheBluKidThe, we already have a Randomized Nuzlocke which I am fairly certain can be played with the additional settings you mentioned. However, if this is not the case, then you also failed to specify if you were participating. You might want to write up a proper rules list too if you decide to follow up on this.

Braxien, as interesting as a Challenge based on Gmod might be, I'm afraid you failed to specify if you were participating in your own challenge. I also feel like it could use a but of work, as just requiring a selection of specific types and limiting the team to 4 Pokemon is pretty generalized, and no explanation is really given to make you understand how you are relating your game to Gmod. So the whole thing feels rather bland and generic. I suggest brainstorming a bit more before posting it again, but besides the participation thing it's passable.

midknightvortex, this isn't the place to solicit egg hacking for your Egglocke. As of now we don't have a thread for that challenge, but you're free to make one if you want to look at the rules and figure out what is needed to get a challenge approved.

ScoSap, your challenge needs to be more than a gimmicky Monotype. Just making someone use a certain type based on their sign isn't enough. Add some more rules based on each sign.

GenesectGalaxy, your challenge is extremely convoluted and has a ton of rules. The way it was written also makes it feel like it's a thread only meant for your journey, rather than a thread for anyone else who wants to play.

Hilbert, you didn't indicate that you were participating in your own challenge.

NeonGeaso, your challenge would not be unplayable inside of the current Nuzlocke Challenge, as long as you indicated that you had hacked the types. You also did not indicate that you were participating in your challenge.

mattastro91, your challenge looks sound, but you forgot to indicate that you were participating in the challenge.

ThePokeWorld, unfortunately I can't approve your first challenge. It's a nice idea but it just really isn't flushed out enough. I need more if I am going to approve a challenge based on Holidays, especially since most of the time holidays are reserved for event challenges. Try to make it a bit more interesting and maybe find a friend to proof read it. Better luck next time!

MckinkyMcormic, We don't really host discussion threads here. If you want to discuss the Egglocke Challenge, you can ask for ideas and opinions at Challenges Ideas & Dsicussion, or you can just look up some of the older Egglocke threads we have had and you can make a full challenge thread.

I've decided to try a PM-the-user approach to Unapproved Challenges. So this will be the last post here, at least for a while. It depends on how the new approach works out.

VaionShow, your rules can be applied to a normal Nuzlocke without intruding, and you didn't include yourself as a participant.
