Can you imagine how boring and time consuming it is to make your own processor for a computer? So many nights that I meant to post here, but hrgh... fingers hurt.
I can honestly say that I failed. Sadly. On my own additional rules at least.
Anyhow - I shall copy/paste from my logs, just to tell you the small adventure of Rewy. All of them can be read on my tumblr too though. I'll add links to the particular posts.
Oh and... I had started the game, got all the way to first gym and only then re-read the rules:
...go catch five more in the first patch of grass you walk into. After you've got your six pokemon, you must use the Wonder Trade and trade all six of them...
So... uh, I went with a Nuzlocke in mind and only caught one per area and so on... So if it disqualifies me instantly, feel free to poke me and I'll make this vanish.
Been meaning to do this already for awhile. So I cleared out my old file. Even though I had already planned to get National Dex with it, but meh. Not worth it for me.
I’ll update these in intervals. Will probably be liveblogging these and playing all night.
So, here goes:
Started the game. I chose myself to play as the girl, because CLOTHES.Uh… oh right, playing in Japanese since I wanted some element of surprise to play with. Not playing on Set mode though, that’s too scary for now.
Woop-de-doo… Named myself Rewy.
Spoiler:
Santalune City - Fennekin (level 5)
Picked myself a Fennekin - because my trainer ID ended in 4. (1-3 Chespin, 4-6 Fennekin, 7-9 Froakie, 0 my choice.) Named him “kaku” with katakana and went to battle Shauna, since you can’t WT before you have 2 pokemon.
Had myself a run about by talking to mom and giving her the letter. Then I left off to the great Journey. What will it be full of? Lots of trades I bet.
Anyhow… Something I’ve noticed a lot of let’s players ignore is that you can buy pokeballs before the “training lesson”. Went to buy 5 of them from the tiny shop. And ran over the bridge to my first encounter…
Route 2 - Pidgey (level 3)
Caught, balled, something like that. Then I sent it off… And… and… AND… !!
Oh-mygod-godgod! Someone traded me a Mudkip! Aaah! It’s so adorable. But this is what I was afraid of… Boop - it’s level 1, but it has some crazy moves on it. o-o
Mudkip - “Seraphim”
Level 1 - Torrent
Avalanche
Curse
Mirror Coat
Mud Bomb
Oh well not too bad. Let’s see what I get from sending off my starter.
Bye bye “Kaku”.
Well… this I didn’t expect.
Slowpoke - ” ??? “
Level 1 - Oblivious
Curse
Yawn
Tackle
Sort of sad, since I can’t Slowking him. I can’t trade with anyone/myself in the generation. Oh well, Slowbro will be awesome. Maybe if he’ll survive I’ll take him to Hoenn with me.
Anyway. Time for some training in the grass.
… (level 5 attained for Seraphim)
And moving onto the First trainer battle. Ermehgerd it’s a Zigzagoon. So cute! So mean. Anyhow.
It was rather close, since He kept using Tail Whip. Eep.
Oh well, no bodies. No death.
Alrighty! I got jumped by Shauna who wanted to follow behind me. That’s a bit creepy. But she’s healing me up. When I really need it. Anyway. Let’ see what I’ll get.
Santalune Forest - Pansear (level 4)
Nicknamed him “Mitete”… I think. And I sent him off… For a… a… Stunfisk.
RULE ALERT!
Pokemon that I receive must be below the highest level pokemon of the Next Gym leader.
It was level 31. …Why~… I would’ve loved to troll a few trainers with that. Okay, sending him off…. Dun dun dunn….
Mareep - “Tesla”
Level 1 - Static
Tackle
Growl
Well… uh… welcome aboard? I guess. I mean, I’ll try to avoid using Megas and stuff unless the opposing trainer will use them. Meaning I’ll only use them in the Tower, Lysander Labs and Champion fight.
Yaaay! I made it through the forest. Leveled up the pair of water derps and arrived to Route 3. I got my oh-so-useful Adventure Rules and…
Eeep! It’s time for another pokemon!
Route 3 - Dunsparce (level 5)
..I just… can you guess how long I had to once look for one of these for a body style challenge on my Heart Gold? AGES.
Mrgl hrgl…
Anyhow. Caught him and named him “Uta”.
Who do I get? Who? Who? Oh dear a Klefki… Oh dear… What level is it? What…
NOOOOO! It’s level 36… ;__; I’ve always wanted to use one. Curses. Re-trading.
A gloom? Eh…. Level 30. Another high level ;__;
A Flabébé. Oooh…! It is a female! It is level 8! YES!
Flabébé - “Fiona”
Level 8 - Flower Veil
Tackle
Vine Whip
Fairy Wind
Alright! Woop!
I decided to dodge the trainers here and go through the city and then to that side route! Because catching pokemon is fun. But Wonder Trading pokemon is even more fun!
Route 22 - Psyduck (Level 6)
Yay! I set his name as “Nyaa”. Why? I don’t know, but just because. Let’s see who do I get from this…
*drumroll*
Zorua - “Loki”
Level 1 - Illusion
Tackle
Growl
OH MY GOD THANK YOU RANDOM SPANISH PLAYER! THANK YOU!
Now that that gym’s done. Woop level limit is up to.. 25 !!
It’ll be a moment before that’s done, but… There’s the craziest drag through the game. Really. Boosted exp will make this hell.
I won’t be keeping the Exp.Share on unless I end up having to level something from level 1 to over 40’s.
And - I can’t box anyone. ó-ò;
Anyway. Time for a new pokemon and a trade.
Route 4 - Combee (Level 6)
Oh god why. It’s a male one. I actually named it “Sorry” in basic latin alphabet, because I’m really sorry to who gets it.
Well, let’s trade.
O__O Oh… my god… Oh god… HOLY CRAP?!
A SHINY GIBLE! LEVEL 1 FEMALE
JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL!!!!
I think I need to take a moment to calm down from that.
Part 5½ - [link]
Spoiler:
Okay… Now that I’ve recovered from that Shiny Gible trade.
Wow…Also it had 4 Perfect IVs. Jebus.
I basically ran through the rest of the Route 4 to Luminose City. I picked up one or two items, Antidote or something.
Got TM 27 - Return. I think it was 27, maybe? Uh… Then I battled Fancy Prof. Sycamore. I picked Charmander for Charizardite X (Which I’d really really want to trade for the Y version.)
Luminose City - Charmander (Level 10)
Anyway… what do I get?
Ooo… Helioptile. Never used one, but it’s been intriguing me. It was on my last play through too. Might use one day. But for now it’ll wait for someone to die. (I’d maybe change it for my Slowpoke, but I don’t want to kill things for the sake of things.)
Good morning. Or what ever the time of the day is for you. I didn’t do much after last night’s final post. I went to play in bed for awhile to advance the plot.
I left the lab after picking up some Luxury Balls from the second floor and False Swipe from one of the assistants. Then I met Lysandre a few times and ran about the city. Had my hair done! Yay!
Okay after all that I headed to Route 5. And got jumped by some weirdo in a pink suit… and a Lucario. Jeez, what is this world going to. I’m not even flattered.
Route 5 - Pancham (level 10)
This encounter was literally the first bush I set my foot into after I saved. (I usually save after leaving city.) I named him “Papu” - means Bean in Finnish - and Wonder Traded him off…
Ummm no, I can’t use that high level Wobbuffet. Amgh a Poliswag! Another level 31… ;__;
Eevee… level 1. Well okay… *looks at the already amassed Eevee army in Bank* I guess…Off to the box with you. I’ll decide what to do when the time comes.
And... hummm I think that was where I sort of left off.
I did play on, writing more or less to a notepad what I was doing. I managed to get all the way to uh... Korrina's gym, but the first trainer there murdered my team which was already at the level limit there. So..
I lost the challenge.
And for now, I don't have time since I have to get a working game done by Spring for a Showroom event at Uni. Thank you and Goodbye for awhile again.

On first route I am going to catch 45 pokemon, just so I can save pokemon from other game, will not use these pokemon I trade over just storing them.
Pokecenter allowed
Allowed to retrade mons I have received all ready.
Allowed to catch and store legends and shinies
-Started and named myself, Chase(whatttttttttttttttttttt)
-Picked Torchic as my starter for funsies and named him Tom
-Caught 5 mons
-Wonder traded then and Torchic away and got: Taillow, Zigzagoon, Chinchou, Caterpie, Ralts, and Wingull!
-Beat Roxanne and traded away Ralts for a Carvanha
-Chinchou died, wonder traded him away for a Roseila.
-Beat Brawly and wondertraded Zigzagoon away for a Natu
-Beat Wattson and wondertraded Wingull away for a Shuppet
Current team: Roselia, Butterfree, Carcanha, Swellow, Natu, Shuppet
Picked a Torchic as my first pokemon, and named him Tortuna
Proceeded to get potions and beat May.
When and caught pokemon to wondertrade.
I received
Wingull Level 3
Ralts Level 4
Plusle Level 12
Got poochyena, but I had one, so I retraded
Taillow Level 6
Chinchou Level 25
Got Zigzagoon twice, but I had one, so I retraded
Feebas Level 1
Proceeded to help man in forest and get EXP share, I am using this.
I had forgotten to trade away if it dies, so I am now playing by that rule, I was only through first Gym when I noticed.
SO I beat the first and second gym, and beat my rival pretty easy.
More updates to come
I discovered that my N.8 Zigzagoon has no moves that do damage so I have been using nearly exclusively the N.10 Poochyena. His Ice Fang absolutely destroys all of the early bug types and flying types! :D Only now that he's above N.10 he disobeys everything... :(
I caught a Zigzagoon on route 104 and wonder traded it for a N.16 Slakoth (ENG) named "SlEEPYBUM." I replaced the N.3 Zigzagoon in my party for it. In the Bois Clémenti (Petalburg Woods) I caught a Silcoon and traded it for a N.19 Surskit (ENG).
I'll stop for today as I get out of Bois Clémenti, and this is my current party:
Poochyena fainted due to disobedience and just simply not doing anything, so I wonder traded him for.... another Zigzagoon :( This one is N.8 (Japanese). At least it obeys! (for now...)
Only in the first battle I use this Zigzagoon it faints due to Shroomish sucking so much life. Swinub ended up fainting the Shroomish and I traded the Zigzagoon for a Drifloon N.45 (Japanese)! :O Obviously not going to use him until I get a few badges for disobedience reasons... But still I was impressed with the Wonder Trade!
I've decided to make Swinub the leader of my party now, and its ice-type moves serve just as good of a purpose as my traded Poochyena's ice fang!
...Until it gets critted by a Lotad and faints too :'( I'm really sad about this one as I have never levelled a Swinub or Poliswine... But I can always do that later! For now I traded it away for a Masquerain N.26 (Japanese). So I can't use it either for a few gyms... Matter of fact the only usable Pokémon left in my party are Electrike and Goomy! As soon as Goomy hit N.9 I rushed to the gym to try and raise the level cap. Only by the time I beat the trainers in the gym, Goomy was already 11 and disobedient. So I ended up using Drifloon to try and take the gym which was an absolute MESS. For a solid 20 moves the thing didn't listen to me. Then when it did, the leader's Sturdy ability kept her Pokémon alive! The damn thing even fell asleep. Slakoth evolved into Vigoroth. After the gym battle, I traded off the N.3 Zigzagoon (English) for a N.1 Snivy (Japanese), which I promptly replaced the Masquerain in my party with.
Onto the next route I caught a Whismur and traded it for a Shelmet N.1 (Japanese) which I replaced the Zigzagoon in my party with.
So after the first gym and exploring the next route my party includes:
Goomy N.13
Electrike N.11
Drifloon N.45
Snivy N.9
Shelmet N.1
Vigoroth N.18
IN BOX:
Masquerain N.26
Surskit N.19
Zigzagoon N.14
I like this! It's similar and different to the woderlocke, so I will play this!
