UPDATE #22: PREPARING FOR BATTLE
Spoiler:
Having finally reached the Indigo Plateau, there was nothing left to do but get the team ready for their toughest challenge yet: the Elite Four. Since the majority of the team were only level 41, and Lars and Persolus even lower than that, this would mean a whole lot of grinding. Equally important was the need to find some Heart Scales; if I wanted Lars to evolve into Mamoswine, I would have to teach him Ancient Power in Blackthorn City. This turned out to be a lot harder than I'd expected; I knew I could find Heart Scales by smashing rocks in Cianwood City, but for some reason, they're ridiculously rare. The only good point was the opportunity to battle lots of Krabby and Shuckle, which turned out to give a surprising amount of experience. Through a combination of smashing rocks and grinding Athlete Points at the Pokéathlon, I managed to get hold of not only seven Heart Scales — more than enough for what I was planning — but a Fire Stone for Leto.

With the Heart Scale farming out of the way, I relocated to Route 26 to grind in the grass. With Lars starting out at level 25 and Persolus at only level 21, this took some time, but the endeavour was productive, and it didn't take too long for Persolus to reach level 25 and evolve into Haunter. As for Lars, I decided that he should remain a Swinub for a while, specifically until level 49. This wasn't as much of a handicap as it might have been, as he learned Earthquake and Blizzard relatively quickly.

By the end of the long, long grind session, the team had all hit level 48; Scarlett had learned the ever-useful Dragon Dance, and Leto had learned his final level-up move, Flare Blitz. At this development, I used my Fire Stone and finally allowed Leto to evolve into my favourite Pokémon, Arcanine! Meanwhile, Lars had reached level 49 and learned Amnesia, which I hoped would help in the battles ahead; he then finally evolved into Piloswine.

Next, I took the team to Blackthorn City for some move tutoring. The Heart Scale farming paid off, as I discovered that Lars could learn Ice Fang alongside Ancient Power. Leto, meanwhile, I taught Extreme Speed and Thunder Fang, in order to cover his Water-type weakness and help deal with Will's Xatu. Finally, I performed a quick trade and let Persolus evolve into Gengar, then used my precious Thunderbolt TM on him, hoping that his high speed and special attack would allow him to quickly deal with Lance's Gyarados.

The team is ready: Kiba, Scarlett, Leto, Lars, Persolus and Terra. The Elite Four beckon.


UPDATE # 23: ELITE BEAT AGENTS!
Spoiler:
No putting it off any longer. It was time to face the Elite Four.

Will was up first. I led with Scarlett against his first Xatu, expecting to have to bring in someone else afterwards. My worries were unfounded, however, because my Dragon Dance-buffed Gyarados swept his entire team on her own. One down.

Next was Koga, who started with Ariados. I led with Kiba, whose massive Attack stat and type advantage let her take out the Bug-type in one hit before doing the same thing to Venomoth. I had to pull her out when Forretress came out, though, fearful of it using Explosion. To avoid this, I sent in Persolus, but Koga had other ideas — he withdrew Forretress and sent in Crobat, which worried me for a moment. However, I had already selected Persolus's Thunderbolt, and he took out the bat in one hit. Muk was up next and used Minimise, but it didn't make a difference; Persolus knocked it out with two Shadow Balls. Finally, Forretress returned to the battle, and decided to be annoying and use Protect. Persolus didn't care; he took it down with two Thunderbolts. Two down.

Kiba led the charge against Bruno, facing off against Hitmontop. I had a brief moment of fear when I realised that Hitmontop knew Counter, but Kiba one-shot it with Fly anyway. Bruno, apparently wise to my strategy, sent in Onix, so I replaced Kiba with Terra. She withstood an Earthquake and dealt with the snake with one Surf. Kiba returned to the battle to fight Hitmonlee, who used Swagger. This was to my advantage, however, because Kiba was holding a Persim Berry for this exact purpose. Buffed by the Swagger, my Crobat one-shot both Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan, despite the latter knowing two super-effective moves. I left Kiba in to fight Machamp, but I got careless and didn't remember that it knew Rock Slide until it hit Kiba with it. Fortunately, she held on and finished the battle by one-shotting Machamp too.

For Karen, I decided to lead with Lars, the Pokémon on my team with the highest Defence. Karen's Umbreon decided to be a pain and use Double Team, but Lars managed to take it out in three turns. Karen sent in Houndoom next; unwilling to risk Lars against its Flamethrower, I sent in Terra, who took it down with Earthquake. Next up was Vileplume, so I sent in Leto, who used his Cheri Berry to shrug off Stun Spore before well and truly incinerating it with Flare Blitz. Gengar came out next, so I sent in my own Gengar in order to avoid Focus Blast. Persolus turned out to be faster than his opponent and one-shot it before it could use Destiny Bond, which I'd been worried about. Finally, Scarlett took on Murkrow, and she took it out with one Ice Fang.

With the Elite Four defeated, all that's left to do is face Lance. Faced with this, I used one of my precious Rare Candies to elevate Lars to level 50, allowing him to evolve into Mamoswine!

Lance is going to be tough. Wish me luck.

Zeta keeps crashing on me and it's pretty annoying, to say the least. So I have to quit this Nuzlocke. I'll try another one:

Username: Blastin'TyruntZ
Version: Platinum 493 (enhanced version of platinum)
Challenge: Single

I'll start:
I had to pick which starter looked the most beautiful: Turtwig,Chimchar or Piplup.
Choosing Turtwig will get you a Dratini, Chimchar will score you a Gible anf for picking Piplup you'll have a Bagon. I went with Turtwig and got myself a Dratini! :3

Time for a quick update on my Pearl Nuzlocke! Haven't really been accomplishing much (Pokemon Go has kept me busy!) but it's something at least!

- Worked my way up Route 205 to Eterna Forest, catching a Buizel along the way.
- Partnered with Cheryl in the Forest and got through it, picking up a Buneary along the way.
- Got to Eterna City and went up to Route 211 to grind a bit. Caught Cleffa in Mt. Coronet (...) and then Meditite on Route 211 to add to the team!
- Beat Gardenia fairly easily with my Staravia.
- Hiked back to the Old Chateau to grab a Gastly, boxed it up fairly quickly but could use it as a good backup down the road.
- Took down Team Galactic in their hideout, again with some switching with Staravia's Intimidate to cut that Skuntank's attack.
- Went down Cycling Road to Route 206 and caught... a Kricketune. Oops.

Getting ready to head over to Hearthome City soon!

Team: Meditite, Grotle, Luxio, Geodude, Staravia, Bidoof (HM slave)
Box: Abra, Zubat, Magikarp, Kricketot, Buizel, Buneary, Cleffa, Gastly, Kricketune
Dead: None yet!

So I attempted a Nuzlocke in Pokémon Red Version. Failed after Brock in Mt. Moon. My team fell to one of the Team Rocket's Grunt's lv 16 raticate.

I skipped gen IV for various reasons and decided to start another one.
This time with Platinum version. So far only four pokemon I've caught died.

Rick the Starly at lvl 12

The dead:
Jenny the Bidoof @ lvl 6

Henry @ lvl 8 the Zubat
Artemis the Budew lvl 12

We'll see if I can wall Gardenia with my Starly.

OP has been updated, finally. I haven't really been posting/playing because my husband passed away at the beginning of October, and y'know, grief and stuff got in the way.
As soon as I know the answer to my question I will let you know what version of Kanto I am doing and update regularly. Thank you! :15:
Sorry for the extremely late reply. But yes, enhanced hacks are allowed, such as Blaze Black, etc., I'm not sure about Liquid Crystal, but if it's the generally the same story as the gen 2 games then it's good.
Due to my 3DS being stolen, I cannot continue my Pokemon Yellow nuzlocke. Could @volga take me off the solo challenger list?
Same as above, sorry for the very late reply. But I'm sorry to hear that. :(

Once upon a time, there was a certain stizh who liked to do challenges on PokeCommunity. He was pretty bad at video games, and somehow managed to win a nuzlocke with Persona themed mons. However, what this stizh failed to realize was that Persona 2 was a duology, and instead of moving straight to the second half of the show, he ended up being busy with work and making videos and generally just slacking off. But now this certain stizh has returned, ready to finish the fight against Ghetsis and Messiah's former goons, now made into Nyarlethotep's Goons. Let us begin the second half of our tale...and let's watch this stizh suffer even more than he did the first time, because we all know we like watching people lose valuable team members in nuzlockes.

Same rule applies as last time. All team members must be named after something from the Persona games. Characters, skills, Personas, it doesn't matter. However, I am banned from using names from my previous final squad. If I forget and use the names Reiji, Masao, Bufudyne, Pulinpa, Kohyru, or Aqua, I am subject to immediate failure of the locke, because just killing off my best team member is too lenient if I'm too stupid to actually use the same name twice.

Sorry for the extremely late reply. But yes, enhanced hacks are allowed, such as Blaze Black, etc., I'm not sure about Liquid Crystal, but if it's the generally the same story as the gen 2 games then it's good.
Liquid Crystal is, for the most part, the same. However, as far as I've seen, there are new things added to the story, like new rivals, another evil team, and a couple of other things.

Optional rules: No dupes, including evolution lines, static or gift encounters are there own encounters, places that have two areas allow for separate encounters (i.e. the water and land area of Azure Bay allow for me to catch a pokemon in both areas)

UPDATE
Spoiler:

Chose Froakie as my starter called him Carlisle. Caught Isabella the Zigzagoon on Route 2 and then caught Marcus the Panpour in Santalune Forest. Caught Alice the Azurill on route 3 and Roseali the Litleo on route 22. Used Roseali to beat Viola then caught a Flabebe on route 4 and continued grinding up the team. Beat Sycamore and chose Bulbasaur who I called Jacob. Moved to route 5 and caught Caius the Skiddo then on route 6 caught a Sentret called Charlie and caught the Snorlax on route 7 and called him Mike, who killed Isabella with a critical tackle. Followed up that catch with Esme the Roselia. Continued the grinding up of Mike who is the new member instead of Isabella and have just beaten Tierno and Trevor.
