SUON'S POTTERLOCKE CHALLENGE
ON POKMON PLATINUM



I restarted this game twice already. In both cases, my first Pokmon (Bidoofs) fainted almost immediately after catching them, causing me to black out.

PROLOGUE: THE DURSLEY ERA


Spoiler:

No magic allowed! Don't use any Special moves and no sorting yet, so Pokemon can all fight on one team.

As always, I start this game by choosing a boy and naming myself SUON. My friend/rival's name is TOM.

At Route 201 we meet Professor Rowan and his assistant, Dawn. He offers us a Pokmon to start a journey with. I refuse his offer, but he insists that I at least use the Piplup to catch my first Pokmon with. So, after some more introductions and finally receiving some Pokballs, I manage to catch my first Pokmon:


Neville the Bidoof
Met at level 3 on route 202

I catch two more Pokmon:


Ron the Kricketot
Met at level 3 on route 201


Hermione the Starly
Met at level 2 at Lake Verity

I train all three of them (Ron can only attack with Bide. Very risky and therefore used a lot of swapping, but I managed without letting him faint) and Ron evolves at level 10 in a Kricketune.

We reach Jubilife City, receive a Town Map and the Poketch, and meet Looker. Then we head north, out of the city, and catch two more teammates.


Lucius the Budew
Met at level 4 on route 204


Luna the Psyduck
Met at level 4 in Ravaged Path

Unfortunately, Lucius only knows a Special Attack move, so for now I can only train him by swapping out until we get our first badge.

Since we can't go further north, I go back to the city and head east. Here I battle against rival TOM, but without problems. I also catch two more Pokmon:


Severus the Shinx
Met at level 4 on route 203


Dolores the Zubat
Met at level 5 in Oreburgh Gate

I make it to Oreburgh, but can't battle the Gym yet. First, I have to find Roark, the Gym Leader. I find him in the mines, where I also catch my 8th partner:


Olympe the Geodude
Met at level 7 in Oreburgh Mine

I can't use any special attacks against Roark, so Luna and Lucius have no advantage. I decide to train first at route 207 and come up with a strategy. Maybe I'll catch a Machop. My first encounter, however, is:


Ginny the Ponyta
Met at level 6 on route 207

Not too bad either. But now I don't have any heavy hitters to beat Roark with ease. So, I guess I'll just have to use some luck.



THE GYM BATTLE

My team: Neville, Ron, Hermione, Luna, Severus, Olympe
His team: Geodude, Onix, Cranidos

I start with Severus against his Geodude, using Intimidate to lower it's attack. Then, I switch to Ron. The Rock Throw Ron receives does about 40% damage.

I use 3x Growl to lower it's attack even more and heal when necessary. Now, the Rock Throw don't hurt too much anymore. I give an X Attack to Ron, heal one more time, and start with Fury Cutter.

After 5 successful hits, Geodude faints. Ron has 7HP left, but healing would've ment that Fury Cutter lost its build up power.

I keep Ron in the ring when Roark chooses Onix, hoping Ron is fast and strong enough to OHKO him. And indeed, one Fury Cutter is enough to slay Onix.

Roark sends out Cranidos. I decide to swap Ron now, before his luck runs out, and send out Olympe.

Cranidos is way faster, but only uses Pursuit. Olympe's Rock Throws do more damage, and therefore we win the first badge without any casualties!


I'm really enjoying this so far, but that's probably since nobody died yet. I'll play a bit more tonight.

“You know,” said Arthur, “it’s at times like this, when I’m trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I’d listened to what my mother told me when I was young.”
“Why, what did she tell you?”
“I don’t know, I didn’t listen.”

SUON'S POTTERLOCKE CHALLENGE
ON POKMON PLATINUM




1. THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE


Spoiler:

Sorting begins! From here on out, Pokemon can no longer switch out for those in different houses.



And the sorting begins!

GRYFFINDOR
Neville the Bidoof
Dolores the Zubat
Ginny the Ponyta

+15 points for Gryffindor

Huffelpuff
-

Ravenclaw
Ron the Kricketune
Hermione the Starly
Lucius the Budew
Severus the Shinx
Olympe the Geodude

+25 points for Ravenclaw

Slytherin
Luna the Psyduck

+5 points for Slytherin

Interesting...

We head to the Valley of Windworks to catch our next Pokmon. We run into a Shellos, but I wasn't really paying attention and had Ginny out. Hoping to be able to do some damage, I tackle it, but Shellos immediately replies with a Water Pulse. Ginny survives, merely, but we have to run. No catch here.

I try to go back to heal, but bad luck hits me. A Buizel appears, with my injured Ginny still out. I run, but Buizel uses Pursuit and kills Ginny without mercy...

Rest In Peace

Ginny
Level 6 - 10

-5 points for Gryffindor

I decide to train a bit, before battling Team Galactic, and after a while Neville evolves in a Bibarel, Hermione in a Staravia and Severus in a Luxio.

BATTLING TEAM GALACTIC


I defeat the Galactic Grunts with ease, and then challenge Commander Mars.

My team: Neville, Ron, Lucius, Dolores, Severus, Olympe
Her team: Zubat, Purugly

I only needed Olympe. She crushed both Zubat and Purugly with her rockhard body.

+10 points for Ravenclaw

I continue my way, and catch 2 new partners:


James the Shellos
Met at level 9 on Route 205

+5 points for Huffelpuff


Arthur the Buneary
Met at level 11 in Eterna Forest

+5 points for Huffelpuff

Now, with a Chansey which heals me after each battle on my side, this forest could be a great place to train, but the exp isn't that good. There are some trainers though, but that turned out to be even worse. Especially the Pachirisu...

Rest In Peace

Dolores
Level 5 - 13


Neville
Level 3 - 16

-10 points for Gryffindor

They had to help each other out, since, well, those are the rules. Unfortunately, they couldn't handle electricity well.

So I fled out of the forest and catch 2 new Pokmon east of Eterna City:


Harry the Chingling
Met at level 14 on route 211

+5 points for Slytherin


Carlo the Meditite
Met at level 14 in Mt. Coronet

+5 points for Slytherin

THE GYM BATTLE


My team: Ron, Hermione, Luna, Severus, James, Harry
Her team: Turtwig, Cherrim, Roserade

I start with Ron, and finish with Ron. I can write a whole lot about thrilling events, but fact is, Ron just soloed this. Again, he doesn't miss Fury Cutter, building up incredible power and winning our second badge.

+10 points for Ravenclaw

SUON'S POTTERLOCKE CHALLENGE
ON POKÉMON PLATINUM




2. THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS


Spoiler:


A basilisk is running around petrifying students! Any Pokemon afflicted with the SLEEP condition in battle must be boxed at the end of the battle, and cannot be taken out until the 3rd gym badge is obtained.

With the 2nd badge in my pocket, I head to the Team Galactic Building and start beating up Grunts. Unfortunately, one's Kadabra turns out to be very troublesome, and kills my beloved Hermione with a powerful Psybeam!

Rest In Peace

Hermione
Level 2 - 20

-5 points for Ravenclaw

Hurt, but more determined then ever, we continue our way.

BATTLING TEAM GALACTIC


My team: Olympe, Ron, Lucius, Luna, Harry, Arthur
Her team: Zubat, Skuntank

Once again, this is a Olympe game. Her Rock/Ground typing is too strong for Jupiter's Pokémon. As a reward, Olympe evolves in a Graveler!

+10 points for Ravenclaw

I get a bicycle and can go south now. On the bridge are a lot of trainers, perfect for some leveling. But, very unexpected, we had to say farewell to another valuable team member:

Rest In Peace

Severus

The Ponyta from one of the trainers decided to totally ignore its -1 attack stat, and OHKO'd Severus with a Flame Wheel.

-5 points for Ravenclaw

But, they say when one door closes, another one opens, and I catch a new team member on the same route.


Hagrid the Machop
Met at level 19 on route 206

+5 points for Huffelpuff

Not much later I meet with Dawn, who gives me an Item Finder App and, most importantly, a VS. Seeker. This is definitely a valuable item if I want to keep rotating my team.

In the grass patch before Hearthome City I catch another team mate:


Bellatrix the Ralts
Met at level 17 on route 208

+5 points for Gryffindor

After Harry and Carlo, Bellatrix is my 3rd Psychic-type. That doesn't normally happen to me in Nuzlockes... Let's see how I'm gonna use them in my team.

I do a lot of training using the VS. Seeker, and Lucius, happy fellow as he is, evolves in a Roselia. I accidentally overlevel Luna (Slytherin), and therefore she'll be benched for the next gym match. And unless things change dramatically in the future, I think Arthur is gonna be nothing more than my HM Slave.


THE GYM BATTLE


My team: Ron, Lucius, Olympe, James, Hagrid
Her team: Duskull, Haunter, Mismagius

I don't have any super effective moves I can use, so I'll just have to rely on pure force. I start of with Lucius and a GrassWhistle, which hits at the first try. I set up a few Growths and then hit with Giga Drain. Duskull faints immediately. Haunter doesn't, but it's close. She uses a Confuse Ray, and then heals the second round. Despite confusion, I use another Growth during her healing turn, and use Giga Drain again, this time KOing Haunter. Also Mismagius can't fend off Lucius' powerful Giga Drain, and the third badge is therefore mine!

+10 points for Ravenclaw

ON POKÉMON PLATINUM




3. THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN


Spoiler:


Sirius Black is on the loose and all Hogsmeade trips are banned! The PokeMart cannot be used until the next gym badge is obtained.

I've got 3 badges now and new rules are into play. But of course, I forgot to plan and never went to the shop before I got the badge...

I continue my way. In the gate East of Hearthome I get surprised by Rival Tom. I still have Lucius first, which means I can fight with Ron and Olympe too, and win the fight without any casualties.

On route 209 I fail to catch a new partner since I only run into dupes (I have a bit of an unwritten rule that after 3, 4 dupe encounters in a row, I can't catch anything in that route). In the Lost Tower however, I do find a new Pokémon:


Nick the Gastly
Met at level 19 in the Lost Tower

+5 points for Gryffindor

Everything seems to go pretty well. I beat a few trainers, and catch 2 more Pokémon:


Dobby the Unown (R)
Met at level 21 in the Solaceon Ruins

+5 points for Ravenclaw


Sirius the Scyther
Met at level 19 on route 210

+5 points for Huffelpuff

But it doesn't last long until tragedy strikes yet again. And entirely my fault. Somewhere in my mind I thought I wasn't supposed to change my lead Pokémon in Trainer battles (rules for the next chapter) and therefore still had Lucius out. And then I ran into a double battle against a Ponyta and a Rapidash...

Rest In Peace

Lucius
Level 4 - 29

-5 points for Ravenclaw

Lucius was such a happy fellow and a vital member of the team. This run is certainly getting harder and harder.

At route 215 I get lucky with a single Pokéball:


Minerva the Abra
Met at level 19 on route 215

+5 points for Gryffindor

I'm almost in Veilstone City now, just one battle left. A double battle...

Rest In Peace

James
Level 9 - 26

-5 points for Huffelpuff

The double battles in this game are killing us. Literally! I could only use Hagrid, Severus and James against the 6 Pokémon in this battle. James was not strong enough to survive and sacrificed his life to assure a win.

I did reach Veilstone with a new Pokémon, however. Hagrid evolved in a Machoke.


THE GYM BATTLE


My team: Sirius, Hagrid, Harry, Luna, Ron, Olympe
Her team: Meditite, Machoke, Lucario

To be honest, I did remember which Pokémon she would use, but not what levels. I actually thought they would be of a little lower level, otherwise I would have trained a bit better.

Anyway, I started the fight with Sirius and OHKO'd her Meditite. She sends out Machoke, which surprised me and got me thinking that it probably knows a Rock attack, so I swapped to my own, Hagrid. I time Revenge and Seismic Toss right to KO his Machoke. Her last Pokémon, Lucario, uses one Force Palm, which leaves Hagrid with 3HP, but our Revenge OHKO's Lucario, enough for badge #4!

+10 points for Huffelpuff

SUON'S POTTERLOCKE CHALLENGE
ON POKMON PLATINUM




4. THE GOBLET OF FIRE


Spoiler:


Pick a Triwizard Champion from Hogwarts. This Pokemon must lead in every trainer battle, including the Gym Leader's. If this Pokemon dies, pick another Champion.

There's actually not much happening between the 4th and the 5th badge, except for some new routes to catch new Pokmon, and new trainers to battle. I still had Sirius out in the first trainer battle, so he's the Triwizard Champion.

The Pokmon I catch:


Molly the Houndour
Met at level 24 on route 214

+5 points for Ravenclaw


Garrick the Girafarig
Met at level 26 at Valor Lakefront

+5 points for Ravenclaw


Katie the Wingull
Met at level 25 on route 213

+5 points for Gryffindor


Fleur the Buizel
Met at level 23 on route 212

+5 points for Gryffindor


Alastor the Pichu
Met at level 21 in Trophy Garden

+5 points for Ravenclaw


Some great additions, especially type wise.

Sirius battles many trainers around, but I skip as many as possible for after the gymbattle. Nonetheless, Sirius is now of a way higher level. The grass on route 214 however, is a great place to train Luna, and she evolves in aGolduck.

After I've conquered the next gym, I'll probably be grinding like hell again...

In front of Pastoria's Gym, Tom challenges me to a battle. His Staravia is dangerous and almost killed both Sirius and Hagrid, but with some potions they barely survive. His other Pokmon are thankfully manageable.



THE GYM BATTLE


My team: Sirius, Hagrid, Harry, Luna, Ron, Katie
His team: Gyarados, Quagsire, Floatzel

Of course, I start off with Sirius. His Gyarados has Intimidate, so my attack is lowered by one stage. I decide to use 6 Double Teams and heal where necessary. Gyarados seems to possess excellent accuracy however, and keeos hitting me with Waterfall. I keep healing and Wing Attacking until it finally faints.

Sirius stays in battle against Floatzel, which is faster. Double Team finally pays off, because they never manage to get a hit with Ice Fang, while I keep attacking with Wing Attack.

Quagsire misses his first Rock Tomb, but one hit could possibly kill Sirius, so I swap to Hagrid, who easily gets the job done. Another victorious gymbattle, and finally a chapter without casualties!

+10 points for Huffelpuff

Unfortunately, after 57 hours and 39 minutes of playing, I failed this challenge... :(

Tragedy struck a few times in the "Order of the Phoenix"-chapter, where I wasn't allowed to use any items.

First, I did a lot of grinding after I got the 5th badge. The VS Seeker is a fantastic item for this, and so are some routes with decent Pokémon for experience. When I had a few teammembers up to a decent level, I continued to go north of route 210. Here is where I fought Ace Trainer Ernest and lost 3 of my Ace Pokémon:
- Garrick the Girafarig @lvl 34
- Molly the Houndoom @lvl 35
- Hagrid the Machoke @lvl 35

This meant I had to go back, get new Pokémon out of the PC, and go back to training again. After more hours of grinding, I went on and reached Celestic Town, where I fought against Team Plasma's Cyrus. I lost 3 Pokémon again:
- Bellatrix the Gardevoir @lvl 39
- Nick the Haunter @lvl 40
- Fleur the Floatzel @lvl 39

Now I'm at a point that I only have 2 or 3 decent Pokemon left, all from a different house, so I again need training. But, I'm a bit fed up with the routes and trainers I fought for hours and hours, and thought I could train at Iron Island. Just before Canalave City, I fight a fisherman with 4 Remoraid an a Gyarados, who kills Luna the Golduck @lvl34.

I proceed, but I totally forgot about Rival Tom, challenging me at the bridge in Canalave City. I had no change, especially not without items:
- Sirius the Scyther @lvl 42
- Olympe the Graveler @lvl 31
- Arthur the Buneary @lvl 31
- Carlo the Meditite @lvl 26
- Narcissus the Wooper @lvl 26
- Alastor the Pichu @lvl 25

I will restart this challenge, it's fun, but I won't get too detailed in my posts anymore since it feels like I'm the only one playing right now and I'm just spamming updates.
“You know,” said Arthur, “it’s at times like this, when I’m trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space, that I really wish I’d listened to what my mother told me when I was young.”
“Why, what did she tell you?”
“I don’t know, I didn’t listen.”

R.I.P.

I always heard Platinum was hard on Nuzlockes, but never tried it for myself. Looks like it lived up to its reputation. :(

For what it's worth, it was entertaining! (The Nuzlocke, that is, not the sudden death...)
