I'm assuming you know what a Nuzlocke is, so I'll keep this brief as I can. Basically, I tweaked the rules a bit due to SW/SH's overworld encounter system. It's still that the first Pokemon on a route that I encounter is the one I catch, but this time I have a little bit of a choice in what I can catch due to the gameplay overhaul. Also, each section of the Wild Area counts seperately from the others. What, did you think I'd only give myself one WA encounter?
I've played for three days, and this is what the results were.
Day One: Oops
Day 2: Room for Improvement
Day 3: Kabu's Massacre

Spoiler:
I started my journey, creating a new Gloria (because who really cares about Victor? Gloria's where it's at.
Chose Scorbunny because aww who can say no to it
Wind up catching a Nickit on R1 and a Chewtle on R2
Then it's time for Wild Area
First encounter is a Joltik
Not wanting to murder the thing with Scorbunny I switch in Chewtle
I forgot Joltik is an Electric-type and paid dearly
Then I attempted to use Nickit
Joltik is also a Bug-type and uses Bug Bite for OHKO
Panic.exe
Sends in Scorbunny angrily and blasts the thing with Ember
Doesn't die
mfw I could've just done that from the start and Nickit and Chewtle wouldn't have died: 😣
Catches Joltik (should have named it TPK)
Proceeds to catch a Seedot, a Mudbray, and a Snorunt
Attempts some raids to get EXP candy
Snorunt gets killed versus a raid Pidove
Anger intensifies as I quit for the day

Day 2: Room for Improvement
Spoiler:
Storms route 3 and catches nothing
Enters Galar Mine 1 and catches a Woobat
Seedot evolves into Nuzleaf, luckily
Leaves the cave and catches an Eevee on Route 4
I now have a squad
Bede Ego Crush Count - 1
Get to Turffield City
Finds the almighty Leaf Stone
(PS: Did you guys realize how busted Grass-types can be in this game? That Leaf Stone can give you a Stage 2 before the first Gym. In this case, it was Shiftry. Back in my last Shield playthrough, it was Vileplume. It's great.)
Burns down Milo's gym with newly evolved Raboot
Puts down Switch thinking that today was a great day and my troubles are in the past
oh how wrong I was

Day 3: Kabu's Massacre
Spoiler:
Races to Hulbury accidentally killing a Dottler
Gets the Toxel from the nursery
It's level 1
BENCHED
Gets to Hulbury and hooks a Chinchou... which I also accidentally kill
Joltik electrocutes all of Nessa's gym trainers while Shiftry takes on the swim champ herself
Gets badge
Goes to Galar Mine 2 and catches a Barboach
Bede Ego Crush Count - 2
Catches Sudowoodo at Motostoke Outskirts
Time to fight Kabu.
Now, something I will say is that Kabu, as a Gym Leader, always annoyed me. He's the first real difficulty spike, and the first trainer as far as I know of to use a team of only fully-evolved (Stage 1, anyway) Pokemon in Galar. Last time, I was spamming Revives in order to stay alive. I can't do that here, so I swap out Shiftry for Sudowoodo. That was mistake number one. Number two is, I forgot to swap Joltik for Barboach. All later mistakes... well, you'll see here.
So, fights Ninetales with Mudbray
Gets burned by Will-O-Wisp and caught in Fire Spin on two successive turns
Kills the darn thing with Bulldoze
Kabu sends out Arcanine
Intimidate
Now effectively at ATK -2
Switches to Woobat
Doesn't realize RK9 has bite
panic
It doesn't kill
Switches to Raboot
Gets bitten
Uses X-Attack for stronger Double-Kicks
Gets bitten again
I can take another bite
KABU FREAKING CRITS]
ded.avi
Angrily switches in Sudowoodo and Dynamax-two Rock Tomb-SLAUGHTER the doggo, but not before another Will-O-Wisp burns fake tree boi
Centiscorch comes out and Gigantamaxes
a Rockfall later he's at low-ish HP
Flutterby chips Sudowoodo down though
I switch to Eevee to heal
Forget Eevee can't tank for crap
ded.avi 2
Switch to Mudbray to cure burn
Forgot Mudbray was at low HP
ded.avi 3
Switches back to Sudowoodo and uses ROCK BLAST
Centiscorch finally goes down.
