    Y'know what? Sod it.
    Let's go again (because when you start dreaming of your pokemon dying/almost dying, you know you need to take a break from Nuzlocke)

    Username: waters_echo
    Game: Fire Red
    Pokemon to be used: Rattata (2), Pidgey (2) [HM slave Bulbasaur + HM slave ?]

    ---
    And would I be allowed to catch some random unneeded extras so as to be able to get flash?
    Ten pokemon needed to get flash, and... 2+2(3?)+1(+1?) equals... not ten.

    Alright, I'll add you to the challengers list again. And, yes, you can catch any Pokemon that are required for whatever purpose you need; just don't use them in battle ever.

    At one point, someone (that guy with the growlithe on the SS.Anne) used roar and pulled out my Bulbasaur (who I carried around at the back of the team. This has been rectified and won't happen again.)
    I promptly started using tackle to waste moves until they fainted it (It took the man something like... four-five moves before he used ember. What.) But Considering that one attack took over half it's health before it roared, and Bulbasaur is level 5 to the growlithe's... 15+?, you can tell how much difference Bulbasaur made. None. Once Bulbasaur fainted we swapped back and knocked the growlithe out.

    Anyhow.
    Started, and chose bulbasaur as our starter (using an RandPokeGenerator). Named him Bulbasaur.
    As you can tell by the fact that he's level five still, we magnificently managed to lose the first fight. We didn't do it on purpose, but whatever.
    Did pokeball sidequest. No fighting for Bulbasaur.
    Caught the first four pokemon we met:
    Machigga the Modest Run Away rattata [M]
    Davey the Naughty Keen Eye pidgey [M]
    Kaula the Calm Keen Eye pidgey [F]
    Lauren the Adamant Guts rattata [F]

    I love this lineup.

    Lauren the Raticate
    Lv44- F- Adamant- Guts
    - Hyper fang
    - Dig

    Machigga the Raticate
    Lv43- M- Modest- Run away
    - Hyper fang
    - Focus energy
    - Pursuit
    - Shock wave

    Kaula the Pidgeot

    - Aerial ace (She needs all the STAB she can get- her Attack stat sucks.)
    - Sand attack
    - Quick attack
    - Gust

    Bulbasaur- BULBASAUR- Lv5 (Why am I still carrying him?)
    5- Meowth- Lv10 (And let me tell you, having a pokemon with a number for a name is MIGHTY confusing)

    Currently facing off against Silph Co.

    You're back on the active list. Just a little tip: you might want to consider grinding to Lv15. It's always helped me.
