Uhhhh how do I join this?

Okay here's whats I got so far.
Nuzclocke Challenge jornal:
*Started the challenge
*Went up to that Professor Rowan dude (I hate d/p/platinum.. but thats the rules I guess) and got myself a Turtwig. Named it Chuckles.
*Went to the next city (whatever that one is) and bought 5 Pokeballs. *Went to the next route and caught myself A PIDGEY! LEVEL 3!
*Encountered Bug catcher Clarence and won handily with Leon. (Pidgey)
*Whoa! Wild Kricketot appeared! I'll catch it! Oh no it got out! Alright pidgey, Use peck! *pecks* Alright take this Kricketot! Pokeball go!
*Caught that Kricketot.
Until the next post on my status..... the adventure continues....

Okay time for a new update. Here's whats up:
Last time I Got my Turtwig, caught a Pidgey and Kricketot, fought Bug Catcher Clarence and made way for whatever was next.

Okay... the adventure continues:
*Just taking a walk on the route im on... whatever that is.
*My pokemon are so far doing good.
*battle music starts* Whoa what the heck? Is that a Mewtwo? NO SILLY, ITS JUST A MAGIKARP.
*I sent out Turtwig
*Chuckles, lets see your Growl! (Nothing happened because Magikarp is lvl 7 and knows splash only.)
*Chuckles gets splashed by Magikarp.
*Chuckles uses tackle and I try a pokeball. Alright! A Magikarp just for me!
*Make my way throught the cave and on to Oreburgh city.
*I try my luck at Roark.... that was a bad idea. See ya Kricketot.
*Nurse Joy healed my pokemon but i'll miss that Kricketot. I barely knew him.
Okay, obviously I need to train. It's back to that cave to train.
Until the next status update....the adventure continues....

Hey Acedragonite? You said I was lucky to encounter that Gible in Wayward Cave?

I'm continuing the challenge as I speak, and my Gible just died to a Staravia. So yeah, maybe not so lucky after all, as my hopes of a Garchomp just belly-upped.

UPDATE #7
Okay, as I said above, I was making my merry way through the trainers on Cycling Road when all of a sudden a Staravia Quick Attacked my Sharkie... and knocked it out.
Epic crying session!
After therapy, I headed back through Eterna City to the Old Chateau. I encountered a Gastly in there, and captured it to be a replacement fifth team member. And guess what? It's another female! Sigh. This game just does not want me training male Pokemon...
Anyway, I nicknamed it Lady Spook and then began training it. I completed the Mira sidequest in Wayward Cave and beat up all the trainers scattered around the joint. I had a couple close calls along the way. A Ponyta's Flame Wheel brought Lady Spook down to a mere 3HP and I had to switch Psy Aye Ay in to finish the fight. And a Geodude Selfdestructed, bringing Harmony down to, wait for it... 1 HP!!! I was not willing to lose a second team member in one day so I switched in Psy Aye Ay to mop up once again. I also headed south to Route 207, where I beat up more trainers! Yay for repetitiveness! I got the Vs Seeker and Dowsing Machine from Dawn and found a couple items before entering Mt Coronet. Inside I encountered a Clefairy which I captured and named Clara, and Cyrus, who has some serious problems.
Anyway, that's it for today, with the next update tomorrow I'll finally reach Hearthome and hopefully challenge the third Gym there.

haha, lol that sucks man.
I'm not making fun of you though. Do you have a buddy to trade with so when gastly becomes a Haunter it can evolve into Gengar. I don't usually train trade evolves if i don't have someone to trade with.

Anyway, I just got Platinum and I'm playing that in Non-Nuzlocke so I'll probably get back to DP nuz after a while.

Yea I do, but I also have a second, very crappy DS that's literally almost in pieces. Lady Spook evolved to Haunter a couple minutes ago and I traded it over to my Heart Gold in my second DS to obtain Gengar. So i now have Lady Spook the Gengar on my team :)
 
"umm...if you lose, its game over unless Kricketot battled Roark alone, and how did you get a pidgey, you can only trade for a Pokemon to evolve in Nuzlocke..."
-quoted by AceDragonite.
.... thats annoying. Super annoying. Yeah I figured someone would say something like that.... what with my kricketot and all. Well I guess I have to start all over again...

Okay, last time my Nuzclocke thing was a little jacked up. I apologize. I'll restart it so its not jacked up any more.

Nuzclocke Challenge Chapter 1: Beginning

*(Yawns) Wake up
* I run down stairs and eat my breakfast. (Most important meal of the day.)
*Get my clothes on... cant get my starter in my jammies... like Ash did.
* Got my Turtwig from Prof Rowan. (Named it Chuckles.)
*Gave my mother a kiss.. duh arent you supposed to do that? Then I started my adventure.......
This is all I've got so far. Until next time.... the adventure continues...

By the way the Pokeballs in my signature are empty slots.

I'm actually gonna withdraw from this challenge. I dont really like Sinnoh that much and I am a little more interested in a different chalenge.

Update #8

Okay, a lot of stuff happened since the last update so I'm gonna list it all in bullet points:
-Returned to Route 206 and captured LoonyTuney, the Kricketune.
-Found an Armour Fossil underground and resurrected it in Oreburgh City for a Lv20 Shieldon, Iron Wall (I'm running out of creative nicknames ok? Sheesh.)
-Beat all the trainers on Route 208 and captured SoulSister the Lv17 Ralts.
-LadySpook reached Lv25 and evolved into Haunter.
-Reached Hearthome City.
-Fully explored the city and recieved the Lv20 Eevee, Solar from Bebe.
-Started battling the Gym trainers. A Haunter wiped out my beloved Psy Aye Ay with a Shadow Ball.
-Took a 40 min break to decide what to do next, now that Psy Aye Ay was dead. I decided to add SoulSister the Ralts to my team. I gave it the Exp Share and beat the rest of the Gym trainers. Time to face Fantina.
-She led with Duskull and I used Lady Spook. I used Shadow Punch and took him down to yellow health. He used Will-o-Wisp and burned my Gengar. I used another Shadow Punch to finish Duskull. Unfortunately, since Gengar only has a physical attack, the burn means hes effectively useless for the remainder of the fight.
-Next came her ace Mismagius. I used Monferno. Her Psybeam took me down to yellow health and my Flame Wheel only took out a third of her health. I had to switch to keep my Fernonator alive. LadySpook is useless cos of burn, Harmony only has a normal attacking move and Fernonator is now close to death leaving me only with Starlight.
-If Starlight fainted, my entire team would probably die soon after. Therefore I just Double Teamed 6 times and healed with Super Potions when I needed to. She started spamming Magical Leaf, which did about 10HP with each hit. When I had maxxed out evasiveness I Wing Attacked until she ran out of sitrus Berries, Super Potions and was dead. '
-Finally she used Haunter. It couldn't land a hit on Starlight with her evasiveness and Starlight finished the fight with two Wing Attacks. I had won. Just.
-And what's this? The exp from Haunter levelled up SoulSister to Level 20, meaning she evolved to Kirlia!
-I got my third badge.
-I healed and encountered Zane. Harmony used Yawn and two Returns to dispatch the Double Teaming Staravia. Next came Ponyta which I eliminated with Starlight's Wing Attacks. Prinplup was next. I switched back to Harmony. She used Yawn, Prinplup used Bubblebeam. I used Return next while Prinplup used Bubblebeam taking Harmony to yellow healh. I used Return again and Prinplup fainted. Finally, Fernonator took out Roselia with a single Flame Wheel. Roselia, you were just Fernonatored.
-I beat all the trainers on Route 209 and Lost Tower. I captured Star 3.0 the Staravia on Route 209 and killed the Zubat I encountered in Lost Tower. I levelled up SoulSister till she was on par with the rest of my team.
-I reached Solaceon and explorered a bit.
-Next time I intend to explore the Solaceon Ruins and continue onto towards my fourth badge in Veilstone City.

Huff... Puff...
That was a lot of typing...

@ sephirothxx, well you have to play by the rules, anyway, at least you were honest.
@Diablerie, I didn't know you were playing platinum, btw evolve Ralts into Gallade, not Gardevoir.
My Gallade pwned Cyrus.
 
Alrighty, quite a bit has happened since my last update, but i think im holding my own pretty well for being a beginner.

------------------------------
Seems like the challenge has been goin good so far :) I'ma challenge Morty when my pokes are at at least lv 25.
and my neona needs to either evolve or learn so new moves already cause she's draggin me down :/ shes almost died like at least 6 times.
 
@AceDragonite Unfortunately, it's a female Ralts. I can only evolve it into a Gallade if it's male. It doesn't really matter though. I like both Gardevoir and Gallade and didn't really mind which way it went. Provided it reaches Lv31 without dying cos so far SoulSister is very fragile.

@Clakstir Well Gastly evolves at Lv25 and then learns Shadow Punch straight away. Don't give up on it - once you've got a Gengar you'll be glad you put up with Gastly for so long. I know cos I'm using a Gengar on my Platinum challenge.

Update #9

So I started in Solaceon Town. I already typed this whole update out once, and accidently deleted it. Since I really can't be stuffed typing it all out a second time, I'll just list everything that happened:

-Visited Solaceon Ruins. Caught Eff the Unown, found HM Defog and a Water Stone.
-Withdrew Solar the Eevee from day care. Evolved it into a Vaporeon. Renamed it Riptide. Levelled it up with Vs Seeker till it was on par with the rest of the team.
-Headed north to Route 210. Caught Giddy Up the Ponyta. Beat trainers and got diverted by the Psyduck roadblock. Had bad memories of Psy Aye Ay.
-Enters Route 215. Beat trainers and captured yet another Staravia, this one aptly called 'AnotherOne'.
-Entered Veilstone. Got lots of items. Recieved Digital the Porygon.
-Wanted a TM from the Game Corner but didn't have enough money yet.
-Decided to postpone Gym challenge till later and do extra training.
-Headed south to Route 214. Beat trainers and captured Bulldozer the Rhyhorn. Entered Ruin Maniac Cave and captured Pebbles the Geodude. At Valor Lakefront captured Palindrome the Girafarig.
-Searched for hidden items around the Lakefront, including the girl's Suite Key.
-Grinded using the double battles at the restaraunt. SoulSister hit Lv31, learned Psychic and evolved into Gardevoir. She'll definitely be hugely helpful at the Veilstone Gym.
-Captured a Wingull named Squarck at Route 213. Visited Dr Footsteps' house.
-Reached Pastoria. Visited the Move Relearner and had Harmony learn Magical Leaf. I'll be back here when I have Infernape and Togekiss.
-Explored the city. Collected the a ton of items in the Great Marsh but missed my chance at catching a Pokemon when a Wooper fled.
-Headed onto Route 212 and captured McShelly the Shellos.
-Visited the Move Tutor. I'll be back here later in the game as well, once I have enough shards for the moves I want.
-My little training detour now complete, I returned to Veilstone for the Gym.
-I now have enough coins to buy either Thunderbolt, Ice Beam or Flamethrower from the Game Corner. But which one? And which Pokemon should I teach it to? Any suggestions, anybody?

So yeah, I think my levels are high enough for the Veilstone Gym now. So next time I'll take it on. And feel free to give me suggestions in the TM question, above.

UPDATE #10

Wow, people need to post here more often... I just have to add this update to the end of the last one.
At the end of the last update I returned to Veilstone, with my extra training complete. I quickly beat the Gym trainers, healed, spent 10 mins working out the irritating Gym puzzle before challenging Maylene.
She started with Meditite while I used Lady Spook. I used Shadow Punch and took him down to yellow health. He counterattacked with Confusion which brought Lady Spook to yellow health. I was faster though and another Shadow Punch finished off Meditite. Next came Machoke, so I sent out SoulSister. Soulsister used Psychic. It's super-effective. Foe Machoke fainted. That poor Machoke never stood a chance.
Next was her best Pokemon, Lucario. I switched to Fernonator. She was faster and used Force Palm. This took out more than half of Fernonator's health and paralyzed him. Thankfully my Flame Wheel still hit, and took out about half of Lucario's health. I switched to Starlight. Lucario used a Bone Rush that was intended for Monferno, so it did nothing on Starlight. Starlight used Aerial Ace. I scored a critical and Lucario was finished. As was Maylene. So I earned my fourth badge and the TM for Drain Punch.
Dawn appeared and I had to go help her smash a couple Grunts who stole her Pokedex. Afterwards I met Looker again and got HM02 Fly. I taught it to Starlight and flew to Pastoria. As extra training, I took on all the trainers on Route 212 (including the 5-Maid Knockout Challenge in the mansion). I captured a Roselia, FlowaChild, in the Trophy Garden and then returned to Pastoria. But before I could enter the Gym, I had to take on Zane again.
He used Staravia, I used SoulSister. I used Psychic and Staravia was finished. Next came Ponyta. Another Psychic and he was finished too. Next up was Prinplup. Another Psychic, and Prinplup fainted. His final Pokemon was Roselia. I switched to Fernonator and Flame Wheeled it. Roselia, you have been Fernonatored. Again. So yeah, I totally flattened Zane, taking each of his Pokemon out in one turn.
I challenged the Gym next and levelled my Pokemon up against the Gym trainers. And Starlight hit Lv34, meaning I was now the proud owner of a Staraptor. I challenged Wake and he opened with Gyarados. I used Lady Spook. Knowing Gyarados would be a pain, I used Confuse Ray. Gyarados wasted that turn hurting itself in confusion. On my next turn I used Shadow Ball. Gyarados hit me with a Waterfall, which took me down to 30HP. Luckily, another Shadow Ball killed Gyarados.
Next he used his strongest Pokemon, Floatzel. I used Harmony. I used Yawn and then he surprised me, by knowing Ice Fang. That took Harmony down to yellow health. I had to switch into Fernonator, expecting another Ice Fang. But guess what? He used Brine instead. And I was sure that was gonna kill my intrepid Monferno. It took her down to 3HP. If she had been even one level lower, she would've died right then and there. He fell asleep because of Harmony's Yawn, and I switched to my new Staraptor, Starlight. Starlight used Fly, which took him down to yellow health, until his Sitrus Berry kicked in. He was still snoozing so I flew up again. He woke up and attacked while I was up in the air. Starlight came back down, hitting Floatzel, and he fainted. Wake's last Pokemon was Quagsire. I switched to SoulSister. One Magical Leaf and Quagsire was down too. I had my fifth Gym Badge. Although I came very close to losing Fernonator in the process.
Afterwards, a Grunt lets off a bomb in the Great Marsh. While Wake and Zane are checking it out, I pursue the Grunt all the way to Lake Valor and take him out in one hit with SoulSister. Then I get the Secret Potion from Cynthia which I use to clear the headaches of the Psyduck on Route 210. I begin heading up there to Celestic Town to deliver the Old Charm, when my Fernonator beats a Ninja Boy's Stunky and levels up to Lv36. Meaning I now have an Infernape. I also gathered enough shards to go back and buy the move Thunderpunch for him.
Next time I'll continue on the path to Celestic Town.
Soz, don't have enough time right now to do the list of Pokemon...

I've always wanted to do a Nuzlocke run, and I started it two days ago. It's Platinum. So far, I've been doing pretty well. Let's make this more interesting by doing a list of events.

June 26th
- Starter : Chimchar. Named him Denver.
- Caught a Bidoof at Route 202. Named him Joey.
- Fished myself a Magikarp with an Old Rod at that watery route to the west of Jubilife. Named her Mrs. Fish.
- Entering Route 205, wishing for a Budew. What's this...! It's a B...idoof. Just killed it seeing as I won't be needing another.
- Kicked rival's ass with Joey and Denver, and caught myself a Shinx at Route 203. Named him Caution.
- At Oreburgh gate I got a Psyduck. Named her Derpa.
- Ravaged Path brought me the almighty... Zubat. Named him Renzo.
- Grinded for the gym, Denver evolved into Monferno. Once Derpa learned Water Gun things went very smooth, with a bit of help of Joey's Rock Smash and Denver.
- Got 1st badge! YAH.
- Route 206. It's a... BIDOOF. FML.
- Found a Geodude at the Mine. Named him Gravetone.
- Caution and Joey evolved into Luxio and Bibarel respectively.
- Reached Floaroma town.

June 28th (Wasn't home yesterday)
- Caught myself a Pachirisu at the windoworks. Named her Sandy. Pickup is always a nice plus.
- You noticed how in the official Nuzlocke comics, Ruby's team mostly dies because of critical hits? Well, my first casuality was Renzo, who got crit'd by a mere Scrach by a Galactic member's Glameow. RIP, bro. :(
- GRINDAN' FOREVER. Well, at least up to the early twenties so I can take down Mars peacefully.
- Mars was easy as pie, Joey rollouted the Zubat and Denver handled the fat cat.
- Caught a Shellos at the next route. Named him Jizzer. ( :P )
- Eterna Forest : Failed to catch a Buneary. Well, the first wild battle was two wild Buneary's but Charyl's Chansey took the one I wanted down. Drat.
- Beat Gardenia with ease, Denver handled her team beautifully with her own Turtwig's Sunny Day. :P 2nd badge GET!
- And here we have another beautiful BIDOOF at route 210. Rest in pieces.
- Finished the second Galactic mini-quest without any deaths.
- Cycling Road. This was a sad, sudden death. Joey vs a Ponyta. Joey took it down to like 2 HP and then Ponyta used a Flame Wheel, which killed my Joey from 25 HP. It wasn't even a crit either. RIP Joey :(
- Togepi hatched from the egg. Named him Gento. Currently giving him a Soothe Bell so he evolves early.
- Went back to the Old Chateau and caught Rotom. Repel'd my way there. Named it Electra.
- Caught a Machop on the same route as the Cycling Road. Named her Ellen.
- Found a Gible (!!!) at Wayward Cave. Named him Phenom.
- Accidentally killed a Clefairy in Mt. Coronet. Well, that sucks. :|
- Caught a Zubat on the route before Hearthome... I might use it to revenge Renzo. Named her Fanta.
- Currently grinding to be high leveled enough to take down Fantina without too much problems. I think I might need Caution to evolve once more...

That's it for today. I will continue updating tomorrow.

June 29th
A lot of things happened today. I came very short to losing my two main Pokemon, and I DID lose two guys... So let's write this down, story themed!

"Come on guys, let's train so Fantina won't be too much of a pain for us". That's the only sentence I had to say before I found myself in Route 207 grinding my pokemon mindlessly. Caution, Denver, Phenom, Derpa and Gento.
Caution had enough of training in that one route at level 27, and felt brave enough to take on the trainers inside the gym. As he reached level 29, we stumbled upon an Ace Trainer with a Misdreavus, which was apparently faster than Caution...
"Misdreavus used Psybeam!", "Caution used Bite, it's super effective!". Too bad Caution's Rivalry didn't take place due to that Misdreavus being a female. The damage dealt was not enough. One more Psybeam and he'd be taken down...
"Stay back, I got this!" "Sandy, what the heck are you doing?" *PSYBEAAAM*
"Sandy, no!" "Please, just heal Caution... I've done my job, which is saving you. Thank you, master..." "No..." *Sandy fainted.*
Caution took his revenge, and howled to the skies as he suddenly glew bright and evolved into a Luxray.
Fantina was taken down easily. Caution and Derpa did most of the job.
Got my 3rd badge!
Carrying on, I stumbled upon a Staravia. I've wanted one for a long time... And so be it! Staravia was caught, called him Reaptide.
With a lot of Soothe Bell traveling, Exp. Share and massive grinding, Gento evolved into a Togetic at level 24. Phenom also had it's fair share of training and evolved into a Gabite!
I decided to skip the Veilstone Gym and handle the trainers in the next few routes instead, and also get that TM40 and teach it to Gento.
Little did I know... A restaurant, full of double battles... Sounds fun, doesn't it?
*CRITICAL HIT*. A Quagsire's mud bomb. The victim... was Phenom. My future Garchomp fell down to a Quagsire... RIP...
Derpa avenged with a powerful Water Pulse. She also evolved into a Golduck, finally!
Went back to Veilstone and took down Maylene. Lucario almost took down Gento and Denver... But I scored myself a quicker shot and won my 4th badge. Called it a day and rested at the pokecenter... Let's hope I won't lose any more guys next time...

NEXT: Wake, Rival bullcrap, Galactic madness and more evolutions, yay!

Update #10

@Trigger - RaveSage, who started this thread, hasn't been here for ages. Don't worry about signing up - just start your updates whenever you want.

@NecroFlame- Lol, bad luck on your Gabite. The same thing happened to me on an earlier update. I was really psyched at catching a Gible, only to have it KO'd two seconds later by a Staravia.

Anyways...

-Beat all the trainers to Celestic, until...

Gyarados used Crunch!
It's super-effective!
Critical Hit!
Lady Spook fainted!
Diablerie got annoyed!

-I withdrew Iron Wall from Day Care to replace Lady Spook and evolved it into Bastiodon. Taught Toxic to Iron Wall and Earthquake to Fernonator.
-Beat all the trainers west of Celestic.
-Beat the Grunt threathening to blow up the ruins
-Took on Cyrus, the blue-haired wierdo.
-He started with Sneasel. He was faster than Harmony, used Ice Punch, took Harmony into yellow and froze him. I switched into Fernonator, and used Close Combat to slaughter Sneasel.
-He used Golbat, which I used Flame Wheel to kill.
-Next came his Murkrow. I switched to Starlight and used Fly to smash Murkrow, and the blue-haired wierdo.
-Got HM03 Surf, which I taught to Riptide.
-Went to Floaroma Meadow and picked up lots of hidden items.
-Went to Feugo Ironworks and caught Spits the Magmar. Inside I got a ton of shards and the TM for Flamethrower, which I may teach to Iron Wall. Surfed behind Valley Windworks to get TM for THunderbolt, which I taught to SoulSister. Got the Route 212 Move Tutor to teach Thunder Punch to Fernonator in exchange for some shards.
-Took on all the trainers on the surf routes south of Sandgem Town,
-Failed to catch Pokemon on Route 219 and Route 220 (I wasn't really paying attention) and then captured Jellybelly the Tentacool on Route 221. After beating all the trainers I returned to Jubilife. This time I lost Lady Spook, beat Cyrus, added Iron Wall to the team and improved my Pokemon's movesets. Next time I'll go to Iron Island to finally get a Shiny Stone to evolve Harmony into Togekiss, and then Byron of the Canalave Gym

Odd...I was detecting a Critical, Super Effective, Physical strike coming your way, but I could of sworn it was directed at Soul. Well, sorry for your loss anyways.

Now:

Previously on Nuzrick's Nuzlocke Challenge!

"For now on, your name shall be Popstar, and you'll be under my control. Got that?"

...

*Dudududan!*

...

"You're a Pokemon Trainer! I happen to be a Pokemon Trainer! Our eyes met, so battle we must!"

...​

"Too strong! Too strong!"

...

"Hope that doesn't become Popstar some day..."

GAME OVER Yeaaaaaaah!

And so, Nuzrick's journey ended prematurely. Will this be the last we will ever hear about our hero, or will he revisit an old region for an adventure renewed?

*Blows Sapphire and Inserts into DS*

There is no game in the GBA slot

*Rinse, Repeat*

There is an options pack in the GBA slot

Okay, so much for my Sapphire run.

Now, if I could just find Platinum version, I can start anew, and play the game using Porygon2!

"A loss of one is a victory for the other..."
As we started heading off to Pastoria, Reaptide was fed with Proteins and started training into what it's destined to be... And so it has become.
"Congratulations! Your Reaptide evolved into a Staraptor!" :shocked:
To cover the loss of Phenom, we entered the Great Marsh. We stumbled upon a cute, buzzing bug. It was Yanma. Captured and named him Blitz.
Before challenging the gym, I was willing for an Infernape. So I went to the Mansion and decided to catch myself someone from the Trophy Garden. I found myself a Roselia, called her Flora.
The challenge of "take down 5 maids in a row" sounded fun, and good training for Denver.
The first two Clefairies were easy and taken down with 1 hit. The 3rd Clefairy trolled Denver into 39 HP, but was taken down.
Next...
"Clefairy used Metronome!
Clefairy used DRAGON RAGE!
Denver fainted."
WAT.
That was a horrible, tough loss. My starter, my only fire Pokemon, fell down. RIP...
But everything has to move on. I trained simply everyone into much higher levels, took the Pastoria gym and almost lost Caution due to Gyarados flinching him with Waterfall once. But the rest was pretty easy, and I won my 4th badge.
Also caught myself a Wooper, called her Happyfais.
*BOOM!* It was a galactic bomb! Me and Looker chased him down, and eventually got him. He was defeated brutally and escaped. Then, Cynthia showed up, and gave me a SecretPotion to use on the Psyducks. And so I did. Carrying on to Celestic Town, nothing too important happened. I defeated Cyrus easily and taught Derpa Surf. Then, I evolved Rustle into a Leafeon, so I score myself another Heart Scale.
Next, I got to Canalave city, and defeated my rival. It was easy, too. Almost lost Caution AGAIN though. Stupid Double Team trollers!
Then, I took my rival's advice and went to Iron Island before taking on the gym, and taught Caution Strength. Then, I grinded Derpa into level 45 in there. As you can tell, I had that feeling the gym is gonna be very easy... But wait! What's this? Moti found a Shiny Stone!
YES.
Gento evolved into a Togekiss shortly after, and I went to the Move Tutor in Pastoria and taught Gento Air Slash and Aura Sphere. Also, I taught him TM30 Shadow Ball. Can you say badass Special Sweeper? I think so. :P
Oh yeah, Blitz also evolved to Yanmega.
I took down the Gym with ease, Gento took down the trainers but Derpa scored most of Byron's team. And then, another bomb. This time, it was at Lake Valor... Unsurprisingly, I was sent there by Prof. Rowan. Looks like my job just got more interesting...

To be continued.

Too lazy to name all of my Boxed Pokemon.
Next time: Galactic Madness V4, Snowpoint City stuff, Mass grinding and maybe Giratina!

Notes:
- I won't have time to update tomorrow and possibly not Friday either.
- Am I allowed to catch Giratina, or is it strictly forbidden?
- It kinda sucks that an electric Pokemon can tear up 80% of my party members.. I should work on that. D:
 
I think I may start in Diamond again, but can I plz plz plz trade for a Porygon-Z?
I know its "against the rules" but its the only Pokemon I'll ever trade for, and I won't catch Dialga. There I said it.
I think a Dialga is tender for a Porygon-Z.

Even if it is allowed, trust me on this, you don't want to send over a Z. Porygon-Z is notoriously frailer then Porygon2, and many attacks that Porygon2 normally survives would likely obliterate Porygon-Z on the spot. In Nuzlocke world, durability is a major factor over who will live...


And who will die.


Get Porygon2 instead (if such a thing is allowed). It still has decent special attack, but much better defenses. Plus, if it disobeys you, it won't be in high risk for falling due to a critical strike.

Of course, if you're willing to take a risk, and want something that can 1HKO/Kill most anything in the game (with proper training), go ahead. Just make sure to be cautious, especially when attempting to switch Porygon-Z into something.
