    Day 1

    I got my Pikachu (Dr.Troll!) and defeated Gary
    Ended up encountering a pokemon on route 1 with no pokeballs due to it being the start (Derp)
    Got to Viridian
    Caught a Pidgey (Pudgy) on route 2
    Entered viridian forest and encountered .... wait for it ... CATERPIE! I threw one pokeball and it failed, paralyzed it and threw a pokeball and failed, then killed it because it wasn't worth the trouble.
    Re entered route 2 and encountered a Nidoran which because its route 2 I couldn't catch
    Kicked myself and my Pidgey.
    Grinded both to level 12
    Bought 5 potions
    Challenged Brock
    Sand attack spammed and then gust spammed and defeated Geodude
    Sand attack spammed and quick attack spammed Onix (Pudgy leveled on Geodude)
    Bind hit me a few times and almost killed Pudgy
    I sent in Dr.Troll! and growl spammed a bit while Onix kept missing and using Bide then Quick attack spammed until I won
    Caught a spearow called Derptastic
    Caught a Zubat but accidently pressed B :x So I'll just have a nickname in my head. His name is ... Baka Kun
    The rest of today will be grinding probably
    Notable battle with a wild Rattata it was lvl 12 and every hit was critical. Almost killed Dr.Troll! Derptastic and slightly harmed Pudgy whom had to kill it. I was so scared that it would kill Dr.Troll!

    Pokemon:
    Zubat-Lvl:9-Baka Kun
    Pidgey-Lvl:17-Pudgy
    Pikachu-Lvl:14-Dr.Troll!
    Spearow-Lvl:12-Derptastic

    Day 2

    I wrote a long post and I pressed backspace while it wasn't typing and I lost everthing and I've forgotten almost EVERYTHING IVE DONE
    Other than I got through mount moon

    Got a Charmander
    Evolved the charmander
    Killed my route 25 catch a Pidgey (Unintentional)
    Got to Bill
    Went to route 5 and caught a Pidgey
    Defeated Misty's Staryu with ease but that starmie... Halfed Dr.Troll!'s HP and then got a crit on Pugdy(lvl22) which left him with 1hp and I switched for Dr.Troll!(Lvl18) and Bubblebeam... Killed him... I sent out Baka Kun(Lvl14) and Starmie got a Tackle crit that didn't kill him and allowed him to use Supersonic I switched to Derptastic(Lvl15) whom died with one hit of Bubble beam. I sent out Veggysaur(14) Who vine spammed while Starmie kept hurting itself. I won. But with a price. Looks like I'll need Sawyer.

  • Finally... After weeks of hiatus and several hours of training and hard work (getting off my lazy ass and getting somewhere with this run), I did it. I managed to defeat the Elite 4 of Kanto! God, it was not easy. There were several lucky crits, 75% of them I was on the receiving end of. After that whole ordeal, I'm going to go an a whole capture spree and make my way to the Sevii Islands where I shall continue my Nuzlocke run (minus the one Pokemon per area).


    Team:
    Spoiler:


    The Fallen:
    Spoiler:

    From here what I'll do is capture more Pokemon then make my way to the Sevii Islands and complete all the sidequests. Then I'll do a few team revisions and see where and how I can improve. If anyone at all could give tips on what Pokemon I could replace then I'm open for suggestions.

    Edit:
    Whoops I almost forgot about this! Here's a picture of my team's first Hall of Fame.

    Nothing much happened though. i took once again against those weirdos of the pokemon mafia.both in a gaming hall and in the pokémon tower.

    Meanwhile my dito evolved to dugtrio.
    and thats really all that happened so far. Next I am going to see to saffron city which seems to have something weird going on as well. nearly forgot. Baka who seems to be stalking me was met in the pokemontower. His critters were piss poor weak.



    Levels:
    Abu the Kadabra: 31
    Dito (dugtrio) 26
    misoko (wartortle) 29
    nido: 25
    Kakashi: 26
    Guruguru: 30

    Abu and dito are the only ones atm which have decent attacks lol. Nido still doesnt do much else than scratch and horn jab xD

    Fainted so far: none.

  • Chamo's Nuzlocke (Diamond Version) 1

    I'm starting a diamond version nuzlocke with all the rules but 2nd one.
    I was making a comic about it, so I might just upload it.I'm using Chamo as in-game name since that's how some friends call me.
    I'm using rules 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 I guess.

  • I'm starting this on sapphire..

    These rules:
    1. If a Pokemon Faints, its dead, release it.
    3. You can only catch/recieve one Pokemon in each Area. A town is one area, a route is one area, a cave is one area, etc. Should you fail to catch a Pokemon for any reason (other than game corruption) than too bad.
    4. You must nickname all of your Pokemon (optional, but highly reccomended)
    5. No catching legendaries.
    7. Change the battle style to SET. (optional)

    I just started, using my name: Kevin. I chose mudkip nicknamed Kid.
    Luckily, I didn't run into any Pokemon the first way through Route 201, so I caught a Zigzagoon named Horse. (that's allowed right? if you don't encounter a Pokemon going through that route, you can catch one coming back?)

  • Hokay. I forgot to update >.<

    Anyways, I'd love to write details of what happened, but frankly I'm far too lazy, so I'll just list the pokemon I have because that basically sums it up. I'm about halfway through the Rockets in Goldenrod.

    Sapphire:
    Got Treecko and still nicknamed him, Trollface!
    Caught Zigzagoon on route 101.
    Caught poochyena on route 103
    Caught Lotad on route 102
    Caught Wurmple on route 104
    Caught Slackoth in petalburg forest
    Caught Tailow in the route outside of the forest (105 I guess)
    Went to route outside of rustboro (116?) Encountered a whismur but forgot to buy pokeballs
    Treecko got poisoned and thought he would die but I realised I had Pecha Berries and I was like "YES"
    Did the double battle with those twins. I didn't realise the seedot was using bide and killed poochyena. I blame my zigzagoon because if Zigzagoon's attack didn't miss we would've won with no price.
    Battle with roxanne got a critical rock throw on my lotad =_=
    When I got into granite cave I was so lucky to get sableye as my first encounter :D (I was in a situation with it where I used all my Great Balls on it and then caught it with a normal pokeball)
    Sableye pro'd brawly. Nuff said.
