Final Note:
This was actually harder than I thought it would be since I'm so used to just gliding through the game without having to train all that much. I've gotten to used to just reviving my Pokemon and that caused me to have huge losses, especially on the second gym and after.

EDIT:
I totally uploaded some pictures and forgot to add them. It is way to late at night and I need some sleep.

Update- Nuzlocke Black 2

Caught a Sewaddle, named it Caterpi.

RIP Kit-Cat the Purrloin

I'm gunna use the shiny clause, but not the dupes clause, there SHOULD be enough different Pokemon in Unova. XD Also, I'm gunna only use 6 Pokemon, the PC is only for Perma-Box or if I find a shiny with 6 members(it will go in a different box).
 
Alright, time for another round with Black.

Black 2 Update:

I started up the game and chose Tepig as my starter, she was female and I named her Buro.
While training Buro, I found a low leveled Patrat, so I let him join and named him Waru. In his first battle, he died to a critical hit. Sadly, me and Buro trudged on to the Ranch, catching a Sewaddle on the next Route and a Lillipup at the Ranch, named Luro and Sturo. We trained up so hard to make sure Cheren didn't kill us.
Thankfully no one died at the gym, but shortly after we ran into a trainer with a Dunsparce, who used Rollout to kill Luro and Sturo. Buro barely managed to get out alive.
After perma-boxing them, I went south of the next Town to look for a new Teammate. We found a Magby that I named Maru, I'm not sure if I can expect him to survive.....

Spoiler: Team
Tepig Buro
Female Level 14

Magby Maru
Male Level 8


Spoiler: Rip
Waru Patrat Male
Level 2-2

Luro Sewaddle Male
Level ?-13

Sturo Lillipup Female
Level ?-13


I'll update properly in the morning.

OK, well, I was doing a Nuzlocke of Storm Silver, but that has unfortunately come to a standstill. My computer recently crashed on me, BSOD and everything, and I lost a bunch of stuff, including my save file. However, I'm determined to complete a challenge run, so I'm going to try again - on normal HeartGold this time, because this way the only danger to my file is losing the game card. SO, without further ado:

I should inform that I completed my Black Nuzlocke that I started a while back. I'm too lazy to go into what happened, so i'll just post my final team and death count. I will mention that the Gym Leaders were actually quite a bit nicer to me than a lot of trainers were, I have to say. None of my deaths were to important battles until the Elite Four. Also, I came super close to beating N and Ghetsis without losing anyone, but my Darmanitan died to that Eelektross in a circumstance I could have easily prevented. )= But with that...

The final team:

And there you have it! I'll be starting another one soon but just wanted to say I finished this. Next time I need to be more consistent updating...

Hey Volga, just a heads up that I'm dropping my Platinum run cause I kind of got bored of it. Maybe I'll come back to it someday in the future but for now you can remove it from the OP.
