[Challenge] The Randomized Nuzlocke Challenge

[Blastin'Tyruntz]

To Zeta, AWAY!
Update:
So I started, everything's dindy dandy diddly doodly
Either Wailord, Tyranitar or Droftblim...TYRANITAR FUCK YEAH
I called her Sandy because...Sandstorm...and..you get it.
I did all the generic rival talk, got the pokdex, and caught an Aegislash on route 301
I saved, exited and restarted to get my mystery gift, an Hawlucha, along with a medical license, Cinnabar ticket, a license template, and the Aerodactylite.
I killed a Khangaskan in Naragex forest...and saved there.
Team:
Hawlucha (Lvl 6, Limber)
Sandy (Tyranitar, Lvl 9, Sand-something xD)
Excaliber (Aegislash, Lvl 9, Stance change)

 

[AoTora]

Next episode is out ^^


And the next one ^^

 

[Blastin'Tyruntz]

Hooray more Zeta!
Caught Pichu at the cave, called it RAWR.
I challenged Devon's gym!
RAWR died during the first gym trainer...R.I.P
Hawlucha loafed around and DIED.
Excaliber died to Devon's ace, a Golem...
I crushed Devon! (1/8)
Killed Relicanth on route 302
Sandy died to a day-care worker on route 302 and my challenge is over!
FEAR NOT! I will do another one!
Pokemon Heart Gold should do the trick for me! (Let's hope it won't break)

You're kinda stuck with the egg so no, it's not an encounter.
I'll add you now and update. I really freaking hope I finally complete my own challenge xD
Hooray
Did generic early game stuff
First route was tough..caught Nelly the Toxicroack
then the file got corrupted. I hate Heart Gold...
I'll try pokemon White.

Update #2

Spoiler:

Route 30:

Spoiler:

• Exited Mr. Pokémon's House.
• Prof. Elm called, looks like something happened in his lab, and he wants me to return.
• Picked a Pink Apricorn.
• Pokémon found here: Rhydon/Sneasel
• Picked a Green Apricorn.

Cherrygrove City:

Spoiler:

• Healed.
• First encountered my rival... "You are challenged by Artisan Boy!" (forgot to screencap)
• His Beautifly had Volt Absorb (making my Charge Beam useless), but only had Powder Snow. Not much of a hassle.
• Healed again.

Route 29:

Spoiler:

• Just passed through, no wild encounters.

New Bark Town:

Spoiler:

• Found this! Gave it to Steven.
  
  
• Looks like my rival had stolen one of Elm's Pokémon. Named him 'Hilbert'.
• Handed over the Mystery Egg.
• Told Prof. Elm that Prof. Oak had given me a Pokédex. He suggested me to take on the Pokémon Gym challenge.

Route 29:

Spoiler:

• Thinking I didn't know this already, Lyra "taught" me how to catch Pokémon.
• Wait... What?! Well, at least, you taught me this is possible... (and then Rattata used Mega Punch...)
  
  
• She also gave me Poké Balls.
• Missed my first first encounter! A Flareon! And it even took all my Poké Balls with him...
• Pokémon found here: Flareon, Charmander.
• Picked a Green Apricorn.

Cherrygrove City:

Spoiler:

• Healed and bought Poké Balls.

Routes 29 and 46:

Spoiler:

• Pokémon found in Route 29: Charmander
• Accidentally KO'd my first encounter...
  
  
• Also found Muk here.
• I agree with you.
  
  

Cherrygrove City:

Spoiler:

• Healed.

Route 30:

Spoiler:

• Finally caught something! With a bit of luck, I was able to catch this Rhyhorn (Serious, mischevious). Named it Barry.
  
  
• Adaptability gives extra STAB (if he ever get some). The Leppa Berry might come in handy later. Teleport is quite useful. Explosion is horrible! Twineedle has a chance of poisoning, and that's good.

Routes 29 and 30 and Cherrygrove City:

Spoiler:

• Grinded Barry at Route 29.
• Then I decided to switch to Route 30, cause Sneasel are easier to KO.
• Color Change Sneasel??
• With Barry at Lv. 7, I prepare to take on Youngster Joey.

Route 30:

Spoiler:

• This explains that whole thing about the top percentage Rattata. But where's the Rattata? (He only had a Spinarak)
  
  
• Next up: Elite Four Mikey, with a Lv. 2 Wingull and a Lv.4 Hoppip.
• Looks like this Bug Catcher became an Analyst... He had two Ralts.
  
  
• As I kept walking towards the end of the route, mom called. Prof. Elm told her about my journey and she offered to keep part of my prize money. I agreed.
• Saved.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Current team:

Spoiler:

• Barry, the docile male Rhydon, mischevious
  
  
• Steven, the docile Metagross, with good endurance
  
  

Boxed: None yet.
Deaths: None yet.

Update #3

Spoiler:

Route 31:

Spoiler:

• First encounter: a wild Glaceon!
• It killed Barry with BubbleBeam, and I couldn't even catch it, because I only had 2 Poké Balls!
• Teleported to Cherrygrove City.

Cherrygrove City:

Spoiler:

• Boxed Barry. Goodbye, Lucky Egg!
• Healed and bought Poké Balls.

Route 31:

Spoiler:

• Pokémon found here: Glaceon.
• Found this; for me it means money.
  
  
• And this; may be useful.
  
  
• "Analyst" Wade had FOUR Ralts!
• Picked a Black Apricorn.
• On the gate, Lyra gave me the Vs. Recorder.

Violet City:

Spoiler:

• Healed, sold the Pearl and bought more Poké Balls, to catch something at the Dark Cave.

Dark Cave:

Spoiler:

• First encounter: Relicanth.
• Failed to catch it, ran out of Poké Balls.
• Also found Slow Start Venomoth.
• Found this. Why does Mail even exist?
  
  
• Metagross is only weak to Ghost in Gen VI, so I don't need this for now.
  
  

Violet City:

Spoiler:

• Found this. May be useful in the future.
  
  
• Picked a Yellow Apricorn.
• This. I really want a Claydol, now.
  
  
• Got 2 secret wallpapers from Primo.
• Healed.
• Sold the Fluffy Tail and the Grass Mail and bought 4 Poké Balls (I hope the Sprout Tower trainers give me some money...).

Sprout Tower:

Spoiler:

• As soon as I climbed the stairs, guess who called? Of course, "Elite Four" Joey!
  
  
• Cranidos? He actually lives on Route 29... (Also, I called him, and he mentions his Spinarak, not Rattata. I'm looking forward to the "My Spinarak is top percentage" call.)
• Took a while to find a wild Pokémon, but it was worth the time.
• First encounter: PIDGEOT! Caught him in the first ball. Called him Blue. He is brave and likes to run.
  
  
• The ability is not amazing, but isn't bad. Night Shade inflicts damage matching the level, so for now it's not the best. Snore only works while sleeping. Mud Sport is great! Ominous Wind is also good.
• This random trainer class thing is becoming hilarious. I wonder what will come next...
  
  
• He had 2 Houndoor and a Stunky.
  
  

Violet City:

Spoiler:

• I had to heal, because Blue was burned by the 1st Houndoor's Heat Wave.

Sprout Tower:

Spoiler:

• Pokémon found here, 2F: Pidgeot.
• Preschooler Chow had 2 Carvanha and a Houndoor.
  
  
• Found this.
  
  
• Preschooler Edmond had a Stunky and 2 Houndoor.
• Steven is weak to Ground, isn't it?
  
  
• Preschooler Jin had a Houndoor. The same for Preschooler Neal.
• Preschooler Troy had a Houndoor and a Poochyena.
• Hilbert was there. He had beaten the Elder, apparently easily.
• For now, an Escape Rope would have been better.
  
  
• OK, this is what comes next... He has 2 Carvanha and a Stunky.
  
  
• And...
  
  
• After Li giving me a TM, Joey calls yet again. This time it's a wild Sneasel.
• The TM is Guillotine! And both Steven and Blue can learn it! But I'll keep the TM for a bit more.
• After all, I think this should be called the Door Tower, not Sprout Tower.

Violet City:

Spoiler:

• Healed.
• Saved.

-------------------------------------------
Current team:

Spoiler:

• Blue, the brave male Pidgeot, likes to run
  
  
• Steven, the docile Metagross, with good endurance
  
  

Boxed: None yet.
Deaths:

Spoiler:

 

[Blastin'Tyruntz]

The grass type Tepig, The Ice type Ponyta, or the Bug type Rufflet...tough choices...
I went with Ponyta, the Ice type! It has the ability Oblivious, which makes me go kinda meh...idk how to feel about this.

 

[Johto Cheren]

Update #4:

• Before taking on Falkner, I decided to explore a bit more.
• Received HM06: Rock Smash from someone on Route 36. Though no one can learn it.
  
  
• Found these items on the Ruins of Alph.
  
  
  
  
• The Amulet Coin is useful, so I gave it to Blue.
• Solved the Kabuto puzzle on the first chamber, so I could catch something here.
• Then I realized I only had 3 Poké Balls. Still, I managed to catch a bashful Clefairy, who likes to run. Named her Dawn.
  
  
  
• Returned to Violet CIty, picking a Yellow Apricorn on the way.
• Healed and bought Poké Balls.
• On Route 32, the first encounter was a Castform. Had to wait until it Struggled so it damaged itself. It is also bashful and likes to run. I wanted to name it Wally, but it was a girl, so Wanda instead.
  
  
• Then I grinded Dawn and Wanda at Sprout Tower:
  
  
  
  
• Cyclist?... With a Slugma?...
  
  
• And the other Cyclist had TWO Slugma.
• Finally, Gent Falkner had a Slugma and a Magby. Even Sprout Tower was more challenging.
  
  
• He gave me the Gym Badge and TM51: Horn Attack. It is not Roost, okay, Falkner?
  
  
  
• Then Elm asked me to pick up the egg at the Poké Mart. Also picked up a Super Potion from my mom.
• After exiting the Mart, a Kimono Girl talked to me, looks like she knew that egg.
• Healed and saved.

[Blastin'Tyruntz]

Edit1: My starters were Treecko, Totodile and Lugia. Obviously, I chose Lugia and see Whaaat? There's only move on Lugia's moveset and that is Whirlwind. :( I restart my game because it's impossible to move forward.

Edit2: Okay. I chose Lapras for beginning (Others were Hariyama and Girafarig). I beat May -she's taken Hariyama- and I caught a Parasect on Route 103. I'm at Petalburg city at the moment.
Party: Jane*bulbagarden.net image removed* Mario*bulbagarden.net image removed*

Edit3: I've caught a Porygon2 on Route 104, named him "Clank". By the way, I wonder if anyone played Ratchet and Clank here? Anyway, I also caught a hoothoot in Petalburg Forest named her "Airlines" because I will use her as Flyer later. I beat the gym, Roxanne and I've caught a Exploud and named him "Radiohead". He's my new partner. Game is so fun so far. ^^
Party: Jane*bulbagarden.net image removed* Mario*bulbagarden.net image removed* Clank*bulbagarden.net image removed* Radiohead*bulbagarden.net image removed*

Edit4: Reached Dewford Town, (I caught a Dragonite here with an old rod), met with Steven, beat the gym, Brawly. His Spheal killed my Clank unfortunately so he's out from party. :( I also caught a Sandshrew and named her "Digzy". Next destination is Slateport City.
Party: Jane*bulbagarden.net image removed* Mario*bulbagarden.net image removed* Radiohead*bulbagarden.net image removed* Laura*bulbagarden.net image removed*
R.I.P Clank*bulbagarden.net image removed*

Edit5: Later, my dear Radiohead (Exploud) killed by a Raichu on Route 110. That was all my fault, please forgive me Radiohead..
I reached to Mauville city. Beat Wally (He has a Wooper instead of Ralts), Wattson there and obtained an Acro Bike. Then head east to find a pokemon on route 117 but unfortunatelly I killed a Kangashkan there and lose my chance. Not much to say about Verdanturf Town and Rusturff Tunnel, we all know already. Btw, I caught a Zigzagoon on Route 111 and named her "Mono". She is going to be our HM helper. Game is great!
Party: Jane*bulbagarden.net image removed* Mario*bulbagarden.net image removed* Laura*bulbagarden.net image removed* Mono*bulbagarden.net image removed*
R.I.P Clank*bulbagarden.net image removed* Radiohead*bulbagarden.net image removed*

Edit6: While going to Fallarbor Town, two pokemon I've caught. A Xatu on Fiery Path (Named him "Priest"), a Duskull on Route 113 (Named him "Skullvoir"). There was nothing to do in Fallarbor Town except meeting with Lanette. After that, I caught a Corsola on Route 114 (Named her "Cynthia") and a Meganium in Meteor Falls. I named her "Ireland" and add to party. She's our new partner.
Now you won't believe, while I was leveling up Meganium I've encountered with a shiny Duskull. Caught immediately.(NO HACK) I don't know but can I use him?

• Now I think she should have learnt this...
  
  Spoiler:

  
• Cop Ralph had a Drifloon.
• More items: the TM is useless, but everyone except Steven could learn it. Mystic Water might come in handy.
  
  Spoiler:

  Spoiler:

Yet another sign-up...

Username: phantomness
Game: Pokemon Omicron
Additional Rules: None

My starter choices were Volcarona, Dewott, or Pachirisu. I chose Volcarona and named her Empress. I barely beat Jeremy's Mantyke. And Camper Aiden had a Crustle with Rock Blast. My run ended immediately… so I'm trying again, same sign-up!
So my next run got *slightly* further... I at least got my starter Roserade and Rafflesia the Venusaur on the first route before losing them both to a stupid Darkrai T.T. Trying again...
