HEY GUYS!
Rules:
Any Pokémon that faints is considered dead, and cannot be used for the remainder of the challenge. Instead of only being able to catch the first Pokémon in each area, exceptions to what the player catches are based on the wild Pokémon's gender. If said Pokémon faints or flees, there are no second chances.
If the player has an odd number of Pokémon in their party, they ignore any encounters of genders they have an odd number of on their team. Genderless Pokémon cannot be caught at any time.
Species Clause is also highly encouraged. The Pokémon are partnered with each other and must fight in pairs. Only one male and one female can form a pair, and after that, that pair lasts until one of the Pokémon dies or is released.
Each Pokémon can only battle alongside its partner, if it has one. The Pokémon can only switch out for its partner. For example, suppose the player's team consists of the following pairs: a male Dewott and a female Sewaddle, a female Patrat and a male Riolu, and a male Growlithe and a female Zubat. If the player uses said Dewott, they can only switch it out for the Sewaddle, and they can only switch the Sewaddle out for the Dewott, and vice versa. If a Pokémon dies in battle, the player must immediately send out its partner to "avenge" the fallen Pokémon, or die along with it, and they cannot switch to any other during that battle unless said Pokémon dies too.
In the above example, if the female Sewaddle dies, the player must immediately send out the Dewott and cannot switch it out for the remainder of the battle barring it dying too. Should this happen, the player must select a Pokémon from their PC that doesn't have a new partner to replace the fallen partner.
If both Pokémon in a pair die, the player must use two Pokémon from their PC to create a new pair. The player cannot deposit any Pokémon into their PC at will. The player must release their Pokémon or have it die in battle if they wish to withdraw anything from their PC.
They may release their Pokémon at will, but that is strongly discouraged.
Likewise, if the player requires a certain field move at any point in the game that no Pokémon on their team can learn, they can temporarily break the rule and deposit a pair for another Pokémon that can use said field move, but only until the player gets another Pokémon that can.
As with the original Nuzlocke rules, the general consensus is that the player must nickname all their Pokémon to form closer emotional bonds.
