I've never done Nuzlockes because I don't believe in doing the lazy developer's work for them by restricting myself just for a challenge. These things should really be included in the games, and since that will never happen...eh.

...and honestly, with all I have on my backlog, I just don't have the time. If I want a challenge I'll play something else. xD

May I be allowed to partake in the ongoing discussions. Thank you so very much.

To add to what my esteemed colleague, par excellence, the great Mr. LegendChu said, Variants of Nuzlockes can be done to make the Games harder, but even so, nothing is impossible, victory can be achieved through dedication, hard work & perseverance.

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,

Monsieur MustaChu

Speaking of dedication and hard work...I'm going to make another living dex on the 6th gen. Getting everything I can with my name. Meaning I'm going to have to go through ORAS and XY three times apiece.

This is how I try and revive my interest in the franchise...by going on "catch 'em all" quests I used to go on in the fourth generation when it was more enjoyable. I think I'm trying too hard ._.

In my Black Nuzlocke I found myself using similar Pokemon than I normally use. In a non-nuzlocke I would have likely used Gothitelle in my Final team anyway. Although due to Nuzlocke rules I used Simisage and the Lillipup line much longer than I would usually.

Pokemon games have always by default been straightforward so they could be accessible to children. The developers know that anyone who wants a self imposed challenge will make one themselves.

It is frustrating though that Europe gets hardly any good events. Being given a normal Midnight Lycanroc when Japan gets Ash Pikachu is very annoying.

Japan was the country that created Pokemon, so you can understand why they get the better events.

Congratulations on the achievement young lady, you now join the ranks of the ever inspirational, the great Lord LegendChu.

I would want to know if any of you lovely people have successfully completed an Electric monotype run?

I very nearly made my first X run a Fire monotype, if only because there were so many fire types along the early routes I wanted to use.

In my current OR file I could feasibly do a Fighting monotype, but after Super Training four Pokemon I'm not really in the mood to hunt for a Dawn Stone for my Kirlia...and Gardevoir is better than Gallade anyway. Although I might swap Gardevoir for Latios when I get it...

That and using something you may never use in a normal playthrough.

Never done a monotype run of any kind but if I ever did electric would definitely be my first go to.

Wait are monotype nuzlockes a thing?

Piplup works for me. Just need to keep him away from Gardenia.

Hopefully you're able to pick up a starly or something then.

Yeah. I aam using a Fearow now lol. Of all mons.

Also, monotype nuzlocke is a thing. It's just so difficult lol
 
110

I imagine most monotype Nuzlockes turn into Normal or Flying-type runs...unless you plan on using your starter for the entire game, anyway.
 
112

Doesn't that just defeat the whole purpose of a Nuzlocke, though? It's not very challenging if you can just pick the Pokemon you want, even if it's a monotype run.
 
113

Well, some people may play with a clause so they don't get stuck with a male Combee for an encounter. And maybe it applies to Salandit in SM to an extent as well.
 
114

But clauses like that only make it less challenging! If you want to go out you shouldn't evolve your Pokemon at all! Boo! /shot

...but I guess you play however you find it most enjoyable. God knows I don't go all out very much on games these days.
