>>57103334The game is just saying "this isn't the run, reset now." Good on you for sticking it to the game.
>weaken early-game mon >toss ball in yellow>it breaks out>try to weaken it further>critical hit
>>57104631You hate to see it.
Bump.
>>57102821Elesa is pretty rough, no shame in losing team members to her. Clay is gonna be a challenge as well with his Excadrill, so be prepared for that.
I am somehow both a genius and a COLOSSAL dipshit>Roll through everything from Wattson to Flannery with 0 issues whatsoever, not only evolving a bunch of Pokemon, but also catching stuff like Crim. Justice, and ENT (AKA Spinda)>Delay the route about Rustboro for a guaranteed Kingdra later>Plan out the Flannery fight to near perfection. Thanks to mints and ability capsules, it should be pretty much free>Decide to make a last minute adjustment to put Horticulture over ENT. This would come back to bite me>Pelipper blows through Slugma and Flareon with no issues whatsoever, even using a Z move on the latter so I don't take too much damage before Torkoal>Narrowly miss range on Torkoal and it sets up Sun>Decide that since Flannery's going to either heal or body slam, I can go Horticulture, bait an Overheat, then get a free Pelipper switch>I forget that it sees Overheat as doing more damage to Peli at this point and it just fucking kills Hort through the Occa berry>Finish the fight easily, but lose my best Pokemon catcher immediately after>Immediately punished by accidentally killing my Mirage Tower encounter>In Norman's gym, lose ENT to a surprise Counter from a gym trainer>Sweep Norman with Entomology+Marine Bio thanks to Bulk Up/Protect shenanigansThis next split should be relatively painless, since Winona is ridiculously free and I get a ton of great encounters, but Tate and Liza split has me really nervousTate and Liza themselves are tricky in this game, but the new Maxie fight could be really, really dangerous if I don't pull a good encounter in Shoal Cave. But then again, I am guaranteed a Dewgong
>>57108086/FORGOT PIC LIKE A DIPSHIT
>>57104616Funny you mention that, because after posting my last update, I decided to roll on the Rustboro Wishing Well again after giving up my route 108 encounter and got something so heinously broken it might guarantee victory
How does /nuz/ feel about written Nuzlockes? I've seen comics crop up here every now and then especially because it was always the original Nuzlocke medium, but written stuff always seems uniquely trapped on the original forum or AO3 because of how the boom in popularity was driven by engagement-baiting youtubers.
>>57108392>Immediately get a Skitty from my next roll and then lose my 118 encounter after forgetting to stock up on Pokeballs because I spent all of them on a PorygonCarelessness will be my downfall I s2g
>>57108504>>57108090I AM MAKING ALL THE WRONG CHOICES, IT IS FUCKED BEYOND BELIEF. AND YET I PERSERVERE>During the long trek to Winona's gym, all of my mains hit their level caps, including my new main Oceanology the Kingdra>In Winona's gym, decide to test some of my new encounters on a double battle to save EXP>Proceed to lose my newly acquired Marowak (Scorched Slab), Porygon2 (New Mauville), Nidoking (Meteor Falls), Houndoom, and WATER ABSORB POLIWRATH to Bird Keeper Jared's Skarmory and overlevel Seismology the Whiscash during the fight>Also lose out on Absol because it was going to wipe me otherwise>Despite that, still manage to beat Winona thanks to Entomology once again carrying with SD and Bullet PunchBros, I'm not gonna lie. I think I'm gonna wipe. Things are getting really toughBUT I WILL STILL FIGHT. AS LONG AS I HAVE A TEAM AND A PLAN I CANNOT LOSE
>>57108410It's a way of expressing your run the same as a comic, but it's a lot more work than drawing something funny in MS Paint.
>Nacraz soloes Erika>Go get my super rod and fish up a modest Psyduck that is higher level than my entire teamGuess i found a replacement for my starter. Thinking about trying to catch and champion one of the legendary birds since i'm still lacking 2 team mates and my box is full of mons i don't want to champion yet for one reason or another
>>57109433Solid idea, but risky with legendary catch rates. Still, you gotta do what you've gotta do.
>>57108693Anon what the hell is going on in Hoenn?
The trio of early level 30s Johto gyms are over and done with, but with some unfortunate luck along the way. The gyms themselves were easy enough; Chuck, Pryce and Jasmine being soloed by Emily, Kirifuda and Margaret, respectively, but disaster struck in between Chuck and Pryce as we tried for the Lake of Rage Gyarados. I figured that Emily might be able to weaken it with Ice Punch and maybe score a lucky freeze to make capture easier, not imagining that a crit Thrash would come our way and completely wipe our unfortunate magician from full HP. This set us back a little as I had to scramble to find and train up a substitute elemental puncher, figuring that I might as well pop Nidoqueen here as I don't strictly need her anywhere else. Hopefully the Radio Tower and Clair won't come with any nasty surprises like that, but that was definitely a wake up call that I need to be more careful
>>57111515It's Emerald Seaglass, a ROMhack that gives Hoenn a GBC styled makeover. It also adds a ton of changes to existing Pokemon, including typing, movepool, and stat changesI thought this would be easy, since the game gives you so much. But I'm in hellAt least...until I finish Tate and Liza split. From there, it should be mostly easy, especially since Gatr gets the Dracovish combo
>>57112598As for why I have so many deaths? Carelessness, bad luck, and REALLY fucking rough RNG on Brawly (Flame Wheel Burn into Guts Arm Thrust from his Heracross YES HE HAS A BULK UP HERACROSS)
>tfw evolved my kadabra and destroying HG with alakazamfeels good. I believe in psychic supremacy.
>>57112350Would Ditto have been able to outlast it? I've noticed the Abra line tends to survive if you can evolve it, i guess Kadabra just doesn't have the power it needs.>>57112598I know it's a romhack, but losing FIVE mons in a single battle is "wtf is happening" tier.
made some autistic randomized challenge run generator which in its current state could generate up to 6400 different challenge runs assuming you roll twicehttps://rentry.org/pokemon-challenge-run-autism-wheelswill probably add more potential options for it to roll if anyone suggests anything
>>57109433>Golduck can't learn psychic even from TM in 3rd genSad. Got Hitmonlee from the Saffron dojo for fifth member. Next to grind up some mons just to try and catch Moltres or Articuno as the sixth member
>>57113603>I know it's a romhack, but losing FIVE mons in a single battle is "wtf is happening" tier.Yeah, I completely forgot there was a Skarm trainer in this gym with Spikes and Headbut.t. Also Skarm gets Accelrock in this gameI mean thankfully none of the encounters were treally THAT bad to lose (except Poliwrath and P2), but it still sucks
>>57113603>Would Ditto have been able to outlast it?That's who I sent out next, yeah, Ditto has so far been relegated to a wall since Metal Powder basically works as an Eviolite this gen (that actually works when transformed, which should be the standard imo). And yeah, even as a fully evolved Alakazam that still wasn't enough Defense to live a crit it seems, for some reason I thought Thrash had 70 power in Gen 2, but apparently it was always 90 until it got buffed to 120. Might not have led with Emily had I known that, but hindsight is 20/20
>>57113616Very nice anon. How long did it take to pout this together?
>>57114065Nuzlockes are just as much as knowledge game as a Pokémon game, remembering a gym leader's ace having type coverage can be the difference between losing your ace or taking it to endgame.
Haven't updated in a bit. But managed to beat the 8th gym.>Clay/Gym 5Surprisingly easy. I evolved Lilith into Lilligant for that sweet Quiver Dance, so she and Alana the Scrafty One Shoted the gym.>Skyla/Gym 6I was afraid of this fight until I got Iono the Zebstrika as my Route 7 encounter and she Solo'd the gym.>Brycen/Gym 7lol lmao ezpz>Irys/Gym 8lol lmao ezpz. Well not really. Shout outs to Luffy for soloing the gym (of all things).I led with Luffy the Ferrothorn and entered a Buff standoff again Fraxure's Dragon Dance with my Curse, until he decided to Dragon Tail me and force a switch. I was scared as shit as he one-shotted Crustle. I was calling the end of the run until Luffy showed me why he's the goat, not only outspeeding a 5x Dragon Dance Fraxure but also taking the 5x ATK Dragon Claw like a champ.I then remembered Ingrain made it so Roar didn't worked in Baton Pass strategies so I tried that and suddenly Dragon Tail did jack shit and Luffy solo'd the gym.>DeathsSmug2 the Servine got knocked out by a random trainer, sadly.Vanillish got knocked out by the first trainer in the 8th gym one-shotting it. So far the run's been incredibly easy. Granted, 2x speed while grinding makes the run much faster than usual. But it's crazy how much easier it is to play BW. Audino farming is crazy strong.Btw I got a shiny Audino out of my Shiny Clause
>>57116508forgot unnecessary pick.
>Lv. 28 Sandslash just diedJasmine's Steelix used Iron Tail during a Sandstorm and got a critical hit
Does the dupe clause counts if i get a pokemon of the same species i already got killed?
>>57116672Yes, dupe clause still applies. Also usually applies to evos, so if you already have a Zubat, you can't catch a Golbat later on.But you can tweak the rules to your own enjoyment. Your run, your rules.>>57116513Excited to see what mons you'll decide to bring into the E4 with you. I'd be worried about Marshal if I were you.
>>57116672my version is that I can't catch a Pokémon that has the pokéball symbol
>>57116763>>57116871Okay then
>>57116604Rough. Just curious, were you trying evasion strats?
>>57117977no. I totally forgot Sandslash might have Sand Veil or whatever. I just thought sandstorm decreased accuracy for some reason (I'm probably wrong).
