Nuzlocke

Rules

Here are my slightly modified Nuzlocke Challenge rules:

  • Can only (try to) catch the first pokemon encountered in each area
    • Pokemon encountered before obtaining pokeballs don't count
    • Encountered pokemon from evolutionary lines already caught don't count
  • Once a pokemon faints it must be released
  • Nickname all caught pokemon
  • Pokemon whose level is above that of the next gym leader's highest level pokemon can't be used
    • Levels: 14, 21, 24, 29, 43, 43, 47, 50, 63 (elite four), 75 (elite four rematch)
  • Each badge grants one "life"
    • A life can be used to negate having to release a fainted pokemon
  • After three failed runs, the challenge is considered unsuccessful
