Cortex J's Nuzlocke Challenge

[Desbear]

Mk, I'll write my first log when I beat the first Gym.

[BlazingApollo]

Hey, Cortex. I've beaten the first gym, and President Devon (that's his name right?) healed my pokemon.
Is it allowed?

btw, can you suggest a place where I can upload a ppt file? Or maybe I'll just send it through email?

if its a heal that its mandatory to continuing the story, then its allowed

EDIT: Added the last log, in the logs i will describe the Gym Leader Battles

[Yume Tsuki]

I don't know if those extra rules you set up you did on purpose but this is the actual guidelines chart:

[Tickles]

Extra rules were indeed added on purpose, to increase the difficulty. I did a lot of nuzlocke runs, and have been making tweaks to the rules, and adding more, and this is the hardest one I did after said tweaks and added rules.

[Aquashin]

Placed dead Lilipup on Dead Box

Taught Cut to Pansear

Went into Dream Lot and cut down the tree for Bianca and Munna Event

Defeated both Team Plasma Members with only Aqua

Aqua PP:
Tackle 12/35
Water Gun 11/25
Tail Whip 21/30
Focus Energy 30/30

Back to Striaton City and to Finnel, then Reached Route 3

Used 2 Potions, one each on the battles with the kid trainers with Pansage and Pansear

Went back to Pokemon Center to buy Status Healing Items and heal Aqua Paralized Status, and went back to Route 3

Saved before Battle with Cheren

Stay Tuned For More!!!

agree with cortex, we should allways make it harder, and not follow only the chart, otherwise we do it and it tastes like nothing...

EDIT: i will start putting Aqua's PP after some battles, or after each Route or City i go by

[lubbies]

im gonna try if thats ok here's my first log:

• Started fire red with bulbasaur named Hemlock (for absorb reasons mostly)
  
  Beat rival easily and leveled to lvl6
  
  retrieved potion from storage and set off.
  
  On route 1 Hemlock leveled to lvl7 and learned absorb.
  
  Reached Viridian with 3/4 health.
  
  retrieved package and finished the delivery in Pallet Town.
  
  Caught pidgey lvl3 named it flight.
  
  Leveled Flight to lvl 5 on route 1 using my potion and retrieved potion from store employee.
  
  (this is where it got tricky so I decided to skip rival battle.)

I'm hoping to get quite far in this challenge

Question

When I hypercam my run of HG, do I have to record when I simply go to grind as well or do I only record the actual story line progression?
Cause if I have to record all the grinding then those vids will be very long and boring at those parts.

[Aquashin]

Cheren sends out Snivy

Aqua uses 3 times Tail Whip, Snivy uses Growth and 2 Leer

Aqua uses Tackle and Snivy gets K.Oed

Aqua levels up to 17 and learns Razor Shell

Cheren sends out Purrloin

Aqua uses Leer and Purrloin uses Scratch

Aqua uses Razor Shell and Purrloin is K.Oed

Won agaisnt Rival Cheren

Current Party: Aqua (Oshawott) Level 17, Pansear Level 11

Record all of it. I already know how the story of HG/SS goes, so I will be looking out for battles, item uses, pokemon caught, pokemon that died, cancelled evolutions, etc. Don't worry about if it is boring, the longer it is, the better.

[Roloc]

hmm aiight but I'll be speeding my way through grinding with an emulator. Grinding at 300% speed is awesome. Will this be against the rules?


EDIT:

1.You can only catch one Pokémon per area. This includes routes, caves, forests, etc. This excludes shinies.

Do you mean the first pokemon you encounter in each area or can I look for what I want in each area?

[Shadowfred]

The usual Nuzlocke rules are the first pokemon you encounter, if you don't catch it, you can't get another from the same route/city/whatever. But Cortex might mean just one.

[Roloc]

yeah I know thats the way it usually is but I just wanted him to clarify what he meant.

[Aquashin]

the rule number one doesnt limit the rule to being "the first pokemon" it limits to 1 pokemon per area, doesnt matter if its the first or second
