https://images.plurk.com/2m7cbN7w77OijSZUPR9bDz.png Anyway I'm breaking my nuzlocke moratorium just once
Quinneapolis
the game is soul silver
Quinneapolis
the rules:
Gabiluzbad
Cyndaquil sounds like a cold and flu medication
Quinneapolis
- Basic Nuzlocke rules apply (capture first pokemon encountered on each route, pokemon die on faint, pokemon must be named)
Quinneapolis
- I can pass on pokemon if I already have one of that species/evolution line
Quinneapolis
- Heavily research gyms in advance instead of just winging it like an idiot
Quinneapolis
- I get one (1) mulligan
Quinneapolis
which means I can load a past save and undo any deaths
Quinneapolis
but only once
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/7iOS2iMrBCVdMon9OZCl5p.png let's go
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
if you catch something pink u have to name it after me
Quinneapolis
I'm probably not doing the name after friends thing
Quinneapolis
it's not been kind to me in the past
Quinneapolis
I'm just gonna go with my gut
Quinneapolis
is this one of the games where I need to get a specific item to run
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
in that case do NOT curse yourself w my presence
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
iirc you get the running shoes in the second town
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
some dude will give you a quick tour of the town and give you the running shoes
⏏️ndrusi
yeah running wasn't enabled from the start until the 3ds games but you do tend to get it early on in the ds games
⏏️ndrusi
or really, any game except fire red/leaf green, home of the Baffling Decision
Quinneapolis
OKAY run enabled
Quinneapolis
man HGSS really makes you wait to get pokeballs
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/DgwetdaBXypjDQMPnwY6C.png some dipshit wants to battle
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/1MvVPqQIXtWcj8rCP3SZuf.png shut up, loser
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/3k2CuYttKMoaI9wNANbVvZ.png doubt but okay
連続犬
let's go vulcan!!!!
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/1QSfM02XbTicqWiEcCC53Z.png oh no, crime
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/4jDn4O2slVcqNmGTWKAk2r.png you're extremely shitty cops
Quinneapolis
OK I'm not naming pokemon after friends but
Quinneapolis
who wants to be my rival
oh i'm scary
...me
Quinneapolis
I apologize in advance for everyone in the game probably misgendering you
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/1oc9l6QU78Cqb0rfooNBud.png
oh i'm scary
yeah I know it's a thing
oh i'm scary
but I will use my imagination
Quinneapolis
god these cops are on the level of chief over justice
Quinneapolis
Me: "What happened"
Quinneapolis
Cop: "YOU'RE UNDER ARREST"
Quinneapolis
Ethan: "She didn't do it"
Quinneapolis
Cop: "YOU'RE FREE TO GO"
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/2ORYkaoExy02xRuonjXpuV.png OKAY
Quinneapolis
NUZLOCKE START
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/L5fp86AnE32WsdVdczJaX.png a classic
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/1PgLShdxGmIRfGdHFYKGwV.png first recruit successful
Quinneapolis
two tips from pokemonchallenges, the world nuzlocke champion
Quinneapolis
1: for your first couple pokemon don't bother lowering their HP
Quinneapolis
you risk a nasty crit OHKO and they're really easy to catch
Quinneapolis
so you can just toss out a ball on turn 2
Quinneapolis
2: A convenient, concrete way to decide what counts as being from a separate zone in terms of things like fossils, fishing, etc
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/3uSGsuvfNEkpUYgaJkOwki.png The profile says where you met it
Quinneapolis
use the text of that line as the qualifier
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/6e7eKhvvtRfZXAXnvgqcJ7.png is red or blue the high stat
連続犬
I BELIEVE blue is the high stat
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
Blue is the higher stat
Quinneapolis
so low speed, high sp. atk
Quinneapolis
and Vulcan has... all neutral, maybe that's a starter thing
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
you get 10% extra for blue and 10% less for red
連続犬
that's not bad given my remembrance of pidgey line is they're pretty dang fast even without the extra boost
Quinneapolis
yeah even red it's the highest number
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
Nyoom
連続犬
but I don't know how many special moves you'll learn either so
Quinneapolis
not terrible but not great
連続犬
also nah iirc you CAN get starters with natures but there are some natures that are neutral
Quinneapolis
I'm reading the bulbapedia page on Foresight and still can't figure out what it does
Quinneapolis
I like that you have an animation for putting your pokemon back in your bag after using the pokecenter, that's a nice touch
連続犬
it basically neutralizes sand attack/double team
Quinneapolis
ROUTE 46
連続犬
which if this is on pidgey you aren't worried about 1/2 of those
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/7B2riJJmsw2EjJwhCycuk9.png okay a theme is developing
連続犬
BIRDS
oh i'm scary
and me as your rival even
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/3Y4ao15edgrSNSEk3Qn2Rx.png
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/6pkzGTwLt8uPYJa1B7zAnU.png neutral stats
Quinneapolis
can't lose accuracy
Quinneapolis
same ability as hot wings
Quinneapolis
I'm gonna go with the same strategy as I've used before
Quinneapolis
where for now I just focus on 2 pokemon
Quinneapolis
and I add another after each gym
Quinneapolis
so for now it's just vulcan and hot wings
Quinneapolis
ROUTE 30
Quinneapolis
of course
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/5nOFbzsqv0K39UKSIfmn2U.png
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/4SSEO5Yw4FWGwscjZoWNsS.png here he is
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/6SGsydsSMAs2u38J2oWwpO.png yes absolutely
Quinneapolis
I want to know about your rattata
𝗕𝘂𝗻𝗻𝘆 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲
God I love this kid
連続犬
YEAAAAH
Quinneapolis
OK this is dumb but
Quinneapolis
I don't know where to go...
Quinneapolis
route 30 seems to be a dead end
Quinneapolis
until I get a cut HM
Quinneapolis
oh shit vulcan learned a fire move
oh i'm scary
can you show us the screen where the dead end is
Quinneapolis
oh wait I found a gap in a ledge
oh i'm scary
okay
oh i'm scary
I thought it'd be something like that
Quinneapolis
ROUTE 31
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/3uqTvywaaWbMcp896we9jL.png
oh i'm scary
it's no Dingdong, but there was only one Dingdong
連続犬
Bellsprout! Good pull
連続犬
decent type coverage
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/XoE8CQivaOuQr2oOcdHMf.png no doing this dungeon yet but
Quinneapolis
let's get a pokemon
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/5dPJFEekbfTx3s64sedtgk.png no surprise here
連続犬
Dwayne
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/6IW5wTCvt62tKPjan7A6zK.png hmm
Quinneapolis
nah
Quinneapolis
onix isn't really all that useful
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/7EXMjn1RyTPYyGNS2pwqPf.png OKAY let's see
Quinneapolis
weak to ice, elec, and rock
Quinneapolis
I have none of those moves
Quinneapolis
flying moves are strong against grass, fighting, and bug
Quinneapolis
so daisy is a nonstarter
Quinneapolis
but my main two should be good for now
Quinneapolis
boss has a lv13 pidgeotto... that's a little scary
Quinneapolis
my pokemon are at 11 and 8
Quinneapolis
I'll grind up a little
Quinneapolis
actually I can grind against the gym trainers
Quinneapolis
oh I have to go to sprout tower
Quinneapolis
ROUTE 32
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/6FigiCl9aOGQeXWSpVqof8.png
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/GhMHGpDHIJEYrPiyJRAhO.png OK
Quinneapolis
I have one pokemon with a non-normal move
Quinneapolis
oh good, hot wings learned gust
Quinneapolis
a stab move that takes advantage of that boosted sp.atk
Quinneapolis
oh hey there are random encounters in here
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/7zr182Opx1FgZ95wTbUQC0.png
Quinneapolis
man, sprout tower sages
Quinneapolis
did you know
Quinneapolis
that pokemon other than lv3 bellsprouts exist
Frozen Time
level 4 bellsprouts???
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/2Y4fCmFhVFAU7vTrielNWK.png oh hey raven
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/6CTK3JDFPQ8D1pdxEoVBrP.png raven why are you so mean to pokemon
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/4anoSrpRK5oa87i5X7yEtS.png he has a level SEVEN bellsprout
ғᴏxʏᴍᴏʀᴏɴ
super late but
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/5tsbQk63Px5xAfKUAC5qUr.png that was fast
ғᴏxʏᴍᴏʀᴏɴ
one time i was doing a randomizer thing where even character names got randomized and so silver had... someone's name, i don't even remember, but it was a feminine name
ғᴏxʏᴍᴏʀᴏɴ
so i was writing it as
oh i'm scary
yeah all the Johto starters evolve at slightly wacky levels
ғᴏxʏᴍᴏʀᴏɴ
'silver's transmasc and fucking despises me for having seen his deadname on his id'
ғᴏxʏᴍᴏʀᴏɴ
which, like, fair
ғᴏxʏᴍᴏʀᴏɴ
STILL A DICK, BUT AT LEAST THE PERSONAL GRUDGE AGAINST ME IS UNDERSTANDABLE
Quinneapolis
GYM TIME
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/1lcO3vnkqT1Elo8F3h4zoa.png wheeze
Quinneapolis
was not expecting fury attack crits
Quinneapolis
Vulcan will be handling thsi gym
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/163uwvlYJN0cpTcjYwLnYC.png https://images.plurk.com/6DEpDL4cn8VkKZhcUs6BD4.png here we GO
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/7fe9h71yzL13z0lwU8qfD.png all burn
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/QNGcF0HMRGCIMxEjbYJLo.png
Quinneapolis
stupid roost
Quinneapolis
I'm in a loop
Quinneapolis
ember + burn damage exactly counters out roost
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/4cCaK6Sae5XKZkxBc3gP35.png loop broken
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/7tUqONS6vko6mY1Qfiq0P.png first gym down
Quinneapolis
next stop azalea town
Quinneapolis
except not I'm gonna check out dark cave first
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/1qcOkRmyGZJbeHyIIplbp5.png 🥚
⏏️ndrusi
in the worst case, ember also has way more pp than roost so the loop was bound to end in your favor eventually
Quinneapolis
https://images.plurk.com/5NgZQCJZlycbUEEBYuMtA2.png end of session team status
Lightning Bolt
