Question about rule three: It say's you have to either release a dead pokemon, or Store it until the end of the game. Does this mean at the end of the game that we can use the 'dead' pokemon, or something else?

Le EDIT: Nvm, I just read the last rule.

Well, either you can't use it until you complete the chalenge (which is the extra rule at the bottom), or use a Max revive when/if you find one.

For those that want their own story, you must record from start to end. Breaking any of the rules means no epic story of you challenge completion. Everyone else who is just doing it, good luck.

4. You can't allow a pokemon to evolve after level 45. After that, evolutions are fair game.

I'm guessing you mean "before level 45".

With rule 8, I feel like it's defeating the purpose of a Nuzlocke run. The point is that you have a limited number of pokemon, if you can just revive them whenever they die then what's the point of them dying in the first place?

I see your point. Alright, the max revive rule is cancelled. If it dies, it dies.

Shadowfred, i think i know why he putted the Max Revive Rule

since Max Revive its something you can only find 2 or 3, it could give a fair shake of the challenge, think about it... for example, if a person its on the 8th gym badge with 3 lvl 43 pokemon, you get defeated, then you have to train pokemon you have on the box that might be even more lower lvl and no EV's with Wild Encounters which will take a LONG time to lvl up to 43 again, that defeats the morale of the player...

Actualy Aqua, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think as soon as all your pokemon faint it's "game over".

Also: I didn't even get the first badge and one of my pokemon died. DAMMIT!

Yeah, that happens. I already lost my pidgey. Poor thing, was at lv 2, didn't even reach 3. But anyways, my cyndaquil is currently at lv 17, and I have a bellsprout at 15.

Yeah, and I've had nothing but failed results in catching pokemon, so I still only have my Torchic. But for the next capture, I think I'm going to push my luck and throw a pokeball as soon as I see a pokemon in the next area.

I think I'll give this challenge a shot.
A question about the rule number 2, is it allowed to heal pokemon in houses (like in the first city, or a resting area, etc) or people that will heal your pokemon for free?

Ah, since my gameboy screws up and deletes every time I save, I'll just play Pokemon Emerald in an emulator, won't use save state (except for saving the game progress, since saving the normal way OFTEN deletes my save file again and again).  Is it allowed?

*chooses Torchic as a starter and named it Advantura*


Final Examination is coming faster than I thought D:

i could do it with LiveStream but i want to play Black Version for this, its more of a challenge

Btw, Oshawott's name its Aqua^^

EDIT: to answer BlazingApollo, i think heal houses are out as well since they do the same as pokemon center
