This is my first ever time trying a Nuzlocke, and I decided to try Platinum :)

Rules:

...

Just started today, and I'm just before the Oreburgh Gym right now. My Pokemon are:

Party:

...

Boxed:

...

Not many exciting things have happened so far. I decided to pick Chimchar because I always remembered that DPPt lacked Fire-types, and also decided to give Japanese nicknames to everything. The Lonely nature was very nice, and I got a decent Shinx and Starly early on too! I wish I would have been able to get an Abra or Budew to make the first gym much easier, but I suppose the Psyduck is better than nothing. After catching it in Oreburgh Gate, I ground there for a while until it learned Water Gun at Level 9, then massacred some Geodudes and Onixes in Oreburgh Mine. Chimchar and Starly just evolved, and in the box, I currently have an extra Starly, as well as a Bidoof and Zubat (hopefully, I won't have to use these!)
