IT IS TIME!
I wanted to do a Platinum Nuzlocke and upload it to youtube, however, I own a P.O.S. Dell. So since when I run the game on the emulator, it looks like its in slow motion so I will not be doing that. =/ I will instead be doing something different (and possibly better :]). I will now do a Gaunt-Locke run for Pokemon Platinum! In other words, a Gauntlet and Nuzlocke challenge AT THE SAME DAMN TIME. After reading all these posts, it has driven me to do this. I'm not trying to bite off of DEMo, but I like the idea of restrictions in a Nuzlocke. I never knew about Nuzlocke challenges until i saw Haydunn's and decided they were cool as fuck. Without further a due, here it is:
Catridge: Platinum
How Far I will go in the game: Through the Post Game, defeating all Legendaries along the way
Difficulty: HARDCORE CHALLENGES ONLY
Trading Capability: I have HeartGold, but i rather not trade.
GameShark/Action Replay Capabilities: None
Nuzlocke Challenge: I can only catch the first pokemon in a new area. If a pokemon faints, it is considered dead. I must then put it in a box that has a title that refers to anything meaning death. No legendaries will be used. Shinies defy the usable rule =] (I have never seen one in any pokemon game I have played in 15 years though ='[)
Gauntlet Challenges: Cannot restrict what Pokemon I can have, but can restrict how they are used.
Number of Gauntlets: 4 Game long Gauntlets. Then 2 for each Gym. Then 3 for the Elite 4/Champion.
I should not of made these challenges hardcore. Whatever, in the words of the legendary Leroy Jenkins, at least I ain't chicken!

Anyway, as for your game long challenge, here it is: You can only use Not Very Effective attacks for all major battles (i.e., Rival Battles, Legendaries, E4, Champion, Boss Battles, etc). That should be a real kick-in-the-pants for you. Have fun

Place that pokemon in your Death Box. It is considered "dead'. Pokemon that die this way do not add Plague Counters.

Basically, you cannot use a pokemon above level 12. If it grows to level 13 during the battle, it must switch out.

Link in my signature as always.
@G-Von, well done man! That is quite the acheivement there. I'll give you something for your next gym if no one else beats me to it, give me a minute.
EDIT: You are challenged to use no Grass types against Gardenia. Normally this wouldn't be hardcore but combined with your other challenges... well I just took away your only resist and probably your only chance of getting past her :P
