So I restarted my Black Nuzlocke, and its going pretty good so far. Started with Oshawott, who has been fucking awesome. Im not gonna do any fanfic or anything, but i just beat the second gym (Lenora), with no real losses (only Fodder the Purrloin) and no fighting types. Well I would've had a fighting type, as the first pokemon i found outside Pinwheel was a Timburr, but a Crit water gun from my then oshawott OHKO'd
Team
Gohan the Dewott (M)
Lvl. 21
Ability: Torrent
Quiet Nature
-Retaliate
-Water Gun
-Razor Shell
-Rock Smash
Gohan has done incredible so far. He has been bulky when needed, tanking critical hit Tackles from Lillipups and such. The Quiet Nature gives him an amazing SpA of around 46 (guesstimating), which is the highest attacking stat on the time. Overall, Water has had amazing neutral coverage throughout the game, and Gohan has been an incredibly reliable tank to take down even the toughest foes.
Jared the Herdier (M)
Lvl. 21
Ability: Intimidate :D
Serious Nature
-Take Down
-Retaliate
-Tackle
-Bite
So powerful and bulkyth. Take Down can mega destruct anything. He was key in helping me take down Lenora's Watchog, as I foddered my Purrloin on the boosted Retaliate, then took it out by Intimidating it with Jared. Take Down hits like a truck at this point, although it has felt like it has about 60% Accuracy. Despite this, Jared can take on almost anything, as foes are primarily physical, and Intimidate lets him out damage his foes easily.
Pluto the Drilbur (M)
Lvl. 21
Ability: Sand Force
Sassy Nature
-Metal Claw
-Dig
-Fury Swipes
-Rock Smash
Yeah, I abused Repels until a dust cloud appeared, but whatever, nobody said thats against the rules. Before it got Dig, I mostly grinded Drilbur, as it just didn't hit hard enough despite having the highest Attack and Speed on the team. Rock Smash let me kill Audino's quickly, though. However, once Dig came, Drilbur became a monster, easily OHKOing many fragile first stage pokemon. Even with the Sassy Nature, its still fast enough to outspeed most things, and its also fairly bulky at this point. Incredibly useful pokemon.
Lillil the Petilil (F)
Lvl. 19
Ability: Chlorophyll
Modest Nature
-Mega Drain
-Leech Seed
-Sleep Powder
-I forget, I think its Synthesis or something. Never use this move
The most recent addition to my team, and she looks promising. To my disappointment, I caught a Cottonee in Pinwheel. However, after I caught it, I realized I could trade for this beast. Once she gets Giga Drain and Quiver Dance, she can just put stuff to sleep and set up on everything. However right now, she's a slow, albeit powerful, pokemon who can outstall anything with her multitude of draining moves.
Diablo the Pansear (M)
Lvl. 12
Ability: Gluttony
Hardy Nature
-Incinerate
-Lick
-Scratch
-Some other shitty move
I have not touched this since Cilan. Its my only remaining fodder mon though, so I will find a good use for Diablo when I don't want a more important mon to die.
Going through the forest now. Don't want to lose anything important. Im hoping to get a Darumaka and/or Scraggy in the Desert.
