Location: Celadon City
Current Team:
Squirty (level 34) Bite / Water Gun / Tail Whip / Protect
Lately, he hasn't had very much confidence and has been a bit of a sour puss because he's starting to lag behind in levels. He wants to prove himself to Blue somehow... He refuses to co-operate with anyone on the team.
Isabelle (level 37) Wing Attack / Quick Attack / Whirlwind / Featherdance
A real powerhouse on the team, but that isn't evident from her nurturing and motherly behavior. She cares a lot for everyone, and is defensive for all her teammates. Ever since evolving into a Pidgeot, she's finally been happy with her haircut.
Freida (level 36) PsyBeam / Sleep Powder / Stun Spore / Poison Powder
Freida has gotten over her trauma, and participates in battles again. Due to her time off spent just with her thoughts, she was able to refine her Psychic powers and learn the powerful PsyBeam attack which brought down the grunts in the Rocket Casino. She's gone back to a more carefree and "go with the flow" attitude, but she takes battles very seriously now. Her powders have proved time and time again to be life savers.
Lucky (Level 36) Thunderbolt / Bite / Double Kick / Sand Attack
Received as an Eevee from some random dude, Lucky is very well-mannered and nice. Quickly proving his worth to be on the team, he evolved in the rocket base to a Jolteon who's proficiency with Thunderbolt has shown that beneath that cute, noble exterior lies a true battler. Due to his lovable nature, he's made friends with everyone pretty quickly (Except Squirty).
Digger (level 34) Dig / Mud Slap / Rock Tomb / Fury Swipes
Remains relatively quiet, and alone with his 3 heads. He's quick in getting the job done. There is a rivalry between him and Squirty, that Squirty kinda made up. Digger thinks Squirty is an idiot.
Bruce (level 25) Jump Kick / Rolling Kick / Brick Break / Inner Focus
A very calm and quiet Pokemon. He spends most of his time refining his powerful kick attacks, and meditating. He usually mediates the arguments between Digger and Squirty. Though he is very serious and quiet, he wishes to be more of a "people" Pokemon and attempts to make people laugh... Usually at the wrong time.
Boxed:
Nosferatu the Zubat, level 7
Jillian the Jigglypuff
Geo the Geodude
Volcheck the Voltorb
Eric the Arbok
Venus the Oddish
Paris the Meowth
Fallen:
Manny the Mankey, Level 12
Part 6: Double Trouble: Isabelle Vs. The Fighting Dojo and Beauty Erica!
-KERPOW- -CLUNK- -HOO- -HA- -BAM-
Wings wide, Isabelle stands in the dojo surrounded by knocked out Machops, Machokes, Mankeys, and Primeapes. Their trainers shocked at how quickly they all fell. "Well, she's a bird. And you're slow... So..."
"WHO DARES DISTRUPT THE DOJO MASTERS TRAINING?!" Someone yells from the back (I assume the Dojo Master) and a Hi Jump Kick comes straight for me! Isabelle gusts the Hitmonlee away. Just then, a Hitmonchan tries to strike with an uppercut discharging electricity! Isabelle quickly barrel rolls out of the way and strikes with a Wing Attack knocking Hitmonchan down. Hitmonlee comes back with a final jump kick. Isabelle quickly dodges again and grabs onto Hitmonlee's leg with her talon. She brings him to the ground, swings him around, and throws him away.
"SUCH POWER AND GRACE" yells the Dojo Master.
"hurr durr what are you doing Saffron is being taken over..."
"-hmp- Ever since Sabrina moved in and stole our title, nobody respects us. Why should we save them?"
"Well... I guess"
"Such a powerful trainer, please, as a token for defeating the fighting dojo take this Hitmonlee and spread the word of the fighting spirit! Don't let those Psychic assholes think they're so good"
And with that, I take Bruce the Hitmonlee and we head towards Celadon City to finally get that badge.
Isabelle pretty much totally owned Erica's gym. Wing Attack OHKO'd everything. Except Erica's Victreebel survived with minimal HP and used Stun Spore which missed lol... Another pretty easy gym battle! And that creeper infront of the gym finally got arrested... Isabelle evolved in the final battle with Erica, which is nice.
Instead of saving Saffron from TR (Someone has to do...) I decide to go to the Safari Zone to catch a few new Pokemon. Come on, not like anyone will die in Saffron. They can sit and chill for a few more hours or so.
Too bad that Snorlax is blocking my path >:(. We go down the Quiet Bridge owning any fishermen, and think of a way to get this thing out of the way. In Boredom, I try playing that PokeFlute... Lo and behold, it wakes up Snorlax! "Guess my playing was bad enough to wake anything rite lol"
Armed with a Chesto berry, Hitmonlee strikes with a quick kick knocking Snorlax down to half heath and flinching him. Another kick gets him into Critical, but Snorlax rests off the damage and wakes up immediately thanks to his own Chesto. Bruce attacks with another Rolling Kick and misses while Snorlax infectiously yawns... Making Bruce and get drowsy. Bruce eats his Chesto so he doesn't pass out, and tries another Rolling Kick and Snorlax Body Slams Bruce. Weakened, Bruce musters up his strength and fires his leg right into Snorlax's belly, causing Snorlax to flinch again. I take this moment to launch a Great Ball which catches the Snorlax (lol, first time Snorlax has ever stayed in the first ball thrown... And it was my only Great Ball at the time, too!).
Snorlax decides to go sleep somemore and eat a ton over at Oak's ranch. I might call on him later, but for know he can go lounge.
Now... OFF TO THE SAFARI ZONE!

Activity Post.
I have beaten the E4 but have taken a break in my HG adventure due to me undertaking time consuming adventures to upgrade the Team. (Hint: Fuk Palmer)
The plus side to all of this is that I will be doing a Fire Red run since everyone thinks its really hard.
I will update my HG adventures over tim. I am planning to pace my updates so that when I update my fight with the Elite 4 here I will be ready to progress on HG (on my DS)
And I will be updating my Fire Red ramdomly since I have kinda just started on it.
Wish me Luck!
EDIT Just got Beaten by Gary RESTART
EDIT 2 Got Beaten Again
EDIT 3 Finally beat Gary... and got poisoned
EDIT 4 YES BEAT Gary. will write up a story soon

Yeah update Fire Red style!
Rules I think will be the same as my HG Nuzlocks so I will C+P then in later.
Anyway.
I woke up to my mother gently shaking me awake. "Ella its time". I roll out of bed and wander into a shower. I know that I am 18 now so I am able to pick my own pokemon. I wonder what pokemon I will pick.
After a hot shower I take a stroll around the small village before deciding to venture into the grass. "Wait" and old man yells out. After some so discussion it turns out that he is Profeser Oak and has the pokemon I can choose from. He takes me over to his lad where I meet my Rival, Gary. I have never liked Gary, he is pretty nasty and a sexist pig on top of all his other faults. Oak instructs me to pick a pokemon and i do so. I grap a ball at random and out ops a little turtle. I name it Zed because its a cool band I like to listen too. Gary picks up a Bulbasaur and challenges me to a battle, confident of his victory. Unfortunatly for him Zed is able to take down Bulbasaur after a little difficulty. In the end not a Critical hit Tackle could take out my remaining health before Zed tackled him one last time earning me my first ever Victory.
Gary leaves looking disgusted. I leave as well and start training up Zed. I play Delivery Girl at Virdian City but it pays off as I gain a Pokedex and a Town Map out of the deal. I realise that the E4 is very close so I got to take a look at the strongest trainers in Kanto. I meet a Mankey which I try to catch but I accidently Crit it and thus kill it. II do mange to catch a Pidgey which I name Silverbolt which I train up as well. I encounter Gary near the League and Beat him too easily. Zed took down the Pidgey while Silverbolt took down Bulbasaur.
Justice served again I leave for Pewter City via the dangerous Viridian Forest.
My Passage through the forest was swift and I encountered no problems. I even added another pokemon to my party, a Catapie which I named Monarch in preparation for the Butterfly I hoped it would bcome. Broak proved very simple as Water Gun killed his team easily and I moved on to Mt Moon, impressed with my teams power. I fought many trainers on my way to Mt Moon and Pidgey proved very strong. However its overconfidence was its undoing. After killing a female Nidoran Its poison point activated thus Poisoning Pidgey.With nothing to hand I could only dash to the pokemon centre. Pidgey held on till I reached the door of the pokemon centre before dying in my arms. Tears welled up in my eyes. Silverbolt had been a great friend to me and now it was gone. It was with great sadness when I buried him outside the pokemon centre and moarned my lost friend.
After reganiing my composure I carried on. I came accross a Mankey, this time I was more careful and I was able to catch it. I named it Chuck and continued onwards. Monarch evolved twice while Zed also evolved. I entered Mt Moon and caght a Zubat which I named RBG. After many adventures I finally escaped the cave and entered Cerulean City. I caught a Ratatta and named it Nip. I then faced off against Gary for the third time. I had much more difficlty this time with Nip dying to his much stronger pokemon. I managed to fight of saddness long enough to beat Gary. Not sticking around I left while I buried by fallen friend Nip. My second member to fall I promised that I would try harder to aviod defeat. I then expaned by team catching both a Abra (Deep Blue) and an Oddish (Rose). The trainers were tough but my pokemon were stronger, hardened by their loss. I rescued Bill and Then challenged the Gym. Misty was swept by Rose (who had newly evolved into a Gloom) and Zed who teamed up quite nicely. I then made my way to Vermillion City catching a Meowth (Pussy) and Diglet (DJD) before finally taking a break before entering the fancy ship. Before entering the ship however I found a Pidgey outside the city. Remembering my lost friend I decided to try again. I captured him and decided to take him along.

Ok just read this through and have restarted My soul silver Question in Point, If a shiny appears and it is not the first pokemon in that area are you allowed to catch it?
You can but you cannot use it, dont ditch a shiny pokemon just for these rules. :P
Good good =) much serbii reading and planning now ensues lol
Short Platinum update:
I'm on my way to challenge Volkner, and Leviathan finally got Dragon Dance :D
Unfortunately, I will probably not have Internet for 10 days or so, so I'll update on whether I win or lose, and on who dies when I get back. If I lose to the E4 twice, then I'll just try to solo them with a lv. 50 Azelf or Giratina, depending on whichever's nature is better. If I lose then, I'll just start a FireRed run, or maybe an Omega or Emerald 386 if I can find them.
Edit: F*** FireRed Omega on a Nuzlocke. The normal version is hard enough as it is...

Tailow actually gets a flying move without having to grind to hell and back.
Early on, too. Wing Attack is immensely useful
Dustox will have good enough stats by the time you reach Brawly, and can resist his attacks while using Confusion and Harden.
Right.
Neither can most of Norman's team. Verrry lucky catch if you can keep it alive.
Aye, great wall to Norman. My only complaint about Sableye being used there is that it can't do much to them either. :/
Toxic your way to victory while pecking at them with whatever attacks Sableye gets.
If a level 20 Dustox with Toxic & Protect can do that, I'm sure a Sableye can.
Rock Smash to victory!
I'm dropping my "you can buy two Pokeballs max from each PokeMart" rule. It seems as if Ruby gives you plenty of free Pokeballs.
Don't have enough of a memory to start a story, but when I'm done with Fire-red (wow, no surprise there) I'll try to start something new.
Hey guys! I'm going to start my own Nuzlocke challenge tonight. It will be a live ustream.
For the upcoming few weeks, I will be streaming the Nuzlocke challenge of various Pokemon games over ustream. This will be 7-9PM EST. Come on down, help me nickname the Pokemon, and have a good time before summer ends! Ideally, I'd like to get through one game in each generation.
Here's the link: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/heathenheatran-nuzlocke

I hope we get a decent sized crowd. Spread the news!

I think Serebii has a few nuzlockes, maybe I'll post the link in there a little later.
Yep, i made the Nuzlocke Thread at serebii in the D/P Section :)
Anyways, my continuous grinding for my Scramblocke is nearly over. Just posting the levels.
Steelix:lv.50
Ampharos:lv.50
Gengar:lv.50
Octillery:lv.45
Dugtrio:lv.44
Magneton:lv.45
A scramblocke?
How does that work?
Umm..... if you look like 20 pages back, i get 12 Pokemon unlike the usual 6 from the Scramble thread. Then i order them and just have the faint=death rule.... i made it up so yea....
This is the rules and stuff i posted in my first post:
Here is the party i received from the Smogon scramble thread:
1. Ampharos - Fire Punch+Thunder Punch
2. Onix - Caught+Evolve after soloing Bugsy at level <13
3. Tentacool - Can evolve after using constrict in two gym battles+Constrict
4. Magnemite - Evolve before Chuck+Evolve again after Misty (343Guilty possibly)+Spark
5. Clefable - Magic Guard+Double-edge.
6. Gastly - Can evolve into Gengar right before the 8th gym leader. Must know Focus Punch.
7. Diglett - Safari Zone+Arena Trap+Earthquake+Evolve after 32 spc.attk evs.
8. Venomoth - Signal Beam+3 non-directly damaging moves
9. Forretress
10. Skarmory - Steel Wing+No spikes+2 tms
11. Eevee - Evolve to corresponding HP. If none, then it stays a eevee
12. Octillery - No surf in battle+Only physical moves after evolving at lv.25 which it must be taught.
Here are the rules i will be following:
*I need 12 Pokemon
*I can order these twelve Pokemon how ever i want, in terms of order of use
*Once one of my Pokemon faints, i must put it in a box labeled 'dead' (i don't like releasing them)
*Once someone 'dies', i replace it with the next Pokemon in the order.
*I may need to repost later to get more Pokemon, because more than 12 might 'die'
*No loading the game when one of my Pokemonz dies (i was allowed to load in my last nuzlocke i did and it reduced the fun)

Well, the first stream just finished, and it was a lot of fun. 2 hours, and I didn't beat brock. :P
Anyways, I'll hopefully be doing this daily. Come back to my channel, 7-9 Eastern for more Nuzlocke goodness.
