Doing this again, eh? Let's Play Nuzlocke Platinum! Updated!
« on: March 14, 2012, 01:56:44 am »

Yep, I'm at it once more folks, so let's see how long this takes to complete.


"Fuck off."  ~Sincerely Giratina

Alright people, you should all know the drill already:  I'm doing a Nuzlocke run of my personal favorite Pokemon game.

~Da Rules~
1.  Death is Permanent.  If one of my guys' dies, they're going in the box.
2.  One per route.  I catch the first I see, so long as it's new.
3.  Nickname all these guys.
4.  I'm going to allot myself THREE retries if I get whited out.  I reset to the earliest save(state) before whatever wiped me, out of the danger zone that did it.  If I die, I'm to revert to that state and not die again god dammit.
5.  I'm allowed to catch legendaries, but I'm not to use them or nickname them.

~Update Times~
There should be an update once every one to two weeks, with more depending on how I feel about it.



Name that Pokemon!
If you guys want something with a particular name, say so in the thread!  If I encounter and catch it, it'll receive that name.  Simple, no?  I'll keep this spot open for any potential buddies.

Who the hell are we and what are we gonna pick!
I'm actually going to answer that for us:  I've picked the girl as the trainer.
God damn you google, I did not want Dawn hentai

As for the starter?  I decided to go random.  I'll be rolling a standard die for the choice with these as the results: 1-2 is Turtwig, 3-4 is Chimchar, 5-6 is Piplup.

They all still need names, though!  The trainer, and one for our first bud.

So, who's ready to start the next challenge run then?  Give me your choices for names!

Girl must have a masculine name. No exceptions, period.

Then Jean is good. You have your masculine name and I have my feminine. Win-win.

Florence is a good name for a Pokemon. I insist we get one named Florence sooner or later.

Jean gets my vote too. I vote Piplup, but not sure on a name.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Jean is fine, too.

For critter names, go with species-appropriate foods, to get you in the right mood of expendibility. For chimchar, at least, Bushmeat. For Turtwig, Calipash. Not finding any interesting food-related names for penguins, though. Still, the idea comes across.

Fluff says all dead pokemon are to be cooked and fed to the rest :)

We need a not-Chimchar, obviously. Because they are terrible. I vote piplup.

Thus we need names for all three.

Update One~



Yay for first update!  No Pokemon yet, but tell me what you all think?  And does anyone know of a better DS emulator than No$GBA?  It has issues when I take screenshots, it seems.  And I'll edit out the lower half of the screens later, I just wanted to get this out to you guys first.

Also:  The die has spoken:



I have a name for him already as well - I kinda despised all the ones you guys gave, no offense.  You'll see next update~
