Welcome to the Paldealocke, my first play of Pokemon Violet as a casual Hardcore Nuzlocke using only new Pokemon/regional variants! This ended up being a really fun run with lots of twists and turns, so I wanted to upload the full thing :) Rules of the Run: catch only the first thing I see in any named area, as defined by the "Caught at:" status screen* if I get to Area Zero, I let myself get the first Paradox mon I see play on "set mode" (no switching out after a Pokemon is killed, until the new Pokemon has been sent in no excessive overleveling for each major gym/battle (a loose rule since this is a blind first play) if a Pokemon dies, it is permanently boxed and cannot be used anymore* if I catch something with Revival Blessing, I can use the Revival to either revive one Pokemon midbattle, or retry one battle if I wipe with knowledge no in-battle items (held items OK) can only use Pokemon from Paldea (new Pokemon or regional variants) if I catch a Paldean shiny, I can use it as an extra life for that Pokemon! can not catch Pokemon from Tera Raids (Tera Raid grinding is OK) free Terastilization in-battle must play on a fresh save file (limits when items are available and other small things) run must collect all badges and end all stories run ends at AI Turo! This is a pretty casual hardcore nuzlocke, mostly meant to spice up my first playthrough of this generation, but also show off some cool new strats this gen :) Enjoy!
