A Rusty Beginning | Inclement Emerald Nuzlocke (Part 1)

0:00:00 - Stream and Gameplay Starts 1:52:50 - Break Starts 2:02:00 - Break Ends (and I forgot to turn on my mic [don't worry, I've fixed the problem for the next video(s) and future streams]) This is a Pokémon Inclement Emerald Nuzlocke challenge run with custom rules and a hybrid format: some sessions are streamed live, while others are played offline and uploaded throughout the week. Join live on Twitch when you can, or follow along here on YouTube. Core Nuzlocke Rules 1. One catch per route —1 catch per area/route — I can pick my encounter, but it still counts. Caves w/ floors = separate areas. Pokemon Centers are their own area. 2. If a Pokémon faints, it’s dead. It must be released (or permanently boxed in a “grave” box. Also, I reset only if PC’s empty). 3. Nicknaming Rule — every Pokémon must be nicknamed to strengthen my emotional connection (and my pain when they die). Additional / Custom Rules 1. Level Caps w/room -- I’ll still train fairly, but not artificially stop at gym levels. I allow myself to go 1 or 2 levels over the ace pokemon to keep it interesting and challenging, though more in my favor. 2. No Duplicates (Dupes Clause) — if my first encounter is something I've already caught, I can reroll until I find something new. 3. No legendaries. 4. No items in battle (held only). 5. Shiny Clause active. 6. Gift Clause: Gift Pokémon are “free” encounters (they don’t count as the encounter for that area). 7. Rather than counting a whiteout as a loss, I will continue with a new team of Pokémon from my box. Follow Me on Twitch:   / ryn4life   Thumbnail art includes fan art of Mega Rayquaza.
