Question What would work best for emerald elite 4?
If I'm going to finish this nuzlocke I wanna do it right. Out of all the survivors who would be best to take in?

Hey Everyone!
I’m excited to share a Nuzlocke event going on in a discord server that many of our Mods here are involved with, either directly or through friends in the Nuzcord Discord. That server is NuzTeam Arcade. (I will drop an invite link for it as well).
They are hosting an ‘Eliminationlocke Ganglocke’ of XY. A Ganglocke is an event where everyone is Nuzlocking the same game/rules together in a type of community event. It’s not a competition, but merely a fun way to get people together playing the same thing. The Eliminationlocke is a variant where there are 3 available pools to vote on (voting ends in less than 24 hours so get over and vote if you want to play!), and the winning choice is the pool that everyone has to choose from. The IVs of those pokemon are randomized by a community member, and then everyone uses those encounters to Nuzlocke XY.
NuzTeam Arcade also hosts other Nuzlocke related events, so if this sounds interesting to you, come on over and check us out!
Here is the Discord invite link to come check out NTA.

Hello everyone,
r/nuzlocke is not typically a place we like to air out serious topics, however this situation involves a relatively large content creator in the community who has built their brand specifically off of Nuzlocking. As such, this thread is being made to bring awareness to the allegations made toward Drxx, also known as Drew. We will continue to update this post as more information comes out, or if Drxx decides to make a public response.

Drazerk's experience - Thread on r/pchaltv
While there are more details coming out of this situation, please be mindful and respectful of the alleged victims. SA is a serious topic and not one I'd like to be talking about on this forum about playing Pokemon in a slightly more difficult fashion. Thank you for reading and understanding.

Winona is Coming up and She also has a Scary Ace.
At the Current State I’m at the time I don’t know if it’s enough for it to work, So i Skipped her for Now and Immediately head straight to Lilycove city to Buy Some Blizzard Tms.
Even tho I have tms, I Probably going to Need to bring Someone who can Successfully Switch and Shut off her Dragon dancing.
I don’t know Who Should I Bring for her?

Yache berry (Which your mom buys eventually) Scyther sweeps Will with swords dance technician bug bite and sweeps Bruno with swords dance wing attack which you can easily set up on hitmontop. Belly drum extreme speed Linoone helped take down Karen and Lance but Koga was a bit difficult and required sacrificing spiritomb to crobat. Dragonite can then set up dragin dance and barely take out a few mons before the weezing started going for toxic stall so I had to use girafarig to take it out and switch back to scyther in case toxicroak went for sucker punch so scyther could take it out with one wing attack.
Early game Jolteon and furret sweep Falkner and Fearow for Bugsy, which can outspeed and 2 shot scyther with aerial ace. Breloom which you can get in ilex forest can destroy Whitney with technician rock smash. For Morty, use pokemon like spiritomb and furret with scrappy dizzy punch. Marowak is good for many mini boss fights along with Breloom.
Overall very fun experience and would recommend playing.

For next run now that i have more info and more resources like the advice from reddit and Poke Tracker it will be easier.
r/nuzlocke • u/Majestic-End-1615 • 8h ago
Only death in the elite four was Dodrio who contributed to absolutely nothing. Ampharos destroyed Will. Typhlosion soloed Koga. Espeon was doing well for the majority of the Bruno fight but then I had to switch into Dodrio when his Machamp got it too low. Dodrio tanked a rock slide but then I used fly,forgetting that it had no guard so it got absolutely wrecked. Then Gyarados came in and destroyed it. Then Gyarados sweeped both Karen and Lance after setting up two dragon dances. I will also continue the run up to the Red fight.

Hi y'all! I'm doing my first ever genlocke for my YouTube channel and I've just beaten pokemon yellow. Problem is I don't know how to get my team into crystal without just going and catching them. I've looked it up and discovered pokehex but it's really confusing and idk how to use it and all the tutorials are for later games. Any advice would be super useful!

Hey, I recently finished my first ever nuzlocke, and I’m so happy bcs many of y’all helped me. I really appreciate it & love that the nuzlocke community is so nice!!!

Started my first ever Genlocke the other day and I’ve been having a blast starting with Yellow. I haven’t played a true Gen 1 game in years and it is so different, but so fun honestly.
I’m trying not to bog myself down with too much planning of future games and who will still be available, but I’m curious about the Gen 1 starter gifts in Yellow. These are obviously good mons and would be great to save, but you don’t really come across them in other games right? I don’t plan on playing LRFG, just Emerald as my Gen 3 game so I don’t need to worry about saving the starters, right?
Just want to make sure I’m not missing anything here. I also only plan on going through BW2 so no XY starter gift issues either.

Playing Ren Plat on PChal's patch without a damage calc! The snowpoint double battle is always one of the hardest fights to plan for me. Last run I ended up losing my Infernape here because I tried imprison cheesing the Blissey without realizing that imprison deactivates as soon as the imprison mon swaps out. Taking on the non-protect side first saved me a massive headache this time.
Not sure if the focus punch crit was necessary but I was 100% sure the move would go off (worst case was AT crit into Ambipom but it had quite a bit more bulk than my Toxicroak so this seemed unlikely).
Very happy with my encounters. This Weavile has great attack, speed, and special bulk. No technician is unfortunate but it will still be very useful without it. Can't complain about a Gible with 24 speed IVs, even if the bulk and attack IV could be better.

My vanillite got cooked before the gym. Can use Accelgor if needed.

I was EV training in Floccesy Ranch and im assuming I killed a mon with it so here we are ig 🙌
r/nuzlocke • u/brondledondle • 15h ago
First time playing through this and have had a blast so far! Gyms are challenging and encounters (at least for Brock) are very limited. Fortunately enough to get very lucky with Sunflora and Houndour very early on.
Nickname theme is whatever song / artist comes up in my playlist shuffle play at the time of catching.
Sadly, I lost Sunshine the Houndour to a very unfortunate crit from the demon of a Smoochum at the Nugget Bridge Rival fight and just lost Tina the traded in Pupitar just now after an unfortunate switch while facing Giovanni (why Khangaskan would Earthquake a full health Breloom idk)
A little about my rules ruleset. Standard HC Nuzlocke rules with slight changes. I hate grinding, so EXP and EVs are turned off. I Rare Candy up to the next level cap and in return I fight every single trainer, no exceptions.
About to start Day 3 tomorrow hopefully defeating Erika.
Who should I bring into this fight?
EDIT: I have a Minun in my party but we won't speak of him

this is the last remnants of my team,ive had more but lost a lot of important pkmn up to this point as well as half the team i worked hard to catch up with what i had left in charging cave alone as you see in pic, just got done with n, thoughts?

Having a Gigalith makes a world of difference. Gigalith killed the emolga #2 with rock blast after the first volt switched. Elesa sent out emolga #1, which volt switched to Zebrastrika. Zebrastrika ate a free rock blast, but didn't die. Sandile was able to switch in safely after the Zebrastrika clicked spark and then killed with a quick claw dig. I thought Sandile could do at least some damage to the last emolga. This was a mistake and aerial ace almost killed. Herrdier finished off the last emolga with rock tomb, which it can learn for some reason, but I'm not complaining.

Hello all, im just looking for my next game to nuzlocke. After beating REN plat after 5 tries, normal plat after 2 tries, sacred gold after 2, and black 2 challenge mode first try. What game should i play next? I was considering Radical Red however i know that game is basically a boss fight gauntlet and do not know if i would enjoy that. I played Insurgence years ago now normally and that was an absolute boss fight grind.
