Nuzlocke Survivor: Kanto - Official Thread

[Megurine Suika]

Spoiler: I am so fucking tired

So I just drove 4 hours because SOMEONE wanted a picture of a lawn mower, so lets do this fast.

The most eventful thing that happened was my snorlax getting poisoned by poison point at one point.

#LifeGoals

I will have a great time, assuming it is not a PG-13 kinda party.

Now with plot done, lets get catches!

Motherfucker, now I need to actually buy some balls.

Can you guess how many balls I bought by my cash remaining? (Hint: I bought 10 before catching the beldum)

This is the squishiest Crobat in history, that was a fucking 4x resist.

Is that an offensive water-type?

I am not even enough.

Fucking poison point ruining my groove. Also tanner being slow as moleasses. And yes, I couldn't be assed to get to a pokemon center and unbox the ivysaur. #CharizardXMisty

And then I grinded and all was right in the world.

People thinking about the pokedex on a nuzlocke sure is amusing old man.

(While grinding on starmies to thief, I got those, but then threw away because rules)
(I also traded away my Forretress for Newfi's Cloyster that was caught on this Checkpoint)

Spoiler: Suika Check-in

This is the trade I made.

Spoiler: Updog 4

Nugget bridge was a joke. I guess they did their best though, so as long as the have no regrets everything should be fine.

Teamshot after Nugget Bridge. Don't @ me.

Rt. 24 encounter. Alright, it could be worse.

Aaaand Rt 25 encounter. This WAS worse.

I'm getting off this survivor island!

Also, I missed the screenshot, but while grinding, Cufant the Phanpy picked up a TM10. Hello free Hidden Power!

Alright, let's fight Misty. I bought Cufant because Mawile won't listen to me, and if something needed to be sacced, you bet your ass it was this thing. Even though free itmes are nice.

Alright, it leads with Spikes Qwilfish, so Pikachu is my lead.

Huh. Went straight on the offensive. OK.

Yeah, that went as expected.

Yeah, that was a mistake that costed Mankey. He didn't die, but it was very dicey.

#Bless Maganium

Alright, last one...

Let's do this you ten-pointed bastard!

Ha! That was easy!

...Oops. I wanted to avoid that. Oh well, good thing this isn't a battle checkpoint.

FINALLY! Jaegar will stop being a little shit a obey me.

Teamshot. Could have been way worse.

After grinding the team to level 24, Cufant finds ANOTHER TM10. Hidden Power for days!

Proof that I do have 2 Hidden Power TMs

I also forgot to screenshot, but as you'll see in my update, Ty and I have traded. He caught a Kadabra this Battle point, which he traded to me for my Murkrow. Because of this, Kadabra is now an Alakazam.

[EeveeFTW]

Spoiler: Hey what's up everybody, Eve here

And on, Eve went. A determined, cold glare filled her eyes for just a moment, before she takes a breath and a step forward. She wouldn't let that loss get to her. She did her best, and that's all there was. Now, she just needed to look ahead. Like to these trainers lined up for a fight. Granted it wasn't much of one, as her Cloyster manages to freeze over the entire bridge, allowing Eve to just slide merrily across.

"It...wasn't too hard," Eve gives the man an appreciative smile, then heads on her way. The man stops her though, going on a charade about how great this "Team Rocket" was. All about how they were the best, and how everyone should bow down to them, and how she'd make a great addition given how effortlessly she dealt with the trainers on the bridge.

He didn't last very long. So much for Team Rocket and their whatever. Though the name does sound familiar, and she remembered beating some trainers in the cave that were threatening to steal something? From a mountain? Like what, rocks? What a bunch of weirdos. Anyway, then Eve headed down and made quick work of the next route as well, eventually finding herself...

"Oh good good good yes yes yes! A person, finally finally! Not as bad as the last I hope I hope! He ran out before I could even say hi! Properly. I guess I did say hi improperly. But it isn't polite to run and scream either! I'm a nice gentleman yes yes!" the Cleffa in the middle of the room rambles on and on about how he's in a most gentlemanly of groups, going on dinner parties at private yachts and making quaint jokes and drinking lightly all the time. Eve eventually steps forward, asking for an explanation of what's happening.

"Please don't run! Or faint! Girls are quite prone to fainting, you know. I'm definitely an expert in the topic, yes! They don't call my house Makeout Peak for nothing! Or was it Lookout Pond? I'm quite fond of the Twin Pools myself! They make for a quite splendid front yard, quite splendid indeed! Though it does attract hoodlums who make out due to it's absolutely prime and perfect conditions! I would tell them to go away but they're quite fun to watch! Science and love, that's the dream of life! Which is what I do! Science! And Love! You! Girl! Did you come for science? Or love?"

"Science?"

"Ah, a woman of culture! Thinks she knows how the whooza-ma-whatzits and the whim-dingers work! Well nobody does! But me! The man of science! You are a woman of science, but not of my caliber. Yes, my caliber is the highest of classes, the peak of perfection! The-"

"You're a Clefairy."

"Correct! You see, I have discovered a way to transform a Pokemon and a human into one being! To fuse into the ultimate creation of man and beast! And unstoppable force of unstoppable reckoning! Nothing will be able to contain the raw power that I now wield! I definitely did not do this on accident, no! This was the most purposeful thing I have ever purposed! A grand scheme, 10, no, 50 years in the making!"

"You're...what?" Eve sighs, picking the Clefairy up and beginning to look around the room, "How do I fix it?"

"Ah, there's no backwards progression here young lady! You must think of me as some ruffian, banging tools together like a caveman! Well since I always do things right, I'm never wrong! Therefore, there's no need to backtrack, you see? It's the perfect solution and save time, yes! But if someone were to reverse the process, that would likely revert me! Not that anyone would, that would be an upfront to-"

Eve tosses the man into the strange machine, walking over to the computer. On it, were two buttons. One reading "Teleport" and the other "Unteleport". Slowly shaking her head, Eve presses the button to undo the process, and after a few questionable bangs and whirrs, the machine spat out a new man. An actual man. Who was still rambling on.

"And that's how I got these tickets, right? Ah, but you probably think that they're fake tickets! I can't have that, no no! Here now! Go in my place! You will see the glorious wonders of a yacht, and civilized civilians who have never known a wrong that wronged them! It will be quite the enlightening experiences for a woman of science such as yourself! To research yachts! And people on yachts! And people researching people on yachts! And rich people!"

Eve slowly backs away and gets away from that area asap. On the way she catches some Pokemon.

She also stopped by the previous route because her last catch had mysteriously disappeared (And by that, I lost progress including the catch, and Shup ok'd me to just take my new first catch since I didn't have all the info, rip purple slimey boy who's name escapes me).

With that out of the way, all that remained was the gym. The fact that she had to walk over a pool on a board with no railings or anything made her a bit uncomfortable, especially since she didn't want to go back and change clothes at this point. She walks carefully, trying to avoid any splashing water from the pokemon (Which her Grovyle helped her out with). And thus, she came to Misty.

And thus, a cool fight happened. Where her Blastoise got reduced to 1 hp before leveling up. Again. Eve notes that she should probably actually prepare for the next fight instead of just going in without a plan. Or preparation in the slightest. And maybe actually increasing her Pokemon's levels.

After that, she ran into Cadence. She recognized him from the puzzle challenge, and how he blew everyone else out of the water with his score. Remembering that he was struggling to get the ball rolling for his Pokemon, she offered him her Typhlosion to help out. She thought it was only fair, given how the last challenge went for him. With that, she gained a new Pokemon.

And that was that.

Treecko is not bad, but not my cup of tea either.

Now this is better, altough I still like Swampert the most out of hoenn starters, but heh.

Why are there cactus scarecrows on vermillion waters? At least it means I can't get a worse catch than this.

I guess this is the point where my luck runs out huh?

Hey Yuugi, did you bring booze this time?

Did not. :( (Also, take a drink everytime Tanner is too low after a fight)

Now I can cut shit.

So I traded with Badnik to allow him to evolve his Clam. He now has Gore.

No I will not change that sentence.

Found This While EV Grinding.

Prize Hype.

Bitch.

Routes 5 and 6 respectively.

tbh I forgot where the fishing guru was for a bit as I haven't played kanto and needed the rod ever.

Vermillion

and onto my catch

Also apparently that repeats each time you enter which I did not know.

Roy's our boy, Roy's our boy.

Also fire badgers: Native to the waters by cruise ships.

It's called Lootin'

Ah Joy.

I say that but Wartortle was really the only threatening one. Had to use a healing item cause of it.

Also Cut Acquired!

Now I can fight Surge.

But what ever did happen to the SS Anne, some say it cruised successfully, others say it crashed, but the truth may be never known.

[EeveeFTW]

Spoiler: Gotta check in

On her way over to the SS Anne, Eve manages to find a few Pokemon. Then fishes up medical treatment. Then a loud dog that did the roar and jumped back into the ocean.

She shows her ticket. There wasn't exactly much for her on board, or really anything for that matter, but she kinda had to for the competition. At least she could visit everyone's room to get some extra cash. Because extra cash is always nice. Eve proceeds inside, doing the usual trainer thing, taking a small break to smell the roses.

And by roses I mean food and by smelling I mean eating. The chefs in there were pretty nice, and offered her a few sampler dishes of what they were making. Which Eve ate a lot of. And also her Charizard, who materialized for the sole purpose of eating delicious food.

Then she ran into her rival. She replied sheepishly that she had been invited by Bill, which Brand just laughs at. The two then start their battle, as is customary of any two trainers meeting eyes.

And down the rival went, with Eve hardly breaking a sweat. Probably because her Blastoise wasn't there and being reduced to 1 hp like it always does.

Then she left and nothing else happened that she doesn't want to mention or should be showed on television.\

Nothing at all.
