Okay, so I started playing my nuzlocke, right? Emerald came in the mail yesterday. I came home and started playing until 1 o'clock in the AM. This is how it went:
At first I thought I was super lucky, ya know? Cause I got a freaking FEMALE Torchic. Hellz yeah.
(Grumble grumble.
and her shiny Torchic... Grumble grumble.)
Cindy the Torchic joined the team! 8D (Lv 5, female, [Growl & Scratch])
But from then on my luck started falling. And by falling I mean like how when you fall you accelerate until you hit the ground. Yeah, like that.
So I couldn't catch any pokemon on the first two routes because I had no balls >:[ So I was shit outta luck there. Then when I finally COULD catch one, I made the freaking wurmple faint... So I had only one pokemon up until I got to the town where you meet your dad. And since I'm playing a combined nuzlocke with my boyfriend, I was texting him the entire time. What made me feel SUPER unlucky was the fact that he was already further than I was by that point AND had four pokemon already... And to rub it in even more, I had to watch/help that Wally kid catch a Ralts...
But I FINALLY caught a pokemon... after using THREE pokeballs... on a wurmple... =3=;
"You will be my Wurmple and you shall be mine!"
Squishy the Wurmple joined the Team! 8D (Lv 4, male, [Tackle & String Shot])
So then I had two pokemon and things were looking up. After some level grinding, an evolution from a Wurmple to a Cascoon, and a few close calls, I decided to move onto Petalburg Woods.
First new encounter was a Poochyena. I decided to use Squishy's Poison Sting to make it easier to catch, which worked WONDERS for me! 8D Until the shaking screen SLAPPED me in the face...
Kinsey the Poochyena joined the team! 8D (Lv 5, female, [Howl & Tackle])
Kinsey fainted before I made it to the Pokemon Center...
Boy did I feel stupid after that...
1 down, however many to go... (Or so I thought...)
Then my brilliant self forgot to heal at the Center while I was "burying" Kinsey. As I was walking over to the woods again, I met a Taillow that I could not escape from, even though I had a higher level. This thing was DETERMINED to kill something.
"Run," "Can't escape!" "Taillow used Growl," "Run," "Can't escape!" "Taillow used Focus Energy," "Run," "Taillow used Growl," "Run (does this thing even have any attacks?)," "Can't escape!" "Tailow used Peck! Critical hit! It's super effective!" "Squishy fainted..."
FUUUUUUUUUU!!!
So THIS time when I went to bury (release) my pokemon, it kept comming back to me... After five times of trying to get rid of it, I was finally just like, "Ookaayy… I guess I'm just going to have to take this zombie Cascoon with me then..."
So after making it through the woods with a Slakoth and more Poochyena taunting me, I got to the next town... And caught ANOTHER Poochyena...
Jimmy the Poochyena joined the team! 8D (Lv 6, male, [Howl & Tackle])
So I stayed in that town for a long time just FRUSTRATINGLY level grinding. Nincada taunting me harder than ever due to the Bug vs. Dark type =3=
So I stopped after Jimmy and Squishy were both Level 9 and Cindy was a Level 13 and finally went to sleep.
My boyfriend ended the night with a Mudkip, a Wurmple, a Poochyena, a Zigzagoon, a Nincada, and a Taillow.
He lost one Zigzagoon to the Gym leader.
This morning I woke up and turned my game on to find my bad luck CRASH into the ground by finging THIS lovely message on my game:
"Save file lost due to damage or corruption..."
...
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
So, yeah, that's it. That is my ENTIRE Nuzolcke challenge... I'mna have to find another game that WON'T quit on me this time... =3= Stupid game from e-bay...
Sigh, yeah. Luckly my boyfriend is willing to wait until then and he's not a jerk who would just be like, "You lost, haha! Bake me cake nao!" No. He even offered me his brother's Ruby version, but me being me, I would just get attached to the pokemon and end up not wanting to give it back. I'm weird, I've been making stories with my pokemon way before I even knew about Nuzlocke. And the pokemon I have suck pokeballs. I'm good when it comes to beating the stupid NPC in-game characters. Duh. But when it comes to beating MY FRIENDS, I be trippin pokeballs... I wouldn't stand even a chance if I were to find... say, a super nerd (not an insult, some of my best friends are nerds~
) at a convention or on a wireless connection or something. They would basically LAUGH and I would die. No battle, nothing XD
What was my point again...?
Oh yeah! XD So I play for the friendships, not for the super training shit. I never know what I'm doing... (God, I am such a fuqing girl... XD)
DAMN that was a long journal... Thank you to anyone brave enough to read all of that! XD
Oh yeah, and to
, If I were to give you the souls of my dead pokemon, would they be safe in your hands or would they end up in a place where I don't want them? O_o
