Welcome to the Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire Randomized FIFO Locke Nuzlocke! I will be playing through Pokemon Ruby using a variation of the Nuzlocke ruleset where I have no choice over what my team looks like.

For a full tutorial on the rules of a FIFO Locke, check out this video: https://youtu.be/IFR7cz5GVoc

The rules are listed below:

1. If a pokemon faints, it is considered dead and can no longer be used.
2. Throughout the game, only the first pokemon encountered in each unique route can be caught. If that pokemon flees, faints, or is run away from, the encounter is forfeited and no other pokemon can be caught in that route. There are 2 caveats to this rule: If the first encountered pokemon is in the same evolution line as a pokemon that has already been caught, I can continue to re-encounter until I get a pokemon of a species I haven't yet caught (species clause) or if at any time a shiny pokemon is encountered, I can catch and use this pokemon regardless of where it was encountered (shiny clause).
3. All pokemon must be nicknamed to encourage forming an emotional bond.
4. If all my pokemon on my team and in the PC die, I lose. However, if my entire team dies but I have pokemon in the PC that are still alive, I can continue with those pokemon.

In addition to these normal nuzlocke rules, a FIFO Locke adds on 2 additional rules:
1. Pokemon must be added to the team in the order in which they were caught. Once my team reaches 6 pokemon, all additional pokemon must go into the PC and cannot be added onto the team until a slot opens because of a death and there are no pokemon in the PC caught before that pokemon.
2. I must attempt to catch all encounters within reason. I cannot choose to run from an encounter to avoid a bad team member unless staying in and continuing to try and catch the pokemon would risk causing a death.

This version of Pokemon Ruby has been randomized. This means all starters, trainer pokemon, wild encounters, and static pokemon are random. Additionally, field items and TMs have been randomized. All pokemon have been given the ability to learn all HM moves to allow for continued progress in the game regardless of the makeup of my team. However, if a team member can normally learn an HM, I must give the HM to that pokemon. Only if no pokemon can naturally learn an HM can I teach it to a pokemon that doesn't naturally learn it.

I hope to play through the entire game, defeat the Elite 4, and become the Hoenn champion! Join me on my Pokemon Ruby randomizer nuzlocke challenge using a unique ruleset! I hope you enjoy and if you want to watch more content consider liking and subscribing!
