Nuzlocke [BLIND] - Pokémon Shield Version - Episode 16
Nuzlocke Official Rules:
1) Any Pokémon that faints is considered dead, and must be put in the Pokémon Storage System permanently.
2) Only catch the first Pokémon encountered in each area, and none else. If the first Pokémon encountered faints or flees, there are no second chances. If the first encounter in the area is a Double Battle in dark grass, the player may choose which of the two Pokémon they would like to catch. If there's a static encounter in the area, the player is allowed to capture them despite already capturing a Pokémon in that area. Shiny Pokémon also do not apply to this rule.
Nuzlocke Optional Rules:
3) Nickname all of their Pokémon, for the sake of forming stronger emotional bonds.
4) If usable Pokémon remain in PC, the game may continue.
5) Trade and Gift Pokémon are prohibited.
5.a) CAN trade to evolve.
6) Challenge starts upon acquiring Pokéballs.
7) Galar and dupes clause are in effect. Only Pokémon found exclusively within Galar can be caught, and duplicate Pokémon can be passed up. Galar exclusive includes Galarian forms (such as Galarian Ponyta) or unique evolutions (such as Farfetch'd).
7.a) CANNOT grind or knockout Pokémon until first eligible encounter.
8) Can catch all legendary and shiny Pokémon, but they are ineligible for the challenge.
9) Unique areas within Wild Area count as separate routes.
10) Can participate in and catch one Max Raid Battle Pokémon after First, Fourth, and Eighth gyms.
10.a) Single-player only!
NOTES:
-I will be catching a Galarian Ponyta for a friend, but it will be considered "outside" the challenge.
-Feel free to suggest names!
