Hey there, YouTube! woodlandDOX here and today we're diving into the Johto region with our good buddy Ghost Type Alex. This is a randomized, Soul Link, Nuzlocke challenge.

What does that mean? Well, a Nuzlocke has three simple rules:

1. You can only encounter one Pokemon per route/area. If you fail to catch it, you get no encounters for that route.
2. You must nickname all your Pokemon.
3. If your Pokemon faints, it is "dead" instead and can no longer be used.

Now what in the heck is a Soul Link? A Soul Link is a cooperative playthrough which takes into consideration Nuzlocke rules with a few tweaks. The Soul Link concept was not created by, but was made popular by, my personal favorite creator Shadypenguinn.

A Soul Link has the following additional rules:

1. You cannot duplicate PRIMARY typing between the two parties. They can be caught, but not in the party at the same time.
2. Similar to the types, a pair can not have the same gender. This does not apply to starters or static Pokemon as that cannot be controlled.
3. Wild encounters alternate. If you encounter a pokemon the same type or gender as the first person to encounter, you are permitted to re-encounter.
4. If your Soul Link partner Pokemon dies, then so does yours.

Join us on this adventure through the Johto region as we make our ways to being Pokemon Masters...again.
