Well that's one long title ^
So I'm going to be doing a Pokemon Platinum Randomizer Nuzlocke, to those who don't know what it is, it's basically a randomized nuzlocke. It will become more clear as we go along. I'm only randomizing Wild Pokemon and the moves of the pokemon, nothing else. Trainer battles and all that will remain the same. Let's review the nuzlocke rules that I'll be using :
. If a Pokemon faints it is considered dead, if you get a blackout it's gameover, even if there are Pokemon still left in the pc
. All Pokemon must be nicknamed
. I can only catch the first pokemon on a route, this rule doesn't count for shinies, gift pokemon and legendaries

These are the three main rules I'll be using. Also the Pokemon I'll be using will be based off my ID.
If you want to play along, I'm sorry to say I can't link you to the randomizer, ROMS or emulators.

Wow, that's great :eek: I've always wanted to play Pokemon Platinum again! (I have 2 games but I want to keep the save files Dx) It was extremely fun and a randomizer sounds awesome. I think you should either post videos or screenshots, and make sure you post the whole thing.
 
I'm gonna be posting screenshots of course. I haven't started it yet..well actually I need to restart since I forgot to randomize wild pokes xD

Oh lol xD
 
So my starter is a totodile which is interesting, I've always been fond of totodile, sadly though, my rival got a turtwig, so this is gonna be just like the games, oh yeah, did I mention how...weird...totodile's moveset is

Oh yeah my rival won, because movesets are randomized, which was bad news for me when turtwig just took me out with one wood hammer, I need nicknames for totodile

Totodile will be called Jaws, a nickname suggested by @np2016
@Oshawotron16 also had some good nickname ideas

doesn't this mean you're dead and the nuzlocke is considered a failure? or do you just skip it

Oh the nuzlocke doesn't truly begin until you get given pokeballs

good point. I just don't consider the catching part to start until pokeballs are in effect.

So I failed to catch a pokemon on the first route (could of landed a venomoth) I managed to catch a Staryu, and named it starman as suggest by @Starmanfan

That False Swipe will be very handy in the future. When a legendary appears, you can atleast get it on 1HP.

How do you get the movepools like that?
I want something that lets me have more absurd movepools than the pomeg berry glitch!
 
  • #18
You have inspired me to do my own nuzlocke. Where do I get the Randomizer? I already have the Romz and Emulator

*Ssigh* This is the only time I'm giving a link to the randomizer since I'm not sure if it's a legal things or not http://pokehacks.dabomstew.com/randomizer/

Anyway I dunno how much I plan on doing today, but I beat a trainer and currently fighting another
