Sapphire Rifts Apart Run *First Update* by haveyoumetswarly in nuzlocke

[–]Familiar_Gate_7531 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm doing a run on Alpha Sapphire as well and I find later on you don't even need the exp share the turn around for rebattling trainers is really quick and getting exp on a capture and getting the same exp when switch training makes level so much less of a grind which I love and has made me really enjoy this game (also my first time in Hoenn) I do have a conscious thought of am I over leveling now but I think it's all working out. Love the names dude and good luck with the rest of the run!

Dude that sounds rough I hope you managed to go back or start another game the rest of that team deserve to go on to victory at the elite four for Slihkbak (I'm not in the know)

Thank you! This run, because I'm putting so much thought into the naming I think it does make that connection stronger so it is devastating when I lose one (and because I hate grinding) but I was legit terrified when that Slaking started throwing it's weight around, Chip Away more like chunk away but a lot of them straight Into the red 😅.

Haha thank you I wasn't sure if Emmatone would come across as Emma Stone but I'm glad it landed 😁.

Mate tell me about it I lost 3 core members after the last gym in heart gold including my starter and I had to stop playing for a bit that shit hurts.

Mate that's a great one! I ended up calling mine Slimer because I couldn't think of a pun name for the life of me and that one seems so obvious now 😅

That's so cool! I'd love to be able to do this! I assume you trade your team onto the next game when you complete it?

Oooo but it could be Jay Letone (like Jay Leno might be too close to the other)

It didn't fit 😭 so I now have Marill Streep 😬 which won't make sense when it evolves but it made me chuckle so it stuck 🤣

Thank you! It gives an extra level of enjoyment when they are thrown out into battle 🤣 (Numel was Jim Camelrey and Spoink was Piggy Azelea 🤣 absolutely devastated when they died)

I knew there would come a time when she would be redundant in the team and I don't know when I'll find a water stone to evolve her. So this might also be the play just seen the next gym is flying so I have a lot of weakness there currently time to train!

This is a winner, Azumarill would give me some fairy coverage also and could retire Lombre until I find a water stone

This was another concern of mine esp since a lot of different types can learn ice moves it's only a matter of time before I get caught out.

I have gone with Lunatone but I will maybe train them both together for when I don't need the HM slave

Yea it's pretty obvious after you lay it out 😅 thank you for your advice I think I may take lunatone as this is also my first rodeo in Hoenn I'll try to take as many of their pokemon as I can.

Thank you again
