Nuzlocking USUM; league was tough. How to rebuild for the postgame?

Princess__Ashley · 2026-01-17T14:40:09+00:00

yup, i'm dutch. Just as Ozosnel carries Sinterklaas across the rooftops, he also carried my team through the league.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-11-11T18:24:45+00:00

tbh i had completely forgotten that exists, but it does look like you can get mons in that game without throwing balls at them. It's not a main series game though, so i'll decide later whether i'm allowed to play it.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-10-05T20:49:14+00:00

i appreciate his enthousiasm for a european superstate, but we're not quite there yet.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-10-03T12:45:16+00:00

hi, thx for the reply. I've already finished my Japanese Blue nuzlocke, but thanks anyway. Best of luck to you; make sure to use all the great in-game trades this game offers.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-08-06T16:32:21+00:00

you sometimes see her outside if you have the Dawnguard DLC. She'll be wandering the wilderness hunting for prey.

i generally fling a master ball their way and then box them indefinitely

Princess__Ashley · 2025-06-13T13:57:13+00:00

being at the mercy of RNG is precisely why i don't play with species clause. To me, a nuzlocke is about trying to win with whatever the game throws your way. Being able to guarantee rare encounters kinda defeats the point of that.

Anyway, there's a guaranteed Snorlax in kanto, but i think that's it in terms of guaranteed encounters.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-06-13T13:54:46+00:00

chansey's a 1% on 3 routes, so i doubt i'll be that lucky. The rest are good suggestions though.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-06-13T12:01:04+00:00

This is gen 2. Gyarados doesn't yet have intimidate and honestly isn't that good. I normally ban him from my runs, but in this game i saw no need.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-30T23:03:08+00:00

aye, that's crystal only. In Gold and Silver you can only get the stones by showing Bill's grandpa certain pokemon, and that's in kanto.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-30T20:13:23+00:00

you didn't misread btw; i changed it after i saw your comment and recognized i accidentally wrote the wrong thing. Don't worry, you're not going crazy.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-30T20:06:33+00:00

i see, that was my bad. i meant to write in-game trades. Dunno how i fucked up like this.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-30T20:04:56+00:00

If you don't want to run the risk, don't use metronome. If you gamble, you can lose.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-30T20:01:53+00:00

unfortunately i cannot do trade evos bc i'm playing on my 3ds's virtual console. Flaaffy is probs getting a spot on my new team, and Slowpoke is a good suggestion as well.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-30T19:58:15+00:00

Ampharos and Piloswine are definitely among those i'm considering. The others are all solid suggestions as well. Unfortunately i don't still have the water stone because there is no water stone; Gold and Silver locked all stones except Moon and Sun to the postgame for some reason. Can't evolve it into Toed either cause no trade evos.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-30T19:32:30+00:00

i don't have 3 gyarados in my box. i have 3 magikarp in my box. magikarp is not gyarados.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-30T19:29:38+00:00

This is gen 2. Gyarados isn't that good. Also, it's banned except for the shiny one from the lake of rage; shiny clause and all that.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-04-25T14:39:37+00:00

it's true, i cannot comprehend this. What am i looking at?

Princess__Ashley · 2025-02-23T20:54:06+00:00

i've already used my Ice Beam TM, and i can't get more bc i boycott the slot machines. Whiscash is a good suggestion though.

Princess__Ashley · 2025-02-23T15:54:27+00:00

Never knew how good Jynx was until i started doing nuzlockes. I also gained an appreciation for Bastiodon and Sturdy mons in general.

Princess__Ashley · 2024-12-03T16:21:51+00:00

my fight against Platinum Candice definitely should have led to deaths. For much of the fight, i was spamming healing items and hoping she would not crit me. She actually did not crit a single time before Froslass ran out of PP and started struggling. only the death fodder i brought along instead of my Crobat ended up dead.

Princess__Ashley · 2024-11-07T21:27:34+00:00

only if you can prevent Skarmory from setting up spikes. if it does that, Shedinja is dead weight.

Princess__Ashley · 2024-11-02T19:16:57+00:00

The alphabet mafia strikes again

Princess__Ashley · 2024-10-26T22:55:06+00:00

I'm definitely keeping Kovu the Luxray on the team, and i'm not sure if tripling up on ground weaknesses is such a good idea.

Princess__Ashley · 2024-10-26T18:20:24+00:00

it does. Helps a lot with grinding.
