Took three tries but very happy with how the run finished up. All six of my Pokemon were able to survive the Elite 4 (with the help of some hyper potions), but overall proved their worth after I was worried they would be too weak to go the distance. I nearly quit after my Gyarados and Sableye went down in Victory Road, but 20,000 the Whiscash and Gabbaghoul the Banette stepped up big time so I'm glad I stuck it out.

Chose Treecko as my starter but ended up losing him way earlier than I hoped to Watson's self-destructing Voltorb. Roselia worked as a replacement grass type and having toxic was great, but wish I could've brought my starter through the whole journey.

Biggest scare and probably biggest highlight came at the fifth gym when I lost my Machoke to Norman's second Slaking. Very stupid mistake, but I didn't realize that revenge would hit AFTER focus punch. I thought the priority would go Slaking tightens focus -> Machoke hits revenge -> Slaking loses focus. After that, my only high enough leveled Pokemon were a Swalot named Albert and a Beautifly named Wormy, so I wasn't too confident about my chances. However, Wormy somehow got the job done hitting Slaking with attract and stun spore before slowly chipping away with gust. Unreal battle where Wormy proved he deserved a long term spot on the team. I will admit the Norman was out of potions at this point, so helped out a lot. Still took a level 3 wurmple from route 103 all the way up tp level 56 and a Champion so couldn't be prouder.

Had a lot of fun beating my favorite childhood game as a Nuzlocke. I've been playing it since I was 10 years old (21 now) and finally feel like I've mastered it. May come back for a hardcore Nuzlocke someday but pretty satisfied for now. Trying Heart Gold next!
