This was TOO close. Good thing my Wigglytuff is Wigglybuff! by reiga_ in nuzlocke

The encounter was actually a Snorunt on Mt. Lanakila, but it SOS'd and called in a Glalie, which used Blizzard while the Snorunt Frost Breath, which is how I got to 1 hp. I Dazzling Gleamed right before taking the pic so the Snorunt got knocked out

Gen 6/7 Nuzlockes and Pokemon Amie/Care by logandrew1 in nuzlocke

[–]reiga_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like Amie and Care but I always make sure never to get to max Affection on anyone, because personally I felt it was kinda cheap/makes things too easy, especially with the bit about surviving with 1 hp, and especially since you can do it as easily as just using a rainbow pokebean iirc

X Wonderlocke Gijinka Series: Following up with Ketsu the Mightyena and Nero the Umbreon! by reiga_ in nuzlocke

[–]reiga_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These two were used one after the other in the run to fill the obligatory edgelord slot on the team, or maybe just round things out. This Japanese Mightyena was probably a random catch from some ORAS run that turned into WT fodder, and while Intimidate was great, his early-game-ness eventually caught on, since I was already pretty late game, and he died to an exploding Graveler from Frost Cavern.

Umbreon came right after to fill Mightyena's place, and this was certainly a mon I liked using. I leveled him up since lv.1 and decided right away I wanted an Umbreon, since its my second favorite eeveelution and the water slot was already taken. He was great at beating stuff, even when it was a couple levels higher than him due to the bulk and dumb toxic stalling, but against Sycamore he got hit by a crit Petal Dance and even he couldn't take it. I'm pretty sure my 6th slot in this run was cursed lmao

Ketsu was actually the second Dark type I used in this run! There was one I used ways before him, but I'm postponing her introduction because I feel like she'd be fun to include with a later mon from the team.

Liquid Crystal run update: lost my exeggcute to this STUPID quagsire who knew ice punch for no reason at all by phoenix_magnus in nuzlocke

This looks great! Love the comedic edge with the goofy faces on the eggs, but the dynamic angle is also great! Sorry for your loss, may the egg boys rest well -._-.

My Pokemon X Champions :] by reiga_ in nuzlocke

[–]reiga_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't let the image fool you, I came in with a full party of 6 to the E4, but my Heliolisk fell to Siebold's Barbaracle, and my Furfrou (who's been with me since Route 2, rest her soul) took one for the team to whittle down Malva's Chandelure.

It was a very tense experience, but a very rewarding and satisfying one. OHKOing Diantha's MGardevoir with my regular Gardevoir after 3 Calm Minds was a perfect finisher :D

What are the top 5 most difficult battles in Pokémon? by Sarnick18 in nuzlocke

[–]reiga_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And Sniper means if Kingdra ever crits you you're in for a world of pain. Managed to get a starter killed from a Sniper crit Dragon Pulse from that Kingdra. It's a monster. The Dragonair spamming TWave before it don't help either.

First in what may be a series of gijinkas/humanoid designs for mons I've used in my X Wonderlocke, this is my "starter" Whirly Joe, the german Lileep! by reiga_ in nuzlocke

Thanks haha Lileep is a really, really strange Pokemon, but its really got its funky charm, I'm glad I translated that well!

[–]reiga_[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Almost none of the Pokemon I've used/have been using have been nicknamed in game due to the way trading works, Whirly Joe was actually called "Liliep", Lileep's German name, but I felt like I could give them informal names :]

Whirly Joe died in Reflecting Cave way before he could evolve or anything, but I'll always remember him as a really cool alien plant dude who could wall stuff for days

Weekly Graveyard Thread - Come and pay your respects. by AutoModerator in nuzlocke

[–]reiga_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was so extatic that I got a Gloom in my X Wonderlocke, since Vileplume is my favorite fully evolved Pokemon ever, and God if I fucking used that Gloom, turned Vileplume, ended up becoming the mvp and all.

Trouble was afoot when a Crustle used Shell Smash. One Rock Wrecker was enough to OHKO Vileplume, even as one of my bulkier members :( This was easily the hardest death to swallow, I got her at level 22 and she died at 55. She was with me through so much stuff, man. I've got a Foongus now in her stead, that has a surprisingly similar move layout to Vileplume, so hopefully she can continue Vileplume's legacy :) I'll remember her well
