That Nuzlocke challenge looks pretty insane. I certainly couldn't see myself attempting it, not for how often i overestimate my Pokemons' capabilities and they end up passing out for it. =)

So are you not allowed to catch more than one of the same species in the Nuzlocke challenge? That would seem particularly unfair in RSE, since you may only catch the first Pokemon that crosses your path in each area, and Zigzagoon/Poochyena live pretty much everywhere.

I'll cross my fingers and hope that you get Trapinch in Route 111. <3

I think the hardest thing for me has been going back to before the physical/special split. I was so happy to get a Gyarados until I realised there is no such thing as a physical water move in Sapphire... It's been quite fun so far, and playing it at the same time as the endgame of SS really hit home how much easier it was to grind back in sapphire ( ... )

The lack of physical/special split drives me batty! They'll let you load Gyarados up with powerful water attacks, which usually don't work as well as simple Return. Gengar has monsterous special attack, which does absolutely no good for his STAB Ghost-type moves.

On the plus side, Sceptile becomes really awesome again. <3

The first time i played through Emerald, i found Ralts my first encounter on Rt 104. I was so ecstatic, i was almost bouncing off the walls! (I named her Bliss. ^_^)

brb - the boss is kicking me out ;)

I hadn't considered how dangerous HMs could be in a Nuzlocke challenge, but since you mentioned it, that does sound like it could be serious. Actually... *checks HM moves* couldn't your Zigzagoon make a decent HM mule if evolved? And with any luck at all you'll have a chance to catch a common-as-dirt Zubat or Wingull to use fly, right?

So Whismur is immune to Roar of Time? Get outta here! Are you serious? :D
