After reading the very fun set of all-generation nuzlocke comics made by SnowyZombies on ComicFury, I decided I wanted to do my own challenge... the route rule doesn't apply, but permadeath obviously does. I can only use a species in one game, then I can never use it again (I can catch as many Pokemon as I want, but if I use them in battle, I can never use that evolution line again). Some exceptions apply for multi-evos, on a case-by-case basis, and I must use a different team member for every member of a major battle's team, or at least try; I need to spend some amount of turns trying to KO the Pokemon before I can switch, at least. I'm not done yet, and won't be for a while, but I'm excited to see how it goes!
