Alola everyone! I am planning a special Nuzlocke run of Pokémon Sun in the coming days and I need your help! I love to do restricted type runs when I do these nuzlocke challenges and I normally theme them on in-game trainer classes. Now for this run I want to work with Psychic types for sure but I would like to leave it up to you guys for the other types (I will be doing this by replacing the ingame starter with a more thematic Pokémon btw). So vote in the pool above to decide my destiny! Heh excuse my touch of drama there. While we are at it, let's discuss challenge runs. Have any of you run self-imposed rules to your Pokémon runs? Anything out of the ordinary (not Nuzlocke)? I would love to hear from you.
I voted for Mysterious Stranger. There are tons of Fairy types in Sun and Moon, and they will be your best friends in the long run.
I also went with Mysterious Stranger after thinking on the Pokémon available in the region. I almost always had a Pokémon that was either Dark/Ghost/Fairy/Psychic on my team, and ultimately won thanks to a Fairy type.
This sounds really cool! I look forward to reading the log. Please do remember that the actual log has to go into Pokémon General.
Mysterious Stranger sounds fun! You'll have a bit more versatility but still a common theme throughout your team. With nuzlockes, even though I always try to catch every first route encounter, I like to have a type balance with my team. So even if I get a great Pokémon on a new route, I'll keep it stored in the PC if it shares the exact same type as another Pokémon on my team I already have trained.
I voted for Mysterious Stranger and Brainiac since both have pretty interesting type exclusives, and can try to be a little more balanced in the game. But this sounds like it's gonna be interesting! I'm looking forward to reading the nuzlocke here!
Thank you everyone for your votes! I have started the Mysterious Stranger run (in Moon in the end, did not want to splurge on getting Sun so late in the game's lifetime with Ultras coming around) and I will be posting my journal and team updates shortly!
