Hey all. So coincidentally with the advent of the new Pokemon games, Pokemon X and Y, being announced I have started doing a nuzlocke run! A slow nuzlocke run because I'm busy and doing this comic, but a run none the less! This is just page one, but I hope to at least complete my pokemon yellow nuzlocke with few casualties! expect humor, drama, and pants! mostly because my therapist says I need pants >=

Here are this nuzlockes rules!
1. Any Pokemon defeated in battle MUST be released or Perma-Boxed UNLESS:
A. My starter pokemon is defeated during the battle against my rival in the beginning of the game.

2. I may ONLY catch the first Pokemon that I encounter in each area. If I fail to catch the Pokemon, that area is out of bounds UNLESS:
A. I have not yet received my pokeballs in the story line.
B. I encounter a Shiny Pokemon.

3. All pokemon MUST receive a nickname of some form

4. If there are no pokemon in my PC boxes, and I black/White out, this nuzlocke is over and I fail.

5. I may NOT use any healing items. Pokemon Centers are the only places I may heal pokemon.

6. No Legendary Pokemon.

7. If I require an HM or other field move to continue on my pokemon journey, and none of my pokemon are able to learn such a move, I may capture a pokemon to learn that move. I may only use this pokemon while I have no legally (by nuzlocke standards) collected pokemon to use it. once I do, it may be perma-boxed.

and finally

8. I must battle all wild encounters. I may use a move such as roar to send an enemy away, but I may not run from wild encounters. (Why would I anyway, I need to grind!)

I chose some of the Mercy rules just to keep the game going and not shooting myself in the foot before I start. Also I have never encountered a shiny pokemon, so I don't want to go "OH YEAH! SUPER SHINY MEWTWO! Aww crap! nuzlocke... can't catch..." and crying myself to sleep.

I thought about building a slight backlog and posting maybe three pages up at first then doing one by one, but I figure I will never EVER get anything done if I do that, so I'm posting this up here to SHOW people that I WILL be doing it!!!!!! This comic is mostly to get me in the mood for doing things more often than I have been, mostly because I tend to come up with great ideas that sit awkwardly in corners while I laze around and play games. And I'm rapidly running out of corners. So enjoy!!

Also this is heavily inspired by Kitfox Crimson, da bastard! Go enjoy his nuzlockes at his page!!
