And the best part is, the author integrates it into the worldbuilding very well, which we’ll go over later. and creates something truly truly difficult. It’s effectively a combination of a bunch of different additional rules like the Notepad clause, no items in battle, etc. This right here is one of the toughest Nuzlocke sets I’ve ever seen, and I love it. No items are allowed to be used in battle. (As per monotype, you need to have one of the typings only and it can be primary or secondary)ġ2.
As per monotype rules, if you add a mix of electric or steel, the same with will occur as it does in Rule 8, unless it is a electric/steel typing. Steel and Electric type Pokémon are banned, adding one to your party will effectively kill your entire team, meaning you’d be played a monotype challenge.ĩ. HMs are allowed since you need them to progress through the story.Ĩ. TMs and EXP shares are banned from this challenge, as they are both computers. Egg Pokémon are banned, due to the fact its mainly a dead weight until you get it high enough level.ħ.
POKEMON PLATINUM RANDOMIZER NUZLOCKE! PC
Shiny Pokémon or those with Pokérus CAN be put in the PC without dying though.Ħ. The only exception is if you have to get a gift pokemon to progress the story, you may swap out a pokemon out in order to do this, but if you choose to use the gift pokemon then it is dead. If you willingly place a team member in your PC, you cannot use it anymore, it is also dead.

And yes this does include Pokémon automatically transferred into the PC after you catch a full team.ĥ. Any Pokémon in the PC is considered dead. Use of the PC is not permitted, limiting your team to only your active party as available Pokémon. One Pokémon per area (dupes clause with a 3 attempt mark and a shiny clause permitted)Ĥ. Severance is looking to be a right bloodbath with how the ruleset is set up, and I am looking forward to it.ġ. In addition, the ruleset its intense in its own right, telling us this isn’t going to be some cakewalk of a nuzlocke. It’s a type of nuzlocke that few have probably ever heard of so from the get go it’s already shaking things up for most readers. But to me, that’s part of what makes Severance so interesting. So why is Severance‘s ruleset unique? Well for me personally, it was a type of custom nuzlocke that I had never heard of before, and it’s definitely among the lesser known rule sets because when I tried to research it a bit more I couldn’t find much on it. These custom nuzlockes come in all shapes in sizes with other examples including the Zombielocke, Egglocke, Chesslocke, and Wonderlocke, to name a few. These pairs were then the only Pokémon that could switch in for each other and thus only two Pokémon were able to be used in battle unless one of the pairs was killed off. For example, a Wedlocke is a type of nuzlocke with the additional ruleset that as Pokémon are caught, they are put into pairs. However, in some cases, players will take it a step further and create a very unique ruleset that gets its own title. It’s not uncommon for players and creators to modify these rules to their liking, with some of the more common examples being no item usage in battle, playing on set mode, or the shiny clause which allows players to catch a shiny even if it isn’t their first encounter. There are three basic rules that every challenge is required to have: 1) You can only catch the first Pokémon you encounter on each route, 2) If a Pokémon faints it’s considered dead and can no longer be used, and 3) All Pokémon must be nicknamed.
For those unfamiliar, a Nuzlocke is a set of self imposed rules that players use to make Pokémon games harder. So let’s delve into the ingredients!įirst, the unique ruleset of this nuzlocke already sets it apart from many of the other nuzlockes that I’ve read. All of these factors make up the recipe for a very interesting story and I have thoroughly enjoyed thus far. In summary though, it has a unique ruleset, it has a randomizer factor, and extremely interesting worldbuilding. It was a short but very enjoyable binge that left me desperate for more due to several factors, all of which I’ll be going into more detail about below. Severance (as I’ll be calling it for the rest of the article) is a very unique nuzlocke comic that was recently recommended to me. This week we’re taking a look at Severance: A Randomized Pokémon Platinum Nuzlocke by Winterspheonix. It’s Tuesday which means it’s time for Crossroads Comics!
