Welcome one and all to Drake's World Tour Extravanganza! Here we'll embark on a journey through the many regions the Pokémon world has to offer as we play through all the games... With the Nuzlocke rules.
You know what that means! Death! Despair! Come join me in my journey of wading through bodies, either my comrades or those standing in my way to getting that shiny belt with the word Champion on it.
Below you can find the rules that I'll use for the main part until stated otherwise. Episodes will come in the future with no predetermined update schedule!

You know what that means! Death! Despair! Come join me in my journey of wading through bodies, either my comrades or those standing in my way to getting that shiny belt with the word Champion on it.
Below you can find the rules that I'll use for the main part until stated otherwise. Episodes will come in the future with no predetermined update schedule!
Basic Rules
- Caught at First Sight: The first Pokémon on any route is the only one I can catch. If I run or faint it, I get nothing
- Shameful Display: Everything that loses must be boxed/released.
- Acknowledge the No-Names: If it gets caught, it deserves a nickname. No matter how much you hate the Pokémon.
Hard-Mode Rules
- Take one as a team: We play in Set Mode, so we always risk either one extra hit or a setup to be used against us
- Nothing in my pocket: No items can be used in battle from the Bag, with the exception of PokéDolls in the Wild Area and Balls to catch Pokémon
- Hats off to Ace: I may not enter any Gym/League with a Pokémon stronger that the Leader's/last E4 member's Ace
Additional Rules
- Duplicate Clause: If my first encounter is something I already own, then I may ignore it until I encounter something I don't have. This is for the line as a whole
- Branching evolutions are not be considered Duplicates (Example: Beautifly/Dustox, Poliwrath/Politoed)
- Global Duplicate: Every Pokemon immortalised at the Hall of Fame (alive or dead) will be considered a Duplicate for the following games along with its entire line (barring the branching line/regional variant). This is to encourage diversity and to prevent multiple Gyarados'es/Golems/Crobats/'other easy to access and handy Pokémon' to be used time and time again.
- Divide and conquer: Land and sea are not different encounter routes. I can only catch (1) Pokémon per route, no matter what method I choose (Headbutt, Rock Smash, Grass, Surfing, Fishing)
- Delibird came early: Gift Pokémon may be received/used, but only (1) per area.
- Purebloods only: Shinies will be killed or locked away in the Box only to be admired.
- Slaves make the world turn: A HM Slave may be used if no other party member can use the HM.
- Wildlife preserve: Each area of the Safari Zone (or game's equivalent) is it's own area for me to try and catch something. If I catch more than one Pokémon in the Safari Zone, then I can only pick one. The rest have to be boxed or released.
- No time for grinding: Candies will be used to avoid grinding, but if something gets higher leveled than the following Gym Leader's Ace then it must be boxed.
- Godslayer: Every Legendary that I encounter will be killed. If they can't be killed due to the plot, they must at least be defeated and then caught in the rematch.
- Fair Fight: I can only bring as many Pokémon into a Rival/Gym fight as the opponent (For now only applicable to Kanto/Johto due to my familiarity)
- Too diverse, have some: Some area's have such diversity that they get split up, meaning [two] Pokémon can be caught there. These are:
- Route 111 (outside & Desert) in Hoenn
- Eternia Forest (Forest & Honey Tree) and Mt Cornet (outside and inside) in Sinnoh
- Pinwheel Forest/Virbank Complex (outside and inside), Dragonspiral Tower (outside and inside) and Victory Road (outside and inside) in Unova
- Finish Line: I complete the run when I become in
- Kanto: League Champion [In-Progress | 4 Badges | 0 Death(s)]
