Should I do my first EVER Nuzlocke?
I’ve been watching a lot of videos about nuzlockes, and I wanted to try something new in SV. A Nuzlocke would be fun.

Go for it!
Just in case y’all don’t know what that is:
A Nuzlocke is a playthrough of a Pokémon game with several self-imposed rules. The standard Nuzlocke rules are: Only the first Pokémon on any route can be caught. If that Pokémon is knocked out or it runs away etc., then no further Pokémon will be caught on that route.
You must name every Pokémon you catch.
If one of your Pokémon faint, you cannot use it again.

Maybe not in SV though, SV feels awful to nuzlocke due to the open world and overworld encounters only mechanics.

Nuzlockes are the most popular way to make Pokémon games more challenging, and typically have these rules:
- You can only catch the first Pokémon you encounter on each route.
- You must nickname all of your Pokémon.
- If a Pokémon faints, you can't use it for the remainder of your run.
- Your Pokémon may not be a higher level then the next gym leader's ace.
You can add additional rules for a Hardcore Nuzlocke if you like.
