So im starting a nuzlock in Legends arceus and my rules are

Nickname everyone

Only one pokemon per area and in the corner it says like a small part of where you are.

One alpha per big area like the obsidion feild lands cornet highland stuff like that

and if they faint then they D1E!

I will post updates and im choosing oshawat for my starter because it has the best move coverage.

    So I started yesterday played like 20min.

    I forgot to say that no duplicate pokemon.

    I let me have the ones you catch for the totorial and put those all in the first area.

    I choose oshawat and its nickname is Osher and I might change thier nicknamed everytime they evolve.

    The Bidoof Is named Bidoooooooof and im not sure if I should evolve him because I like bidoof better then Bibarel.

    The starly is named Starler.

    I chaught a wurmple for the next area and its name is wurmpleybro and it evlovled at lv8 and I caught it lv4. So any nickname ideas? Its the white one.

    So since I cant catch anyone then Its mostly just battleing and useing moves that it says in the pokedex.

    I plan to be able to catch pokemon but then release them.

    So Wurmpleybro is very good to me becuase he has poison sting and iron defence so I use it alot.

    Im kind of scared the Akari's pickachu may faint someone and I loose them so im grinding alot trying to get them all to level 18ish so they dont over level and they wont listen to me. And a chalenge for this battle is that Osher and Starler gets super efective so I mostly have to rely on Wurpleybro and Bidoooooooof and I wont evolve Bidoooooooof first becuase of over level and second becuase its going to be water type.

    The rest is mostly grinding on bidoof shinxs starlies ponyta and wurmples.

    Also for the alpha thing I get to choose to alpha I might go alacazam or snorlax.

    I think you should evolve the Bidoof. I used to feel the same way about some Pokémon and wondered if I should evolve them, and then after using it the evolution becomes one of my favourites. It's the best part of Nuzlockes— you're forced to use Pokémon you normally wouldn't, and so you learn that they're not that bad.
