Pokemon Emerald Nuzlocke–Part 1

Last time I laid down THE LAW. The Nuzlocke Law.

As a callback to Generation I, I start my adventure as a young trainer named… I’m a boy, god dammit! Freakin’ hell, Birch. I start my adventure as a young trainer named Red. Apologies in advance. Forgot to take screencaps of the first couple hours of gameplay. Whoops.

So the day starts in the back… of… a van. Right. So mom lets me out of the moving van and I take a tour of the new house, making sure to set the clock. Apparently we’re family friends with this region’s PKMN PROF. So I should see him. To the lab!

I’m told the professor is out doing fieldwork. Fieldwork is then explained to me, in case I didn’t know what it was (HINT: I did). For some reason I then walked into his house and was told, by his wife, to go upstairs into their daughter’s room. SCORE. I think she said something about going to help her dad… I really don’t remember. Whatever she said, I end up going to the tall grass, where the wild Pokemon are. And there, Professor Birch is being chase by a level 2 Zigzagoon. Really? REALLY, Birch?

So I grab a Pokemon from his bag and use it to kick the crap out of saiz Zigzagoon. Now, I mentioned that I randomized the ROM. So my three choices for a starter could have been ANYONE. They ended up being Metang, Camerupt, and Sneasel. I opted for Sneasel and named it Fullmetal. After taking out my first wild Pokemon, Birch tells me to follow him back to the lab. Creeper.
