She can identify mistakes and potential criticisms as they arise, or soon after, without needing external identification. It's a sign of a healthy relationship to criticism, and respect to the perspective and knowledge of a particular critic (Jan, obviously).

      That's one thing I like about the Nuzlocke community, in general everyone's really chill & friendly and just looking for a fun time and they're not really in it to judge other people.
      Nuzlockes aren't really my thing, when I play Pokemon, I just do it to relax and chill without needing to stress about anything (hence why I don't plan to ever attempt a Nuzlocke myself), but I still enjoy watching other people do Nuzlockes, since there are times where it alerts me to the fact that certain other Pokemon can be really useful (such as Gastrodon & Cradilly), and that has led to me giving those Pokemon a try myself. It's for a similar reason that I like the Dynamax Adventures in Sword/Shield's Crown Tundra DLC, as it forces players to use Pokemon that they haven't raised themselves, and it forces them to learn how to use Pokemon in different ways to how they might otherwise do so.
      If I ever want to play something that's actually hard, that's when I turn to games like Dark Souls or Bloodborne. But I'm generally a casual gamer, I'm really just in it to relax and have fun.

    My very first nuzlocke is a bw2 soullink with a friend of mine. Not only is it my first nuzlocke, it was my first time playing bw2. I was pretty much relying on my friend to guide me through stuff.
    We’ve had some very memorable moments, but the best part of our run is a audino-magnezone pair we named Audozone. I vividly remember my friend lamenting accidentally running into the rustling grass and getting an audino, then BOTH of us falling in love with the pair as the run went on and they kept carrying the team. They practically became our second starters.
    Unfortunately, audino Audozone died to the team plasma sage’s cryogonal in the frozen city. My friend was quiet for a solid minute before telling me what happened, he was in sheer disbelief. Right now we’re at the water gym and are seriously struggling to make ends meet without them.

    in case you're wondering: the typing rule for the soul link typically works in a way where it rotates who gets the new encounter first, and the second person re-encounters if the two mons share the same primary typing. That being said, that isn't an option for static mons, so if those share the same primary typing, you just can't use them at all. Some people tend to use unusable static mons as "tokens" which you can trade for an additional encounter on any route of your choosing, but I think thats a bit cheap.

    I think a cool challenge for you would be a 'Soul-o-Link' where you play through two games at once by yourself. It would add the extra challenge of optimizing teambuilding for two different games which you were talking about would be really fun for you, and also the risk of losing two mons at once to make it more interesting. And/or a Soul-Link with Wolfey :)

I was very under leveled and I have no idea how I lived, but I did thanks to that Pokemon. While Eldegoss is not my favorite grass type, it is a VERY close second to surviving the "Whipped Cream Massacre" in the Hammerlocke Battle Cafe.

    3:47 Fair point, but I would argue that randomized runs can in fact test your knowledge of Pokemon's systems even more than a standard nuzlocke. Going up against God with a few random pokemon forces you to improvise a plan to defeat him. The more you know about the particular game you're playing, the more easily you can worm your way through the fight.

    30:45 this hits.
    Years ago, beginning in August of 2017, I did a SoulSilver nuzlocke. I got through ALL the gyms with no deaths, minimal over-leveling (1-2 at most), I *think* I even limited the number of pokemon I could use per gym battle but it's been a long time and idk where my rules doc ended up as I have moved computers since then. And then, as I was doing a bit of grinding to prepare for facing Lugia (since I had no deaths and a lot of spare pokemon in case the worst should happen, i wanted to challenge myself to beat it w/o using the Master Ball)... I had THE SINGLE biggest head-empty moment. Worse than Jacob throwing Onix into Jynx, because at least he had a misinformed-yet-well-intentioned friend advising him to make that dumb decision. I was entirely on my own for this entire nuzlocke.
    I was in the Dragon's Den and got into a double battle against the two girls with the Dratinis. At this point, I was leveling up my Ampharos, and my Gyarados happened to be in the second slot. And then, I mindlessly called for my Ampharos to use *Discharge*. If you have even basic pokemon typing knowledge, you probably know what happened next.
    I put that nuzlocke down and haven't picked it back up since Nov/Dec 2017 when this happened.
    I could make excuses for myself. As I said, I was grinding in SoulSilver which, as I believe even Jan has said, has AWFUL wild pokemon levels that make grinding a time-consuming nightmare. And I was doing this on a genuine cartridge and not an emulator, so there was no option to speed up. But quite frankly, there is NO excuse for such a supremely empty-headed move. That was "literal baby" levels of stupid.
    That said, I still haven't reset the cartridge. Maybe one day I'll return to it and finally finish the fight.
