So for those who have played Pokémon for a while you probably know about the Nuzelocke Challenge. This is a thread for developing ideas similar to this. I'd also like to know who in the ironhide community has done the Nuzelocke Challenge.
So here is my first idea.
Gym Lock Challenge
Rules
1.You can only use a Pokémon once to beat a gym(So if you beat the first gym with say a pidgey, you can tus el pidgey on the second gym)Evolved forms of Pokémon count as different Pokémon.(Rule also applies to Pokémon League)
2.Must use a least three Pokémon that are weak to the gym
3.Can only use one super effective Pokémon to the gym
(Hardcore)4.Dragon types are banned(Because Neutral Damage to pretty much everything is op)
5.All Pokémon must be nicknamed
Hardcore Rule 6. Have to beat Pokémon league 5 times not counting the story if required
Same Type Challenge
Rules
1.You use Pokémon that are have at least one type in common with the final evolution of your starter.
2.Can only use STAB moves, or normal type attacks
Hardcore Rule 3. Items that boost the damage of your type are banned.
