Pokemon Blue Nuzlocke Time! (Part 14)

[guardians_song]

Remember how Route 17 was invalidated by Dupes Clause in the grass?



I forgot that there's more places to catch Pokemon than tall grass. ;D


Syaoran: *sighs and tries again*

Syaoran: *sighs some more*

Syaoran: Yes! Something new! :D



Cool: Like, man, this is so totally not awesome...


Syaoran: O_o Guess I got lucky, then...


Syaoran: Yes, but that's not your problem in this case...


Syaoran: ...(And should I nickname you Tentacool because you're full of bile?)



((Note: We briefly run into Not-Funny territory here, because "Slowpoke" is getting on in years, so a sudden-onset "speech problem" could very well be a sign of a stroke.
I don't think the developers were giving that much thought to it, but it's unnerving...))


Syaoran: I'm a Nuzlocker. :\
Park Ranger: Poor sap.


Syaoran: Well, I'm DEFINITELY not going to be running out of Safari Balls, so...


Syaoran: Just so long as they aren't gifts to Team Rocket. D|


((*brick joke*))

((See? This was the "invalid catch" I mentioned.))


((I caught the next non-duplicate catch [coincidentally an Exeggcute] in the area. However, I don't know if this is ruled valid by Nuzlocke anti-Safari-BS rules, so just forget this happened for all intents and purposes. Eggbert isn't getting used in-story, so its existence doesn't matter.))



Syaoran: Schrodinger's Exeggcute.
Man: Huh?

Syaoran: *grabby hands* D:<





((Let's see. Can I make this on my first run through? :B))


((LEGIT FIRST POKEMON SEEN IN AREA 2 AND LEGIT FIRST BALL :D))


Rhinox: Finally, I get to see the outside world! :D So long, fellas!
Syaoran: And now I suddenly understand why you got in the Ball so easily.



Syaoran: ...Because you used different Stones? :\



((Dunno what this was.))


Syaoran: Huh... are these the...
((HA! GOT IT ON THE FIRST TRY!))


((AND I GOT THE SECRET HOUSE ON MY FIRST TRY AS WELL! >:D My inner seven-year-old is so proud.))


((...the need to throw something out of my pocket!))

((*sigh* Well, it's not like I don't have cash to spare.))

Syaoran: :D


((HAHAHAHAHA YES I MADE IT IN ONE GO WITH STEPS TO SPARE
AND I GRABBED SEVERAL ITEMS ALONG THE WAY
See, kids? This is how you do a Safari Zone run! ;D))



((All TMs that I'll never use...))


((****!
That's right, folks, Gen 1 also has storage capacity issues with the PC as well as your pockets.
I think they intended you either to not get all the TMs or be using up items like mad. This is just fritzing ridiculous.))



Syaoran: Self included. :\


Syaoran: :D Thank you!

Syaoran: ...Uh, yes, it is, and I found it. It was right nearby your teeth, sir.


((And I have all the TMs! :D [I think I got HM05, but just didn't use it for the sake of bragging rights.]
At any rate, this short update ends here. There will be a CRUDLOAD of pictures when it's time for Blaine and Giovanni, but that's for later.

Also, I apologize for the relatively sparse narration, but... I want to actually get back to the game. This got hideously backlogged after a busy week and some mild illness, and it shows. There's about 1K screenshots to go, so Syaoran will be unusually non-talky for a while...))
