The Nuzlocke Challenge 4: Now with crappy DIALOGUE!

Current Roster:

NUE IS A STARTER IN TOUHOUMON BLUE. I am so playing that next.

Anyway on to the ACTUAL GAME! We have arrived at Lavender Town with a very battered team. We managed to escape Rock Tunnel with a barely alive Hatate the Aya and a somewhat injured Warhead the Utsuho, losing four comrades including my starter Hunter the Reimu and my anti-Marisa Eatme the Tenshi. For insurance I took Beyblade the Hina out of the box and caught Prosper the Momiji on Route 8. Where shall COOLHAT go now!?



Not as planned! Not as planned at all! D: Oh well. I dodged the trainers (or most of them at least) on Route 8, went through the entire underground tunnel, caught nothing (repeat! RARGH) at Route 7, cut through Celadon City and headed to Route 16, where I found...


A C.Keine! I named her Cranium. The spiritual successor to my fallen Tenshi. (in terms of tanking, not type) For the longest time I believed she was a grass type. THAT LEAF IS DECEIVING. Say hello, Cranium.
Cranium: ...
Well okay then. Moving on!
 I already knew there was a free Reisen II in Celadon City, but I didn't want one. 


So rather than picking up that Touhoumon I went to the casino and spent 60,000 Touhou Bucks for 5000 coins to afford the 4800 cost of a C.Alice. I was pretty broke at this point. D: You know Touhoumon as prizes makes me wonder...did this C.Alice come from a...TOUHOUMON MILL!? Raised in a factory from an egg, her mother was abused for more and more Alices! Not only does the Safari Zone require more Alices to supply their reserve, but millions of gambling addicts punch at the slots just to win the ever-popular C.Alice! Is this true, SockPuppet?
SockPuppet: You named the most expensive Touhoumon ever SockPuppet!?
Uh, let's just go grinding. 


You're probably wondering why I didn't just gamble for her. I have horrible luck, as you can tell from the excessive number of fallen Touhou so far. (Or maybe I'm bad P: ) Anyway as I grinded SockPuppet evolved!


Hooray! That PC-98 Alice was starting to smell.
SockPuppet: HEY!


Cranium too evolved.


Much better. I prefer bento hats over leaves. I also noticed her defence was greater than her offence. This fact is important for later.


My Momiji was also along on the boring grinding ride.


SLICE DICE RICE


Anyway after that I returned to the casinos and noticed this strange fellow here. Turns out it led to this massive underground hideout! I felt like EV Training Cranium here (I'll tell you why later) but then I saw a vicious Destiny Bond!DRumia and uh, decided to be a tad more careful...


The boss himself was a pushover.


I guess SockPuppet had extra children leftover from the mills.
SockPuppet : I didn't come from a mill goddamnit!


YEEAHHH DOUBLE BATTLE WOOO


This description is a complete lie! I tried it and all it does is erase statuses! (which I suppose makes sense) We now have Silph Scope! TO THE TOWAH!


MAYBE IT'S THE TEN DEAD TOUHOUMON I'VE BEEN DRAGGING AROUND.


Oh yeah I beat her...except I took the screenshot too early. :X


My first (and only!) Hakugyokurou catch! This makes obtaining a Youmu or Yuyuko impossible.


Her Ayanote entry said she was pessimistic, so...that's the name.


The Rockets owned a Patchy. I figured SockPuppet was most suitable. I obtained a TohoFlute and proceeded to the CELADON GYM!


Oh noes a Yuuka. (I wish I could say EAT ME to her again ;_; ...yes I'm well aware how much Tenshis are raped by Yuukas in this game.) I torched my way to Erika.


Can I set fire to the gym?


When they complained of the heat I decided to cool them off with a SockPuppet Ice Beam too!


Since I caught a Keine at Route 16 (where the other Genji is) I decided to try catching this one on Route 12. I came prepared with several dozen Great Balls.


And proceeded to catch him after two. WTF? o_o I wasn't even expecting to catch him at all! Maybe Warhead's heat was too much... 



If you don't understand the name you know NOTHING of Touhou! NOTHING I SAY!


We are so fucked. They have a Daiyousei.


Prosper, being the equivalent of a...Meowth or something, evolves first!



Prosper: I am not a cat.


Ah yes the longest surviving Touhoumon in my party decides to join her fellow Tengu.


I was seriously considering replacing her too because I already had a Reimu...yeah. Well I already named her Hatate so she can't be in a worse moo--
Hatate: TAKE ME TO THE NAME-RATER.


For some reason I "subconsciously" roasted every Mystia on my path.


I notice that it is night time.


And the FULL MOON IS OUT. When I mentioned the EV Training earlier I had already decided that Keine would become her Steel/Fight hakutaku form and not her Steel/Psychic normal Keine form...since I have SockPuppet! She was annoying to train to say the lea-- *CAVED*


Wow, EX-Keine's back sprite looks awesome. I salute the sprite creators.


Yes. I was wondering where to get a water Touhoumon. (And grass makes her Sadface's spirtual successor!)


I always liked Luigi better than Mario.
Mariooooo why did you dieeeeeee Q_Q

Anyway I finally reached Fuchsia and immediately went to the Safari Zone. For this Nuzlocke challenge I decided to limit myself to one Touhoumon per area. (There's way too much Touhoumon here for just one :C )


Found an Ichirin in the area to the right. Does Cloudking wish to speak?
Cloudking: How can we tell which of us you're speaking to when we both are given only one name?
What? There's two of you? Where? I only see a manly cloud.
Cloudking: D:

Then I went to the Northern area and in the wise words of one Rainbow Dash...


OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH


My team just got 20% cooler. Yes I really did name her that. She is my new Anti-Marisa. (I needed one after Eatme's unfortunate passing) Say hello, FuckYeah!
FuckYeah: I feel like my name should be censored...
Moving on...


FUCK YEAH!
FuckYeah: What?
...I mean YAY!


*cue Final Fantasy fanfare* Dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah dah!


SockPuppet wouldn't want to be left behind either.


I was considering throwing her a stone of something (moonstone?) and getting a Final Alice but nah. To end this part here are my end-level Touhoumon stats!


LOOK AT THAT CRAZY SPECIAL ATTACK STAT. Glass cannon for sure. (Fire/Flying)


A decent physical sweeper with epic speed. I think Hunter was tankier and obviously slower. (Normal/Flying)


Physical sweeper? Maybe, but her type combined with her decent defence makes her a physical tank. YAY TANKS! (Steel/Fight)


Prosper's more of the physical sweeper but since we already have Hatate and Cranium (especially since she shares types with Hatate) I'll probably keep her as the extra. (Normal)


SockPuppet's fairly balanced with the edge going to special attack which is pretty useful considering both her types are special. (Psychic/Ice)

As the day ended I decided to visit the zoo with my Touhoumon.



It was truly an intriguing visit.
