In a quest to not suck at pokemon games and to improve his limited knowledge of newer Pokemon, Ghost takes on Pokemon Platinum in a Randomizer Nuzlocke Run! After a successful Emerald Nuzlocke, we are cranking up the difficulty with a harsher rule set!

Nuzlocke Rules for This Run:
1) Randomizer - Starters, Trainer Pokemon, and Wild Pokemon are randomized (Trainers can have legendaries)!
2) If it faints, it is dead and put into the PC's graveyard
3) May only take Pokemon out of PC if team member dies (exception HM slaves, but must be replaced with same Pokemon)
4) OrderLocke - all replacements to dead members must follow the order that the Pokemon were caught
5) Can only capture the first pokemon encountered in an area, if a duplicate - one retry per route (Shinies can always be caught)
5a) Each cave or building counts as ONE total area, safari zone areas count as separate areas
6) Everything caught must be nicknamed, all nicknames are must be references to Sci-Fi movies, tv shows, books
7) Cannot use the Daycare, though eggs given by the daycare employees can be accepted
8) Poor Man Item Rule - can only buy Pokeballs (any type) and quest items from stores, otherwise only found/given items can be used less
