Nuzlocke Run... GAME OVER (Days 3-8)
15 years ago
Well, that didn't last long. I'm going to give the details in the comic I am slowly and poorly drawing, but the gist of it is: My luck is terrible, critical hits hate me.
The endgame was pretty nerve-wracking, I had a LOT of close calls in the last two gyms, as well as the Victory Road. Slowly but surely, with few hitpoints and few potions, I made it to the Elite Four with Pikablu the Azumarill, Treebeard the Shiftry, Falcor the Flygon, SirWrecker the Armaldo, Bandit the Linoone, and Shade the Crobat.
Sum up of the Elite Four:
Sidney (Dark-type dude) started with Mightyena, SirWrecker made quick work of it work Fury Cutter. After it fainted, he switched to his main weapon, that scary high level Absol (my team being mostly in the mid 40's). Absol gets first strike and takes SirWrecker down by a third of his health. SirWrecker gets it down to about half health continuing with Fury Cutter. Absol noms a berry. After seeing that damage I felt a little uneasy but hoped Fury Cutter would finish it off next round. "Absol used Sword Dance", flashes the screen before Fury Cutter brings it down to like 1 hp. I wasn't about to risk losing a teammate so soon, so I switched to my brick wall, Pikablu. A full restore and two more Sword Dances later, Pikablu was OHKO'd by a Slash attack. I was so sad/furious, so in a vengeful strike Falcor crit Earthquake'd in honor of his fallen ally. The rest of Sidney's team fell to Shade's Aerial Ace.
Phoebe (ghost-type lady) lost her entire team to Treebeard's efforts. Cakewalk.
Then came Glacia (ice)... I led off with Bandit. Managed to pull of 6 Double Teams, two X-accuracy(s), a Dire Hit, and two X-attacks (just to be safe). A full restore later and Bandit was one-shotting her team with Iron Tail, until the Walrein. That Walrein was apparently made of Nintendium because it was indestructible. It took two critical hits (and a bunch of normal ones) just to get it down to half health (post full restore). Then suddenly, against all odds, she lands a Sheer Cold on poor Bandit. Once Bandit fell her comrades were like dominoes. All with an ice weakness (except Sir Wrecker, who was the newbie and was the lowest level), one Ice Beam per was all it took to stop 'em cold.
In a mix of rage and sadness I went to my box and grabbed the one Pokémon I had left that had a chance of survival, Raimundo the Rayquaza. Being driven by nothing but revenge for the fallen Raimundo and I swept the Elite Four, leaving just the Champion.
Wallace apparently had two goals in life: become a water champion, and teach everything Ice Beam. Raimundo could take a few hits, and swept half of his team. But one crit Ice Beam from that ^&*( Milotic was all it took to stop us cold and end the game.
