Topic: HeartGold Randomlocke...?
I have no idea what I am doing. This is mainly for funnies and other kind of entertainment.
The background/concept of the Nuzlocke inspired by this Nuzlocke. GO READ IT, IT'S AWESOME.
RULES
N1. Nicknaming!
N2. Fainting = death; goes into the Box
N3. First encounter only
N3a. Negated until I have received Poké Balls
N3b. Negated if a Shiny is encountered. Cannot be used unless it's my actual encounter, though.
N3c. Places with multiple floors like Union Cave are counted as one area.
N4. If I were to caught a legendary, there might be a surprise...
R1. Trade evos are changed into something possible with one game. The same applies to Feebas evolution, and the Coronet/Eevee rocks evolutions, which are impossible in the original game. The evolutions are changed to high enough level, level with the trade item, or using the evolution stone.
R2. Starter is a random Pokémon with 2 evolutions.
R3. Trainers's Pokémon are randomly assigned. There's no early Wonder Guard, rival evolves his starter. Legendaries are allowed... (what I am doing). Their names and Trainer classes are random, as well... most of the time.
R4. Wild Pokémon are randomly set, in Catch Them All mode (it always choses a Pokémon not chosen before.
Once all are chosen, it goes over the list once again). Time-based, random helds, legendaries are in the wild. Unfortunately, it seems Pokédex's locations are hardcoded. Gift Pokémon seem to be randomized as well.R5. Overworld encounters are random. Legendary<->Legendary, Normal<->Normal
R6. TMs and Move Tutors are random, compatibility prefers typing. No Dragon Rage and Sonic Boom, though.
R7. In-game trades are 100% random. Pokémon, OT, nicknames, IVs, items...
R8. Field items are random. Throughout the entire game, there should be at least one instance of all TMs, and all vital items (HMs and key items) are not randomized. Gift items are not randomized (like TM70 in Sprout Tower), although if it's a TM, the move is still random.
I think I didn't miss anything.
Day 1
[spoiler]This was supposed to be uploaded yesterday, but Internet went dead on me. ._. Expect to see more today, because of that Internet derp
Welcome, soldier! Before you go onwards to the battle, you need to introduceyourself! Who are you, and what is your pseudonym, soldier?!▾
...
So, you call yourself 'Warlock', eh? Fitting, I guess. You'll be deployed in our base in New Bark. You'll receive more instructions as the situation changes. That's the end of briefing. Dismissed!▾
Engineer: So, you're finally brought, huh? Well, before you go anywhere, you should receive this.
A hi-tech bag! It's incredible; it's smaller outside than it's outside. Talk about compression. Next is this card. You can use it to identify yourself whenever needed. If you ever have to stop somewhere that isn't anywhere close to our base, here is a basic kit to set up everything. Anyways, 'Warlock', the briefing room is next doors.
...well, I guess I can first acknowledge myself with this place.
Random Person A Wow! It's one of these high-tech bags, isn't it? They're so awesome.
Random Person 1: Apparently, our dear beloved scientist has researched more on the whole powers thing. He discovered things wecould only dream of few years ago!
Random Person 2:...you're on the wrong floor. The briefing room is below.
D'oh.
-Sometime later-
Scientist Elm: Welcome, 'Warlock'. I'll be straightforward as possible - You first order is to receive a package from Route 30 anddeliver it here. So, what was your power again?
Warlock, Lv. 5 Starly, New Bark Town
Keen Eye - Prevents others from lowering its accuracy.
Mild, good perseverance
Note: Physically (and for gameplay purpsoes) female; mental gender ambigious▾
Scientist Elm: So, you can quell over the wind, hmm? Very well. You shouldn't have too much of the trouble, at least in the beginning. Go onwards,soldier!
-But before I exit the room-
Scientist A: Before you go, have these. They'll help cure injuries and alleviate the pain. They can't bring from dead, though. Remember that, and do not put yourself at larger risk than needed.
Warlock received Potion ×5!▾
Now, onwards to Rout-
???: Hey, you.
Wha, me?
???: Yes, you.
Who are you?
???: Pvt. Lyra, sir... ...Madame...?
Just call me sir.
Lyra: Engineer Thomas wanted you to have this. It's yet another useful piece of equipment. It contains a map of the region, and a radio to communicate with other. Or catch enemy's transmissions.
So, who are you?
Lyra: A scout, sir! I am good at reconnaissance among other things, you see. Anyway, I am needed somewhere else. Goodbye!
-So I exit the base, reaching Route 29. There were some guys there and here, but they didn't seem to be
combat-oriented, easy target. Soon I reach Cherrygrove, via which one can enter Route 30. In a rather
short amount of time, I find the camp.-
Messenger Edward: Ah, there are you, soldier. This is your package. It contains useful info about the powers of such as you, that we have stolen from the enemy. [beat] You look tired. Take this. It's nutritous and should give you enough strength, in case anyone feels like attacking you on the return way.
-However, when I am returning to my base, a surprise awaits me... Crash!-
Ugh... what the hell.
???: Hey you! You look weak. Betcha I can get something from you.
-I take a closer look at the guy. His skin seems to be bit toned towards blue. Notably enough, he has a what is presumably a lily pad on his head... Huh. Presumably he has some power of nature... That's an easy target for someone who can use wind to his joy.-
[You are challenged by Rocker Leo!]
-Truly, this was a piece of cake for me. Few swift attacks wind punches, and there he lies. He is too slow compared to me.-
Leo: ...D-don't be so smart! You just had luck... Ugh.
Yeah, totally.
-After fighting that guy who totally had no idea what he was doing, I return to the New Bark base. However,
soon I learn that the one who I fought wasn't just a random overconfident passerby.-
Scientist Elm: Warlock! We have bad news. While you were off on your mission, a pesk grassy guy broke in and stole some of oursupplies! He ran away before we could do anything... Wait, what is it, soldier? You say you saw him? And you battled him! But then he ran away?
He calls himself Leo. And he doesn't seem to be too much of a threat.
Scout Lyra: Sir! I've overheard and I know where the guy is going! I've seen him going towards the Violet City.
Scientist Elm: Very well. Warlock, your next order is to catch that pesky thief. We have some of our soldiers at Violet, they might help you if you need anything.
-I take a closer look at the whole Lyra girl. She seems unable to stand in one place.-
...are you always that... lively?
Scout Lyra: Most of the time, yes, sir.
Warlock hands over Package to Scientist Elm.▾
Scientist Elm: ...! Interesting... ...so the genetics are involved in this?!
-I try to go towards Violet as fast I can go, but I am interrupted.
Scientist Elm: Warlock, I forgot one thing! There we've been reports of some freelancers. If you meet one, be sure to try andrecruit them! The more power we have, the better. At least, that's what we've been told.
-Now I can go. As I go through Route 29 and pass by the bordering Route 46...-
???: Ow! Stop this! Unhand me! Please!
???: Kekekeke. Why we should?
???: Humph. This guy is a freshie. Reallly fresh.
???: What do you want from me, then?!
???: Not your interest!
-Someone's picking over a weaker one, huh? I'll probably regret this in the future, but...-
You two! Leave him alone!
Guy A: Oh look, someone tries to be a hero.
Guy 1: [beat] You greenhorn... We'll take care of you later.
Guy A: And whatcha you're going to do? Give us some cool bree-
-Before he finishes the sentence, he takes a wind punch. Really hard. Sent flying into the trees, into the woods.-
Guy 1: ...I've never liked him.
-The other one seems to be one of these who have... extra things. In his case, a tail, with which he tries to squeeze me. I try to break his focus by punching him; he recoiled a bit, but by not much. Meanwhile, I feel as my hand hurts a bit. This guy's skin seems to be hard like iron!-
???: Miss... Stop that!
-He tries to kick, punch, and all other stuff, but to no avail. Even I had some trouble penetrating his armor, and he doesn't seem to have as much experience as I do have.-
Guy 1: You pesky!
-He turns around, leaving himself open to my attack. PUNCH! Right in what seems to be a weak spot. The guy runs away before I can do anything more.-
...you okay, young?
???: It's just few bruises, nothing too serious... But thank you, Miss.
...to clear any confusion in the future, I am not a lady. Yes, I look like one, but I am not.
???: So you are a Mister that looks like a Miss?
...I don't think that's correct, either. But if you want to, you can refer to me as if I were a sir. What is your name, and what were you doing here, anyway?
???: Well, my name is... Forte. That's what my parents called me. And... I went find something, maybe find what my powers are... But then these showed up.
If you want to, you can join me. Travelling alone wouldn't be the best idea, anyway.
Forte: Really? Oh, maybe I'll learn something from you! You seem like you had bunch of fights already.
Forte, Lv. 2 SwabluM, Route 46
Natural Cure - When not currently fighting, user can naturally heal any burns, numbed muscles, frostbites or toxins in his body. He also wakes up faster from deep sleep and can melt ice on its body, if someone were to freeze it.
Jolly, likes to fight▾
Cmon, Forte. We need to heal you up.
-We get back to Cherrygrove, where we are taken care of by medic. We also get some more field medicine,
just in case something goes wrong.-
Forte: So, you have to go to Violet, huh? I've never been there, honestly.
I have to go there to catch someone who has stolen our supplies. He's been going towards that point.
Forte: Sounds like a cool mission! I'll try helping y-
"Hyah!"
-Someone has jumped from the trees, into me. And it kinda hurt-
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
-The person visibly flinches back-
???: ...umm... I... don't knoww.... Please don't hurt me!
[sigh]
???: ...I thought... I thought you... were some bad guys! Or something... Stupid me. I don't really know what to do, to be honest.
...it seems you'll be better off with joining us, if you don't even know what you're supposed to do.
???: Oh, really? [glint in the eye]
Forte: The more, the merrier!
Byte, Lv. 4 Porygon, Route 30
Trace - Copies special trait of whoever it's fighting against.
Modest, likes to fight
Note: Female for storyline purposes▾
-As we travel further, we're assulted by some guys. One of them can use electricity. Other two seemed like they could fly, and respectively wield over fire and ice. The ice one was weird. Just looking at him made me feel tired.-
...let me take care of this one.
-As I lung at him with a high speed, it tries to electrocute me. It doesn't take hit too well, although I get a bit injured from the electricity, as well.-
Forte: Electricity! Watch out, Mister!
-Although it proved to be somewhat dangerous, it was soon taken down.-
???: YOU SEEM STRONG. WE COULD EXCHANGE INFORMATION.
...name?
???: JOE. BACK BEFORE I GOT HERE, I WAS RAISING KIDS. I GUESS YOU CAN CALL IT BABYSITTING OR SOMETHING.
Very well, Joe.
Breeder Joe added to the list!▾
-Forte tried to take the fire guy, but he got bit unlucky, so stepped in. The ice guy meanwhile, was unlucky himself... I hit him in the weak spot, and he flinched for a longer while, only to collapse. Fire guy ran away.-
Forte: Just take the time. And look around you... Never forget: This is a beautiful world
...what are you doing?
Forte: Singing. Mommy and daddy taught me a song. I think it's nice.
...you might want to tone down. We don't wanna any attention.
Forte: Oh, okay.
-Soon we reach the Violet City, and then we hear a familiar voice from behind.-
Scout Lyra: Oh, hey, sir! Someone's ahead of me, huh? I see you have gathered some people for our side!
Keep up the job, sir! And don't worry about me, just passing by.
-We heal up in the Violet City camp, then we decite to train the Byte on Route 3–-
Wild Registeel used Explosion!▾
-...God thanks I shielded that hit. All we need is more exploding people. It was anything but nice, but I'd definitely take it better than her. The area didn't end up pretty, though.-
...well, that was close. Anyways, I think we should go to Violet. I mean, I have the order.
-We decide to check the tower standing in the city. As we go through it, we gain a comrade.-
Bob, Lv. 3 Sandlash♂, Sprout Tower
Sand Veil - Can "blend in" with sandstorm.
Relaxed, likes to run▾
-Then some rather tough guy showed up. He created this weird heat and had tough skin...Ugh! He... or she? It sac rocks at me... It wasn't nice. Fortunately, it quickly got tired and I knocked it out.-
[spoiler]fucking Ancient Power Heatran brought him to 1HP. Thankfully, no boost. Plus low PP quickly made him (her? I didn't pay attention to the gender) Struggle
...ugh... I feel... like someone... punched me really hard in the guts... I don't feel good.Gimme some of the medicine!
Byte: Ah! H-here!
...so much better.
Forte: Umm... Mister... Why are you... why are you glowing white?
-Huh?-
Congratulations! Warlock evolved into Staraptor Staravia!▾
[spoiler]why this said Staraptor
-The glow fades... For me to notice that... I changed. I think I mostly become bit.. more bulky,and in consequence, visually larger. I think that makes me more intimidating than I'd otherwise be. I also grew tiny feathers between hands' fingers. Could this be...-
...sometimes, people told that our power can... 'evolve' under certain conditions. I guess that'swhat just happened.
-Unfortunately, the celebration soon ended, as some guy sneakily blew a shockwave against Bob, which send
him flying across the room, through the window, falling to the level of ground floor. The view wasn't too pretty. I took care of the sneaky guy before he did anything more.-
R.I.P Bob: Lv. 3-10
Cause of death: Killed by Electrode's Sonic Boom▾
[spoiler]Ironically, it was the Elder, who was called Preschooler Bob. ;-;
Byte: ...B-Bob...?
...we need to go on. No "But"s. We'll take care of him later.
-After some climbing, we finally make it to the top of the tower-
???: Stop him! He's stealing a Technical Machine. EVERYONE, STOP HIM!
-I notice the whole thief guy... It's the grassy guy!-
...you!
Leo: What the- You, here? Why- Ugh, I don't have time for this.
-And then he jumps out by the window.-
Sen. Mst. Sgt. Eld: ...this guy stole a TM. Dammit!
Well, I know him. My order is to get that guy caught. Unfortunately, he escaped.
Sen. Mst. Sgt. Eld: Well, if that's true...
Warlock received TM70! It contains Body Slam.▾
Sen. Mst. Sgt. Eld: You'll find this more useful than me. Though, the stupid things still break after a single use. Why can't they fix this, for the sake of God?!
...Forte, I think you're bleeding from the nose.
Forte: Itch nofsing, aj chan tsajke it.
-As we exit the tower, we take Bob's body... or whatever left of it, and bury it in the woods. It's probably one of the least visited places, so I guess he can peacefully rest here. The grave is marked with provisory tombstone. Shortly after that, my radio picks something up-
[To everyone of ours who can pick it up... There's a skirmish in the Violet City Barracks!We cannot lose it. It is very well equipped, it's a strategic point! Everyone who can, get there as fast as possible!]
...I guess that's our priority now. Get moving!
???: Hmph! You think can defeat us like that? Pfffft. Try defeating me and my comrade!
You are challenged by Leader Falkner Kate!
Leader Kate sent out Cascoon!▾
... ... ... ...is this a joke?
Leader Kate: Ugh! You don't pick comrades, okay?
-Forte quickly takes down his comrade... which can't do much.
I meanwhile take on the whole Leader guy. He's bit more of a threat, but hardly the fire/metal guy at the tower.-
Leader Kate: Retreat! This place is no use for us... you can keep it, whatever!
...whew. I guess now we can help other finish whatever they started.
Scout Lyra: Congratulations on the victory, sir! The HQ told me to give you this.
Warlock received TM51! It contains Attack Order.▾
-We decide to explore the cave until we receive further instructions-
Byte: It's so dark here... What if someone sneakes on us?!
I'll take care of him. Ha! Just they try to sneak on us...
-Then, there's suddenly a flash of light... And I instantly aim my attack-
???: Whoa, whoa. Calm down. Ain't meaning harm.
What are you doing here?
???: Just taking a trek. It's so calm here... You could take a good rest here.
...I see you're one of these guys who can use the whole bioluminescency thing.
???: Yep. By the way, my name's Quentin, you are?

Byte: ...
Hmm?
Byte: ...He kinda reminds me of that... That g-guy who killed Bob.
I've noticed. Anyway, it's getting late. We should be returning to Violet. We don't have any orders, anyway.
