An Introduction to Nuzlockes: Pokémon’s Fan-Made Challenge Mode
<p>If you spend pretty much any time in circles with Pokémon players, you’ve probably heard the term Nuzlocke thrown around, but may not have known what it was or how it related to the game.</p>
<p>A Nuzlocke is a player challenge for the main series Pokémon games, created entirely by the fan community, that actually make it possible to <em>lose</em> a Pokémon game if you aren’t careful.</p>
<p>The rules of a Nuzlocke are as follows:</p>
<p>1: You can only catch the first Pokémon you find in a new area</p>
<p>2: You have to give a nickname to every Pokémon you catch</p>
<p>3: If a Pokémon faints, it “dies” and can no longer be used. Players can choose whether to simply put their fainted team member into a PC box, or release it back to the wild</p>
