Nuzlocke Randomizer
Pokemon Let’s Go Pikachu and Eevee are very unique Pokemon games that require a very different set of rules. Here are the rules I will be following when getting a first encounter in a Pokemon LGPE Nuzlocke.
UPDATE: These rules have been revised. Click here for the revised rules.
Hey people, randomizer does not equal nuzlocke. So quit complaining about it allowing you to do non nuzlocke things. Mickey Mouse Dumb House 1 year ago.
Catching Pokemon: This is definitely the biggest rule change in these games. Since wild Pokemon are found wandering around in the overworld, it is very difficult to get a random encounter like in previous games. I originally considered standing still and waiting for the first wild Pokemon to bump into me, but I realized that this would prevent me from getting Pokemon that likely teleport and try to avoid the trainer, like Abra. Instead:

This challenge is a normal Nuzlocke Challenge, only that all the Pokemon in the Wild are Randomized! This allways builds pretty crazy teams, finding lv 7.
- I will allow myself to choose which Pokemon I want to encounter. After encountering the first Pokemon I bump into (whether it’s the one I wanted or one I accidentally run into), I may throw up to 5 Pokeballs.
- If I fail to catch it in 5 throws, I can still run into another encounter. HOWEVER, my next encounter cannot be of the same species as the previously encountered one. Of course, if there is only one species of Pokemon that I can catch in an area, this rule does not apply.
How To Do Nuzlocke Randomizer
- For example, if I run into a Pidgey and fail to catch it, my next encounter can’t be a Pidgey. Let’s say my second encounter was a Rattata that I also failed to catch. My next encounter cannot be Rattata, but it can now be Pidgey again.
- In the end, I can have up to four encounters and if I fail to catch any Pokemon after my fourth encounter, I do not get an encounter for the area.
Gym Requirements: It has come to my attention that many of the Gyms have requirements to enter, such as having a Grass-Type or having caught 50 Pokemon. Obviously, this makes a Nuzlocke very difficult. I will try my best to abide by these requirements without breaking any rules. However, if absolutely necessary, I will allow myself to catch any Pokemon I need for a Gym. Obviously, these Pokemon will not count as an encounter and will be unusable during the Nuzlocke.
“Gym Training”: After playing through the game for a little while, I realized that it will be extremely difficult without being able to train Pokemon. In order to make up for this, I made up the rule that I can catch 6 Pokemon before each Gym, with one more added per Gym I’ve beaten. These Pokemon are solely to gain experience and must be sent to Oak. I can however use the Candy from this.
Nuzlocke Randomizer Settings
Note: I recommend using a different rule for training. It is near impossible to beat the game with this rule, much less without any training at all. I would recommend allowing yourself to catch an unlimited amount of Pokemon for grinding.
I have no clue how well this will work and how it will work with mechanics like fishing, but this is how I will go through with catching Pokemon. I will be sure to update this if I have any changes to my ruleset! At the end of the day, this is just how I will play it. Feel free to handle first encounters in any way you want!
