This game cheats. Or it just does things completely randomly, and I am unlucky. Either way, it really stinks.

Platinum Wedlocke Rules
-------------------------------------------
For an in-depth explanation, please see the following video by Marriland, the creator of the Wedlocke challenge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ2YwKAYHyY . Please note that this challenge of mine does not follow every specific detail in this video (for example, gender and dupes clause), but the basics are still there.

1. Any Pokemon that faints is considered dead, and it can never be used again. Dead Pokemon will be placed in a specific PC Box and never be withdrawn. Unless of course we need to use their corpse to push a boulder, chop a tree, or something similar to that when no living Pokemon can perform such an action.

2. I am only allowed to capture the very first encounter in any route or area. No exceptions, no loopholes. I am not playing with any sort of duplicates clause, and I also don’t care about gender. Gift Pokemon are considered encounters for the area they are received in. Eggs are encounters for the “received” location; not the hatched location. My starter is considered to be from Twinleaf Town, not Route 201 (at least in my opinion).

3. Pokemon are partnered, and they fight together in pairs. Essentially, I do not have one team of six Pokemon; I have three teams of two Pokemon each. If I want to switch out a Pokemon, I can ONLY switch to that Pokemon’s partner. Pairs can never be switched or swapped; they are partners ‘till death. If my active Pokemon is defeated, its partner must finish the remainder of the fight by itself or suffer the same fate. Pokemon in the PC are not paired with anyone until they are withdrawn.

4. Pokemon can not be manually deposited into the PC. If I have a full team of six, and I want to use someone in my PC, someone in my party has to die. One exception is if I need a specific HM and nobody in my party can learn it; in which case I could have a dedicated HM slave that cannot participate in battle. Another exception is if I need to free a space in order to receive a gift Pokemon; in which case I would swap the two back immediately after obtaining said gift Pokemon.

5. Items may not be used from the bag during battle. The only items that can be used are items already being held by my Pokemon, as well as Pokeballs on my encounter for an area.

6. Battle style will be on “Switch”. I typically have this on “Set”, as that adds an additional challenge factor. However, since I am already limited in regards to switching Pokemon, I feel it’s almost necessary. If I succeed in this challenge, I’ll consider doing “Set” in a future Wedlocke.

7. My Pokemon’s levels cannot exceed the highest leveled Pokemon of the next Gym Leader. If this ever happens, the Pokemon in question may not participate in the battle. If it happens beyond my control, then we’ll decide what happens when the time comes.

8. I must use every single Pokemon center as many times as possible, as my character gets anxiety when being away from one for too long. I am also obligated to use repels as often as possible, as my character is allergic to wild Pokemon. … Because screw healing points and being forced to fight wild Pokemon. Dumbest rules in the history of Nuzlockes. =)

The idea for using Pokemon Shuffle icons on the sidebar was gotten from Kroma; yet another fellow Pokemon YouTuber who does challenges similar to Marriland and I: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkhPbez6FBBp9dO1aiNxb0g
