im about to finish my ground type gym leader theme run of Platinum that i started on a whim.

its got me hungry for playing more pokemon. but i want to do something a bit harder. i would like to try a nuzlocke for the first time.

i dont know what game to play though. i can play anything except switch games. im a lil wary of the 3ds games but if someone wants to recommend one ill hear them out.

Because you suggested any non-Switch game was valid and non-3DS games were preferred and that's the first one my brain randomly picked out of the remaining choices?

I mean I don't do Nuzlockes or watch them or know much of anything about them other than the basic rules so I have no idea which games it's harder to do it in, if that's what you're getting at.

I think most people like black/white for if they are doing a base game nuzlocke, or at least most of the good youtube/twitch nuzlockers. Somethinh with better lvl pacing and im guessing less rivial stuff? Idk I like emerald just because emerald is a good game.

Most hated is gen 2 so probably skip those.

I think fire red omega is pretty good balance if you want to look at a rom hack.

Special set of rules to make Pokemon harder. The most basic ones used in the comic that originated has two: if a Pokemon faints, it dies and you can only catch the first Pokemon you encounter in each area and nothing else.

I imagine people dislike doing Johto Nuzlockes because the level range is just garbage, so the DS ones would have the same issue.

IMO, it's not worth playing them now that there's a remake. There's just fundamental issues with them that the later games resolved.

Sword or Shield but the wild area is banned
Or
Sword/ Shield and you can only use one Pokmon per area from the Kung Fu area, one per area on the map there, no gift Pokmon allowed though

The Gen 6 games (X/Y or OR/AS) are pretty friendly to Nuzlocke rules. Gen 5 and 7 are some of the hardest.

Honestly the fundamental issues are what makes them an experience, especially in a Nuzlocke

I did Ultra Moon. Moon is harder in general but the late game doesn't spike so it ends up easier. Meanwhile ultra moon spikes mostly at the end of the 3rd island and on. The extra trial captain especially is pretty brutal if you don't have a really, really bulky specially defensive pokemon to wall her z move and so on. Would legit recommend that if you don't get a skarmory that you might have to sacrifice a pokemon during the hardest few fights.
