Don't Contact Me, I Left Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Wanted to see if anyone wanted to do a Soul Link with me? It'd be best for a similiar timezone to mine, in which mine is EST (6:55 RN). Also, hopefully you can have a Discord so we can screensgare without chatting. (cant chat cuz parents, sorry c:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lspaceship Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Remind me what a Soul Link is, and we can try it? I will warn you now, I'm no good at the game, so it may end.....poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are unfamiliar with nuzlockes, they are challenge runs where you self-impose rules to make the game more difficult. The two most basic rules of a nuzlocke challenge are that you may only catch the first Pokemon encountered in an area/route, and that fainting is equivalent to death, meaning that fainted Pokemon may no longer be used in battle. A Soul Link adds the additional rule that every Pokemon caught by one player must be "linked" to a Pokemon caught by another player in that same area. Say, for example, you two were to do a Soul Link of Rejuvenation. In Gearan Sewers, you encounter and capture a Woobat. You tell @lolokxd who then encounters and catches a Trubbish in Gearen Sewers. From that moment on, those two Pokemon are paired. If you were to deposit your Woobat into the PC, they would have to deposit their Trubbish. If their Trubbish were to "die" in battle, your Woobat would also be considered dead and neither Pokemon could be used again for the rest of the run. Also, if one person fails to capture their first encounter in an area/route, the other person must forfeit theirs as well. In a Soul Link, both players should always have the same amount of Pokemon. Some people add more rules such as gender clauses (i.e. if you encounter and catch a female Pokemon, @lolokxdwould have to keep encountering Pokemon until they find a male). Two people I follow on YouTube have the rule that, across both players teams, no primary typing can be repeated. But really, you only have to follow the three rules I covered for it to be considered a proper Soul Link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lspaceship Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Sounds fun. Again, I'm not good at nuzlockes, so it may end poorly, but it'd be a good time-waster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
