What the title says. i will be playing Pokemon Emerald, using only Pokemon available as gifts or in-game trades. I did this recently for FireRed and found it to be an interesting twist there. I wanted to try Emerald next because it looks like it's the most restrictive game in the series in this regard. The asterisk in the title is because I will allow Pokemon that are required to perform a trade to be used up until that trade is available. This is mainly just to prevent the early parts of the game from being a pure starter solo, which are boring. I'll refer to these mons as "substitutes" since they're "subbing in" for a future trade. I will use subs under the following restrictions: Only one of each may be caught. They must be left in a state/evolution stage where they can be traded. They must be traded as soon as their corresponding trade is available. Here is a list of the allowed Pokemon: Other restrictions/notes: No breeding will be done. This will not be a nuzlocke, because I'm not that much of a masochist. I will try to avoid grinding as much as possible. Not sure about specific limit, but I'll probably try to stay in the range of +/- 5 levels of the next gym leader/whatever other major story event? Outside trading will generally not be allowed. There may or may not be one exception, but we'll get to that when it comes up. So, yeah, Hopefully the restrictions are clear and this sounds interesting enough. Not sure if it will be challenging, but it will be at least a little tedious, so wish me luck. The first update will come later. I wanted to draft the first post to get all the rules/etc out of the way ahead of time.

Heya. I have got two randomizers going on (Emerald, right before Roxanne, FR, choosing starter) and there are some hard choices to make... So why not ask here? Anyways, ı've included the questions on a poll and I will follow what the majority says. I could possibly do a playlog though I might either have to cut the pictures or make small updates if something goes wrong IRL though.
