#TFS Pokemon Platinum Nuzlocke

[knightofarcane]

some more TFS Platinum Nuzlocke art, wanted to do my own version of their Scyther Kirxia, using inspirations from Kairi, Organization 13, and Nobodies, and think it looks very epic

Bidoof Logs 20XX - Day 15 Days without Ryfuba: IIIII

Why hello everyone, Dager here to entertain you about Ryfuba's journey with the projections of Narkama? Huh? I sound fine? Of course, I know that Ryfuba can't cater to all of our needs, so I can only support him from the sidelines. As long as Ryfuba is happy that's all that matters! ... Yep! That's all that matters! Anyhow, Ryfuba is still in the Eterna Forest with that pretty lady Cheryl and her Chansey. Looks like they finally made it to the end of the forest. Up ahead was this creepy looking mansion. Cheryl stated that it was the Old Chateau and that it was haunted. Looks like she's a bit spooked, wonder if Cheryl has been into that place before? Since Ryfuba safely guided Cheryl to the end of the forest, she thanked him by giving him a Soothe Bell. Maybe he should give it to Raisin to hold, he's getting a little too high and mighty. Instead Ryfuba gave it to Traktorr. Gee, hope that doesn't affect his Intimidate ability. Can you imagine it? A Staravia trying to intimidate you, but just gives you this blissful look? That would totally lower my attack stat. 

Ryfuba exited the forest to Route 205. After trucking through that forest, Ryfuba didn't really feel like catching a Pokemon on this Route... even a Bidoof. Ryfuba picked a few berries and slathered a tree with honey. Wow I sure feel a little hungry... those Budew are always rather tasty, they taste like melon, but I've refrained from eating another Pokemon. It freaks people our. Like Raisin. Always Raisin. Ryfuba decided to battle a few fishermen on the bridge on the Route. Perhaps not the best idea... Cleo may have eaten a few of their Magikarp if not all. Good think Gilly isn't watching all this. I can only pray to the almighty Peanut Butter that their afterlife will be a fine one where they can Splash all day without a care in the world. 

Well look at that! Cleo is finally evolving! Let's see what she turns into! 

Some grotesque growth involving a lot of muscle expansion and bone morphing later 

Eck... still weird as ever... wonder if evolving hurts? But looks like Cleo has evolved into a Luxio. She got a little bigger and she has that ferocious look in her eyes. She also has a mane... huh that doesn't seem right...? But what do I know? Ryfuba made his way into Eterna City, this is the biggest city they've been to so far! Look at all the sights! After making his way to the Pokecenter, Ryfuba decided to play around with his apps on his watch. He got to the friendship checker app to check how everyone felt about him. ..... looks like the only ones who actually likes Ryfuba are Traktorr and Raisin, and I'm kind of sure that was out of pity.... Don't worry Ryfuba! I'll always be on your side! 

Ryfuba saw a bicycle shop and ran towards it, only to find out that the owner was gone. Gasp Looks like all those emo cosplayers have made a base here in this city! It also appears that the owner of the bicycle shop is being held captive! For the sake of popping wheelies, Ryfuba is going to crush them! To the base!  Annnnndddd here's Drokuma.... sigh this f**ker again... pardon my French. He was pretty oblivious to the spiky base and instead dragged Ryfuba towards a huge statue. Looks like someone was there before us, a person in one of those emo cosplayer outfits, but for once he didn't look that generic. He was mumbling to himself, something about time and space. He had this really edgy look on his face as he passed Ryfuba and Drokuma. Wonder who that guy is? Ryfuba took a look at the statue. It was that of a Pokemon, but it looked more like two Pokemon fused together into one. Pokemon fusion? That's silly, we're not monsters that can be fused together into a stronger Pokemon! That only happens in digital stuff! Anyways, Ryfuba better rest up! He's going to need all his strength tomorrow to put the beat down on those emo cosplayers!

Never posted this on here for some reason but this is my take on Prince Raisin from Team Four Stars’ LP of pokemon Platnium. This ended up being the thumbnail for episode 29 of that series and I still find myself being overly giddy about that.      See more of my artwork on these social medias!

Ive been watching TFS's platinum nuzlocke =w=;; thanks sher

[megashadowmew]

"I, future emperor RAISIN, command you, all of you...DIE!" Fan art for TeamFourStar's Pokemon Platinum Nuzlocke Prince RAISIN will avenge his court with the power of the king (Geass).

[summergirl2408]

So I started a Pokemon Platinum randomizer nuzlocke (cause why tf not) and my starter died on the second trainer and it would have lived if I had gotten a slightly better roll on the damage I did and now I'm sad

[ladycremecaramel]

My Pokemon Platinum Nuzlocke Chapter 8

Number of deaths: 1

Hey y'all here we are again with Platinum Nuzlocke. Last where we left off, We faced Roark at Oreburgh city gym and obtained the Coal Badge. But it wasn't without loss as Sasha was killed by that stupid rock dinosaur.

A death was bound to happen and hopefully we'll have another grass type again to fill in the spot or a type coverage. So...after some thinking of who to put on the team for now, I chose

Mlem

Yep Mlem, here's why: Future double battles. And for the Nuzlocke veterans who know which othe teammate would be really good with Mlem? Splish. I have heard they're both really good together. Especially since Gyrados is a flying type and immune to ground type moves.

Like Earthquake

Cinderella will eventually get some time on the team. I like the idea of leveling everyone up bit by bit. Anyway, since I already explored the city during my downtime, it was time to leave and go to a lower level area to grind a bit.

And I nearly get ran over by my sugar high friend, Barry.

He spouts off about the next badge is in Eterna city before running off again.

He's a runner! He's a track star! 🏃‍♂️💨🙄

I soon follow after where I run into the one trainer I snuck past in Oreburgh Gate in a previous chapter. Now I'm facing her and her lvl 9 Bidoof. I moved Splish to the front earlier to switch out with Bongo the Chimchar. After a few embers to the face, it went down and I moved on to Route 203....where I ran into another trainer I forgot about. Lass with a lvl 8 Psyduck. Again I switched out Splish with Ludo the Shinx. It went down after some scratches. Moving on again.

Once I entered Jubilife City, guess who I ran into again?

Yep this guy.

He asks about Pal Pads at first. Who tf uses a Pal Pad in 2022???

Well anyway he said he was moving on to the next place of interest. OK don't care bye bye.

Get to the pokemon center and then

Grind

Ok not like that but I thought it was funny and couldn't help it 😂

🕛🕧🕐🕜🕑

Alright I leveled up everybody. Even Cinderella.

Now we gotta go North and take care of some biz before I continue wreaking havoc in Jubilife.

Oh looky here.

A pair of fashion fails and some nerds.

😂 I'm so mean. So I get closer and the fashion fails want Professor Rowan's stuff or the kid gets it. Rowan acts like they're not there when I arrive on the scene and checks my progress and is like "I have chosen wisely."

The pair of freaks are like "Bruh! Why you gotta be so difficult?! Give us your shit!"

Rowan snaps back "Stfu! Why you being so difficult?"

Damn Rowan! He is slaying away! 👀🍿 omg I love it. I take it back, you are not a nerd. He even calls them out on their taste in clothes. And THEN he tells us "Don't grow up like these lame-o's."

Well to no one's surprise, the fashion fails are also stupid and want to fight. Rowan, being a boss tells us kids to "Teach these thugs some civility, please."

With pleasure, old man.

To be continued in the next chapter. Cuz I hit the 10 image limit too soon.

don’t know if any of my followers watch TeamFourStar - they do a bunch of abridged series on YT - the most famous one being DBZ abridged.  A few of them also have a TFS Plays channel.  Currently the hubby and I are watching them play Pokemon Platinum as a Nuzlocke.  It’s hilarious.   They got my fav starter and then made jokes about how he’s a Prince and they’ve made his voice all pompous.  One of the recurring jokes is that he rides behind their Trainer character in a rickshaw.  So I attempted to draw it.  The player character’s shirt lost the “Crit Happens” logo (which is that a shirt somewhere? i feel like that needs to be a shirt somewhere)  because this series has had a lot of critical hits XD  Cleo (the luxio) has ambitions to marry Prince Raisin.  And the Beautifly, Pico, is basically an eldritch being that announces the Word of Arceus for the Glory of Raisin (yes they say it like that) Anyway I’m kinda proud how this turned out :)  And if you like let’s plays I highly recommend checking these guys out they’re hilarious (if you don’t like pokemon they do lots of other stuff as well - including Batman Telltale which is also amazing)

i’m catching up on tfs playing pokemon platinum and

yet another reminder of all the innocence taken during this nuzlocke so far

[stenka-razin]

How different is Platinum from Diamond/Pearl? I’m on record as having ranked Diamond/Pearl as the worst Pokemon games in the main series, which I stand by heartily. I have heard Platinum is better, but I’m not clear on how different it is. Are there still way too many HMs? Too many pointless legendaries? Is half the game bogged down in the damn mountain? 

Reason I ask is TFS has got me hankering to do another Nuzlocke, since Platinum is supposedly the hardest of the all. Is the game worth tracking down or am I fine with Pearl?

[huandamonia]

Diamond Days - Day 6 - Capturing Croagunk!

So after a grueling six days of work, I’m finally back to playing Pokemon Diamond.

After training NeoCleo, she is now a Luxio at the same level as the rest of my team. And since she knows bite, I decided she was ready to take on Fantina and the ghost gym!

...Except you apparently challenge Fantina much later. I guess watching TFS’s Platinum Nuzlocke has given me some misconceptions.

Well, whatever. So I head down to Route 212 to Pastoria City. Via the introduction of Pastoria’s mascot, I remember that Croagunk is in this game.

AND I ABSOLUTELY HATE CROAGUNK.

For explanation, Croagunk is one of the fighters in Pokken Tournament. I played Pokken on the switch for a little until I got bored, but I still have painful memories of being absolutely terrible with Croagunk. Normally, that would mean I just wouldn’t use them. But Pokken provides a daily challenge that rewards you if win with a certain fighter enough times. And so, one day, the challenge force me to play as Croagunk.

And I lost.  

And I lost. 

And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost. And I lost.

All of this was compounded with Croagunk’s terrible defeat animation. Most other fighters’ defeat animations have them stay composed, but Croagunk just acted like a whiny little snot. So this idea of Croagunk as an overconfident annoying reprehensible punk was drilled into my brain.

And that is why I hate Croagunk.

But that hatred doesn’t include Toxicroak. And I REALLY need a fighting type.

So I caught a Croagunk at the marsh (as well as got defog) and added him to my team. So with a reluctant welcome, say hello to Nenki!

After that, I went into the water gym and crushed everyone with NeoCleo and Trinido. Honestly, not much worth mentioning there, my team covers against water pretty well.

I did some more traveling, but nothing left worth mentioning. I’ll see you again next time on Diamond Days!

Bidoof Log 20XX – Day 7

OMG SOMETHING LONG, BLACK, AND HARD!!! Awww… Raisin made it go limp… thanks Raisin… -_- Well guess we have to explore more of this mine. After Raisin drowned a few more dudes, (and another long, black, hard thing), we found the Oreburgh Gym Leader. He really tried to impress us by smashing a rock. Great fantastic, I could do that too… but I just don’t have my license let (grumble grumble stupid license, who the f*ck needs a license to smash rocks? Grumble grumble…). Anyway, looks like we can challenge the Gym Leader now, so we’re going to leave the mine. But before that, we should probably train up, don’t wanna lose anyone at the first gym, that would be embarrassing… Cleo. 

Well looks like we’re good enough to challenge the gym. I think my muscles are starting to grow! Well let’s get out of here already. Wait hold on, you guys head on without me for a bit, I’ll be right back. 

A few minutes later 

I tried to practice using Rock Smash before getting the Gym Badge… I failed… none of the rocks were smashed. Instead I turned all that coal into something harder… and shiny…. Man… this sucks… I probably ruined the mine, there’s not a single piece of coal left, just shiny stuff. Hope no one knows what I did, this would probably be a scandal… I can see it now…. 

"Awesome strong Bidoof turns all the coal in the city into shiny stuff instead! City falls into a great depression!" 

Oh well… the least I can do is bring this big shiny rock I made as a reminder of my sin. I can only pray to the great Peanut Butter that I am forgiven. As my punishment I’ll sleep on my shiny rock tonight!

I’ve made a terrible mistake….

Quirky- Come up with a concept for a pokemon with new type combo

dark/fairy type based on the more violent fairy myths,

[hideandseaking]

What do you think are the easiest and hardest Pokemon generations to nuzlocke?

From easiest to hardest, in my personal experience:

Gen 6Gen 2Gen 1Gen 7Gen 3Gen 5Gen 4

Now I’ve put 7 in the middle because I haven’t fully done a SM Nuzlocke yet, but I am in the beginning of a wondertradelocke for Sun so ask me in June for a new list at that point ahaha

I’ll put some reasoning for each choice in a read more if you’re interested on the placements and why I put them where (:

Gen 6 (XY and ORAS):

Definitely the easiest in my personal opinion. I’ve done 3 different XY lockes (Wondertradelocke, Alphabet Wonderlocke, and a Tradelocke) and I’ve procured the least amount of deaths from the Wondertradelocke. I believe only 3 Pokemon died. The Alphabet Wonderlocke was harder because I was forced to use alphabetical order, which forces a lot more out of you. But by the time I went to the E4 with a team of 6, I have two level 100 pokemon from grinding up potential new teammates. It’s cute when Diantha mega evolves her Gardevior and you one-shot it with your Armaldo’s X-Scissor. The Tradelocke with Dan was the hardest of the 3 but that’s partially because he’s a jerk who gives me underleveled pokemon constantly fdasjfkld The EXP share is very enabling during it, so to make it harder I would suggest turning it off right at the beginning.

As for ORAS, I’m currently at the E4 with Dan in a Tradelocke of that. I’ve only lost like... 6 Pokemon, I think? I don’t have my 3DS on my atm. But even with the EXP share turned off starting after the 5th gym, it’s been painfully easy. Definitely a good game to start with if you’ve never Nuzlocked before, but for a seasoned veteran this isn’t fun to play as a nuzlocke

Gen 2 (GSC):

I’ve part-way Nuzlocked Crystal up to Chuck, and I’m almost complete with a Vietnamese Crystal Nuzlocke (almost ready for the E4 actually), and the death counts are consistently low in these games. I’ve only lost once in a Viet. Cry. Nuzlocke to Falkner due to really bad luck but other than that I’ve always prevailed. I’d say they’re the easiest if the EXP share wasn’t how it is in Gen 6. I always lose a Geodude to Whitney and then have a barren land of deaths until around Blackthorn. If everything goes smoothly in the Viet. Crys. Nuzlocke, then I’ll come out with 3 deaths?? I’ve also done a 3-way GSC Nuzlocke Stream where I was on Gold, and we made it to Jasmine without any trouble at all really. None of us had more than 2 deaths. They’re very easy games the Nuzlocke. Another good beginner set for anyone.

Gen 1 (RBY):

If you can’t tell already, I like to play hacks and ROMs instead of the real games, and alternate versions of Nuzlocking instead of traditional. My experience with RBY has been a Crazy Randomizer Version of Red and a partial tradelocke turned Nuzlocke with Blue. With the Crazy Randomizer, it took me 28 tries to not die before Brock, but after the 28thh reset it was smooth sailing and I made it to the E4 before my laptop threw away the file. I had a Moltres named Lucifer and everything RIP. But that isn’t to say that these games weren’t hard. There are a lot of deaths peppered in these games, as they’re unfair and the coding came from another dimension. When I was tradelocking with my brother, he died twice to which we had to restart. In both games I’ve been reduced to a party of 2 and nothing more. They’re a good standard of tough but not unholy unfair. A little boring to play at the beginning if you’ve seen it before, but honestly still fun.

Gen 7 (SM):

Now, like I’ve said, I’m only doing a Sun Wondertradelocke atm (though I have bidders for a Tradelocke... and a 4-way Tradelocke....) and thus it’s going in the middle. I’ve only gotten up to Hala? I’ve lost a few Pokemon already, and I know these games are going to be a little more tough than XY at least. ...If you turn off the Exp share. Idk yet tho. Nothing is too certain here until I complete that tradelocke. Like I said, come back to me in June when I’ve probably gotten a lot farther and can gauge the games more then.

Gen 3 (RSE and FRLG):

I’ve played these games so much just kill me. Ruby is my Nuzlocke for my comic, and I’ve made it clear before that the death count came out low for it. It’s a pretty easy game in all honesty. I’ve done an Omega Emerald nuzlocke where I quit before Petalburg. And I’ve done an Emerald 365 Nuzlocke where I died in that too. Maybe if I tried Emerald I would see harder results, but once you know how to play the game, Ruby is easy. I’d recommend trying Emerald for more toughness but I wouldn’t expect much from these games.

That being said, FRLG is a lot harder. Leaf Green was the first Nuzlocke that I ever completed and I almost filled a whole box. It sucks evolving your Eevee into a Jolteon to have it taken from you right away. Or having your Primape that’s 8 levels above an Ivysaur get demolished in one Vine Whip. It’s tough. Like??? Really tough?? I’d have to pick up one again to see if it was just my beginner aspects that made it tough or if it was the game itself, but that box count doesn’t lie. This is why Gen 3 is up higher in my opinion, because this game hurt a lot lmao

Gen 5 (BW and B2W2):

Pain and suffering! Pain and suffering!! I’ve completed a White Nuzlocke and only a White Nuzlocke out of these games. I filled a box. I was down to a team of 3 after the 5th badge and it didn’t fully replenish until after the 7th badge gym. I’d evolve something and it would get brutally murdered 30 minutes later. I’ve seen a Bisharp 15 levels under my Archeops take it down from full HP to 0 in one hit. This game is brutal. It’s terrifying. I fear the day I’m bored enough with the others to go and try these again.

I have a White 2 Nuzlocke somewhere but I’m afraid of this game too. I haven’t picked it up recently because my team got down to 1. I was relying on a Delcatty in Burgh’s battle. I’m at the 5th badge gym in it currently and I’m pretty sure I have a team of 5 in it. It’s scary and I’m afraid of going back to that game too. This is a super tough generation as a whole, but it’s so rewarding to beat one.

Gen 4 (DPPt and HGSS):

Y’all I haven’t even gotten close in a DPPt game. I die before the 4th gym every time. I don’t even know what it’s like to battle Wake in these games. Everything seems moderate and then you get to Solaceon town and you’re left for dead. Things kill you. You die. Not to mention, who tf wants to put up with the game speed in DP?? At least try Platinum for comfort but that’s just even harder. If I ever manage to beat one of these games, I’ll tell you. But honestly respect to anyone who has, because these are brutal games.

As for HGSS, I’ve beaten SS before and GOD it took me 2+ years. The experience climb is the most painful one I’ve ever had to deal with. These games test your patience and penchant for grinding. You can’t even get half the Pokemon you want until the game is over. I believe I filled a good portion of my box in these games too, but the fact of the grinding climb being so slight in the games is just sad and hurtful. Also seeing your Pokemon walk behind you and then they die can be a little more heart-wrenching than the other games. These are fairly tough as well because of Whitney but overall the gameplay is fair enough. Just a lot of patience and stamina required for these games.

Anyway, that’s all I gotta say from my personal experience. I hope you enjoyed this and if you’ve had a different experience, feel free to share it lmao

Pokemon Platinum NUZLOCKE Part 58 - TFS Plays
