Also just to clarify, failure to catch the first pokemon you meet means you get NO pokemon at all from that area, is that correct?

Dear diary,

I couldn't sleep. I was so antsy about not catching anything in
in Route 30 that I just had to go back. I ended up running into
a Bellsprout! I caught her pretty easily and named her Sophia.
The only move she knows is Vine Whip.

Welp, I know who I'm not using against Falkner.

After that, I got tripped up by a little kid in a straw hat
holding a butterfly net. Of course, he wanted to battle. His
last Pokemon was a Weedle, and while it wasn't much trouble to
take down, it still poisoned Cocoa. I tried to rush him to the
nearest Pokemon Center, but the bug catcher wouldn't let me go
until I exchanged phone numbers with him. What a little creep!

I gave in, and now I've got Bug Catcher Wade registered in my
Pokegear. Joy. I ran back to the Pokemon Center in Violet City,
and just when I thought Cocoa was going to die of poisoning,
the poison went away, just like that. What a fightening
experience.

After a near-death experience like that, I realized I need to
be more prepared than I am. I stocked up onAntidotes at the
PokeMart. I'll have to be more on top of
things if I want to make it anywhere out here.

Dear diary,

apparently, Falkner doesn't let just anybody challenge him.
I had to climb the Sprout Tower before I was allowed entrance
to the Violet City Gym.

Once I'd made it to the second floor of the tower, I discovered
that it was completeky infested with Pokemon. Wonderful. The
first thing I run into is a Ghastly, which is actually kind of
interesting! She repeatedly hypnotized Sophia into sleeping,
which made capturing her surprisingly annoying, but I got her
in the end. Her name was Scoops.

So I guess the tower is called Sprout Tower because all of the
trainers inside use Bellsprouts? Kind of obnoxious, but it
could be worse. Wade called me during this time. He had some
berries he was willing to share with me. Y'know, he's alright.

There were a lot of sages in the tower. At one point, I had
to take on three in a row, and it was the third battle that
did Scoops in. I wish I'd had more time to get attached to
her...

Past those sages was the elder. Not only that, but he was
just finishing up a battle with Crimson! Immediately after,
Crimson used an Escape Rope to leave the tower. It was my
turn.

I lost. All of my Pokemon are dead.

I guess I just don't have what it takes to be a Pokemon
Master.

I think I'll go home and rethink what I want to do with my
life...

Goodnight, diary.

I got a ways but then realized that in order to overwrite my old game I have to delete it from the main menu and can't do it during gameplay. WELP, gonna restart tomorrow.

If you get to a point where you have to progress using an HM, but have no pokemon that can use it due to the Nuzlocke rules, is that game over?

Failure Edit:

WELP, turns out that's not SO much of an issue right now since I have to start over already. Falkner kicked my ass, I forgot how much of a bitch he is without catching that Mareep south of the town. Here's all the data I compiled to make a comic out of later, but I might not now depending on whether I get better results for my next try.

Route 31 - Flying Rat. Level 4 F Pidgey. Jolly. Capable of taking hits. Killed at Level 9 in Violet City Gym against a Spearow.

Does Game Corner pokemon count as "In-Game gift Pokemon"?

If not unlimited (Not that you'd WANT to play the Game Corner for that freaking long), then at least one?
Thanked by:

Hmm, I'm not sure. I don't think so, just to be safe at least.

Also this may have been obvious but no:
1. Breeding
2. PokeWalker
3. Evolving through means not obtainable in the main game (no trading yourself stones for evolution etc). You can still trade to evolve your pokemon that evolve through trading, though
