While I am doing solo shedinja. I was wondering, there are several variants in the game. if you where to pick one, which one would you do?

just a small list of all the variants that i have seen or thought up of. I will add a difficulty level

=================================================================================
"god" like difficulty:
Solo Magikarp

"impossible" difficulty:
solo shedinja
solo shuckle
solo smeargle
Low level
Living off the land (no shops or pokemon centers)

"hard" difficulty
solo ditto
Nuzlocke
solo pokemon with no evolutions
no items (except key items and hm's)
No pokemon centers
Metronome Only run

"normal" difficulty
No pokemarts
solo pokemon (any)
no evolutions

"easy" difficulty
2 man army (any 2 pokemon)
damaging moves only
No TMs (excludes HMs)
No held items

"pussy" difficulty
3-man army (any 3 pokemon)
all for one(all pokemon are one type)
no saves
no blackouts
no healing items
=================================================================================
If you have any ideas for new ones or you believe that a challenge should be moved up or down in difficulty. feel free to comment.

I would go with "hard difficulty"

impossible would be fun, but I think dito should go up to impossible, I mean the sheer amount of time it would take... Shocked

Old Topic, I know, but damn, I might try live off the land or solo shedinja

The last time i attempted a Nuzlocke run, i spent too much time levelling up until the first gym wasn't even a challenge. Deciding against airing so much on the side of caution from then on, i went in to Bugsy's gym perhaps expecting one of my four battle-Pokemon to be killed.. and i lost the game.
Perhaps shameful, though i do know that i would have been well able to tackle the game Nuzlocke if i had been more cautious; i just chose against it. So at least i have that.

I'd love to try a run with a Shedinja and Ditto. Not the hardest, considering the two Pokemon, but also could still be fun.

I was thinking on trying out a run with no damaging moves, but that would literally be a stallfest. I do recall someone doing pokemon silver but locking all EXP to 0 making you rely on the highest leveled pokemon you can find, of course this will probably make whitney fuck you over but dammit, it's something different.

how about you just play the damn game normally and waste your life on something more interesting?

Obviously, he finds playing the game with variant runs to be interesting.

Don't like my opinion? fuck off. I'll enjoy playing what I want, when I want.

Now, Gary. There's no call for being an overwhelming shitlord.

I know you seem to think that annoying people is somehow a better way to spend your time than playing a game you enjoy, but please, take it outside the forum your head admin is trying to breathe life back in to.

Alternatively, in terms you'd be more likely to understand;
