Will be co-writing this with Jimera0 because we are both experienced in these challenges

Essentially the Orange Islands have three major challenges that we play around with when we play through the games in order to increase the difficulty and to broaden our team selections. This article will shine light on these challenges (hopefully bring more attention to them for people looking to enjoy a little more than what GameFreak offers them) and provide a guideline on how to be successful when playing and creating challenges.

Nuzlocke - Can only catch the first Pokemon on each route
If a Pokemon dies it cannot be used again
Various other challenges can be applied (restrictions on healing, etc)

Scramble - Pokemon are given restrictions by other forum members
Play with the team of 6 given to you and follow the challenging/funny rules

- This will also include information on giving good and creative challenges :)

Gauntlet - Most challenging
Recieve challenges that affect the whole game and challenges that pertain to one section
Stacked challenges get difficult quickly

- Announcement on how to give challenges and how to make the run possible (can be tough if you're new and haven't played one before)

Possibly some examples of successful Let's Plays of these challenges and examples of good challenges


This will have lots of information, especially with the experience of Jimera0 and I

Nuzlocke is a fairly well-known play mode by now, but the other two challenges could use an in-depth description. I'm for this.
