вЂ“ Bonus points (-9): The 20-item limit in the bag and the clunky PC will have you yearning for the newer games.ДЇInal thoughts: Look, I love these games. On the other hand, the lack of challenge does mitigate some of the struggles in training, as getting to the same level as your opponents in the Elite Four isnвЂ™t as necessary as it will be in later games. In addition to this there are some very abusable glitches that can make the experience much easier than it would be. Pretty much no opponents will have any coverage moves to speak of, making surprise deaths at the hands of an opponentвЂ™s super-effective move much less common.

The opposing trainersвЂ™ movesets are absolutely laughable, and the AI is, um, less than amazing (For one example, Blaine has a 25% chance of using a Super Potion even when his pokГ©mon is at full health). вЂ“ Challenge (4/30 points): Not much to speak of here. ThereвЂ™s a fairly limited pool of truly viable options here, so youвЂ™ll end up using similar teams each time through. And the endgame is heavy on water types, most of which are Tentacool. A few types are outright useless (Uh, guys, you seem to have forgotten to make any useful Bug moves). вЂ“ PokГ©dex (10/30 points): ItвЂ™s the original 151! Unfortunately, their distribution is somewhat less than optimal-if youвЂ™re playing with dupes clause, youвЂ™re going to end up skipping quite a few routes once you have Pidgey/Rattata/Bellsprout or Oddish already caught. The jump between the 8th gym and the Elite Four is a bigger deal, though-thereвЂ™s a good chance you go in underleveled. вЂ“ Level curve (8/15 points): ThereвЂ™s a big jump between gyms 4 and 5, but you can still end up prepared by going through both routes to Fuchsia and going through Silph Co. And thereвЂ™s nothing to help the process along either-thereвЂ™s no lucky egg and the Exp. вЂ“ Training (0/15 points): Hope you like fighting wild pokemon! Because after youвЂ™ve beaten all the trainers thatвЂ™s literally your only option. ItвЂ™s still not an exact science, but hopefully readers will agree with my conclusions on which games perform well or poorly in these categories. I did the math on all five of these categories, and have determined the rankings from said math. In addition, a small amount of bonus points will be awarded for anything that doesnвЂ™t fit into these categories but should be notedвЂ“mostly quality of life features that improve the playability of the game. This doesnвЂ™t necessarily mean that the hardest games get the most points, but more points should be given to the games that make you think and strategize, and put tough obstacles in your path that require more thinking than simply вЂњclick super effective attack, win.вЂќ вЂ“ Challenge вЂ“ We are in this for the challenge, after all. вЂ“ Pokedex вЂ“ Is there a plethora of options available for your team, or will you be running through the game with pretty similar teams each time?

Since the level curve and training are sort of two halves of the same concept, they combine to be worth as many points as the other two categories. The best games have a good, balanced feel to them, where youвЂ™re adequately prepared for the next boss just by playing through the game normally. вЂ“ Level curve вЂ“ This kind of goes hand in hand with the first category. A bit of grinding is fine, but too much, or making it too difficult to actually do, hurts the gameвЂ™s viability as a fun Nuzlocke experience. ItвЂ™s a way to have more fun with the game, and tedious grinding for experience is, um, less than fun.

вЂ“ Opportunities for training/rematches вЂ“ The Nuzlocke is supposed to be a challenge, not a chore. Instead, for this exercise IвЂ™ve narrowed it down to four major components of a good Nuzlocke: WeвЂ™re not going to get into things like the region, the design of the PokГ©mon, or the stories (besides, does anyone play PokГ©mon for the story?). So letвЂ™s go through the aspects that make a game a good Nuzlocking experience. That means we should be able to arrive at a good answer to that question at least.

On the other hand, the process of figuring out which game in the series is best to Nuzlocke is more specific and less reliant on subjective assessments.

There are too many differing opinions on PokГ©mon design, region, gameplay mechanics and visuals, and with nostalgia playing a major role, thereвЂ™s no one right answer. The only real consensus out there on the best PokГ©mon game is that there is no best PokГ©mon game.
