harvestmoon December 9, 2021 Share December 9, 2021 (edited) Hello! This is Betty of @ruleofthumb. So for a while I've been sharing stuff that interests me on Tumblr, but today my mate Consig and I were playing a Pokémon Nuzlocke and he decided he wanted to share! But it wouldn't really fit on my Tumblr so I thought we could create a lounge thread for us to share stuff and chat with others. Maybe we'll create an art thread too... So a Nuzlocke is a type of way of playing Pokémon where Pokémon can die and you can catch a limited amount of Pokémon. There's a variant called a "Wedlocke" where Pokémon are partnered up and can only switch with their partners, limiting what Pokémon you can use in battle. We decided to create a Nuzlocke variant based on the Wedlocke variant. We'll call it a "Tulpalocke" but you can call it a "Pluralocke" or whatever fits you. Instead of party members being tied together are romantic partners, they are tied together as host and tulpa. If one dies, the other dies (as they share the same party), and the fronter must always be switched in first. The fronter is the host by default but one tulpa can be made fronter after each gym battle (NOTE: this is terrible for grinding so we dropped it immediately). We took inspiration from this Reddit post. Consig failed his first attempt (I possess the body but he tells me what to do). This is where he is in the second attempt so far: Hosts are on the left and tulpas are on the right next to their hosts. Consig's Turtwig in both runs has had the same personality except the first one was "a little quick tempered" and this one is just "quick tempered". Maybe he got angrier from dying, lol. Feel free to ask us any questions about whatever, as this is a Lounge thread! Hope you all have a great day! Edited December 15, 2021 by harvestmoon Meaningful words, I'm here!

harvestmoon December 9, 2021 Author Share December 9, 2021 (edited) Host: Sapling the Turtwig (M) Naughty. Quick tempered. Tulpa: Bea the Bidoof (F) Calm. Somewhat stubborn. Host: Skye the Shinx (M) Naive. A little quick tempered. Tulpa: Windy the Magikarp (F) Gentle. A little quick tempered. Host: Raven the Starly (F) Gentle. Alert to sounds. Tulpa: Boris the Psyduck (M) Calm. Often dozes off. We got a full party now! Gonna challenge the first Gym Leader once they're all leveled up. I feel so awake right now. Stone has been feeling sleeping because he's trying a polyphasic schedule. Maybe I should be switched in more often. Edited December 15, 2021 by harvestmoon Meaningful words, I'm here!

harvestmoon December 14, 2021 Author Share December 14, 2021 (edited) My old pfp was a screenshot of a fox in the fox tower Cloud made me for Christmas last year. I was thinking about that old pfp (I got sentimental and almost cried kek). I realized I never shared our Christmas Minecraft world! We’re also working on a (very late) Halloween expansion. Night Stone’s house - by me My fox tower - by Cloud Baby fox in cauldron Foxes sleeping by fox door The fox wants berries At the top of the tower My greenhouse for Cloud (it still has her old, transitional name) Secret storage under the greenhouse Stone’s room This fills me with so much nostalgia. I’ll make a post about our Halloween expansion once it’s finished! Edited December 14, 2021 by harvestmoon Meaningful words, I'm here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboSimmie December 14, 2021 Share December 14, 2021 I love your house, it's so cozy! 💚 Those foxes are cute. 🥰 I think my favorite bit is the greenhouse. Cloud did a good job with it! This kinda makes me want to play the game for real instead of just designing in creative mode with Phil. Tulpa Wife Extraordinaire! 💚 - 💍 11.28.21 🤰 - Baby Boy Tulpa expected on April 7, 2023 👶💚 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvestmoon December 14, 2021 Author Share December 14, 2021 Thank you! And you totally should! Also I made the greenhouse for Cloud so the credit goes to me 😌 Meaningful words, I'm here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murk December 15, 2021 Share December 15, 2021 I like your ruleset for your Nuzlocke! It sounds like a way to really limit your resources. My host said he might be interested in trying a ruleset like that after he finishes Shining Pearl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My host said he might be interested in trying a ruleset like that after he finishes Shining Pearl. Thank you! We must admit that we dropped the fronting bit because it was bad for grinding (and also Stone said that it limited strategy which would make things less fun, and I can see that). So now it's basically a Wedlocke with higher stakes. We're going to challenge the first gym leader soon! If your host decides to try it, please tell me about it! Meaningful words, I'm here!

harvestmoon July 5 Author Share July 5 We were not prepared for Roark 😭 Luckily Skye saved the day. Skye and Windy live on! We're also going to change the rules so we can store Pokemon in the PC. Meaningful words, I'm here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
