Renegate Platinum HC Nuzlocke Hot Sauce Rules

This is a dumb as hell idea. I'm doing it anyways.

Pokémon Renegade Platinum HC Nuzlocke, but with Hot Sauce

Standard Nuzlocke rules: (Taken from a previous HC Nuzlocke of Ren Plat)

1. Any Pokémon that faints is considered dead, and must be put in the Pokémon Storage System permanently.

2. The player may only catch the first Pokémon encountered in each area, and none else. If the first Pokémon encountered faints or flees, there are no second chances. If there's a static encounter in the area, the player is allowed to capture them despite already capturing a Pokémon in that area. If your partner in a route kills your encounters, then you do not get a second chance.

3. Shiny Clause is active.

4. Level limit will be the highest in the gym.
Level limits:
Roark: Level 16
Gardenia: Level 26
Fantina: Level 33
Maylene: Level 39
Wake: Level 44
Celestic Town Cyrus: Level 46
Byron: Level 53
Candice: Level 56
Distortion World Cyrus: Level 60
Volkner: Level 62
Pre-E4 Barry Fight: Level 71
Elite Four has an average of 73.5, but I am going to make the level limit of the highest in the elite four, aka level 75 will be my level limit going into the elite four. If I level past that during the Elite Four, it is perfectly fine

5. Nickname all Pokémon

6. If you wipe, reset :)

7. Gift Pokémon are allowed, but if I receive more than one at any specific moment, I must pick one of however many I receive. An example is the gift starter Pokémon in the first few Pokémon centers. I can only pick ONE of the starters. I am allowed to look at abilities and stats before choosing

8. Starter Pokémon is chosen based on what I feel is good enough for the game

9. No Items allowed in battle

10. Do not start Nuzlocke until you receive pokeballs

11. Dupes and Species clause are turned on, but I can turn them off for an encounter if I wish to.

12. No Legendaries allowed :)



Now the twist onto the above rules:
First, there are 12 levels, ranging from extremely mild to extremely spicy. This level will be on display so that I remember what level I am at.

1. Every time I beat a gym leader, Elite Four, Important Rival fight, or Evil Team important fight (will be listed out below), I will eat a small amount of the hot sauce I'm currently at.
Important rival/Evil team battles:
Barry fight in Jubilife
Dawn Rival fight before Mt. Coronet
Dawn Rival fight on Route 210
Barry fight in Hearthome
Barry fight in Pastoria
Barry fight in Canalave
Barry fight in the Pokemon League
Valley Windworks Mars Fight
Eterna Building Jupiter Fight
Pokemon Mansion Saturn Fight
Galactic HQ Saturn Fight
Spear Pillar Double Battle (Mars and Jupiter)
Celestic Town Cyrus Fight
Galactic HQ Cyrus Fight
Distortion World Cyrus Fight (only counting these battles as one, i'm not fucking myself over with doing two here)


2. If any Pokémon dies, I eat a small amount of the hot sauce I'm currently at.

3. If I lose more than one Pokémon in a single fight, I increase the level of hot sauce I am at. THIS STACKS TO THE NEXT STREAM I DO, NOT JUST A ONE DAY THING.

4. If I wipe or have to reset the whole thing, I increase the hot sauce level and eat a sample of that new level.

5. IF I ENCOUNTER A SHINY POKEMON, I MOVE THE HOT SAUCE LEVEL DOWN ONE LEVEL BECAUSE IT'S AWESOME TO FIND SHINIES
