Hi y'all! It's me! @DracoBaltoy II on an alt! The confirmation link email wasn't working, so I confirmed myself on an alt instead. I'll be using this account for this fandom now. (Yes, it's based off of Lancer Deltarune)
BASIC RULES:
I can only catch one Loomian per route
I must name my Loomians so I'm attached to them (even though I already get attached enough 😭)
If a Loomian faints, it's dead and I can't use it anymore
ADDED RULES:
I can only catch one (static) Roaming Loomian
I can't use Rally Ranch
I can't use more than one Roaming at a time
I can't catch the same Loomian twice
MODIFIERS:
If I kill my encounter for an area (by accident), I can get a new one to replace it
I can use my dead Loomians in the Battle Collosseum
I can rally moves
If I find a Gleaming, I can catch it regardless of the route. I just can't use it
If I find a non-static Roaming Loomian, I can catch it, but can't use it until the previous one dies
If I find a Loomian I've caught before, but can evolve into a different form, I'm allowed to catch it, but I can only evolve it into the alternate form(s)
NEW MODIFIER(S):
If I find a corrupt Loomian, it doesn't count as my encounter, as it's out of my control.
I can use the trade resort to obtain a new Loomian. Trade Evolutions don't count for the one use, unless the Loomian I'm receiving wasn't originally mine.

PROGRESS:
I had just defeated Akio, and headed over to the next route. I put RayRay, my Craytal, in the head of the party as the next Threatre was the Sepharite City Threatre, and Naya's metal types were sure to give me a run for my money if I didn't prepare. I also brought a Lantot I caught in Heiwa Village, whom I affectionately named Tottle.
I entered the Rally Ranch route, and battled the first trainer their. The plan was to switch train my new Loomians to get them up to speed with the rest of my team. Things... didn't go well.
I sent out RayRay against the Phancub, intending to switch him out right after. However, I accidentally clicked the fight option by accident. I pleaded that RayRay would survive to the next turn, that the Phancub wouldn't attack, or that RayRay wouls survive. Unfortunately none of that happened. RayRay went down to a single Punch. First blood of the nuzlocke. I'm sorry RayRay. You could've been so great in the future.
Tottle was having none of that. With her powerful Soul Storm attack, she oneshotted BOTH of that trainer's Phancub. I sent out Peckalina to take out the Pyder, and we won. But it was at the cost of RayRay. I solemnly walked back to Heiwa Village, and laid RayRay to rest. We'll see you on the other side buddy.
Forgot to mention earlier, caught a Whispup in the Cemetery! I wasn't intending on using it, and I can't remember it's name (I think it was Spiripup?), but nice! More firepower!
I remember putting someone else on the party to replace RayRay, but for Levvenos' sake I can't remember who. My best guess is that Slugterra was boxed before fighting Akio, and I decided to get them back? Seems most plausible.
Anyways, I caught a Kabunga here. I named her TikiTiki because that's what she reminded me of. Helped some scouts to make repels, and got three from them myself! DiskBash even evolved into a Sedimars! :D
As the rules above stated, I can't use the Rally Ranch, so there was nothing else I could do here. I moved on to the next route. This was actually a pretty good place to get Loomians, as I actually could get TWO encounters here. One from the grass, and another from the Junkyard! Unfortunately, it was nothing too special. Just a Chompactor and a Burroach. Can't remember either of their names 😭 (Though I think Chompactor was named Garbodor?)
I made sure to battle everyone I could here to get levels for future fights. There wasn't any trouble (minus a few near death experiences with Haden's two Goppies), and I moved towards Sepharite City.
Lucy and Lucas were a bit of trouble, but it was nothing I couldn't handle at this point! Tottle even evolved into a Lantorch after the battle! :D
After the tour of Sepharite, it was time to fight Faust. My main plan was to use Loominance, DiskBash, and Tottle to win the fight. I lead with Tottle to deal HUGE damage to the Munchweel with Flare. Things were going well. Next turn I used Fire Slam since it was super effective and... It didn't k.o.. I get Lantorch is a special attacker, but it's attack isn't terrible. "No matter!" I thought. "We can live the next Bash." Ha ha. Yeah they got a crit. Second blood of the entire nuzlocke. This one really hurt. I was looking forward to winning my nuzlocke with Tottle by my side. I had grown so close to her. I even have some funny screenshots that I took with her on my tablet. Just like that though, it's all gone.
With a heavy heart, I sent out DiskBash to finish off the Munchweel. Then she sent out conceredon. This Loomian proved to be problematic. Not only did it have Scapegoats it could set up all it wants, but it also had QUICKSAND, dealing damage to DiskBash for five turns, and preventing me from switching. I had to spam Meds to keep DiskBash on her feet. Having only having Boulder Blast for an Earth move was not very good. I hoped she got Earthquake soon!
Next was Faust's final Loomian. Her Ace, Stratusaur. I sent out Loominance, despite being CRAZY underlevelled, and started Static Shocking. A Cyclone Slam did a lot of damage. Another would've for sure taken me out. Thankfully, all she did was repeatedly use support moves for the restof the battle, and a series of Static Shocks was all it took.
After getting the badge, it was time to go retrieve that missing tablet piece. DiskBash and Loominance easy muscled their way through every Scorb. I even caught one myself! Named 'em Scott.
Finally, we made it into the room where Protogon was kept. I was really scared of this fight, since it caused me a lot of trouble on one of my other accounts, taking out almost my entire team. However, I didn't have Sedimars on that account. Yeah, DiskBash defeated it with Two Boulder Blasts. We got the tablet piece, and headed on out.
Before progressing any further, I decided to do something. I decided to catch Mutagon. A friend had told me where to find the codes for the Vanta's locker, and where to use it. I rode down into the Vanta Corp vault, and solved the puzzle with some difficulty. Before I detail the fight, I just wanna say how touched I was about the lore of this Loomian. I know not a lot of people care for the story of Loomian Legacy, but I do, and after listening the sad lore, I made a promise. I promised that once I catch Mutagon, I'll use to defeat Doctor Vanta's Protogon later in the story.
And so, the battle began. I decided that since I'll only be able to use one roaming at a time, it'd be fair that I can reset the battle until I get a run with zero deaths. I know, I know, it's a little like cheating, but it's also MY nuzlocke, and far as I'm concerned, one roaming won't make the game too much easier (especially with the battles to come).
The plan was to paralyze it with Loominance. If Loominance lives, I switch to DiskBash, my bulkiest Loomian. I then chip it down with chomp, and throw disks until it decides to comply. It took me probably twenty attempts before I finally got a good one. I even considered giving myself a limited amount of attempts. But finally, Mutagon stayed in the disk! I named it Rescue, as I had rescued it from a life eternally underground, and proceeded forward.
And thats all for today! Now obviously I've LONG completed my Nuzlocke at this point, so you probably won't have to wait too long for the rest. Enjoy!
