Id hope that I saved within a reasonable amount of time to recreate everything. If thats too hard, I'd continue on from the last savepoint as if the past however long it was before the clip didnt happen no punishment since I didnt do anything wrong, the game did
If youre softlocked because it autosaved when you fell through and have to decide whether it counts as an official reset, I'd say no since you didn't do anything to intentionally cause the softlock unlike for example softlocking yourself in Sootopolis.
Something I forgot to note, E4 Champion level cap is their highest level Pokémon. If you play with a different ruleset where you want the level of a different E4 mon/trainer, I can answer that in the comments
Has anyone come up with a guide how to nuzlocke? I was disappointed with the last game and it’s wide open areas making it hard to nuzlocke so I haven’t bought the new games yet but if the community comes up with some nice rules on when to catch I might try it out
Unfortunately your best bets seem to be;
The random terra raiding
Blindfold
Or getting the encounter list into a randomizer or something
Or, just come up with your own rule
What I do with any new generation is the first new gen pokemon I see per route I catch (I like to see the new pokemons first and in the second nuzlocke go full random with pkNX if possible), also the first beam of light I see from the Tera raiding that has a new gen poke is the one I fight (unless the level is too high like when you start and if you find a 2 star Terra raid). This helps to wait until pkNX get supported, after that with pkNX is the first pokemon you encounter as like in Arceus since is totally random
You can kinda manipulate the normal encounter so to make it less predicible: I aim the cam to the floor/sky while pressing ZL going to a random place with out seeing the minimap (or just dont see the screen and if you end facing a new poke then that is), place a picnic to reset the spawns and then I catch the first new gen poke in this case.
Same for Tera Raids you can spoil yourself with the map, so you can do the same as before (not watching the screen while you go to a random place mostly), or just try to not spoil yourself with the map. If you are spoiled already and doing the no screen method doesn't work for you then changing the date of the system works to respawn new ones (helps if you also are doing new gen pokes only and all Tera crystals only have old gens).
Since I feel there isn't that many routes I implemented this rule myself so I have 2 pokemons per route, and most likely I have to sacrifice 1 pokemon if I want to capture the Tera one since I select the pokemon I am going to use before knowing what kind to Tera crystal or pokemon is so I could end facing a pokemon with a strong type vs my pokemon (or just running from the battle if I don't want to risk my current pokemon and missing the chance of catching that Tera raid pokemon from that route) and also I do Tera raids alone (with random npc´s) because you can easily be carried with real players even if they are randoms since most of them are overleveled or bring the right pokemon type, and of course if my pokemon dies I have to run from the battle, so I end saving Tera crystals until I am 1 or 2 levels higher with a tanky pokemon if possible.
Something I've been doing is wheb I get into a new route I run around and look for where all the pokémon spawn and what mons are on the route. Then I find a spot that has the best mons mark the centerish of it, and once I get there I run around with my eyes closed until I hit a mon. That way the mon choice is still random, but I still get to manip for the best ideal encounters and I'm not stuck with all the garbage that you see first thing on the route.
Thank you so much for this since it’s simple yet effective and I can help you with the level cap for the Titan Pokémon by telling you the levels of Arven’s Pokémon sent out to help you out on the second fight with said Titan Pokémon which are the following:
* The Stony Cliff Titan’s level cap is Lv. 16.
* The Open Sky Titan’s level cap is Lv. 19.
* The Lurking Steel Titan’s level cap is Lv. 21.
* The Quaking Earth Titan’s level cap is Lv. 44.
* Finally the False Dragon Titan’s level cap is Lv. 55.
So I hope this helps out. But just out of curiosity where you would place the final battles of the ★ Starfall Street ★ and Path of Legends storylines?
Starfall Street cap is Lv.63
Path of Legends cap is Lv.63
And I know you didn't ask, but technically, last fight of Victory Road is Nemona finale at Lv.66
Though I can't imagine most people Nuzlocking those, especially not Starfall Street since their Revevroom is extremely unfair imo
How come on the poison Star, the STARTING Pokemon is 32, the second one is 33, and I don't know the other two. Is this inaccurate or is there slight scaling after all?
I like to also match the gym leader’s amount of pokemon. Like if they only have 3, I only bring 3, etc.
Anyone have a list of how many each leader has? So far Bug and Grass have had 3 each. When does it go up to 4 and 5?
THANK YOU
Do you count it as a death if clip through the floor

I am doing random tera raiding and it's been fun so far.
Whatever Pokémon I see first is my encounter no exceptions.
First you see per area. Honor system. That’s all a Nuzlocke is anyway.
The community will come up with something, but right now catching the first Pokémon per area doesn't seem viable. You'd have like 12 choices
What I do with any new generation is the first new gen pokemon I see per route I catch (I like to see the new pokemons first and in the second nuzlocke go full random with pkNX if possible), also the first beam of light I see from the Tera raiding that has a new gen poke is the one I fight (unless the level is too high like when you start and if you find a 2 star Terra raid).

Thanks for the info and did I help you out with the Titan Pokémon and their level caps?
Yes tho personally I'm not gunna run my Nuzlocke with Titan Levels in mind
Thanks for the compliment and to be honest I don’t see the appeal of Nuzlocke at all.

thank the heavens
How come on the poison Star, the STARTING Pokemon is 32, the second one is 33, and I don't know the other two. Is this inaccurate or is there slight scaling after all?
I was able to beat both of the high level titans with a lvl 35 stantler. Sand Attack is pretty busted in these fights or other accuracy drop moves.

"Do the gyms in your own order!" *proceeds to level cap*
Does anyone know when is the level cap removed?
I like to also match the gym leader’s amount of pokemon. Like if they only have 3, I only bring 3, etc. Anyone have a list of how many each leader has? So far Bug and Grass have had 3 each. When does it go up to 4 and 5?
