Well, I encountered a list of new names for the Pokémon you can encounter in the Unova region, and here they are as followed, along with their Japanese names. Note, most of the romanizations come from Bulbapedia's listing of Pokémon obtained in the Unova dex. If you don't see one with a slash (/) next to their name, that means they retained their Japanese name. One more thing, this list doesn't give out the names for the 3 Event mons of Gen V, Keldeo, Meloetta, and Genesect, so they weren't included.

While this list is speculative at best, there have been quite a few names on this list that have been confirmed recently, like Sewaddle, Excadrill, Alomomola, Deerling, Basuclin, and Watchog, getting new names and Swanna retaining it's Japanese names. With this mind, I am having more stock in that this leaked list might be true. I'm keeping tabs on them on a wordpad document, because I feel like it, and I find it better so that way I can have a personal list on hand so that way I can see what people are talking about on other message boards like Bulbagarden, since most Pokémon fansites do have a liking for calling Pokémon after their Japanese names, while some prefer the English. Myself, I prefer to use English names when possible, but I'll keep that as a topic for another post. With that said, I'll be keeping tabs when new names are announced, and up until either someone leaks the ROMs, or I get the game.

See ya next time.

Nuzlocke Challenge has begun!

I'm finally going through with my plan to do a Nuzlocke run in LeafGreen. As for my self imposed rules, especially since Nuzlocke doesn't have definitive rules, this is what I'll be doing for my run:

-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. However, I am ammending the rule so I don't end up with duplicates. Say I encounter a Rattata on Route 1, catch it, and encounter one again on Route 2. I will be under no obligation to catch that.

-Any Pokémon that faints is considered dead, and will be put in the Graveyard Box. I don't feel like releasing them, and them in a box makes for a great reminder for me saying that "Oh hey, I did capture on Route 4"

- I am nicknaming all my mons so they're not just some nameless mooks.

- I will only use the trading feature to evolve any the mons that require trading to evolve. Since I am doing Kanto for this one, that means I will only use it for Graveler, Machoke, Kadabra, or Haunter, provided I catch and decide to raise one on my team that is.

-A black out/white is a "game over," even if there are Pokémon left in the PC.

- I will log most of my progress on this board, though I will keep a back up of it elsewhere.

Right now, my journey starts with a Squirtle I named Daxdiv, the trainer is obviously named David, with the rival trainer being named Dhana, after a friend of mine from High School. I encountered a Rattata on Route 1, since I didn't catch it, Route 1 is meaningless to me except for grinding, even though I fought it near the point where you don't have any Pokéballs.

After delivering the Parcel to Prof. Oak, getting my Pokedex, and getting my 5 complimentary Pokéballs, it was about time to get Daxdiv, Level 8, some teammates. My first mission was to go to Route 22, the first Pokemon I encountered was a Rattata Level 3. Caught it and named it Joey, who knows, maybe it will top percentage like a certain trainer's Rattata in Johto. ;) Then I went to Route 2 and caught me a Pidgey, whom I named Squit, after one of the characters from GoodFeathers segments in Animaniacs. After grinding and hoping that none of my team dies, I decided to fight Dhana on Route 22. Squit was able to take down both is Pidgey and Bulbasaur with relative ease. After fighting Dhana, I decided it was about time to go into the Viridian Forest, but first I stocked up on some Potions, and some Antidotes. As for the first creature I encountered, it was a Caterpie, Female, Level 4. Caught it like the rest and named it Wormy.

After trekking through the Viridian Forests and killing various Caterpies, Weedles, and one Pikachu (Why couldn't I encountered that first.) I was able to make it to Pewter City without any casualities, and oh yeah, Wormy evolved into a Metapod. I healed up at the Pokemon Center, and decided to go for my first badge. Daxdiv took the front lines and fought against the trainer with the Geodude and Sandshrew, thanks to that fight, he was able to learn Water Gun, which he used to OHKO Geodude and Onix, also Daxdiv activating Torrent might have been a bit of an overkill. With that, I have one badge and seven more to go before the league. How long will my team survive? Tune in to find out.
