And, Goshi:
You only prove my point! Yes, crobat has a higher average base stat. However, I don't care about averages. I'm concerned with HP, defence, spec. defence and maybe special attack, seeing as swalot is a poisoner. For those purposes, swalot is still superior.
In any case, I'm not doing a crobat. The only useful move I can think of that crobat would learn is bite, maybe crunch, as something to deploy against psychics. But if I wanted to do that, I'd put in the hard yards with Metroid and train her up to Mightyena.

Crobat doesn't learn Crunch, and if he could, he wouldn't use it anyway, since Dark type attacks are consider Special Attacks in Emerald. Which is one of the reasons Mightyena isn't really that good >_>

Against Psychic types, Crobat would use Shadow Ball. As for other damaging moves, Crobat can also use Sludge Bomb and Aerial Ace. And I suppose Hidden Power... though actually getting it to be a desirable type (Like Rock) is a big hassle.

At any rate, notice the 3 point different in Defense and SpDefense? That's right Swalot can take hits just as well as Crobat. Some tank he is Specky

This thread has been quite entertaining (and a bit disturbing), it even inspired me to attempt my own Nuzlocke Run on Ruby.  I'm currently training for the Elite Four.

In case you're curious, here's my team:

Dusclops (needed something for beating the psychic gym)
Grumpig (I really wanted an Abra...)
Crobat (that's right, Crobat)
Wailord (decent water-type plus high HP)
Vileplume (got to have a grass-type)
Blaziken ('nuff said)

And a list of those I've lost:

Electrike (sacrificed during battle with Brawly to save Combusken)
Shroomish (killed by May's Marshtomp at Route 110, stupid Bide...)
Illumise (sacrificed during battle with Wattson to save Combusken)
Zangoose (ran into a ninja boy.  he used Koffing.  BOOM...)
Loudred (killed in the desert by a Sandshrew's critical hit)
Vibrava (ran into an Electrode trap in Magma's hideout, it went BOOM...)
Tentacruel (killed in battle with the psychic twins, but went down fighting)
Manectric (killed in battle with Wallace, but went down fighting)

Don't ask for images, I kinda forgot to do that.  I'm also going to do a FireRed/LeafGreen Nuzlocke Run once I finish with Ruby.

Anyways, how much longer until the next update Silvertie?

Quite entertaining. Been playing Pokemon on my phone lately to pass the time in school.

Now.

Spoiler for Part Eight:

More tomorrow night, probably.

Quite a close call you had there, almost losing Combusken....I'm curious, would you have abandoned the challenge had Combusken died?

I would have persisted, subbing in Ramirez or Staples in his place.
To the bitter end, I say.

That's the spirit!

See this where most Nuzlockers end up doing wrong. If they have a water type out why not switch into something more desirable like say a Pikachu or Electrike? Geez, they always do silly things like this Dotdotdot

My entire team is now at Lv. 50 :)

Time to challenge the Elite Four :D

-The Results-

Round 1: Blaziken destroys Sidney's team with ease :)

Round 2: Dusclops, Crobat and Wailord defeat Pheobe's team.  No casulties so far.

Round 3: Blaziken, Vileplume and Grumpig (mostly Grumpig) defeat Glacia's team.  No casulties so far, but the dragons are up next...

Round 4: Wailord (Ice Beam For the win) and Dusclops defeat Drake's team.  No casulties to report, though Dusclops nearly died a few times (he ended the battle with 9 HP).  The Final Battle Awaits!

-The Final Battle

The battle starts off good.  Grumpig Shock Waves Skarmory to death.  Dusclops and Wailord team up to destroy Cradily.  Blaziken's Brick Break easily destroys Aggron.

Then Metagross showed up.

One quick Blaze Kick is all I needed to destroy that monster, and with 90% accuracy, I figured the odds were in my favor.

I WAS WRONG

Blaze Kick missed, and Metagross's Earthquake (with critical hit) killed Blaziken.

Metagross then proceeded to slaughter my ENTIRE TEAM.

My challenge has ended.......in failure.......
