If you aim for defeat, you shall lose. If you even dare to believe that you are a winner, you are a winner! | ||

Volt White has a way of making you feel overly confident, then smashing you to pieces when you least expect it. The line between confidence and foolishness is very thin. I don't usually make conservative estimates, but I think it's warranted here. | ||

Coconut has been suggested so why not Cocomutt? Starly - Vince The highest flying Raptor in Raptors history. Staraptor is incredible in normal playthroughs, perhaps the single best pokemon in history. You get it early, it has a really good movepool, and it has really good Attack and decent speed. But isn't it really risky in Nuzlocke? CC lowers defense leaving you very vulnerable if CC doesn't OHKO, and Brave Bird has that nasty recoil. It's not even very sturdy in the first place. Sweet pokemon, but I'd hate to get it in a Nuzlocke | ||

Sweet pokemon, but I'd hate to get it in a Nuzlocke Staraptor is relatively fragile, yes, particularly if he gets Reckless as an ability. But if he gets Intimidate as an ability, it becomes somewhat easier to switch in, and Brave Bird/Close Combat are powerful enough that if Staraptor is faster, he can usually sweep without taking a hit. He also gets U-turn, making him a fantastic lead; switch in, Intimidate, and U-turn if Staraptor can't do much to the enemy. You get a counter in almost for free on a weakened attack. Again, he's definitely a glass cannon, and a Reckless Staraptor is very risky, but he's ridiculously good if you play your cards right. | ||

Volt White isn't that hard if you pick the right team and abuse OP strats such as Technician Breloom with Swords Dance/Mach Punch or Shell Smash Gorebyss under Drizzle, but of course Archas isn't doing that because this is a Nuzlocke | ||
