In case the title wasn't enough information, this thread is about different playstyles for Pokemon games (i.e. self-imposed rules to make the game more difficult or interesting).
The most famous of all playstyles is the Nuzlocke. The rules state that you may only catch the first Pokemon in an area and must release anything that gets KOd. This ruleset, while themost popular, is not the only way to play. Many variations are added in to make the game more interesting (i.e. Wonder Trades or hatching everything from an Egg).
What other playstyles have you heard of? Which ones do you like, which ones strike you as silly, but above all else, how do they work?
