The real retarded thing I did though, was resetting a save in which I had obtained a legit Diancie from Mystery Gift. I'm glad I got one from the code-based event, safe in my bank, but still I did a retarded thing. Well, I can't really recover it, so it's better to get over it, huh...? Sigh.
I chose the name Himika because I just happen to like the name, and it shares some letters with 'mikan'.
And so here we are, on the truck, among furniture and plushies, speaking to the local professor through my Pokénav Plus. His name is Birch, and he's a family friend. The main character comes from Johto (nice continuity nod from gen 2), her father is going to be Petalburg city's Gym Leader (normal type), while her mother is a sweet nobody's housewife. In the span of two minutes I meet my "rival #1", Brandon, a child the same age as the mc, son of Birch.
I was kinda disappointed by the age of the mcs: it's just 12, damn it! They are also portrayed as very childish in appearance. I would have preferred if they were like XY's mcs, a bit older and... customizable (SIGH), while still being moe, but that's what we got and there's no point in complaining I guess. May is a real cutie, but I don't really like Brandon for some reason.
Anyways, I saved Birch from the Poochyena (...seriously?), and chose a Torchic I named Gurren. It's male, and Sassy... SASSY? Omg, could you get a worse nature? I played through until the first rival battle and wasted one potion on Gurren, but no problem otherwise. I saved when I got the dex, and I'll resume from there. The true Nuzlocke has just started!

I took the layout from a youtube streamer. It was up for free, so I guess it's alright. I couldn't be bothered to make custom graphics (LAZY ASS).
Anyways, here are the rules I'll follow:
1) Pokémon that faint are dead. They'll go to a box called "Hell" (kek).
2) Only the first Pokémon of each route can be caught; be it by Surf, DexNav, fishing, normal random encounter, Rock Smash or whatever.
3) Shiny Pokemon are exempt from rule 2, man.
4) All Pokemon captured must have a nickname.
5) Legendary Pokemon may be captured. You may not use Legendary Pokemon in your run, unless its capture is plot relevant.6) Non-Legendary interactable Pokemon are not considered encounters. Gift Pokemon and Gift eggs are legal to use. Gift Fossils are legal, as are Fossils found in the desert or caves.
7) Different levels of caves and dungeons do NOT count as new Routes.
8) Diving Spots may be considered a different Route from the Surfing area above. However, you may not use more than one Diving Spot on each Route.
9) Bagon/Snorunt: The secluded areas these Pokemon are found in may be considered different Routes from the rest of the cavern. However, you may only capture this species of Pokemon if it is the first Pokemon you find in that secluded area.
10) The desert is considered a different Route from Route 111, and may be used to obtain one addition Pokemon.
11) The Safari Zone may be used to capture ONE additional Pokemon, so choose your area wisely. Pokemon that appear outside the Safari Zone may be skipped until you find something rarer. (Oddish and Gloom for example)
12) If you white/black out, it's game over.
