    Given how passionate Alpha was about his legendary World Of Light nuzlocke, the fact that he never actually did a Pokemon nuzlocke up until this point is really surprising.

    This might legitimately be one of the best scripts you've ever written. There are so many perfect turns of phrase, and on rewatch I can really appreciate how good the callbacks/foreshadowing are. Also the art is the perfect compliment. Overall, this is just extremely good shit.

      So Dragon Ball? List of dumb decisions:

      2. Vegeta tries to kill his own son just so he can fight Cell at full power
      3. Gohan almost lets the Earth blow up just so he can make Cell suffer
      4. Vegeta let Majin Buu be revived just so he could try to get revenge on Goku (Goku was stronger than him anyways)
      5. Goku fully heals Moro and then politely asks Moro to go back to Jail (LOL Moro almost destroyed the galaxy as a result)

      I mean, he probably could've used dig, it's physical in that gen, unlike bite or flamethrower (dark and fire type moves were both special types pre-Physical/Special split), and alakazam has a very low physical defensive stat being 45, but what he did was better for content. Not saying I completely disagree with his choice, but it's fun to think of the possibilities.

    "I thought it had Sturdy!" The problem with that logic is that in Gens 3 and 4, Sturdy literally only protected against moves like Sheer Cold, which *guarantee* death when they hit regardless of stats or type matchups (except for very specific types depending on the move). It didn't gain its Focus Sash effect until Gen 5, so even if "Mewtwo" did have Sturdy, it wouldn't have protected it from a Super Effective Ice Punch.

      It's fitting, because Sabrina is one of the hardest NPC's in the game.

She's a known nuzlocke ender, even though most people fall to Misty and Gary.
