Nuzlocke Rules For Egg Hatching?

Apr. 9, 2017

So since games like ORAS and XY have the Poke DayCare in the middle or the beginning of the game, does it count as my first encounter if I hatch an egg on a new route? And if I hatch an egg on an old route, does it count against the rules?

This is entirely up to you. You can include your own rule for hatching eggs such as the ones you’ve listed, or use hatching as the only way to obtain new Pokemon.

For example, you could include/make these rules:

These are just a few ideas of hatching rules for a nuzlocke. The true purpose of a Nuzlocke challenge is to provide a new and difficult challenge for the player. Therefore any rules you decide to follow can be used to vary the difficulty of that challenge (such as the acquiring new Pokemon through gifts/hatching only). It is up to you as the nuclocker to select which rules you follow and abide by those rules throughout the game.
