Pokemon Y Nuzlocke Challenge is a Web Video series from Polygon with host Griffin McElroy that ran from July to December 2016. The series has Griffin trying to beat Pokémon Y with added rules for a Self-Imposed Challenge.First, he must follow the following standard Nuzlocke run Nuzlocke rules:1. He can only catch the first Pokemon he encounters in each area. This counts gift and traded Pokemon. If the Pokemon faints, he doesn’t get a Pokemon for that area. He also uses the duplicate clause, which says that if that first encounter is a Pokemon he’s already caught, the rule doesn’t apply to that encounter and he can try to catch the next new Pokemon he encounters in that same area instead.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })2. If a Pokemon faints, he has to deposit it in the PC and release it.For more of a challenge, Griffin also added several more rules of his own:3. Healing items (like Potions) can’t be used in battle, though held items (like Berries) and healing moves can.4. He has to play in Set mode, meaning he doesn’t get the option to switch out his Pokemon after defeating the enemy trainer’s Pokemon for free (he can use a turn to switch them, but this leaves his team open to attack).5. Each time he defeats a Gym, he has to Wonder Trade a member of his winning team. The duplicate clause also applies here.It can be watched on the Polygon website as well as on YouTube.

Anyone Can Die: Since it’s a Nuzlocke run, all of Griffin’s Pokemon are at risk of being Killed Off for Real if they get even one big nasty hit and faint. Perhaps the biggest victim being badass Ms. Beakman, caught as Griffin’s second Pokemon in episode 1 and dying in episode 17 of the 20-part series.

Anticlimax Boss: Invoked by Griffin when he uses the Master Ball on Yveltal, and then copiously lampshaded as Griffin proclaims he is now its daddy.

Artifact of Death: The Rocky Helmet seems to have turned into this in Episode 6. The two Pokemon who hold it in that episode are Killed Off for Real by some unfortunately strong One Hit Kills, and Griffin voices his worry that it's a Cursed Item. Jean-Ralphio is the next to get it in Episode 7 and survives, breaking the curse.

Ambiguous Ending: The final moment, in which Griffin encounters a Pidgey. Is he flashing back to his first meeting with the fallen Ms. Beakman? Or catching a new Pidgey for a second chance?
