READ SEVERANCE HERE
----------------------------------------------------------------

So hilariously I found these rules on a weird forum filled with meh challenges on them (some way too hard and some overly simple) because apparently I wanted to check out exactly what kinds of variants were there and decided to go digging as I had just learned about nuzlocke variants. Thats how I found I found this little gem on like page 3 of a random forum.

Either way, I thought it was a cool challenge and pretty much shaped Severance to what it was. It was pretty cool to find this little set rather than use the typical stuff, and while challenging at times it was pretty fun. (Gosh dang it though it may be think really hard about team composition.)

Viruslocke Rules
1. One pokemon per area (deupse clause with a 3 attempt mark and a shiny clause permitted)
2. If a Pokemon faints, then it's dead
3. Nickname all pokemon
4. PC is not allowed, which limits it to only your active party as available pokemon. Any pokemon in the PC is considered dead.
5. If you willingly place a team member in your PC, you cannot use it anymore, it is also dead. The only exception is if you have to get a gift pokemon to progress the story, you may swap out a pokemon out in order to do this, but if you choose to use the gift pokemon then it is dead. Pokemon that have pokerus or shiny CAN be put in the PC without dying though.
6. Egg pokemon are banned, due to the fact its mainly a dead weight until you get it high enough level.
7. TMs and EXP shares are banned from this challenge, as they are both computers. HMs are allowed since you need them to progress through the story.
8. Steel and Electric type pokemon are banned, adding one to your party will effectively kill your entire team, meaning you'd be played a monotype challenge.
9. As per monotype rules, if you add a mix of electric or steel, the same with will occur as it does in Rule 9, unless it is a electric/steel typing. (As per monotype, you need to have one of the typings only and it can be primary or secondary)
10. Legendary pokemon are banned
11. Traded/gift pokemon are not allowed
12. No items are allowed to be used in battle.

ROM Settings
- Randomized Starters (3 stage only)
- Randomize Trainers and Wild Pokemon (But not overworld)
- Set pokemon to that of equal power (to ensure I dont get something silly like go against a Magikarp in the E4)

(I woulda set the extra setting for pokemon evolving dependant on level for enemy but it wasnt incorporated in the randomizer settings at the time (It has been updated though))
