Description

Have you ever wanted to Nuzlocke a Pokemon game with only bad Pokemon? Have you ever wanted to do that while doing economic research on resource management and risk-analysis? If so, Pokemon Garbage Blue is the game for you! After playing Pokemon Garbage Green I wanted to do a port for Generation I, so I created Pokemon Garbage Blue. Most of the mechanics are the same but I wanted to make some changes to make this experience a bit different from the original. The game is quite easier than Garbage Green (maybe similar to Emerald Trashlocke). 

Many routes, caves, and buildings trap you in and force you to fight many trainers. The vast majority of healing items are removed from the game and none are buyable before being able to challenge the Elite 4. All places with gauntlets are non-FLY-able, TELEPORT-able, and Escape Rope-able, so there are no ways to get out. Thus, managing your team’s resources with HP and PP is extremely important. Many gauntlets are inaccessible after you leave with valuable items hidden behind optional trainers, and one gauntlet requires you get encounters mid-gauntlet.

Features

• Starters are: Charmander, Goldeen and Paras
• Poison damage added again (yep, keep your poison types alive)
• Hidden objects are still remaining

• Learnsets changed to some mons (Charmander, Abra, Magikarp, Beedrill and Butterfree)
