The Pokémon Company responds to ex-Nintendo host Nuzlocke claim
"We thought that this would be a fun idea for a Nintendo Minute video, so we pitched it to The Pokémon Company," Ellis began, before punching his own fist, suggesting the idea did not go down well. Yang admitted the pair thought Nintendo was"gonna fire us" for making the suggestion.
Ellis continued, claiming The Pokémon Company refused on the basis it was considered"to be on the same level as using a hacked game". The pair then conveyed their confusion and frustration to the response, as Nuzlocke runs don't involve any hacking.before, it's a Pokémon playthrough with specific player-imposed rules. The two basic rules are:In each area you can only catch the first wild Pokémon that you encounter.
Some people choose to play with other constraints on top of the ones listed above, but it's open to each individual player as to what rules they follow. As Ellis says, it's just a"style" of playing a game. Yang made a further claim regarding people who were a part of the Nintendo Creators Program."There were a lot creators that played a Nuzlocke-style of Pokémon that got erased from their Creator Program," Yang said, and the pair also claimed the bad reactions would put creators off from suggesting ideas for fear of their reputation with The Pokémon Company.
The Pokémon Company has responded to the remarks made by Ellis and Yang in a statement issued to Eurogamer, stating:"The Pokémon Company International does not have any issues with fans or creators playing the video games with Nuzlocke rules".We want to make Eurogamer better, and that means better for our readers - not for algorithms.
