Pokémon Death Cult

Enter the Pokémon Death Cult, a brutal Pokémon challenge and Nuzlocke ruleset that forges your journey in hardship and sacrifice. Inspired by Soulslike, rogue, and even TTRPG mechanics, this set of ironclad rules transforms any Pokémon game into a grueling test of endurance, strategy, and survival. Death is hard to avoid, resources are scarce, and every battle carries weight. Can you withstand the darkness and claim victory?

🔥 Core Challenge Sets:

⚔️ Death Cultist – You must defeat all trainers, fight all battles, and spend all money; fleeing and catching are penalized. With increased levels of difficulty.

💀 War Demon – A challenge with an ever-increasing difficulty. Start in the most merciful rank or pick the most challenging ones, in which healing, items, resurrections, catching, and basically everything is restricted.

🎲 Pockets & Monsters - A mix of classic, old-school tabletop RPG rulesets and Pokémon Nuzlocke. What could go wrong?

🐺 Struggler - A more soulslike approach to a Nuzlocke, for the better or worse.
