RULES
1) If a Pokémon faints it is considered dead and is boxed permanently
2) Only the first encountered Pokémon per area may be caught
- 2.1) When entering a new area, wander around aimlessly eyes closed/covering the screen until you step on a wild Pokémon
- 2.2) Dupes clause: 2 extra chances for a different pokemon
- 2.3) Shiny clause: shinies may be caught and used (but not deliberately hunted for)
3) This is a no starter run. The game-assigned starter may be used when the game requires it and for grinding purposes but it must be boxed as soon as the team reaches the level cap.
- 3.1 The starter will be replaced with a predetermined gift Pokémon.
Nessa's Motorcycle Adventures is a running joke that was born in January 2015. This comment chain started a silly AU for my main comic in which Nessa has a motorcycle. And that's it. That's the whole deal. In March 2022 when Scarlet and Violet were revealed my immediate reaction was this. And finally, on 1st of April 2025 I fooled myself by drawing the start of Nessa's Motorcycle Adventures in Paldea. All this time I thought I was joking but drawing the last strip changed something inside of me and I knew this had to become reality. I had become the biggest fool.
What will this mean for Emerald? Nothing. Emerald will continue as it was continued before - irregularly and whenever I have time to work on the massive updates. Ideally being able to work on something silly and less serious will help me get over some of the heavier parts of Emerald quicker but only time will tell.
Is the motorcycle adventure AU/canon? The two exist in the same realm and Scarlet will most likely refer to Emerald but Emerald won't refer to the events of Scarlet. If anything, I may reference to Paldea as a region in Emerald but what happens in Paldea, stays in Paldea. I will not think about it too much and I suggest you do the same. This is a silly run for shits and giggles only.
Do I need to know the Emerald Nuzlocke comic to read this? Not necessarily. This comic won't have a whole lot of references to my Emerald comic but I also won't bother explaining things or treat this like a new comic with its separate readerbase.
How's the gameplay? I only just got started and I will most likely work on the comic as I play to prevent myself from planning too much.
