The '''Nuzlocke Challenge''' is a set of rules intended to create a higher level of difficulty while playing the [[Pokémon games]]. Many challengers feel that the rules also serve the purpose of encouraging the use of Pokémon the player would not normally choose, and promoting closer bonds with the player's Pokémon. The rules are not an in-game function, but are self-imposed on the part of the player, and thus subject to variation. | The '''Nuzlocke Challenge''' is a set of rules intended to create a higher level of difficulty while playing the [[Pokémon games]].

Some other variations of the Nuzlocke exist. These have extra rules that are mandatory in addition to the core rules. Some use [[Cheating|cheating devices]], some are legitimate. | Some other variations of the Nuzlocke exist. These have extra rules that are mandatory in addition to the core rules.
