Ludlocke

The "Ludlocke" is Ludwig's spin on the average "Nuzlocke"

Nuzlocke is a term that is used for ramping up the difficulty on pokemon games by making it where there are certain rules, of which follow:
 * You have to catch the first pokemon you see in each route, and cannot catch any more pokemon there.
 * You have to name each pokemon, to make it near and dear to your heart.
 * If a pokemon dies, you can no longer use it.
 * The game ends if you black/white out.

Now, if the regular nuzlocke isn't hard enough, Ludwig has gone and added a new layer of difficulty by doing the following:
 * He names each pokemon after a Twitch chatter, and if that Pokemon dies, they are banned until the Ludlocke ends.
 * He cannot use potions in battle.

In his Ludlockes, he usually throws during the game, to stretch out the gameplay, earning more donations, and more usable gameplay in his YouTube highlights.

 * Soulsilver and Heartgold

Within these Ludlockes, he also has these "games" he plays. He calls them, "The Ludwig Gambit" / "The Gambit", and the "One Time". The Gambit is basically playing against odds, and praying to everloving heaven that you come out on top. The one time allows him to do one thing that's special, each ludlocke. But he only gets one. Each chatter also gets one and can give Ludwig one of theirs.
