Pokemon Platinum Nuzlocke Level Cap Site

Introduction

The "Level Cap" Strategy: Do NOT bring a Lv. 26 Bibarel. It will die. Instead, use the cap to evolve an Eevee into Umbreon (Lv. 26 is exactly when Umbreon learns Pursuit or Faint Attack). Alternatively, catch a Scyther in the Bug Catching Contest (Route 35) and teach it Thief. A Lv. 26 Scyther with Technician-boosted Thief one-shots Mismagius.
