Do y’all ever box your starter in a nuzlocke?

Not talking about runs where it wouldn’t be a viable encounter

Do y’all ever get rid of your starter, or do y’all try to take it as far as possible?

I didn’t bring my Inteleon to the Champion fight in my hc Sword nuzlocke. In fact, once my Tympole evolved, I started using it almost exclusively over my Drizzile.
