Here's the Monotype page on the Nuzlocke Wikia!
Basically all the usual rules apply, except that you choose a type before starting your playthrough, and stick to it. So you only catch the first eligible pokémon in each area. If there isn't any pokémon of the type you chose in an area, tough luck! You don't get to catch anything there.
I guess the easiest way to start a monotype is to choose one of the starter types, but you could arrange for someone to trade you a 'replacement' starter in your type of choice when you begin your playthrough?

I love the shadylocke! You end up having to keep Tackle-like moves on every mon, or cry in a corner for PP. Definitely a challenge.
