TEAM REPORT

Spoiler:

Lucius/Arbok@
Rash/Intimidate/Level 28/Male
Rule: Must Always Have A Wrappping Attack.
Moveset:Rock Slide
Bite
Wrap
Poison Sting
Impresions: Improved :D ! Rock Slide, even of an Attack stat of 55 hits like a truck ! Bite hurts things. Needs a more powerful STAB attack.8/10

Luna/Girafarig@
Bashful/Inner Focus/Level 28/Female
Rule:Cannot use Stat raising moves.
Moveset:Stomp
Confusion
Astonish
Flash
Impressions: Its move set is too weak to OHKO anything anymore :(. Really needs some new attacks.Still hits hard enough to hurt and takes enough hits to KO opponents, just gotten a bit stale. 7/10

Belatrix/Absol@BlackGlasses
Rash/Pressure/Level 30/Female
Rule:Must always start battles against HIM, Team Rocket, Gym Leaders and the Elite 4.Cannot return to ball untill she has defeated a Pokemon or faints

Pansy/Slowpoke@
Timid/Oblivious/Level 28/Female
Rule:Must use a non offensive move first, before attacking
Moveset:Water Gun
Confusion
Yawn
Dig
Impressions: Slipped a little due to Water Gun still being its most used attack (Bar Yawn), it just doesn't hit hard enough. Confusion can hit okay, Dig runs off its higher stat but with it being slower I'd rather risk a Special Attack taking 2 turns then be poisoned underground. 7/10

Goyle/Tropius@
Bold/Chlorophyll/Level 28/Male
Rule:Must be first in the Party inside caves
Moveset:Gust
Razor Leaf
Stomp
Cut
Impressions: Very unerwhelming still ! Stomp & Gust both hit for not too much, so Fly will be slapped on it ASAP ! Razor Leaf is easily its best attack. It is growing on me due to its durability, may replace Razor Leaf with Giga Drain to exploit the survivability factor.7/10

Calm/Serene Grace/Level 28/Male
Rule:Must use Special Based Attacks
Moveset:Water Pulse

Rule: Must Always Have A Wrappping Attack.
Moveset:Rock Slide

Bite
Future Sight
Slash
Impressions: It got a couple of kills but still VERY underwhelming. Didn't hit too hard ,being underleveled to the extent my team was really didn't help it.7/10
Overall Game Rank:10/10-Was brilliant from the moment I caught her. Even in the later parts she was still usefull, getting a couple of KO's. I really really LOVE this thing.
Use Again:Yes

Pansy/Slowbro@Quick Claw
Timid/Oblivious/Level 51/Female
Rule:Must use a non offensive move first, before attacking
Moveset:Surf
Psychic
Toxic
Brick Break
Impressions:OMG Pansy won 8/10ths of the Elite 4 single handedly. As you can see from the level jump it had the most kills, and its moveset complimented it stats completely. Bulky enough to Toxic stall, offensive enough that Surf,Psychic and Brick Break hit hard enough to hurt.10/10
Overall Game Rank:9/10-Slow start, needed to evolve so badly !!! But when she did there was no looking back. Really enjoyed using her.
Use Again:Yes

Goyle/Tropius@

Rule:Must be first in the Party inside caves
Moveset:Fly

Overall Game Rank:5/10-The model of inconsistency. Some times the MVP, some times the LVP. At the end of it all just a mediocre Poke.
Use Again: Yes

Neville/Dunsparce@
Calm/Serene Grace/Level 44/Male
Rule:Must use Special Based Attacks
Moveset:Water Pulse
Shock Wave
Blizzard
Fire Blast
Impressions:Literally the worst thing I used throughout the game, proberly one of the worst pokemon I've used in a run through of any game. This is the reason I won't be using the special rule next time, I think I limited Dunsparce to the the point of unusable. 1/10
Overall Game Rank:3/10- Easily the worst thing I used. Maybe the Sp Attack thing killed it ,but I doubt it ,seeing it Sp attack stat was higher then its Attack.
Use Again: Never

Wow, loads of updates! Good job for getting so much done Kimbo, it's been good fun reading about your journeys.

Unfortunately it does say in the OP that the challenge is complete when you beat the E4 at their highest levels - meaning that you have to do the E4 rematches to beat FR/LG! Sorry, but them's the rules...

If you'd like to go ahead and start your SS challenge, then be my guest - here's your team:

Ninetales
Marowak
Umbreon
Noctowl
Claydol
Lucario

SoulSilver challenges also end when you beat the Elite Four for the SECOND time, i.e. after you go through Kanto. You don't need to beat Red.

Enjoy!

Thanks Sammu, glad you enjoyed it :)
Ahh, I did read it, I was just wondering as I wouldn't if I played Red/Blue. But thanks for clearing that up for me, I'll get on it soon :)
I'll take the team now and then use it once I've suffered through FR aftergame :P
Yay :D I really like that team (though who learns Surf on it?), though am I using Pokegen to hack them in ? My DS emulator hates cheat codes :@ Also I'm using HG not SS anymore, hope that isn't a problem.

if you need a Surf poke take Starmie over Ninetales/Marowak.

I'll take it over Ninetails thank you :)

My bad - I actually did have Starmie in originally, but I wanted to give you Claydol and wanted to keep the types reasonably different so I had a brain fart and forgot to give you a different Surf Pokemon.

Hacking is fine, as long as you do it at level 1-5 (same as trading them over at level 1).

And HG instead of SS is absolutely a-ok.

Also played the slots for Shadow Ball, TBolt, Ice Beam and Flamethrower TMS for Pokes (See Team Report).

Bruno:Pansy Sweep

Positive note: Moving on to Heart Gold, prob Tomorrow :D

-Named Rival Robert
-Headed to Violet City ,defeated all trainers.
-Headed West, got Rock Smash HM, headed to Sprout Tower.

TEAM REPORT

Spoiler:

Majora/Staryu@
Mild/Natural Cure/Level 9/Genderless
Moveset:Tackle
Harden
Twister *
Water Gun
Impresions: Really like Majora :D Hits VERY hard , I think Water/Psychic (I know Staryu doesn't get a psychic type untill evoloution)is a generally good typing with many solid options. 9/10

Boomerang/Cubone@
Adament/Rock Head/Level 7/Male
Moveset:Growl
Tailwhip
Double Kick*
Bone Club
Impressions: Struggled, but hasn't really fought anything it had a chance against with most trainers using Flying.Bug or Grass Pokemon, which he can't hit very hard. 5/10

Kaepora /Hoothoot@
Mild/Insomnia/Level 8/Male
Moveset:Tackle
Night Shade*
Foresight
Hypnosis
Impressions: Solid but unspectacular. Doesn't hit hard but can take hits, better then I thought honestly. 7/10

Beast Link/Umbreon @
Docile/Synchronize/Level 8/Male
Moveset:Tail Whip
Tackle
Sand Attack
Detect*
Impressions:Seen a lot of BeastLink as he takes longer to level up, as everyone else needs to evolve, where as he doesn't. Also lack luster offensive stats don't help in game. 6/10

Beamos/Baltoy @
Modest/Levitate/Level 8/Genderless
Moveset:Confusion
Mud Slap
Rapid Spin
AncientPower*
Impressions: Me likey :D. Takes hits, deals damage, this runs Slowbro (I hope). 8/10

Keaton/Riolu @
Serious/Steadfast/Level 8/Male
Moveset: Quick Attack
Endure
Rock Smash
Bullet Punch*
Impressions: Haven't risked him in major battles because of the happiness issue. Bullet Punch, Rock Smash and Quick Attack hurt alot this early, so it looks promising. 7/10

P.S. Sammu when do you plan on carrying yours on ? It was such a fun read :)

P.S. Sammu when do you plan on carrying yours on ? It was such a fun read :)

Thanks very much! I just had a quick look back through the pages in this thread and it turns out I've not actually updated a challenge of my own for over a year now...! My first Ones that Got Away challenge ended last December, and since then I've been allocated a team but never got round to starting it. There's several reasons for this - life got in the way, Skyrim got in the way, my addiction to Nuzlocke challenges got in the way (I've actually got 4 on the go at once at the moment, all at the pre-E4 training stage except my White challenge which is just post-Nimbasa). I also started to draw out a Nuzlocke comic over on the official Nuzlocke boards.

In other words, I had a million and one other things to do, and as my Soul Silver cartridge is in use (for one of those Nuzlocke challenges) I just never had a chance to start. I think it's probably best that I put my own repeat Ones that Got Away challenge on an official hiatus for now, but rest assured I'll still be checking the board to read updates and fiddle with the original post. I still fully intend to do my second challenge but it'll just be a while before I start. It's possible in fact that I'll bump it up to a White challenge instead, we shall see...

Anyways, thanks again for complimenting my original updates (surprised you read through them as they were so long!) and keep your own coming!
