This does look cool, but a few questions I have before I consider signing up:

1. Just to clarify for the Emergency Supplies rule, you can buy 10 Full Restores and Revives before the Elite Four regardless of your other rules, but that's it? Also, you can use Poké Balls to catch your normal team members, correct?
2. For Black and White, do you have any intention of changing the end point to Ghetsis instead of Alder?

Sorry if this shouldn't be asked here, but thanks!

 

[JayTheKing]

Can you add a Viking Era?
Types:Electric Steel Fire Ice Normal Water and Phychc?
An Odin/Thor/Loki kind of thing.

Yeah. 10 Full Restores and Revives. That's it. You use that and whatever else you've safekept for he E4
As for the B/W ending, I never really finished B/W so I dunno which is shorter >_>

I'll see what I can do with that ^^ Feel free to VM me if you have any rules ideas and stuff,

 

[Nick the Trainer]

Username: Nick the Trainer
Game: Pokemon Oro (Gold version in Spanish!)
Era: The Post Apocalyptic Scenario

Intended Team:
Houndour/Houndoom (will use Cyndaquil until I encounter Houndour)
Sodowoodo
Pinsir/Scyther (whichever I encounter first in the bug catching contest)
Nidoran/Nidorino/Nidoking
Gastly/Haunter/Gengar
Onix/Steelix

Also, I will be trying to catch Suicune because he is the only legal Poke in this mode in Gold that can learn Whirlpool and Waterfall. So that'll be interesting especially because the salvage and the left fir dead rules are tough. Also will be playing on set, and the goal is to never black out.

EDIT: Question: By having to buy almost one of everything, would that mean that my character would have to buy mails, potions, pokeballs and other items as well?

 

[Nick the Trainer]

Question on the post apocalyptic rules. Does the Salvage rule mean that buying TMs is not allowed?

You can leave out mails and stuff. Just consumables.

Pretty much yes, you can't buy TMs.

 

[Clemstar]

So with the Western Expansion PokeMart rules.
1. Am I allowed to use items that i've found?
2. When I cash in the items that i've found, do I just remember how much they've sold for and then buy something for an equal or lesser price?

 

[Sho Minamimoto.]

Would that include the Stat Boosters and the Status Healers as well?

 

[Ahri]

Well, you can leave vitamins & stuff out since they're expensive, but everything else goes. (unless you can afford one of each vitamin c.c)

2. When I cash in the items that i've found, do I just remember how much they've sold for and then buy something for an equal or lesser price?

You can use the items that you found.
And the price doesn't reallymatter all that much, as long as you cash in something when you buy something.

 

[Pendraflare]

Let's give this a whirl, why not.

Username: Stargazer
Game: Black 2
Era: Medieval

Also, for the extra rule, do I have to buy one item to buy another (i.e. trading one Potion for one Poké Ball) or can I buy multiples at once (i.e. trading a Poké Ball for as many healing items as I want, like 12 Casteliacones in Castelia or 12 MooMoo Milks at the Driftveil Market)? If the former, guess i'm gonna be mooching off of Pokéstar Studios films a lot for those free Lemonades. For that matter, what about vending machines that are scattered across the region? Sorry for asking so many questions.

You only have to sell one item each time you access the shops.And vending machines are off limits becauseyou can't sell anything to them.

 

[Pendraflare]

Great! Well if I have other questions (which i'm sure I will) i'll check with you on them. So I guess i'll post the first update then.

Black 2 Medieval Era Challenge - Update #1

Spoiler:

So I started the game, named myself Arthur and the rival Hugh. I decided not to name my Pokémon after Arthurian knights, because I already did that in a Monotype (my Soul Silver Ground Monotype back in late summer). I picked Tepig and named it Borky.

I beat Hugh's Oshawott with little trouble after using Tail Whip, gaining two levels after that. Then after being healed up, I went to Route 19, where Bianca was, and I met Alder then found our first catchable Pokémon.

That would be Purrloin. I caught one and named it Mite, then arrived in Floccesy Town. After talking to the people there, Alder told me to take the second Town Map to Hugh. I went to Floccesy Ranch, switch training Mite along the way.

When I got to the ranch, after I had leveled up a little bit, I battled Hugh, who was a tad shaky.

Afterward, I found a FEMALE Riolu, which was pretty cool! I don't usually use Lucario in BW2, but it might be worth holding on to. I caught it and named it Aura, then saved the ranch owner's Herdier from Team Plasma.

I did a bit of training, then helped Alder train some preschoolers. He gave me some Oran Berries on Route 19, and I decided to go to Aspertia Gym and beat the Gym trainers, then do some last minute training (mainly to get Borky to Level 13 to learn Defense Curl) before the Gym Leader.

Then we get to Cheren.

For Patrat, I started with Mite and Growled him to -5 Attack. Then I almost killed him but he beat me to the punch. After he healed, I had Borky set up +6 Defense with Defense Curl, as he did pitiful damage along the way. I killed him from 3/4 or so in two hits of Tackle, the second being a critical hit, haha. Then Lillipup was faster and used Work Up, and my Tackle wasn't doing too much even after a Tail Whip, while he was hitting unusually hard after +1, but I killed him on the second hit with a critical hit too, as you can see. Pidove knocked me low with a critical hit Quick Attack, but I was bumped up with my Oran Berry and then I dealt a critical hit back, so I killed him with two more turns.

So I got the Basic Badge, TM83 for Work Up, the Xtransceiver and TM27 for Return, which is where i'll leave it.

So here's my team:

Spoiler:

Guess that's one part down, good so far but i'll have a lot of options for consideration.

 

[Wanderer Miror B.]

I'll give this challenge a go.

Username: Orrefan8888
Game: Pokemon Ruby
Era: Jurassic Jam

Does this team look okay? I'm not entirely sure what you mean by Pokemon that fall under the Reptilia class, but I tried to select ones that struck me as reptilian.

Sceptile
Armaldo
Gyarados
Torkoal
Flygon

Also, I would like to use Seviper but it is unavailable in Ruby. I know the rules saying trading is prohibited except for evolution purposes, but would I be able to trade it on in an egg to use for my team? If you don't want to allow it, I completely understand, just thought I would ask.

That team looks ok and, ufortunately, rules are rules ^^ You can't trade unless it's for evolving purposes.

I assumed as much. Thanks for the quick response!
