I finally picked up a copy of Pokemon Black and have just finished defeating Alder with my mono-ground team. I started this challenge a year ago and now finally claim the title of Ultimate Ground Type Champion! (Woo!) My Black team: Lv.71 Quirky Excadrill ~ Sand Rush Earthquake Rock Slide...

Ultimage Ground Challnge - Sinnoh - COMPLETE Finally got around to finishing my Ground Run in Platinum. My Platinum Ground Team: If anyone is wondering why I didn't use a Garchomp, probably the most powerful ground type in platinum, it's because I completely forgot about the area you could...

Ultimage Ground Challenge - Emerald Defeated Finished my Mono-Ground run of Emerald. Was a lot faster than the HeartGold run for sure. Was kinda boring that there were so few ground types to choose from in this game but I guess it made it go faster too. Final team: :t340: L.55 Lemongrass...

Gligar --> Gliscor Solid attack, defense and speed. Learns sword dance and you can breed it for Wing Attack. Most of it's learned moveset is trash, but it has solid TM's like Earthquake, Aerial Ace and Brick Break. It's the only flying type immune to electric and has only two weaknesses...

I just wish we could buy coins. I can't remember the last time I played the actual mini-games. It hurts in HeartGold to not be able to buy Thunderbolt.

HeartGold Ult. Mono-Ground Run Just finished my Mono-Ground run of Heartgold. Didn't really do any updates on it as my DS just never seemed to be nearby when I'd think to post. Going to start Emerald now! Final team: :t207: L.85 Grape the Hardy Gliscor X-Scissor Wing Attack Earthquake Sword...

Ultimate Ground - Kanto - Update 3 (Final) Elite four recap: Lorelei: - Nidoking at level 54 won the gold medal in his taking down of Dewgong, Cloyster, Dewgong and Jynx. He badly damaged Lapras before going down. - Fortunately, Lapras' berry healed it just enough to keep Lorelei from using a...

I'm doing Ground right now. Ground has a lot of advantages over a lot of other pokemon types. They generally have big attack and defense values. The biggest challenge is that water-types will generally completely roll your entire team unless you come up with some good strategies or give in...

Ultimate Ground - Kanto - Update 2 Celadon to Fuschia: - Got a silph scope - Caught a Cubone - Caught a Rhyhorn - Retired Graveler Koga: - Challenged at level 37. His Weezing was quite a contender but otherwise no real difficulty. Saffron: - Cleared out Silph HQ Sabrina: - Challenged at...

Ultimate Ground - Kanto - Update 1 I chose Charmander at the beginning because I'm a masochist. This gives my Rival a Squirtle which will make him much more of a challenge. Brock: Defeated him with Charmeleon because there are no available Ground types before Route 3 and there is no option to...

Starting Ultimate Ground-Type Challenge!! I got my feet wet with a Dark-Type Emerald challenge so now I'd like to go for broke and try an Ultimate Challenge with Ground. I will be starting with LeafGreen for Kanto.

Emerald Dark Mono-Type Endgame Beat the elite four with my dark team. I thought I would have something to say for an epic post but really I don't. The elite four in Hoenn isn't challenging at all for a pure Dark Team. I lost a pokemon or two (or three) each round but I never lost a match or...

Last badget get. Took down Juan. Battle wasn't overly difficult with Shiftry, Crawdaunt and Ebony doing most of the work. His Seadra was the main contender and definitely put up a huge fight. It was a back and forth battle until he used Rest the second time and I was able to Swords Dance up...

Just beat the Psychic twins in Mossdeep. Very easy even with level parity due to the type match-up. They did manage to needlessly prolong the battle by spamming Hyper Potions. I'd really like an option to block all item usage during trainer battles. My Dark Emerald team: :t262: L.42 Shadow...

Hooray for Stinger Missiles! Winona was just too easy. I think she really suffers a level deficit considering I was finding wild pokes higher level than her team in areas before you had to beat her. Quite sad. Team is going well now. Finally have my chosen team of six together. Most of...
