Start Challenge Version: Red Name: Jack Rival: John Picked Bulbasaur, didn't give it a nickname. Battled rival and won. Quickly delivered Parcel, and headed back to Viridian to get Poke Balls. Caught Nidoran (male). Had a rough time training it from level 2 up. When it reached level 10, caught...

That sounds... gruesome. There's always the Mew Trick. :D Gold was definitely my favorite, and I was quite sad when the cartridge ended up breaking. The only one I've ever completed a Pokedex in is Red. My last Poke was a Flareon from a friend.

I choose Poison. Is there a limit on party size? Some challenges I've seen limit it to 3 of the type, and the rest are empty or HM slaves.

As Binary said, use the boat. It's a great source of money, especially with the amulet coin (just make sure that pokemon participates in all the battles). From what I remember of Gold/Silver, you are able to go on the ship multiple times in the same day, you just always have to come from the...

What are you talking about, Ch'ding is a great nickname! Unfortunate that the formatting on that got a little skewed, but at least it's still readable. I thought there was one or two more trades, but I guess not. Won't argue with Bulbapedia.

Psychic doesn't sound like too much of a challenge, but what the hey. I'm guessing the challenge doesn't really start until Cerulean/Vermillion, since you can't catch any Psychics 'till then. What should the player do up until that point? Just play normally, or have some sort of handicap...

In FR, I caught a shiny Rattata really early in the game. I've insisted that it remain on my main team simply because of that. :D My friend recently caught a shiny Pidgey in his FR. All of the other shinies I've found are in Gold, but eh. Shinies are pretty much the reason I always stock up...

O_o I've never thought of Sprout Tower as hard, and I usually pick Totodile. Just catch a Pidgey or Hoothoot and raise it a couple levels and you should be perfectly fine. I prefer Totodile, but Cyndaquil's your best bet for a quick game, and Chikorita's there if you want a challenge, as...

Weren't Red and Green released at the same time in Japan? Their Green was just the same as our Blue, that's all. (And their Blue was the same as our Green--except we never got a Green Version :X) To be really technical, though, our Red and Blue were based on the Japanese Blue's engine with just...

I think finding a name and story take major priority here. Not too many people are going to join in if they don't know what their goals will be. As for the features, some are great, some don't look so good. I'm not sure how dragon starters will blow over, but they'll probably need some stat...

Golbat does evolve with Happiness. You could try just hugging the left wall or something as soon as you enter. Theoretically you should be able to get through eventually. You could also just catch an extra pokemon as a flash slave (like hoppip). Most likely, yes. The new Flash savetype...

@TheSL: Thanks for coming here and clearing stuff up. I'm quite enjoying the LP, too. It's been a good time. It's Seafoam Islands from FR. If Zel follows the GSC path, it'll be empty, save for Blaine. If he decides to go a new route, like the Safari Zone (thank you, Zel), it will probably...

Of course, keep the maze's difficulty, but perhaps make that one part accessible by surfing, so that they can't get stuck there without surf. There's a labeled screenshot at the bottom of this post showing a simple fix. It won't affect the maze structure, I think. As long as that ledge is...

Cool. I haven't run into a Solrock yet, but I'll look where I've battled Lunatones and see how that works out. Haha amazing. Didn't see that before. I'm kinda tempted to catch one and throw it in my Bad EGG box. (It's got one Bad EGG and 3 more invisible ones. Not sure how they got there, but I...

Sent you a PM, blackpen. I hope there's more bug-catching contests in the future. I was dumb and saved after wasting my first 2 chances by getting Everstones. Now I only have 1 Sun Stone and 2 pokemon to evolve. :/ Also liked the legendaries appearing on the map. Only ran into Entei so far, and...
