I am going to sign up with a Fearow on Pokemon Yellow. May do the ultimate later but for now I am going old school and attempting to do what I first tried to do during my first time playing Pokemon.

I haven't updated in a while. =/ Anyway, Blaziken and I have finally defeated the Elite Four. Our worst struggle was with Wallce. His Milotic used Toxic and kept using recover, and his Gyrados used several Dragon Dances that increased the power of his Earthquake, so I just had to keep reviving and using Full Restores until Earthquake was out of PP before taking him down. Now, I'm going to figure out where Steven is...I have yet to defeat him, afterall.

Update for USC #2.

Final Update (#4) on Emerald.

- So I beat the trainers on the SS Tidal, then I flew to Pacifidlog Town and battled all the trainers along the sea currents. I had totally forgotten they were there lol.
- While surfing along, Latias came up! I captured it with the Master Ball.

- After defeating all the trainers I could find, I went to Meteor Falls. Defeated a couple trainers in there as well, and Palin was at L85.
- Also taught Palin Earthquake, replacing Crunch, and gave him the Soft Sand I had been lugging around since Slateport lol.
- Found Steven!

Final Stats:

Well, I have to say that Emerald ended up being a lot of fun. Gonna play on Diamond or Platinum for Sinnoh.

UPDATE


I started my journey named k137an
chose a totodile as my starter, i left my house and began to travel towards cherrygrove town on the way totodile got to level 6 and when i arrived at mr.pokemons house with my new running shoes totodile was level 7, professor oak gave me a pokedex and mr.pokemon gave me the pokemon egg and i left the house. as i came out the door i got a phone call from prof elm, he told me that a chikorita had been stolen from the lab, which i dont understand because he stands right at the back of the lab facing the door so how did my rival get past him???

any way i left the route with mr pokemons house on it and arrived back in cherrygrove, i used the pokemon centre and left cherrygrove, well i tried but a boy with red haired boy ran up to me told me that the pokemon was wasted on me which technically is true because i was going to trade him for a dratini as soon as i finished the really long opening to this game. i defeated the red haired trainer and he told me i was a waste of space again and then he ran but i stole his trainer card ( am i some kind of ninja) unfortunately he noticed and took it back.

when i arrived back in new bark town i spoke to professor elm and the police officer thought i was the thief! convieniently timed as always lyra ran in and told the officer about a red haired boy looking into the building, i said i battled a boy like that and i knew his name (not mentioning that i stole his trainer card) and for some reason i called my rival :0

And that brings us to where I am now. Another update coming soon!

Hooray, I beat Steven. /late I wandered around Meteor Falls for a bit until I finally found him. Ugh, I hate that most of his Pokemon know Earthquake; it was really getting annoying. But, I somehow managed to beat him with a bunch of revives and the sheer force of my awesome Blaziken. (:

Hello Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread, this is heLLkitsune with his first post in this thread. I'm doing the Ultimate Solo Challenge with my all time favorite pokemon, all hail the great
Spoiler:


yeah that's right, I started the challenge with the awesome bee and I have decided that I'm going to play the games in this order: Leaf Green , Soul Silver/Heart Gold , Emerald , Platinum and I'm not sure if I can beat the 5th gen because I don't own a copy of Black nor White.

Although I beat Leaf Green already, I'm not going to post the whole journey right away.

Stay tunned..

heLLkitsune, KANTO, 1st entry:

- erased the old save file which contained a NFE run (had 3 pokemon on 42 level and 3 pokemon on 24 level before the 4th gym, I was overtraining them a bit) and started a new game
- told Prof. Oak that I'm a boy.. wait a second *checks himself in the mirror*.. Yes, I'm a boy
- called my fictional character heLL15
- and my journey began
- prof. Oak stopped me from going into the tall grass and called me to his lab
- he let me choose a Pokemon from the 3 pokeballs he had on the table
- I wanted to take Squirtle because Blastoise is awesome, but then I remembered my goal: "To be the greatest Beedrill trainer in the world"
- so for making my journey more of a challange I chose Bulbasaur as my starter
- Gary (my rival) chose quite the opposite, he took Charmander a fire type, who evolves into Charizard, a Fire/Flying type Pokemon who has 2 STABs super effective against Beedrill
- we had a battle with our new Pokemon, and sadly for me, Bulbasaur died from a critical hit (first death)
- went to Viridian City and got into the shop, ran the errand for prof. Oak and got myself a pokedex and 5 Pokeballs
- went into Viridian Forest to catch my Powerhouse
- I caught the first Weedle that came across, named it Anger and it turned out to be a hell of a Weedle (yay for Adamant nature)
- began Anger's training, first with babysitting with my Bulbasaur, then training Anger on it's own
- soon enough, Anger evolved into a Kakuna and eventually into Beedrill
- went west from Viridian and had a little battle with Gary and of course I won
- got to Pewter city and challenged the 1st Gym leader Brock
- beat him with a tactic that I was using with Butterfree in an another game, the tactic was like this: Harden six times when the Geodude hardens too, and then poison it with Poison powder, although Anger didn't have Poison powder, it took me some PP of Poison Sting to poison him and kill him, and then poison Onix and potion stall it until it dies
- got my first badge and got running shoes
- made my way through Mt. Moon beating every wild pokemon that appeared and every trainer that I came across
- after some time, I got out of Mt. Moon and got to Cerulean City
- beat Misty easily because Anger was in the mid 20 levels and it knew Twineedle
- met Gary at the begining of the Nugget Bridge and Anger died for the first time, because it missed three times with Fury Attack and Pidgeotto didn't have a hard time killing it with Gust
- I healed up at the Pokecentre and was going to get revenge
- and soon enough I tasted the sweet taste of revenge
- went to Bill and helped him turn back into a human (cmon man, what were you thinking?? )

my team at this state of the game (I don't remember the exact level of my Beedrill and I didn't write it down, how rude of me):

Mind if I go on about this challenge? I've started myself already, and I've been partaking in a Ruby run using a solo Shroomish/Breloom. I haven't decided if I will evolve Shroomish yet though.
