I beat it 8/8 badges and beat the elite four(and Others).

It was easy as ever even without using the EXP share and setting battles to set.
I simply soloed it with my trusty Gardevoir (and Azumarill for the rock and steel) who had Psychic,Dazzling Gleam, Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball which made so she could pretty much counter EVERYTHING in the elite four XD

Final Team:

Gardevior Lvl 72

Azumarill Lvl 74

Florges Lvl 65 ;Florges sucks, horrible move pool :(

Spritzee Lvl 66 ; Too adorable :P

Sylveon Lvl 67

Mawile Lvl 61 ;mostly Hm/Tm slave

Also I have to say Fairy is easily my new favorite type :)

I'll be going through a second playthrough this time ghost XD kinda the opposite of last time.
Username: Sindrie
Type: ghost
Challenge: single
Game: Y

Same as last time no EXP share and battle style will be set. I plan to get Honedge from route 6 and use him as my main.

Hey guys, just letting you know I WON. 8/8 badges on X and E4, all here in one convenient update.

Pokemon X Fighting: Complete!
Badges: 8
Pokemon: 6

Story:
(WARNING: This update contains spoilers about X & Y. Do not look at it until you beat the game yourself.)
Spoiler:



The wonderful team that got me through the storyline!
(WARNING: This team contains spoilers about X & Y, though not as badly as the story. Do not look at it until you beat the game yourself.)
Spoiler:


Well, now that I got that done, it's time for me to go back to my Poison challenge in Crystal. Also, I don't plan to do the Kalos monotypes until I get Y Version. Since I only have X, I would have to restart all of my progress that I made, which I don't plan to do. So, until I update again, bye!

Axew's evolution line can learn Poison Jab :P So can Garchomp, but you probably won't have that before then.

Anyway, I might look into more Monotypes on Y once my schoolwork settles down.

Actually, I can get Skrelp with a Good Rod before then, so I won't die!
