    Aetheria's Ghost Type Challenge

    A lot happened but not a lot relevant. Here is a quick rundown...

    1. Started with Squirtle as I figured that would lead to the easiest rival.
    2. Squirtled Brock and Misty with little challenge.
    3. Completed the S.S.Anne. Got cut.
    4. Caught an Oddish to use cut.
    5. Skipped all gyms and ran straight for the Rocket hideout in the Casino.
    6. Defeated the Rockets and got Silph Scope.
    7. Caught a Gastly, which after four Rare Candies and two battles evolved.
    8. Ran all the way back to Lt. Surge.
    9. Now standing outside the third gym.

    The game has been a joke so far, but here is where it gets hard. Here is my team...

    Haunter - L25 Lick/Confuse Ray/Night Shade
    Blastoise - L43 Tackle/Bite/Bubble/Watergun
    Oddish - L13 Absorb/Cut

  • Okay, I went and updated the first page with the past two weeks' progress. And I'll also be fixing up the first page now, with some new clarifications on the rules, a new design, some more banners, and something new which I've decided is feasible enough to add. ^^

    The sad part, all monospecies/type runs >.<

    And now, I'll try umm.... Bug type.

    ehh sorry for the no updates. so i am doing silver and my poison team is pretty great. i chose cyndaquil got the egg went back owned carlos , my rival. then i went to back to my home town gave elm the egg then went to falkners gym. since it was night i couldnt get a weedle and i forgot about the ghastly in sprout tower so i just owned the gym with cyndaquil. then went to sprout tower and pleasantlly found a ghastly and caught it. i then banked cyndaquil and went to the next route where i caught an ekans. i level grinded a bit then went to the first trainer on that route who handed my ass to me. my ekans sucked cause of only knowing leer and wrap and my ghastly couldnt effect his rattata so i got owned probably ten times. so i saved then when i got back on i went and caught a weedle, it being in the day. i then named him da drill(after my former selfs beedrill) and grinded that baby up till it was a beautiful beedrill. then i went owned handed that youngsters ass to him. then i breezed threw that route with my ghastly and my beedrill. then i deposited my laaaaaame ekans and owned everyone everywhere in johto. i said that cause i dont remember much from johto:/
    haha and right now ive beaten Lt. Surge and misty and i saved it right before battling that lady grass type gym(dont remember her name)

    Aetheria's Monotype Ghost Challenge - Part 2

    A really easy day... Let's get straight to it.

    1. Beat Lt. Surge - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwHm7T3swf8
    2. Finished the Tower. Never have I seen so much licking.
    3. Beat Erika - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLMt4Kck-DQ

    That is where I stopped for the night. Pokemon statuses are included at the end of the Erika video.

    Giving Haunter Thunderbolt is the best decision I have made this game. I know the gym battles don't show that, but I use it a lot.

    Aetheria's Monotype Ghost Challenge - Part 3 (Kanto's End)

    1. Beat Gary and Giovanni in Silph Co. (Probably should have recorded these but didn't. Gary was basically a bunch of thunderbolt, although alakazam almost killed me. Giovanni was a joke.)
    2. Defeated Sabrina - Video
    3. Beat up the Fighting Club and took the Hitmonchan. No real reason, just for fun.
    4. Taught Haunter Psywave. (Mistake, I'll fix it soon enough though.)
    5. Beat Koga - Video
    6. Used Master Ball on a Pidgey. Felt really good.
    7. Massacred Blaine and his gym - video
    8. Flew to Viridian and rocked Giovanni - video
    9. Beat Gary again, no video until Champ match though.
    10. Ran through Victory Road with minor PP issues.
    11. Beat the Elite Four - Part 1 / Part 2
    12. Struggled through the Rival - video

    Never did get around to fixing the Psywave problem, never really became a major issue. Wish I had thought about some PP items as well, but no problem. Kanto is complete and I will move onto Johto later today.
