I hate to say this, but that staryu can't be used. At least two valid pokemon are available for your challenge before the first gym. As such, hacking in pokemon cannot be allowed. Exeggcute by headbutting and drowzee outside of goldenrod. Oh and theres also slowpoke in the slowpoke well. So i have to ask you not to use that staryu. Youll have to catch one with good rod when you get one.

The thread is officially up to date! I will probably be doing my weekly updates on either Tuesdays or Thursdays (or Wednesdays if my schedule get's changed, as I suspect it might). Have fun everyone and Merry Christmas!

I have no problem letting you continue from the place you left off in the old thread. It would be nice if you could link me to the last post you made in the old thread. If you can't, I'm plenty willing to take your word for it!

Why certainly. It's not very hard to find, seeing as how I don't have that many posts.
Here is the post: My last update

So yeah...I'll be getting to work on Platinum, now.

Olivine City Pokemon Center I believe. Its not exactly in an obvious location in that game for whatever reason.

Also, make sure that you look for it at night. Thats the only time you can catch them.

I realize that Ice is one of those types that are pretty rare early, but the rule only allows you to hack in one Pokemon in the event that your type can't be found before the third Gym. But hacking 4 is a little excessive, especially since most of those can be caught before the E4. Sneasel is certainly a good choice for your hack, since he can only be found at Mt Silver. But I gotta ask you to stop using 3 of your hacked mons. If you go to Olivine right away you can get a Good Rod and catch a Shellder for your party. The other two you have to wait to catch. Sorry.

It's already been four days since my last update, and I've made a little progress. I chose Snivy and made my way through the opening, quickly making my way through Acumula and to Straiton, where I had a little trouble defeating Chili but eventually managed and earned my first badge. I kept on going and arrived in Nacrene, evolving Snivy into Servine on the way. I defeated Lenora fairly easily and went on my way. Next I went through the Plasma quest and caught and trained the next two members of my team: Cottonee and Sewaddle. Sewaddle quickly evolved into a Swadloon, and eventually arrived in Castelia. There, I explored some of the city before continuing with the storyline. I was having trouble defeating Burgh's gym so I decided to go back to Pinwheel Forest where I trained some more and evolved Swadloon into Leavanny. I went back and had less trouble with Burgh, defeating him then continuing north to Nimbassa. After I rode the Ferris wheel with N I went on to take on Elesa at her gym. I defeated her with a little trouble and earned my fourth badge. Next I crossed the Driftveil bridge and arrived in Driftveil, where I did some exploring before saving on route 6, where I plan to catch and train my next team member, Deerling, before continuing with the Plasma storyline or the gym challenge.

Servine / Lv31 / Tackle, Mega Drain, Slam, Leaf Tornado
Leavanny / Lv32 / Tackle, Slash, Bug Bite, Razor Leaf
Cottonee / Lv31 / Giga Drain, Leech Seed, Razor Leaf, Mega Drain

Would it be okay if I did a Mono-Colour challenge but because I am only going to use Bugs could i count it as Mono-type aswell?

I see no reason why not. That seems perfectly reasonable. :)

Solo and monocolor black, yes. Monotype, no, since there are many normal types available, although he is a great team member for a normal monotype run.

In order to play a Solo with Snorlax, you would have to hack, which is not allowed in the Monotype challenge unless Pokemon of your type are unavailable before the 3rd gym. Since Ratatta is right outside your front door in that game, hacking would result in disqualification. Sorry.
