  • Update for Ultimate Monotype Challenge (Ghost).

    Update #2 on White.
    • Beat Bianca and Cheren on Route 4, then headed to Desert Resort, where I caught King Tut the Yamask.
    • Beat the trainers there and went up to Nimbasa City.
    • After training some more around the city, I beat N and took on the gym.
    • Elesa was hard because of Static paralyzing BFG (used Shadow Punch on the Emolga), but I survived Zebstrika's Flame Charge with 1 HP and won with Magnitude.
    • Continued on to Driftveil City after beating Cheren again, and cleared out Cold Storage.
    • Clay wasn't too hard, though he did win once because BFG couldn't get any good Magnitude rolls. The second time around BFG escaped without a scratch.
    • Went through Chargestone Cave fairly quickly, and after arriving in Mistralton City, I hurried up to the Celestial Tower, where I caught Inferno the Litwick.
    • After beating a few trainers I skipped earlier, BFG evolved into Golurk!
    • I am saved on Route 7.

    Update

    First things first:
    Samurott01: I thank you for the suggestion, but I received it a little too late. I beat the league and didn't notice it until just now. besides, I was focusing mainly on hoenn psychics,and forgot Staryu does evolve into a psychic type. I will consider it for future use, though.

    so, as the opening says, I have beaten the league.
    Team at time of current save:
    Staff Lvl. 56
    Ability:Trace
    Psychic
    Calm mind
    Hypnosis
    Shockwave

    Arguably my best fighter out of the bunch, simply becuase of the hypnosis+shockwave helping to deal with Sidney's dark types.

    Magic lvl 54
    Synchronize
    Psychic
    Shadow Ball
    Recover
    Role Play(Still not sure why I kept this...)

    Wasn't really that helpful, except moderately so against pheobe ghost types, and even then it died too quickly.

    BouncyPig lvl 55
    Own Tempo(Very useful against Phoebe's ghost who used confuse ray a lot.)
    Psychic
    Confuse Ray
    Hyper Beam
    Bounce(I acquired this mid-league after beating Glacia, I believe.Before it
    thief, which just wasn't doing enough damage to the league.still semi useful against ghosts.)

    PsychoRock lvl 55
    Levitate (Very useful against drake, as a few of his dragons would try to use earthquake.)
    Confusion(Still don't get why he doesn't learn psychic...)
    Earthquake (Infamously useful)
    Overheat (Helped more than you would think...)
    Solar Beam (Don't think I got to use it except against Wallace's Wiscash)

    Wobbly lvl 57
    Shadow Tag
    Counter
    Mirror Coat
    Safeguard
    Encore

    This guy was Awesome! he saved my butt at the very end when I thought I was going to have to start over, by KOing wallace's last poke with a mirror coat, I believe.

    So yeah, I'm done.
    Onto Plantinum.

  • Update for Ultimate Monotype Challenge (Ghost).

    Update #3 on White.
    • After training a bit more on Route 7, I climbed Celestial Tower, where King Tut evolved into Cofagrigus!
    • Then we challenged the gym. Skyla was no match for BFG.
    • Got the Surf HM, and used it to catch Jilly the female Frillish.
    • Trained Jilly on the water routes with the Lucky Egg, and she soon evolved into Jellicent!
    • Made my way through Twist Mountain to Icirrus City and took on the gym, where Inferno evolved into Lampent!
    • Inferno then took care of Brycen easily with Flare Burst.
    • Team Plasma was making trouble, so I beat them down at the Dragonspiral Tower and Relic Castle.
    • Got the Dark Stone and headed to Opelucid City.
    • EV trained my team, then took on Iris with Inferno and won.
    • Found a Dusk Stone on Route 10 and used it on Inferno, evolving her into Chandelure!
    • Went through Victory Road to the Pokemon League. Everyone was at L53 except King Tut (L52).
    • None of the Elite Four were very hard since my team was at a higher level. Inferno and King Tut were the MVPs.
    • Then I took on N and Ghetsis. They were much harder then the Elite Four as I only had four team members, but I managed to squeak out both fights.
    • Roll credits, and it's time for the postgame!
