    First off I misread the evolution requirements, and it turns out that Scyther is the one who trades with a held item to evolve, not Growlithe. Had to fix that but not after catching a ton of Beldums hoping to grab one of their metal coats. Speaking of catching Beldums, they have a catch rate of 3. If you aren't familiar with catch rates, that's the same for Regirock/ice/steel. I actually had to lower it because I ran out of money to buy Pokeballs and didn't have any way to make more besides advancing through the story without it.

    2 things you can do to make catching Beldum easier on yourself:

    -Save before hunting it so you don't have to keep buying balls.
    -Find something with Compound Eyes (Shouldn't be hard) and let it lead your party when looking for Beldum, so it has a higher chance of holding an item.

    Also, in the future, don't link off site when it isn't relevant to the topic at hand.

    • Mattastro91 gets: spheal, umbreon, electabuzz, altaria, raticate, skiploom, gastrodon, and nidoqueen

    If you meant to only ask for 6 instead of 8, then eliminate raticate and gastrodon.

    I had started this challenge a long time ago, but have misplaced my save, and would like to sign up again to restart.
