Update for USC #3.

Final Update (#5) on Emerald.


  • Woke up at home, and after visiting with my parents for a bit, I got a call from Scott.
  • Boarded the S.S. Tidal at Slateport (the music here is awesome!), and Excalibur grew to L76.
  • Used 10 Rare Candies, then beat the rest of the trainers.
  • Disembarked at Lilycove, then flew to Rustboro and made my way north to Meteor Falls.
  • Found the secret cave, where Steven was waiting!

    Steven was tough to get going against, but once Skarmory was out of the way, the rest was cake. Here's the video of the battle.


  • Hoenn is conquered! On to Sinnoh!

I'm doing this on Gold with Wobufett,but since it's impossible,(due to Ghost attacks being physical and Counter doesn't hit,and Dark are special and Mirror Coat doesn't hit,and there's Morty and Karen)
I'm hacking Counter & Mirror Coat to be Dragon type(it won't affect damage,so it shouldn't be a problem)

I am starting a LeafGreen Solo with Venasaur and I just beat my Rival on route 22

Overgrow/Bulbasaur
Lv 9
Tackle
Growl
Leech Seed

The battle was hard as his Pidgey fired off a lot of sand attacks but i managed to get a leech seed off and used that for the KO. For Charmander I used a very similar strategy.

Although I love Wobbuffet,without a back-up it is impossible to work with,so dropping of off that, instead I'll do a Xatu Solo-Run on Gold;
Sorry for the trouble

Ultimate Solo Challenge Update #6 with Weedle

Well finally I'm back after writing my exams, so back to updates!

-I finished Rock Tunnel, wow I hate that place.
-Went and fought all but 3 of the battles on Route 8, and all but 1 on Route 12.
-Tried to fight my rival in Pokemon Tower and lost, I guess I'll worry about that later.
-Got to Celadon. Beat the Rocket Grunt blocking the poster and hit the button, and won 400 coins on slots.
-Went to the store and bought drinks and Awakenings, since apparently the other stores don't sell them now.
-I found a PP Up, so I used it on Poison Sting, lol.
-Then I went and beat all the trainers in the 4th gym, including Erika. I had to beat her twice since the first time her Vileplume got a critical on me when she was one Poison Sting away from death. Here's a screenshot of me having beat Erika: http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn205/S_K_F/1118110028a_294171.jpg
Weedle is currently level 45.

Next is Wigglytuff, which is cool, because its practically identical to Clefable.

Edit: Oh dear, it seems as if I'm feeling creative now. I named everyone. Behold (brownie points will be awarded to anyone who gets the names).
