FIRST UPDATE: New Bark Town to Violet City Gym
- Since this is the Random pokemon challenge, I've decided to go with a card themed naming system, and named my (female) trainer ROYA short for royal.
- Got my starter from the professer, picked Chikorita randomly
- Generated a Mime Jr. and caught it, named the little guy Jack. Woo hoo he starts with confusion! Oh, caught him with a luxury ball because he's supposed to be mr. mime eventually why not hurry it along a bit?
- Confusion WRECKS wild pokemon, I have no issues getting to Mr. Pokemon's house. Jack's level 7 by the time we head back.
- OH NOES FIRST RIVAL BATTLE oh wait, Jack's first confusion is a critical hit and OHKOs him. The poor cyndaquil didn't know what hit him.
- I continue on, still smashing all wild pokemon and trainers in my way pretty handily. Jack's at like, at least half health when we reach Violet City.
- Bellsprout tower huh, too bad bellsprouts are part POISON AND FALL TO JACK'S MIGHTY CONFUSIONS HAHAA. Same with all the ghastly I meet.
- Jack's at level 14 before the gym, and I get him up to 15 just for the sake of being even.
- Falkner was actually not quite a breeze. His first pidgey fell in two hits but the one sand attack it got in was just enough to give me issues with the pidgeotto. Roost was annoying and I actually had to use a potion or two, but I pulled through.
- Ugh, Bugsy is next, he's gonna be a real challenge with Jack being psychic. Off into the wild blue yonder once again!

-Poison Sting
-Toxic
-Fury Attack
-Twineedle

Hitmonlee, level 49

Other remarks:

I hadn't used most of these guys in a team before, so I enjoyed getting to use them. The first half of the run essentially amounted to a Beedrill solo run, which wasn't exactly what I had in mind, but I enjoyed the experience (and realized that Beedrill + Twineedle in gen 1 actually works pretty well, at least in-game). It did take a while to even out the rest of my team members' levels, but it all worked out in the end.

Sorry I completely forgot about this challenge!

Anyways Update Number One:

Hacked in Bellsprout considering he is unavalible in fire red and named him Bel-Air (I had to)
Did all the beginning stuff you always gotta do for the ol' man.
Got dem balls and went and caught a Mankey named Amazon.
Wandered through Viridian Forest and stalled against metapods.
Somewhere along the way Bel-Air learned Wrap and Mankey learned Low Kick and Karate Chop
Killed Brock. I think after I was done with him he just quit.
Got the running shoes and beat the "i like shorts" route.
Went through the Mt. Moon and found an approximate 5000 Zubats. Also taught Bel-Air Bullet Seed over Vine Whip.
Bel-Air begins to learn all the ****ty powder moves while i almost fall asleep.
Amazon wrecks nerdy men and i receive a fossil that i will never use.
I exit Mt. Moon and teach Amazon both the MT moves.
Rival destroys me a few times because of that stupid Pigeotto. After two times, I figure out "Wait, couldn't i just put it to sleep?"
Defeat rival and defeat the bridge people.
Defeat Team Rocket member in disguise and receive my paycheck.
Catch Detroit the Oddish and train him against the tiresome hikers ahead.
Detroit learns ****ty moves.
Bel-Air evolves into the derp of my team.
After too many battles I turn Bill into a human again and he gives me a ticket to the S.S. Anne.
I slap Misty's water types in the face with some of Detroit's absorbs until he faints to Swift and then shot that motherf***er in the face with some of Bel-Air's Bullets.

To be continued...

Trainer's Log 1

Current Team
Sai - Heracross - Level 23
Kyoryu - Rhyhorn - Level 10
Konchu - Nincada - Level 7

I'm currently at the Dewford Pokemon Centre, about to challenge the Dewford Gym. If you're wondering why Sai is ridiculously over levelled, it's because I had a hard time with the first gym. So I levelled him up to 23 for Brick Break.

EDIT: and now I'm peed off because I tried to save, but instead loaded -.- So now I have nothing but a level 8 Sai and Level 5 Kyoryu.
