    Since I've already Solo-run Sinnoh with almost all of the Burmy evos, I guess taking on a challenge like this should keep me sharp! Since I've never really used any of the water starters (Piplup's the only one I've used, come to think of it), I guess this is the best choice.

    Level grinded everybody up to Lv 40
    took on the Elite 4

    1 - Will was, by far, the most annoying. 3 words : STOP SPAMMING PSYCHIC
    It took me forever to take his Jynx down.

    2 - Koga was the second most annoying. Quagsire was doing fine when, all of a sudden... you know it's comming... EXPLOSION! *faint*... RAGE!

    3 - Bruno was almost single-handedly defeated by Tentacruel thanks to Barrier / Rain Dance / Surf

    4 - Karen was victim of hax :P . Dynamic punch hit on the first try, Vileplume suffered a Critical Ice Punch, Gengar flinched to Bites (once paralyzed). Houndoom was the only one who posed a threat taking down Quagsire because Crunch lowered his SpD and dark is still special... -.-'

    Lance - He was sorta tricky... (teach Hyper Beam to ALL the pokémon!) Ice Punch 2HKO all the dragonites, Spark OHKOed Gyarados. Charizard and Aerodactyl were taken down by Tentacruel using Barrier (to soften HB blows) and Rain Dance and Surf did the job.

  • Wow, imagine my surprise when I return to do some challenges and find a new thread. :)

    Username: InfernoRogue
    Challenge 1: Flying
    Completed 1: I, II, III
    Challenge 2 : Bug
    Completed 2: I, II, III

    Both are progressing ultimates, btw.

    I planned to move on to Platinum with Beautifly, Mothim, and Vespiquen, as doing this would technically count for both a Flying and Bug monotype. I was wondering if this was fine with you. If it isn't, then it's not a problem.

    I wasn't added to the first post yesterday after it was updated. I was wondering if I had made an error or perhaps I might have been skipped. Sorry if this is bothersome or annoying sounding.

    Hi, Just a quick heads up.
    It seems you're using your Croconaw in battle as cannon fodder. You are supposed to use ONLY the Steel (to be) pokemon on your team, in battle. It's supposed to be a challenge ;)

    Oops.

    Yeah. Didn't think of that. That was in the middle of the battle and I forgot the rule. Sorry. Will not do that again.

    last update :)

    Hey guys, I'm back with another update. Sorry it's taken so long, grinding was ALOT harder than I thought it would be.

    (Final) Update 3!

    OK, I think I posted an update 2.5 before the other thread was locked, but for everyone's sake, I'll start from right after I beat N and Ghetsis.

    So, the first thing I did (obviously) was catch my last two teammates - Poliwrath and Breloom! Went right to Driftveil City to catch a Poliwag on Route 6. Surprisingly, I managed to catch a Poliwhirl! It was female, so I went random and named it Aquamarine. Then, after DAYS of SRing (soft resetting if you didn't know) the game, I got a swarm Shroomish on Route 11. It was also female, and I named it Crys (short for Chrysanthemum, the flower) (I know, I spelled it wrong.), not at all related to my LG Poliwrath, Chris. Sadly, I forgot to get Spore on Crys before she evolved. :( Tough luck. Anyway, then the grinding process began (my pokes were only around the low to mid- 50s.). From 50 to 60, I fought Audinos purely. From 60 to 70, I used a mixture of the Nimbasa stadium and court, the trainers in the post-game, and the dark grass pokes under Village Bridge. I had to cut Gale's (my Mienshao's) training short at 68 because it was going way too slowly. Anyway, I then went on to face Morimoto, then Cynthia. Here are the play-by-plays.

    Morimoto:
    Spoiler:


    Next up was Cynthia. Here's her play-by-play.

    XXXXXXXXXXXX!!!
    Sorry, but I don't have enough time to fully end the update. Sorry! Bye.

    So it took me a couple of days, because I haven't been playing too much, but I've defeated Fantina in Platinum on my Fire UMC.

    Taking a break and starting a new challenge.
