    Hello, and welcome to the Game of Life Challenge. In this Challenge you will be playing through a Pokemon game as if you were in a real life scenario, progressing through life. Sort of like the board game Life.

    The Challenge is Completed when you beat the Elite Four Champion.

    Pokemon #1 - A Hero was Born!:
    6738424.jpg

    This Pokemon is you. The Pokemon must be a Tri-Evolution Pokemon that you get prior to the first gym. Therefore, it can be any of the starters, or a Pokemon such as the Pidgey Line. This is in your children years so if needed you get a Parental Assist. For this, you can use Two Other Pokemon to help assist you until you evolve into your second evolution.

    Pokemon #2 - It's Career Day!

    You may only use Pokemon #2 AFTER your first Pokemon has evolved. This Pokemon is your mentor for your Career Choice. You must pick a Pokemon that coordinates with the type of career that you pick. Here's a list:

    Anything involving technology - Electric or Steel Type Pokemon
    Medical Field - A Pokemon with a Regeneration move
    Teachers - Psychic Type
    Athletic Trainers - Fighting Types
    Pilot/Navigator - Flying Type
    Business - Dark/Normal Types must either be holding a Nugget or Amulet Coin
    Police man/Fire Fighter - Water or Fire Type
    Florist/Gardener/Nature Related - Bug or Grass Type

    If you have any more that you would like me to add, let me know, and I will add them to the list.

    Pokemon #3 - First Comes Love, Then Comes Marriage!

    You may get this Pokemon after the Second Gym has been defeated. This will be your life partner. It MUST be the opposite gender of your first Pokemon.

    Pokemon #4/5 - It's a Boy Girl!

    You may only use this Pokemon after beating the 4th Gym Leader. You can use this slot as one of two ways. You can choose to either just have a single Pokemon and save the final slot for an HM slave. Or get twins! The twins can either be two of the same Pokemon, or two Pokemon that are similar. I.E Growlithe and Vulpix. These Pokemon must always be a lower level than your first and third Pokemon.

    Pokemon #5/6 - Man's Best Friend

    After your kid(s) pestering you day after day to buy a pet, you finally decide to get them one after beating the 5th Gym. This Pokemon can be any Pokemon that could be a pet. Even a fish. It must be a normal pet, though. You can't use Dragonite and say "Well a boy owned a dragon in Eragon". This Pokemon must always be the lowest level on your team.

    Rules:

    -You MUST Nickname all your Pokemon.
    -No Legendaries
    -No Genderless Pokemon, unless it's the Career Mentor
    -No hacking in Pokemon
    -No HM slaves unless you aren't getting twins, then you may have 1.
    -You may catch the Pokemon that you want at any time, but you can't use it until the time specified. For example, you can catch a Nidoran on Route 1 as your life partner, but you can't use it until you beat the 2nd gym.

    If I forgot any let me know.

  • Glad you joined!
    Just so you know, I'm dropping out! I was about to make an update, and was cleaning off some things from my computer and accidently erased. D:. Working on some other challenges now! Will start working on this one after those!

  • Hey I'd love to participate in this challenge! I know it's supposed to be fun and silly way of playing Pokemon, but even then wouldn't it be more appropriate than rather saying that the "First Comes Love" rule be that it must be of the gender you prefer.. I'm saying this as a gay guy myself, and I'm really not trying to turn it into some kind of social justice post, but considering it is the game of life, it would probably make more sense to have everyone included for whatever they choose.

    Anyway, disregarding that, I'd still like to play this on Emerald!

  • ^Puddle, i think you have to participate in your own challenge, thats pretty much a rule...

    But he will be when he gets the means to again, so it's perfectly fine. Life happens. :) Just don't mini-mod, please. If you feel that someone is breaking a rule, report it and I'll get to it.

    Jak and I were actually talking about that. I figured if someone brought up that point, I'd change it. It was kind of intended to be like the game. You pick a Gender, you get a job, you get a spouse, you get kids and have the ability to get twins, you can get a pet all that good stuff. So I was trying to make it like that.

    However, if you would like, I'll turn the kid part into adoption since it's not like you have to breed, and I'll make it an any gender type thing.

    Yeah, I'm not offended cause lol it's Pokemon, so either way it's role playing and I can do whatever. I don't mind picking a female opposite it's not gonna frustrate me. I guess just in the way it goes now with being all-inclusive it is important to incorporate everyone, and the actual board game can be played accordingly. Either way, I think it is what it is so it really doesn't make a huge difference, but still.
