    I haz an update!

    So, started my Game, chose Torchick, NAmed it Mook for the heck of it :p
    Did all that beginning stuff, beat May.
    Trained on my way to Rustboro, by the time I got there I was 14 or 15, so I finished training Mook to 16, where he evolved into Combusken. I double-kicked my way to victory againt the gym, and then I saved Peeko and got the Poketech thing.
    Took the boat to Dewford, and while in the cave I caught a makuhita. I raised the Makuhita to level 18 or so, and then used Mook and his peck to beat Brawly.
    Beat all the trainers on the beach next to Slateport, beat the Soda Pop trainers.
    Saved the Museum.
    Beat my Rival again as I head to Mauville.
    Beat Wally.
    Beat the Gym leader and his Lackeys.
    Beat the News people.
    Made my way up to Fallarbor town, and met LAnette. Started the Team Magma crap, and went and beat them.
    I then whited out on the Path... as Mook fainted against the Magma leader, and I didn't bother to heal up... xD
    Finally got to the Fire gym town.
    Beat that with ease.
    Trained a tiny bit, and then beat Norman (Have a video, will upload later(Nevermind about the video >.> It didn't process or something, and so I have no video.).
    I'm now in Fortree, having saved the Weather Center, and Beaten May, again.
    I'm going to catch a Meditite at Mt. Pyre and see if I can't teach him a thunder move for the Flying Gym.

    Did some of the MAgma stuff, caught a Meditite, who has Hidden Power Fight (>.>). Eventually taught him Rock Tomb to help with the Gym, ended up beating it with Mook for the most part.

    Team is a Blaziken (Mook)
    Haryama
    And Meditite.

    Just beat the 6th Gym.

    A weird spread, i know. the E4 were tough, especially Lorelei and Lance. I used all 4 pokemon during my E4.
    Lorelei kept killing my pokemon with aurora beam, but i got lucky and used rhydon's Rock slide all the way. Also Aerodactyl's Fire Blast.
    Bruno was easy with Aerodactyl's Fly and Kabutop's ice beam.
    Agatha was not bad with Golem's Earthquake and Rock throw. But Confuse Ray and Hypnosis gave me a hard time anyways.
    Lance was easy with Kabutop's Ice Beam, but of course the Gyarados was hell.
    Gary was a wimp. Pwnt 4 of his pokemon with Rhydon without a scratch. finally fell to Gyarados, but i easily won the rest with Kabutops.

    Moving on to Silver ^_^

  • Started silver. blahblahblah.
    I had to get the geodude from route 40 something near new bark town.
    there isnt even a decent rock type til sudowoodo.
    anyways. i just beat bugsy.
    but now im stuck on the rival match because of that damn bayleef, and his razor leaf. I really should have picked chikorita. *considering resetting the game*
    Geodude level 22
    Tackle
    Selfdestruct
    Rock Throw
    Magnitude
    He is NOT going to be on my team.
    He's just a placeholder until i get sudowoodo.

    update:
    Finally got my sudowoodo, but not before getting 3 badges.
    Next: Corsola. That would mean getting the good rod in olivine.....

    I finished off Red not long ago, the Elite 4 was quite easy.

    Lorelei - The easiest by far, Thunder from Magneton swept her whole team but Lapras, who easily went down to a few Double Kicks from Jolteon.

    Bruno - The second hardest, his fighting types all went down to a thunder or 2 from Raichu. His 2 Onixs had to be double kicked by Jolteon though.

    Agatha - Thunder dominated here again, I only got confused once, other than that they all went down quickly.

    Lance - The hardest, mainly due to Hyper Beam. Gyarados went down to a thunderpunch from Electabuzz. His Dragonair seemed to use Hyper Beam everytime, beating Electabuzz and Jolteon. Raichu finished the team off.

    Rival - I lied, he was the hardest. Pidgeot went down to a Thunderbolt from Electrode, Alakazam then started to sweep, beating Electrode and Magneton before being beaten by Raichu. Rhydon went down to a few double kicks, Exeggutor to a few body slams and Blastoise to a powerful thunder from Jolteon. Battle over.

    it took me less than a day to get from start to finish(emulating it at five times the regular speed :P)

    My rating on each of my pokemon:

    Raichu - Easily the most valuble member of the team. He saved me so many times with a body slam, or seismic toss. Finished off most of the gym leaders with ease.

    Electrode - The only things he has over Raichu is speed and explosion, although the latter came in handy quite a few times.

    Jolteon - As soon as he learned Thundershock, he became the main sweeper on my team. He's fast and powerful. He was my best option to take out the annoying rock types, cant take a hit to save his life though.

    Magneton - The most useless member of the team. Everything he could do someone else could do better. Hopefully the steel type will make him more valuble in Gold.

    Electabuzz - Another dominating sweeper, though not as valuble as Raichu or Jolteon, his ability to nit nearly everything for good damage was very helpful near the end.


    Time to start Gold :)

  • Starting tommorrow I'll begin these challenges starting with Fire of course, I am also assuming since I'm starting with fire I can use Charmander then correct?

    Don't worry I'll be doing more and since I go through the games fast and predict someone calling me a cheater I'll record all of it for them :p.

    *High Fives*

    Anyways, without access to my computer, I started a tiny tiny bit of Pearl, where I chose Chimchar. I think I've beat one or two trainers on the second route... xD

    I guess I'll go finish some of ruby now though. Updates later.

    I'll do Pearl with Water. Wanna try and do my Rain Dance team.
    You must do water in -all- generations. You can't just do Pearl.
    So, RBY, GSC, RSE, DPPt.

    Also, I made my way through the TEam Magma hideout, got my masterball, and finished them off. I then surfed to Mossdeep or whatever the heck it is >.>
    Going to work on the gym now.

    Also caught a Wailmer for Waterfall/Dive.
