The Duo-Species Challenge II

Silver

Episode 1
I got a lot covered already. Dunsparce was fairly easy to catch, it took only about five minutes.

• Chose Totodile as starter.
• Caught Cedric the Dunsparce in the Dark Cave.
• The Sprout Tower wasn't too difficult.
• Defeated Falkner.
• I thought the Union Cave would be the first really difficult place, but Rage worked surprisingly well and I got through it reasonably fast.
• Cleared the Slowpoke Well and sent Team Rocket flying off again.
• Defeated Bugsy and Silver.
• Got through Ilex Forest.
• Caught Sparkweed the Sunkern in the National Park.
• Defeated Whitney and scared Sudowoodo away.
• Beat Silver at the Burnt Tower.
• Defeated Morty.

Team:

Sparkweed the Sunkern (M) @ Lv. 25
Absorb
Growth
Mega Drain
Sunny Day

Cedric the Dunsparce (M) @ Lv. 31
Rage
Pursuit
Glare
Screech

Totodile
HM Slave
Cut
Surf

Episode 2
This run is a lot easier than I thought. Sunkern is a pain, but Dunsparce is fairly useful.

• Traveled to Olivine City and went to the Lighthouse.
• Surfed my way to Cianwood City (the third most boring part).
• Defeated Chuck.
• Got Ampharos' medicine and brought it back to the Lighthouse.
• Defeated Jasmine.
• Traveled through Ecruteak and went on to Mahogany Town.
• Defeated the Red Gyarados at the Lake of Rage.
• Met Lance and started the second most boring part: defeating Team Rocket in Mahogany.
• Team Rocket escaped and I defeated Pryce.
• Prof. Elm called, went to Goldenrod to do the most boring part: defeating Team Rocket again.
• Went through the Ice Path after that and arrived in Blackthorn City.
• I thought Clair would be the most difficult gym leader in this run, but she proved me wrong, she was almost the easiest one.

The only thing left to do is to go to Dragon's Den to get my badge and then it's Victory Road Time!

Team:

Sparkweed the Sunkern (M) @ Lv. 46
Sludge Bomb
Giga Drain

Update for Ultimate Duo Challenge.

Okay, here we go, time for Johto.

Update #1 on SoulSilver.

Name: Jay
Starter: Cyndaquil
Rival: Silver

• After the beginning stuff, I hacked in a Surkit egg, that was shiny, and knew Hydro Pump and Signal Beam as egg moves :).
• After she hatched I named her Rain.
• Hydro Pump really helped Rain defeat Falkner despite the type disadvantage.
• After I reached Union Cave, I realized that Sandshrew is only in HeartGold, so I hacked one in and named him Spike.
• Made through the cave to Azelea Town and helped Kurt save the Slowpoke.
• Took on Bugsy and won thanks to Spike's Rock Tomb.
• Beat Silver and went through Ilex Forest to Goldenrod, where I beat a bunch of trainers.
• While doing so, Rain and Spike both evolved!
• Whitney was pretty easy although Spike did faint to Miltank's flinching Stomps.
• Continued north to Ecruteak City, where I got the Surf and Strength HMs and released the beasts in Burned Tower.
• Took on the gym. Morty's Gengar was tough, but Rain was able to win mostly with Hydro Pump.
• Went down to Olivine and scaled the Lighthouse, then Surfed across the sea to Cianwood City.
• Beat Eusine and Chuck over there, both with relative ease.
• Flew back to Olivine and healed Amphy, then beat Jasmine easily with Spike's Dig.
• Right now I am saved in the Goldenrod Game Corner trying to get Coins for Ice Beam.

I've decided to do this challenge on my Black Version, whith two Pokemon I've always been interested in using: Volbeat and Illumise. I can't hack, so I will have to trade over eggs as soon as I can (which is after the first gym).

Name: deku / deku
Version: Pokemon Black Version
Pokemon: Volbeat / Illumise

Right now I'm just rushing through the opening and first badge so I can go ahead and start this challenge!

Sign Up

Name: drunk ¬_¬
Version: Ruby (ROM)
Pokemon: Pinsir / Heracross

I plan on hacking both Pokémon to my game early on, since I'd rather not have to wait until I reach the Safari Zone to get the second one.
If, however, you'd prefer to have me wait, I'll just hack Heracross Pinsir first.

Started new game.

Named character SHINO (as in the Naruto character)


Obtained a Mudkip, named him SURF SLAVE
→ don't look at me like that ¬_¬

Hacked wild Pinsir and a Master Ball; named him KIMURA
→ damn bastards are impossible to catch with Poké Balls! ;~;
Kimura:
Party:

"

The morning sun was bright and vivid. However, I had no idea of it, since my mom somehow convinced me to travel all the way to Littleroot Town in the back of our moving truck…
bad idea. By the time we reached our new home, my back and my ass were killing. Thankfully though, the torture was over.

Never did I expect my life in Hoenn to be turned upside down so quickly, however.

Our home was almost completely furnished when we got home, but the mover Machoke were still (obviously) working on getting our stuff in the house, and my mom knew that she'd have to spend the whole day making sure everything was perfect. Therefore, she decided to send me to our neighbor's house, to offer them some of my mom's home-baked goodies.

I always considered my mom a generous person, but when I walked in our neighbors' house, and the lady asked me to introduce myself to her daughter… in her room! I realized she might be in for some tough competition. Sure enough, her father ended up being Professor Birch, and after I saved him from a rather, embarrassing situation he asked me not to speak of to anyone… EVER!

Well, I guess I became a trainer…

Thus I decided to go and visit my father, accompanied my new Pokémon: Surf Slave. Little did I know that something, somewhere, was directly beginning to influence my path. For when I went back home for a Potion I knew I'd left in my PC, I found something else… something that shouldn't have been there…

Not thinking twice about it, I just grabbed the Master Ball, assuming that my luck must have reversed since I came to Hoenn… and sure enough, as soon as I stepped out of my little town, I stumbled upon something ridiculously out of place for Hoenn: a Pinsir swarm!​

Taking da challenge.

Username: Porygon Z (Matthew)
Game: Heart Gold
Team: Espeon and Kingler

I'll be hacking so I can get an Eevee and a Krabby in Route 29.

Went through Rustboro Forest without any problems…

Surf Slave gained two levels in the double battle at the bridge… >_>

Went straight to Route 116 to save Peecko and gain much-needed levels for Kimura; then realized I need the badge first to do that… /facepalm'd.

Beat Roxanne on my first run
→ I'm actually pretty surprised Pinsir didn't get OHKOd by Rock Tomb
Shino vs Roxanne
Caught a female Nincada, named her CUT SLAVE
→ so eloquent…

Saved Peeko and obtained Devon Goods, PokéNav and HM01

Gave Steven his stuff

Went to Slateport caught Heracross, named TAKAMURA
Takamura:
Beat people up before proceeding to beat Team Magma up (in the museum, of course)

Passed the Trick Room, obtained Rare Candy

Challenged and beat Brawly (:
(I will change my emulator's size so the pictures aren't so big from now on)

Name: Ivy
Version: Platinum
Pokemon: Absol and Gardevoir
As soon as I can I will hack in low-level forms (ralts) of them.

Got the Fog Badge, now exploring Surf areas.

Kingler @ Mystic Water
Lv. 36
- Surf
- Rock Tomb
- Strength
- Swords Dance

Espeon Lv. 36 @ Quick Claw
- Return
- Bite
- Psybeam
- Shadow Ball

Alright, I beat the first gym!
I have to say though, Roark was tough. His entire team was able to one-shot Ralts pretty easily, and Absol was of no use with only normal-type moves. Luckily I was able to level up Ralts to about 19, where she could easily one-shot all of his pokes before they could kill her. XD

Absol Level 18 @ Nothing
-Quick Attack
-Feint
-Leer
-Razor Wind

Kirlia Level 20 @ Nothing
-Confusion
-Lucky Chant
-Double Team
-Teleport (lol)

Okay, since my sign up I have made it to Castelia City. I rushed through the first gym so I could trade over eggs of Volbeat and Illumise. Once the eggs hatched I named Volbeat Phil and Illumise Claire. After that I Audino trained both of them to level 21(so Phil could learn Tail Glow). Then I moved on with the game and the story and defeated Lenora, earning my second Gym Badge. I went ahead and made my way through Pinwheel Forest so that I could travel across Skyarrow Bridge to reach Castelia City. Here is my team at this point:


Phil the Volbeat
Male | Bold | Swarm | Lv. 24
- Tail Glow
- Baton Pass
- Brick Break
- Hidden Power (Flying)


Claire the Illumise
Female | Modest | Tinted Lens | Lv. 24
- Bug Buzz
- Hidden Power (Ground)
- Shadow Ball
- Thunderbolt

Also, I figured that everyone here should know that I RNG bred these two on my White version for the HP types, natures, and ability. I also bred some egg moves on these two, such as the TM moves and Baton Pass.

Headed back to Slateport City before making my way to Muville City

Faced and beat May on the way there; received the ITEMFINDER
Reached Mauville City, received HM06 and ACRO BIKE

OHKO'd Wally's Ralts, then beat everyone else in a two mile radius before challenging Watson's Gym
Taught Surf Slave how to Rock Smash and went back to Verdanturf Town to help Wally's cousin's boyfriend across the Verdanturf Tunnel; received HM04 for my efforts.

Taught STRENGTH to both KIMURA and TAKAMURA… I still haven't figured out why :(

Headed up to the ash place and got a Blue Flute; beat trainers, you know how it goes

Still on my way for the METEORITE

Completely gave up on trying to write cool stuff about this… I'm not going to update that often anyways… /shrugs

That's the challenge halfway done. Now all I've got to do is defeat the Kanto Gyms and Red.

Okay, since my last update I've made it through the fifth gym badge. I did all of the events in Castelia City, battled Burgh, then moved on to Route 4 and the Desert Resort. After completing those routes, I went to Nimbasa City and did everything I needed to do there before the Gym. Before taking on Elesa I went ahead and ground my team up to Lv 35 so I would struggle top much with her two flying type Emolga. After I beat her, I went on to Driftveil, defeated Team Plasma, and defeated Clay to earn my fifth gym badge. I went ahead and made my way through the end of Route 6 and saved at the entrance to Chargestone Cave. My team right now:

Phil / Lv39 / Tail Glow, Baton Pass, Brick Break, Hidden Power (Flying)
