"Geronimo"

I had actually started this a while ago, using an emulator on my phone, I was doing the Ultimate Challenge with Vaporeon, Ampharos, and Arcanine. I was browsing games on my phone the other day and came across my save file on my Crystal game.

I don't know if this will count, as I don't have my screenshot to prove it, since I cant screenshot on my phone with that, but I defeated Red tonight, with my level 50 Arcanine, level 49 Ampharos, and level 49 Vaporeon.

It took Vaporeon absorbing ALL of Espeon's psychics, Snorlax's Body slams, and Snorlax's snores. Once I got to Charizard/Blastoise/Venusaur, it was all over but the crying. Used probably close to 30 Hyper Potions and 15 full restores.

Gonna move on to Fire Red now.

So, I guess I should do an official sign up:

Name: Darkhelmet
Game: Ultimate (Crystal just completed, Fire Red next)
Team: Ampharos, Vaporeon, and Arcanine

Gary has been defeated in Fire Red! God the fast forward button on VisualBoyAdvance makes these runs so fast, I really should stop abusing it lol 700% speed is nothing to joke with. In a matter of 3 hours, I went from finishing the Pokemon Tower in Lavender, to League Champion

Can't post links and images until I've made more posts, will edit them in when I get there.

Final Team vs Champion Gary:

Sheep-eh, Male Naughty Amphoros level 50
Ability: Static
Thunderpunch
Thunder Wave
Brick Break
Strength

ButtStalyn (Hurray for Borderlands 2), Male Quiet Vaporeon level 53
Ability: Water Absorb
Acid Armor
Aurora Beam
Surf
Bite

Prof Barks, Male Naive Arcanine level 51
Ability: Intimidate
Bite
Extremespeed
Flamethrower
Dig

Thing I learned, as much as I love Vaporeon, I've never had to seriously use it as a tank, and good lord, can Vaporeon tank. With acid armor, he was taking attacks from pokemon 5 levels above him for 15 damage to his 200+ HP.
