    Yeps but worth it, I did not ID abuse though since I was told it is impossible to do on emerald retail cart.
    It is? I didn't know that. I figured since you can on RS you could on Emerald. x]

  • OK, a poll has been added. Vote for bringing back challenges or not.

    Please, give reasons for your opinion. Any suggestion how we could improve the thread and/or challenges are very, very welcome.

    The poll expires after a week from now, so be sure to vote ASAP. :)

    Edit: Latest RNG. First with my new ID/SID in my new French Black :D
    I am crazy... I had to save the game 117 times to get that pig. took me about half an hour but was worth it :)

    We could always repeat some of the first challenges? Some people didn't get to do them.

    I would love to have challenges back! A lot of times I don't really have anything to RNG just because I don't know what to RNG or I don't need to RNG anything, but with challenges I would at least have some idea of what I could RNG for fun. My problem with not knowing what to RNG will become especially apparent soon, with my schedule picking back up very soon. I won't have much time to RNG, and it would be nice to have a challenge to help me decide what I should RNG, as opposed to spending whatever free time I have just to decide what to RNG next.

    I think it's a great idea and I already have how to use those past challenges. I'll talk about it with Blade and Mac :)

    Thanks for your opinion, Deku. I agree with you because I have exactly the same problem everytime I want to RNG something non-specific and challenges helped me with that too.

    I voted because SOMEONE (*twitch*) told me to vote. If I actually did rng, I'd probably participate but alas.
    @Gonzo
    Maybe we could change the challenges to be for all breeders instead of just RNG breeders. :O

  • One challenge a month makes more sense to me. Once every two weeks at the absolute max. Perhaps hold the challenge for the first three full weeks and let the other days be downtime. It would help keep the challenges fresh. I've seen many times where people just haven't had the time to RNG, and now that school has started back for many this will be an even more frequent occurrence. Having them last longer would allow for more people to participate.

    Also, perhaps make more polls for what the next challenge should be a few days before it is announced. If everyone helps pick the challenge instead of just one person, it would be easier for more people to participate since they'd have more of an interest.

    Yes! Definitely bring the challenges back. I don't care how you do it just bring them back! I had just learned how to RNG when the challenges were ended. :( I agree with Wiilio's idea. Once a month will give everyone enough time to complete their RNGs and polls to choose the next challenge would keep the interest in the challenges going. I really do miss the challenges since I can RNG now and I couldn't before when there was challenges.

    Now for my latest RNG that I've done. Thanks to TheGr8, Gonz0, and Mac, I am now battling VGC style since "Singles are for the weak". I needed one more mon to complete my team and so I decided to RNG it myself. Enjoy my first RNG'd mon for doubles:

    ♠ The Art of RNG ♠ | RNG Guides [OLD]

    30/30/30/30/30/31

    A huge thanks to Mia for doing the BW2 Tutor for me. This Salamence wouldn't have been possible without her help. :)

  • That's a very nice Salamence there EV!
    I sincerely hope that this "singles is for the weak" business is a joke. Seriously.

    I'm making an Ubers team that I'll never use because no one battles Ubers, but I've always wanted to get into it so I figured I'd just get a team and learn if/when the opportunity arises.

    So these are the breedable members:

    ♠ The Art of RNG ♠ | RNG Guides [OLD]

    Larvitar
    Nature: Adamant
    31/31/31/x/31/31
    Egg moves: Pursuit, Stealth Rock

    ♠ The Art of RNG ♠ | RNG Guides [OLD]

    Ferroseed
    Nature: Sassy
    31/31/31/x/31/x
    Egg moves: Leech Seed

    And two new ones for me:

    ♠ The Art of RNG ♠ | RNG Guides [OLD]

    Gligar
    Ability: Poison Heal
    Nature: Impish
    31/31/31/x/31/31

    ♠ The Art of RNG ♠ | RNG Guides [OLD]

    Drilbur
    Ability: Sand Rush
    Nature: Adamant
    31/31/31/x/31/31

    Future members that will be RNG'd as soon as possible:

  • A shiny Virizion NOT in a Heal Ball? WHAT IS THIS?

    Refreshing. That's what it is. Good job mia.

    Just got this lil' gemstone:

    ♠ The Art of RNG ♠ | RNG Guides [OLD]

    Keldeo
    Nature: Timid
    31/2/30/31/31/31
    Calm Mind / Surf / Focus Blast / Hidden Power (Ice 70)​

    I think I will either go Hydro Pump / Focus Blast or Surf / Secret Sword as long as I'm not using it competitively. All power or all accuracy. Meh meh meh.

    Either way, I love this thing :D
