Ultimate Monotype Challenge

Well you have Ice Beam, Earthquake, Rock Slide, and Surf. I'd say you're good to go.

I think you should teach them a move thats good against agatha, like psychic, since she is using poison and ghost but maybe earthquake will be ok since her Gengar don't have levitate.

The only person who can learn that is Wranthor, so should I take over Body Slam or Hypnosis?
Nevermind, I took over Body Slam. Sleep on cue is too handy compared to a small chance at paralysis; in fact, I might change Hypnosis to Thunder Wave if it can. (It can't.)

Anyway, I'm getting started now, I'll upload all my stuff to my youtube so keep checking up on it. Wish me luck!




Newsflash:
I lost against my rival!
AGGH!
His Alakazam was the one that destroyed me in the end, he KO'd EVERY pokemon of mine in ONE hit. I tried stalling it, but all I received was a never ending barrage of Psychic. I'm serious, I don't think my rival's PP ever runs out.

Because of this epic loss, I decided to train, train train. Doesn't this sound like a Rocky movie?

Hey there its me again! I just beat the celadon game corner underground and I save mr fugi. Now i'm headed to the bike path and heading towards Fuschia city. I have 4 badges and have thesel pokemon still... (I will be making a video when i'm at the elite 4) ;]

I just recevied surf from the guy in the safari, and caught a venomoth over there! Also, I fished Tentacool and I'm trying to evolve it.

BONITA lvl 40

KIRBY/lvl 40

NOYING/lvl 43
(what's wrong with venusuaur back sprite?)
BULBAZINE/lvl 40

NOMISH/ lvl 40
What do you think about my team, should I replace some of them when Muck and Weezing will be available?

Aiyh, I'm so sorry! *adds you to the list right away* :D

And that is exactly how I always used to battle Brock, regardless of whether I had a monotype team or not. XD Pidgey's Sand Attack just seemed to be the best way of outsmarting those guys. ^_^

Thanks~ :3 Hehe, I just usually trust the good old type advantage and just attack with full power. :P

Okay, continuing my Normal-type journey! I had planned to use Jigglypuff in my team, not Clefairy (one pink fluffy creature is enought), but after doing some quick research over the internet I changed my mind. Clefairy line just has better stats, better moves, and cuter sprites in R/B. ;) So bye to Jiggly~ I contunued through Mount Moon while searching for Clefairy. When I found Water Gun TM, I taught the move to Rattata, which helped me a lot with all those Geodudes. Eventually caught Clefairy and go through the cave.

I beat my rival again (Pidgey evolved!), defeated all trainers before Bill's house and visited Bill. Just before I was about to challenge Misty, all my pokemon grew to level 20, which means that both Rattata and Spearow evolved! Misty's Staryu was no mach against my Fearow, but Starmie surprised with its strong Bubblebeam, which caused my Pidgeotto and Clefairy to faint. But Fearow got the job done again. ^^ After defeating the Rocket I taught Dig to Raticate.

After defeating all trainers on S.S. Anne I encountered Blue again. He was surprisingly weak this time! (If he has over 40 pokemon, why not use some of them to make his team stronger...?) Well, cured the Captain (I still don't understand how rubbing shoulders helps a seasick person...) and got HM Cut. I taught Cut to Charmander, went through Diglett's cave, caught a Weedle so I had 10 pokemon and got HM05, Flash.

Now it's back to Vermilion City, challenging some more trainers and defeating Lt. Surge!

I was just wondering. In GSC, do we have to beat only the gym leaders of Johto and the Elite Four, or also the gym leaders of Kanto?

hey i uploaded the two incredibly-easy-battles against Gary and Lt. Surge

"Blog" 6: Sabrina... The Teenage Witch (I so stole that :P)

(As these next gyms take place in quick succession, gonna do all 3 now.)

After Defeating Koga, I taught Funster the Toxic TM that was given to me, and it was time to fully explore Fuschia City, and the Safari Zone~ After an annoying run through there, I finally found the Skull Bash TM, which I taught to Spitfire, I also recovered some Gold Teeth I turned in to obtain the HM for Strength, in which I taught to Clamps.

I finally reached Saffron City, and got the Psychic TM from Mr. Psychic, and promptly taught it to Celest. I then went into a place I thought was a gym, but instead, they offered me a fighting pokemon for winning, which I turned down.

I then went into the Silph Co. and noticed it was occupied by Rockets... which meant it was time to go to work! I found a Take Down TM inside, and decided that Skull Bash was useless, and replaced it on Spitfire. When I entered one portal, my rival was waiting for some reason... weird. I battled him and won, but not before he knocked out Spitfire. I continued on in search for the cause of Team Rocket being here.

A nice man on the floor my rival was on gave me a Lapras, whom I would teach Surf to and use as my HM slave, in place of the creepy Psyduck I caught in the Safari Zone. I found a TM for Swords Dance, and taught it to Clamps, finally replacing the move I consider to be cheating, Guillotine. At the top, I found the chairman of the company being harassed by that sleezeball Giovanni. After beating him, the chairman gave me a Master Ball... something I'll never need to use. Now it was time to go beat up Sabrina for my 6th badge.

"Blog" 7: The Bane of Blaine

After beating Sabrina, it was time to surf down to Cinnibar Island on my Lapras, which involved first getting TO Cinnibar, which was not an easy task. I chose to backtrack to Fuschia city and surf south of there. After fighting through the Seafoam Islands, I was closer to Cinnibar.

I arrived in Cinnabar only to find the Gym Locked... Naturally, I went into the nearest building hoping to find the Gym Leader, and found myself in the Pokemon Mansion. After fighting numerous Burglars, I found a TM that contained Solar Beam. Excited, I taught it to Celest, replacing the Razor Wind skill I had originally given her. Nearby, I found the Key to the gym.

Inside, I answered some weird quizzes, and soon I was face to face with the 7th gym leader. As he was a master of fire Pokemon, I was worried that he'd roast my bugs.

"Blog" Part 8: Bringing Giovanni to the Ground

After my victory over Blaine, only 1 gym leader remained, and he was near home! Off to Viridian City I went~ After an annoying 20 minutes, I reached the gym, and fought the trainers inside. I arrived at Giovanni, and despite beating him twice already, he insisted that we fight once more for the badge. So we did.
