Here's the post about Ruby.

  • Picked the male character, and soloed with Treecko until I reached Dewford. In Granite Cave, I caught a Mawile that I named Cruncher.
  • Avoided Brawly's gym since Mawile's weak to Fighting. Instead, I went onwards to defeat other gyms. After battling Flannery, I went to the desert and caught a Baltoy that I named Zero.
  • Zero wasn't that useful in the beginning, so I just gave it the Exp. Share and let Cruncher do all the work until Zero evolved.
  • After easily beating Norman and Winona, I caught the final member of my team, Spooks the Duskull. She was just like Zero, not that useful until she evolved.
  • With all of Hoenn's gyms down, I traversed onto Victory Road and the Pokémon League.
  • The Pokémon League was honestly harder than I expected, but my team pulled it all the way through, and I became the champion of Hoenn!

Update for Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Gray).

Time to continue my gray monocolor ultimate on to the Sinnoh region.

Update #1 on Pearl.

Name: Gray
Starter: Turtwig
Rival: Barry
  • Chose Turtwig for HM slave purposes, and caught my first Pokemon, Muscle the Machop, above Oreburgh City.
  • Roark was easy thanks to Low Kick and Karate Chop.
  • Moved on to Florama Town, and after a couple misses with the Honey trees, I finally got Sandy the Burmy to show up.
  • Beat Mars in the Valley Windworks and continued north to Eterna Forest.
  • Went through the forest with Cheryl, training Sandy up.
  • Arrived in Eterna City, and after beating the trainers to the east, Sandy evolved into Wormadam!
  • Took on Gardenia, who was fairy difficult, but Sandy pulled it out in the end thanks to Hidden Power Fire.
  • Got the Explorer Kit, and after a ton of mining, I dug up a Heat Rock (!), a Hard Stone, and finally, an Armor Fossil!
  • Beat up Team Galactic and Jupiter in the TG Eterna Building.
  • Got the Bike, and cycled down to Oreburgh City, where I revived Wally the Shieldon!
  • Explored Wayward Cave and rescued Mira, then headed to Hearthome City, where I beat Barry.
  • On my way to Solaceon Town, Muscle evolved into Machoke!
  • Explored the ruins and climbed the tower to get Strength.
  • Saved on Route 215.

During the last week, I've played through Diamond and completed it.

  • Chose Turtwig for HM and early-game purposes. I soloed with him until I reached Eterna Forest, where I caught Blackout the Murkrow.
  • Blackout was great against Gardenia, and the three gym leaders after her weren't difficult either. But Byron was challenging, since I had deleted Night Shade, thinking that it wouldn't come in handy anymore. So I was stuck with Flying- and Dark-type moves, and had to stall him with Hyper Potions.
  • After Byron, I went to catch a Sneasel, which was a bit tricky, but it eventually worked. Named it SantaClaws.
  • When Candice was taken down, I went to Team Galactic's HQ in Veilstone to raid it. When I was done and ready to go to Mt. Coronet, I realized that a boy in Eterna City will offer a Chatot for a Buizel. So I went and caught a Buizel to trade it, and I got Charap the Chatot that completed my team.
  • I took on the Galactic grunts in Mt. Coronet, and also Mars, Jupiter and Cyrus. Since my team couldn't really handle Steel-types well, I just threw my Master Ball at Dialga.
  • Volkner was not too tough, but since I had two Flying-types, SantaClaws pretty much had to do all the work.
  • The Elite Four was easy. I was a bit worried about Bertha, since all of my Pokémon were weak to Rock. I managed to pull it through though.
  • Cynthia on the other hand, was not easy. It was quite tense, like when SantaClaws barely survived a Giga Impact from Garchomp, and then took it out with an Avalanche.
  • After many Hyper Potions and Revives, Cynthia finally went down!

Team:
Spr_4d_430.png

Blackout the Honchkrow, Lv 59 (♂)
Item: Dread Plate
Fly, Sucker Punch, Dark Pulse, Wing Attack

Spr_4d_461_m.png

SantaClaws the Weavile, Lv 59 (♂)
Item: Icicle Plate
Night Slash, Slash, Brick Break, Avalanche (since Weavile usually gets Night Slash at Lv 35, I had to get a Heart Scale for it, since Sneasel doesn't learn it. I obtained one Underground.)

Charap the Chatot, Lv 59 (♀)
Item: Sky Plate
Chatter, Hyper Voice, Roost, Sing

Ultimate: Yes :3 (hopefully)

Oh my god it took forever to deicde the color D: Literally like, a few hours. At first I had it narrowed down to five (Yellow, Red, Blue, Purple, Brown), then three (Yellow, Red, Brown) at which point I wrote down every Pokemone available in each color for each gen. And then that let me get rid of Yellow....so it was between Red and Brown. And finally after formulating teams for all ten situations, I made the choice xD So hopefully this all pulls through so all my hard work wasn't a waste~

Alright, a bit of an update I guess....I haven't been marking anything down since usually when I play I'm nto online ._. But so far a breif summary:
~Started game, named player RED
~Chose Charmander :3 Named him King
~Beat Rival (Named Green)
~Did all the beginning stuff, training Charmander
~King evolved into a Charmeleon just in time for the battle with Brock
~Kicked Brock's but with a few Metal Claws (I think thats what the move is :P)
~Went through Mt. Moon, beat Green again, cleared Nugget Bridge
~Finally got to catch another member: Oddish :3
~Trained up Oddish until it evolved into a Gloom
~Easily beat Misty with my new Gloom 8D
~Went down, did S.S Anne, beat Green again just as easily
~Taught Charmeleon 'Dig' and then murdered Lt. Surge
~Went up and caught a Voltorb
~Trained Voltorb on all the trainers I had skipped up to Rock Tunnel
~Stumbled around Rock Tunnel til i finally came out
~Quickly cut through Lavender Town and over to Celadon where I purchased a Leaf Stone and evolved Gloom into Vileplume :3

And that's where I'm at...

Shoot, no time to put my team in right now...it's just Vileplum, Charmeleon, and Voltorb :3 I'll do a proper team update next time~

I've continued my Ultimate Black Challenge on Black, and made it pretty far into the main game.

> Picked Snivy as my starter, whom I used to defeat the first gym. After that, I caught a Blitzle that I named Zepari.
> Zepari couldn't handle Lenora well, so I trained it up to the level where it evolved. With my newly-evolved Pokémon, I managed to beat Lenora.
> After Burgh was defeated, I caught my second team member, Sigilyph. I named it Gephalia.
> I thought Elesa was going to be trouble for me, but with Zepari's ability Motor Drive and its move Flame Charge, it worked out very well. Clay did give me some trouble though, mainly with critical hits.
> When Clay was defeated, I went to the Chargestone Cave. When I got out, I went to the Celestial Tower to catch a Litwick. When I did, I named it Flamare.
> Saved on Route 7.


Team:
Spr_5b_523.png

Zepari the Zebstrika, Lv 40 (♂)

  • Back in Snowpoint City, I took on the gym and beat Candice with Crusher and Nyan.
  • Time to eliminate Team Galactic...so I did that, beating Cyrus twice.
