Ultimate Monotype Challenge

[Narcissus Secret]

Sheesh people. Geeze. I didn't cheat. I do, however have my super dooper easy ways of training. But.. yeah I forgot about Kanto when I made that post... anyways.. I am almost done with it.

Yes you do... and he's going too fast, it'd be humanly impossible to go that fast and get your pokemon to level 72 without using hacks of some kind...

Yea... I've played 8+ Hours a day when I was doing my walkthroughs grinding, and my pokemon were no where near his levels, and he supposedly did it in 2 days...

I call fake.

. Try playing from 6 in the morn, til' you pass out around 5 in the morn , and wake at 6 in the morn, and do it all over again!

Yeah, unless you grind like an addict on Victory Road...Sounds kinda suspicious...Especially the Gengar...

Regarding ÄgàmêñÐmØÑ:
It may or may not be fake, heh. For one, since he is using Ghost-Types, he was allowed to trade one from another game early on, and this Pokemon would thus get boosted experience. But heh, if you really are cheating, the only one losing is you. Though yes, you're not finished Johto until you go through the Kanto battles and defeat Red.

Atleast someone believes me fully.

Actually, I suspect nothing. I believe that he traded his ghost types from Red/Blue.. However, that would suck all the challenge out, it's no fun with no challenge.
If he didn't though, then my guess is that he cloned an insanely high leveled Gastly he trained from the beginning with good IVs and evolved them, giving him a full party of impressive ghosts. The shiny may have been a lucky find while he was playing through, or a lucky trade where one of his R/B ghosts had the IVs a shiny would have in G/S/C.

Oh, and me? I actually should be doing Wattson right now! I'll get a blog up shortly.

I did trade a high level Gastly that was just a few(2-3) levels from being a Haunter.

I had the most trouble with Morty.. Falkner.. and Will.
Morty's pesky Gengar got rid of my strong pokemon. I got lucky and took 'em with a low level Gastly.

I had to use curse to take out Falkner.

Will tossed me aside a couple of times with his Psychic Pokemon.

yeah u can beat kanto in the blink of an eye iwth those pokemon. I envy you (joking) I beat Kanto in Silver with 4 Lv 50 pokemon and 1 level 57 (lol i had so much luck...)

Oh and btw do you know a good place for training in Hoenn? Cuz Im having a hard time training in Victory Road...

[Myzou]

Btw, I have to ask: WHY did you trade Gastly? XD

Considering Gastly are found on the route before Violet City during nighttime :P

[Narcissus Secret]

A good place for Hoenn? Hm.. I am not a Hoenn expert. I hate Hoenn in fact. I train in victory and stuff in just about all the generations.

@Myzou : Because, I didn't know that, I only played second Gen once, and didn't even bother catching pokemon. Anyways, if people are so flustered, and angry about it, then I'll start Johto over.

Pokemon Ruby "Blog" Part 8: The Quelling of the Serpents

After defeating the twins, it was time to move on, and try to find team magma. I went south of Mossdeep, and dived at the closest deep water, and shortly found their submarine. After exploring the cave, I stumbled upon a giant statue of an ancient pokemon... Maxie showed up and told me I was done meddling in his affairs.

After defeating him, he raised his orb up to the sky, and the statue came alive, but then it ran off after making the sun extremely hot. Steven showed up and told me of a place calld Sootopolis City...

As I got there, I headed to the north of town, as I thought I heard talking. Steven was there, and told me to enter the cave, and figure out what was causing the problems. I did, and at the end, the pokemon Groudon attacked me! So I fought back and defeated it~

I left and Steven thanked me, and I was ready for my 8th and final gym battle! Unfortunately, as none of my pokemon could surf, one of them would have to sit out of the battle...

It's been a while since I've done one of these, and this will probably be a fun way to swing back into it. Okay, I take the Ultimate Monotype Challenge!!! Sign me up for Grass please!

[Narcissus Secret]

I cursed my way to badge from Goldenron City. I felt great. I left the gym, and made my destination to the next city, Ecruteak City. I tried to make the gym challenge, but he was not there. I decided to take a break and watch the beautiful Kimono Girl's dance. It was amazing. I heard that there was a prixe if I could beat them. So, I challenged the pretty faces to a battle. They were magnificent. It was a sight to behold, all the different pokemon. I got hold of an HM3. I checked the gym again, there was no answer. A sickly old man told me he went to the burnt tower. So, I entered. I talked to him, and his friend for a minute before continuing. Then, I battled my rival. After crumpling him up, I fell through a hole! It was good though, I caught a glimpse of the three legendary dogs,Entei, Raikou, and Suicune! They were fascinating. I returned to the gym with Morty and made my challenge. After getting through his traps, I challenged him. It was a scare off! My ghosts happened to be scarier, and I won. I left with a badge, and headed towards Olivine City. The next gym would be tough, so I decided to train on the route. As a result, my Pokémon became tough. I was pumped, nothing could stand in my way!

I have beat the Hoenn Elite 4! Will upload videos when they're done converting XD (Will edit the post with them :P) Heracross ONE SHOTTED Metagross with a non crit Brick Break, I was like O.O Whoever told me he was available, I <3 You :P Considering he took out like 3/5 of the elite 4 alone, haha.

Pokemon Ruby "Blog" Part 9: The Bug Champion of Hoenn!

After gaining my final badge for Hoenn, it was time to fight through Victory Road. In order to do this, I had to carry Marill and Tropius with me (Tropius for Flash), and I went on. Inside, I fought through with ease, and finally reached the ending, but Wally showed up wanting to prove his strength.

With some help from Flit and Funster, Wally fell, and it was at the pokemon league I ended up!

I flew back to Mauville City for some training with my favorite group of people using the Trainers Eyes, and then I was ready to take on the league!

Oddly, they were somewhat pathetically easy, except Steven... haha.

Hello! I'd like to do ghost.. but can't trade!

So, i've decided to do normal on Blue

quick Q: would pidgey count as normal as its normal/flying?

[Alakazam17]

quick Q: would pidgey count as normal as its normal/flying?

Yes it would.

And congrats to all of you who've finished your current regions! I've updated the list accordingly.

As for myself, this week is full of tests and assignments, so I still won't have much time on my hands. However, once they're all handed in and written, I'll have tonnes of it. =D

[Jake♫]

Gah, I'm joining the Water part on Pokemon Red XD

[Myzou]

Holy crap, leveling Kricketot SUCKS. All it can do is Bide, and it isn't enough to kill, haha.

Super Smash Brothers Brawly

After exiting Rustboro gym, the man who was looking for Shroomish came out of the Devon Corporation building, chasing a man wearing red garb.
I decided to help him out, so I risked my life defeating a pooch again. Oh wait.. It would've been that weird Wingull that'd be killed, but of course, this a Pokemon game..

Anyway, after rescuing Peeko, Mr Briney searched through his heart and let me use his ship to get to Dewford town. I had an errand to give a letter to a man called Steven who has an odd love for rocks and fossils.
While in the Granite Cave, I caught Stallion the Makuhita, so I was well on my way party wise!
The letter was delivered, so it was time to take on Brawly after some training was done. During the training, Brealeg evolved into Breloom. Now I can finally use her in battles!

Brawly was overall fairly easy. He's harder than Roxanne but still easy enough to cause no problems.
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=WoxQ4ptZNWg

Shocking Experiences

So I was finally finished in Dewford, I asked Mr. Briney to give me a lift to Slateport, where I will explore the port city and make my way to Mauville where the 3rd gym leader recides. However, before that I had to pay a visit to Cpt. Stern to deliver some submarine parts, so I did just that. He turned out to be at a mueseum where Team Magma were invading! What luck! Now I have to go and destroy them don't I?

Well, I did just that, but who cares? For my efforts I got gratitude, but that's it. However, it was made up for when I met May in Route 106, she gave me an Itemfinder after I kicked her butt.
In Mauville, the first thing I saw was Wally. Wally was in the way, so I had to defeat his easy to defeat Ralts with Stallion, who evolved into Hariyama!
Now that I have a Hariyama, I have a decent tank!
Here's my battle with Wattson:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=WWEbC01TvD4

[Myzou]

Gah, Can I use Piplup to help level Kricketot to level 10, when he evolves and learns Fury Cutter? >_< Bide is not doing enough to kill even wild pokemon, let alone trainers :( It's been like 3 hours and he's still level 3 <_<

[Abbandon]

I think it was stated earlier in the thread that you can use starter to help level other pokes near the start.
Anyway, i reckon its fair to do that, as long as Piplup isn't used for gyms etc.

[Narcissus Secret]

Update. It is a small one, I don't have much time on Gen three. I am in Dewford cave, training a level 12 Sableye.

[Cascade'A Stupidity]

Right. I'm gonna ahve a piece'a this.

Starting at Yellow, I'm going to pick the bug type. I need a challenge

Well, I said yellow but it's caput, dead, gone. xD

I'll use blue.

If that's dead, I'm screwed.


Gaaaaaaah!

It's dead too!

Gotta go for Leaf Green then D=

Chapter 1: VS Brock
Starting off my adventure, I've gone with the name Rii-Chi. Naming my rival Blue (lazy to change) began my Poison type adventure in Kanto. Trying to leave Pallet Town, I met Prof. Oak who gave me a Pokemon. I chose Bulbasaur because it was part poison, naming it Venus Blue had decided to choose Charmander, and challenged me to fight.

Barely beating my rival, I headed off to Viridian City doing little training. Heading off to the PokeMart, I got a parcel for Prof. Oak. Giving the package to the address person, Blue and I recieved a Pokedex which stores data.

Heading into the Viridian Forest and obtaining a Weedle, I did some serious training trying to get them to a decent level, Weedle evolved all the way to a Beedrill. Venus had learned Vine Whip which was the way to defeat Brock with a clean sweep.

The Battle VS Brock

Chapter 2: VS Misty
After obtaining my Boulderbadge, I headed off to find myself a Zubat in Mt. Moon, along the way, Venus evolved into an Iyvsaur, heading towards a Venusaur.

Entering Mt. Moon after healing, a was lucky enough to find a level 9 Zubat when I first entered. Despite that, I still had to train it until it learned Bite. Defeating trainers and grunts, I recieved a Helix Fossil for myself.

When I reached Cerulean City, I went to fight Blue for some experience and to find an Oddish up ahead. After catching the Oddish, it leveled up pretty quickly after several trainers. Reaching Bill's house and turning him back human again, I recieved an S.S. Anne ticket.

Coming by the Cerulean to train a little, I headed off to the gym. Clearing the trainers without an effort, I challenged Misty to win a badge. The overall battle was easy, but Misty's Starmie put up a nice fight.
