Challenges on Motorcycles!! [CI&D]

[myrrhman]

Well, I am going to be probs going on vacation with my friends, and seeing them some, but the sheer fact that i can stay up as late as i want because i won't have school/don't ever have to do any homework means i'll be completing a lot of them. I think I'll shoot for one challenge a day, and then the rest of the day stay off the computer.

Anyways, I'm having fun playing through Black with a Poison/Bug Duotype challenge. I think I want to do a Grass monotype, or even a Water monotype next :D

[InfernoRogue]

I think I want to do something really awesome sounding. I want to defeat R/B/Y with all 151 original Pokemon in solo challenges. :DDD

I was actually, and this will sound CRAZY, considering...making the Hall of Fame...with every Pokemon. I would probably do generations I-IV on HeartGold though, because I really, really hate migrating/transferring to the next gen. idk why. But I'm not even done with the Gen V version of this, so WHY am I considering the others? I don't even know.

And I worked it out, I would divide it by generations. So in gen I, I would use Scyther, Electabuzz, etc because in gen I, they didn't evolve. But in gen IV (and well, any other gen with a baby Pokemon) I would use the baby Pokemon, provided that it's evolution isn't also in that generation. Basically, I would be treating it as if it didn't evolve. (example would be using Chimecho in gen III, since it had no baby yet, but when I move on to gen IV, I would use Chingling, since it was introduced in gen IV. Riolu is also a baby, but it's evolution, Lucario, was introduced in gen IV, so I would go with Lucario, not Riolu.) This doesn't even make sense to anyone, I'm sure. :(

That would be a cool challenge. If I did it I'd do it on an emulator so I could screencap it. But then I wouldn't have access to every Pokemon d.d Maybe in the thread everyone challenging can just have one post to keep updates on using a spoiler and a list of all Pokemon and just mark through them when you are done. Also, a rule could be not to just use one level 100 uber to beat the E4 a billion times until you are done. I'd probably just go in order, so my first team would be Bulbasaur, Ivysaur, Venusaur, Charmander, Charmeleon, and Charizard.

I could not see myself having that much patience to do that challenge. On another note seeing how I completed my Pokemon White's National Dex, I'll finish my current challenge and start another.

[InfernoRogue]

Syd always ends up double posting D:

I'm trying to finish both my remaining Dewgong solos by the end of the week so I can start other challenges. Playing through the 4th gen...bleh.

[Sydian]

I double post because this is the forum I mod, so because of that, I override the rule that doesn't allow posts until after 45 seconds have passed.

And well, when I say "every Pokemon" I meant final evos, with the exception of baby Pokemon and Pokemon that didn't get evos til later. And I ain't making a thread for that because updates would be so slow, it'd get inactive. >.< It's better to do it as a personal challenge, and just blog it on here, Tumblr, etc.

Congrats on 10,000 posts! But anyways, I can see why it wouldn't be in a thread. And I'm such a completionist that I would have to use all 600-someodd Pokemon. (I was about to put 493...)

[jespoke]

We could make a thread for all the "Personal challenges" It would be interesting to see how things go in multiple unique challenges

By the way: Do i get the Single monotype master title, if i beat all types on Leaf Green (Needs a reason to do a run on an emulator)

I sorta like that idea. There are lots of times that people make a post in here saying "this is a cool idea" but it has kinks in it. They should do it first by themselves and they could post it on the personal challenge, then if people see them doing that and say "HAY THAT LOOKS KEWL" then it could transform into its own thread. Also ambitious people like myself could have like 15 spoilers or something, each with its own type of challenge.

Also yes, if you beat all 15-17 types on FR/LG then you will be awarded the Sungle Monotype Master title.

[Sydian]

I think a thread for recording all that would just get cluttery though, since people would be doing different things. idk, I say just post it to Tumblr, lj, or something. :( It would be an odd thread to keep track of.

Edit: Oh God I didn't double post!!

[InfernoRogue]

I was always secretly wishing for some sort of thread where there would be a list of people in the first post, and it would have a spoiler for each that shows which challenges they have completed, or something. Although I'm sure that this has been talked about before.

[vaporeon7]

I would like that also. But then there would be so many names. Maybe you have to do a certain amount of challenges before you can have your name on the list. I just post what challenges I've done in my About Me section of my profile.

This. Chances are, people aren't going to be wondering "oh hey, I wonder what challenges this one random person has done, if any!". They're going to be wondering, "oh hey, I wonder what all challenges this person who is here all the time has done." In order for a person to want to look someone up in this "index" if it was made, they would have to be pretty familiar on the challenge board. I'd say keep the number of challenges needed pretty low, like 3-5. I don't think too terribly many people have done that many challenges. Plus, for some of us, one little sig just is not enough space for all of our accomplishments!

You'll notice my sig has "Select" completed challenges - I've done too many, although some of them have died
I also like my solo userbars lol

My About Me section is huge because of all of my challenges in there. Huge. I do agree with what you two have said, though. It would be kinda pointless if someone came here, did one challenge, and never came back again. I'm sure that's happened before, too.
Heck, maybe someone could receive an award at the end of the year or something for 'most challenges completed' or something? Of course, if that were to happen, we should probably only count challenges done that year, otherwise the same person might win every year.

[myrrhman]

That would be a cool idea. But you better hurry, jd and I are running out of monotypes...

IDK if I can catch up to you two at this point, especially with school being quite demanding lately.
But if anything, maybe I could get ahead of you guys on solo challenges? ;)

[jespoke]

I like the idea of the "greatest challengers" list where the persons who have done the most challenges are mentioned with the challenges they have done. Maybe even in order of how many challenges they have done.
How do you like that?

[mondays suck]

Nah, I don't like it. Because it would mean me constantly falling down due to being lazy. :D

[11wildy]

how about the random challenge challenge. You get assigned a random challenge by the owner of the thread. You could say if you want monotype, or anything and even whether you want it easy or hard. It would be cool for people who don't know what challenge to take.

Meh, I don't think it should be a ranking system, just sort of a list of the more accomplished challengers. There would be no 'falling down' for you to do.

That'd be better if you just asked for a challenge in here. I think its kind of pointless to have a challenge thread where you have to go to another challenge thread to do it.

[vaporeon7]

Okay, I think I need a new challenge that I can do on my computer so I was thinking of a Normal Monotype on Silver.
My Planned Team:
Furret
Aipom
Smeargle
Pidgeot
Miltank
Dunsparce
So what do you guys think?

[jespoke]

I would never think of using aipom over girafarig, but if you like aipom more, go for it
