Description: Use only Pokemon caught or traded before challenging Whitney's Gym.
That includes not going past Goldenrod to catch anything pre-challenge.
Allowed- Trading for all the starters for a balanced team, using whatever comes out of the Odd Egg (I hope it's Pichu or Elekid, for balance sake),trading for an Eevee early on (for my psychic or dark-type) (I have two copies so I can trade between myself since it's not a wi-fi compatible version.
Not Allowed- Using Gameshark codes, trading for any Legendaries (though you can catch them, you can't use them.) Changing teams for a legendary full one right before fighting Red at Mt. Silver.
Notes- This is to challenge myself, I will post my team, their levels at each city, their move-sets, and notes on Gym fights. I will also post my time-played daily, until I beat Red, at which point I will update only after every 10 new 'dex entries. I will post total time played after 100% completion.

Yes, I know I look moe as my eevee-sonality, just don't let it blur your logic, trainer.
I don't calculate stat values, I don't breed my way to perfection, and I don't care about natures. I catch my Pokemon the way they are, and treat them like individuals instead of brainless drones. If you use this philosophy, copy & paste this into your signature.
If you believe that catching and training a well balanced team early on is better than spending months and weeks breeding and searching in the farthest-flung weirdest places in your region, copy and paste this into your signature.
