[Schala_25]

I'm sorry for the big break between updates, school, applications, and life in general has made it hard to update. I promise that I WILL finish this challenge, even if it takes me a while.

Aegir evolved.
Traveled to Mossdeep.

[overlord tyranitar]

I will be joining is well, sign me up for the poor bug type

 

[overlord tyranitar]

scratch that, ive found something more challenging to do

I'm back, i have finished my other challenges so I'll do this one
sign me up for BUG (it's just too tempting) on emerald

UPDATE!(even if it's a bit small)
picked torchic as starter after losing four pounds waiting for the speech to end, thrashed May with lv7 torchic (if she has been working with birch most of her life, wouldn't she have more than one pokemon, and have a starter that has been trained?)

then my so-called mother bribed me with shoes to get out of town, which I promptly did and caught myself two wurmples, and then mailed torchic away to a mcnugget factory.
both wurmples evolved into silcoon and cascoon respectively and promptly slaughtered the teams of the first few trainers to irk them, (that poor,poor,poor poochyena, choking on string shot like that, and his trainer who seems to be twiching on the floor from a poison sting
currently sulking after having to protect wally from rabid lotads

current death squad

silcoon lv8 (you can see that look in his eye that say's "i want to feast on your corpse"
cascoon lv8
tackle, string shot and poison sting for both

Anybody still doing this? I was planning to start up doing a bug run. Probably still will anyway but it's always nice to have a community cheering you on or making fun of you or whatever this community does. :)

Well so far, I snagged two Wurmples right off the bat and trained them up until they both turned into Silcoons. Bummer. So I trained the one with the better nature into Beautifly and snagged a Cascoon in Petalburg woods. I hate doing that since it only had Harden and requires the whole switch-in, switch out thing to train it up but oh well. So I got it evolved to a Dustox and when next I play I'll be scouring Route 102 looking for a Surskit. Also I have a Zigzagoon for HM Slave and item procurment purposes.

Not a bad start.

 

[RichD]

So apparently I'm an idiot and there are no Surskit in Emerald. Boo. On the plus side, all that grind has brought both my Dustox, Motte, and my Beautifly, Monarch, to level 20. Onward to Rustboro City.
