  • Ok, i started now, named self Misntrp (damn 7 characters, and yes, i intended to call my self misanthrope), chose Cyndaquil, beat rival and finally caught my first two Pokemon and gave them retarded nicknames. Caterpie is going to evolve soon and Hoppip just refuses to learn any damaging move like Tackle.


    Team:

    PetrLustig / Hoppip Lv. 8
    G/S/C - Common Pokemon Challenge

    - Splash
    - Synthesis
    - Tail Whip

    Awzum! / Caterpie Lv. 6
    G/S/C - Common Pokemon Challenge

    - Tackle
    - String Shot

    future HM slave: Cyndaquil Lv. 9


    btw i'm playing Crystal, i'm just using Gold sprites because the animation is pretty annoying and most Gold sprites look pretty similar to Crystal sprites.

  • Leveled Hoppip and Caterpie till Hoppip learned Tackle, went to Violet, caught a Zubat on the way, did the Bellsprout tower and attempted and lost to Falkner with Lv. 10/11 Pokemon. Did some more training, and finally beat Falkner, hail to the Zubat. Got Egg and Miracle Seed, saved.


    Team:
    Spoiler:



    Boxed: Cyndaquil Lv. 9, Egg (Togepi)


    Small Update:
    I just blacked out against the Hiker between Union cave and Azalea, stupid Rock Throw... I'm already afraid of Miltank's Rollout...

    ... but Bugsy was easy, Hoppip poisoned Metapod and then i just had to wait, Butterfree OHKOd Kakuna and beat Scyther on a tough battle. All are Lv. 16 now, Butterfree is 17.

    And here the epic Whitney Battle (first attempt):
    and here the video for tl;dr people, but a lot less epic than the log because of speedincrease-abuse and me running media player in the background

  • I just beat Pryce, i was a bit lucky that Dewgong slept really long and Piloswine's Blizzard always missed (always means 1 or 2 times...)

    PetrLustig / Jumpluff Lv. 32
    G/S/C - Common Pokemon Challenge
    @ Miracle Seed
    - Leech Seed
    - Synthesis
    - Sleep Powder
    - Headbutt
    Kills everything, only weakness is Sleep Powder's accuracy

    Awzum! / Butterfree Lv. 33
    G/S/C - Common Pokemon Challenge
    @Quick Claw
    - Gust
    - Hidden Power Poison
    - Sleep Powder
    - Confusion
    The HP really sucks, it has a bad typing and a lot less power than even gust... but Butterfree is still a nice pokemon, i'm just having some bad luck

    SoooCommon / Golbat Lv. 32
    G/S/C - Common Pokemon Challenge

    - Leech Life
    - Wing Attack
    - Bite
    - Confuse Ray
    There was a time when Golbat died pretty fast, so i think it doesnt really like me->no Crobat yet...

    Slaves:
    Krabby Lv. 20 (Surf, Whirlpool, Strength)
    Farfetch'd Lv. 16 (Cut)

    Beat Chuck, Jasmine and Finished Radio Tower now. The Jasmine battle took enternally, but thanks to Leech Seed, i won...

    Golbat evolved somewhere during the Radio Tower quest, in Level 37...

    I just ran into TWO JYNX in Ice Path (i think they were even in a row), after i had been looking for hours for one in my mono ice. Sadly, i killed them both

    Clair was easy. Sleep Powder + Leech Seed + Psybeam killed the first 2 Dragonairs, but both Butterfree and Jumpluff got hit by a Thunderwave and the last Dragonair 2HKOd Jumpluff with Ice Beam. Crobat revenge killed Dragonair and even swept Kingdra without problems.

    Elite 4 Time!
    About the first four, i just say they were easy, Lance took quite a while but i only needed 2 revives (both against aerodactyl) so he wasnt that hard after all...

    G/S/C - Common Pokemon Challenge
    @ Sharp Beak
    - Leech Life
    - Wing Attack
    - Bite
    - Confuse Ray

    And yes, i did use Leech Life in the Elite 4, against Koga's Muk when it had something like 3 hp left xD

    UPDATE: Beat Red. Pikachu and Charizard was piece of Cake for Jumpluff, Charizard didnt like Crobat's Wing Attacks. Espeon killed dCrobat because i forgot to switch, but Jumpluff beat it with ease. Even Snorlax was surprisingly easy, it didnt use Rest one single time... Venusaur got pwned by Butterfree's Psychics, only Blastiose gave some trouble and KOd everything with Blizzard, but when a sleep powder finally hit, Jumpluff took it out with ease. So the hardest part was probably getting to Red without Flash, it took me sooo long

  • So I uh...kinda got carried away with my training
    and now both SplashyPQR and ShockerPQR are Lvl 83.

    I know that once I beat Red I am going to stop playing,
    so to continue this, I am going to train them both to 100
    before facing Red.

  • I gotta try this. Oddly enough, I think I pretty much did this challenge the first time I played through Emerald, except I had four. XD

    Hm, should I go through the trouble of finishing my half-completed Crystal game to start this one, or just delete the Crystal game I have so far? o.o;

    Also, would Totodile, Gastly and Sentret count as being common enough? o.o

    This sounds interesting. I'll try it out sometime in the near future. Of course I'll restrict myself to three, and might even catch the first three I see in the wild :D Sounds like fun.
