    There might be an active thread of this, but the owner has not been here for quite a time, the first page was edited in april for the last time.
    rules, banners and participants are copied from the other thread (only rule 1, 8 and 9 were changed a bit), since this is still the same challenge.
    Please correct me if i did some mistake in the lists, because of name changes or whatever.


    Rules:
    (Don't take them too serious, this is for fun and killing time)
    1. Your run will be finished when defeat Red. (just 16 badges is too easy)
    2. Starter may only be used if it falls underneath your type
    3. Multiple people may do the same type at once
    4. HM slaves allowed
    5. Secondary types are allowed
    6. Please update actively
    7. This is NOT a race
    8. Please do not trade unless for evolution reasons. If you choose a type, which gets its first Pokemon really late in the game, you may trade a low-leveled, unevolved pokemon (or an egg) of your type/that evolves into your type
    9. No legendaries (but they may be used as HM slaves)! (it takes the fun out of the game)



    Inactive Participants (No Update for >2 Months (status: 20.04.10)):
    Note: The participants list is split only for convenience reasons. So, if you are on the inactive list, you can still continue your challenge any time - if you want.
    Excuse the spoiler splitting, I will fix this problem as soon as I find out how.

    banners by Cooltrainer_Mike are in the spoiler, but sadly there are only banners for the 'main' types
    Spoiler:







    ...And why should i open this thread if i wouldnt participate? i'll do Ice, nobody has done that type yet, because of the no-trading-rule.
    Well, i was having some problems trading me a swinub egg (i'm using swinub because it's the weakest ice type, except for delibird which would have been too hard), first it took eternities till the Swinub and the Ditto on Gold Version finally had an egg, then TGB Dual didnt accept my VBA savefiles, later VBA didnt accept the TGB Dual savefiles, but somehow i managed it, and finally i have a Swinub Lv. 5 (and a lv. 3 Pidgey because i traded my starter Chikorita for the egg) on Crystal version now, so my challenge can begin now.

    Congratulations for finishing, Archer, i added you to the Winners list


    __________

    I thought Ice would be hard because Swinub is so weak, but Ice/Ground is just such an awesome combination, i just beat Bugsy and the entire game has been incredibly easy up to this point.
    screenshot that shows how awesome swinub is:
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge



    Team:

    Swinub Lv. 20
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Tackle
    - Endure
    - Powder Snow
    - Mud Slap

    But i suppose the rival fight wont be that easy, i think i'll need some Hax, which means Quilava's Ember missing after Mud Slap...

    Thanks. I'm going to move onto Emerald, now. I prefer the third game in each trio - it usually has a better selection of pokemon.

    Please make sure that you keep this thread alive, because all of these Monotype threads seem to need replacing when the host quits.

    I think you should become the new owner of the earlier thread since both this and the other one is still active

    Since there aren't really any Ghost type Pokemon I guess I can try to do a Poison monotype challenge

    so what? does the old thread need replacement or does only the first post of the old thread need replacement? ...because the R/B/Y thread also was replaced, while it was still active...
    this is getting confusing...

    _____________

    I'm at Goldenrod now. The Fire weak is annoying, i had to train Swinub to lv. 23 so Quilava didnt 2HKO it and later i blacked out against some Firebreather with 2 Magmars. I hadnt saved so i just accepted the loss of money and continued. Beat everyone except for Whitney now, i'll attempt her soon.


    Team:

    Swinub Lv. 29

    I've 4 badges now and arrived at Mahagony. I caught a Shellder and a Lapras and Swinub evolved into Piloswine.

    Lapras Lv. 26

    - Confuse Ray
    - Body Slam

    I wont be able to enter Ice Path before i beat team Rocket in Radio Tower, so Pokemon like Jynx or Sneasel are still far away. But i'm planning to catch a Seel on the way to Cianwood, so i have to get Whirlpool from Lance and beat Pryce before.

    Beat Gyarados, Team Rocket and Pryce, caught a Seel, beat Chuck and completely owned Jasmine. And i'm starting to neglect my weaker teammembers again, Lapras has a slight advantage in levels...
    But soon i can finally access Ice Pass and catch a Sneasel and a Jynx, i think they'll balance my team a bit more

    Beat Rockets and caught a Delibird and a Sneasel in Ice Path, didnt find a Jynx, it's just too rare, so i'll use Delibird in my team. Trained my entire team (even Delibird, just for the lulz) to Lv. 30, didnt enter the gym yet.

    Team:

    Piloswine Lv. 36
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Strength
    - Headbutt
    - Icy Wind
    - Mud Slap
    Didnt use, so it didnt change

    Shellder Lv. 30
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Whirlpool
    - Surf
    - Supersonic
    - Aurora Beam
    Yes, i already have a Water Stone, but this thing can learn Ice Beam by level and Cloyster doesnt.

    Lapras Lv. 48
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Surf
    - Ice Beam
    - Confuse Ray
    - Body Slam
    Still really overleveled, i guess i could have already beaten Claire with it.

    Seel Lv. 30
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Headbutt
    - Waterfall
    - Aurora Beam
    - Rest
    Veeery similar to Lapras, but with inferior stats and move pool

    Delibird Lv. 30
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Present
    - Fly
    - Swagger
    - Attract
    This covers my Grass weak with Fly... No, this thing just fails, i can't deny it
    Oh, wait, i forgot that Ice is super effective to Grass too, so it doesnt even that xD

    Sneasel Lv. 30
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Shadow Ball
    - Dig
    - Iron Tail
    - Dynamicpunch
    I'll probably replace Dynamicpunch with Slash later on, 50% accuracy is just ridiculous

    Wowee !

    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    Crunch on Feraligatr, Aqua Tail on Gyara, Hypnosis and Psychic on Yanma... Looks like Gen 4 (->HG/SS) movesets... Maybe i should add these two here, but since theres a whole HG/SS-forum, maybe not...

    Ohk an i finally beat Claire now. Pokemon didnt change except for Sneasel being 32 and Lapras being 49 now. The first Dragoniar killed all my Pokemon, damn me for losing against something i have a type advantage against, but Sneasel was able to take it out with Shadow Ball, it had already been weakened by Seel before (and the other ones all got OHKOd or 2HKOd with Parahax, i just don't understand it) Sneasel died against Kingdra, which came next. Lapras got some -Acc before Kingdra went down, but i was lucky and Ice Beam hit on the other Dragonairs.
    I decided to stop training Delibird from now, that thing got easily pwned by a HORSEA, so my dump for useless TMs will stay lv. 30 now as training it wouldnt help at all. I'll look again for a Jynx instead, it's rare, but all these Golbats in Ice Path give good Exp, so it won't be a complete waste of time looking for it.

    Beat Claire and spent A LOT of time in Ice Path looking for Jynx afterwards, i'm seriously overleveled now, but didnt find a Jynx. Currently in Victory Road.

    Team:

    Piloswine Lv. 43
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Strength
    - Headbutt
    - Icy Wind
    - Mud Slap
    Still pretty much the same, i'll teach it EQ soon.

    Cloyster Lv. 50
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Whirlpool
    - Surf
    - Ice Beam
    - Aurora Beam
    This thing had an Exp.Share all the time i was looking for Jynx, when it learned Ice Beam, i gave up. Whirlpool because i was too lazy to catch a HM slave.

    Lapras Lv. 49
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Surf
    - Ice Beam
    - Confuse Ray
    - Body Slam
    Only thing that didnt really level up, but still one of the pokemon with highest level.

    Dewgong Lv. 44
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Headbutt
    - Waterfall
    - Aurora Beam
    - Ice Beam
    As i said, very similar to Lapras.

    Delibird Lv. 30
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Present
    - Fly
    - Swagger
    - Attract
    Stopped training this thing now, it's just too weak, but i can still use it as revive fodder.

    Sneasel Lv. 44
    G/S/C Monotype Challenge

    - Shadow Ball
    - Dig
    - Iron Tail
    - Dynamicpunch
    Still no Slash, i thought Sneasel would learn that move and i could finally replace that stupid Dynamicpunch

    Whoops, forgot to replace Seels and Shellders Sprites up there, but i beat the E4 now, which was pretty easy.
    Oh, and i was bored, so i recorded the battles.
    levels didnt really change...
