1. Since White isn't even out for everyone yet, an ultimate, right now, consists of doing a game that was in each region, so that'd be Green/LeafGreen, Gold, Emerald, and then HeartGold (this will count as gen IV since DPPt aren't involved in this challenge). If you have White or a White ROM, then I recommend adding that in.

2. HeartGold counts as gen IV.

3. We're all getting the same emblem as it stands.

Congrats on the shiny, Gavin! And I'll add you in, TSO. :)

i won't ultimate then, cuz i don't have heart gold

Eternal Emerald! - Update #1

Just trying to pull the squad together right now, I have a vague idea of my team, but we'll see! It's ambitious, since it includes shiny hunting, and until I find that Tailow, I can't move on! A little level grinding for Crayon & Lotad will also be in the mix when doing so however. But so far, it's been an eventful few hours, with only a little false luck :<

This is what I called myself, so original!

Alright, this is the squad so far.

I've been searching, for 2 hours, for

but no luck yet...however...

Spoiler:

IT'S A SIGN. I WILL KEEP TRYING.

Not an official update, but after many hours, and a little luck, I managed to do this...

Syd was there to see me spaz out, so I named it after her. I will be pushing onto Rustboro and give you guys an official update in a little while!

 

[AyameHikaru]

Sorry for the lack of updates - My Wifi's gone all screwy, so my poor laptop is having a heck of a time doing anything. SO. Started with Treecko. Caught Lotad & Shroomish early on. Lotad blew through Roxanne EASILY, not even needing help. Brawly was a little tougher, but by then Shroomish had Leech Seed & Stun Spore. Combining the two, I squeaked out a victory. I did some grinding before battling Wattson, evolving Lotad & Shroomish. He took out Lombre, but Breloom's Mach Punch saved the day! I'm now hot on the trail of Teams Magma & Aqua. :) Team: Ko the Grovyle, Lv. 27 Ro the Breloom Lv. 26 Lo the Lombre Lv. 27 Go the Zigzagoon Lv. 5

[Bibliophibian]

I'll sign up on Gold. :3
My planned team is Meganium, Politoed, Tyranitar, and Xatu, but it's subject to change.

 

[Ho-Oh]

Just started a few minutes ago.

I'll be using LeafGreen.

The name I'll be playing as is "Dewgong" and the rival is named "Crimgan". I picked a Bulbasaur as a starter - and it was a female on first try, too! I named that Bulbasaur "Dove". I left Pallet Town just then, let's see what awaits me. :D

/plans to grind and then grab two Caterpie's soon

 

[Sydian]

Ugh, this is why I hate updating, cause Bulbapedia takes too damn long to load with my connection. :( Sorry, no colorful sprites this time, it just doesn't wanna load for me. fffff

Arcko / Sceptile (m) lv. 37
Leaf Blade, Quick Attack, Pursuit, Screech

Miror B. / Lombre (m) lv. 35
Absorb, Nature Power, Astonish, Fake Out

8.07 PM / Electrike (f) lv. 33
Bite, Spark, Return, Thunder Wave

Larry / Trapinch (m) lv. 32
Sand Tomb, Faint Attack, Secret Power, Rock Tomb

Currently training in the desert, I will have Larry evolve before Norman. I will. Cause that gym...is a pain. Thank goodness the sea routes will be good training for 8.07 PM since she can't do much in the desert. AND WATER STONE SOON OMG.

Also going to enter this on Gold. Will be emulating it though, and hacking in a Larvitar, and later a Politoed. I have no patience to get a new emulator and trade with them and do all that. v_v

 

[-Cygnus-]

@Syd: Your Lombre's name makes me wish I had my old Collesseum...

Ran into a slight problem with trading Scyther over- it didn't work. Got an error message, and I have no idea where to find wild pokemon data in the ROM, so it looks like I will be continuing with dos Weepinbells/Victreebels...

Spoiler:

Chapter 2: The Saga Continues​

We begin this update with this:​

Now that I have you attention, let's continue... But seriously, who designed the Ekans sprite? It looks like They photoshopped Psyduck's head onto Ekans' body... When I got to Mt. Moon, I soon discovered a slight problem with the translation.​

Don't remember which one I picked... But after that, Fuji learned the most bestest attack ever.​

Attacks of the lawn mowers! My first Bellsprout also evolved while I was grinding endlessly.​

Oh and in case you missed my username... (Btw the ROM crashed almost right after this)​

I got a wicked looking Venusaur too :P​

And ended off with destroying Surge. Those electric locks are made so much easier with savestates :)​

The Team​

Spoiler:

I will give a cookie to whomever knows which attacks are what :P Flying Bird is a toughie...​

I think that will be all then! I think I'll post next update after I get two/three more badges.​

Also: Anyone have any good moveset ideas for mah Weeps? I don't want them to have all the same moves, but I'm starting to love gen I Wrap :)​

• Got my Map Card from the old man in Cherrygrove.
• Went to Mr. Pokemon's house and got my Pokedex from Prof. Oak.
• Battled my rival on the way back to New Bark Town.
• Named my rival Silver. (Creativity everywhere!)
• Went ahead and hacked in my other team members, all at level 2.
• Nicknamed everyone. Chips the Larvitar, Syrup the Politoed and Lime the Natu.
• Leveled my new team members up to around level 8. Dippy currently at level 12.
• Went to Violet City, went through Sprout Tower to get Flash, then conquered Falkner's Gym.
• Got the Egg from Elm's Assistant and headed towards Union Cave.
• Dippy evolved into Bayleef.
• Cleared Team Rocket out of Slowpoke Well, then went to take on the Gym.
• Lime destroyed everything in Bugsy's Gym. (Woo, Peck!)
• Defeated Silver, went to the Ilex Forest and got Cut.

• End of the first update.

Current Team

Tackle, Poison Powder, Razor Leaf, Reflect

Lime (Natu; Male) - Lv. 17

Syrup (Politoed; Female) - Lv. 19
Water Gun, Hypnosis, Doubleslap, Perish Song

Chips (Larvitar; Male) - Lv. 17
Bite, Leer, Sandstorm, Screech

HM Slaves: Shrubby (Oddish - Cut)

 

[Roaring Moon]

Oh would you look at that, I made it to the hall of fame! :D

 

[Ho-Oh]

Update

Dove - Venusaur @ level 34
Tackle
Poisonpowder
Leech Seed
Razor Leaf

Superstars - Weepinbell @ level 29
Vine Whip
Acid
Wrap
Stun Spore

Green - Metapod @ level 12
Tackle
String Shot
Harden

Plus another Bellsprout that knows Cut, and a filler Caterpie. Beat Brock and Misty by just attacking once. Right now grinding and raising defences enough so I can take on Surge. I think that's all of importance --oh, and battling trainers with stun spore/supersonic, omg is terrible. Though now I use leech seed and poisonpowder to my advantage. Also, Metapod gets a lot of critical hits.

 

[institutions]

I'll join, so I have something to do until Black comes out on Sunday.
I'll be playing Green and my team will be Venusaur, Scyther, and Victreebell.

I started a couple minutes ago.
- Named my character RED and rival BLUE (original, I know.)
- Picked Bulbasaur
- Grinded Bulbasaur to level 10 on Route 1, like I do on every game.
- Got Oak's Parcel/Pokedex
- Used gameshark code to catch a level 3 Scyther on Route 1 (hope that's okay. I only used the code to make it appear.)
- Currently grinding Scyther on Route 1.


Is there a site that translates the attacks a little better? I'd hate to get rid of a good move for something terrible that I don't know what it is.

 

[Enigma]

LeafGreen complete. Moving on to Gold version with the team of Meganium, Xatu, and Tyranitar.

Final Leaf Green Update:

Spoiler:

Yeah, basically beat the game. Not much to say here, so here are some screens. (I forgot to take one when battling Sabrina. D:)

- Ivysaur evolves! :D

- Weepinbell is allowed to evolve after learning Razor Leaf.

- I had to do so much training to get my levels this high. I trained everyone to about level 65 for the League, so I wouldn't have any problems. Although, I soon found out that it wasn't necessary, because Swords Dance on a Scyther can destroy everything. Oh well. xD

Final Team:

Scyther Lv. 70
Gentle
Aerial Ace, Slash, Swords Dance, Pursuit

Venusaur Lv. 65
Bold
Razor Leaf, Toxic, Leech Seed, Attract

Victreebel Lv. 63
Bold
Razor Leaf, Acid, Growth, Stun Spore
