So, trying to hack for a LV 30 Larvitar was a pain, damn Emerald game, so I will stop that, you can take me off the Emerald Eyes list.
And instead I'm going to play now in Pokemon Green. (then Gold)

Team: Victreebel, Venusaur and Scyther.

Update#1:

PS: In my game, Oak name is Aochider, is that correct?
Name: Ray
Opponent: Gary
I got a Bulbasaur, or shall I call it Incon? rofl
Caught a Score and a Stame. (Scyther and Bellsprout, lol)
Defeated Brock.

Spoiler:

Defeated everyone up north and then Casimy (Misty).

Spoiler:

Then Marchiss (Lt. Surge)

Spoiler:

I went to the town where was the dead Marowak, I went to the route next to the right and I got sent to the intro.
Damn!, I will re-do it when I have the anger out.

 

[-Cygnus-]

I went to the town where was the dead Marowak, I went to the route next to the right and I got sent to the intro.
Damn!, I will re-do it when I have the anger out.

I had the same thing happen to me multiple times :/ Was it the second lass in that vertical row of trainers? There's also a few more trainers that do that, one of them being the last trainer in Blaine's gym. Just answer the question, or else as soon as you talk to him, the game crashes.

 

[Giratina ♀]

Sign me up, bay-bee! I'll be using Emerald today, and my team will be: Sceptile, Cradily, Ludicolo, Flygon, Electrike, and of course Breloom~ I will not be posting updates because I constantly forget, but I will post a picture of my HoF data when I finish.

 

[11wildy]

Update:

I beat Blaine with a combination of Sleep powder and normal moves.
Did the tri-island stuff.
Beat Giovanna with my Grass moves and sleep powder.

Training to beat my rival now. He has Pidgeot, Alakazam and Charizard, all super effective on me. Pidgeot and Alakazam are easy, but Charizard is freakin hard. So yeah, time to train some more :D

team::
Victreebel
Solarbeam
Cut
Growth
Sleep powder

Victreebel:
Giga drain
Secret power
Sleep powder
Acid

Venusaur
earthquake
Razor leaf
Leech seed
Strenght

 

[Giratina ♀]

Actually, I think I will post updates. Derp.

1. Started the game with Patrick the Treecko.
2. Did mandatory opening stuff and went onto the Route near Oldale, where I caught a Lotad. ...After killing another one. >> Named her Groeni, but will probably be renamed to something cooler.
3. Shook fist at Pokédex for not allowing Gardevoir to be a Green Pokémon.
4. Did Wally's little subquest, met Scott, etc.
5. Entered Petalburg Forest after grinding my 'mons against some Wingulls and Poochyenas and the like.
6. Caught Roasty the Shroomish -- shaddup, it's an in-joke. This is half of my team, caught in the first few hours of the game. Pretty pro if you ask me. (The real problem is going to be Cradily... I hate those rock things, but not all my 'mons can be Grass-types...)

 

[BenjiTheKid]

Very delayed update on account of being out of town for the past week, but finally getting my update up. ~

Also, I decided to not add Xatu and Tropius to my team. (The latter because it would be another grass type... the former because by the time I caught one, my team was about 13 levels ahead and I didn't feel like grinding) Instead, I trained Kecleon.

Spoiler:

-Started my journey back to Rustboro, training Trapinch along the way.
-Continued on back toward Petalburg.
-Prepared my team for what I assumed would be a tough battle against "my dad".
-Took on Petalburg gym and after about four tries, finally collected my badge.
-Trapinch evolved into Vibrava.
-Collected HM03 and prepared for yet another journey, this time across the water.
-Surfed out toward the abandoned ship, training my Pokemon on the way.
-Explored the ship a bit and then continued across the water, once again training my team.
-Surfed around for a bit, exploring as many surfing areas as possible before finally heading toward the next town.
-Arrived at the weather institute and did that little side plot.
-Battled my rival, and found him embarrassingly easy this time.
-Arrived in Fortree.
-Collected my Pokemon... scope... thing... to find Kecleons and caught Kecleon.
-Challenged Winona, beating her on my first try using Lombre, Dustox, Kecleon, and Vibrava. Only one that gave me trouble was her Skarmory.
-Team was about Lvl 38 by that time. (lowest level being Kecleon at Lvl 32 or 33)
-Continued my journey once again.
-Headed toward the next town, battling the trainers along the way and trained Kecleon to lvl 37 so that he'd be up to speed.
-Arrived in Lilycove, did some shopping after defeating my rival once more, and headed to Mt. Pyre.
-Defeated the grunts, explored Mt. Pyre, continued along the route.
-Headed back to Jagged pass, defeated Team Magma.
-Returned to Lilycove, talked to the grunts.
-Returned to Slateport, watched Team Aqua take the submarine.
-Returned to Lilycove, defeated Team Aqua.
-Surfed to Mossdeep, defeating the trainers along the way.
-Took on Tate and Liza, defeating them using Dustox, Lombre, and Sceptile.
-Went to the space center, defeated Team Magma.
-Explored the ocean; dive and all. (used a Tentacool for Dive)
-Traded blue shard for water stone, evolved Lombre into Ludicolo.
-Vibrava evolved into Flygon.
-Found the submarine, did the Team Aqua thing.
-Went to Sootopolis.
-Did the cave of origin thing.
-Went to Pacifidlog.
-Explored the water a bit more.
-Went to the Sky Pillar.
-Returned to Sootopolis.
-Finished the legendary thing and took on Juan, beating him quite easily using Kecleon, Sceptile, Ludicolo, and Flygon.
-Headed toward Evergrande. (using Tentacool for Waterfall)

Current team:
Dustox - Lvl 47
Flash|Confusion|Psybeam|Silver Wind

Ludicolo - Lvl 48
Surf|Rock Smash|Giga Drain|Ice Beam

Kecleon - Lvl 48

Bullet Seed|Cut|Leaf Blade|Slam

Update again!

Spoiler:

-Made my way through Victory Road.
-Arrived at the Pokemon League.
-Stocked up on Potions, Full Restores, and Revives.
-Prepared my team for battle.
-Entered the league!
-Challenged Sidney, who was rather easy to beat using Dustox and Kecleon. (and a few Revives and Potions)
-Challenged Phoebe, who proved a challenge. But I eventually beat her using Kecleon, Sceptile, and Ludicolo. Had two fainted Pokes afterward. Healed up and continued.
-Challenged Glacia, who was a challenge. Had to soft reset once, but eventually took the win using Kecleon and Sceptile.
-Got anxious on my way to Drake, since he's usually my downfall.
-Challenged Drake. He proved a challenge, as per usual for me. But with a lot of luck, Flygon, Kecleon, and Ludicolo... I took the win after only one soft reset.
-Got even more anxious as I headed toward the champion.
-Challenged Wallace. This time, I had to soft reset several times. Since my team was around 50-52 and his was in the late 50's, I had a bit of a struggle. But I finally got down to his last few Pokemon... struggled with his Ludicolo, though... who insisted on Double Teaming and Leech Seeding me to death. Finally defeated him using my entire team (minus Dustox). Three of my Pokemon were fainted at the end, and one was down to red health... but it was a win!!!
-I am now the champion and I have a team of nothing but green Pokes to thank for it.

Final Team:
Kecleon - Lvl 52
Shadow Ball|Fire Blast|Thunder|Slash

Ludicolo - Lvl 50
Surf|Rock Smash|Blizzard|Ice Beam

Dustox - Lvl 50
Flash|Psychic|Hyper Beam|Silver Wind

Sceptile - Lvl 51
Bullet Seed|Cut|Leaf Blade|Slam

Flygon - Lvl 51
Crunch|Strength|Dragonbreath|Earthquake

Total Play Time: 25:47

I have a new found respect for Kecleon. And now that I'm done with the challenge, I don't know what to do with my copy of Emerald.

Lorelei got pwnt by some Razor leaves.
Bruno as well.
Agatha was really difficult.the rest pwnt with
Gengar, haunter were Leech seed stalled, the rest was pwnt with neutral normal attacks.

[myrrhman]

I should start this, shouldn't I?

Named myself Emerald, because this will also be part of my Grass UMC, and my theme has been on RSE games, I name my character a gem that is the same color as my type.
Saved Birch w/ Treeko (Clover)
Defeated May
Caught Lotad (Shamrock)
Witnessed the catchation of a Ralts by Wally
Saved dude in Petalburg Woods.
Both Clover and Shamrock evolved right before I fought Roxanne.
Fought Roxanne and won!

Coming up next: probs battle in Rusturf cave to about Wattson.

Screenies (accidentally missed the one naming Treeko):

Spoiler:

Gotta put my update 2 here since nobody's updated yet...
Did Rusturf Tunnel stuff
Missed a May screenie.
Went to Dewford
Delivered Letter
Went to Slateport Bay
Went in Seashore house, won all three battles, and then spent ALL my money on Soda Pops. I know I'll need them for Wattson. I'm not going to have an attack that isn't NVE...
Backtracked for Brawly. Beat him
Delivered Goods, defeated whichever team I fought.
Fought May on the way to Mauville
Beat Wally
Beat Wattson. It was a lot easier than I thought; I only needed like 16 of my Soda Pops. I thought Shock Wave would do more to Clover...
Train train train. Overlevelling Clover for Flannery.
Hey, don't take that Meteorite! (Missed the screenie again...)
Screenies round 2

Spoiler:

 

[Sydian]

If your final update is not posted by April 1 12 AM Central (-6 GMT), then you will not get your emblem. (Sorry if this confused anyone)

If you did an ultimate and completed at least one game, you will still get the emblem, since you actually did something.

 

[myrrhman]

This stomach virus will not keep me from getting this emblem!

Beat Flannery with my new Sceptile.
Caught Cacnea (Ran out of actual St. Patty's names that I could think of at the moment, so had to improvise)
Beat Dad with Sceptile.
Got Surf, which I taught to Lombre.
Got Ice Beam, also to Lombre. He is now ready to do stuff before I fight Winona.
Paused for a sec to consider final Movesets.
Taught Rock Tomb to Sceptile.
Taught Strength to Lombre temporarily.
Taught Toxic to Cacnea.
Cacnea Evolved!
Got Devon Scope.
Defeated Winona, taught Sceptile Aerial Ace.
After being given an Orb, I took a quick trip to route 123 to get Giga Drain for Lombre.
Went to a class and came back. Went to Slateport to see the sub get jacked.

Screenies:

Spoiler:

Edit for more progress:
F'hargon learned Needle arm finally.
Did other stuff
Final two gym leaders? Puh leez.
Got to Elite Four.
Saved and quit.

No screenies because of my rush to get to E4.
Edit round 3: Done!
Sydney: Easy work for Shamrock and some help from Clover
Phoebe: Sweep w/ F'hargon
Glacia: Almost w/ Shamrock, gotta love that Miracle Seed boosted Giga Drain! Walrein got lucky w/ Blizzard, so F'hargon had to finish the battle
Drake: Almost sweep w/ Clover after 6 Rare Candies were administered. Gotta love Dragon Claw! (Shamrock had to finish off Altaria though, as Salamence almost OHKO'd Clover w/ Flamethrower and Altaria fainted her w/ something.
Champ: Don't make me laugh.

Had some fun with the final screenshot.

Spoiler:

Final Team:

Spoiler:

Shamrock, the Lv. 50 Ludicolo @Mystic Water
154/87/89/102/121/87
Surf, Ice Beam, Brick Break (Dive or Waterfall until after I didn't need them anymore), Giga Drain (Bullet Seed or Strength when I could learn it, until I didn't need it anymore)

Clover, the Lv. 51 Sceptile @Soft Sand
148/109/81/132/101/144
Earthquake (Dig until I got EQ), Dragon Claw (Aerial Ace until Drake), Leaf Blade, Rock Tomb)

F'hargon, the Lv. 48 Cacturne @Miracle Seed
130/112/69/134/79/82
Needle Arm, Toxic, Double Team, Faint Attack

Dargon, the Lv. 26 Tropius
Fly Slave

Not really sure on who the MVP of my team was... It was definitely Clover at the beginning, but she lost usefulness as the other two got better. Would have been fine with any of them as starters. Shamrock was really useful with HM Juggling. At one point (Seafloor Cavern), she knew 3 (Dive, Surf, Strength)

 

[Regeneration]

Ohhhhhhh yeaaaaaaaaaaah! Finally, I've completed this challenge. :'D

I went against the Elite 4, with a team of Level 50 Pokemon and they were amazing! Breloom and Dustox swept through Sidney, whereas Pheobe required a combined effort from the entire team. Breloom once again swept through Glacia, and Ludiculo and Flygon did a nice job kicking Drake. Sceptile and Breloom easily wiped though Wallace. :>

I'm feeling too lazy to type out anything, so I've got a whole bunch of screenshots with my green team!
