    Oh man, what a blast from the past. I think its been about 3 years since the last time I was on PC and yet I still find myself all over the challenge forums. So excited to be back.

    I'm sorry, I'm just feeling really nostalgic

    • I've been working on a challenge (sorta?) by playing through each generation (remakes included) in anticipation for Sun and Moon's release this fall. :) Playing all these games should at least take me that long, haha. Though knowing me, I might get tired once I hit FRLG.

    I do plan on doing a random when I go to Emerald next, mainly because I have used all the Hoenn Pokemon a ton and don't really want to play normally like I have with Red and Crystal. And possibly a monocolor on Gold as a side kind of thing, just cause I'm really into GSC lately.

    What do I do in a Nuzlocke if I haven't caught enough Pokémon for that aide of Prof. Oak to give me HM05?

    I'm playing Pokémon FireRed Omega Nuzlocke.

    I've only caught 8 Pokémon.

    I need 10 Pokémon in the Pokédex to get HM05.

    What do I do? Are there any nuzlocke rules about this?

    This is a tough answer, because do you really need Flash to complete the game? I could see if it was Surf, but Flash is completely optional, and you can just use a map on Bulbapedia to find your way around Rock Tunnel.

    • I have Rock Tunnel down to where I can navigate through to the other side without Flash haha!

    I'm sure as long as you release them, catching a few Pokemon for dex entries wouldn't be a big deal.

    Problem solved, I realized I hadn't visited 2 routes up ahead! I was able to catch Natu and Voltorb, so now I have flash :)

    • I submitted a challenge I'm pretty excited about. I hope it gets accepted. :)

    Basically you can't evolve any Pokemon, and there are different ways you can approach the Elite Four and Post Game that give you different Thread Ribbons. I'm currently 4 badges into the run, but I think I'll slow down and just level grind some random Pokemon until the thread gets posted. I'm probably going to want a bunch of different Pokemon anyways.

    • Evening, morning to ya'll! o/
    Nice to see few familiar names hanging around still.

    I seem to have gone in a coma concerning pokemon and challenges for the longest of time. Once I'll finish up some favorites runs that I have going on I'll be back to challenges and the forum - hoping to find some interesting ones try.

    And - Oh wow my signature is outdated.

    • Good news, everyone! I update the Challenge Index. Yay! I need to keep up with it better, it's really not that complicated. If you ever notice it being left out of date for a long time be sure to poke me, guys. Sometimes I just need some motivation.

    You and me both. I haven't been on for at least 5 months. But I'm kind of in between TV shows right now and need something to do, so maybe I"m back for now?

    • Hey guys! I'm planning on completely overhauling the splash with my own code, and am now taking suggestions! Post here if you have an idea or just message me, either way works.

    Also, I know it's been a while since we have an event. Sorry about that. I want to do something soon, but finding a theme in the middle of the summer is tough. There's hardly any good holidays, and Summer itself has been done before. American Independence day would be cool, except... yeah, it's American only. So if you think that would be a good theme, do chime in and let me know~.

    Are there any games where monotype steel challenge is feasible?

    What is the best game to do a monotype steel challenge? I have always loved steel type but there aren't many Pokemon in that type.

    What Has Been Your Best Nuzlocke Capture?

    So recently I just started my first nuzlocke on my youtube channel. I am playing leafgreen and my subscribers wanted me to start with Armaldo. Things went rough in our first episode, but then I caught a Wartortle!!! Pretty good first capture for my first nuzlocke. So I wanted to know what others best capture has been so far??

    • Probably my Shaymin that I managed to catch in my half-randomized nuzlocke, she was a total legend and even though i ended up losing to Lance at the end of the nuzlocke, i will always remember her as a badass.
