  • I've gotten absolutely nowhere so far. Defeated Brock and the gaggle of trainers on route 3 but that's all. Ivysaur is now at level 24. I can solo Misty at this point! A while to go before I get my next pokemon. :<

  • This challenge is certainly fun. I never used Bulbasaur before but I am really enjoying it. As usual, Nidoran is a pleasure to use. I remember why my last Nidoqueen held up so long. Easy to train, hard to kill.

    -Cleared Route 3
    -Cleared Mt. Moon
    -Arrived in Cerulean City
    -Cleared Cerulean Gym
    -Challenged Misty
    -Defeated Misty with ease, just like Brock
    -Ran into Tybalt on the way to Nugget Bridge
    -Defeated Tybalt with my slightly over leveled team

    Team:
    Spoiler:


    Unfortunately for me, I will likely be waiting to evolve Kagura until lvl 53 so she can learn Crunch, which will be vital to my survival against Agatha of the Elite Four, the bane of my existance...

    Traded Nick immediately upon arrival to Fallarbor Town so that he could become a lovely Alakazam. We have some friendship to rekindle as a result. After rigorously training Derek, he finally learned Signal Beam and doesn't suck anymore! However I noticed he needs tons more exp to level up than my other party members, so leveling him up is still a hassle in that it just requires more points. After we ran off Team Magma from Mt. Chimney, we showed Flannery who's boss, braved a desert, and beat Daddy-o. After getting Surf, we went back north to get out pink party member, Beyonce. Can you tell what I was watching when this happened? lol Gave her a Macho Brace to EV her in Special Attack and catch her up with the party, and evolved her. After that, I'll head back to Petalburg to do the sea route!

  • UPDATE #2~**~**~

    -Spent an HOUR going up and down in Jubilife City to get Lorenza to enough happiness to evolve before Level 19 so she could learn Magical Leaf
    -Did a little training in Eterna Forest but headed straight to the Eterna Gym to get the badge so Tyrant would listen to me
    -Tyrant kept dying because he wouldn't listen and it's tough to beat a Grass-type gym with a Grass-type Pokemon but I did it!
    -Quickly maneuvered my way through Galactic's hideout so I could get a bike and head to Hearthome to get my Gift the Eevee. Got really lucky again and got the nature I wanted on the first try
    -Grinded him a little to catch up to the other two and then again did some happiness grinding (this time on the Bicycle Road) to evolve into an Umbreon before bed! Time to go kick Fantina's ass so I can get my hands on Lickitung and Ralts!

  • Hey Sydian, does our Flower Pokemon need 2 Grass attacking moves, or can one be a status move?


    Anyway...
    I started on Sapphire!

    Update #1 on Sapphire.

    Name: Jd
    Starter: Torchic

    • Got Torchic and named him Chocolate cuz that's the gift on Valentine's Day.
    • Caught 4 Zigzagoons for a Pickup army.
    • Caught a male Wurmple named Attractor in Petalburg Forest; soon he evolved into Silicoon and then Beautifly.
    • Grinded a bit around Rustboro City, then challenged the gym.
    • Narrowly defeated Roxanne thanks to Chocolate burning Nosepass and Attractor having Absorb.
    • Went to Dewford, delivered the letter, and Chocolate evolved into Combusken!
    • Took on the gym, and Attractor wiped the floor against Brawly with Gust.
    • Cut through Slateport after beating the Aqua Grunts and defeated May on the way to Mauville.
    • After a long time looking (and beat lots of Roselia for exp), I caught my Flower Pokemon, Rafflesia the Oddish, on Route 117.
    • Trained him up on trainers I skipped earlier, and he evolved into Gloom!
    • Took on Wattson with Chocolate, who needed a Soda Pop (Voltorb Selfdestructed...) but beat him easily with Double Kick.
    • Saved on Route 111.

    Update #4 - Second to last update because what is my life. Since I went through this so fast I might go all the way and beat Red. Anywho!

    - Defeated the Secret Rocket Base.
    - Faced Pryce. Beat his Seel and Dewgong with Bessie and Ty Lee easily took out his Piloswine.
    - Goldenrod Events with Team Rocket
    - Went through the Ice Caves and ended up in Blackthorn City.
    - Faced Clair. Don't remember the details (idek why) but I do remember Bessie taking out her first Dragonair.
    - Wandered Johto a bit. Forgot to pick up a Ice Punch TM for Bessie (so she'll be stuck with Thunder Punch or given Shadow Ball) but beat Suicune for EXP and a few trainers.
    - Also caught a Poliwag along the way as a Love Slave so I can get my Badge and make my way to the Pokemon League.
    - Which I did.
    - While grinding a little bit.
    - Also I beat my Rival (who is named Silver).
    - Now either I am going to grind a little more (haha that's funny), go back to Johto to do some things, or just face the Elite Four as is.

  • -- Update 1 --​

    Finally started the challenge, and I have to say, I was surprised how easy Roxanne was only Aristocat, and I was surprised at how difficult Brawly was using the same strategy. Speaking of which, the whole Sing → Attract → Tail Whip → Doubleslap combo worked nicely, though I have found out that Sing nearly never hits.

    Also, it would appear I was never added to the list when I applied. That is all.

    ♥ As I was leaving Azealea Town I enountered my Rival whom I battled and narrowly won!
    ♥ Escorted the Farfetch'd back to the HM guy which is much less informative than HGSS.
    ♥ Obtained Cut & Headbutt and went on my way through the Forest
    ♥ Got the Odd Egg from the Daycare Couple which I'm hoping hatches into Smoochum!
    ♥ So the Odd Egg hatched which turned out to be a Shiny Pichu, I couldn't reset so I kept it in the Daycare. I guess I'll have to catch Jynx at Ice Cave!
    ♥ After training all my team to Level 20, I headed to the Gym to battle some more trainers... yay!
    ♥ It took two fails but after that, I defeated Whitney and got the Plain Badge along with TM45!
    ♥ I taught Attract to Pidgeotto since it is my Attract Pokemon for this Challenge and headed onwards to Ecruteak City
    ♥ After accidently knocking out Sudowoodo, I reached Ecruteak City where I entered the Burnt Tower and encountered my Rival... yet again.
    ♥ So I met Eusine in the Tower after having my first encounter with the Legendary Dogs, I then took to the Dance Hall to train battling the Kimono Sisters
    ♥ Defeated the Kimono Girls and got HM03 Surf, which will be very useful for Horsea!
    ♥ Entered onto Route 38 in search of Miltank, after hoardes of encounters I finally found her!
    ♥ After training up Miltank to an appropriet level, I took on Morty who was far easier than Whitney thanks to Pidgeotto & Miltank! Obtained the Fog Badge & TM 30.
