    Could someone tell that on a Ground run can I use Tyranitar? Firstly, we get it as a Larvitar, which is part-Rock part-Ground. Then, Pupitar is also same as Larvitar. After evolving, Pupitar turns into Tyranitar, which is part-Rock part-Dark.. Also can Golbat evolve into Crobat by happiness in FireRed? I have kept it as a race between Ground, Poison and Water. Please answer.

    Golbat cannot evolve into Crobat until you get the National Dex. D:

    Can Johto pokemon be obtained after National Dex only? I thought Hoenn pokes can be found after it and Johto before.. And what about Tyranitar?
    EDIT: Tyranitar is Johto too.. I'll do Flying and Water both...... It would be an ultimate challenge and I will do it on different games like Flying on FR and Water on LG.

    Read you loud and clear. :] I've already got a pretty good start. I was half way through Nugget Bridge when my gameboy died and I apparently forgot to save. D: So that set me back a lot, but resuming tomorrow! I shall miss my savvy Jigglypuff and Clefairy.


    Started as RED
    Rival named BLUE
    Obtained Squirtle.
    Obtained Town Map
    Traveled to Viridian City
    Obtained Oak's Parcel
    Traveled to Pallet Town
    Delivered Oak's Parcel
    Caught Pidgey en route to Viridian City
    Deposited Squirtle in PC
    Caught Rattata on Route 22
    Caught Spearow on Route 22
    Traveled through Viridian Forest
    Traveled to Pewter City
    Challenged Brock
    Obtained Boulderbadge (ironically defeated him mainly with a Hyper Fanging Rattata).
    Saved Game.


    End of Day 1 Team:
    Rattata - Male - Lvl. 14
    Spearow - Male - Lvl. 14
    Pidget - Female - Lvl. 15


    D: I also had a Clefairy and a Jigglypuff, who I'll likely catch again, but, in the mean time, that's the progress on the save file. Here's to conquering Brock with two birds and a rodent! Here, here!

    Edit: Rather than making a whole new post when I'm the last post, I figured I'd just update this. XDDD -likes keeping the log- I feel accomplished!

    Traveled through Mt. Moon
    Obtained Dome Fossil
    Captured Clefairy - Female - Lvl. 10
    Traveled to Cerelean City
    Defeated BLUE at Nugget Bridge
    Pidgey Evolved into Pidgeotto

    Traveled to Bill's House
    Destroyed Team Rocket Grunt
    Obtained TM for Dig
    Challenged Misty
    Defeated by Misty
    Challenged Misty
    Defeated by Misty
    Rattata evolved into Raticate
    Challenged Misty (Again!)
    Defeated Misty for the Cascadebadge
    * Epic battle story. Pidgeotto learned Whirlwind, thus I summoned Starmie from the depths of 'surprise power house' and Sand-Attacked it into oblivion. Took it out, and OHKOed Staryu with Raticate's teeth of justice!
    Caught Meowth - Female - Lvl. 12
    Traveled to Vermillion City
    Obtained the Old Rod
    Traded Spearow for Farfetch'd / Ch'ding.
    Obtained Ch'ding - Male - Lvl. 25
