    To start off: This is my first challenge, so take it easy when giving criticism. But it is welcome, considering this is my first challenge :l

    RULES:
    1 - You must use ONLY 3 TYPES of pokemon
    1.5 - One of the types has to be super effective against one, so on with the other 2 types
    (EG: If I used Grass, Water, And Fire, this would be OKAY. Because Grass is good against water, fire is good against grass, and water is good against fire)
    2 - You can only use 3 POKEMON
    3 - Those 3 Pokemon have to be super-effective against eachother (Rule 1.5)
    4 - You can hack these pokemon in if they are not available until after the first gym
    5 - Legendaries ARE okay
    6 - HM slaves are okay as long as you don't use them in battle.
    7 - Emulators are allowed and are recommended due to fast forward buttons
    8 - Gameshark/Code Breaker/Action Replay Codes ARE NOT allowed unless hacking in a pokemon
    9 - When hacking in a pokemon must be same level according to route
    10 - To prevent from hacking in high level pokemon on high lvl pokemon routes, all pokemon must be caught/hacked in BEFORE first gym.
    11 - AS LONG AS A POKEMON HAS 1 TYPE EFFECTIVE AGAINST 1 OTHER, IT CAN BE USED!
    (eg: Fire/Fighting pokemon, can be used in fire, water, grass)

    Types of Pokemon that you can use: (not all the types, some suggestions)

    About the rules, there are a few that are very redundant. To point it out:

  • I've got a quick question. Rule 1.5 says that one type has to be super effective against the next. But rule 3 says the pokemon have to be super effective against each other.

    Does this mean I can use for example: Tangela, Charmeleon, and Gyarados, saying that Water > Fire > Grass > Water? Because though Grass > Water, Tangela is not super effective against Gyarados, due to its part Flying type.

    That being said, rule 3 just says the Pokemon have to be super effective against each other. Would I be allowed to use Torterra, Infernape, and Empoleon? Torterra is super effective against Empoleon (Ground > Steel), Empoleon over Infernape (Water > Fire), and Infernape over Torterra (Fire > Grass). However, it doesn't follow the strict perfect "3 type circle" that Fire, Water, Grass follows.

  • I made a list for you to put into the thread if you'd like to use it. I think I have all of the triangles, though I could be missing a couple.

    Ground, Electric, Water*
    Rock, Bug, Grass
    Dragon, Dragon, Dragon**
    Ghost, Ghost, Ghost**
    Fighting, Dark, Psychic*
    Ground, Steel, Ice ****
    Ground, Ground, Ground**
    Fighting, Ice, Flying
    Ice, Grass, Rock
    Ice, Grass, Ground
    Fire, Ice, Ground****
    Fire, Ice, Rock****
    Fighting, Rock, Flying,
    Fire, Steel, Ground ****
    Psychic, Poison, and Bug***
    Steel, Ground, Ground ****
    Ice, Ground, Ground ****
    Poison, Bug, Psychic ***


    * Includes an immunity
    ** Same type weakness
    *** Generation I only
    **** Imperfect- ie, Ground is 2X Steel, and Steel is 2X Ground.

    erm, nope. Steel is 2x vs Rock, not Ground. Likewise, Ground is 2x vs Rock, not Ground.

    There's probably 10x more combinations if we include dual types... here are few of my additions to the given basic ones:
    Flying, Grass, Rock
    Rock, Ice, Ground
    Steel, Rock, Fire
    Poison, Grass, Ground
    Fire, Grass, Ground

    not to mention that there's only one pure flying pokemon, everything else are secondary flying... so that brings up the question: SECOND typings are counted, right?

    e.g Bug/Flying -> Fighting -> Rock should be acceptable?
