This is Update #4 of my Ultimate Monotype GRASS Challange! - Kanto-

Spoiler:

[S-HIGHLIGHT]Caught a Tangela[/S-HIGHLIGHT] (named her Medusa) and put her in the Day Care. I might want her for the E4 later…

Surfed all the way down to [S-HIGHLIGHT]Cinnabar Island[/S-HIGHLIGHT], but then trained all of my babies (now officially known as the [S-HIGHLIGHT]Gregarious Grass Gang[/S-HIGHLIGHT]) on Routes 19-21.

I then started exploring the [S-HIGHLIGHT]Cinnabar Mansion[/S-HIGHLIGHT] and found a [S-HIGHLIGHT]Secret Key[/S-HIGHLIGHT]!!

[S-HIGHLIGHT]Evolved Neggy[/S-HIGHLIGHT] into Exeggutor at Lv 48 with a Leaf Stone. (Everyone is done growing :D)

Pokemon Ruby VBA Monotype Challenge

Hi, I'm new to this website, and I would like to tell you that I'm currently doing a monotype fighting challenge on Ruby. This is my team.

Combusken Lv. 18
Shroomish Lv. 15
Makuhita Lv. 8

I am on the second gym, and I will update as soon as I can. I had intended to do fire, but it got overruled fast.

Whoops, I'm playing on an emulator and my computer died. Also, I forgot to save. So, I'm starting my Fighting Mono-type Challenge again and this is my team.

Torchic Lv. 7

I know it's not much, but like I said, I have to start over.

Update #5

Update #5 of my Ultimate Monotype Challenge - Grass! - Kanto, Pokemon Blue

Spoiler:

The first thing I did was [S-HIGHLIGHT]train[/S-HIGHLIGHT] everyone up to Lv 50, just so I won't be horribly behind.

So far, [S-HIGHLIGHT]battling my rival (Blaine) pre-Pokémon League[/S-HIGHLIGHT] has easily been the hardest. Thank goodness that Body Slam paralyzes!!

I [S-HIGHLIGHT]cleared Victory Road[/S-HIGHLIGHT], but not quite ready to take on the Elite Four, I took a detour to the [S-HIGHLIGHT]Power Plant[/S-HIGHLIGHT].

Done with that, I headed [S-HIGHLIGHT]back to Victory Road to train[/S-HIGHLIGHT] my team to at least Lv 53.

[S-HIGHLIGHT]Ran through the Elite Four once[/S-HIGHLIGHT], got all the way to the very last Pokémon (my rival's Charizard) and [S-HIGHLIGHT]lost[/S-HIGHLIGHT].

Back to [S-HIGHLIGHT]grinding in Victory Road[/S-HIGHLIGHT], everyone got to level 54 (except for Parasect, Lv 55)

[S-HIGHLIGHT]Took on the Elite Four again, and I did it!![/S-HIGHLIGHT]

My [S-HIGHLIGHT]Venusaur[/S-HIGHLIGHT] was able to take out [S-HIGHLIGHT]Lorelei[/S-HIGHLIGHT]
[S-HIGHLIGHT]Exeggutor[/S-HIGHLIGHT] took out [S-HIGHLIGHT]Bruno[/S-HIGHLIGHT]
[S-HIGHLIGHT]Parasect[/S-HIGHLIGHT] took care of [S-HIGHLIGHT]Agatha[/S-HIGHLIGHT]
And [S-HIGHLIGHT]Victreebel[/S-HIGHLIGHT] took care of [S-HIGHLIGHT]Lance[/S-HIGHLIGHT]!

(It was kind of beautiful how well that worked out)
​

My team then all came together to take on [S-HIGHLIGHT]my Rival (Blaine) The Champion. AND WE WON.[/S-HIGHLIGHT]
View attachment 62644
I think it was quite poetic how I was able to start with Bulbasaur and end with Venusaur.

Things I learned along the way:

Spoiler:

[FONT=&quot]Moves I thought I would hate turned out to be some of my favorites to use: Parasect's[/FONT][S-HIGHLIGHT] Leech Life[/S-HIGHLIGHT][FONT=&quot] and Empiflor's [/FONT][S-HIGHLIGHT]Wrap[/S-HIGHLIGHT][FONT=&quot]. Also, I thought I would hate [/FONT][S-HIGHLIGHT]Paras/Parasect[/S-HIGHLIGHT][FONT=&quot], but it is [/FONT][S-HIGHLIGHT]easily one of my favorites[/S-HIGHLIGHT][FONT=&quot] now. [/FONT]

NOW I AM ALL DONE WITH KANTO. I AM 1/5 DONE WITH MY GRASS MONOTYPE CHALLENGE!!

It is now time to travel to Johto, my favorite region... :)

 

[649]

Oh hey guys heres another completed monotype. And only two update in between this one and the last! I sure am on a roll!

This time it's Dragon on Silver, and I'm officially making it an Ultimate Monotype. Next up, Sapphire.

Item: Dragon Fang
Surf
Rest
Sleep Talk
Dragonbreath

Item: Nevermeltice
Waterfall
Icy Wind
Swagger
Whirlpool

Item: Quick Claw
Hydro Pump
Twister
Rain Dance
Agility

It was sort of easy. I hacked in Horsea at the beginning, and caught two other Horseas in Whirl Islands. I had to keep catching Horseas, to get the three Dragon Scales I needed. The two Horseas weren't even underleveled. Seriously, what is wrong with Johto's trainers? They're all so underleveled.

Oh right and this:

Team remains the same, but all at lv. 57 this time. lv. 57?! you might say. Well, it actually wasn't that hard, I just set up Rain Dance and kept using water moves for Pikachu, Espeon, and Charizard, with a Swagger for Snorlax, Swagger + Dragonbreath for Blastiose, and Icy Wind for Exeggutor.

Ultimate Mono Fighting Challenge

People, I think I'm going to have to revise my ultimate mono fight. Because your first fighting type in Johto is a trade in goldenrod city, i'm going to use a program called advance starter that lets you pick out your and your rival's starters. also, i'm going to do gold version w/ advance starter on the vba instead of silver on the gb because of the fighting problem. I don't have to use A.S. on ruby, pt, and black because the fire guys evolve into fighting types. also, im gonna start over on lg with the choices of poliwag, machop, and mankey. my rival gets pidgey, spearow, or doduo, respectively.

 

[Pikabowser123]

First of all, you don't need to do that for LeafGreen, since Mankey is available right away (Rt 22 in FR/LG as well as Yellow).

Secondly, Johto gives you Poliwag right at the start in Crystal (Rts 30 and 31 in the grass), so use that game instead. You can hack in a Water Stone later if you want as well, since it's for the purpose of evolving, and that's acceptable.

The rules say hacking/trading in a beginning pokemon is only permitted for certain types, and Fighting type doesn't need hacking in any region, since apart from the first two regions, your Fire starter is part Fighting.

 

[Feraligatr13]

To jdthebud- Thanks for the advice, I didn't even consider Crystal.

ok.... i will go back to what i was doing on lg, with primeape, machop, and diglett....
