  • Well, the OP will hopefully get updated sometime or other in the near future, it has been neglected, I will give you that.

    I don't really think you can do that with FR/LG, you're supposed to catch the pokemon in game, and no trading/hacking is allowed for fire type, so yeah. If you really want Magmar, use LeafGreen. You'll also get a chance to use Magmar/Growlithe/Vulpix in later games as well.

    As for updates, just post them when you can. I also like to post screenshots of gyms and E4 and stuff, but it's purely optional. What you've done so far is perfectly fine.

    By the way, Myrrhman, whenever the OP gets updated, we should prolly clarify the hacking rules, a lot of people get confused (me included!) when the first available pokemon is after a couple gyms in certain games but is not Dragon or Ice or something.

    And that reminds me, I wanted to ask if hacking in Dratini for my Dragon type run on White (in the beginning) was ok, since I want to run with more than three pokemon for the first part of the game.
    i didnt mean trading i meant litterally the roms have identically save files,you can litterally rename the save file and leaf green can load it(only works for the jap rleases thoughimporting the battery(on any emu) works on usa release) but yeh i guess ill run with growlithe and flareon this run then

    I like your party actually, that is almost the exact same of what I did on my Pokemon BLUE years ago.

    I no longer have the older games on Gameboys, the oldest I have is Pokemon Diamond.. :(

    Will it be alright to start from here instead, or do I have to get the Gameboy games first to do this challenge?

    well you as long as didnt use even one non poison type in battle throughout the game there was no timelimit in the rules on the first page(but tbh if you do emulated red you can do it in one day like i did-infact i did gsc in one day also xD--if you can run pokemon BW at 95% speed without fameskip on desmume,then you can run rby/gsc at around 1500% turbo speed)

    Hmm... here's what I would try. I'm in the middle of a Solo Run with a Weedle and just recently got through the LeafGreen E4. Go into your inventory and sell all the TMs you're not using. A good chunk of them get you $1500. Also sell any vitamins you're not using, that'll get you $4900 each. With the money you get, go and buy Hyper Potions, X Attack, X Defense, and Guard Spec. The X items make this way easier. Personally, I didn't need them until Lance, but my Weedle was level 90. If you still don't have enough money, use the Vs. Seeker to go rematch trainers. Not only will this get you money, but it'll level up your pokemon. They do look underleveled for the E4.

    Quote people by clicking the quote button in the bottom right corner of their post. The Vs. Seeker is in the Vermillion City Pokemon Center, talk to one of the other people in there. And thanks! I played 45+ hours on that file before I finally beat the E4.

    So I have no clue where I last left off so I will just go on from here.

    I just stumbled apon the team aqua people and they are trying to fight me,
    how cute. Wait so who were those weird people who hate team aqua. I dont
    like them they are stealing my job. Anyways through the skipped text I heard
    something about a meteorite. Time to investigate!

    So I go to Mt. Chimney and guess what two teams are here. If you said the
    crappy ones congratulations you win. I have the longest fight ever with
    Aqua's boss and eventually win. So I continue onward.

    Now in Lavaridge Town I fight a gym of the fire type. This should be easy
    enough. I beat Flannery and am now heading somewhere. Before I leave though
    I get ambushed by May and am told to head to Petalburg gym.

    So I head to Petalburg and the battle begins against my dad's gym. So Dad
    was easy to beat. the Salckings gave me a nice free turn.

    I catch a zigzagoon for surf and then continue with my game.
    On my way to the next destination Empathy evolved into Gardevoir.

    While going through the routes I stumble upon Team Aqua and take them down.
    Right after that rival battle. Yay...

    Now I am in Fortree going for this badge. Firest though I meet Steven for the
    Devon scope. The gym was an easy win. 6 badges down 2 and the elite 4 left.

    Team:

    Mystic level 38 Alakazam
    Empathy level 35 Gardevoir
    Sage level 20 Alakazam

    HM Slaves:

    Treeko
    Tailow
    Zigzagoon

    Thanks again for the tips, and I guess it would take awhile to beat the E4 with a Weedle.
    Wait, everywhere I go with trainers, I use the vs seeker and it Oak says now is not the time to use that. why?
    Never mind, i got it working.
