Grinding.

I am not going to post my team as I am typing on my wii atm.

I'd go with Gastrodon. It learns Recover!!!

Yeah Ill try it, thank you a lot. Ill go with Slug. Too bad Glenn isn't coming back =(

 

[Yams]

I am trying to continue, but I lost my save. Can anyone tell me a good Gameboy/GBA emulator for a mac? I cannot find a save feature for the mac version of VBA.

 

[Ninja Tree]

I nearly forgot about this. I'll finish eventually. Not really motivated enough to do this at the time. Give me some guys.

Oh, and for the record, I'm up to Johto.

 

[hqydfnyjcxbshgd]

i yesterday saw some videos on youtube about this challenge and began playing it too. i chose the bug type and started with the crystal version (i know i should have read the rules before starting xD), i'll do the 1st gen later on.

actually i'm in the town with the ghost badge, my team is the following:

l.17 spinarak
poison sting
night shade
scary face
dig

l.23 butterfree
sleep powder
poison powder
stun spore
confusion

l.23 beedrill
poison sting
cut
twinneedle
fury attack

i wasnt able to find any other bugs yet, but i think in the long run i'll definetely need heracross and scyther

 

[Yams]

You could have gotten a Pineco and a Heracross by then. Make sure you get headbutt. I am not sure about Scyther and Pinsir, they are in the bug challenge.

 

[hqydfnyjcxbshgd]

i already headbutted some trees on the route between ecruteak and mahogany but all i found were hordes of spearows, aipoms and ekans =(

but i found a ledyba below ecruteak city and caught a scyther in the contest (and got a berry because i lost xD), so at least i already have a complete team now (i think 5 are enough because i'll soon permanently need slaves for surf or flying on the 6th slot)

Pokemon Diamond "Blog" Part 2: Culling the Growth

After defeating Roark, I made way back to Jubilife, but was stopped by Barry, who told me the next gym was in Eterna City, and then left.

When I arrived at Jubilife, I found the Professor and Lucas being roughed up by some Team Galactic Grunts, so I joined up with Lucas to fight them.

After the battle, I went north, through the cave, and found myself in Floaroma Town. To the east, a little girl said her daddy was being held captive, and asked me to save him. After some trouble, I did, and he mentioned the Balloon Pokemon, which was of no interest to me.

After fighting my way north, I found myself in Eterna Forest. At the entrance, a girl named Cheryl asked if she could come with me through the forest, as she was afraid of Team Galactic, she assured me that she would keep my pokemon healed. I took this as the perfect time to train my team.

After training, it was time to leave and part ways with Cheryl. She thanked me, and I was almost at Eterna City. As I entered town, I was ready for my 2nd gym battle...

[Myzou]

God, bugs are starting to bug me... so much, I'm avoiding them in my normal (not type... just a normal runthrough :P) playthrough of Diamond I'll be starting soon, haha.

For the life of me, I can't remember what to do after Eterna -.-;

 

[aaronburnsyou]

After Eterna, you get the Bike, and cross Mt. Coronet for the first time.

Anyway, I have a small update to present after the few days I've been away. I've made no real porgress through the plot, but I've been training my pokemon.

I probably won't progress past the 4th gym until I get Sunkern to Lv31.
