    Well I made some progress with my Poison Challenge. I defeated misty easily with Ivysaur and Oddish, who is a Gloom now.
    Lt. Surge was easy, as I taught Arbok Dig, which I used to defeat his Pokemon.
    I am currently in Celadon, will buy a Leaf Stone to save for Gloom, and will defeat erika easily.

    Updataroo.

    Beat Lorelei. - Easy.
    Beat Bruce. - Even Easier
    Beat Agatha. - Ah...Was easy the first time...But then I got rid of psychic for blizzard..Harder..But I pulled through.
    Beat Lance. - Took a couple of resets...But I did it.

    Facing rival...

    I just can't beat him...Nearly all of his pokes are against my fighting types..

    Pidgeot - Alakazam - Charizard

    They're the main 3 that I jus can't beat...

    Argh help me...

    And whats worse..I've run out of full restores...If I had enough I could beat him.

    Any tips please?

  • Korova, as a fellow fighting friend, it'd be best to grind yourself silly in Victory Road. You need to survive at least ONE psychic from Alakazam in order to destroy it. Trust me, you need high health and high defenses.

    It was probably a lot easier for me considering I used yellow, but hopefully you can handle it with a lot of grinding.

    Try getting VBA TradeLink to trade one of the Machokes so to evolve it.

  • Also, since Fighting types have high attack stats, why not put Hyper Beam on one of them? It'll knock out Alakazam then you could switch out before it needs to recharge. (I'd suggest Return, but there's only one of those in the game and I like to save my TMs. :P)

  • Alright well..... I got a tad bit wrapped up in the game and forgot that i was actually supposed to post.... in fact I just beat Red.... albeit i had A LOT of luck but still with the right move sets I beathim on my second try.

    E4
    Will- Semi easy i took him out pretty quickly with no fainting.

    Bruno- Same pretty much no Faints here just use Goddess and Milkshake.

    Koga- Easy as pie.... most of his poisoning was annoying but he still didn't pose a true challenge... if memory serves he fainted my milkshakes due to a lucky crit..... jerk....

    Karen- Once agian really not that hard to beat i pretty much wiped the floor with her the only challenge of hers was the gengar.

    Lance- My only real challenge for the E4 but, luckily i had a lot of ice punch tms lying around and I gave half my pokemon ice punch.

    Kanto Gyms

    Surge- Annoying Raichu but once it fainted it was an easy win

    Sabrina- Owned by goddess and shadow ball

    Erika- Grass... psshh luckily I hadent removed all the ice punch moves....

    Kogas daughter whos name escapes me- Easiest one Goliath one shot KOed all of them with return.

    Misty- Nothing major she killed one of my pokemon with her starme but besides that standard win.

    Brock- Ice punch away and a won :D

    Blue(Because i forgot how to get to Blaine)- Most Challenging of them all but after I lost 3 pokemon I finally ended his rain of terror with my new MUNCHIE :D

    Blaine(poor fellow)- Well he was easy I lost one pokemon due to fire blast but still not to hard.

    MT.SILVER CHALLENGE

    Red-
    The only battle I've ever had this much challenge beating... Pikachu was a one shot KO with earthquake from Goliath but then espeon anihilated half my team no problem..... finished him with Goddess who was in turn beaten by Reds Snorelax ( GARRH I HATE HIM)
    2nd try- Well this time I got smart and after grinding each pokemon to level 60 and using strategy I beat him without losing a single pokemon once Snorelax was out fo the way it was a quick sweep ( THANK YOU CRITICAL HIT DYNAMIC PUNCH!)

  • Crystal, COMPLETE!!!!!!

    This was, and probably will be, by far, the most dreaded of the 4 generations I'll play through in this challenge. Why? Because as the Grass type, it's not too easy going up against a Charizard TWICE!!! However, not only is this the first time I beat Red as only one type, but it's also the most underleveled battle I've ever won against him.

    Here's my final team as it stands:

    Meganium Lv50
    gbc154.gif

    -Body Slam
    -Synthesis
    -Earthquake
    -Razor Leaf

    Sunflora Lv49
    gbc192.gif

    -Petal Dance
    -Synthesis
    -Solarbeam
    -Sunny Day

    Bellossom Lv49
    gbc182.gif

    -Petal Dance
    -Flash (Initially for the cave, but it really came in handy against Espeon)
    -Sleep Powder
    -Moonlight

    Exeggutor Lv50
    gbc103.gif

    -Psychic
    -Hypnosis
    -Reflect
    -Egg Bomb

    Vileplume Lv54
    gbc045.gif

    -Petal Dance
    -Acid
    -Moonlight (Glad I did this battle at nighttime)
    -Stun Spore

    Victreebel Lv54
    gbc071.gif

    -Razor Leaf
    -Sludge Bomb
    -Slam
    -Sleep Powder

    Now that Crystal is finally over with, I can head on to Sapphire with my head held high, knowing that the worst of my troubles is finally behind me.
