I don't know much about Black/White's storyline, so you'll have to tell me if this is okay. Can I just say "Black and White challenges end after you defeat the champion"?

 

[stargate1995]

yes that should be fine as you don't verse the champion until you rematch the pokemon league, after finishing the main storyline.

 

[wingman11]

Of course, that becomes pretty dang hard. The Elite Four is between levels 48 and 50 the first time; they jump all the way up to 71-73 when you face them the second time. My Doryuuzu was level 76 and I had a hard time doing anything. I had to use all my Rare Candies to get him to level 84, and even then it was impossibly hard to win. I think that Black and White will become the death of any Ultimate Solo Challenge if that is the case.

Ahh yes but you didn't go explore those other 3 towns, theres enough training to get you up to the right level to fight them, anyway Metagross pretty much covers all of there teams easily(not to sure about the champion but isn't he fighting based?) anyway I'll probably have more problems doing Kabutops then doing Metagross.

EDIT: Ok so looked it up the champion is mixed(although he has 3 bug types) and doesn't have any fighting types >.<.

Challenge complete woot

I must say the game was fairly easy up until the elite four rematch which was insane, however it would have been so much easier had I not forgotten to restock on revives before rematching them. I ended up having to vs them all with only 2 revives and 2 max revives making it very hard. BTW the champions Ulgamoth is a total beast XD was the hardest thing to take down.

Well anyway I'm glad I did this and that I can now feel that Metagross's solo days can be put to rest(at least until they come up with a new game :P), but this doesn't mean I'm gonna stop using Metagross on my teams. I mean before this challenge I had a 2 lvl 100 Metagross's one of which shiny(chained) but now I have soon to be 5 lvl 100 Metagross(would be 7 but hoenn and kanto where emulated) honestly I just can't stop training them!

I think I wont do the Black part of my previous Kabutops run until awhile after Christmas as this is my second playthrough of Black within a week and can't be bothered playing through again right now.

Large Update

Well I went to my Grandma's house over the weekend and managed to play quite a bit on the drive up. I took some notes on what happened so I could have a semi-meaningful update.

We left off chillen by Eterna Forest. Well the forest was easy and I gained quite a bit of levels there. Since Eve was a bit overleveled I went straight for the Eterna gym and smashed her. Two badges down, six to go!

Killed off the grunts, trained against the surrounding trainers. Grabbed a Pokemon egg and took off down Cycling Road. That trip was pretty easy too.

I passed through mount Cornet and reached Hearthome city. No gym battle here yet so I got my Tuxedo and took off towards Veilstone.

On the long way there I made a stop in Solaceon and explored the ruins, as well as the Lost Tower for the HM strenght? I believe that was the one.

Continuing decimating trainers on my route to Veilstone, Eve reached level 40 and evolved into Drapion. Now those stats really started to shine. I reached Veilstone, healed and challenged the gym leader. I had doubts that this fight would go easy and was concerned about the Lucario, but because Eve has awesome defense I made it through pretty quickly. Next I helped Dawn get her Pokedex back and got the HM Fly. Onwards to Pastoria City.

The route was uneventful. In Pastoria I used the move re-learned to teach Eve Ice Fang, I also realized I forgot to get the Earthquake TM, so I'll have to backtrack for that later. The gym was pretty boring too. Eve was was overleveled for it.

Then I chased off a grunt. Saved after I beat him down. Well I suppose I'll head to Hearthome next since I have that SecretPotion now.....

Current Team:
Eve the Drapion
Level 45
Adamant Natured
Item: Quick Claw
Ability: Battle Armor
Attack: 113 Defense 120: Sp. Attack: 62 Sp. Defense: 87 Speed: 108
