BREAKINGBEN April 5th, 2008 5:50 PM

PLEASE READ THIS. IN ADDITION TO THESE RULES, BONUS RULES HAVE BEEN PLACED ON PAGE THREE FOR YOU TO READ. ALSO, FOR THOSE WHO STILL WANT TO BE IN THIS CHALLENGE, THERE IS HOPE. A WAITING LIST HAS BEEN MADE, YOU CAN READ MORE IN DEPTH ON THIS ON PAGE 6... THANK YOU!

Welcome to the Monotype challenge… Firered Leafgreen style!

Well, the title says all. This is a Monotype challenge for the remakes of two of the greatest and most innovative games ever created. Since Darkjagwar made one of these for the originals… I guess you can call this remake of a remake Monotype challenge XD.

Anyway, I made this after A.) The popularity of the other challenge for RSE (yes I also saw the ones on the Metal/Color boards XD), and B.) Many people didn’t get to do the other one.

Once again, credit to DJ for making this whole thing possible –cries-.

RULE TIME!:

-Dual types are allowed as long as that Pokemon has that type

-If the starter is not that type Gameshark is allowed ONCE to obtain a Pokemon of that type

-HM Slaves can be used only for their HM and to catch weak wild Pokemon (they can only gain one level ON ACCIDENT! After that you must release them)

-No Flying type Teams, as it is not a regular type

-No Dragon, Ice, or Ghost types, as they are too uncommon

-NO CHEATING…. PERIOD!

-You may trade for evolution

-No duplicate species (You can’t have a team with six Ponytas… I’m sorry)

-The challenge will end after you beat the E4… unless I find a good excuse to make you all do the Sevii Islands as well (and you probably will have to beat the E4 again after they leveled up).

-No legendaries, as they are cheap and mean

-There are separate Rock/Ground teams

-Post your progress

Example:

Name- Ryan
Type-Electric (SORRY DJ!!!)

-Started off with Bulbasaur (Hehe, Gary be pwnd)

Yes you can. Like you can either GET an abra from another LG/FR cartridge... and you can also trade to evolve the Kadabra.

romanwhiz April 5th, 2008 6:57 PM

BerserkPaladin April 5th, 2008 7:34 PM

I don't know y I am going to do this, but here goes nothing.

Name: Charcoal
Type: Fire

So let me get something right, you have to have a Pokemon with the Fire Type in your team. So I can't have a Pikachu (example) in my team.

I believe so, only Charmander, Ponyta, fire etc...
but Pikachu may be used as a HM slave [i.e. Flash]
Pikachu can't battle, but can assist in capturing pokemon though.

if i got that right
i hope so.

BerserkPaladin April 5th, 2008 7:41 PM

Ok I understand now. Just BREAKINGBEN made it sound so confusing.

romanwhiz April 5th, 2008 11:33 PM

[woohoo]
I think you are missing the point of the task.
i can understand Gamesharking Beldum somewhat.
but Abra is easily catchable.
so is Drowzee!
there really is no need to import all of your pokemon.
it defeats the purpose of this challenge
your using shortcuts way too much, your cheating
.

i miss typed that part let me fix that.. typed i only traded abra so i can train it for it to evolve to kadabra then trade it back for alakazam
but i caught drowzee at MT. moon

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 6:48 AM

OK, first things' first. Woohoo, you ARE cheating... Beldum's evo line is NOT in he Kanto dex, therefore you may NOT use Metang. Also, as far as I'm concerned, Drowzee is NOT obtainable in Mt. Moon. I will allow you to keep it, but you DO have to get rid of Metang.

Romanwhiz... I am despising you right now. I fell asleep for a couple hours, and you are already at FUCHSIA?!!? I'M HAVING TROUBLE LEVELING UP PIKA TO 20!... lol. Nice work though :)

UPDATE!

-Trained Pika to L: 12
-EASILY Beat GARY
-Made my way through Viridian Forest, leveling up to 15
-Beat the Trainer in Brock's GYM (Spammed Quick Attack)
-I am currently Training PIKA to 20 (SLAM)

Take me off I have not enough time

Naito April 6th, 2008 10:22 AM

Can I be Psychic please?

I just need to find working GS codes for VBA now, lol.

Edit: The codes are to get a Drowzee because Hypno is pwn.

Edit 2: After going through about ten different GS and Codebreaker codes, none of them worked. Can anyone supply one to get a Drowzee in Fire Red 1.0 and Fire Red 1.1?

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 11:17 AM

All right, you are all signed up :). (Jeez, at this rate the sign-ups will be done by tonight!)

I have some updates here >.>

-I made it to Vermillion with ease, dodging most trainers so I can leave them for Voltorb
-Obtained the Bike Voucher (Yay, bikey!!!)
-Returned to Cerulean to get the Bike
-Made it through the whole S.S. Anne, tanking it with my Pikachu :)
-Beat Gary with four THUNDERBOLTS... again
-Taught Cut to my emo Charmander
-Returned to Cerulean... again... to go near Rock Tunnel and catch a Voltorb (I really need one!)
-I am now battling the trainers in Surge's GYM

TEAM:
Pikachu L: 36 (Woah...) HP 83
-Dig (Tee-hee, tough luck Surgie)
-Slam (GAA! IT MISSES EVERY STINKIN' TIME!!)
-Quick Attack
-Thunderbolt (<3)

Lynnx April 6th, 2008 11:27 AM

I've started!

Restarted, chose Bulbasaur (nicknamed him Bulby) for an HM slave, caught a Rattata and a Pidgey.

Team-to-be-before-Elite-Four:

Clefable, Pidgeot, Wigglytuff, Snorlax, Persian, Eevee/Chansey (if I can catch one)

Team now: Bulby LV 10, Pipa (Pidgey) LV 10, Ratti (Rattata) LV 9.

Naito April 6th, 2008 11:28 AM

Lol, you're pretty powerful... But that's the result of playing through possibly the first four badges with just a Pikachu.

Too bad Electrike/Manectric is a Hoenn poke, or else you could of taught it Flamethrower...

Anyways, I'm still searching for Drowzee codes, with no luck. None end up working with my ROM.

Right now, this is my team.

"Nautilus" The Squirtle Lv. 9
Hasty Nature

Tackle
Growl
Bubble

Lol, yeah, but I JUST caught a Voltorb to add to my team :)... and I was planning on giving my Electabuzz Psychic >.> <.<. Also, I needed Pika to be at 20 for Brock.

My first Monotype challenge was weird though, I played through 4 badges with only a Charizard and it got to 43 before I FINALLY caught a Growlithe :).

Anyway, here is a very minor update.

-Made it through the Rock tunnel route, only battling three trainers
-Caught a Voltorb on my third try
-Going back to Surge's GYM
-Probably going to train Volt to about 20-25

TEAM:
Pikachu L: 38 HP 87
-Dig
-Slam
-Quick Attack
-Thunderbolt (still <3)

Voltorb L: 14 HP 35
-Charge
-Tackle
-Screech

Naito April 6th, 2008 11:56 AM

Now that I have a Drowzee, here's a minor update.

Spoiler:

- Yuna started her journey

- Named Squirtle "Nautilus"
- Battled Henry's Level 5 Bulbasaur

- Fought Level 3 Rattata, Nautilus grew to level 6!
- Fought Level 4 Pidgey.

That's it right now. My later updates will instead include screenshots.

Sandshrew April 6th, 2008 12:26 PM

hey, can i get in on this too? It sounds like fun!
I'd like to put down for fighting. (what a challenge, eh?)

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 12:56 PM

  • withdrew potion from computer.
  • selected charmander.
  • battled toru, i lost.
  • delivered oaks parcel.
  • caught 2 mankeys.
  • trained them both up to lvl 10.

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 1:02 PM

I just want to make sure you know, but you can only have one of each species. You can have a Mankey and a Primeape on your team, but you cannot have two Mankeys or two Primeapes.

woooooohooooooooooooo April 6th, 2008 1:22 PM

hmm
im too bored so i think i'd like to sign up again but psychic was too much of a hassle for me so if you dont mind can i sign up for bug?
it'll be easier and i guess less cheating:P

Espeon Master April 6th, 2008 1:26 PM

May I sign up for the Bug Type team? I'm in the mood for a challange. =)

edit: nevermind, I guess somebody just asked for it. Is anything left?

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 1:28 PM

O.o, bug was JUST taken before you. Grass and Rock are the only ones open if you want to take those.

FOR THOSE OF YOU ALREADY TAKING THE CHALLENGE: I am going to put up a poll that is based on this challenge, please vote in it so I can decide what to do... thank you for your cooperation!

Espeon Master April 6th, 2008 1:33 PM

Pokemondude23 wanted grass I think (see top of this page)

So I guess I'll take rock then.

I don't have a gameshark, but would it be ok to trade, say, a rhyhorn or something over from another game to use as a starter?

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 1:38 PM

Pokemondude23 was apart of this challenge, but then he dropped out. It's OK if you want to be the grass type.

But if you want to stay with Rock, then yes you can trade over a Geodude (or something) to use as a starter, unless you want to wait until Mt. Moon to catch a Geo... its all up to you.

woooooohooooooooooooo April 6th, 2008 1:43 PM

kk heres my minor up date
-woohooo(my char)
chose charmander
-owned squrtle
and got oaks parcel
-im also gonna get the gameshark code for a scyther
since i cant get him until real later
and i dont want to use charmander
for any other fights

Naito April 6th, 2008 1:43 PM

Still training Drowzee with the help of Squirtle atm. I plan to have them both fight Rival O'Henry, but Drowzee needs to be around level 10 since his only two decent moves until level 18 are Pound and Hypnosis.

Oh and I'll continue after E4 and even do Deoxys and Lugia/Ho-Oh battles, if you want.

Espeon Master April 6th, 2008 1:47 PM

I think I'll stick with rock and I'll start my game in a few minutes =)

Phish April 6th, 2008 1:54 PM

Heres what I have done:

Insted of trading over pokemon, I decided to wait until route 4 to get a ground pokemon. I chose Bulbasaur to make it easier. I avoided every trainer battle I could and just fought wild pokemon so I could get vine whip at lvl 10. I beat Brock easily and tried to avoid all of the trainers I could on route 3. I made it to the end of route 3 and caught a lvl 7 Nidorana. Im going to deposit my lvl 13 Bulbasaur until I get cut. I am not catching a Nidorino because I consider Nidoking and Nidoqueen the same family of pokemon and I am trying to make this a real challange.

Nidorana lvl 7
-Growl
-Scratch

Theres a good chance I will be doing the Sevii Islands before the elite four

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 1:57 PM

You CAN have Nido king/queen on your team if you want (see romanwhiz's team). Its up to you if you want them.

OK folks, the poll is up... so PLEASE vote in it. You can only vote for one option, and please don't vote for the last one ^.^

Phish April 6th, 2008 2:21 PM

I know I can have them both, I just feel it's a bit cheap. I may pick one up in the Safari Zone, for later in the game but it's unfair to have both early in the game

Espeon Master April 6th, 2008 2:28 PM

Alright, here I go:

Name: Chandra
Type: Rock

-Restarted my Leafgreen version
-Chose Bulbasaur as a starter (so my life won't be extremely difficult)
-Retrieved Oak's Parcel
-Captured a Rattata
-Returned to Viridian City
-Traded Ratatta to Firered in order to obtain Rhyhorn

Naito April 6th, 2008 2:37 PM

Um is it possible that when I get Eevee, I could trade it over to Emerald 386 and evolve it into an Espeon then trade it back? If not, it's ok. Just that this is one of the worthwhile Eeveelutions, lol.

Edit: I MASSACARED Gary's Pidgey and his Bulbasaur with Drowzee's Disable. All they could do was Growl/Sand-Attack me, but I'd Hypnosis them and spam Pound.

woooooohooooooooooooo April 6th, 2008 2:39 PM

my update =]
After i caught my scyther
i went to viridian forest to own
i caught krikly(caterpie) and michab(weedle)

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 2:54 PM

You can have the Espeon after you get the national dex... that is if the majority votes for the challenge to go through the Sevii Islands and the E4 (which it probably will) :). ALSO: IF WE DO DO THAT PART (AND YES WE PROLLY WILL) THEN YOU MUST HAVE 60 OWNED IN YOUR DEX TO KEEP GOING.... THAT WILL BE ALL :)

Update?

-Obtained the Old Rod from the Fishing Guru
-Obtained Flash from Prof.'s AIDE
-Traded my Spearow for Ch'ding (Fly slave >.>)
-Trained Volt to 25 (needs to be 30)
-Had him obliterate the trainers leading up to Vermillion
-I guess I am going to beat Surge now :)
-Well, 3 digs later and I have the THUNDERBADGE!!
-He gave me Shockwave (My fav move) and some more cash (MOAR!!!)
-More training for Volt and then.. *shudders* Rock Tunnel

Naito April 6th, 2008 4:12 PM

Oh, well thanks... Wait... You can get National Dex by trading to R/S/E with the machine, but I'll wait till I meet the standard requirements.

Epic Update 1

- Trained for Rival Battle 2, Squirtle became Level 11 while training Drowzee.
- Beat PKMN Rival O'Henry, and Drowzee disabled his team. Semipermanently.
- Proceeded through Viridian Forest, fighting thousands of Metapods and Pikachus.
- Drowzee became Level 13 and learned Confusion, my saving grace.
- Challenged Brock's slave. Won.
- Fought Brock, hypnotized his Pokemon then confused them. I won.
- Received Running Shoes from Prof. Oak's Aide.
- Prepares to fight the onslaught of trainers and then go into Mt. Moon.

Seriously, I love that Drowzee. It has 26 IVs in ATK and 31 Sp. DEF. Plus like 30 in Sp. ATK. So training it is fun and isn't as boring as some other Pokemon, because of how strong it is.

superaipom April 6th, 2008 4:13 PM

Along the way, meowth and magikarp were caught. (meowth-HM SLAVE, and magikarp in daycare, im gonna get me a gyrados!!!)
Boarded S.S. Anne, told Gary, got cut, and taught it to meowth.
Beat LT Surge surprisingly on 2nd time with only wartortle.
Went all the back to route 2 to obtain flash from Oaks Aide.
Had to catch 6 more random pokemon (needed 10 for flash)
Headed back to cerulean to go through rock tunnel.

I just jot down what i just did. Thats it.

Naito April 6th, 2008 4:35 PM

I'm not even up to Mt. Moon and Drowzee is level 17. I'm pretty sure I'll beat Misty easily. After all, Hypno is one of the Kings/Queens of Special Walling.

And wow, only Grass is left. Someone probably will take it by tomorrow afternoon, though. I'm just glad I got Psychic.

Dang, that's pretty nice. My team in my cartridge LG is only level 28 and I'm up to Fuscia City already.

Anyways, I got a Hypno, yay.

EDIT:

No screenshots this time, boohoo.

- Bought Magikarp (Strength/Surf/Waterfall/Rock Smash slave if it can learn all of those)
- Traveled through Mt. Moon, beat the Rockets.
- Picked Dome Fossil from the crazy Rocket Nerd.
- Entered Cerulean City
- Beat PKMN Rival O'Henry
- Beat Nugget Bridge
- Xelos my Drowzee evolved into Hypno
- Saved Bill from a life of Pokemonhood
- Got the S.S. Ticket from Bill
- Caught Abra, named it "Felix."
- Fought Misty with Felix in first slot, won.
- Felix became level 15, one more level until evolution

That's pretty much it. I plan to train Magikarp to get another Pokedex entry, Gyarados. I'll evolve Squirtle and then catch a Meowth as a Flash/Cut slave, evolve that into Persian.

Oh, it was an EPIC battle... (Spamming Slam XD). And those levels are nothing... I had four lvl 50s on my squad when I beat Koga (trained on cycling road AND Silence Bridge).

Naito April 6th, 2008 6:25 PM

I have my Hypno spam Headbutt now. After closer inspection, there's 31 IVs in ATK and SP. ATK, so it's good for anything.

romanwhiz April 6th, 2008 6:25 PM

Wow, my Roriz was going to evolve into a Crobat.....
but a ? stopped it.
i think i have to have the National Dex for it to evolve ;_;

Yea, in FR/LG they made it that non-Kanto pokes can't evolve and Kanto pokes can't evolve into non-Kanto ones until the National Dex. It sucks a lot, though.

BREAKINGBEN April 6th, 2008 6:46 PM

OK, seeing as though most of you have already voted, and the Majority went to the tougher challenge, I guess there will be more rules.

BONUS RULES:
-After you beat the E4 the FIRST time, post your Party, time it took you to beat it, and the number of Pokes owned in the Dex

-Catch any amount of Pokemon you need to, then continue with obtaining the Nat. Dex

-It is recommended that you do Bill's Sevii Island quest BEFORE the E4 (first time)

-Do any quest on the Seven Islands

-You may add any Pokemon from the other regions, as long as they are your type

-I don't really want you trading in others from other games, but you can trade in ONE from the outside, and they must be level 65 or under

-You MAY... MAY use ONE Pokemon that is NOT your type to beat the E4 a second type, under certain conditions
-*You cannot trade in any Pokemon from the outside if you use this rule
-*This Pokemon MUST have a move of your type (T-tar Thunderbolt :))
-*You CANNOT use legendaries, Flying, Dragon, Ice, or Ghost types

-When you are done with the Seven Islands, post your Team, Time, and any other info. (Owned # is not necessary)

-You must then beat the new and improved E4

-After that, you have beaten the Monotype Challenge! Post your FINAL Team, FINAL Time, and any other comments about this challenge


EDIT: I just have to say, WOW. I think this is the fastest thread to 72 replies... about 24 hours later and here we are with all of these. Congrats guys!!! (and gals :))!

Naito April 7th, 2008 1:57 AM

Nooo, I have to restart... The encounter code I used caused the ROM to be infected with a broken box. If I go into the PC, all the boxes are filled with ?s and bad eggs that suddenly crash the ROM. And I was just up to Celadon as well!

Lynnx April 7th, 2008 3:37 AM

I'm back!!!

After catching Pipa and Ratti, trained until I beat Gary. Then finished Viridian Forest and beat Brock, which was not easy with a Pidgey and a Rattata. By which time team was:


Rattata (Ratti) LV 20, Hasty Nature, Ability Run Away
Moves: Tackle, Quick Attack, Hyper Fang, Tail Whip


Pidgey (Pipa) LV 20, Rash Nature, Ability Keen Eye
Moves: Tackle, Sand-Attack, Gust, Quick Attack


Bulbasaur (Bulby) LV 5, Mild Nature, Ability Overgrow
Moves: Tackle, Tail Whip

Also caught a Mankey, Pikachu, Caterpie, Metapod, Weedle and Kakuna.

Then headed to Mount Moon, caught a Jigglypuff (Jiggly) and a Clefairy (Cleffa.) About to head through Mt. Moon to Cerulean after I train Jiggly and Cleffa to LV 18 or so.

How's everyone else doing? :D

Phish April 7th, 2008 5:32 AM

-*This Pokemon MUST have a move of your type

Does my Nidoqueen have to follow that rule because she doesn't learn any Ground type moves?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Game: Leaf Green
Playing Time: 2:14

After pretty much taking out every trainer in Mt. Moon, Nidorana grew to level 22 and then I evolved it with the Moon Stone. On Route 4 I caught a Sandshrew at level 10. I trained a little and just beat Gary.

Nidoqueen lvl 22
-Bite
-Body Slam
-Double Kick
-Tail Whip

Sandshrew lvl 14
-Scratch
-Defense Curl
-Thief
-Sand-Attack

BREAKINGBEN April 7th, 2008 12:51 PM

She is already part Ground, so no. The rule does NOT apply to her.

Anyways, I have a few updates of my own >.>:

-Went through Rock tunnel
-Not many problems, had to go back and heal about half way through
-Pika and Elec leveled up (twice? I think?)
-Went to Pokemon Tower and beat GARY
-Went through Route (6?) only facing one trainer
-Caught a Growly (For dex :))
-Arrived in Celadon
-Got Tea from Lady
-Gave it to the Guard
-Got Eevee from the roof
-Evolved it into Jolteon
-Evolved Pika into Raichu

can i trade a metal coat from leaf green to here so i can evolve my scyther?

BREAKINGBEN April 7th, 2008 3:07 PM

Since you are doing BUG, you cannot use your Charmander, unless you want him to be your ONLY other type AFTER you reach the Sevii Islands (SEE PAGE 3 FOR BONUS RULEZ).

Since Scizor IS part bug, you can trade and trade back to evolve Scyther after you get the NAT Dex.

They are the Islands that you can access after you get the Rainbow Pass from Cecil, which is after Bill invites you to go to island one.

You can just state what type you would like to train. Unfortunately Fire type is already taken by BeserkPaladin.
The only type currently available is the Grass type.

BreakingBen posted additional rules to ease the battling process for the Elite 4.
If you will do Grass, then you may have ONE Pokemon that is not the type to help. But that Pokemon must have a move that corresponds with your type.
[i.e. a Gengar is not a grass type, but you can use him if you teach him Giga Drain.]

You don't have to post the entire save file, but screen shots will do.

BeserkPaladin, why are you gamesharking pokemon? It was already stated that you can't use non-Kanto pokemon! Plus, you already have a fire type.

That is against the rules, my friend.
Woohoo was not allowed to import a
Beldum into the game, and you are unable to do the same with Cyndaquil.

and so is the
Houndour, if i am not mistaken.
the whole idea of importing something into the game is for RARE Pokemon types that are unavailable in the beginning of the game.


Here are the types available in the game

Normal- Pidgey,Rattata, andClefairy are all easily found early in the game.
No need to Gameshark.

Fire- You start with Charmander, and he has a strong Poke-evolution. In my opinion he is the strongest starter. I have taken the first 3 Gym's with him alone in the past. He learns Metal Claw early, for against Brock, and he can learn Dig to go against Lt. Surge. It will take some patience, but honestly there is no need to Gameshark.

Water- Squirtle is a starter, plus Magikarp is available before Mt. Moon and you can fish in Vermillion. No need to Gameshark.

Grass- Bulbasaur is a starter, with Oddish and Bellsprout available in Cerulean Cape.
No need to Gameshark.

Poison- Bulbasaur is part Poison also, plus Nidoran M/F are available early too. No need to Gameshark.

Bug- Butterfree and Beedrill are obtainable via evolution, and Paras is caught at Mt. Moon. No need to Gameshark.

Rock & Ground- Both are only obtainable earliest in Mt. Moon with Geodude and Onix. No need to Gameshark.


Fighting- Very rare, you might find a Mankey on Route 22, but Fighting Pokemon are hard to come by. This is an instance that a Gamesharking a Pokemon would be understandable.

Psychic- Another rare type. the closest Pokemon you can catch would be Abra found near Cerulean Cape. But that is a long distance, and it is reasonable to cheat in a Psychic poke in the early game.

Electric- Pikachu is found early in the game, Viridian Forest. but Pikachu is one of few Electric types in the game. It would be understandable to import an electric poke into the game. Electric pokes' are hard to train. That's why I'm impressed that BreakingBen has come this far. This is a CHALLENGE, folks. It is supposed to test you and your Poke types. BreakingBen has done exceedingly well in this. With only Pikachu available, he trained to lvl 20 before beating Brock. And the nearest electric Pokemon Voltorb would not be available till after the 3rd Gym!!

Other than that, the rest should take the Monotype Challenge for what it really is, a challenge.

Don't cheat because it get's a little hard. Try for it. You can do it.

:disappoinWhy can't i take fire type.And could you please explain what you meant by "berserk paladin has already taken fire type".

Berserk Paladin has already claimed the fire type for their monotype challenge. The Fire type is already taken.

Update! :D

Trained Cleffa and Jiggly to LV 20, made way through Mt. Moon. Caught a Paras, Geodude and Zubat for the Dex. Currently in Cerulean City, about to challenge Misty and/or Gary.

Edit: Oh, yes. Team is Ratta LV 23, Cleffa LV 24, Pipa LV 23, Ratta LV 22, Bulby LV 6.

BREAKINGBEN April 8th, 2008 12:46 PM

OK, I see some confusion in this challenge >.>.

BP: As romanwhiz stated before, you cannot import/use non-Kanto Pokes until AFTER you get the National dex. You can deposit the Houndour until you get it (If you need any help on which Pokemon to use, look at the R/B Monotype Challenge in the Metal/Color Board and look at my posts. It isn't hard, just demanding ;)).

As for the diff. Pokemon type thing, that will only be available to you AFTER you beat the Sevii Islands Quest (I implemented that rule to make it easier after the E4 trained a bit).

BP... again: Tee-hee... a lot of people want your spot ^.^

Borax-as absolmaster said before, the Fire type has already been claimed. Grass type is still open, and since you PM'd me, I will give it to you.

FOR ALL IN THE CHALLENGE: You MUST update at least twice a week (due to popularity) or else your spot will be overtaken by the next person waiting.

Romanwhiz: Flattery will get you no where... except on my friends list!!!! ^.^

Anyway, more Updates!:

Haven't posted for a while, so here I go:

Monday:
-Was able to beat rival's pidgey and charmander with ease
-Made it through Viridian Forest
-Trained Rhyhorn up a bunch of levels, he was now level 13
-Took on Brock. This was tough, as Rhyhorn was no longer cooperating and his attacks (horn attack, stomp, tail whip) all did little damage. It took at least 20 minutes and a ton of potions before I actually defeated him.
-Stocked up on items, healed, and headed for mt. moon
-Was easily able to find a lv. 10 Geodude, which I captured and nicknamed
-Saved + turned of the game for the night

Today:
-Have begun training Geodude
-Still playing...

Current team:

Rhyhorn (nn:Coryn) Lv. 18
-Horn Attack
-Tail Whip
-Stomp
-Fury Attack

Geodude (nn:Goroun) Lv. 11
-Tackle

-Rock Throw

Bulbasaur Lv. 9 (Kept around to be taught cut in the future)

well actually roman if you read them more carefully breakingben says this
"-You MAY... MAY use ONE Pokemon that is NOT your type to beat the E4 a second type, under certain conditions
-*You cannot trade in any Pokemon from the outside if you use this rule
-*This Pokemon MUST have a move of your type (T-tar Thunderbolt :))
-*You CANNOT use legendaries, Flying, Dragon, Ice, or Ghost types"

Tyrogue is not apart of the Kanto Dex... you may only use Kanto Pokemon for the first part of the challenge. If you evolve him into Hitmonlee/chan quick enough, I might let you keep him.

Naito April 8th, 2008 5:30 PM

Excuse me, but I won't be able to play until Thursday. So even if I don't update, please don't kick my spot. Because Thursday I probably will play enough to get back to Vermillion. After all, Drowzees are quick to level.

Sandshrew April 8th, 2008 6:12 PM
