Well, got torchic, levelled up and evolved it to combuskin to crush roxanne, then went through the events and took the ship that the sailor takes you on to where I am now(I suck with names but am going to bed so cannot load it to check as I am tired enough I can barely see straight), also got a nincada as my first HM slave to be used for now

Eucliffe December 9th, 2008 7:47 AM

My current progress:

-Caught Surskit in Route 102, named him Silk
-Reached Mauville, got Bike
-Breeded Kip with Silk and got an egg
-Hatched the egg in Slateport
-Trained Zuzu (male Mudkip) 'til he evolved
-Beat Wattson
-Currently growing Chesto Berries to turn into PokeBlocks

My team is the same, with the addition of Silk (who is currently level 14), and Zuzu was only for battling Wattson, so I will not use him pretty much :/ My Pokemon have gained a few levels (Ruri especially, since I gave her the Exp. Share), but...

What I Plan to Do Next:
-Make Blue PokeBlocks out of the Chesto Berries and give them to Kip, then enter a Normal Rank Beauty contest.

The Purple Adventure - Part 1
 
Ok, it's time to begin!
I'll be playing Pokemon Sapphire since Sableye is in the purple group and I totally want a Sableye.
Anyway, I'll be using images to tell the story. This is kinda like those 'Let's Play!' things you may see floating around the net.
I have a question though: does it matter if I use a HM slave that isn't purple? Mudkip can learn loads of HMs and there are no purple water types availiable in R/S/E.

Beginning
Spoiler:

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphirePurple.png
Well, here we go! Let's get this 5 year old train wreck a rollin'! But this time, it's much more purple.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphirenaming.png
My name is inspired by glitch pokemon, oddly enough.
Fun Fact: This name produces the two fossil missingnos and the ghost missingno in Red/Blue, so you can tell how it inspired me.

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphireTruck.png
Ever wonder what's in those boxes? I'm not buying the idea that it's furniture, no way! Those boxes are way too small. However there's not enough in the rooms after they move in that could be in all those boxes, so what could be in 'em?


Anyway, you probably don't want to hear the full story, so I'll go ahead and skip far ahead

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphirePokedexget.png
I just got my PokeDex as you can see, and my next step is to find me a purple companion.
The Bad:
A: There are no Purple Pokemon until Dewford
B: Scratch that, there is, but it's bloody Cascoon, useless to me.

The Good:
I'ma havin' fun already

Hopefully things will pick up soon, I'll make another post once I reach Dewford. Until then I'm only using my starter who I've nicknamed 'Slave'

Dominus_Draconis December 9th, 2008 11:40 AM

Alright, beat the second gym and then caught a goldeen and delivered the letter before heading to slateport, my party is now my goldeen, level 17, my combusken, level 25, and my nincada HM slave whom I plan to use till I can get a good rod and catch two corphish, one to use as a party member and one as a new HM slave so I can have even my HM slaves be red, with the exception of fly, as the only red pokemon I could get with fly would be Latias, and I do not particularly want to spend a move slot on that, plus I want to try to avoid legendaries, plus it comes so late on

Ikwaylx December 9th, 2008 12:25 PM

Part 2

Dewford and catching stuff - click on the spoiler if you want to see stuff

Spoiler:

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphireHellofromDewford.png
Hello from sunny old Dewford! The city has more luxurious activities than you can throw a Makuhita at! Alright, I'll be heading off for Granite Cave to catch me two key pokemon:

Zubat - named Zuarich
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphireZubathooray.png

And Sableye - named Sabin.
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphireSableyeHoorah.png

Info:

Zuarich: Brave Nature
His basic role will be key flyer and annoyer throughout my Purple jorney.
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphireZustats.png

Sabin: Quirky nature
Sabin's role is to be awesome, and that's all there is to it. Go Sabin!
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f64/Ikwaylx/PokemonSapphireSabstats.png

More stuff will come when something cool happens or we face Brawly.



Dominus_Draconis December 9th, 2008 4:00 PM

Got my third badge, then played to the cave, caught a numel and did some grinding till I just evolved it using only it as per the rules, now am going to continue on with my ground type in tow, after I beat the next gym though, I better get to work on my project, is due thursday

PS forgot to mention: also am gonna fire my goldeen, because the water type I was planning on in the end was crawdaunt anyway, was mainly using it so in double battles both were red

Sideburns December 10th, 2008 7:38 AM

Here it is! Update #2!

Dominus_Draconis December 10th, 2008 12:20 PM

got my two corphish, got a solrock for a psychic type, and caught a voltorb too after beating the fourth leader and my dad in relatively short order of one another, then spent hours grinding my one corphish to evolve, so now have my party, will need VBA link though, cause crawdaunt only learns crunch in Fire Red and Leaf Green, which is just cruel

Ikwaylx December 10th, 2008 12:48 PM

Might be making another one soon, I'll probably screenshot a bit of training. Brawly will be incredibly easy though thanks to Sableye.

Just note that you are NOT allowed to evolve Shroomish. And when Slakoth evolves he/she can be the only one you can train until it evolves again into a brown Slaking.
