The D/P/Pt Random Egg Challenge!
 
Approved by Glaceon_

Introduction

What's up? .Swift here and I was just noticing the lack of challenges going on here in the D/P/Pt section of PC. Well, I'm here to change all of that with my new challenge called, "The D/P/Pt Random Egg Challenge!" It's got a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

Anyways, this is how "The D/P/Pt Random Egg Challenge!" (I just love saying it like that) works. There will be ten challengers, each of which will present a "random egg" to the challenger after them and, once that egg has hatched, the challengers must compete to see who can train their random Pokemon to Lv.100 the quickest.

Example:
Challenger 1 - Bob
Challenger 2 - Bill

Bob will give Bill an egg that he has prepared, but he must not tell him what Pokemon is inside the egg. Bill must then walk around until the egg hatches and then this is when the challenge really begins. Bill must attempt to train his newly hatched Pokemon to Lv.100 before any of the other challengers.

Rules

Just like any other challenge, this one has rules that all challengers must abide by.
1. This is a race! The first person to get their Pokemon to Lv.100 will win and places will be given to each member who completes the challenge after that.
2. You may use other Pokemon to help you train your random egg Pokemon, but once it reaches Lv.30 you can only train that Pokemon.
3. If the Pokemon must be traded to evolve, you can get your friends (or other challengers) to help you with that.
4. You can only train your Pokemon the way it was meant to be trained, that means NO HACKING ALLOWED. If I find out that you've been hacking, you'll be disqualified on the spot.
5. The following Pokemon are not allowed to be used in this challenge; Wobbuffet, Smeargle, Wynaut, Rotom, Phione and, of course, all legendaries and any other Pokemon that are unable to be hatched from an egg.
6. Updates must be posted every 20 levels gained, as well as when the egg first hatches. The updates must state what you did to train your Pokémon, the current level of your Pokémon and should also include at least one picture to ensure you aren’t cheating.
7. The challenge begins as soon as everyone has received their Pokemon egg and, before then, no-one can attempt to hatch their egg. If you hatch your egg before the challenge begins, you will be disqualified or given a penalty.
8.
Challengers must have defeated the Elite 4 to compete in this challenge, this way it will be fair for everyone.
9.
HAVE FUN!

seems hard and will take a long time and what if you get a magicarp well I do want to see how this goes.

dotKarma March 26th, 2009 4:12 PM

Hmmm, sounds interesting. I'll think about it and get back to you.

I had a similar idea to this one, actually.
But like I said, I will get back to you soon on whether or not I will try this.

EDIT: You could also add the random egg spin thing from Platinum into this somehow

That's why I said you could use other Pokemon to help you train, up until Lv.30.

I hope you decide to join.

Also, the Platinum egg spin thing wouldn't work, because it would mean that only Platinum trainers could compete.

Tinhead Bruce March 26th, 2009 4:30 PM

This looks really intriguing. Mind if I join twice? Meaning, can I do it on my Diamond and my Pearl? Also, since I'm the first challenger, I assume you will be providing the eggs? Let me know when you can trade, as I'd like to start ASAPolis.

No, you cannot join twice.

I'm not giving out the eggs, seeing you're Challenger 1, your egg will be given to you by Challenger 10.

Tinhead Bruce March 26th, 2009 4:52 PM

I mean, after I finish the challenge, can I join with the next one, not both simo. Oookk.... so we can only start when 10 people have signed up.

Sure, you can go ahead and join next time if you want.

Yes, we'll only start when all 10 Challengers have got their eggs, seeing as it is a race and we wouldn't want anyone starting before everyone else.

Tinhead Bruce March 26th, 2009 4:56 PM

Righty-o, forgot about that detail. So I can just breed any egg I want to and give it to them? Can I be evil?

Mages4ever March 26th, 2009 4:56 PM

How are people going to prove that they beat the elite four?

Tinhead Bruce March 26th, 2009 4:56 PM

It's to lvl 100.... also, Champion Ribbon anyone?

Mages4ever March 26th, 2009 4:57 PM

If people were smart, they would EV train them.

Read the rules please.
It says that you must have already defeated the Elite 4 to join this challenge, it has nothing to do with starting a new game. It's all about training a single Pokemon to Lv.100 the quickest.

That's great and I'm sure, if the challengers are smart, they'll do that. But, if all you're going to do is point things out and not join, I'd prefer it if you left this thread.

Tinhead Bruce March 26th, 2009 5:02 PM

^
l I posted a question above. Also, is it unfair to people who have not beat the E4, or unfair to people that have? Like is it easier to train a poke to lvl
l 100 when you have or haven't beaten the E4 yet?

Well, I'm thinking it would be easier to train a Pokemon to Lv.100 after beating the Elite 4, but, then again, I've never trained a Pokemon to Lv.100.

Mages4ever March 26th, 2009 5:07 PM

I'll leave. I just wanted to say that smart people would do that.
Cya.

On a side note, this looks fun, but I want to finish my Platinum first.

Tinhead Bruce March 26th, 2009 5:23 PM

May I do it on a new save file please? Also, no. Fail.

No, I'd like you to do it on a post-Elite 4 file, that's the rule.

Yes, you can be evil, but just remember that the challenger that'll give you your Pokemon can be as well.

Adley March 26th, 2009 5:46 PM

Sign me up. I need to breed some pokes for eggs, but I am so in. Imma practice EVing on it.

^Aww. I didn't wanna know what it was, dude! Can I go like later on the list? I wish to be shocked.

Please read the rules, you're not allowed to tell the person what Pokemon you're giving them. Delete that post, please.

Cool. Thanks for the help. One issue I noticed is how long it takes to hatch some eggs. I mean, for happiny its like 10000 steps while Riolu is only 5000. Thats a huge difference!

Dude, it was a joke. I'm not actually gonna tell them what it is. I was just giving an example of an evil poke to give.

Yeah, but that's part of the game. If you think about it, this challenge takes a lot of strategy when it comes to picking the right Pokemon to give to someone and, also, how to go about training the Pokemon you've recieved.

Tinhead Bruce March 26th, 2009 6:11 PM

Well, can you use any pokes that have Flame Body or Magma Armor to speed the hatching process?

Adley March 26th, 2009 6:18 PM

True. Lol. Now were all gonna pick pokes that take forever to hatch.
