D/P/Pt Monotype Challenge V2
The old thread was locked, so I asked Color Me Evil for permission to revive it, so here it is (from old thread):
Introduction You know, there is a serious lack of D/P challenges around here. I mean, a few have come up, but a rare few in this forum actually remain active (Kudos to the Scrabble Challenge, as you guys are doing fairly well with activeness), but the 3rd Generation ones are just so popular! Well, I feel a change is needed, does anyone else? Well, I don't care if you do! So, let's start a new challenger here shall we? Rules 1. This is NOT a race. 2. Obvious rule: Use only your type. 3. With Dual Type Pokemon, if it becomes your type, you can use it. For example, you can start of with Chimchar if you want to use a Fighting type team. 4. No hacking/glitching WHATSOEVER! 5. Legends are prohibited. 6. As many people per type as you want 7. You are allowed as many HM slaves as you want. Of course, the lesser the better, as you want all the slots your team can have. You are not allowed to level up your HM slaves. 8. You can catch Pokemon for your Pokedex, but no leveling of them is allowed. 9. Updates are REQUIRED. An update after every 3 gyms is the maximum amount of time you are allowed. 10. You may use your starter Pokemon until you catch the first Pokemon of your type, then you are required to deposit it in the PC or you can use it as an HM Slave. 11. A few types aren't recommended: Ice and Dragon. If you do want to use one of these types, you are required to trade ONE Pokemon of your type over at the earliest point possible (Ghost and Dark aren't on this list as you can catch Misdreavus (Sp?) and Murkrow in Eterna Forest). 12. If you are able to obtain your type early on, no trading is permitted (Except for trade evolutions). 13. You must gain your first type before the Eterna Gym battle. 14. YOU CAN START WITHOUT MY APPROVAL!! The is no limit on types, therefore GO AHEAD. 15. HAVE SOME FUN!!!! Types and Challengers 1. Normal: Urahara Steph 2. Fire: 3. Water: uhhh6677, Cardwell74 4. Grass: Inferno1 5. Electric: TeaTiMe 6. Fighting: 7. Poison: Professuonal Breeder 8. Ground: pikachu_X, tharles 9. Flying: KnilShadowLink 10. Rock: 11. Psychic: 12. Bug: 13. Steel: 14. Ghost: Giratinasaur 15. Dark: 16. Ice: 17. Dragon: I will begin with bug, and update later today. EDIT: Nevermind, I'll do water. Update already posted. |
Gah >_> My Favorite type is Fire, but D/P/Pt is SERIOUSLY lacking in the Fire type availability, I guess I could try doing a Flying type (Gyrados is awesome, it can learn Thunderbolt, Flamethrower, Surf, & Ice Beam >:D hehe) on my Platinum....
|
I can try the challenge since i restarted my platinum so i'm gonna do it Dark Type style but and I'm gonna use piplup as an HM slave
|
Ok, added you two, please post updates! :)
|
I'm gonna do a speed run-through using the Chimchar line only, so I guess it's an only run as well as a Fire monotype challenge. I'll start at some point in the next few days.
|
Ok, I'll add you. And as always, post updates!
|
uhhh6677 can you change my type from dark to ground cuz i just realize in platinum there's only couple of dark types so can you change it into ground i'll post an update later

Electric
I will take the electric challenge!
|
Tempted
I'm tempted to go with the normal type because I think it'll be the hardest, and I do like my challanges, but I just got to trade a few pokemon onto my Platinum before I restart my Diamond. Bare with me on this haha.
Yeah, I'll go with normal. As hard as it may be. |
Update to Electric
Overview
1.Ok so I started and picked up a chimchar (Nickname SLAVE1) 2. After a quick Tutorial on catching pokemon I grab myself a Shinx (lvl 4, "Sarah") 3.I catch a starly as a Second slave and begin heading to the first gym 4.I take out my rival with ease (He had a Starly and Piplup) 5.I then level my way to 17 so as to learn Bite and then allow myself to evolve. 6.Sarah then single handedly took out the first gym using Bite and Return. The party so far: http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpffa/dpffa404.pngSarah, Level 19 Luxio. (Modest, loves to eat) Moves -Spark -Leer (This one saved me against Roark) -Bite -Return http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpffa/dpffa390.pngSLAVE1, level 9 Chimchar (Naive, Often dozes off) Moves -Scratch -Leer -Ember -Rocksmash http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpffa/dpffa396.pngSLAVE2, Level 2 Starly (Bold, Likes to run) Moves -Tackle -Growl -Empty -Empty Strategy For the first gym I knew what had to be done -First the only pokemon I could use was Shinx and the only move Shinx has that isn't not very effective against Roark is Bite. -I tried (And owned) using leer in order to get rid of at least half of the tough rock pokemon's defense. -With a level 19 with a broad range of attacks already things a looking good. -I expect to catch and raise Pachirisu to level 25 along with my Luxio before the next badge. |
If I were to tackle the Ghost monotype challenge on my Diamond, would I be allowed to trade over a Misdreavus egg and four Rare Candies from my Pearl version of the game?
If so, I'd like to take up the Ghost Monotype. If not... I'm taking the Monotype anyway. |
i started a cubone solo run so sign me up for ground
|
@Giratinasaur: Yes, but that's the only pokemon you can trade over.
@Everyone: Add people who weren't already on the list, so good luck to all of you! :D Well, after a while, time for an update. After getting through the routes and Mt. Coronet, I made it to Hearthome. Defeated my Rival with ease, and trekked over to Solocean Town.
