I might try a pure normal type playthrough, no secondary types like Taillow. So sign me up I guess. By the way, this will be done on Ruby.

johnathondrag September 20th, 2009 8:03 PM

Goodluck Hallway you'll need it!

Thanks, but I think I can do it. I beat it with my steel Pokemon, and they were 10 levels under-leveled. Normal Types only have one weakness anyway, and I'll be able to hit ghosts by the time I face them with a move like shock wave.

DeeJayFusion September 21st, 2009 7:31 AM

I'll do a Grass Monotype on Sapphire :D

Radon September 21st, 2009 11:36 AM

Not sure if I this would be the place to ask but,

With these monotype challenges, does the pokemon have to be just one type like for example just fire, water, grass, etc.? or can it be two as long as one of its types is the one you're using? for example Camerupt(ground/fire) or Skarmory(Steel/flying).

I'm pretty sure you can use a Pokemon with multiple types. When I did my steel run I used Aggron (Rock/Steel), Skarmory (Steel/flying), and Magneton (Steel/Electric) as well as Mawile.

Circuit September 21st, 2009 1:14 PM

No one is doing grass, so I'll do that, if I can do two, one on Sapphire and one on Ruby, I'll do steel on the other.

If you are doing steel, let me warn you that Numels are very annoying. And if you do, if your doing that one on Ruby, Groudon is impossible. I had to catch it with a master ball when I did this, just to get past him.

Thanks for clearing that up :)

johnathondrag September 21st, 2009 3:56 PM

Yeah they can be more than one, Im using Marshstomp (Water/Ground), Tentacruel (Water, Poison), Pelipper (Water,Flying), Lombre (Water,Grass)

DeeJayFusion-Your now on the Grass challengers list
Flash!-You are now on both, the grass and the steel list.

Kleinchen September 21st, 2009 7:04 PM

A brief update c: I didn't have much time today so all I did was a bit of training, my team is now as follows:

Taillow lvl. 16 -- Vogel
Nincada lvl. 10 -- Schnell (will be evolving into a Ninjask to use)
Zubat lvl. 11 -- Nacht
Magikarp lvl. 10 -- Drako (again, will be evolving into a Gyarados)

I want to get Nacht up to about level 13 before I take on Brawley, even though I won't have any trouble, I do want a backup in case Vogel somehow gets taken out. x3

HallwayKid September 22nd, 2009 3:39 AM

Well I'm stuck at the first gym and might need to do more training.

Pokemon:
Zigzagoon - Lv17
Whismur - Lv16

I might try to evolve them so I can beat those pesky rock Pokemon.


Edit: Beat it with a Lv 20 Linoone. I'm hoping that the fighting gym won't be as bad.

Your hoping that the gym with the type that is SUPER effective against your type wont be as bad???

The reason it was bad in the rock gym was because I couldn't do any damage. In the fighting gym that is not the case. I'm not saying that this gym will be easy, but it won't be hard for me to beat with Lv20+ Loudred and Linoone.

Update: Beat the Fighting gym on my first try, in 5 turns. Too easy.

johnathondrag September 22nd, 2009 6:19 PM

Shedinja and Sableye. I believe those are the only ones you can get by that point.

Shiny September 24th, 2009 7:34 PM

If it's not too late to join, I'll do a Bug-type run on my Emerald version.
