Kurumi May 7th, 2010 9:59 AM

OOOH BOY! Why I decided to get Blizzard on Cereal AFTER Radio Tower?!
Imbaplume would die so easily!
  • Radio Tower beaten because of little leveling and LUCK. Larvitar came in with serious face of... PUPITAR,go go EVOLUTION!
  • Got some fancy feather,Director told me something about nice Kimono Girls and Bell Tower.. Didn't listen to him tho,was too hyped about my Corsola "Cereal" which just rocks.
  • Go go Ice Tunnel! Every trainer towards it is soo easy. Water-types are going down thanks to Cereal!
  • Ice Tunnel,there I come! Grabbed Waterfall... I can't teach it to Corsola?! Oooh boy..
  • Blackthorn City... Wow,the last gym!
  • I AM IN THE HEAT OF TROUBLE...
  • Blizzard chilled me. And some random dragon trainers whose could only cry about their Dragon-type pokemon which are now.. CHILLED TO THE BONE!
  • O hai thar Clair,wanna dance with me? Nah? D:
  • Wasn't too easy but-but... CEREAL SAVES THE DAY WOO~!
  • Cereal is the best. Seriously.
  • Dragon Den,there I come!

I'd actually be more than willing to make a few userbars, provided I have some information like what exactly you want the Userbar to say, and what Pokemon, if any, should I use for each type. I've already created my own personal Normal-type Userbar, so I'm not opposed to doing other types.

EJ May 7th, 2010 2:01 PM

Alright, Arcelio and I will discuss this userbar business via VM/PM.

Do you guys have any suggestions as to what the featured pokemon will be?

A few. For the Electric-type bar, I would use Pikachu (or Pichu), Flaffy, and then Magnezone. For the Normal-type, I would use Ratatta, Furret, then Togekiss. Basically, it would go, First Step, Second Evolution, Third Evolution. Obviously, the Pokemon would vary from bar to bar, and for Fire/Grass/Water, they would feature the Starter Pokemon from HG/SS.

EJ May 7th, 2010 2:08 PM

I like it =]

I'll think of some as well.

Okay. I'll get started tonight, provided I have enough time, and I should be finished by Sunday, Monday at the latest.

Toxic Potato May 7th, 2010 2:25 PM

Still grinding... 4/5 of my guys are at level ~50... I'm getting sick of this grinding business. Well, as I said quite a while ago, I'm only going to update on weekdays, so see everyone on Monday. :P

And, oooh, userbars. I wouldn't mind one. Once I become the Fighting Champion, that is.

Sweed May 7th, 2010 3:11 PM

- The only damn thing I've done is grind that stinkin' Piloswine to level 33 so it would evolve.
- About to take out the Blackthorn City Gym (hopefully)

a) Your font is really hard to read lol
b) Just an idea, for the Ground type userbar, how about Diglett, Quagsire, Golem?


EJ May 7th, 2010 3:11 PM

^Once you evolve it into Mamoswine, say hello to your new powerhouse.

Alright, we'll talk about it tomorrow then. I'm kinda busy tonight.

Yeah, I know my font is hard to read. I use it because I want to squeeze as much text into a small amount of space as possible. As for the Ground-type Userbar, I was actually thinking Swinub, Pupitar, and then Flygon. I think I'll substitute Flygon for Golem though, since it's rather difficult to get a Trapinch in HG/SS (pre-Kanto at least).

EJ May 7th, 2010 3:36 PM

^I liked the idea of first stage, then 2nd evolution, and then final stage.

You should have kept ice shard on it....you'll be OHKO lots of dragons with a mamoswine like that.

And yeah, Mamoswine has the 2nd strongest Earthquake in all the games (non uber).

I plan on keeping Ice Shard lol, it's helping me destroy Claire.

Oh wow, I'll defiantly evolve it then!

UPDATE:
-Currently battling Claire, thought I'd elaborate on the battle.

Round One: Nidoking vs. Gyarados
- Gyara Intimidates, that's ok wasn't planning on using Nido for much anyway
- Lay down two layers of Toxic Spikes (I LOVE THAT MOVE) while Gyara attacks with Dragon Rage, I attack with Horn Attack which does almost nothing before Nido faints

Round Two: Golem vs. Gyara
- Send out Golem, Rock Throw once, get down to red health, Claire Hyper Potions
- Gyara Dragon Rage's again, I Rock Throw twice, knocking out Gyara
- Claire sends out Kingdra, I switch in for Quagsire

Round Three: Quagsire vs. Kingdra
- Kingdra is poisoned, I start Amnesia'ing
- He starts Dragon Pulsing me, it does nothing
- I start hitting it with Surf, I get a Crit and he dies of Poison
- Claire sends in Dragonair #1, I send in Piloswine

Round Four: Piloswine vs. Dragonair #1
- Dragonair gets Poisoned
- I Ice Shard (which always goes first) and get down to right above yellow health
- Dragonair Dragon Pulses, gets me down to half
- Dragonair takes poison
- I Ice Shard again, Dragonair #1 faints
- Claire sends in Dragonair #2, I keep out Piloswine

Round Five: Piloswine vs. Dragonair #2
- Dragonair #2 is poisoned
- I Ice Shard, get down to yellow health (about half)
- She Dragon Pulses, I faint, send in Quagsire
- She takes poison

Round Six: Quagsire vs. Dragonair #2
- She Dragon Pulses, doesn't do anything
- I EQ, Dragonair #2 faints

I HAVE ALL EIGHT BADGES NOWWWW!

Onto the Johto Leau- wait! That idiot didn't give me a badge. Oh jeez, to the Dragon Den........

Team is all the same, just a couple level ups.


TotoPacMan May 7th, 2010 4:35 PM

jeez i need to update more. also, i like the userbar idea.

Went through union cave. needless to say, it sucked. I ran into like 5 onixs in 2 minutes. that's probably a record. I wish people would stop calling me. Hooray for Azalea Town! Who's that old Dude? oh well. wait, he's Kurt? damn that means....
In the slowpoke well. Batty learned Bite! destryed some people, then this leader guy. blah blah blah blah blah..... next time i'll do the gym.

Arcelio May 7th, 2010 5:44 PM

Just figured I'd post a sample of the Userbars. This one is for the Normal-type Challenge.

http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=5690&pictureid=42254
Tell me what you guys think. I personally think the text looks a bit too pushed together.

TotoPacMan May 7th, 2010 6:37 PM

maybe a bit squished, but otherwise really cool.
thought i'd do one more update before bed. and I have a question, should i get a dratini here at Goldenrod or wait for the extremespeed dratini later?

alright, so i beat bugsy after i got Batty to Lv.17 (i love early wing attack). the metapod and kakuna were pitiful. Why make Bugs so bad? WHYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?! (i still love my bugs) also, while fighting trainers after Ilex forest, Da king the Pidgey evolved into Pidgeotto. All hail the Da King!!!! Long live the king!!! i know, bad jokes, but i've been wanting to do that since i named him. also, renamed Flyboy. i didn't really like Da King as a name. Renamed my Hoothoot Hooters after i lost a bet (screw my friends). Batty's wing attack pretty much kills anything it comes in contact with.

Team (too lazy to find pics):

Batty/Zubat Lv.18
Wing Attack
Astonish
Supersonic
Bite

Flyboy/Pidgeotto Lv.18
Whirlwind
Sand-Attack
Gust
Quick Attack

Hooters/Hoothoot Lv.19
Uproar
Peck
Reflect
Hypnosis

EJ May 7th, 2010 7:31 PM

The text seems cramped but it's damn sexy otherwise =]

Shiari Xero May 7th, 2010 7:38 PM

Alright i want to take this challenge.
Username: Shiari Xero
Type: Fighting
Version: Soul Silver
Team: Still thinking of it, though it will have Lucario and Heracross
First off though, is it ok, since fighting types are so scarce at the beginning, if i import two eggs? (which would be Riolu and Shroomish) If not then i will only import Riolu.

Arcelio May 7th, 2010 7:43 PM

http://www.pokecommunity.com/picture.php?albumid=5690&pictureid=42257
What about this version?

I think .EJ will allow two eggs, since you don't get a Fighting-type Pokemon for a while. He's the final say on this though, but I think that it'll be okay.

EJ May 7th, 2010 9:54 PM

Arcelio's correct. I'll allow two eggs for your "starters"

I'll go ahead and add you.

Come to think of it, I should have considered doing that early on....poor toxic potato was stuck with poliwag for a while lol.
