3rd Generation Solo Run!
 
3rd Generation Solo Run
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The goal of a solo run is to complete the entire game with just one Pokemon. You may pick any Pokemon to complete
this run with. You may use an emulator and hack it to obtain a certain Pokemon if you cannot obtain it until late
in the game (e.g. Dratini in FRLG, Spheal in RSE). Legends may not be used, however, as they are no fun.

HM Slaves are allowed of course. Just don't use them in battle.

Update:

Caught a bunch of Wurmples until I got one with a good nature (Timid), named it Ultima.

OK! Time for another exciting update of han and solo! ;)

So I made it to dewford town and ran through the tunnel without flash because it's cooler than using flash.

Brawly kicked my butt twice I had to get Solo up to level 21 and had an amazing string of luck with every headbutt I used making his pokemon flinch otherwise I would have been done for.

ran through slateport and dispatched the grunts easily. I've already lost to my rival's combusken twice. I'll beat her the next time I play.


Screen shots attached for proof.

Cid May 12th, 2010 1:11 AM

Here's an update towards the first Gym Badge. (b'')b

- Used A-Starter on the Emerald.

Decided to replace Torchic for Elekid, mainly due to Mudkip's evolutions being part-Ground type.

- After the opening, named my character "Surge."

If it wasn't obvious yet, the name came from Vermilion City Gym Leader Lt. Surge.

- I picked out the Elekid. I decided to name him after my username, that is, Cid.

For some odd reason, my first try of getting his nature right was one of the natures I wanted him to have (Rash, increasing Sp. Attack and decreasing Sp. Defense, useful, and not disadvantageous at all, for Ground-type moves, which are Elekid's weaknesses, use the Defense stat instead, up until Generation III).

- Helped Wally catch his Ralts.

- I defeated a Team Aqua Grunt at Petalburg Woods, then I got to Rustboro City.

- Grinded a LOT at Route 116.

I definitely needed at least level 20 to beat the two Geodudes, for they seem to make critical hits often during my rematches with Roxanne, and Cid lacks a good movepool (no available TMs at this point) to fend off those pesky Rock/Ground-types without using a ton of items (I realized that this isn't Final Fantasy, so I don't get unlimited supply of money or items from the random encounters). I never used the save state feature within the emulator, because it seemed like cheating to do so.

- Beat Gym Leader Roxanne.

Finally. And her Nosepass was underwhelmingly easy to beat, (ThunderPunch FTW!) due to its lack of Electric-type resistance.

http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/9651/roxannebattlestart.png
Really now? I'm not the same kid you beat like before. >:]

http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/5683/roxannebattlevictory.png
Cid celebrates with his hands in the air.
\o/

- Now off to get an HM Slave.

Maybe a Nincada would do? After that, then I'd go on to the annoying commotion caused by the Team Aqua Grunt.

Progress:
Location: Route 116
Badges: 1

Cid (Elekid)
Level 21
Moves:
- Quick Attack
- Leer
- ThunderPunch
- Light Screen

Charizoise May 12th, 2010 5:56 AM

Next Update:
Got the Devon goods back from the evil aqua grunt.
Went to president, obtained a pokénav and got a letter to deliver.
Took the boat from petalburg city to Dewford town.
Challenged the gym leader and... I GOT BEATEN 7 TIMES DUE THAT MAKUHITA!!!! Then defeated him due a critical hit (Lucky Shot).

Pokemon:
JIMMY B/Lombre lvl 24 (modest nature)
- Astonish
- Absorb
- Fake Out
- Nature Power

Next update at next gym.

Another installment in Han and Solo's pokemon adventures!

-->After grinding Solo up to Lv. 35 I came back and wiped the floor with watson.
--> Solo OHKO's just about everything in sight right about now and I have a feeling the next couple gym's won't give me to much trouble.
--> one of my ziggzagoon's found a rare candy and raised Solo yet another level

Here's the screen shot to prove I beat watson! and of Solo evolving which I meant to put into my last update!

Cid May 12th, 2010 9:37 AM

Another update. This one is a bit too long. Guess I got a bit carried away, especially the May battle part, since that was the battle where Elekid evolved. So in that case, I just put it and Elekid's evolution in spoiler tags.

- After catching a Nincada (named him Cutter), I beat the grunt and met Mr. Briney.

Here on out starts my odd naming trend for the HM Slaves.

- Got the PokeNav.

- Beat May.

- With the old man and his ship, I set sail towards Dewford.

- Came to Route 106 and entered the Granite Cave.

Received Flash, though I don't think it's that useful, I'm still probably catching a Pokemon for Flash.

- Caught an Abra, and named him Flasher.

I decided to name my HM Slaves like this so they would at least feel special. The names are funny, too. In fact, why not just call them in a more suitable term? I'd call them my HM Buddies from now on.

http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/7403/hmbuddyflasher.png
Meet my new HM Buddy, Flasher, with HM Buddy Cutter beside him.

- Met Steven and gave the letter to him.

- Trained a little in Route 109.

- Defeated Gym Leader Brawly.

http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/3847/brawlybattlestart.png
You know that this marks my second Gym Battle, right? So this must be twice as hard, or at least a little harder.

http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/5962/brawlybattlevictory.png
He was a lot easier than I anticipated. O_o

- Delivered goods to Capt. Stern, and defeated the Aqua Grunts.

- Went inside the Trick House.

I brought Cutter with me to get through its tricks, er...trees. And what do you know, when I got through, the guy did give me some candy (Rare Candy, that is). What is it today, Halloween?

- Encountered May in Route 110, and engaged in the third battle with her Pokemon so far.

Surge's Third Battle Encounter with May (leading to Cid's evolution)

Spoiler:

http://img532.imageshack.us/img532/4385/maythirdbattlestart.png
She's got three Pokemon now? So she must be imitating the Gym Leaders.

http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/1369/maythirdbattlelombre.png
I just realized, Cid is near evolution (evolves into Electabuzz at level 30). Now then, show them what you're made of, Cid!

http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/5369/gainingexperiencebefore.png
That Lombre was easy! Here it comes...

http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/3245/level30.png
There we go, level 30. I bet he's already feeling it.

http://img686.imageshack.us/img686/8332/maythirdbattlemarshtomp.png
Sending Marshtomp out already, May? Wow, just realized that he's already evolved. Good thing I have Swift.

http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/9103/maythirdbattlemudshot.png
Just be careful of that Mud Shot, Cid.

http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/88/mudshotepilogue.png
Yeow. That's one huge HP dent right there. At least my Swift is decently keeping up. Now, if he goes first, I lose...

http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/4093/marshtompbattlevictory.png
Yes! There we go. Keep going with your awesome speed, Cid!

http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/5465/herlastpokemon.png
Here comes her last Pokemon...wait, what? Whatever happened to her Torkoal from last time? Guess she abandoned it after Cid beat it up that time.

http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/2508/foeslugmafainted.png
Knocked it out with a ThunderPunch.

http://img17.imageshack.us/img17/9360/maythirdbattlevictory.png
Yes! I win money!

- Elekid evolved into an Electabuzz at level 30.

Cid the Elekid's Evolution

Spoiler:

http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/1143/cidevolutionpart1.png
Cid is holding his head in overwhelming power.

http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/6193/cidevolutionpart2.png
With his final cry as an Elekid, he glows.

http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/2062/cidevolutionpart3.png
This is IT! All our efforts and experiences together are finally paying off!

http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/3140/cidevolutionpart4.png
This is definitely worth that icky Mud Shot from earlier. Kickass.

- May gives me the Itemfinder, and rides her bicycle as she went away.

http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/3718/morerewards.png
What? More rewards? And I thought the money and evolution were rewarding enough. This must be my lucky day.

Okay so yet another update for you guys!

So when you left me and Solo he was a poor little level thirty six Larion.

I now give you my level 50 Aggron! (Check the screenshot to see him!)

Me and Solo have now collected six of the eight badges and delt with the team rocket wannabes on mount pyre. I expect to get through there hideout at some point tomorrow and then on to beat the last two gyms hopefully!

Check my screenies for proof of me progress!

Cid May 13th, 2010 3:45 AM

Surge and Cid are already more than halfway from getting all the badges in Hoenn, and Cid's level is similarly halfway its highest. Here's another update.

- Got to Mauville City.

I received Rock Smash, and caught a Poochyena for it and named him Smasher. I also received a Mach Bike from Rydel, which gave me a way through the Cycling Road. North of the city, I won against the Winstrate Family. They gave me the Macho Brace as a reward, but I'm more curious as to who the strongest of their family is.

- Battled Wally and his weak Ralts.

It just took a single ThunderPunch to knock it out. I pity him for losing, though at least he tried.

- Took on the Gym, and won against Gym Leader Wattson.

He was a pretty decent opponent. The only Pokemon he had that annoyed me was Magneton, mainly due to its resistances, coupled with Paralysis and Confusion; The thing needed three periodical Screeches to defeat without Wattson healing it.

http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/7348/wattsonbattlestart.png
What's so funny? I've got a strong Electric-type too, mind you.

http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/4663/wattsonbattlevictory.png
Curse your little pampered Magneton... You certainly had fun stalling my victory with your healing items. At least you admitted defeat.

- Smashed the rock at Rusturf Tunnel, which prompted the guy to give me Strength.

Uh-oh, naming the Pokemon I've yet to catch as Strengther would be odd to listen to...but to follow the trend, I guess I would.

- Smashed through the rocks north of Mauville with Smasher.

I then went through the Fiery Path and caught a Machop along the way. I initially wanted him to be called Strengther, but I thought that I should only have five HM Buddies so I can put them all in one team. I decided to name him StrSmasher, so that I can put two HMs into him. I released Smasher and kept StrSmasher, with plans to name my fourth HM Buddy as Flyer, and my fifth HM Buddy as DW-Surfer, meaning DivingWaterfall-Surfer.

- Got to Fallarbor Town.

- Met Team Magma and Team Aqua at Meteor Falls.

- Took the Cable Car up to Mt. Chimney, and defeated Team Magma Leader Maxie.

- Down the Jagged Pass, I came to Lavaridge Town.

- Beat Gym Leader Flannery, and recieved my Fourth Badge.

She was very easy compared to the first and third Gym Battles.

http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/2046/fourbadgestrainercard.png
I forgot to use the "Screen Capture" feature of the emulator during the fight with Flannery, though, so I just took a
picture of my Trainer Card.

http://img413.imageshack.us/img413/6942/proof1b.png
Here's a picture of May giving me the Go-Goggles and telling me to challenge my dad.

http://img541.imageshack.us/img541/7448/proof2n.png
And this is taken right after, to prove that I didn't use any
other Pokemon besides Cid.

- Came back to Petalburg City.

- Defeated Gym Leader Norman, a.k.a. Dad.

He was almost as easy as Flannery.

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/7184/normanbattlestart.png
I'm here for my Gym Badge, Dad!

http://img163.imageshack.us/img163/551/normanbattlevictory.png
Now you know how strong your son is.

- A man related to Wally gave me Surf.

Right after that, I caught a Marill in Route 104 west of Petalburg City (the nearest place I could catch a Pokemon that can learn the HMs Dive, Waterfall and Surf) and named him DW-Surfer. Only one more HM Buddy to go!

Progress:

violentiris777 May 13th, 2010 2:30 PM

I'm changed my Pokemon to Growlithe, since the Ghost type can't affect Normal and Normal can't affect Ghost, effectively making it impossible for me to level up Gastly much at all. Check out my MASSIVE story below. I'm actually farther than this, but I'm going to post in smaller segments so that it's easier to read. Prepare for 150+ frames of extremely intense action, fellas.

No, I want you to heal them.

http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/ii206/bandfreak93/Growlithe%20Adventure/PokemonEmeraldGBA_137.png

I should probably train up before taking on a Lvl. 15 Nosepass that's Type Effective.

StrickeN May 13th, 2010 9:03 PM

Ok just got started on my Solo Run so here is what I got!


Alright, I started off naming my guy Blaine, for obvious purposes.


We take a short, ride in the back of a moving van, because mom was too cheap to get me a cab and eventually we pop out infront of the house! Where apparantly mom has already been putting stuff up.

She tels me to go set my clock, even though when I started my game it said internal battery too low. Oh well. I set it to a random time and then at said random time, I go downstairs to find my dad on T.v. oh wait, he's gone. Dratz.

I head over to the neighbors house and enter with out knocking and my neighbors mom instantly lets me go upstairs to her private quarters! thanks neighbor.

So I go try to steal her pokemon then she gets really busy.


I go help a guy who is being attacked by a squirrel, poor guy, and he gives me a free pokemon. THANKS!

I name my Magby of whom I chose, Inferno because he's hawt. And we use his fire powahs to kill this stupid pesky squirrel. Level 2? no problem!

The guy decides I should keep said pokemon and then tells me to go find his daughter. I run up and train magby a little, he doesn' tlevel but I try May anyway. She beats me sadly on the first try so I leveled up once again and beat her thanks to a burn. Thanks luck.



And that's what I got!

I'll upload soe pictures in a bit.

Next update after defeating Gym leader #4

Cid May 14th, 2010 8:51 AM

An update lacking much progress (except for Cid's level) due to repetitively challenging trainers who wanted a rematch.

- Went to Mr. Briney's house and checked on him, seeing that his ship isn't around.

What happened to him? Who kidnapped the old man? Now I have to use Surf to get around the watery region. D: But before that, I should go check on the Trick House.

- Surfed through the river at Route 103 to get to the Trick House.

I'm no longer feeling bad about not having Mr. Briney and his ship, because I definitely LOVE surfing. Cid just zaps every evil Pokemon who wants to white us out that we randomly encounter, which teaches them to be good little Water-types.

- Went through the second Trick House challenge.

This time, the place was full of switches that closed holes. Not much was needed, really...and bringing my HM Buddies was a waste of time for them. They should've safely frolicked back at their Box 1 home. Not much of a reward, too, since I didn't need any Pokeballs of any kind.

- Reentered the house for the third Trick House challenge.

It now had smashable rocks, which put StrSmasher a job to do, and some switches that open and close doors. I didn't get any reward, for my bag was full (of useless mail)! After selling the mail, I got a Hard Stone (which I immediately deemed as useless and simply sold it).

- A lot of new areas explorable with Surf, so I went through many bodies of water.

Some of my ventures consist of exploring New Mauville (that earned me Thunderbolt, which Cid already knew) and the Abandoned Ship.

- A number of registered people wanted to have rematches, so I happily beat them.

That mentioned, during this time, Cid gained a lot of levels, explaining his high level later on.

- Gave back the Meteorite that I took from Team Magma, which then prompted Prof. Cozmo to give me Return.

I taught Return to Cid in place of Swift, mainly due to its base power being higher.

- Bought the very expensive Psychic from the Mauville Game Corner and taught it to Cid.

- Surfed west of the river at Route 118.

From then on, I went to the Weather Institute, kicked some Team Aqua butt (and received a Castform, which I subsequently released, after taking away the Mystic Water it held for selling), and continued on under the harsh rain.

- Encountered May at Route 119, where she challenges me to my fourth battle encounter against her.

http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/9440/mayfourthbattlestart.png
Really, now? Let me warn you, Cid is definitely stronger than our last encounter.

She still has her Lombre, Marshtomp and Slugma, the three came out in the same order as last time.

http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/5700/mayfourthbattlevictory.png
I guess that's what happens when you take rematches too often.

She was extremely easy (now that Cid is a powerful Electabuzz) that only Fake Out managed to damage Cid. Poor May, she has no idea that solo runs can create beasts...although I could be the reason for making Cid strong, due to the countless rematches I've had, combined with battling every available trainer at the moment. Also, what do you know, she gave me Fly, so now's the perfect time to search for Flyer, my last HM Buddy (or at least I'll just catch any Pokemon I might encounter that can learn Fly, until I get the Gym Badge, which then, if I haven't caught one yet, I would search for one).

- Got to Fortree City.

Apparently, the Gym here is blocked by something unseeable. So I just went on to Route 120. There I met Steven, who made me battle a Kecleon, then gave me a Devon Scope. He's then swept away by a Flying thing...weird.

- I reached Route 121 after that.

I continued on, even before fighting the Fortree Gym Leader, due to my unresisted urge to fight any available trainer. That is until I caught a Wingull while Surfing towards Mt. Pyre, whom I named Flyer, as my last HM Buddy. That's when I came back to Fortree to get my badge and be able to fly.

http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/2633/hmbuddyflyer.png
HM Buddy Flyer, completing my HM Buddies.

- Beat Gym Leader Winona.

http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/4189/winonabattlestart.png
Open your eyes, Winona. Cid's got a type advantage.

http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/3328/winonabattlevictory.png
Thanks, though you should still try battling with your eyes open.

She's got five Pokemon now, compared to other Gym Leaders. Too bad none of them (except Pelipper with its Protect) survived more than one turn with Cid's Thunderbolt.

- Flew to Lilycove City with Flyer.

I just noticed, Flyer turns really big in the overworld. So that move was what Steven used, huh. Oh, wondering how I flew to Lilycove? That's because I just went there awhile ago.

- I went to the Lilycove Department Store entrance, and there, I found May blocking the way.

Move out of the way. I'm trying to shop here.

http://img192.imageshack.us/img192/2742/mayfifthbattlevictory.png
Yeah, I guess. Hey wait, don't cry, Cid did a lot of rematches.

I beat her easily, and after that, she goes home, seemingly stopping her career as a Pokemon Trainer and only thinking of completing the Pokedex.
I guess she isn't my main rival, after all.

Count me in!

(Is it okay to use A-Starter/gameshark to change my starter pokemon or catch it in the wild, as my pokemon can't be obtained till further on in the game)

Itz Spadezz May 14th, 2010 10:23 AM

It is ok suicune says so in the rules.

Xephyr May 14th, 2010 12:40 PM

Nice Agumon. And yes you can use HM Slaves as revive fodder. They have to be HM slaves though. You can't just go out and catch random stuff to fill your team slots up so you have your solo runner and five revive fodder-ers.

And yes you may use A-starter to get your Pokemon early. That is actually the recommended method of doing this.

Also, you guys are giving me way too much stuff to update on the first post!! Haha, I'm kidding, it makes me glad that all of you are making so much progress. Keep it up everyone

Cid May 14th, 2010 9:40 PM

I don't like the idea of using the HM Slaves as Revive fodder, but if that's allowed, then I can't do anything, I guess.
I'd just go on with my solo run without using reviving items at all. It seems more like a solo run to do so, really, since if you rely on other Pokemon to get a 1-Up, then that wouldn't be a solo run now, would it? Precisely the reason as to why I sold every single reviving item that I get, and yes, even those rare Max Revives.

No update yet, guys.
Still, keep up the good work and thanks for the awesome idea, Xephyr. Good luck with your own solo runs. ;D

Okay, thanks for that, I was planning on changing the starter.

Started
  • Opened up A-Starter and set my Solo Runner as a starter
  • Opened up Pokemon Emerald with the VBA emulator
  • Set the setting (Text speed fast ect.)
  • Named my character, completed the introduction.
  • Did the basics, Set the clock, visited May, helped Rowan, obtained my Pokemon... Lunatone! Received Pokeballs & Running Shoes and now I'm ready to begin my adventure

Thanks Dude
Yeah you dont even know the time i trained salamance to lv 81 (and salamance is a really hard pokemon to raise) but super speed helped alot

Cid May 15th, 2010 9:04 PM

Another update. Same as last time, Surge and Cid got another badge, and only one short from completing all eight Hoenn badges.

- Surfed all the way to Mt. Pyre.

There I kicked some more Team Aqua butt, then left with a Magma Emblem in hand.

- Flew to Lavaridge Town.

I remembered seeing a Team Magma Grunt at Jagged Pass, so I went there to give the Emblem back. And what do you know, the boulder where I saw the Team Magma Grunt standing near to responded with the Emblem, which took me to their hideout.

http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/2523/teammagmahideoutentranc.png
Who would have known there was a huge cavern used by crooks beneath the Jagged Pass?

- Entered the Team Magma Hideout.

There I battled Team Magma Leader Maxie. By the way, the knocked out Pokemon besides Cid is StrSmasher, because Strength was needed to get through the hideout, though I made it a point to knock him out before having any battles inside to still have a solo run. I beat him easily...then he just disappears.

http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/1997/maxiebattlestart.png
At least you're not avoiding me, unlike some other team leader.

http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/9216/maxiebattlevictory.png
I wonder if the other team leader is as much of a pushover as you.

- Flew to Slateport City to see Team Aqua get away with Capt. Stern's submarine.

- Flew to Lilycove City.

After entering the cavern east of the city, I came across the hideout of Team Aqua. There, I kicked a little Team Aqua butt (yet again), then their boss got away (yet again).

- Surfed east of Lilycove City, I got to Mossdeep City.

- Came to the Mossdeep Gym, and defeated Mossdeep Gym Leaders Tate and Liza.

There I found out that I had to have at least two Pokemon to battle the Gym Leaders, which is why I brought Flasher (my least used HM Buddy) with me, whom I plan to knock away from the battle to achieve the solo run.

http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/3676/tateandlizabattlestart.png
Two Gym Leaders? Now that's just...awful, for a guy using one Pokemon for battling all throughout his journey.

http://img704.imageshack.us/img704/5945/flasherfainted.png
I'm really sorry, Flasher, but Cid has to do this alone.

With that turn wasted, I got hit by Psychic and Earthquake, both significantly denting Cid's HP to almost half. I used Thunderbolt on the Xatu first to kill it off, who was then replaced by a Lunatone. Claydol continued to lash another Earthquake that turn, which was definitely painful, and put Cid's HP to orange.

http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/590/orangehp.png
Yeow, that tremor was painful.

I used Thunderbolt on the Lunatone, so the fight would at least be fair...then they suddenly send out Solrock to replace Lunatone...argh. Then I get hit by another Earthquake, which put Cid's HP to red.

http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/5338/earthquake.png
What? First you do a cheap trick of sending Solrock out, then you continue to cause tremors as the trick is done? And your partners really had to be IMMUNE to Earthquakes, just so Cid could feel the pain. Argh.

http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/6815/redhp.png
No! Hang in there, Cid! A Hyper Potion's on the way!

I desperately grabbed a Hyper Potion for Cid, who subsequently got hit by yet another Earthquake (is this a Ground-type Gym or what?). To make matters worse, Solrock toasted Cid with a Flamethrower. Cid just Thunderbolted Solrock to death, so that it would finally be fair, and another Earthquake hit Cid to put his HP to orange level...again.

http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/391/solrockfainted.png
Hah! Served you right for trying to toast Cid...

http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/7721/orangehpagain.png
...what? Come ON, this isn't a Ground-type Gym.

I thought my level was high enough for this, but teaming up on a single Pokemon is just CRAZY. I commanded Cid to use Return on the Claydol, who finally got knocked out (I should have knocked him out first, but when I tried on my first fight against the duo, he retained a little HP).

http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/1235/cidreturnclaydol.png
Take that! Cid's returning all those nasty Earthquakes you did for every turn of the fight.

http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/6725/claydolfainted.png
Finally. No more Earthquakes.

http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/237/tateandlizabattlevictor.png
Your tactics are REAL cheap, you know. Still, Cid prevails.

Only one more Gym Badge to go before the Pokemon League!

- Went to the Mossdeep Space Center.

On the way, I encountered Team Magma with their leader, marching towards the building. Seems that they've come for rocket fuel, but for what? Did Groudon suddenly blast off to space from our last encounter?

- Defeated Team Magma Admin Tabitha and Leader Maxie while teaming up with Steven Stone.

http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/5638/teambattlestart.png
So you plan to use the fuel to make the volcano erupt? Not when we're here to defeat you.

http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/5796/teambattlevictory.png
That was an epic fight. And it was fun, too.

- Went inside Steven's house, who gave me Dive.

http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/5901/sgift.png
Awesome! Thanks a lot, Steven. Now I'm teaching this to DW-Surfer.

- Flew back to Slateport, and took on the fourth, fifth and sixth Trick House challenges.

I sold the rewards from the first two, and equipped the Magnet on Cid, which I received from the most recent challenge.

http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/4640/magnet.png
Cid's Thunderbolts are much stronger now, since he's holding a Magnet in his hands.

Now then, off to diving near Mossdeep City!

Yeah, Fossil Pokemon do Level up Slow at the beginning of their training but once they're higher leveled (40/50+) they level up MUCH faster because they have a Base Exp of 600,000 (The fastest in the game)

Also, I have a question here.
Can we catch any Pokes to be used later after we finished this challenge?

Xephyr May 18th, 2010 2:57 AM

Quick warning to everyone, because I discovered this earlier: if you're doing a run through FRLG and you're using a pokemon that's not in the kanto pokedex, it won't evolve. So you'll have to find a way around that.

Fire Wolf May 18th, 2010 3:44 AM

First update:
Named self Qwil (Qwilfish doesn't fit in), did stuff, chose Qwilfish as starter (using A-Starter), defeated Poochyena, named Qwilfish Spikester, did stuff, got to Rustboro, went to the gym, gosh, that gym was hard without Water Gun. I used a strategy comprising all my moves. Here it is: Firstly use Minimize 6 times so I don't get hurt much, set up 3 layers of Spikes so the next pokemon gets hurt, Poison Sting until it gets Poisoned (or gets Poisoned by Poison Point) and Tackle it until it faints. That strategy helped me defeat the gym. I defeated the Aqua grunt in Rusturf Tunnel and now am standing outside of Rusturf Tunnel.

Fire Wolf May 18th, 2010 9:31 PM

I progressed more in my Qwilfish run and I have defeated Brawly. Easy with Water Gun. I proceded to Slateport where I defeated many Tubers and Sailors before defeating 2 Aqua Grunts. I defeated May and went to Mauville. Defeated all the trainers in the gym. Wattson is kicking my ass with Shock Wave atm. I'll defeat all the trainers west and east of Mauville before going to Cycling Road, I guess.

Team:

Here's my update.

I started my game with a Squirtle who I named John. I battle my rival after I got squirtle, who got a bulbasaur. We fought and I defeated him. I went to Viridian City training my pokemon. Just to find out I had to go back after I got a parcel for Oak. I went back and he gave me a PokeDex! I trudged to Viridian City and then cut through Viridian Forest. My Pokemon gaining around 7 levels. Then I battle Brock and 1 hit KOed all of his Pokemon with Water squirt. John then evolved into Wartortle.

I trudged to Mount Moon then stopped Team Rocket and obtained a Felix stone from a nerd. Then I went to Cerulean, healed my Pokemon and saved.

* Gym Update!

Reached Lavaridge town and took on ALL the trainers in the gym leaving me with low HP however, still attempted Flannery but lost because I had VERY low hp and Torkoal used overheat & wing attack missed >.>. 2nd try, won easily, with hardly NO health lost!


Obtained the Heat Badge & TM 50 (Overheat)

(SWELLOW IS ALMOST LEVEL 70 AND I ONLY HAVE 4 BADGES!)

*Gym Update!

So, I reached Petalburg city and enterd the gym, took on all of the trainers (I think) it was hard to figure out considering there was lots of doors, finally reached Dad with Low HP. Defeated his first 2 Pokemon easily, Slaking was more of a challenge as it kept using yawn and facade which wasn't good at all, but I won by a little bit with only a small amount of HP left, Obtained the Balance Badge & TM 42 (Facade)

Defeated Norman (Dad) - Swellow Lv 66!

*Gym Update!

Reached Fortree City, had to go meet Steven on the bridge to obtain the Scope lense (I think it's called) and clear the invisible Kecleon blocking the path to the gym. Enterd the gym and took on all the trainers, beat them easily, reached Wiona, Easily took out Pelliper & Tropius, then she sent out Skamory which was difficult (Defeated me twice) with it's resistance to flying type moves >.>, 3rd time lucky I got a critical hit and defeated it, Altaria last, used Dragon dance 4 times, I used aerial ace 4 times and won :P,

Defeated Wiona :) (Toughest leader so far by a mile)

I went over and got through Rock Tunnel. Uh EASILY. John pwned everyone as most of them were Rock and Normal types. So I got out of Lavender town the went to Cealdon City and beat the gym. I found a Rocket Grunt standing by a poster saying he was guarding it. But Hey! I wanted to see about Cycling Road! Then he sent out a Pokemon and challenged me. Very foolish. I pwned him.

So I beat all the grunts without leaving to heal and still having near perfect HP. Then I got a lift Key from a grunt who dropped it and I went to the lift and went to Base B4. Then there was Giovanni. Easy Smeezy. 1 hit KO for his first two Pokemon. Then an 2 hit for his kangaskan.When he left he dropped a Silph Scope. So I took it and Went to the Pokemon Tower. I got the the 2nd to top floor and when I was about to climb the stairs a ghost appeared! The Silph Scope identified it as the Markowak the Rockets killed. Mr Fuji took me to his house after I met him and he gave me a Pokeflute.

I went to Cycling road and found a idol's house. She gave me HM Fly so I would leave. I went outside and wait! A Snorlax is blocking the entrance. I started playing the Pokeflute and it Woke up and attacked. It was easy to defeat. So I beat all the trainers at Cycling road then all the trainer on the alternative route to Fuchia City. Then to make sure I beat all the trainers on Cycling road I went to Cealdon again. And I noticed I needed a move for Grass types. So I got Ice Beam from the Game Corner. Then I got some tea from an old lady. I decided to let it cool down after I beat Koga.

I went to the gym and feeled my way around until I got to Koga. Hardest gym yet. He almost won by poisoning John. I had to heal every other turn. He almost got me. I found out the next gym was in Saffron so I went to the gates and found out It was closed. But the guard was thirsty and said I could go if I let him have my tea. He told the other guards to let me around from now on. Awesome.

I walked out of the gates of Saffron and found something I didn't like. Rocket grunts. Everywhere.I went to the Dojo and fought my way through. Then I got a Hitmonchan. Then I found Silph Co. The guard for there was snoozing! Ha! I walked right in and saved.
