Ultimate Solo Challenge
Due to the abundance of people that like to sign up for challenges and then disappear, I will now add you after you post your first progress.
Rather surprised that someone hasn't made this thread yet. There were Monotype Challenges and then the Ultimate Monotype Challenge, and there are Solo Challenges and now the Ultimate Solo Challenge. Pick any Pokemon (has to be from one of the first 3 gens, sorry Sinnoh). Now you play through every region using only that Pokemon. Get it at the first opportunity to do so, whether it be via trade, egg, or hacking it in with a Gameshark or Emulator. Just please, if you do the last one, don't be tempted to use any other cheats!!! For example, because I'm sure someone won't understand. If you pick Sableye as your solo runner, start with FireRed/LeafGreen. Beat one of those with Sableye. Then move to HG/SS. Beat that with Sableye. Then beat RSE with Sableye, and finally beat DPPt with Sableye. Doesn't matter which generation you do, as long as it is in the set. Rules: 1. Beat all four regions using a single Pokemon. The same Pokemon each time. 2. Only use your solo runner for battling. If you have to be in a double battle, you may use other Pokemon, but they aren't allowed to be trained otherwise, so they'll probably suck and won't do any kind of damage. 3. You are allowed up to three HM slaves. This means you should have 2 empty slots in your party. You may use your HM slaves for reviving purposes, yada yada yada, just don't train them at all. 4. Your challenge ends when you: Beat the elite four in FR/LG, Beat Red in HG/SS, beat the elite four in RSE, and beat the elite four in DPPt. 5. As soon as you post saying "I will do this challenge with __________" you may start. Don't PM me saying "I joined your challenge, plz accept kthx" because that will piss me off and I might "forget" to update saying that you're accepted. When you post, you're accepted. 6. The same applies for any progress that you make. Don't PM me saying "k i beet Red nao update plz." I get on Pokecommunity lots. I will update daily. 7. Please update frequently. Like every other gym or so. If you are the type of person who likes to open up VBA or whatever and just type your post as you go, that is fine, and I don't mind if you make one whole update telling me your whole story. Do NOT, however, say "I beat Fire Red version...I beat Red in Heart Gold." I don't like this. Put some effort into your post and actually tell me how you did. I'm curious. 8. Have fun. This is the most important one of all! Just kidding, the first one is the most important for this challenge Thanks to Fire Wolf, we have userbars now!! Everyone, say "Thanks, Fire Wolf" http://i45.*.com/ei10mx.png http://i46.*.com/25jkz95.png And here is where you'll see your name, the competitor, based on number of games completed (since it really doesn't matter what order you do them in). 0 complete: Spoiler:

And here is where I want to see your name, the champion: # 1: Daniehej: FR C E D:t248: # 2: koldsned: FR G E D:t003: |
This sounds like Fun! Uhh, an idea would be as also another challenge is to defeat the Pokemon Hall in battle frontiers.
Hmm.... I'll do this with Charmander > Charmeleon > Charizard. May I start on Fire Red? :) |
and the first contestant is signed up! Welcome and good luck.
Yeah, I thought about doing something that wasn't main storyline, but I figured that beating all the games with one Pokemon was hard enough. Well, not hard enough, more like long enough. |
I will do slowpoke/slowbro
Starting on yellow. :D I will record only hard or elite four fights - did starting things - beat rival - delivered oaks parcel - caught slowpoke using encounter cheat - forgot to battle rival - moved to pewter - beat brock(2HKO with confusion) - moved to cerulean - beat misty Staryu: 3HKO with confusion Stamie: she keeps using harden or tackle,while I confusion/bide way - beat rival(cerulean) 2HKO spearow and evee,OHKO sandshrew,rattata with bubblebeam - beat nugget bridge - moved to vermilion - beat rival,OHKO everything bar evee(2HKO) - got cut - beat lt surge(OHKO with dig) http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/a/a5/Spr_1y_079.png Brain Lv 31 - confusion - bubblebeam - dig - thunder wave Hm Slaves: Charmander(cut) Pikachu(flash) |
Progress report:I met my Charmander in prof. Oaks lab, we won our first fight together against our rival, and we were off on our journey. He was level 10 before reaching Viridian, and I had a Charmeleon by the time I was at Pewter. A lucky break against Brock's Onix using Tackle & Bind instead of Rock Tomb got us our first badge.Going through Mt Moon was a sinch, and I had picked up some HM Slaves, a Pidgey, Clefable & Geodude. A loss against Misty with my level 23 Charmeleon made me angry, so I beat my rival and all the trainers up to Bill. I vsed Misty again with my now level 30 Charmeleon, and I was off to Vermillion. I beat all the trainers on the S.S Anne, including my rival and I got CUT from the Captain. I caught a Diglett in the cave and gave it Cut.We will now see if my Charmeleoon (With moves Ember-Mega Punch-Dig-Metal Claw) can beat Lt Surge, before i evolve it, as I don't want it to be weak to Electric. Wish us luck on our journey!Safety Signing off with Charmeleon
*Edit: Beat Lt. Surge. 1HKO Voltorb & Pikachu, but with a paralysis from pikachu leaving me unable to use Dig. One ember + Mega Punch took care of Raichu, and leveled my Charmeleon to level 34, meaning I got flamethrower =D |

Because I'm being a douche about my Brown Nuzlocke and put it on hiatus, I will try this in the meantime to kill time. But, with some slightly edited rules:
1. Team = Solo Runner + 3 Slaves (less if possible) 2. Solo runner faints -> I lose 3. No switching (for healing purposes or whatever) 4. Double Battle? Kill Slaves before doing anything else. 5. No Pickup 6. No recatching for Nature/ability 7. No SRing if things don't go as planned My Solo Runner shall be Stantler. Yes, that one thing nobody ever cares about. Version order is Fire Red->Gold->Ruby->Diamond So, pretty much always the first one. And here is already my first update Spoiler:
And here's Nr.2 Spoiler:
|
Sorry I've just been off pokemon a while. I will start emerald as soon as 2 things happens:
1. I figure out how to play GBA games on my DSiXL (anyone know? is it even possible?) 2. I catch a ditto and get an egg of charmander |
Quote:
Also, Update is here. Spoiler:
Somehow, I did manage it... Spoiler:

|
O_O This has peeked my interest...I'm going to do this with...FARFETCH'D!!!!
...Ehh it's going to be awhile...well I guess I can use an emulator, so I'll start on it in a bit, but I'm doing a monotype challenge at the moment, so I might be preoccupied for a bit. EDIT: Yellow-Crystal-Emerald-Platinum |
Fuschia Stuff. Took me quite a while, so many routes...
Spoiler:
Update containing 2 (!) gyms Spoiler:
Next: The Elite 4. First round. |
Hmmm i'll take you up on this challenge. I'll use Nidokings Family using the Games as Nidoking is pure win. I'm going to be recording this challenge so all rival fights and whatnot will be recorded. Hmm you say that emerald finishes at elite four... can you move onto steven if you wish?
Anyways game order will be Red>Crystal>Emerald>Platinum I'm going to start on it now so wish me luck |
Elite 4 time!
Spoiler:
Champion battle is up. And it was epic, the most epic champion battle I ever fought. Spoiler:
|

Oh You Make Me Lol. Well he Is getting Old, he has been around for like 20 years without aging so somethings going wrong. Actually he looks like he is getting younger. |
I picked out my starter of Nidoran♂ which replaced Bulbasaur. So my rival has a Charmander. Beat the first rival easy but didn't record that as well thats not necessary to win.
Waltzed and did the whole Pokédex stuff and then went to face Gary before the Pokémon league http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bHnxl-CxOg Only trouble with gary would have been his Sand-attack but bar that he was easy. Travelled to Viridian Forest and made it through there with ease and then i had a brain fart. I forgot that you don't learn double kick early on red, thats only on yellow. Still managed to beat brock fine though http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PK8aEGful_o I'll update when i've done misty and 2nd Gary. |
I'm bored so I guess I'll do this.
My games will be as Follows FR, C, E, Pt I'll be starting on Crystal, Using Hoppip (I feel like a change of pace since I've been playing alot of FR lately) I'll be adding the following rules to my challenge: - No Evolutions - No Revives My updates will probably be in the form of youtube videos, I hope you don't mind. |
heh personally i find that youtube videos are better at keeping track as this way you can watch the battle yourself. Thats why i also opted for youtube videos over screenshots.
|
mondays, how the F*** did you beat youngster Joey's Ratatta? Did you hear that its in the top percentage of all Ratattas? You know what I'm saying? You're like a god among men.

Updates :D -
- Went Through Ice Path And Got To Blackthorn - Then Flew back to Goldenrod - Whupped The Team Rockets - Got Lost In Underground Posideon Level 50! |
First Update - Vs Falkner.

You CAN post Youtube vids here you know.
Guy above me. Here is ur video in a spoiler Spoiler:

I'm used to using [flash][/flash] tags on forums I normally visit. Thanks for informing me.

I'm joining this Solo Challenge with Dratini. I'll be doing Fire Red, Crystal, Emerald and Platinum. (In that order.)
|
Lol
Goooood Luck My Friend. You will get irritated fast. I done a Dratini run for a while but I gave up because Wrap is a crap move and it takes forEVER to kill. Gooooood Luck. |
I am going to join this challenge, I will do the same as Akeraz and Kozoi using Remoraid. I will also keep updated with youtube videos. I'll do crystal first, then Fire Red, then Emerald and finally Platinum.
Here is my first video (should be better quality next time): Spoiler:

Well yeah, that was my strategy: Fight fire with fire. The only way to beat top percentage Pokemon is using top percentage Pokemon as well. Better top percentage Pokemon. An idea only a god among men could come up with. By the way, because I'm lazy as hell (and had sports in the afternoon) today, there will be no update until tomorrow. I know, I'm a terrible person http://209.85.122.87/5908/85/0/e5011287//e5011287.png |

Hey, I'm probably going to attempt this. I saw this through Shadowblitz's Youtube channel and thought why not, so signed up and here I am! I'm going to use Bulbasaur and play Fire Red, Gold, Emerald and then Platinum all being well. First update should be around tomorrow sometime.
Good luck to everyone else! |
- beat whitney(curse x 6 then headbutt)

All right, everyone is updated. Thanks to everyone new participating (and shadowblitz for bringing in a newcomer from youtube)
|
So got quite far here is the video update!
Spoiler:
So far so good. The first Gary battle wasn't too bad but I thought Pidgey knew Gust so I was careful but he didn't use it. Charmander was easy as he didn't know ember... yet. Brock was pathetic but got me evolved. The second Gary battle was tough. Pidgeotto was ok but lowered my accuracy causing problems later. Charmander is deadly now. I managed to poison and seed him and then just heal. I barely made it but Abra and Rattata fell easy. Phew. There are only a few problems I can see with Fire Red at the moment. Gary battles will be tough as he has a few pokemon that can do 2x damage against me. There is Charmander, Abra, Exeggcute AND Pidgey. Oh well. There is also Blaine and Sabrina but I'll deal with them when I get there. |
Update time!
Vs. Bugsy Spoiler:
People told me fury cutter would be a pain in the ass here. However, you'll see I have a solution right here. Vs. Silver (2) Spoiler:
This was a much more worrying battle. One of his Pokes I couldn't even hit and had to sleepseed it to beat, and another had super effective on me. As you can see though, I managed to scrape through quite well. |
Since I have a tendency for doing insane challenges for fun and stuff I figure, hey, why not? I could do something "fun" like Sunkern but, nah, probably a wee bit too difficult so I'll throw my hat into the ring with the Marill family (Azurill, Marill, Azumarill) since whilst not quite as difficult it should still be balls hard and I'm all about that.
Much like my good buddy, xShadowBlitzx, I'll be recording the important details but I'll also probably record me whining incessently via Audacity if I get the time/think it's warranted for that video (in some cases I'm sure it will be...). I'll also try to avoid grinding, if ever possible, since where's the challenge when you just walk over everything. I'll try to post every day, every other day at the latest, but if I don't then it's likely because I'm at a wall and thus need to grind like crazy. Tl;dr: doing Marill stuff. Fire Red -> Gold -> Sapphire -> Diamond |
Here's my tl;dr update for you guys. I also uploaded the battle against Brock. It's at the bottom of the update in a spoiler tag.
► Started Fire Red I chose to play on Pokémon Fire Red Version because of the various improvements over the original Red Version. For starters, the CPU improvement. In the older games, the CPU wasn't all that challenging. There was also the fact that the newer games had various factors which determined your Pokémons stats. (Effort values, individual values, natures, etc.) In first generation, ther was also a problem with some of the TMs. They had TMs like Water Gun in Mount Moon, which seemed pretty useless to me. Finally, there were problems like the Special Stat not being split into Attack and Defence and Speed relying on how often you get critical hits. So yeah, I decided to play Fire Red. ► Chose Dratini Luckily, I had a program called A-Starter which allowed me to hack Dratini into the slot where you'd usually receive Bulbasaur. Because of this, my rival chose Charmander. So yeah, I received a Hasty Dratini with Wrap as its only means of defending itself in battle. I was originally going to call my Dratini Claude, but then I realised it was female so I decided to call it Cynthia instead. ► Rival Battle After receiving my starter, Akeraz decided to be mean and challenge me to a battle before I could even exit the lab and train up on Route One. His Charmander was brutal, it got two critical hits on me and I was unable to even get it down to half health with Wrap and Leer. The fact that Hasty is a -Defence nature probably didn't help the situation either. ► Route One I went through Route One while listening to the Viridian City OST from the Pokémon Anime. (Yeah, I'm a nerd.) A Pidgey actually made made me black out by constantly getting critical hits on Cynthia while I was trying to lower its defence with Leer. By the time I made it to Viridian City I was Level Six and I had one hit point left. ► Delivered Oak's Parcel I was told by some guy in Viridian Pokémart to deliver a Parcel to Professor Oak. So yeah, I delivered said parcel and received a Pokédex and five Pokéballs in exchange. ► Pokémart Visit I went to the Pokémart and bought myself five more Pokéballs, just in-case I encountered a Shiny. I spent the rest on Potions, because I didn't think that much would status me and I thought that Shed Skin would recover any statuses anyway. ► Viridian Forest I entered Viridian Forest and I trained up to Level Eight and learnt Thunder-Wave. Stuff kept Poisoning me and Shed Skin kept refusing to activate, so I ended up wasting a few Potions while training Cynthia up. After the training, I decided to attempt Viridian Forest. Unfortunately, the swarms of Weedle kept Poisoning me and getting critical hits, so I decided to turn back and train some more. I ended up training up to Level Eleven and then attempting Viridian Forest again. I made it through a lot of the trainers, until the Bug Catcher with the Kakuna and Metapod. On his last Pokémon, I realised that I had no more Wrap PP left and so I had to Struggle for the win. By the end of the battle, I had no Potions left so I had to take a trip back to the Pokécenter before finishing Viridian Forest off. ► Rival Battle I decided to take a quick peek inside of Brock's Gym and challenge the trainer inside. He had a Geodude, which proven to be a huge problem because of my only attacks being Wrap, Leer and Thunder-Wave. Eventually, I managed to beat his Geodude and his Sandshrew. I decided that there was no way that I could challenge Brock, so I decided to double back to Viridian City and challenge Akeraz. His Pidgey was a huge problem, because it kept spamming Sand-Attack. I still managed to win and gain some nice experience. Knowing that the experience I had gained wasn't enough, I decided to train up some more in Viridian Forest and I grew to Level Fifteen and learnt Twister. (A fairly effective Dragon-type attack, considering Brock's Pokémon are all fairly weak on the Special side and that all Dragon moves are Special in Third Generation.) ► Brock Battle Brock wasn't too difficult. I just spammed Twister like there was no tomorrow and I got Rock Tomb and the Boulder Badge. Feeling a lot more confident in Cynthia, I decided to go and make my way to Mount Moon. ► Video vs Brock Spoiler:
|
I made my way to vermillion city but just before that the bug catcher with the butterfree managed to kill me due to pure annoyance.
Anyways i went through SS.Anne without fighting a single trainer and made my way to gary Spoiler:
Alot less annoying than last time and i got myself the Cut HM.. YAY Went and caught a oddish to be a cut slave and tackled the Gym. What made me laugh is that both switches was in the same bin which is very odd. Anyways i then faced off against Lt. Surge Spoiler:
After i won this i replaced thrash with thunderbolt so i'm not tempted to use thrash anymore and now i got the fun task of going through rock tunnel with no flash so i'll update after the 4th Gym and Giovanni. |
Will go with Gastly, methinks.
|
Here we go with the next update:
Spoiler:
I beat union cave and team rocket in slowpoke well with ease. I reached the level from the gods for remoraid, level 22. I learned aurora, psy and bubblebeam, I also got TM swift. Dinner made Bugsy look like a piece of cake. Scyther? Meh. Dinner also made Silver look easy, however Dinner still has a phobia of planty things such as vines and leaves. |
I'll do this challenge. I'll take Koffing/Weezing. I'll go FR,G,Ruby,Platinum
|
I quickly played from azalea to goldenrod gym, here's the update video:
Spoiler:
Miltank. What are you like eh? Dinner is just too good though, he was never going to die. |
I'll do this challenge aswell !
I'll do it on FR / HG / E / Pt w/ Gravler [ sorry if I spelt that wrong .] |
Here is my first update...
I named myself Pleryt and rival Ugly I picked Koffing and he chose Charmander My Koffing (Gas) demolished his Charmander I got and delivered Oak's Parcel Got the Pokedex Trained up to level 9 Beat Gary Made my way through Viridian Forest Beat Brock (it was very hard) Team: Gas (Koffing) level 14 Tackle Smog Poison Gas Going to go through Mt.Moon now |
While reading the OP, I saw this::t001:
From now, I will always see Bulbasaur this way, I can't unsee it anymore. Spoiler:
Also, Update time. Spoiler:
|
At a vast rate of knots, here's the next update:
Spoiler:
|
Second Update! Yay!
Got through Mt. Moon (the hikers were very hard) Beat Ugly(rival) Got to bill (once again, the two hikers were hard) Somehow beat Misty Koffing is level 27 with the moves Sludge, Tackle,Poison Gas, and Smokescreen Have a Paras for Cut and Flash |
Ok next update!
Spoiler:
Well nothing much to report. Misty was easy as expected, and Gary on the Anne was also not bad but his ember still managed to get a burn. L.t Surge also fails as a Gym Leader. Then we get Gary again who still isn't too tough but his Kadabra and his Exeggcute can dish out the damage when they get going. Giovanni... well... fails. |
► Vs. Misty
Spoiler:
I don't plan on doing tl;dr updates anymore. I'll just post videos and make sure to show my Dratini's stats and move-sets in each video. |
Third Update! Yay!
I got to Vermillion city. I battled all the people outside of the sity on both sides. Gas was at level 31 by then. I went through the S.S. Anne and beat my rival. Gas needed one more person to evolve so I went and beat some wild pokemon. Gas evolved into Weezing!I went and took 6 damage in the gym (all from the gym trainers) and Gas grew to level 36! Weezing level 36 Tackle Sludge Poison Gas Smokescreen |
Update time again
Vs. Whitney Spoiler:
This one took three attempts. Rollout was a pain and sleepseed was my only viable strategy against that damned miltank. Vs. Silver Spoiler:
Actually got this one on the first try.. Thought I was going to need to retry this one because of curse. As for morty.. Just no. I think I'm going to do Olivine lighthouse then come back and try later. |
► Vs. Lt Surge
Spoiler:
|
Fourth update!
I got through the big cave (forgot the name) and went to beat my rival,Ugly. I went and fought all the trainers on all three sides of Lavender Town and went to beat Team Rocket. No damage at all was done (to me). I beat Erika simply and I'm currently in the Ghost place. Also, I just hit fifty as I'm writing this! Gas (Weezing) level 50 Sludge Return Poison Gas Shock Wave |

Would it be agianst the rules if I Gamesharked my Cubone to be Lvl. 7 so it atleast knows an attacking move?
|
Another update because I'll probably be out of action for a few days.
Spoiler:
Erika was pretty easy. Now Gary at Sliph Co. was another matter all together. It took me about 10 tries to get a tactic and then another 10 to put it into action. Using growth I upped my special attack as much as I could whilst taking wing attacks from Pidgeot (Seeded to lessen damage). Afterwards, I knew Exeggcute could paralyse so I attached a cure berry to avoid it. With my Special attack increased I managed to take down Alakazam but then came the beast, Charizard. I was lucky he avoided using flamethrower for two turns but the misses hurt. I manage to land a seed, tackle hard and tank the flame to scrape through. Gyarados was not a problem thankfully. Gary is going to be a major problem in the Elite 4. |
Started Fire Red, Gave Oak a Parcel, got the pokedex, and I caught a Cubone. It took me ages to get it to level nine so it learned Bone Club :X
|
Beat Erika at level 20, she was amazingly easy.
I taught my Furret Mud Slap and it learned Fury Swipes. Beat Whitney, since mudslap is amazing. |
Newesst update!
I got through Pokemon Tower and went down to Fuschia. I beat Koga and went to Saffron. I beat my rival Ugly and destroyed TR. I ventured to the gym and beat the leader. I had to run to Fuschia cause I have no fly slave. I surfed and got through Seafoam Islands and got through the west of the way to Cinnabar. I got through Pokemon Mansion and beat Blaine. Then I surfed to Pallet town and ran to Virdian City to beat Giovanni. I won. I headed to the Pokemon League and beat Ugly again. I got through Victory Road and am at the Indigo Plateau. Next Update will be about Elite 4. Gas level 67 Sludge Toxic Return Shock Wave Update! Elite 4! Lorelei: No problem, swept through her team Bruno: Took four tries to beat. Agatha: Simple, Curse was annoying Lance: Simple used three rare candies on Gas Ugly: Sorta hard Gas (Weezing) level 74 Sludge Toxic Return Shock Wave How do you change starters in pokemon Gold or change the wild pokemon? I need Koffing. Anyways, can i do emerald before gold? |
I've not got a update yet but i'm going to answer pleryt16's question about changing starters in gold.
if you go to the rom hacking section of this forum you'll find the toolcase's people have made. Look for swamperts as he has a program that can change the starters for GSC. I'll update when i get time but with my Liquid crystal LP, Starting a MGS2 LP and my exams and college.. I don't get time for much else. |
► Vs. Erika
Spoiler:
After lots of messing around, I took on Erika. My Dratini is really over-leveled, mainly because I battled everyone and anyone so I could afford TM Flamethrower from the Game Corner. I just need to get Outrage now and I'll have a pretty darn solid move-set. |
Thank You xShadowBlitzx. Really needed to know.
|
