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
