Monotype No Evo, Challenge!
 
I've seen a couple of threads about solo, monotype pokemon runs, and I decided to create this thread for this purpose. Here are the rules for the run:


1. Challenge is completed once you've beaten Red.
2. You can use GameShark to get your monotypes early.
3. No Legendaries.
4. No Evolutions.
5. You can have HM/Revive Slaves that are different types as long as they're not used in battles.
6. Please Update Frequently.

I will do this challenge using the Normal type. My projected team at the end of the game will consist of Girafarig, Doduo, Snorlax and Ursaring (which I plan to catch first instead of catching a Teddiursa, unless you mean that I am not allowed to catch an Ursaring in which case, I will use a Teddiursa)

Yea, ursaring is an evolved form, teddiursa will work :p

Edit: Chose Totodile as starter, got mystery egg, beaten rival, gave the egg back to Elm, caught Swinub and Phanpy.
Planning on getting this team: Swinub, Phanpy, Cubone, Wooper (might change as the time goes)

Can I shark in some Everstones to buy so I don't have to manually make sure that they don't evolve each time they level up?

Quick Update:
Named character Jack
Took Totodile to be an HM slave later on
Did all of the beginning things and named rival Silver
Sharked in a Doduo to be my first Pokemon (which surprisingly used up most of my Pokeballs considering it was only level 3)
Boxed Totodile who was at Level 9
Grinded Doduo up to Level 11, he learned Pursuit along the way
Fought my way through Sprout Tower and Doduo leveled up to Level 14
Beat Falkner to earn my first badge
Got the Togepi egg, got Doduo to Level 17, about to begin my first real challenge which will be getting through Union cave using just Pursuit
I actually made it through without healing, but I foolishly challenged the hiker outside of Union Cave and lost, forcing me to go through it all over again
With Doduo at Level 20, I challenged Bugsy and, as you may expect, I won easily
Withdrew Totodile from box, and proceeded to teach it cut
Doduo learned Tri Attack
Challenged Whitney at Level 26 and I was very worried about Miltank’s Rollout
Clefairy went down with one Tri Attack, but I knew that Miltank would not be so easy
I led with a Tri Attack and to my surprise, Miltank was Frozen!
The battle was very easy from there and I was able to defeat Whitney without taking any damage, which I have never done ever in my entire life
That is all for now, I plan on going and catching a Girafarig during my next update


Current Team:

Tri Attack
Pursuit

Seems like you've done a lot! I have a busy week this week cause Its my last week of school for being a Freshmen in High School. I have a hell lot of hw study guides and studying to prepare for finals, but thanks for doing it.

Update:
Spoiler:
Went to go catch Sudowoodo as HM slave 2, but I forgot to get the Squirtbottle which I seem to have done a low recently
Caught sudowoodo
Traveled all the way to Mount Mortar where I realized that I needed flash
None of my Pokemon can learn flash so I caught a spinarak
Got through Mount Mortar to Mahogany, where I caught my Girafarig
Grinded Girafarig up to Level 29 before entering the Ecruteak gym
Spammed Confusion for the entire gym
Taught Shadow Ball to Girafarig and Surf to Totodile
Defeated the entire Light House
Surfed to Cianwood
Defeated Chuck by using confusion on Primeape and then Drill Peck on Poliwrath
Next was probably the hardest battle I have ever done in my entire life
After failing about 20 times due to the fact that all of my moves are not very effective I finally decided to make up a strategy
I began by catching 2 Rattatas and buying multiple Paralyze Heals
I began by using Girafarig and Confusion on the first Magnemite
He was paralyzed so I switched to my first Rattata to heal my Girafarig
The same thing happened for the next Magnemite
Finally I got to the Steelix with just my Girafarig and my Doduo
Doduo was pretty useless, but it was able to stall long enough for me to fully heal Girfaraig as well as force Jasmine to use her Hyper Potion
After Doduo fainted, I was left to just my Girfaraig
I proceeded to spam Confusion until it had pretty low health, but unfortunately so did I and it was their turn
Luckily, Iron Tail missed and I was finally able to beat Jasmine after about 30 minutes of failing miserably
Allowed Doduo and Girafarig to equally share all battles in Pryce’s Gym and during both Rocket infiltrations
Got through Ice Tunnel and caught a Teddiursa under Blackthorne
Taught Teddiursa all 3 elemental punches
Plan on grinding Teddiursa up to a high level and then taking on Claire

I think Ill do this one. Gonna use Crystal.

Wait maybe Ill actually use Gold.... ah whatever.

myrrhman October 27th, 2011 2:12 PM

How many can we hack in at the beginning? I'm interested in this, but I play the game on 5000% speed, and a lot of time I accidentally evolve the Pokemon, so I'm going to have to use all Pokemon that don't evolve.
