Monotype Challenge
 
Since King is unable to continue running the Monotype challenge, I've decided to take control. The rules are the same and are:

1. The challenge is over once you beat the Elite Four
2. You may only use Pokemon of one type.
3. Dual types are allowed, and count toward a Monotype Challenge of either type. For example: if you are doing a Water Monotype Challenge, it is okay to have a Gyarados, which is part Water and part flying. If you are doing a Flying Monotype Challenge, it is also okay to have a Gyarados, because he, once again, is part water and part flying. Also, you may use a Pokemon that later evolves into a Pokemon with your type. Once again, if you are doing a Flying type run, you may use Magikarp, because it evolves into Gyarados, which is part Flying. This does not work the other way around, though. If you are doing a Normal type Challenge, and have an Eevee, you may not evolve it into a Jolteon, claiming that one of the evolutions was Normal.
4. You must catch the first Pokemon of your type before you leave Dewford town with the exception of Electric types, which you should catch as soon as you are able.
5. You may have up to 3 HM slaves on your team.
6. No legendaries.
7. You may use an emulator, and the speed button, but don't use the emulator to cheat.
8. Multiple people may do the same type.
9. No trading, unless you are evolving a Pokemon.
10. Update regularly.
11. This isn't a race. Take your time and have fun.

Update

I tried Brawly after a got there with the boat but his Machop killed my two pokémon...
But, if you read my first post i got Three pokémon!
After Lombre en Grovyle where killed by lucky crits from Karate Chop
i sent in my Shroomish who simply stalled out Machop and Makuhita with Stun spore, Leech seed and Mega drain.
Then i picked up Flash and catched a Sableye who i gave the name: Slave
I teached it Flash and give that guy, his letter (Forgot his name)
Sailed to Slateport city and cleaned the Museum of Grunts.
I Trainend my team to level 22 and walked Towards May
She got one attack that hit al my pokémon for supper effective damage.
I'm gonna Fake out Shroomish to dead with Lombre
Leech seed, Mega drain Wailmer with Shroomish
And hopefully i Paralyze That chicken with Stunspore and maybe a Leech seed and then Rock tomb it with Grovyle. Wish me luck...



The battle starts and she sents out Wailmer my lombre faket out it and Shroomish leech seed/Mega drained it down. Nice.
But then combusken. Shroomish Stunspored it and it used focus energy.
Then i clicked wrong and i Stun spored again. Ember shut me almost down. Leech seed hits and Combusken was paralyzed.
Then the battle go's this way:
Combusken was paralyzed it can't move!
Shroomish used headbutt
Combusken was paralyzed it can't move!
Shroomish used headbutt
Until it fainted Then camed Shroomish, I switchst in Lombre to kil it.
But then something terrible happend.
I Faket out he was flinched
It Stun spored and i used Astonish
I got Parlyze hax four times in a row and i fainted because of Mega drain!
Grovyle finisht it whit two quick attacks. Damn,
i battled a Combusken with almost no damage and i lose one pokémon to a four levels lower Shroomish!?

Team:

Grovyle 'Blade'
lv. 22
- Rock tomb
- Absorb
- Quick attack
- Pursuit

I'm a little bit disappointed about this guy his moves are not very strong and he did'nt do much.

Lombre 'GreenPizza'
lv. 22
- Astonish
- Absorb
- Nature power
- Fake out

Se above he is not very strong, the only reason i got him is because of Fake out and the fact that Nature power changes to Earthquake on a beach and Shadow bal in a cave.

Shroomish 'Spore'
lv. 22
- Headbutt
- Mega drain
- Stun spore
- Leech seed

Oh i love this little guy he was my last hope VS Brawly and he soloëd Combusken like it was nothing He go's never away, never

I now got two badges!

Maverick Hunter Zero July 10th, 2010 7:31 AM

Alright, I want to start this Challenge, but...I can't decide which type to choose! :15:

So the next person to reply in this thread can go ahead and decide for me and I'll get started!

twinsandvikes777 July 10th, 2010 7:42 AM

@Maverick Hunter Zero, why not try out a Ground type challenge? I haven't seen anyone doing one yet, and there are varied types such as Flygon, Camerupt, Golem, etc.

myrrhman July 10th, 2010 10:41 AM

Yeah, Ground, Flying, Poison, Water or Normal are all pretty easy because of the various types you can get for the first three, and Water and Normal allow you to easily get strong attacks in most (if not all) of the types.

ConnorV July 10th, 2010 11:55 AM

Flying is probably the easiest type of all because of the easy dual types

Maverick Hunter Zero July 10th, 2010 12:15 PM

Well, I'm a man of my word, so Ground type it is! I'll be playing on Emerald and starting once I get back from a wedding I'm attending.

Official Stats Of The Challenge
Name: Maverick Hunter Zero
Type Choice: Ground
Game Chosen: Emerald on VBA


Note:
I've decided to take a different approach to my updates this time. This challenge is rarely going to have screenshots, unlike "Zero And Savior vs The World".

But, these updates will tell an original story, then after the story segment, I breifly list what in-game actual happened so as to cut out any chance of confusion.




"...so now you think you're some kind of a Pokemon Trainer? You're nothing... You're a mistake. You're all the problems in my life wrapped up into a small piece of #### package that I just can't seem to throw away. Well, now I have the chance today to do that. You better be ready boy, because this battle isn't just about a badge, its about life and death now!"

Vincent looked up from his clenched fist, a smirk on his face.

"Are you done spewing garbage from your mouth, or are we going to battle... Father..."


=-=-=-=-=
This isn't the story of the Pokemon trainer, Brendan.
This is the story of the young man, Vincent.
=-=-=-=-=


1. New Beginning

The pouring rain outside made the already cramped environment of the back of the moving van even more uncomfortable, as water had begun to drip from above.

A boy, with knees to his chest and arms folded, quietly sat, staring at the boxes of things that had been his companions through the journey from his old home to his new. The only noise was the sound of the rainfall and the occasional grinding of poor manual shifting by the driver.

Then, with a screech, the truck came to a halt. Two doors loudly opened and closed from the front of the truck, and suddenly the truck bed was pulled down.

"...well? Get out here, Vincent." A voice that was both smooth and sinister came from the new opening.

The boy sat himself up, pulling himself to his feet and jumping from the truck. The mud sloshed under his feet as he landed and thunder rolled in the distance. He could see that outside was just as bleak as it had been in the back. Dark clouds had already moved in and rain was falling at a high rate, making the woman standing before Vincent visually nervous.

"It would decide to downpour on our moving day, eh boy?" She seemed to let the word boy drip from her mouth like venom, and Vincent knew what was coming next. "Make sure the these boxes get inside. And be quick this time, these trucks cost money based on time."

"Yes Mother." Vincent spoke in stiff words. And with that, the woman turned and entered the house that the truck had parked in front of. It was a normal looking house, in a normal looking town, that would now house two normal people.

"Littleroot..." He quietly spoke the name of his new home to himself. Looking back into the truck, he could easily tell this was going to be a long task. He looked around to the driver's side of the car and saw the main mover standing underneath an umbrella with a sandwich in one hand and a cigarette in the other. Vincent attempted to shoot him a puzzled look, but the man never looked up from the muddy ground.

"Hey!" Vincent assertively shouted. The man looked up for a moment, gave an awful sneer, then looked back down to his sandwich.

"I'm on break kid, #### off."

Turning back to the boxes, he took a short yet deep sigh, stepping up into the truck once more to do what he had been told...

=-=-=-=-=
"You wanna blame someone, blame that boy of yours! I didn't want to be a father, eh?! So screw this, screw you...and #### him!"
=-=-=-=-=

Sitting up in his bed, covered in sweat and shaking slightly, Vincent held his head in his palms.

'The same nightmare again...always when something is going to happen...'He began to clear his mind of the words of his dream, and swung his legs over his new bed. He looked out into his empty room with the lone table and PC in the corner. He remembered the day his Mother had been forced to buy him that PC for schooling.

"I can't believe that its a requirement to have one of these! I better never see you use this for anything but school! If you aren't doing schoolwork, don't touch it!"

The red glow from his clock told him it was 8:00 AM, and Vincent sighed quietly. The rain outside was still coming down, and thunder sporadically broke the patterned sound of its fall on the house.

'Maybe a little fresh air...' Vincent pulled his things together and made his way downstairs. Crossing in front of his Mother's room, he saw it packed full of boxes, though her snores still obnoxiously could be heard past them all. Vincent merely pulled his coat collar tighter and made his way out the front door.

Rain smacked him in the face as soon as he stepped outside, and the sky was still darkened with rain clouds. In fact, Vincent noticed oddly that the only light coming from the town was from the giant warehouse building near the edge of town. Knowing nothing waited for him inside his room but hours spent staring at his ceiling, Vincent decided to investigate.

Approaching the windows, he peered inside, and nearly fell back in surprise.

"Pokemon...?" Vincent had only seen pictures and heard stories of these creatures. His home from before never had Pokemon. In fact, they had been deemed a threat to society on his island years before he had been born, and had all been either exterminated or deported to the mainlands. But here they were, inside what wasn't a warehouse, but a lab!

Scientist were moving quickly around the room, what Vincent knew were Pokeballs in their hands, and Pokemon were wildly running around. A man with an air of leadership about him stood near the back, shouting orders out to the other men and women in lab coats. Pressing closer to the window, Vincent could see that the scientist were gathering up Pokemon and placing them onto shelves on the side of room. He squinted his eyes to try and read what the shelves were labeled with, when suddenly, the window gave way and Vincent found himself tumbling into the building. Everything and everyone stopped what they were doing, and turned to look at the intruder. As Vincent picked himself off the floor, drenched clothing and all, he felt a hand grip his shoulder. Fear pulsed through his body as he looked up to see the man he had guessed to be the head scientist. The man looked sternly cold at Vincent, then smiled.

"You're early!"

To be continued...

Summary:
Vincent created.
Set time.
Met Prof. Birch. (Yes, I completely changed how this happens.)
Obtained MUDKIP-(Mudkipz)
...that's it. Don't worry, usually more will actually happen in-game.

Well? What do you guys think? Is it worth it to do my updates like this? Let me know what you all think, and keep on battling!

Maverick Hunter Zero July 15th, 2010 6:21 PM

Decided I'm just gonna write the story for fun for myself, and instead keep the updates here simple and sweet.

Update coming tonight.

TanGone July 18th, 2010 9:43 AM

I'm gonna use ground (sorry Maverick :p) on emerald!

Obvioulsly starting with Mupkipz!! :PD :D

It'll be interesting to see how our challenge will compare to/differ from each other!

UPDATE:

Okay so alot has happened since my last update. I really gotta make sure I update more and not play a ton without writing down what I'm doing... I guess unless I'm doing some magnificent update, I get lost in playing the game. So I guess after this update, I'll do some journal logs in the point of view of Vincent. That way I don't forget to actually update.

Crappy Update:

Well first off, I remembered an important thing, which is that Mudkip's later evolutions are part ground! So hooray for that part!

I caught a Nincada, and then stuck an Everstone on it.

I've taken out two Gym leaders.

I'm now currently in Slateport.

myrrhman July 19th, 2010 9:04 PM

You're good to go.

And why do you have a Nincada on your team, Zero? It seems like it hurts more than helps, with the lack of exp. that Mudkip would be getting.

Lord_Storm July 19th, 2010 10:57 PM

I am going to cancel my challenge due to buying a new laptop and losing all of my data from the challenge.

Timmetje July 20th, 2010 2:12 AM

Al Right another update.
After i beated may i catched a Oddish and grinded it to 25 It evolved in a gloom.
Gloom sweeped away Wally's Ralts and beated the trainers in the gym.

So after i beated my dad i picked up Surf and did the New Mauville side quest
And my reward was the worthless Thunderbolt.
I captured a Cacnea and named it Needle.
I raced to Fortree city and in the routes i evolved Gloom in to Vileplume and captured a Tropius named Bronto.
I Grinded to level 36 where Cacnea and Grovyle evolved.
I tryed Winona and beated her first pokémon really quick. But then Altaria getted up three dragon dances when i tryed to leech seed/Poison powder her.
I grinded to level 40 and tryed again. This time i beat:
her Swellow with Tropius
her Pelipper with Sceptile
her Skarmory with Breloom
And with Brelooms Leech seed Vileplumes Poison powder and Cacturnes Coolness. (He survived a +2 Aerial ace) i beated her Altaria.

Part 3 of my monotype challange
____________________________
I went into the gym and beat wiona with trouble on her skarmory and got my 6th badge. (SKARMORY???? SERIOUSLY?). Then I left and went along the route I took to get the devon scope. I ended up in lilycove city! But I saw A ton of magma grunts! I talked to them and found out about there scheme back in slateport! They were going to steal Capt. Stern's boat! I used tropius to fly back to slateport! I went to the harbor ASAP! And there he was, Capt. Stern! I talked to him and went inside the harbor. There, standing on the edge of the harbor was Maxie! Evil Maxie. He got away on Capt. Sterns boat before I could catch him! I flew back to lilycove and went inside there hidden base out a little from lilycove! It was time to finish him once and for all! As I made my way through there confusing base, I fought off the Grunts and battle Admin Tabitha for the third time! I found a masterball!!!!!!!! Maxie got away agian! I chased him all the way to Mossdeep City! I trained Trapinch to lv.35! He evolved into Vibrava! At mossdeep I found Steven! He gave me Tm08 Dive! Next I took on the gym. Wow! I had never seen a gym like this! Yiu had to flip the switches to make a track to the gym leaders! Each time you flicked a switch you had to go back to the front of the gym to try your track. Until you hit the last switch the track would lead you to the next! I finally made my way to the leaders. Yep. there were 2 ledaers. Lisa and Tate, pshycic type gym leaders who look like ther 7 years old. Lunatone and Solrock? lv.42 each Power at lv.33 and destroyer and 34? Could we beat the? Well Power might not be able to take one hit if they use any rock type moves, but destroyer is powerful and durable. So is vibrava! We won by luck. wwe beat solrock first knowing it was about to use flamethrower from the fact that it used sunny day. lunatone came next. he was much easier to beat. although psychich was deadly, power and destroyer came out as the victor. We now had our 7th badge! After I beat the gym I tried to teach dive to one of my slaves but unluckily no one could learn it.... so i went and caught a water type pokemon: tentacool. i went to my pc and put castform in and taught tentacool dive! I went out to sea and went underwater and found a cave! I went in and there was team magmas stolen submarine! I finally evolved Power into an Alraia! After Along time of wandering around at sea I finally found my way into sootopolis city. I head Straight for the gym. But the door is closed! Hmm? Now how do I open it? I finally remembered from the other times that i played ruby and sapphire that i had to go to the abbanded ship! I used tropius to fly me to slateport were I could find it.
With a little trouble I found all the keys. In the last room i found a scanner! I decided to take it to capt. stern. I tradede it for a deepseatooth. I decided to go back to the submarine. and there I went up and found seafloor cavern.
Team:
Altaria (Power) Lv.35
Dragonaire (Destroyer) Lv.37
Vibrava Lv.35
And my three slaves
