Two Attack Challenge
How well can you play a game when your pokemon can only use two moves?
Basically, you can only have three pokemon, and during the whole playthrough you can only use one damage-inflicting attack and one status move for each of your three(or less) pokemon. That means that you'd have, at max, only three different type attacks making many gyms much more harder(as there would only be a few gyms that you have attacks that you are super-effective against). Now that you mention it, the whole game would be much harder, as you would be stuck using moves like tackle and scratch! Rules: -You can only use three pokemon for battle(you can have as many HM-slaves as you want). -Once you battle with a pokemon, AKA use a move (this excludes when all three(or less) of your pokemon are fainted and you are forced to use an HM-slave) it is considered part of your team. -^^^Regarding the above rule, you can use 'sacrifice' pokemon--pokemon you switch in to get a free switch with another pokemon. -During the whole playthrough, each of your pokemon can only use one damage-inflicting attack and one status move. You can choose to not use one status move at all or a damage-inflicting move at all for a pokemon. -You can include any pokemon into your team at any time, but you may not replace a pokemon already in your team(save for HM slaves, of course) -The second a move is used, it is considered that pokemon's status/damage-inflicting move and that pokemon may not use another status or damage-inflicting move. -The only exception to the rule is when the PP of BOTH moves for a pokemon have been used, and it is the only pokemon the user has left, and has no PP-regaining items. Then the user is able to use another move. If the user has used up the PP of only one move, they must use the other move until it's PP runs out/defeats the opponent, and if they have another pokemon(except HM slaves) they must switch to that pokemon. -I've stated it before, and it's pretty obvious, but I just wanted to make it absolutely clear: you may not change the moves. Well, I think that's it. Have fun! Challenging: chaos11011, tente2 Champions: mondays suck Well, have fun! http://www.pokecommunity.com/C:%5CDocuments%20and%20Settings%5CRoberto%5CMy%20Documents%5CEmuGames%5CPokemon%5CPokemon%20Crystal%5CVicente%5CCrystal%20Two-Move%20Challenge%20Playthrough%20Screenies |
Now this looks like one challenging challenge, and even without it being a Nuzlocke. The Elite 4 is going to be REALLY hard to beat, I foresee either massive overleveling or tons of healing items+struggle...
Here's my planned team: Totodile - Scratch, Leer (I'll try to delay this and go for screech though) Hoppip - Leech Seed, Mega Drain Magnemite - Thunder Shock, Thunder Wave That's going to be a lot of bait+switch grinding for Hoppip, but it shall be worth it. Forgot to mention: the version shall be Silver. And now I'll start. First Update! Spoiler:
More Update: Spoiler:
And more Spoiler:

Uggh. I barely made any progress at all, because I ad to go somewhere, and I only got to play, like 5 minutes(counting the time it took to take the screenshots), so I barely did anything. I'll get up to Morty in the meantime, but here are is my (barely) progress:
Spoiler:
I just noticed I probably could have beat bugsy if I hadn't taken so many screens... Next time you see me, I'll be in Ecruteak City. |
Yet another update. A very low eventful things/spent time rate, but here it is anyways:
Spoiler:
Now I've finally reached the point where I can stop excess grinding and do some plot stuff, like this: Spoiler:

lol thats some dedication there guys, no way could i find the time or patience to do that
|
Sorry, for the EXTREME delay, but I had to get a hair cut. I actually haven't gotten to Ecruteak like I promised, simply because I haven't beat Whitney. She's so hard! I've tried so many times that I don't know how many. There were about two REALLY close ones(as you can see in ones of the screens) Well, I'm going to take a break. Here it is:
Current Team: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/9/91/Spr_2c_156.gif Debon, lv. 22 Moves: -Tackle -Smokecreen http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/8/8f/Spr_2c_164.gif Albus, lv. 23 Moves: -Tackle -Foresight http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/5/58/Spr_2c_060.gif Shanoa, lv. 23 Moves: -Bubble -Hypnosis Spoiler:

So I finished Radio Tower and got to Blackthorn. I had problems beating Clair's gym trainers (no deaths, but those Dragonairs were VERY annoying), so I'll have to do some grinding before challenging her. And by some, I mean a lot.
Here's the team: http://i37.*.com/21nnl9l_th.png Movesets (yeah, I'm too lazy too screenshot them as well): Claws - Scratch Parasite - Mega Drain, Leech Seed Miracles - Thunder Shock, Thunder Wave Poliwhirl - Surf, Strength, Whirlpool, Waterfall Paras - Cut, Flash, Rock Smash, Dig Spearow - Fly Update: Leveled up to level 50. Beat Clair. Damn, that was hard. Leech Seed+Magneton brought down the Dragonairs easily, but Kingdra was a pain. It almost killed Parasite, then Miracles was very close to death after a very long battle full of both sides being paralyzed all the time - Kingdra was paralyzed a lot less often though http://www.pokecommunity.com/data:image/jpeg;base64,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 Well, in the end, I switched to Claws and finished off the heavily weakened (I love you, Leech Seed) easily. Should probably have done that earlier, but then again it wasn't my fault that Magneton was paralyzed all the time (actually the only thing it managed to do was one Thunder Wave) http://i38.*.com/mbhnuw_th.png With Clair having been so much trouble, I'm definetely not looking forward to the Elite 4. Especially since I'll only have 14 Leech Seeds (with the PP Ups from Violet and Ice Path, did I forget any?) against 26 Pokemon. By the way, Claws knows Screech now. A great help for Scratch's power. |
...Anyone? I thought that this challenge would bring more people...
|
Yeah, it's a sad thing, this challenge is certainly a fun one, despite being quite a grindfest.
Speaking of grinding, I'm currently in the process of getting my team to level 58, and then challenge the Elite 4. Why 58? Well, I was originally planning to grind only to level 55, but Feraligatr learns Hydro Pump at 58, and I don't want to risk getting into a no-PP-situation and having other moves. And those 3 extra levels won't harm anyways. Dammit, I had written hell of an update, and then: Database error. Not going to write all that stuff again. So, what did I do? I beat the Elite 4, no losses except for 3 Super Potions, 1or 2 Paralysis healers and 2 or 3 Hyper Potions (only one of them in battle though). Pretty easy overall, only that damned Vileplume (because my team is so horrible vs grass types) and Lance's Outrage Dragonite (almost killed Claws with a crit) caused problems. |
hum.....i might try it.....maybe...
|

It's a lot of work, trust me. Anyways, guys, sorry for not updating anything in a long time, but I've been busy lately with my Bug Monotype Challenge and I haven't got to playing much. I'll update after Jasmine. Or Clair. Or the Elite Four. I don't know. And... WHITNEY WAS HARD. |
So I guess regular "Typed" updates will have to do.
I beat Falkner and Bugzy. And for the rival Im not sure if it is allowed but during his Gastly I wasted all my Tackle and Poison Powder PP to use Razor Leaf.My nick names for my pokemon will be Naro (Meganium) Psychopath (Kadabra) and SeaOfLight (Laturn)Also I hate bugzy to me 1,000,000 save states just to make him miss Fury Cutter >.> Naro Lvl 27 Psychopath 22 EDIT:Whittney Beat Poison Stall from Naro. |

As for my run, I've been somewhat busy lazy recently, but I'll probably continue on the weekend. |

You should of told me this when I spent half an hour talking like, 30 screenshots and then ended up only using like, 5 for my Bug Monotype Challenge. Anyway, Update Time! I would of done this earlier if it weren't for the fact a certain someone decided today was the day he wanted to play his Emerald for the whole day...and then when I was heading towards Chuck my emulator starting glitching up so I got scared and stopped right there so I wouldn't lose any data. -Beat Whitney (Finally!) Beat Morty Real Fast, Beat Lighthouse. Current Team: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/9/91/Spr_2c_156.gif Debon, lv 30 Moves: -Tackle -Smokescreen http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/8/8f/Spr_2c_164.gif Albus, lv. 30 Moves: -Tackle -Foresight http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/d/d9/Spr_2c_061.gif Shanoa, lv. 29 Moves: -Bubble -Hypnosis ^^^lol, I ran into four(I forgot what Quilava was called so I searched Cyndaquil) disambiguation pages while looking for the sprites(Ash's Noctowl and Quilava, Misty's former Poliwhirl). I never noticed all three pokemon I picked where owned by anime characters. http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_InyourfaceThatsrightSOBSOBALLYOUWANT.jpg?t=1283462589http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_YeahImmeanWhateverCRY.jpg?t=1283462589http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_BattlingSilverForTheThirdTime.jpg?t=1283462589http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_Poliwhirl.jpg?t=1283462589http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_Morty.jpg?t=1283462589 That's right, Whitney! CRY! CRY! CRY LIKE THE LOSER YOU ARE! HAHAHA! ...Yeah, I had to do that. More coming soon. |

Well, on the bright side, I can probably take much more screenshots. See you after Jasmine gets her ass kicked. EDIT: Well, turns out that if I try to play my Crystal on VBA, I have to start all over again since I was playing on Playguy(the only reason I play gen 1 & 2 games on Playguy is because Playguy automatically opens the screen in the size I like). Whatever, I guess I'm back to crappy screenshots. |
Turns out I forgot to save FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU >.>
I grinded my guys to Lvl 40 wasting 1 Hour and a Half of my life errrr how annoying. I might not do this cause my time feels wasted,but Ill think about it. |
Well, Update Time!
-Beat Chuck -Beat Eisune -Got beat by Jasmine, stopped there to grind because I knew I had no chance to beat her(I didn't even get to her Steelix!) Not a lot, but better than before! Current Team: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/9/91/Spr_2c_156.gif Debon, lv 32 Moves: -Tackle -Smokescreen http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/8/8f/Spr_2c_164.gif Albus, lv. 33 Moves: -Tackle -Foresight http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/d/d9/Spr_2c_061.gif Shanoa, lv. 34 Moves: -Bubble -Hypnosis http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_Eusine.jpg?t=1283548050http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_Chuck.jpg?t=1283548050http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_Magby.jpg?t=1283548050http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f172/tente_01/th_BeforeJasmine.jpg?t=1283548050 ^^^^The reason that there is a screen of a Magby is because about half an hour ago I learned that the day-care couple actually give you an egg even before you let them take care of any pokemon! The Odd Egg I believe. Anyway, I got to say that today my Shanoa really shined. I thought Albus would be able to take on Chuck be himself, but he fainted as soon as Chuck brought out his Poliwrath. Shanoa took him on all by herself! And, special mention to: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/c/c1/Spr_2c_213.gif Shuckie, lv 17 Moves: -Constrict -Withdraw -Wrap -Encore Who volunteered to become my Berry Juice/Rare Candy Slave. I'm afraid to say that you won't be seeing me anymore for a while now; I'm going to be focusing on my Bug Monotype Challenge, since it's been a while since I've updated on that one. |
No choice of changing the move if you want. I'd see that as tough because the move could have no PP at all.
|
Quote:
If you simply mean that it's going to be hard because if the PP of Spark has been drained and you are forced to use Shock Wave 20 times, then yes. |
this is stupid. Every single person will be stuck with the pokes first attack. Which is usually tackle, scratch or something. HOW ARE U MEANT TO WIN ANYTHING
|
Bait and switch grinding. Get one Pokemon with Tackle/Scratch/etc, then use it to bait and switch grind your other Pokemon to levels where they get better moves. And it's not that hard to beat. I've used only 40 power moves (one of them not even getting STAB), and I'm doing fine so far.
Also, I continued: Spoiler:
Spoiler:
Also, I hate spoiler splitting. It can go to hell as well. More update. Also final one. Spoiler:
Spoiler:
As I already stated above, spoiler splitting can go to hell. And Surge too. |

I think I even remember that you had your own challenge, so please go to your own challenge thread and stop calling this one stupid. |
