The Underleveled Challenge ~
The Underleveled Challenge ! ~ Hi everyone ! This is a new challenge I came up with. It is very simple actually, it only has one rule. That is... 1. No grinding. That's right, no grinding. No battling wild Pokemon, only trainers. Battle wild Pokemon if you want to catch them. Otherwise, run. Of course, the exceptions include : RSE's Poochyena/Zigzagoon, when you need to help Prof. Birch and the Starly you battle with your rival in DP. Also, if you accidentaly knock wild Pokemon out, it doesn't count. But if it happens regularly, that is bad. ): I'll think of some "punishment" on it. DO NOT LIE. Levels come naturally. It will be visible if you grind, then say you didn't. After all, you're lying to yourself. No rematching trainers. That'd be cheating. This includes the E4 or Red. Cheating : Only for two Pokemon at Lv. 2-3 on the first Route. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Participant List RBY : mondays suck (Red), GSC : Domin-8 (Silver), RSE : Hallway Kid (Ruby), FRLG : DPPt : HGSS : dragonomega (?), rew s11 (HG), Pokemon Hacks : ______________________________ Hall Of Fame : 560cool. (Brown) Porygon Z (Red) GoGoShinyDunsparce (Ruby) ______________________________ *in RBY/FRLG, the game ends when you beat Gary at the Indigo Plateau (it is optional to do the Sevii Islands in FRLG, where you'll be allowed to catch to fill in your Pokedex for the Rainbow Pass) *in GSC/HGSS, it ends when you PWN Red. Let's see you do that. Haha... *in RS, beat Steven. In E, beat Steven at the Meteor Falls. *in DPPt, simply clear Stark Mountain. __________________________________________________ I wish you good luck (mostly to GSC players...) ! |
what if im trying to catch someone ut accedetlly knock them out, thats ok right

I'll give this a try, in Pokemon Red. Picking Bulbasaur, since Charmander would be hopeless and Squirtle was probably just get poisoned by a Bug Catcher's Weedle and die. Yeah, I'm planning a starter solo for a big part of the game, later I'll get something second, and that will have to be enough. Otherwise I'll fall too much behind.
|
I knew you'd show up, modays ! :]
Well, I'm making some progress in Brown. I caught a Hitmonchan in the Patch, with my Bulba' fainting and my Doduo (slave) surviving. Now I plan to challenge Karpman. |
So far, I've already won the two probably hardest battles in this challenge for a long time, although they took some reloads.
First, the rival battle. Obviously, this is a pain, since Charmander has a superior attack in Scratch and less points in special, meaning it is physically stronger. Speaking of the rival, I just noticed I forgot to fight him west of Viridian. Damned. Then, Brock's lackey. That damned Diglett killed me so many times, it's not even funny. Always when I thought I was winning, Scratch crit. Aaaargh. Brock himself was easy, since Geodude posed no offensive thread and after beating it, Bulbasaur (which I accidentally didn't nickname yet) reached level 14 and learned Vine Whip. Currently on my way to Mt.Moon, things are being a lot easier here, with Ivysaur being only a few battles away after beating Brock. Alright, after some minor trouble with Team Rocket's Zubats in Mt.Moon, I got to Cerulean and easily beat Misty. Ivysaur is level 24 now, will that be enough for the upcoming rival battle? We shall see. |
Okay, I am ABUSING the patch with high leveled Pokemon in Merson ! :)
I got a Hitmonchan and a Pidgey so far. The others killed poor Seedy (Bulbasaur, Lv. 13). I had a hard time in Merson Cave. Got PWNd twice then remained without Vine Whip PP. And the last guy in the game has Lv. 100s ;o;. |
I'll do HGSS although my updates won't be many but I'll include everything I can...
|
Okay, you're in, but please state if you're using HG or SS.
As for my game... I reached Hayward City : Seedy :x (Ivysaur) Lv. 18 Tackle, Leech Seed, Vine Whip, PoisonPowder P.unch.eez (Hitmonchan) Lv. 20 Comet Punch, Agility. PIKACRAP (Pikachu) Lv. 18 Thundershock, Thunderwave, Quick Attack, Growl BIRD (Pidgey) Lv. 18 Gust, Quick Attack, Sand Attack Patch of grass does wonders ! :] |
Is there a rule about the vs seeker. That could easily be used to train pokemon.
|
Oops, I actually mentioned that in the CI&D, but forgot mentioning it here.
Added it now though. This also includes E4 or Red rematches, of course. |
@ susanwell : Please post which game are you playing.
And if you meant that you can rematch the Elite Four or Red, no you can't. |
I'll be doing this challenge. I think I'll do it on...... Silver
|
I would signed in last week, but I forgot :D
So, now I'm in Celadon with only one Pokèmon in team, thinking about the second and last of the team (except HM Slaves). Maybe Lapras. I have 4 Badges, defeated TR in both Celadon and Lavender for now. http://www.smogon.com/download/sprites/dp/6.png Lv. 46 Slash Flamethrower * Wing Attack * Thunder Punch * * Learned via trading in Crystal |
Aww maaan, that Cerulean rival battle is a major pain...
That damned Pidgeotto and its Sand Attack |
I will do this on heart gold
chose totodile as starter |
I'll do this on ruby. I'm usually underleveled anyway so it might not be too hard for me.
|

Can it be? An update?
So where did I stop? Right, after beating Misty but losing against Gary M. Oak. Spoiler:
And no, I'm not planning to play this as a solo run, getting a second Pokemon just will take a while. And yes, I already know what I'll take. By the way, what about legends? You can catch them a level where they easily can take on Elite 4 Pokemon. Wouldn't it make the challenge too easy? |

Great. Brown deleted itself. I PWNd the Pallet Patrol (final trainer) with this team. (remember, it froze during the credits then... it was gone) :
Venusaur Lv. 89 Hitmonchan Lv. 43 Raichu Lv. 66 Pidgeot Lv. 51 Yes, my team was left for Venusaur. Also, the final dungeon in Brown has Lv. 80 + Pokemon and also a Lv. 100 trainer. I got PWNd three times by that Pallet Patrol's Rhyperior. I hate Quakes. At least Venusaur does. Also, he had the following Pokemon : Feraligatr, Typhlosion, Meganium, Ampharos, Rhyperior. I'm thinking of doing another one. But I'm not sure which game should I pick... |
Defeated Elite Four, and catched Mewtwo... Challenge Cooomplete! :D
I'd like to take this challenge again in other games, it's the same challenge or four different challenges? :D http://www.smogon.com/download/sprites/dp/6.png Lv. 63 Fly Flamethrower Wing Attack Earthquake http://www.smogon.com/download/sprites/dp/131.png Lv. 64 Body Slam Surf Ice Beam Thunderbolt Oddish (HMs Cut & Flash) Hitmonchan (HM Strength) |
@ Porygon Z : Well, if you'd like to do it again, then feel free. It's not like the UMC or USC, you can pick any game in any order.
|
Ok, so I'll do with Silver (GBC).
I like to play games in order :D I'm using Scyther and Growlithe, both of them cheated. I'm already in Goldenrod, just defeated Whitney. Also, I traded from Crystal a Fire Stone and a Metal Coat. http://www.smogon.com/download/sprites/dp/58.png Lv. 29 Bite Roar Ember Take Down http://www.smogon.com/download/sprites/dp/212.png Lv. 30 Quick Attack False Swipe Wing Attack Metal Claw Sandslash as HM Slave Cut, Strength, Rock Smash Togetic as HM Slave Fly, Flash (traded, evolved, than traded back) Politoed as HM Slave Surf, Whirlpool, Waterfall (traded from Crystal) PPS: HM Slaves already know their HMs, thanks to Crystal. PPPS: HM Slaves are all at level 25, just to hang on if Growlithe or Scizor dies. PPPPS: Nothing important :D |
Mini Update:
(aka a section where I played quite a bit but not much happened) Spoiler:
And a bigger one: Spoiler:

- beat lt surge,erika,sabrina,misty,janini
- caught snorlax team: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/e/ef/Spr_4h_130_m_s.pngLv 48* dragons dance,ice fang,aqua tail,return http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/1/1e/Spr_4h_212_m.png Lv 48* wing attack,x-scizor,bullet punch,iron defence http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/a/ae/Spr_4h_181.pngLv 48* signal beam,discharge,charge beam,focus blast http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/05/Spr_4h_059.pngLv 48* flamethrower,extremespeed,fire fang,return http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/02/Spr_4h_143.pngLv 50 crunch,giga impact and some stuff |
Oh, I just wanted to add some details about cheating.
Cheat only for Pokemon on the 1st Route, at Lv. 2 or 3. 1 if it is Scyther/Heracross/(or something that evolves to a pseudo). You are allowed to cheat for maximally two Pokemon. This can actually solve you. If you cheated, you'll have a "*" in your Hall of Fame record. |
Legend speaks of a beast
Three hundred miles from it's head to its bottom None have seen it yet all know it's name Like the Ball of the Master or the holy Arceus We set out on a quest In search of the bridge, where the creature doth dwell On a ransom to bring back it's head Our journey would take us to Route 12 His eyes shine not at all because its tired His mouth is as an endless pit Snorlax Resting in the way Leading us all to the grave...well, he tried Snorlax Slaying all foes Except Venusaur ...and Haunter. Yeah, that sucked, I'm not really good at rewriting song lyrics. At all. Anyways, as you can probably guess, I caught Snorlax, and it even took me just one Great Ball. What else did I do? Not much. I finished Pokemon Tower with mainly Haunter who is now level 37 and that's pretty much it. Now, here's my question: How should I let Snorlax's moveset look like? Body Slam, EQ, Amnesia, Ice Beam and Surf would be amazing, but unfortunately that are 5 moves. Which ones should I pick? --- After a blind, short, violent and moonrune-heavy BW Nuzlocke attempt I didn't post about, I got back to my other challenges again. Spoiler:

This sounds like a really awesome challenge, and I'd like to do it on Ruby. Not right now, but soon enough, aright?
Gunna take Torchic. Started it! Maybe I can breathe some life back into this thread :/. Update: Spoiler:

Final update: Spoiler:
I am a CHAMPION of this challenge ^^ Please, if anyone's still modding this - I'd appreciate my name on the list, because I'm very proud of this run : ) |
Sounds like fun, and makes it more challenging, nice idea! :).

Well...this is how I normally play my games up until the strongest trainer (Blue 2nd round / Red / Steven / Barry), so...sign me up!
Player Name: Amore. Game Played: HeartGold. Progress: Well, I've just downloaded my Mew, so I'm in Cherrygrove City, and it's looking like I'll end up with this at the moment: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/09/Spr_4h_157.png Blaze Quirky Sunny Day Solarbeam Focus Blast Eruption http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/0/06/Spr_4h_162.png Furr Gentle Sucker Punch Dig Return U-Turn I've decided not to plan my team, just catch pokemon and raise them if I feel like it...I think it'll be more fun that way (and if I start ditching them for new ones, the Elite Four should be interesting....) Nevermind, I failed, I got stuck into a 5 minute battle between my Zubat and a Rattata...luckily, Supersonic saved me...so, yeah, I failed. |
