Smogon Tier Challenge!
 
IMPORTANT NOTICE: MY NEW ACCOUNT IS Zeko! I will use that account from now on. Exception for this thread! This is the only thread I will continue to post on with this account.

Spoiler:
First off, this is all according to Smogon's Tiers.

First is easy mode: OU To see the Pokemon you can use for OU, Click Here.

Then is a bit harder, BL (Borderline) Click Here

Next is UU (Underused) Click Here

Then Hard uses these two:

To see the Never Used Pokemon (NU) Click Here.

You can also use Not Fully Evolved (NFE) Click Here.

You can not evolve your Pokemon if it evolves into a Pokemon that is not in the Tier you are in!!!

~Rules~
  1. No Trading! (Eggs are fine)
  2. No Rare Candies!
  3. HM Slaves are fine.
  4. Only hack if you cannot get your first Pokemon within the beginning of the game.
  5. Must Update AT LEAST once a month! Or you're DISQUALIFIED!!!
  6. Most Likely you will want a Pokemon in OU or UU or whatever, but the prevolved form isn't. You can do this, but you will need to evolve your Pokemon as soon as possible.


I'm challenging in Platinum with this team:

  • Lapras
  • Charizard
  • Ampharos
  • Exeggutor
  • Persian
  • Skuntank
I'll get all the Pokemon from trading in eggs. EXCEPT SKUNTANK.

Red / Blue
/ Yellow :
Gold / Silver / Crystal :
Ruby / Sapphire / Emerald : Schala_25, Domin-8
FireRed / LeafGreen :
Diamond / Pearl / Platinum : joeyijoeyi
HeartGold / SoulSilver :
Black / White :


redsaber5859 August 28th, 2010 7:14 PM

you should start a Tier challenge and have this closed... So there isn't tons of Tiers on challenges :p

I'll join later, finishing up some stuff, add me for Yellow, I'm using Pikachu which is either NFU or NU in that gen...

joeyijoeyi August 29th, 2010 12:16 PM

Oh ok I'll just edit this though...

560cool. August 29th, 2010 11:19 PM

Hey, just a little something, (I'm not participating due to lack of time), Skuntank is not available in Platinum (only in Diamond). This also applies to Murkrow and the Pearl exclusives.
That means you'll have to trade for him as well.

joeyijoeyi August 31st, 2010 10:13 PM

Oh Pokieballlz o.o

Goddarnit... Oh well then, whatever I guess...

Domin-8 September 1st, 2010 10:30 AM

I'll be doing this on RUBY after I download the ROM.
My team will be
GOLDUCK
RAPIDASH
SCYTHER
ABSOL
EXPLOUD
HITMONLEE

Will update when I start. All pokemon will be AM'ed in at low level and pre evolutions. SO Pretty much I'll catch them on the first route, then change it back after I get them. if that is fine.

joeyijoeyi September 1st, 2010 12:24 PM

Sure, no problem. Do you mean AR?

Weavile05 September 1st, 2010 5:14 PM

He's talking about Advance Map, a ROM hacking tool.

Domin-8 September 1st, 2010 6:57 PM

Yeah the ROM hacking tool.
I'm not gonna bring in high level pokes, just ones that are around the level you would find in that area. Just because I don't know if you can actually trade on roms haha.

Schala_25 September 1st, 2010 8:42 PM

I'll do it in Ruby with:
Mightyena
Tropius
Whiscash
Torkoal
Minun
Girafarig

EDIT: First Update.
Started game and chose girl. Named her Schala.
Chose Mudkip as a starter. Nicknamed it HM.
Went and beat my "rival".
Finally got my hands on some Pokeballs and after a bit of searching, found a Poochyena.
Caught her, named her Hecate.
Caught a Zigzagoon to use for HMs as well.
Leveled up Hecate some and headed towards the first gym.
After helping Wally catch a Pokemon, making it through the forest and saving a guy from Team Magma, made it to first gym.
Managed to win a tough first gym battle. Critical hits and held Oran berries are nice.
Saved Peeko and the goods from Magma.
Hecate evolved.
Headed to Dewford to deliver a letter and beat the second gym.

Elite Four: too easy.

Lorelei: Hitmonchan did all 1HKOs, only Lapras got 2HKO. Sky Uppercut FTW.
Bruno: Ice Beam worked for Onix, then Fly did the rest.
Agatha: Nightmare. Flareon did a great work, but he died against Arbok.
Electrode completes the work with his AMAZING speed.
Lance: Too easy. Electrode took Gyarados out with 1HKO Thunderbolt, then a Thunderbolt
to Aerodactyl, and... Electrode dies. Dewgong did ALL the rest.
Gary: A great battle. Dewgong took out Pidgeot, Rhydon, and Charizard, then
he died to that darn Psychic. Alakazam killed all the team except Flareon, he killed
Alakazam and Exeggutor before dying to Gyarados. Only Electrode left.
2 Thunderbolts reduced Gyarados with 2-3 HPS and Paralyzing status, then Gary
used Full Restore. Thunderbolts again, this time with more HPs.
An Hydro Pump takes Electrode nearly out, so I used a Max Potion on Electrode
and a Revive on Flareon. Then I used Explosion. I didn't want to do that, but
that was the only way to win... Anyway, I'M THE CHAMPION! :D

I've already completed the Sevii Island Quest, now I'm grinding with the remaining trainers, then I'll go to catch Mewtwo.

FINAL TEAM (look the update down there)

FINAL UPDATE

Catched Mewtwo, and after a lot of searching, Entei.
Defeated Elite Four twice.

tachikaze316 October 8th, 2010 12:15 AM

I'd like to start this on Emerald using Murkrow, Torkoal, Swalot, Sunflora, Relicanth and Volbeat.

Is it okay for me to hack for a Murkrow in place of my starter?

EDIT: Seeing as I haven't heard a no, I'm gonna take that as a yes. I'll restart if I have to.

Anyway, update #1

-Helped Wally catch his Ralts

-Caught a Nincada HM slave
-Grind to Lv.17
-Went to Rustburo Gym

Team:
Murkrow Lv.17
-Peck
-Astonish
-Pursuit

Swept through Roxanne's team with Pursuit, leveled up twice. For some reason she was happy spamming Defense Curl/Harden when a second Rock Tomb probably would've KO'd Murkrow

-Rescued Peeko, helped the Devon dude again
-Got HM01, taught cut to Slave
-Beat May
-Headed to Dewford
-Delivered the letter to Steven
-Headed to Slateport
-Caught Gulpin
-Headed back to Dewford
-Gym time

Team:
Gulpin Lv.17
-Pound
-Sludge
-Yawn
-Amnesia

Murkrow Lv.21
-Peck
-Astonish
-Pursuit

Gulpin swept through Machop and Meditite with Sludge, and yawned Makuhita before fainting, Murkrow finished it off with peck

Schala_25 October 17th, 2010 6:43 PM

Update: Beat sixth gym.
Teus evolved.
Caught a Girafarig in the Safari Zone and named her Atai.

Next I'll level up Atai a little bit and continue on.

EDIT: Well, since no one is posting...update:
