Aipom: Can't evolve must have Sunny Day Solarbeam combo. The only normal type move it can know ever is scratch. (That means it doesn’t need to have scratch, right?)
Gyarados: Must forget/change strongest move after every gym. HM moves should only be the strongest once I can get to the Move Deleter does not apply against the Elite Four. (Does this apply in the second half of gyms also?)
Once those are clarified I will start.

For the gyarados, you only worry about the first 8 gyms. Once you get to the elite four, that's your final moveset. Don't change it in between gyms 9-16, or red.

metscolts September 28th, 2010 5:49 PM

Name: metscolts (MC in game)
Game: Diamond
6 Pokemon
No restrictions except I want to be able to fly and surf, and fully evolved.

ComiTurtle September 28th, 2010 6:51 PM

Metacolts for your first pokemon you get a Chimecho it must know Shock Wave and it can only have one psychic move and the other two must be normal type moves.

Also if you would like a second from me you can have a Bibarel that must know two HM moves and can't evolve until it KOs three gym leader pokemon. (Doesn't have to be from the same gym leader and only needs to do the finishing blow.)

Also I shall start my adventure tomorrow.

metscolts September 28th, 2010 7:02 PM

@comiturtle
Ill take the first for now and if i need one later ill take ur second. Do u still need any?

myrrhman September 28th, 2010 7:48 PM

Nope, everyone is full, metscolts... except you!!!

Take a Bronzong who must have one Psychic move, one Steel Move, and two to counter his weakness. If he has the heatproof ability, he is weak to ground, so you must have two attacks that can hit pure Ground types for super effective damage. If you have the Levitate ability, you are weak to Fire, and must have two attacks that can hit pure Fire types for super effective damage.

In other news... PROGRESS

I did a last minute switch to Yellow, because then I can get a Mankey really early in the game. Caught a Mankey and my Pikachu. Pikachu eventually learned Quick Attack over Thundershock, making him legal. Mankey grew to 15 and learned Karate Chop, which was Normal back in the days. He beat Brock with its super Critical Hit powers. I then realized how useless Pikachu is going to be... He can only learn Normal moves (except Thunderwave) and thus, he will probably just be bringing up the rear of my team, never contributing anything. I mean, right now, I have a level 20 Mankey and a level 11 Pikachu... Tsk tsk.

Misty and Lt. Surge were easy enough with Mankey, who evolved on the SS Anne. Btw, I have charmander as my cut slave for now. I'm going to ditch him when I catch a Farfetch'd, who will be cut-fly, and Lapras will be Surf (Primeape Strength).

After arriving in Celadon City, I quickly obtained a Doduo. In the shopping mart, I bought one of every drink, and saved the water for the guard, nabbing Rock Slide and Tri Attack, which went to Primeape and Doduo, respectively. Doduo only knows Peck and Tri Attack as moves of importance, and Primeape knows TBolt, Dig, Rock Slide, and Karate Chop. Doduo learned Drill Peck and Evolved in the Fighting Dojo, and then made fast work of Erika.

1/2 of game done today, time to stop for now.

metscolts September 29th, 2010 2:59 AM

My Team
- Chimecho shockwave, 1 psychic, 2 normal
- Bronzong 1 steel, 1 psychic, and 2 against his weakness( fire or ground )
- Clamperl only learn Attract, Swagger, Iron Defense, Confuse Ray, Toxic, Surf/ Waterfall
- Gengar Can only use curse above half HP.
- Skarmory 2HM, 1TM, and 1 level up move
- Qwilfish- has to know destiny bound

GoGoShinyDunsparce September 29th, 2010 4:59 AM

Metscolts - you get a Clamperl that can only know a selection of the following moves: Attract, Toxic, Swagger, Iron Defense, Confuse Ray, Waterfall/Surf.
You may evolve it if you can/want to, but it can still only learn those moves. It can't know both Surf and Waterfall at the same time.

That should be fun ^^

@ComiTurtle - Aipom doesn't have to know Scratch, no.

Zash September 29th, 2010 7:57 AM

metscolts you can have a gengar family that must use curse everytime it's higher than half hp. don't have to take it if you think this is too evil.

Also can I grind my machop outside of gyms/trainer battles without the thunder,ice,fire punch?

Just been trying to sweep through game with my team although is a little tricky. Dominated first 2 gyms. Once in goldenrod machop learned thunder,ice,fire punch, made me broke so i had to get lucky against third gym (cant think of her name). Failed twice, finally hoothoot's hypnosis lasted 5+ turns for girafarig to easily confuse it to death. Teddiursa learned attract, she is also female. Morty was a joke with the team I have, girafarig 1hko everything. Luckily as hoothoot was lvl 20 I found a wild noctowl and won so I could evovle. Nothing tough in the next gyms. 6 badges. I think red will be the only hard part of challenge. I could breed an amnesia/baton pass girafarig and let go of the one I have now to dominate but I think I'll be ok.

Level 28 Teddiursa : Cut (best STAB lol), attract, lick, faint atk
Level 29 Noctowl: Fly, Hypnosis, Reflect, Peck
Level 32 Machoke : Focus Energy (never used) Thunder Punch, Fire Punch, Ice Punch
Level 30 Girafarig : Confusion, Growl, Baton Pass, Agility (one lvl from psybeam i think)

First update! Finally:
Spoiler:

Chose Mudkip, named him Mr. Stoned, because that's what he is, EverStoned. And it suits him :>
Did all the usual questy stuff, busted through to route 103 and caught Shadows the Taillow.
Taillows are beast early in the game - Wing Attack at lv 13 should not be treated lightly. Plus, his only limitation is that he must acquire Double Team as a Swellow.
Caught the 3rd member of my party in Petalburg woods - Knockout the Shroomish. He'll be a Breloom one day, and Leech Seed will have to go.
Near the end of the day, when my party was around lv 13, I ended up catching Thunder the Skitty as well.

Team:
Spoiler:

:t258: Mr. Stoned - cannot evolve
:t300: Thunder - evolve only at lv 33
:t276: Shadows - must learn Double Team
:t285: Knockout - Mega Drain only grass move, Mach Punch only Fighting move

(Also how do you put up spoliers?)

myrrhman September 29th, 2010 7:17 PM

Scepy, take a Xatu that can only evolve after you complete the Ruins of Alph puzzle. I don't know if that's hard or not, but there you go.

Dark Sceptile - you get a Furret that must know Hyper Beam before it reaches lv 35. It cannot use it when its HP bar is green, and must use it at least once as soon as the bar becomes orange or red.
