Arghh... I can't remember how long it's been since I signed up for this challenge, but I finally got it started.
I have 2/5 Pokemon so far. http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa164.png Noctowl-Lv22-Bold Confusion Reflect Hypnosis Peck http://www.pokemonelite2000.com/sprites/dpmfa/dpmfa391.png Monferno-Lv23-Naughty Flame Wheel Ember Mach Punch Taunt Have 2 gym badges so far, not much has happened yet. Hoothoot was a pain to train at first though. |

Number required: 4 for each game, preferably different but not required Any specific requirements: 2 HM Slaves of my choice? |
Alright, here are my late final team impressions! I'm going to go ahead and use their current levels, since I can't think of a better representation...
The Individual Profiles: Spoiler:
The Awards: Spoiler:
There you have it, folks. I had a lot of fun with this challenge. It really helped open my eyes to Pokemon I would've never used before. Thanks to Sammu for creating this, and good luck to all you challengers! |
FireWalker you want one for each game? I assume you can trade for pokemon not normally found in-game (if not just let me know, i'll change it)
Red: Omastar Hitmonlee Flareon Nidoqueen Silver Jolteon Kingdra Skarmory Tyranitar Emerald Exploud Cacturne Banette Gorebyss Diamond Honchkrow Toxicroak Leafeon Golduck Soulsilver Kabutops Yanmega Steelix Absol As for my challenge (if anyone was wondering at all) I can finally resume it at the end of this week, yay for semester break \o/ |
Good to read your impressions -Cygnus-, and I'm glad Dewgong ended up improving enough to not be considered your worst Pokemon! I also really liked your awards, which has inspired me to ask a question of the regular (or irregular) posters on this thread.
On the original post in this thread, under the rules, I'm going to put a little section of example awards for people's post-Challenge impressions roundup. So, could any of you suggest an award you'd like to see people giving to their Got Away Pokemon? Clearly awards like MVP and LVP are standard, but I was thinking of the less normal ones, like -Cygnus-'s "One Trick Pony" Award, and the like. Stick it in this thread or PM me, either works for me. |
After several attempts to restart Platinum which have all failed due to the team being boring, I'll give this challenge a try.
Name: Cathar Game: Platinum List of Pokemon that got away: Spoiler:
Number required: 5 (but you can pick 6 and I'll either eliminate one or use one as an HM Slave) Any specific requirements: One should be able to learn Surf, not more than two of the same type, otherwise go crazy ^^ I'll probably hack in the first two before the first gym and if I can't get the rest before the third, I'll hack them all in between first and third gym. Is that okay? Cheers, Peter |

@thenickel09: Take: Aggron, Nidoqueen, Starmie, Noctowl and Hariyama. That's 2 of those you really wanted and you can always take Rhydon as the sixth ^^
Does that work? And I'll be editing this post later, I'm currently hacking in my first three Pokémon |
I've added thenickel09 to the Challengers list, and I've also added the "Sample Awards" section to the front page. Please have a look at the ones I've suggested and post with some suggestions of your own!
EDIT: Also, let me know if there's any there that you think are stupid/difficult to understand, and I'll think about getting rid of them. |

ack, I'm going to start it tomorrow. I have trouble with emulators and hacking (the latter I am avoiding as much as possible thanks for giving me mostly Pokemon that can be found in Platinum.) |
Enough people posted, so I won't have to edit my previous post. I got a bit carried away yesterday because I found Pokémon Trading Card Game Online XD
I also changed game from Platinum to Diamond. My girlfriend still has an old save on Platinum that I didn't want to delete if she ever wants to play it again. This will be my first update. I decided to make this a bit of a narrative, more for me to enhance my experience, but tell me if you like it, too! Since these are more work than shorter updates, this challenge will progress a lot slower than the Monotypes I do on Emulators, but I think it's good to have something to distract you from all that "powered" gaming. I also decided to add a little more flavor to this challenge, so each of my Pokémon will be subject to one or two additional rules that fit with their character. I will change these rules whenever it fits. So here's my update: Spoiler:
A little guessing game for everyone: What are the natures and characteristics of Link and Lexie? ;) EDIT: Had a look at the awards. I like them all, mostly because they encourage challengers to tell us a bit more about their team than just levels and movesets. If I can think of another one, I'll post them ^^ |

Thanks! I'll get started right away!

Sammu I am loving the awards!!
Just an idea, as an optional rule you could have restrictions (like the Scramble challenge) as your optional rule kind of hints towards that. I have passed 20 hours gameplay and have only collected 3 badges in my Hard Gold run... |
