The Dual Type Challenge Thread
Hello, all, and welcome to the Dual Type Challenge! I'm sure most of you have come here to find out why this thread was made, when there is already a Monotype Challenge. Well, I'll tell you! This challenge is a slight variation on the Monotype Challenge. Basically, you pick 2 types. You can only use pokemon that are either of those types, or both. No other types. Say I pick Grass and Dark. If I was doing Ruby, I would pick Shiftry, Cacturne, Bellossom, and Mightyena. However, I can't use Breloom or Sharpedo, as those are also Fighting and Water types, respectively. Due to the eventual limited selection of pokemon, I will allow hacking or trading in pokemon that you can't find in the game. If it can be found in the game, though, catch it yourself. Rules
Challengers 649 - Red - Bug/Poison Saiddun Uzkha - LeafGreen - Water/Fighting Toasty Woodman - Emerald - Ground/Water Antic.x.Fantasia - Ultimate (KJHS) - Water/Ground Suicune™ - Emerald - Electric/Steel KnightKGR - Emerald - Fire/Fighting myrrhman - Ultimate (KJHS) - Water/Psychic Champions jdthebud - Silver - Fire/Dark Porygon Z - Blue - Poison/Ground Userbar http://usera.ImageCave.com/tmewett5/Userbars/TypeChallenge.png Thanks, Suicune™! If you have a problem with the rules, PM me with a good reason, and I will change them. Started my challenge! I will be using the Bug and Poison type, on Red. My pokemon are Beedrill, Venomoth, Pinsir, and Muk. Named myself : ) and rival : ( I thought it was pretty clever. Chose squirtle and named it KURTDATURT. (where did that name come from?) Caught and grinded Weedle, named Zing. And that's all for now! |
I think I'll try this.
Name: Saiddun Uzkha Game: Leafgreen Types: Water/Fighting So Blastoise, Machoke, Hitmonlee, Vaporeon, and Primape |
Saiddun, if you're using and emulator, use this method(The first one) to evolve Machoke if you like.
|
This sounds interesting...hmm.
Game: Silver Types: Fire, Dark Team: Typhlosion, Houndoom (Hacked to get in Johto), Magmar, Umbreon |
What about including also an Ultimate for this challenge?
If there will be any, I'll join. If not, I'll join. :D |
Alright, so I started my game on Silver. Named self Nox, rival Rich. Right now I have 4 Badges, and am about to go down to Olivine.

Porygon-Z, Ultimates are fine, im adding it as a game. Be sure to choose your types wisely.
So yeah, im past Mt Moon, soloing Beedrill. Brock was a b****. Im considering getting Arbok, since most of my pokemon are found later on. |
I'm gonna take this on before I try monotype :P
I'm doing Ground and Water, on Pokemon Emerald. Team: Swampert Whiscash Sandslash Milotic |
Question:
It says hacking's okay to get the pokemon you want, but what's the extent of that? Like, if I were to do a dragon run, would it be okay to mod the starter to get one of them? O.O |
yup. You can hack in any way to get any pokemon, but it must be lv 5 or less at beginning, and must be otherwise untouched. Meaning no egg moves, I should add that.
|
Alright, so, if I wanted to do Fire Red, but have Umbreon....?
Sorry for all the questions. XD |
Quote:
FR/LG = hack any gen II/III pokemon into the game early, including evolutions. otherwise, choose gen I pokemon. |
I think I'll go Water/Ground.
Swampert, Vaporeon, Donphan, and Sandslash~ Emerald Version. The only one I'll have to hack in would be Eevee, sooo....guess I'll push her in somewhere along an early route and catch her. |
I think I'll try this. I'll do an Ultimate Challenge. c:
I've got a question though. As long as you continue to use the same type combo, can you switch your party with every generation? For example, I pick Electric/Flying. Say I pick Electabuzz, Pidgeot, and Fearow on my first generation game. Would I be allowed to go with a different party on my generation two game, such as using Electrode, Noctowl, and Ampharos? |
^ of course. Nobody said you had to keep the same pokemon.
So, Electric/Flying? Also, sorry for slow progress on my part, I have a lot going on. Currently Im at Vermilion City with a new member, Charm the Arbok. About to face that annoying gym. "Nope, there's only trash here." |
Quote:
Anyways, I've just been putting the updates for this on my profile page should I be putting them on here or anything? I'm headed towards gym six right now lol |
Quote:
I was really only paying attention to the rules post and working out what I'd use. Sorryyyy..... |

Don't even worry about it Antic :D I made a custom title thing that only you and I can use once we've finished the challenge xD
http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg39/kamikaze881/GAWDTCEV.png If you don't want it, don't use it, but I'm gonna use it :P I'm going to put the five updates into here, in spoiler tags, 'cause there a bit... lengthy Dx Gym 1! Spoiler:
Gym 2! Spoiler:
Gym 3! Spoiler:
Gym 4! Spoiler:
Gym 5! Spoiler:
I'm not really sure if I did enough for the updates or had the right info... let me know if you need more so I can fix that lol |
I wasn't really gonna go with Electric/Flying. I was just making a quick example. xD
I think I'll go with Ghost/Fighting. My first team for my challenge will be Gengar, Machamp, and Haunter, if it's alright with you to use two members of the same evolutionary family. Not much to choose from in the first gen. I will be using Red version. c: NOTE: No other ghost types in the first gen. besides the Gastly family, which are half-poison types as well. I hope this is alright with you. |

Didn't get a chance to play a whole lot, but I did do a few things.
-Went and got the Devon crap again. (I hate Whismur.) -Got the Pokegear. Coool. On another note, if I wanted to go Ultimate Challenge from this one, would that be kosher? And could I do FR/LG and HG/SS in place of R/B/Y and G/S/C? |

Well, since I can't read Japanese and don't have access to the rom anyway, no. I'd like to, but... In any case, I think I'll go in this order: Emerald > Leaf Green > Platinum > Heart Gold. |

Well, does that mean I should just postpone Emerald for now? |
Finished Johto. Kanto and Red are next. I had a tough time with Bruno and Lance in the Elite 4, Claire surprisingly not so much.
Some not-so-random screenshots: http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/6469/silverg.png http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/2420/brunok.png http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/3654/lancew.png - Against Bruno, Devil was the last one standing - he was barely able to take two Mach Punches from Hitmonchan. - Had to use a couple Max Revives against Lance and also got some Thunder Wave misses. Am now going to get on the SS Aqua and head to Kanto.

Edit: Finished my run through Silver with Fire/Dark! Screenshots: http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/8426/dualblue.png Kanto was a breeze, especially coupled with the speed button lol. After grinding my team to L62-63 against the Elite Four and a couple Rare Candies at the end, Red was the final fight! http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/1386/dualred.png Pyro EQ'd Pikachu, I switched Devil into Espeon's Psychic and 2 Crunches took care of Espeon. Blastiose came out and killed Devil with Surf. I brought out Lava and after a Sunny Day to weaken Surf, Thunderpunch crit to OHKO Blastoise! Snorlax came out and I switched to Kuro, who was immediately paralyzed with Body Slam. Toxic missed 3 times in a row so I had to use a Full Restore. Then Body Slam crit so I used a Hyper Potion. After I finally poisoned Snorlax, I had to use a final Full Restore to keep Kuro alive, then a heavy dose of Toxic damage + a Return put Snorlax down without a single Rest! Kuro was paralyzed, so I switched back to Lava when Red brought out Venusaur. After a Psychic failed to kill Venusaur, Lava took a Solarbeam, and the next Psychic killed Venusaur. Charizard was Red's final Pokemon, and he killed Lava, who had very little HP left, with Wing Attack. Pyro was my Pokemon of choice, and I had him use Rollout, which is 4X effective. Charizard use Fire Spin, and the second Rollout put Charizard down for good. Red was defeated!

I'll have a try at this.
Type:Fire/Fighting I'll first try at emerald. Team:Flareon,Blaziken, Hariyama, Machoke, Torkoal, Hitmonchan. Well, that's it. I hope this team is okay. Half fire, half fighting. Supposing that it's okay I'll start now. I read and didn't see anything wrong with it. So posting here now and as soon as I beat first gym I update. I defeated 1st and 2nd gym, but guess what? Save was ok, but by a mistake I loaded a state that I made right after starting. Then guess what? when I reseted game and went to loading screen the save was overwritten by the state, making me go all the way back to 0:21 play time, right after getting starter. I'll try again later. |
Sorry for the way late update, all. D:
In any case, here's what's happened. -Kicked some Team Aqua buttocks at the Aquatics Museum thing. -Massive amounts of grinding around the Slateport-Mauville area. -Got a bike! W00t! -Beat up Wally. -Went back and cleared out Cycling Road -Went even FARTHER back and kicked the living crap out of Brawly. -Changed Kipper's nickname to Tompy (I suck at nicknames, okay!?) -Watched the newly-named Tompy completely deconstruct Wattson's ENTIRE GYM. (Although that was obviously going to happen.) -Temporarily taught Tompy Rock Smash -Mizuko sweeped the Winstrates. (I seem to be on a roll.) -I. Hate. Shroomish. -Rested at that house on Route 111. ...I swear, that lady is a child molester. I'm currently on Route 113. I plan to catch my first HM slave (Skarmory) soon, then the other (Wailord. Yes, you can catch one in the wild.) later. I'll update again after I do a tad more, with stats and whatnot. |
The advertising worked!
I'm going to do a Water/Psychic run. We'll go ultimate. |
Okay, I think I will try this.
