Ok, already started Blue, Ground and Poison types.

I'm arrived in Fuchsia, now training the team in Routes before the city.
Planning to get Koffing and Grimer later.

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?

Thats perfectly fine, I'll put you down as ultimate. Are you doing Unova?

Porygon Z, are you doing ultimate as well?

blue January 3rd, 2011 9:55 AM

I'd like to try this;

Game: Emerald
Types: Electric/Steel
Pokémon: Manectric, Mawile, Magneton, Raichu & Electrode

Quick question, am I allowed to hack to obtain 2 of my 5 Pokémon because I want Electrike & Magnemite at the beginning, is that okay?

No. If they're in the game, catch them in the game. You can actually get Electrike before the 2nd gym, as well as Mawile.

Also, update.

Was sick, so didn't do a whole lot.
-Managed to beat May, barely.
-went to Dewford.
-Delivered the letter to Steven.
-Cleaned house at Dewford Gym...save Brawly.
-Instead, went to Slateport to get things done and grind.

Unova is the region that B/W is based in, also known as Isshu (Jap).

Oh.
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.

Toasty Woodman January 4th, 2011 6:16 PM

Alright, haven't done an update in a while. So here is :)

My Pokemon:

Wailord: Lv. 42
Swampert: Lv. 44
Sandslash: Lv. 44
Whiscash: Lv. 43

Tate and Liza's Pokemon:

Xatu: Lv. 41
Claydol: Lv. 41
Solrock: Lv. 42
Lunatone: Lv. 42

Liza and tate: We're twins! That somehow makes it acceptable for there to be two gym leaders!
Me: But! There's only one of me!!! D:
Them: Yeah, well, double battling had to be in a gym somewhere.
Me: Word.

*Swampert and Wailord continually use waterspout and muddy water until claydol and xatu die*

Me: Ohhhh THATS why it's ok to have to gym leaders!
Them: YOU SHUT UP!!!

*Solrock takes down wailord with solarbeam*

Them: HA! Not lookin' so good now, are ya?
Me: Please, my sandslash can hadle you.

At this moment I realize that one of sandslash's moves wont hit because of levitate, two ore ineffective, and one is super effective, but so weak and useless it doesn't even matter.

Them: lulz.
Me: Uhhhh yeah, about that....

*Swampert muddy waters them into the muddy water*

Me: HA!
Them: D:

You need to go in order of region. So you should go with LG > HG > Emerald > Platinum.

Oh, crap.
Well, does that mean I should just postpone Emerald for now?

jdthebud January 4th, 2011 11:39 PM

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:

- 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.

Dropping out of this challenge for a bit.

Lol. that's just the way that I like to do it. my bad. props to 649 for being accommodating, though.

Edit: Finished my run through Silver with Fire/Dark!

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!

KnightKGR January 8th, 2011 11:36 AM

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.

Antic.x.Fantasia January 11th, 2011 6:15 PM

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.

Porygon Z January 12th, 2011 6:38 AM

Continuing from the last update, I finished the challenge.
Pokèmon League and Gary defeated, got all the legendaries.
