Here's the post about Ruby.
  • Picked the male character, and soloed with Treecko until I reached Dewford. In Granite Cave, I caught a Mawile that I named Cruncher.
  • Avoided Brawly's gym since Mawile's weak to Fighting. Instead, I went onwards to defeat other gyms. After battling Flannery, I went to the desert and caught a Baltoy that I named Zero.
  • Zero wasn't that useful in the beginning, so I just gave it the Exp. Share and let Cruncher do all the work until Zero evolved.
  • After easily beating Norman and Winona, I caught the final member of my team, Spooks the Duskull. She was just like Zero, not that useful until she evolved.
  • With all of Hoenn's gyms down, I traversed onto Victory Road and the Pokémon League.
  • The Pokémon League was honestly harder than I expected, but my team pulled it all the way through, and I became the champion of Hoenn!

Update for Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Gray).
 
Time to continue my gray monocolor ultimate on to the Sinnoh region.

Update #1 on Pearl.

Name: Gray
Starter: Turtwig
Rival: Barry
  • Chose Turtwig for HM slave purposes, and caught my first Pokemon, Muscle the Machop, above Oreburgh City.
  • Roark was easy thanks to Low Kick and Karate Chop.
  • Moved on to Florama Town, and after a couple misses with the Honey trees, I finally got Sandy the Burmy to show up.
  • Beat Mars in the Valley Windworks and continued north to Eterna Forest.
  • Went through the forest with Cheryl, training Sandy up.
  • Arrived in Eterna City, and after beating the trainers to the east, Sandy evolved into Wormadam!
  • Took on Gardenia, who was fairy difficult, but Sandy pulled it out in the end thanks to Hidden Power Fire.
  • Got the Explorer Kit, and after a ton of mining, I dug up a Heat Rock (!), a Hard Stone, and finally, an Armor Fossil!
  • Beat up Team Galactic and Jupiter in the TG Eterna Building.
  • Got the Bike, and cycled down to Oreburgh City, where I revived Wally the Shieldon!
  • Explored Wayward Cave and rescued Mira, then headed to Hearthome City, where I beat Barry.
  • On my way to Solaceon Town, Muscle evolved into Machoke!
  • Explored the ruins and climbed the tower to get Strength.
  • Saved on Route 215.

During the last week, I've played through Diamond and completed it.
  • Chose Turtwig for HM and early-game purposes. I soloed with him until I reached Eterna Forest, where I caught Blackout the Murkrow.
  • Blackout was great against Gardenia, and the three gym leaders after her weren't difficult either. But Byron was challenging, since I had deleted Night Shade, thinking that it wouldn't come in handy anymore. So I was stuck with Flying- and Dark-type moves, and had to stall him with Hyper Potions.
  • After Byron, I went to catch a Sneasel, which was a bit tricky, but it eventually worked. Named it SantaClaws.
  • When Candice was taken down, I went to Team Galactic's HQ in Veilstone to raid it. When I was done and ready to go to Mt. Coronet, I realized that a boy in Eterna City will offer a Chatot for a Buizel. So I went and caught a Buizel to trade it, and I got Charap the Chatot that completed my team.
  • I took on the Galactic grunts in Mt. Coronet, and also Mars, Jupiter and Cyrus. Since my team couldn't really handle Steel-types well, I just threw my Master Ball at Dialga.
  • Volkner was not too tough, but since I had two Flying-types, SantaClaws pretty much had to do all the work.
  • The Elite Four was easy. I was a bit worried about Bertha, since all of my Pokémon were weak to Rock. I managed to pull it through though.
  • Cynthia on the other hand, was not easy. It was quite tense, like when SantaClaws barely survived a Giga Impact from Garchomp, and then took it out with an Avalanche.
  • After many Hyper Potions and Revives, Cynthia finally went down!

Username: King!
Color: Red
Game: FireRed, HeartGold, Emerald, Platinum, White
Ultimate: Yes :3 (hopefully)

Oh my god it took forever to deicde the color D: Literally like, a few hours. At first I had it narrowed down to five (Yellow, Red, Blue, Purple, Brown), then three (Yellow, Red, Brown) at which point I wrote down every Pokemone available in each color for each gen. And then that let me get rid of Yellow....so it was between Red and Brown. And finally after formulating teams for all ten situations, I made the choice xD So hopefully this all pulls through so all my hard work wasn't a waste~

Snow Phoenix April 12th, 2012 5:20 AM

I decided to start one as well :3

Alright, a bit of an update I guess....I haven't been marking anything down since usually when I play I'm nto online ._. But so far a breif summary:
~Started game, named player RED
~Chose Charmander :3 Named him King
~Beat Rival (Named Green)
~Did all the beginning stuff, training Charmander
~King evolved into a Charmeleon just in time for the battle with Brock
~Kicked Brock's but with a few Metal Claws (I think thats what the move is :P)
~Went through Mt. Moon, beat Green again, cleared Nugget Bridge
~Finally got to catch another member: Oddish :3
~Trained up Oddish until it evolved into a Gloom
~Easily beat Misty with my new Gloom 8D
~Went down, did S.S Anne, beat Green again just as easily
~Taught Charmeleon 'Dig' and then murdered Lt. Surge
~Went up and caught a Voltorb
~Trained Voltorb on all the trainers I had skipped up to Rock Tunnel
~Stumbled around Rock Tunnel til i finally came out
~Quickly cut through Lavender Town and over to Celadon where I purchased a Leaf Stone and evolved Gloom into Vileplume :3

And that's where I'm at...

Shoot, no time to put my team in right now...it's just Vileplum, Charmeleon, and Voltorb :3 I'll do a proper team update next time~

Chevitile April 15th, 2012 9:16 AM

I've continued my Ultimate Black Challenge on Black, and made it pretty far into the main game.

> Picked Snivy as my starter, whom I used to defeat the first gym. After that, I caught a Blitzle that I named Zepari.
> Zepari couldn't handle Lenora well, so I trained it up to the level where it evolved. With my newly-evolved Pokémon, I managed to beat Lenora.
> After Burgh was defeated, I caught my second team member, Sigilyph. I named it Gephalia.
> I thought Elesa was going to be trouble for me, but with Zepari's ability Motor Drive and its move Flame Charge, it worked out very well. Clay did give me some trouble though, mainly with critical hits.
> When Clay was defeated, I went to the Chargestone Cave. When I got out, I went to the Celestial Tower to catch a Litwick. When I did, I named it Flamare.
> Saved on Route 7.

Randomly selected a challenge, it was Brown color on Johto. Herewego.

Chevitile April 29th, 2012 2:41 AM

Finally, I've completed Black!

► I continued my journey through Unova, without anything major happening. I battled Gym Leaders, rivals, the Elite Four, N and Ghetsis. Flamare evolved along the way.
► I started the postgame by catching my final team member, Seviper. I named it Veenak.
► After that, I tried battling the postgame trainers, but they were too tough for me since my Pokémon only were around Lv 53. So I trained my team up to Lv 60, and then 65 because I still had a bit of trouble.
► When the postgame was over, my Pokémon were Lv 70. Then I used my Rare Candies to get them up a few extra levels before challenging the Pokémon League again.
► After selling and buying stuff, it was time to face the Elite Four and Champion. The Elite Four wasn't really hard, but Alder did give me some trouble, mainly with Volcarona. It required a team effort to pull it all the way through to the end.

Platinum Mono-Color Brown Run Update #1
 
Here's my first update!

-Named myself Brown, started off right away with Umber the Chimchar (I’m reminded of how clever I am every time I see “Umber used Ember!”)
-Did all the starting stuff and then proceeded to catch the second member of the team, Wallace the Bidoof, on Route 204. Also caught another Bidoof named Edgar and a Starly named Airbus for later HM slave duty (do I get extra points if my HM slaves are brown as well?)
-Beat Barry on Route 203, Got to Oreburgh, Went north to route 207 and caught myself a Machop. Traded her in town for my third team member, Kazza the Abra. Taught it Return so it had something other than just Teleport.
-Went to Oreburgh Mine and after some dumb complications (burn hax, unwanted crits, accidentally running away) I finally caught the fourth member of the team (did I make this too easy?), Jordan the female Geodude. I gave her a gender neutral name because I feel like a female GeoDUDE would be a bit confused.
-Umber evolved into Monferno at Lv.14! Learned Mach Punch.
-Was Mach Punching Roark to death until a Headbutt from Cranidos I was not prepared for took out Umber, so Jordan had to come in to take it out at a snail’s pace. Got the badge, taught Stealth Rock to Jordan as a reward for saving the day.

Platinum Mono-Color Brown Run Update #2
 
Update #2 : D

-Beat up Team Galactic in Jubilife and then at the Valley Windworks.
-Grinded Wallace to Lv. 15 so he’d evolve into Bibarel and maybe start sucking less.
-Everybody got a bunch of levels in Eterna Forest, including Kazza who, despite ignoring me half the time, got to Lv. 16 and evolved into a Kadabra, learning Confusion (yay). (Forgot to take a screen right away : S)
-Umber single-handedly destroyed the Eternia Gym. Taught Grass Knot to Kazza, who will start listening now :)
-Struggled a bit with Jupiter at Team Galactic HG, but got the job done (why can Zubat learn Giga Drain anyway?)
-Jordan threw a bunch of rocks at birds on Cycling Road
-Went back to Oreburgh Gate, went over some bike ramps and got the TM for Brick Break. Taught it to Umber. Also caught Herman the Psyduck for Flashing purposes (let’s hope he doesn’t get arrested for sexual harassment)
-Everybody got a bunch of levels exploring Wayward Cave, including Jordan who evolved into a Graveler at Lv. 25!
-Explored the secret part of Waward Cave, went over more bike ramps, and got the TM for Earthquake to make my life easier down the road

Kanto completed!

► I picked Charmander for HM purposes. I soloed with him until I reached Mt. Moon, where
I caught a Clefairy that I named Lollipop.
► Lollipop got through most of Kanto, but I caught GummyBear the Slowpoke to help her out.
► Lollipop and GummyBear were a great combination, and totally dominated Kanto. I did
add something to my team very late though, a Porygon, since I've never
used one before, and don't think I will (in first gen at least). Named it JellyBean.
► JellyBean didn't really come in handy that much, since I decided that I
wanted to use it when I was at Cinnabar. It was OK, but I couldn't get the
best out of it since all the good TMs it could learn had already been used on Lollipop or GummyBear.
► Nontheless, I beat the rest of Kanto, and became the Champion!

Best music ever, btw.

I was too lazy to train like I usually do, and as a result I only got 4 of the Rare Candies and my Pokemon were around 50 instead of the usual 60. Also I was lazy in the video, so you get to hear the same song twice.

Update for Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Gray).
 
Congrats Chevitile on becoming the third Ultimate champion!

Here's my next update.

Update #2 on White.
  • Crossed the bridge to Driftveil City.
  • While fighting in the Cold Storage, Zorro evolved into Zoroark and Skye evolved into Unfezant!
  • Cleared Team Plasma outta there, then took on the gym.
  • Clay wasn't too difficult, Cashmere was able to beat him with Wake-up Slap and Tail Slap.
  • Continued on to Chargestone Cave, picking up a Shiny Stone on the way, and Cashmere evolved into Cinccino!
  • Got through the cave to Mistralton City, met the other professor, and climbed Celestial Tower.
  • Challenged the gym, and Skyla was handled by Cashmere's Rock Blast.
  • Beat Cheren and got Surf, then went through Twist Mountain.
  • Popped into Icirrus City, then explored the Mistralton and Wellspring caves with Surf.
  • Back in Icirrus City, I took on the gym and won easily with Zorro and Cashmere.
  • Beat up Team Plasma in the Dragonspiral Tower and Relic Castle, and got the Dark Stone.
  • Made my way to Opelucid City, where I took on the gym. Iris was beaten easily by Zolata's Strength.
  • Then I maxed out everyone's EVs, and continued on to Victory Road, beating Cheren along the way.
  • Victory Road wasn't very hard to get through, and I found myself at the Pokemon League.
  • After a little moveset editing, I took them on.
  • Shauntal was soloed by Zorro's Shadow Ball and Night Slash.
  • Caitlin was beaten by Zolata's Crunch and Zorro's Shadow Ball.
  • Grimsley was a team effort, with Cashmere doing the most work.

Chevitile May 2nd, 2012 8:12 AM

Thank you! Also, I'm wondering if I can change from HeartGold to Gold?
I'm having some ROM problems, and I don't want to restart my actual game...which means I'm pretty much stuck with G/S/C when it comes to the Johto sections.

myrrhman May 2nd, 2012 11:54 AM

Guys, I'm going to do it. I haven't EVER beaten Black or White, but I just saw that I've got 4/5 of the games down. So I'm actually going to finish my Brown Challenge.

Chevitile May 4th, 2012 10:32 AM

Well, no one answered my question, but I'm just going to assume it's OK, since they're both Johto games anyway.

► I caught a Mareep (named Popcorn) to do the early game until I could get a Jigglypuff. I thought Jigglypuff was first accessible below
Goldenrod, but that's only in Crystal. So I backtracked to Route 46 to catch one, since that's where they're first accessible in G/S. When I
got one, I named it BubbleGum.
► BubbleGum and Popcorn got joined by Milkshake the Miltank and Cake the Corsola later on. At this point, I stopped using Popcorn, since
Ampharos isn't pink and Flaaffy wouldn't be that useful in the game anymore. It did serve well as an HM Slave, though.
With Cake and Milkshake, my team was complete, and I got through both Johto and Kanto quite easily. I did have to use a lot of potions
and revives for the Pokémon League and Red though.



Maybe a bit lacking in details, but oh well...

Platinum Mono-Color Brown Run Update #3 and #4
 
Update #3 and #4 (sorry for the lull in updates, moved into a new place and was getting settled in. Then again, I seem to update more than other people, so I don't know :/)

Notes on Update #3
Spoiler:
-Fantina was a stressful ordeal involving a poopton of revives, super potions, and an X Special Defense. Mismagius pretty much walled my entire team with type advantages.
-Beat up Barry with no issue
- Started feeling like I was getting a bit overleveled, started avoiding trainer battles and grass as much as I could
-Evolved Kazza into Alakazam once I got to Veilstone to help with the upcoming gym.
-The Maylene fight was made slightly more difficult by the fact that Kazza had stopped listening as he was Lv. 32 at this point, but Umber stepped in to help save the day. (We shouldn’t have a similar problem for a while, with Kazza listening up to Lv. 50 now


Notes on Update #4
Spoiler:
-Searched for what seemed like forever in the Ruin Maniac’s Cave for the fifth and final member of our team, Brienne the Hippopotas! Taught her Earthquake because Jordan learns it naturally the earliest (in a few levels in fact)
-Brienne was pretty much caught up with the rest of the team once we got to Pastoria, where we proceeded to beat up Barry again
-Looked at the levels of Crasher Wake’s pokemon, started regretting thinking I was overleveled, proceeded west to train more on routes and in the Mansion thingy
-Taught Wallace Shock Wave for the sole purpose of beating up the Pastoria Gym (we’ll be replacing the move relatively soon). Beat up Crasher Wake with Wallace and Kazza (w/ a Grass Knot for Quagsire)(Forgot to take a screen for this :S)
-Chased and beat the bloody snot out of the British knob from Team Galactic
-Sprayed some ducks
-The Ace Trainers on route 210 are jerks.
-Found the TM for Shadow Ball, taught it to Kazza. Jordan learned Eartquake naturally (told you).
-Beat up Cyrus, got Surf, taught it to Wallace. Surfed behind Valley Windworks, got the TM for Thunderbolt, taught it to Wallace as well, replacing Shock Wave (told you that as well).
-Surfed over to Fuego Ironworks and got the TM for Flamethrower. Taught it to Umber. Also got the last couple shards I needed to be able to teach Jordan Sucker Punch at the move tutor on route 212
-Evolved Jordan into Golem to help with the upcoming Gym.

Darkstream the Lv. 28 Gengar
Drillhorn the Lv. 28 Nidoking

Final Update for Ultimate Gray Monocolor Challenge!
 
Final Update (#3) on White.
  • Time for the postgame!
  • I decided to add Aggron and Machamp to my team. However, I wanted to give them egg moves.
  • So I got a Skull Fossil in Twist Mountain and caught a Tyrogue on Route 10 (swarm).
  • I then revived Cranidos and evolved Tyrogue into Hitmonchan, then had them learn Head Smash and Ice Punch, respectively.
  • Caught a female Aron and Machop in White Forest, and some breeding time later, out hatched Ironhide the Aron with Head Smash, and Muscle the Machop with Ice Punch!
  • EV trained both Muscle and Ironhide, then traveled around eastern Unova, training my team up to face the Elite Four again.
  • Along the way, Muscle and Ironhide evolved all the way to Machamp and Aggron!
  • Eventually I challenged Morimoto and Cynthia and beat them, although Cynthia took a few tries (Garchomp...).
  • After getting everyone to L73, I decided that was good enough and we took on the Elite Four once more.
  • Shauntal was beaten by Skye, Ironhide, and Zolata
  • Caitlin was easily soloed by Zorro.
  • Grimsley wastaken out by Cashmere, Muscle, and Ironhide.
  • Marshall was tough but I beat him with Muscle, Cashmere, Skye, and Ironhide finished it.
  • Finally it was time to face Alder. Here's the video and play-by-play of the final battle.

Platinum Mono-Color Brown Run Final Update
 
FINAL UPDATE :D

-Got the TM for Rock Slide from Mt. Coronet, Taught it to Jordan.
-Beat up Team Galactic at the place, released the legendaries.
-I. Hate. Going. Through. Caves.
-Beat up the same old bad guys, then went through the Tedious Multi-Dimensional Maze Puzzle Thing of Doom
-Killed Girantina because why not.
-Brienne single-handedly diestroyed Volkner (I know it’s a typo but it works haha)
-Got through Victory Road with little to no issue. Found the TM for Stone Edge somewhere along the road (/rimshot), taught it to Umber.
-Decided it would be more beneficial for me to have Light Screen on Kazza rather than Reflect. Flew to Veilstone to buy the TM and teach it to him.
-Spent as much of my money as I could, because everyone’s probably a bit underleveled, and I don’t feel like grinding, so the league might take a few tries
-Oh right, Barry. He was actually tough this time around. That Staraptor is ridiculously annoying
-After 4 “warm-up” runs we finally did it! It wasn’t the most graceful of victories, as in a lot of items were used on Cynthia, but as much fun as this whole run was I wanted to get it done with.
- I didn’t pay attention to who won each battle for me, but Kazza was definitely the MVP (as you can probably see from his level compared to everyone else). Brienne was a close second, taking physical hits for days, and an honorable mention goes out to Jordan for being the designated revenge killer with Sucker Punch.

LeafGreen Monocolor Brown Challenge Update #1 and #2
 
Uh-oh, our teams are gonna end up pretty similar. I'm not copying you, I promise :P. (Not like our teams can be that radically different anyways, the choices are pretty limited)

First Update for Leaf Green:
Spoiler:
-Named myself Brown. Started with Cooper the Squitle for HM use and to make my rival battles easier down the road.
- Did the starting nonsense, went to Route 22 with my pokeballs and caught the first two members of our team, Snowball the Mankey and Arya the Spearow! Snowball isn’t going to be on the final team, but he’ll be with us for a big chunk of the journey.
-Trained them up a bit and took out Gary on the same route
- Arya stuck a bunch of bugs with the pointy end in Viridian Forest
-Trained up Snowball until he learned Karate Chop, then demolished Brock (thought I took a screen of this, apparently not)
-Snowball chopped his way through Mt Moon, where we picked up the Dome Fossil near the end (hinthintnudgenudge)
-Beat up Gary and the rest of the Nugget Bridge.
-Caught the next member of our team, Horace the Abra, in the grass beside Nugget Bridge. Taught him the Thief TM
-Babysat Horace along route 25 until he evolved into Kadabra at Lv. 16. Taught Arya the TMs for Attract and Secret Power
-Horace and Snowball took out Misty together
-Traded an extra Spearow I caught way back for a Farfetch’d in Vermillion for HM purposes
-Everyone put on their nautical-themed pashmina afghans and went on the SS Anne to beat up Gary again and get Cut
-Horace melted Lt. Surge’s face. Taught him Shock Wave for a job well done.


Update #2:
Spoiler:

-I'm really forgetful when it comes to screens this time around it seems like, so I'm not going to do them for the most part.
-Held off evolving Arya into Fearow until Lv.25 so she could learn Aerial Ace, which she wouldn’t if she evolved sooner (I always found it dumb that you had to do this).
-Caught a Voltorb (that I forgot to nickname) to tech Flash to get through Rock Tunnel. Snowball evolved into a Primeape at Lv.28 while doing just that.
-Avoided trainers on the way to Celadon deal with soon with a new member of the team
-Arya and Horace took out Erika without even breaking a sweat
-Wait…I’m in Celadon, which means I can get the Tea from that old lady. Which means that…well jeez
-Took a short field trip to Saffron to take on the Fighting Dojo way sooner than I thought I could to get the member of the team that Snowball was subbing in for, Eddard the Hitmonchan!
-Eddard single-handedly took out Team Rocket in the Game Corner, catching up to the rest of the team
-Went up Pokemon Tower where we caught the next member of the team, Rorschach the Cubone! Taught him the Aerial Ace TM.
-Went back to the trainers on route 8 to take them out with Rorschach. He proceeded to evolve into Marowak at Lv. 28 on Cycling Road
-Took out all of Silph Co. for the easy XP (all of these things I didn’t know you could do this early!)
-Horace and Rorschach kicked Koga’s ninja bum. Taught Rorschach Toxic because why not.
-Did the whole Safari Zone thing, taught Cooper both Surf and Strength
-Surfed carefully south from Pallet Town, avoiding trainers. Revived the last member of our team in Cinnibar, Syrio the Kabuto! Taught him Surf right away.
-Babysat Syrio through the trainers we skipped and through the Saffron Gym, which Horace dominated.
-Taught Syrio Rock Slide in Rock Tunnel, then bought 4000 coins to buy the TM for Ice Beam to teach him.
-Trained him up to par with the rest of the team on all the trainers I skipped (basically all of the ones on the east side of the map)
-Evolved Horace into an Alakazam using VBA Link.

Been a while since I posted, due to laziness and so on

► Started Emerald, and soloed with Treecko until I could find Whismur, who got through
more than half of Hoenn for me. I named it Caramel.
► Wattson can go away. Somewhere dark. Joined by Brawly.
► After beating the normal man, I got my second team member, HoneyPuff the Jigglypuff.
► HoneyPuff and Caramel did all the work until I could Dive. When that happened, I caught
my third and final team member, Ice Cream the Clamperl.
► I evolved it into Gorebyss right away, since Clamperl doesn't learn anything by levelling up. (And I have to say, Gorebyss is amazing)
► The rest of Hoenn wasn't difficult. I didn't use Caramel that much, because it didn't
have that great stats. But it wasn't lacking in levels compared to the other two, since
it did clear out more than half of Hoenn.
► The Elite Four was sorta meh. I almost managed to pull a Rollout sweep on Glacia, but no.
► Wallace wasn't difficult, some Thunderbolts and Body Slams here and there and it was over.

  • Bugsy was not hard at all with Hyper Fang.

FireRed Mono-Color Brown Run Final Update
 
FINAL UPDATE

First up, some apologies:
-Sorry for the gap in updates
-I actually lost most of my notes for this update :( so this is just gonna be the E4 update
-I accidentally left my Lv.10 Farfetch'd in my party and ended up using him to heal on Agatha. I hope this is alright and doesn't make this invalid :/ (At least he's brown)

-Grinded up everyone to at least lv. 50 and then went to the E4
-Eddard and Horace took care of Lorelei with relative ease. Eddard's Detect came in useful when Cloyster would Dive
-Syrio and Horace 5-shotted Bruno without taking a single hit
-Agatha was tough and a complete group effort. Arya deserves special mention for avoidance of Ghost moves and a surprisingly powerful Drill Peck.
-Lance was another group effort, with Syrio pulling ahead as being a bit more useful than the rest with Metal Sound and Ice Beam.
-Gary was the most group effort-iest of them all by nature, but was still pretty easy

Update for Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Brown).
 
Update #2 on SoulSilver.
  • Moved on to Olivine City and climbed the Lighthouse to get the quest from Jasmine.
  • Surfed to Cianwood City, where I beat Eusine easily, and Chuck with difficulty, mostly with Breaker.
  • Got Fly and taught it to Kenya the Spearow (from the guy in Goldenrod).
  • Healed Amphy and took on Jasmine. Maximus was the star here, although it did take a crit Surf to beat Steelix.
  • The Safari Zone was now open, so I went there to catch my next team member, Ranger the Kangaskhan.
  • Taught her Strength and regulated Ratti to HM Slave status.
  • Made my way to Mahogany Town and went up to Lake of Rage.
  • Killed the Red Gyarados with Petro then talked to Lance about Team Rocket.
  • Infiltrated the hideout and laid waste to the fake wannabe ninjas there, then defeated Pryce pretty easily.
  • Got the call from Elm about the Radio Tower, so I headed back to Goldenrod.
  • Tried to sneak in the Radio Tower but Silver screwed it up. I then proceeded to beat up everyone there and in the Basement, too.
  • Finally got rid of Team Rocket once and for all.
  • Went through the Ice Path to Blackthorn City, and caught Griz the Teddiursa on Route 45.
  • After beating all the trainers on the Mountain Road, I took on the gym.
  • Clair was tough but Ranger was able to finish her off.
  • Got the Rising Badge in Dragon's Den, then found out that Kimono Girls thought I was hot stuff.
  • First though, I went deep into Mount Mortar, where I found the Karate King, defeated him, and was given Lionel the Tyrogue.
  • During my hike, Griz evolved into Ursaring!
  • Trained up Lionel to L20, when he evolved into Hitmonlee!
  • After some more grinding, I took on the Kimono Girls and barely defeated them.
  • Surfed to the Whirl Islands, and after fully exploring them, found Lugia and defeated it.
  • Finally I could get to Victory Road, so I surfed from New Bark Town and manuvered my way there.
  • Maximus evolved into Dragonair at L45 after learning Dragon Dance, and I defeated Silver at the exit.
  • After reaching Indigo Plateau, I put my head down and started grinding the rest of my team.
  • I am just about to take on the Elite Four.

Chevitile May 19th, 2012 3:02 AM

Started Platinum.

► Turtwig was the chosen one, so I used him until I got to Floaroma, where I caught Peach the Cherubi.
► Peach took care of all trainers (including Gardenia and Fantina) until I reached Route 209, where Pudding the Chansey was caught. Peach had turned into a Cherrim by this point.
► And on Route 215, I caught Lemonade the Lickitung.
► I trained Pudding and Lemonade on Routes, avoiding Maylene and Crasher Wake. During this time, Lemonade evolved into Lickilicky!
► After some training, I took on Maylene and won.
► Then I headed to Pastoria, where my rival challenged me. When the battle was over, Pudding evolved!
► I challenged Crasher Wake, who wasn't hard to beat.
► Just beat the Galactic Grunt and got the SecretPotion from Cynthia. About to head to Celestic Town.

Update for Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Brown).
 
Update #3 on SoulSilver.
  • After valiantly fighting our way to Lance, I realized we were too underleveled to ever defeat him.
  • EV trained and grinded everyone some more to L46-47.
  • Also stole a SilverPowder from a Butterfree in the Bug-Catching Contest for Breaker to hold.
  • Back at the Pokemon League, none of the Elite Four were too hard this time:
  • Will was defeated by Petro and Breaker.
  • Koga was soloed by Petro.
  • Bruno was soloed by Lionel.
  • Karen was beaten by Breaker and Maximus.
  • Then it was time for Lance, who was very difficult to beat. Here's the video and play-by-play of the battle.

SoulSilver Monocolor Brown Challenge Update #1
 
SoulSilver Update #1 : D

Name: Brown
Starter: Ferris the Totodile
Rival: Rickard

-After the beginning hubabaloo, caught the first real member of the team, Tucker the Hoothoot! Caught another Hoothoot named Knightbus for future HM use
-Caught the second member of the team in the Dark Cave, Roy the Geodude (he’s Jordan’s cousin)
-Trained up in Sprout Tower, and then Roy proceeded to kick Falkner’s annoying Roosting bum.
-Went through That One Cave, saved the Slowpokes in The Other Cave, then Tucker and Roy took turns busting down Bugsy (forgot screenshot)
-My rival’s Bayleef can go die in a hole
-Tucker evolved into Noctowl just before arriving in Goldenrod
-Got to Goldenrod and after 3 ½ HOURS of Voltorb Flip had the coins to purchase the third member of our team, Dany the Dratini and the TM for Thunderbolt to teach her (took a bunch of screens to try my best to prove I didn’t just cheat her or the move in)
-Dany and Tucker teamed up and took on Whitney together (Dragon Rage is so OP at this stage of the game)

Well wonderful. I updated my Windows the other day to come back and find 90% of my desktop changed. Wonderful. Running some recovery programs right now. All my new roms are gone. Dammit I wanted to keep going with this. I don't want to start over, I was grinding for the elite four. If the recovery doesn't find it then I have no other choice right? Ugh oh well.

jdthebud May 23rd, 2012 1:56 PM

ANNOUNCEMENT!
 
Sorry about that Tman, hope you find it and are able to continue.

SOOO.. I have some big news. If youv'e been following along in the CI&D sticky, some of us have been talking about the fact that legendaries are almost always banned from challenges. Anyway, you can look in the sticky for the discussion, but I have decided to allow legendaries to be used here in the mono-color challenge!

Caveats are as follows:
  • You can only use legendaries that have a BST of under 600.
  • You can only have one on your team.
  • You cannot use it until you have 7 badges.
  • Of course, the color has to match, and it can only be the Pokedex color, even if it's shiny.

The list of obtainable legendaries:
  • Kanto: Legendary Birds
  • Johto: Legendary Beasts
  • Hoenn: Legendary Golems
  • Sinnoh: Lake Guardians
  • Unova: Legendary Musketeers, as well as Thundurus and Tornadus.

There are some other ones that qualify, but they are event only. I am only allowing the ones found normally in the games right now.


In other news, I am in Kanto in my Brown mono on SS. I've beaten Surge and Brock and evolved Maximus into Dragonite. the rest of my team is around L50-51. My computer is on the fritz right now and it's not playing the emulator very well, so my next update won't be for a while.

Take heart, challengers! use legendaries without fear!

For example, HuggerMugger, you could use Entei if you wished.

Halfcadence May 23rd, 2012 6:25 PM

That makes sense, but I don't think it's something I'm gonna take advantage of atm. I feel like Dragonite is going to make this pretty easy as it stands already.

the problem for me was that Dragonite evolves so late in the game. You do what you want though.

Also, I lied a bit. It seems that I was able to make some solid progress on my Brown monocolor. :)


Update #4 on SoulSilver.
  • After arriving at home, I got the S.S. Ticket, and headed to Kanto.
  • Beat all the trainers and found the old guy's granddaughter.
  • Beat Surge rather easily with Breaker.
  • Next I caught a Venonat with Compoundeyes ability, then headed down to Route 15 outside Fushia City.
  • Cuaght a couple Chansey, and one of em had a Lucky Egg.
  • Used it to explore Kanto, training up my team as I did.
  • Started with Maximus, evolving him into Dragonite!
  • Beat the rest of the Kanto gym leaders in order:
  • Brock was almost soled by Lionel (Hi Jump Kick), but Petro had to kill Kabutops with Wood Hammer.
  • Misty was also almost soloed by Lionel (Meditate + Hi Jump Kick), but Petro finished off Starmie with Sucker Punch.
  • Erika was soloed by Lionel's Blaze Kick.
  • Janine was soled by Maximus' Dragon Claw and Fly attacks.
  • Sabrina was soloed by Breaker and his X-Scissor.
  • Blaine was dominated by Petro's Rock Slide.
  • Now I'm gonna train against the Elite Four before battling Blue.

SoulSilver Monocolor Brown Challenge Update #2
 
SoulSilver Update #2

-Caught the next member of the team, Ulfric the Pinsir (his horns make him look like a Viking), in a bug catching contest (we lost). Taught him Dig
-Killed Sudowoodo out of spite. I was going to catch him for HM use, but then he mimicked Dragon Rage and started wrecking everybody.
-Pulled the hatched Togepi out of the box to teach it Rock Smash instead
-Tucker and Roy are bros. They can take on double battles for days.
-I don’t know if you’ve ever used a Noctowl, but every time they come out in battle, they do an animation where they turn their head and look back at you with a super intense expression on their face, almost like saying “You ready? Let’s do this!” It’s very reassuring.
-Ulfirc broke the mold and dug his way to victory against the trainers leading up to Morty, and then tag teamed the man himself with Tucker. Taught Tucker the TM for Shadow Ball we were awarded.
-Beat up All The Things, including but not limited to: The Lighthouse, Eusine, Chuck (actually a more difficult battle than I expected, with Dany coing through for me in the end), the trainers leading up to the Safari Zone (during which Roy evolved into Graveler), and Jasmine (ridiculously close, came down to throwing a slave in there to Revive Dany)
-This is certainly a challenge this time around so far, that’s for sure.

SoulSilver Update #3

-Killed Red Gyarados just to get some use out of the Thunderbolt TM I spent forever to get
-Bro’d it up with Lance’s sorry hacking bum (who does he think he is with his lv. 40 Dragonite?) to beat up Team Rocket again, during which Dany evolved into Dragonair!
-Ulfric proceeded to break a bunch of bricks in Pryce’s face
-Went and grabbed the Exp Share from Mr. Pokemon to use relatively soon :)
-Apparently the Rocket uniform is too tight to be able to pedal a bike properly
-Saved the Radio Tower, during which Tucker learned his first flying special move Air Slash, and Roy learned Earthquake like the boss he is
-Went through That One Cold Cave, then went to route 45 to catch the 5th and final member of our team, Ser Jorah the Teddiursa. Taught him Shadow Claw, Taunt and Strength right away and trained him up on the route that we found him on
-Evolved Roy into Golem for the fun of it
-Trained Ser Jorah up to Lv. 34 on trainer rematches, during which of course he evolved into an Ursaring. Taught him Avalanche
-Ser Jorah and Dany cleared the way to Clair, which in itself was a team effort which was made relatively easy to some lucky para-hax and some Hydro Pump misses

Final Update (#4) on SoulSilver.
  • Before training against the Elite Four, I battled Silver for the last time and won easily.
  • Beat the Elite Four a few times, then challenged Blue and won with a team effort.
  • Took on the Elite Four with their upgraded teams. Lance was a pain to fight but I won thanks to some lucky crits.
  • After some more training and using Rare Candies to get everyone to L72, I climbed Mt. Silver, where Red was waiting.
  • Here's the video and play-by-play of the fight:

Chevitile June 3rd, 2012 3:07 AM

Been a while since I posted, but here we go:

♦ Made my way to Celestic Town and beat up Cyrus. Got Surf, and started doing some sidequests.
♦ After that was done, I went to Canalave where my rival challenged me. I beat him and moved on to the Gym.
♦ Byron was hard to take down, because I didn't have anything that would be super effective against his Pokémon. I had to depend on Peach with Leech Seed and Petal Dance. Eventually, Byron was taken down.
♦ Then I started doing the lake quests, and beat up Saturn and Lake Valor. It was then time to re-visit Twinleaf, just to take down Mars at Lake Verity.
♦ After that, I went to Mt. Coronet to pick up a Feebas. No luck the first day, but they popped up on the second day, so I caught a bunch and chose a Modest one. Named it Strawberry.
♦ Bought some Poffins at the Veilstone Department Store to max Strawberry's beauty. Then I leveled it up, and it became a Milotic!
♦ The rest of Sinnoh was a piece of cake. Just before I was about to challenge the Elite Four, I got a sudden urge to use Mesprit, with the new rule and all. And since I still had the Master Ball in my possession, it didn't take long at all to get. Named it Mango.
♦ Took down the rival, the Elite Four and Cynthia!

SoulSilver Update #4

-Hung out with some nice Japanese ladies, one of which has a bugger of a Vaporeon that took hits for days
-Tucker and Roy, the bros that they are, killed Lugia because I couldn’t be bothered to care too much about it
-Caught a goddamn legit shiny Tentacool surfing east from New Bark Town. #swag
-Killed all the trainers leading up to Victory Road and our rival in The Cave itself with no issue. Taught the TM for Earthquake we found in The Cave to Ulfric.
-Went on a time-travelling world tour to visit a bunch of the Week siblings to get some hold items
-PAINSTAKINGLY, PAINFULLY grinded up everyone to around level 48 on rematches, in Victory Road, and on E4 suicide runs. No, really, it sucked a lot, that’s why I haven’t posted in a while, I just didn’t want to do it : /
-We got through the E4 in probably the least graceful fashion possible with plenty of item use, but I just wanted to get it over with. Didn’t really pay attention who was taking care of who, seemed like mostly a team effore, but I think Tucker and Ser Jorah were the main stars. Geeeeeeez, I’m only halfway through this run.

One thing I would suggest that really helped me in my Brown SS run was: I caught a venonat up on rt 24 (above cerulean city) that had the compoundeyes ability. Then I went to route 15 (east of fushia city), put the venonat first, and searched a bunch until I saw chansey (1% encounter chance). Compoundeyes raises the probability of wild pokemon having held items by 50% (venonat doesn't have to be alive either). Chansey will then have a 55% chance of holding a Lucky Egg, which gives your pokemon holding it an exp boost. I had to find 2 Chansey before I got one, but it saved on a lot of grief later on.

Now on to my real post...



I continued my Brown Ultimate Monocolor in the Hoenn region:

Update #1 on Ruby.

Name: Brown
Starter: Treeko
  • After the beginning stuff, I caught Locke the Seedot (of Nuzlocke fame).
  • He beat Roxanne easily with Bullet Seed, and right after the battle, he evolved into Nuzleaf!
  • Then I traded for Makit the Makuhita in Rustboro.
  • Saved the Goods from the Magma Grunt and got the PokeNav, then caught a ride to Dewford Town.
  • Caught Esper the Abra in Granite Cave, and after training him up he evolved into Kadabra!
  • Brawly went down easily to Esper's Confusion.
  • Got ferried to Slateport and delivered the Goods, then moved on to Mauville, beating May along the way.
  • Beat all the trainers around the city, and Makit evolved into Hariyama!
  • Wattson was pretty tough, but Esper was able to break through Magneton eventually.
  • Caught Smokey the Torkoal in the Fiery Path, then continued on through Fallarbor Town and Meteor Falls.
  • Beat Maxie on Mt. Chimney, then hopped down to Lavaridge Town.
  • Beat Flannery pretty easily with Smokey's Curse & Body Slam.
  • Saved after entering the desert.

Zigzagoon - Cut, Rock Smash


Halfcadence June 5th, 2012 12:33 PM

Yeah, that'd be nice. I might end up doing it depending on where I am after the gym leader rematches and how I feel after repeating the E4 ad nauseum. It'd be nice if you're lazy like me and don't want to actually catch the Chansey because you could teach the Venonat Theif :P

SoulSilver Update #5

-Took the quick trip on the SS Anne, then Roy and Ulfric utterly destroyed Lt. Surge
-Got to Saffron, and got Mr. Psychic to teach Tucker his namesake
-Ulfric dominated Sabrina by himself without taking a hit, the beast that he is.
-Took a stroll down the east coast to get to Fuchsia City, where everyone (except Dany) took turns beating up Jasmine, mostly because her Venomoth turned out to be more of a pain than expected
-Flew back up to Saffron, rode west to Celadon, where Ser Jorah and Tucker took on Erika with no issue. Ursarings are absolute beasts, Avalanche isn’t even STAB and it one-shot a Victreebel 2 or 3 levels higher than it.
-Did some training on the Cycling Road and north of Cerulean where Dany FINALLY reached Lv. 55 and evolved into Dragonite!
-Found a hidden Heart Scale in Vermillion, flew back to Blackthorn, went to the Move Relearner and taught Dany Thunderpunch. Also taught her the Dragon Claw TM I found on the way to Victory Road because I’m tired of Dragon Rush’s accuracy (or rather, lack thereof)
-Saved the Power Plant, then Dany, Ulfric, and Tucker took out Misty
-Killed a Snorlax, went through A Cave, then Ser Jorah, Dany, and Ulfric took out Brock. Taught Roy Rock Slide.
-Sailed south from Pallet, took out Blaine with Roy and Dany (that Magmar got pretty annoying with Confuse Ray)
-Ser Jorah, Roy, and Dany took out Blue valiantly

SoulSilver Update #6

-Did another one of my time-travelling world tours to wrangle up all of the Gym Leaders into the Fighting Dojo for rematches, after which everyone was around Lv. 60
- Bought up some items and decided to go straight for the E4 rematch
-Roy and especially Ulfirc completely obliterated Will this time around
-Roy, Tucker, and Ulfric took out Koga, with Muk being quite annoying but nothing more
-Bruno turned out to be much tougher than I was expecting, with Tucker’s Reflect being the true hero of the fight
-Karen was one of the easier fights, with Ulfric running the show accompanied by Roy and Ser Jorah
-Lance was not the greatest fight at all, I probably used more items than moves, but when I wasn’t healing I was taking things out in one or two shots, which is alright I guess

Probably gonna put this challenge on the backburner and move on while I gather up the willpower to grind up those levels to take on Red. I'll at the very latest finish it before I start Gen V.

Sorry for the double post, but this one is gonna be a big one, that includes a whole new run, so....

SoulSilver FINAL UPDATE

-Grinded everyone up to Lv.72. Pretty painful, but getting my hands on a Lucky Egg helped out quite a bit
-The Red fight was a lot of luck and a lot of item use. My main strategy was to get a Sandstorm up at the very beginning and then praying for Blizzard misses. EVeryone played their part

Ultimate Monocolor Brown Ruby First and FINAL update! :D:D:D

Name: Sienna (went with a girl this time)
Starter: Reginald the Mudkip

-After the starting things, caught the first real member of the team on Route 102, Scherzo the Seedot! Also caught Zach the Zigzagoon for HM purposes
-Reginald pretty much has to babysit Scherzo until we learn a new attacking move other than Bide, cause Bide is too risky for my liking
-Caught a Slakoth in Petalburg Woods to trade in Rustboro for Makit the Makuhita
-Got Makit up to Lv. 14 then took on Roxanne. It was a bit rough because he was ignoring orders, but it got done
-Realized Bullet Seed wasn’t the item behind the bush on Route 104 but obtained from the guy by the flower shop. Taught it to Scherzo nonetheless.
-Scherzo evolved into Nuzleaf going towards The Tunnel
-Sailed to Dewford and went to Granite Cave where we saw the return of our good friend Horace the Abra!
-Went blindly through the cave to talk to Steven, took a quick trip back up to Rustboro to get the Exp Share to slap on Horace till he evolves
-Sailed to Slateport to train on the trainers there, then finished up back in Granite Cave where Horace evolved into Kadabra and learned Confusion
-Horace then proceeded to utterly decimate Brawly and his Gym. Taught Makit Bulk Up.
-Got up to Mauville and tried to take on the Gym right away. Big mistake.
-While training up on the routes around it, Makit evolved into Hariyama, who then proceeded to take on Wattson by himself. Taught Horace Shock Wave.
-Caught the next member of our team, Thomas the Torkoal, in Fiery Pass
-Got to Fallarbor, went to That Cave, beat up That Boss Guy on The Mountain, went to Lavaridge
-Thomas and Makit took out Flannery with no issue
-Norman was simple as anything with Thomas’ Protect
-Caught Airbus the Tropius for very-near-future HM use
-Saved the Weather Place, killed Brendan
-Winona was actually pretty tough, ended up coming down to Thomas using Iron Defense.
-Found the Leaf Stone on route 119 and evolved Scherzo into Shiftry. Taught him Aerial Ace.
-Dealt with some Team Magma Things at Mt. Pyre and their hideout.
-Beat Tate & Liza with some difficulty
-Since that was the seventh gym, got a Wailmer up to Lv. 40 so it evolved, caught a Relincath, then went to do the silly things I needed to do to catch the last member of the team, Regirock (who I forgot to nickname :S)! Used the Master Ball cause I’m lazy
-Scherzo, Makit, and Horace took out Wallace with little issue.
-Victory Road was actually kind of rough to get through.
-VBA Linked me an Alakazam
-Grinded everyone up to Lv. 55, which didn’t take too too long with the Speed button on the emulator
-Then we took on the E4! Sidnet got utterly demolished by Makit, Thomas, and Scherzo
-Phoebe got crushed by Scherzo, Makit, and Regirock
-Glacia was taken out by Makit and Horace
-Drake was a team effort, with Regirock pulling out ahead slightly to be the MVP
-Steven was pretty easy, with Makit being the MVP but everyone played their part

Completed White today:

♦ Beat the first gym with Oshawott and then caught Grapefruit the Munna and Chocolate the Audino as team members.
♦ Chocolate & Grapefruit were complete bosses and got through a large portion of Unova without trouble. I evolved Grapefruit after it had learned Psychic.
♦ After getting Surf, I captured the third team member; Watermelon the Alomomola.
♦ The rest of Unova wasn't any trouble either. My team was a little higher than Lv 50 when I reached the Elite Four.
♦ Shauntal was easily taken down, Caitlin and Marshal didn't put up much of a fight either. Grimsley was annoying though.
♦ N and Ghetsis were easily taken down by the whole team.
♦ The postgame wasn't too exciting. I wanted to catch a Porygon for the team, but it never happened because the special dude in White Forest you need to
talk to in order for them to appear wasn't there.
♦ When the postgame was done, I challenged and beat the Elite Four and Alder!

Update for Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Brown).
 
I started the Sinnoh leg of my Brown monocolor a couple days ago, here's what I've done so far.


Update #1 on Platinum.

Name: Brown
Rival: Barry
Starter: Chimchar
  • Picked Chimchar, named him Mars.
  • On the way to Oreburgh City, Mars evolved into Monferno!
  • Then I caught a Machop and traded for Kazza the Abra.
  • Mars defeated Roark easily with Mach Punch.
  • On the way up to Florama Town, Kazza evolved into Kadabra!
  • Kazza defeated Mars in the Windworks, and we moved on through the forest to to Eterna City.
  • Gardenia was easy to beat with Mars's Flame Wheel.
  • Then we infiltrated the TG Etern Building, with Mars beating Jupiter (having a Mars on my team is confusing, lol).
  • Got the Bike and went across Cycling Road, then on through MT. Coronet to Hearthome City.
  • Took on the gym, and Fantina was defeated by Kazza and Mars.
  • Moved on to Solaceon Town after beating Barry, and I caught Sammy the Staravia on Route 210.
  • Beat a bunch of trainers I skipped earlier, including Wayward Cave. Saved in the Solaceon Ruins.

Sooooo I totally intend to finish my Brown run, but while I was watching the TheSpeedGamer's marathon last week I started a Red Monocolor on FireRed because it lagged a whole lot less with the livestream running in the background.

Pokemon Monocolor Red Ultimate FireRed 1st and FINAL Update:


Name: Red
Starter: Aerys the Charmander
Rival: Green

-Aerys is gonna be are only buddy for the first part of this game, so say hi!
-Did all the starting stuff, went through the forest, got Aerys up to Lv.14 and beat Brock without a whole lot of issue thanks to Metal Claw
-Aerys evolved into Charmeleon at Lv.16 on Route 3
-Got through Mt. Moon, catching Campbell the Paras for HM purposes in the process
-Got to Cerulean, beat Nugget Bridge, then caught the second member of the team, Margaery the Oddish on Route 24. Taught her Bullet Seed.
-Got Margaery up to Lv. 20 and then took on Misty. Margaery took care of most of it, but Starmie got a lucky crit so Aerys had to finish the job
-Forgot I had a Rare Candy to use, so I used it on Margaery to get her to Lv.21, who proceed to evolve into Gloom :P
-Did the whole SS Anne thing, got Cut, backtracked to Cerulean, went east to Route 10 and caught the third member of the team, Young Neil the Voltorb!
-Lt. Surge was pretty annoying with Raichu’s Double Team. It was funny though, because he actually died by hitting Paras who was switched in to revive Margaery and he got poisoned from Paras’ Effect Spore :)
-Went and got Flash, went through the Rock Tunnel, went down to route 12 thinking I could get the super rod right away, and even though I was mistaken, Young Neil evolved into Electrode in the process
-Skipped most of the trainers on our way to Celadon, but once we got there we got our fourth team member, Gideon the Eevee. Taught him Dig.
-Went to the Dept. Store, bought a Fire Stone and a Leaf Stone, and evolved Gideon and Margaery into Flareon and Vileplume respectively!
-Aerys destroyed Erika. Taught Margaery Giga Drain.
-Beat up Team Rocket, saved the tower, got the Poke Flute, beat up a Snorlax, got the Super Rod
-Took a detour through Saffron, got the TM for Psychic, went north of Cerulean, caught a Poliwhirl with the Super Rod, traded him in town for the final member of the team, Zynx the Jynx! Tagught her Psychic and Water Pulse
-Bought the coins at the game corner to buy Flamethrower to teach to Gideon
-Beat up Team Rocket again at Silph Co., during which Aerys evolved into Charizard at Lv.36
-Got to Fuchsia via Cycling Road, then Zynx proceeded to demolish Koga
-Did the whole Safari Zone thing, then went up to Saffron and took out Sabrina with Gideon and Zynx
-Had enough money to go buy the TM for Thunderbolt at the Game Corner to teach to Young Neil
-Did the stuff on Cinnibar, including taking out Blaine with a group effort between all the team members that weren’t weak to Fire.

Completed the Kanto section of my Yellow run.

♦ Started by getting Squirtle for HM slaving, and later on catching a Weedle that I named Kurapika.
♦ While going through Viridian Forest, Kurapika evolved twice and proceeded to take on Brock. Harden helped a lot.
♦ Went through Mt. Moon, and caught Killua the Sandshrew outside. Trained both Kurapika and Killua on Nugget Bridge and Route 25 before taking on Misty, who was handled by Kurapika.
♦ Made my way down to Vermilion, raided the S.S. Anne (Killua evolved), beat Lt. Surge, went through Rock Tunnel and caught Mito the Vulpix shortly after.
♦ Trained Mito and evolved her when she had learnt Flamethrower, so she could take care of Erika and the Rockets with ease.
♦ Skipped a lot of trainers on Cycling Road, to get to Fuchsia as fast as possible. Went to the Safari Zone and caught Gon the Exeggcute, who completed the team.
♦ Trained Gon up a little, and then evolved him.
♦ Nothing exciting really happened after that, I beat Gym Leaders and my rival. Eventually, it was time for the Elite Four and Champion, who were pretty difficult to beat, but I managed to pull it off.

I would've had a video for the Champion battle, but the video file got screwed up...also, gonna do SoulSilver next even though I said HeartGold, but I don't think that matters too much.

Question! I read this and started wondering, can I do this on Touhoumon? It's a hack that replaces pokemon with, well, touhou. I think they still have colors, so I wanna know if I can still do the challenge here.

EDIT: Yeah, I confirmed that they do have colors.

I'm also kiiiiiiiind of putting the Brown Run on hold for now (I know, ADD much?) to try out an LP of an Ultimate Purple Run. It's something I've wanted to try out for a while, but only now figured out a way that I wanted to do it, if that makes sense.

Here is a link to my thread in the LP subforum, and here is a link to my FireRed playlist on youtube.

I'm a bit backlogged on videos, I actually just finished up the Pokémon Tower, with this team:

IGN: Blue
Color: Blue

Ultimate: Nope!

The Beginning:

So for my starter I picked Oshawatt and I named him Indigo!
and that's all I have so far! :p
Will try and keep the updates posted! :D

wubwubwubwub July 15th, 2012 12:45 PM

White/Blue Monocolor Part 1:

-Got Indigo to level 10 before actually leaving Nuvema Town
-Finally left and came across Bianca and Cheren, taught them the power of Indigo :D
-I decided to train some more got Indigo
to level 16 :)
-Then I went to the gym and breezed through it :)
-Now I'm about to go to Wellspring Cave and capture a nice Roggenrola and maybe a Woobat(for now :p)

White/Blue Monocolor Part 2:

-Well got Indigo to level 17 and it evolved into a Dewott
-I then got into Wellspring Cave and got a female Woobatthat I named Blueberry
-I also caught a Roggenrola and I named him Cobalt

-After all that I took all my Pokes down to Nacrene to get them healed
-I decided to bypass the gym for now, so that I could pick up a Sawk
-I caught a little Tympole that I named Toadie
-The Sawk ended up being a really rare spawn from the shaking grass in outer Pinwheel so by the time I came across one all of my Pokes were level 25 and had all evolved -_-
-Since I like having my pokemon the same level I went on an Audino battling spree!
-So now my team consists of:

-Indigo 25 Dewott
-Blueberry 25 Swoobat
-Cobalt 25 Boldore
-Bruiser 25 Sawk
-Toadie 25 Palpitoad

More Updates Coming Soon! :)

wubwubwubwub July 19th, 2012 10:13 AM

I'm gonna have to withdraw from this challenge I really cant seem to make my self finish white :/

Sydian July 19th, 2012 10:19 PM

Someone mentioned to me in irc today that you allow legenaries, so this gives me an excuse to use Regice, which I've been DYING to do.

User: Sydian
Game: Ruby
Color: Blue (lol ruby and blue so hilar)

I plan on using Swampert, Chimecho, Heracross, Lanturn, Regice, and Altaria. I might use Tailow and Loudred for a while too, because that'd be a long time to go without another party member. idk yet. Question though, if I end up searching for DAYS for Chimecho, am I allowed to trade one in? If not, that's fine. I found 5% encounter rate Riolu and Eevee in Black 2, I can survive another Chimecho search.

I don't have a problem with that, since you asked so nicely, but at least give it some effort, lol.

I will be updating my brown challenge soon, just gonna beat Volkner first.

I forgot to mention that you can't use him until after the 7th gym. You might have seen that in the rules already, but I don't want to get in trouble for giving you false information lol.

Sydian July 20th, 2012 10:33 AM

Thanks JD! I mean, if I go a day without finding one, I'll draw the line and trade one. Though I hate getting out the old GBAs and fiddling with the cord. And thanks Huggermugger. I saw that rule, but you can only get Regice after 7th badge anyway. ;) Good planning on my part, right? lolol Anyway, about to start. Oddly enough, this ties in with my Pick Up and Play challenge, as I have Ruby next on the list. Yay.

Player: Alice
Game: Ruby
Color: Blue
Badges: 3

Aqua Grunt Alice knows deep down that what she's fighting for is wrong, but felt compelled to join from family pressures. Her parents were ex-Rocket Grunts, and some estranged family members were a part of Team Magma. Aside from that, it was the only way she would be able to leave the house and fulfill her real dream-- to collect the 8 badges of Hoenn and meet the legendary Pokemon that roams the region. The Pokemon offered by Team Aqua weren't quite up to par with her standards, and she has taken a liking to blue Pokemon. To enter gyms with her blue themed team, she disguises herself in red. She often has had to disarm Team Magma, while in both disguise and uniform, as well. Even though she's not fond of her job, at least she can say she's doing it better than her fellow grunts.
