Ultimate Red Monocolor Challenge SoulSilver Update #4


-Went through Ice Path to get the next member of the team, Ygritte the Jynx
-After several hours of Voltorb Flip, had enough coins to purchase the TM for Ice Beam to teach to Ygritte
-Trained her up on trainer rematches and then used her and Billy to take down Claire with relative ease
-The Kimono Girls nearly kicked my bum because I was careless
-Killed Lugia because I couldn’t be bothered
-Got through Victory Road with no issue

-Umberto did most of the work on Will with some help from Billy and Ygritte
-Stannis was the MVP for the Koga fight with assists from Pyke and Billy
-I expected Umberto to do most of the work in the Bruno fight, but she got taken out early, so It was more of a team effort with quite a bit of help from Waterfall flinch hax via Pyke
-Umberto, Pyke and Billy took out Karen as a team
-Lance was a mess since we were fairly underleveled, but it got done.

some other pics


I'm done completed it atleast, I might do a ultimate of blue but for now it's a bye-bye

NOTE: This was a hack of Fire Red, It was quite hard. Some of my Pokemon ended up level 70+ while the strongest Pokemon was level 70. The start was quite easy but after the Sliph Co. event trainers were scripted quite smart and knew to take my team down.
The difficultness is quite fun and I request everyone to play this hack of fire red (yet another fire red hack)
NOTE: Due that I forgot to take screens of some E4 fight ends on certain pictures Pokemon are not the same level because the picture was taken not straight in a row.

Halfcadence December 15th, 2012 2:03 PM

So I got angry at my SoulSilver run after my game froze after training without saving for about an hour. So, I did the entire Emerald run!

Pokemon Red Monocolor Challenge Emerald First and Final Update


Name: Red
Starter: Kickpunchr the Torchic

-Blahblahblah Kickpunchr evolved, Roxanne was easy.
-Delivered the Letter in Dewford, then went straight to the route north of Slateport to catch the second member of the team, Loras the Oddish
-Backtracked to grab the Exp Share, then went back and took out Brawly easily with Kickpunchr’s Peck
-Loras evolved into Gloom on the same route we caught him on
-Wattson wasn’t that bad, I had a few levels on him.
-Got to Meteor Falls and caught the third team member, Dagr the Solrock
-Got Dagr up to the same level-ish as the rest of the team and he went on to completely tank the Flannery fight
-Norman actually came down to the wire, with Slaking taking out Kickpunchr as soon as he came out with a Façade crit.
-Got Surf, got the Good Rod, got the last member of the team, Claudia the Corphish
-Route 119 was the route of evolutions: Claudia evolved into Crawdaunt on a random trainer battle, Kickpunchr evolved into Blaziken in the Weater Institute, and we found a Leaf Stone which we used to evolved Loras into Vileplume
-Dagr single-handedly destroyed Winona
-Dealt with the bad guy stuff, then Dagr took control of the Tate and Liza fight, with everyone else being at his side at some point
-It took a couple of tries from Loras and Claudia to take out Juan, mainly because Kingdra is more trouble than it’s worth. Got lucky with an Ice Beam freeze hax.
-Got through Victory Road, grinded everyone to Lv. 50
-Tried the E4, realized I was missing something, went to the Power Plant thing, and used my Master Ball to catch YoungNeil2 the Voltorb!
-Trained up YoungNeil2 on trainer rematches and in Victory Road, during which, of course, he evolved into Electrode
-Then to the E4!

-Kickpunchr ruined most of Sidney’s day with +1 Double Kicks, with Claudia stepping in to finish the job
-Claudia walled Phoebe for the most part
-Kickpunchr, Claudia, and YoungNeil2 took out Glacia with little issue
Claudia was the star in the Drake fight
-The Wallace fight was an absolute disaster, mostly because his Milotic is a goshdarned so-and-so. I literally had to item spam until is got down to STRUGGLE. Ugh. The fight got done though

Ultimate Red Monocolor Challenge SoulSilver Update #5


-Got the Mirror Coat from the guy on the SS Aqua, which means it was finally time to PokeSav evolve Umberto into a Scizor!
-Got the TM for Psychich in Saffron to teach to Ygritte
-Went straight to Celadon, and after a whole lot more hours in the Game Corner (thank goodness I find Voltorb Flip relaxing), I had enough coins to purchase Zed the Porygon (the team member Billy was filling in for) and the TM for Thunderbolt to teach to it. Also taught it Shadow Ball
-Went to Silph Co., picked up the Up-grade, and evolved Zed into Porygon2
-Stannis and Umberto took a trip to Celadon to take care of Erika
-Went down to Fuchsia. Janine turned out to be tougher than expected, with everyone getting some battle time
-Did some training along the east coast, catching up Zed with the rest of the team
-Ended up in Saffron, where Umberto took out Sabrina with no issue
-Went south where Ygritte and Stannis took down Lt. Surge
-Got Ygritte the TM for Grass Knot
-Blahblah Power Plant Blah Misty got rocked by Zed and Ygritte
-Brock turned into an entire team affair since both of my teammates that had super-effective moves against Rock were also weak to Rock
-Of course Blaine’s Magmar had to have ThunderPunch, so Stannis and Zed had to help Pyke take him out
-Grinded out a couple E4 runs so I could beat Blue with a bit more dignity
-The fight was still a challenge. Some Revives were thrown around
-Caught Everest the Machop in Rock Tunnel, taught it Rock Climb (which I just got from Oak), got the Magmarizer on Cinnibar and the Dubios Disc way back on Route 42
-With these new items in hand, “evolved” Stannis into a Magmortar and Zed into a Porygon-Z. FINALLY got to teach Stannis Earthquake

Please excuse the double post, but to be fair I did wait a couple days to see if anyone would post in between me.

I was watching TheSpeedGamers Mario Marathon this past weekend, so naturally I had to do some sort of pre-GenIV runs while I had the stream going , so.....

Ultimate Purple Monocolor Challenge FireRed First and FINAL Update

I deleted my notes by accident (/facepalm), but what I can say is that it was a bit tougher than usual. Weezing is not cut out for Special sweeping, I can tell you that much. We got through it though. I think at one point during the E4 I had to bring a Milotic down to goshdarn STRUGGLE. That was fun. I also had to beat Brock with a Lv. 16 Rattata.

jdthebud December 21st, 2012 10:14 PM

Just thought I'd make a clarification post here, since quite a few people are playing hacks lately. This has to do with the Ultimate challenge.

In the original rules, I said that only established hacks count towards the Ultimate Challenge. So for example, Shiny Gold, which recreates the Johto region in a Gen III mode.

The new, more inclusive, rule now is going to be this: Any hack that follows the same story will count (such as Blaze Black or Storm Silver). However, you can ONLY USE POKEMON THAT WOULD NORMALLY APPEAR IN THE ORIGINAL MAIN SERIES GAME!!!

So if you are playing on Storm Silver, which is a 493 hack with increased difficulty, but follows the story the same way, you can't be using an Arcanine or Donphan, both which are pretty easy to get in the hack but can't be found in the original SoulSilver game. You can only use Pokemon on your team that are found in a normal SoulSilver game, while following the locations as close as you can.

This new clarification will allow for some of the great 386/493/649 hacks to be included in the Ultimate Challenge while still keeping the spirit of the challenge in place, especially when compared to people who play the main series games.

All hacks are fine to play as stand alones if you want, there are no real restrictions on that.

Please, if you have any questions, ask! Either VM/PM me or post in this thread, and I will answer you as best as I can.

Why do you have a Krabby for the Brock fight? Charmander's available right from the start, meaning you didn't need/weren't permitted to hack anything in. Just sayin'

Anyways, (final) update time!

Hey man, why are you using Slugma and Octilliry at the beginning? there are plenty of red pokemon before the first gym, and besides, when you hack in something, only one is allowed. Please read the rules completely before continuing, and you need to start over and do it correctly, please.

On a side note, next time you post an image that big, use a spoiler tag so it doesn't take up so much space on the page, please.

Didn't notice the 1 only but it shouldn't really matter too much that I hacked them in.

Also, there are no red pokemon before the first gym? I think Paras might appear.

Halfcadence December 28th, 2012 5:40 PM

There's Ledyba and Spinarak available (Ariados is considered red). It's tough, but it's what I had to do myself, so its only fair?

I didn't know you could get those 2 before the first gym, I tell you what when I complete the challenge I will start again and rebeat the first gym with a spinarak and Ledyba

Not the way it works, man. Nice try. Sorry, but you need to restart and play through the game correctly, other wise I won't count it.

I hate to point this out, I really do, but Ho-oh isn't allowed in the challenge. Only legendaries under a BST of 600 are permitted. It's right there in the rules, dude.

You have to be kidding me? I didn't even notice...

Well if that run isn't going to count I am not doing it anymore, I already restarted once, then I got glitched when I got to brock and had to restart from the E4. I was up all night playing it.

Chevitile December 30th, 2012 8:31 AM

Ruby finished! Began by catching Marilyn the Ralts, and later on added Ricky the Zangoose, Stache the Castform and Skull the Absol. The whole game was a piece of cake, honestly, and Castform was so much more useful than I thought it would be. It didn't really do anything in the Elite Four challenge, but other than that, it was awesome.

Hey, I'm playing FireRed, and I want Jynx in my party. But in order to do that, I gotta trade a Poliwhirl that is level at least level 25. Can I use Poliwag and level it up until 25 so I could get Jynx? Or I'm not allowed, since it's color is blue?

Yeah, just on wilds though, although you can get Poliwhirl in Viridian City with the Super Rod, which is easy to get, and I always get it before Fuchsia City, where the Good Rod is.

Going to be doing a solo challenge with Totodile it will count as a MonoType/Mono-Colour and Solo challenge so Goodluck me! :D

  3. For those playing on GSC/HGSS, if you cannot get three team members before going to Kanto, two can be used.
Going with more than three is encouraged, however, as is keeping your team somewhat balanced level-wise.

Honestly, it's not that hard to read the rules. It takes five minutes, max.

If i catch 2 pokemon which are blue and keep them in the party, If i happen not to use them it still counts as a Mono-Colour challenge. Also it stays as a solo challenge and it counts as a Mono-type challenge.

there is no rule saying that I have to use the pokemon I catch, Only that I have to have them with me.

Note the use of the word viable. As in, three team members that you use throughout the challenge. A solo challenge doesn't use any other members except for the one. The only solo challenge that qualifies as a monocolor is a Snorlax run in RBY/FRLG, because it's the only black Pokemon in the Kanto Dex.

You can do a Totodile solo if you want, and he'd a pretty good one to do it with, but it won't count as a monocolor, sorry.

The Undisputed Era December 31st, 2012 3:50 PM

Mono-Colour Blue for pokemon gold completed! Can't say it didn't count because I did it all legitly.



Next up is Blue for Hoenn :D

Same thing I asked on the Mono-type challenge, What is the rule for dupe clauses?

Dupes are not encouraged at all, since you should be able to get the minimum on every color (except black in Kanto), although it's not like ou can't have dupes if you want - no more than one though, please. We like variety here :). I saw your question in the monotype thread about using Venusaur and 2 Victrebel for a combo green/grass mono, and that will work, although you don't really need to have a second Victreebel, since the minimum party number in Kanto is 2.

and congrats on finishing your blue challenge on Gold.

~-~ Team Synopsis ~-~


MVP - Egghead
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/d/d2/Spr_1b_103.png
Solarbeam - Toxic
Psychic - Egg Bomb

Egghead was a spur of the moment choice for my team, since I didn’t have a Grass type on my team. However, after evolution, Egghead’s massive Special stat really made him the star player on my team, even being able to sweep Bruno’s entire team without hassle. Solarbeam is a must have for any Exeggutor, so naturally once I got it I didn’t even hesitate to replace Barrage. Solarbeam didn’t see much use outside of Giovanni and Bruno, however. Toxic was only used once, but it made it possible to actually defeat Lance’s Dragonite. Psychic was already on Sandman, but Egghead had the superior Special to use it better, and was Egghead’s main attack in all battles. Egg Bomb was a nifty move, and really served as a basic attack, helping out occasionally, but was not the main feature of Egghead. Egghead really earned his place as MVP, and I would gladly use him again in another play-through.

LVP - Sgt. Sting
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/4/45/Spr_1b_015.png
Poison Sting - Twineedle
Pin Missile - Rage

I expected Sgt. Sting to become obsolete, but he really served his use for the first 6 gyms much better than I expected he would. With Bug type’s incredible power in the first generation, he was the wild card that took down Poison, Psychic, and Ghost types with ease. However, his low stats really shined once we got to the Elite Four, and I had counted on him to take out Agatha. However, he didn’t do really anything for the last stretch of the game, and unfortunately got placed as LVP because of it. Poison Sting was never really used, and was simply a relic of his old Weedle days. Twineedle was Sgt. Sting’s best attack, as it was both powerful, hit twice, and could poison. Because of this, Twineedle was Sgt. Sting’s main attack, and was quite useful while Sgt. Sting was helpful. Pin Missile was Sgt. Sting’s other Bug type move, and was used on bulkier Pokemon with more health, since it had the chance to hit 5 times. I had expected Rage to be useful, but being locked on one move with frail defenses did not help Sgt. Sting at all, and was rarely used. Sgt. Sting was extremely useful as an early Pokemon, but just became unusable as the late part of the game progressed. I could see using him again, but not as a permanent member of my team.

Wheeler
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/5/53/Spr_1b_026.png
Thunderbolt - Mega Punch
Thunder Wave - Swift

Wheeler’s high Speed and Attack made him a good sweeper, along with his usefulness on Water and Flying types, and was definitely a fun choice. He showed his use against Misty for obvious reasons, as well as Xerxes’ Pidgeot and Gyarados. Since I was able to pick him up early, Wheeler became a key member of my team, and is highly recommended. Thunderbolt was Wheeler’s main attack, and I abused it heavily. It made light work of any Pokemon not immune or resistant to it, and the paralysis was nice too. I taught Mega Punch on a whim, since he could learn it, and it was a good choice, able to 2HKO and occasionally OHKO other Pokemon with ease before they could attack. Thunder Wave and Swift just came naturally to Pikachu, and were only ever used as last resort moves. Wheeler made an excellent member of my team, and I would gladly use him again, perhaps later in the challenge.

Sandman
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/0/09/Spr_1b_097.png
Body Slam - Hypnosis
Psychic - Metronome

Sandman was my main special attacking force up until I got Egghead, and I expected him to be the MVP while I used him. His Special stat made him ultimately valuable, and his attacks complimented him nicely. Body Slam was surprisingly useful, and it’s Paralysis effect activated quite often. I found myself using Body Slam a lot, sometimes more than Psychic, and was a staple of the team. Hypnosis was only used in tough fights when I needed to heal my Pokemon, but it definitely served its use in the Champion battle. Psychic was Sandman’s main attack, and took down most Pokemon with relative ease. Metronome was an attack that I just added at random, hoping it would help at some point, though the biggest thing it ever did was cause Sandman to use Selfdestruct, which was not as fun as it might sound. Even after catching Egghead, Sandman’s early evolution made him of the utmost use to my team, and helped me fly through the game.

Rarity
http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/3/33/Spr_1b_078.png
Fire Blast - Tail Whip
Stomp - Growl

Rarity was a late game catch, and I didn’t expect to get too much use from her, but she showed off some impressive skills. She rivaled Wheeler with her Speed and Attack, and while Stomp was weaker than Mega Punch, its Flinch ability activated at good times, making Rarity a good attacker. Fire Blast was a useful move for closing the gap in type coverage I had, and was useful against Lorelei and Xerxes, as well as being used other times. Fire Blast’s Burn status was also quite useful, cutting the opponent’s Attack. Tail Whip and Growl were just attacks that I caught Rarity with, and never got rid of. Stomp was Rarity’s main attack, and was a lot of fun when it worked right, causing the opponent to flinch. Rarity was a good member of the team for coming in so late, and I wish I could have caught her earlier for more use. I will definitely pick up another Ponyta in the future for prolonged use.

Alright, well Red is now finished! Onwards to Crystal!

Platinum's finished. I had fun with this challenge, even though it was done very quickly. I didn't really have a hard time anywhere, because I guess I had pretty powerful Pokémon. I used a Pachirisu from Floaroma to Pastoria, and then I dropped it. It was never meant to stay permanently, but it found its uses all the way until Pastoria.

Got the maingame of Pokémon White complete. I started off by hacking in a Cubchoo, and added Foongus, Frillish and Larvesta as I progressed through the game. It was a pretty easy ride all the way through, because I had a pretty well-rounded team. But I have a feeling the postgame will be a bit more challenging.

Not sure if you're following the rules here exactly, but the only Pokemon on your team that qualifies as Yellow is Beedrill and Sandshrew. We are following the official Pokedex color, if you go back to the OP you can find a Pokemon list by color. We aren't subjectively picking Pokemon that have yellow colors in their sprites.



and now for an update:

Update on Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Pink).

Update #2 on White.
  • Beat Cheren and met Alder, then crossed the bridge to Driftveil City.
  • Cleared out the Cold Storage, then defeated Clay at the gym.
  • Went through Chargestone Cave, and when Dreamer learned Psychic, I evolved her with a Moon Stone into Musharna!
  • Scaled the Celestial Tower, then defeated Skyla at the Mistralton City gym.
  • Beat Cheren again, then got Surf from Alder.
  • Caught my third team member, Alomomola, at Driftveil City.
  • Trained her up on all the water routes and unlocked areas with Surf.
  • Moving on from Mistralton City, I went through Twist Mountain to Icirrus City.
  • Took on the gym and defeated Brycen easily with Alomomola.
  • Team Plasma showed up again, and I beat them up in the Dragonspiral Tower and Relic Castle.
  • Made my way to Opelucid City, where I defeated Iris with Amanda.
  • Wen through Route 10 and Victory Road without much trouble and arrived at the Pokemon League.
  • Did a little moveset editing, then took on the Elite Four.
  • Everyone contributed to taking them down (no solos at all, actually), with Alomomola garnering MVP honors.
  • Several cutscenes later, I defeated N and Ghetsis with difficulty (Max Revives were used shamelessly), and the credits rolled.
  • Back home, I realized that I forgot to name Alomomola, so I jetted over to the Name Rater and named her Valentine.
  • I am saved in Castelia City.

Phew, I'm fully done with my White challenge now. As I expected, the postgame was a bit more difficult and required some grinding for my team, but it wasn't impossible. Everyone was around Lv 67 after the postgame, and then I just used some Rare Candies on Aspiras to get him to Lv 70, where he learned Bug Buzz. That's why he's a bit higher levelled than the rest of the team.

Nevertheless, I got up for a second round against the Elite Four, and then had a pretty tedious and challenging fight with Alder. Lots of Revives and Hyper Potions were used, but at least I beat him.

Update on Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Pink).

Final Update (#3) on White.
  • Postgame time, here we go.
  • First I caught Pacific the Clamperl, then used an Evo Editor to evolve him into Gorebyss!
  • Then I grabbed a male Budew in White Forest, got it to evolve all the way into Roserade, retaught it Weather Ball, then bred it with a female Cherrim I got on Route 12.
  • Out hatched Sakura the Cherubi, with Weather Ball as an Egg move.
  • Killed a L50 Audino with my L1 Sakura, and it grew all the way to L29 :cool: and evolved into Cherrim!
  • Now that my team was complete, I began exploring the eastern part of Unova, training my team up as I went.
  • Encountered Kyurem in the Giant Chasm and killed it.
  • Defeated Cheren in Victory Road.
  • Defeated Morimoto in Castelia City.
  • Defeated Cynthia after a long battle in Undella Town.
  • Got my team to L73 with Rare Candies, and it was time to face the Elite Four again.
  • Everyone contributed in taking them down, with Sakura being the MVP.

'Kay, I decided to start a Green challenge. I've already done LeafGreen, and I'm currently working on HeartGold. My other games will be Emerald, Pearl and Black 2. I'll give an update on LeafGreen soon.

jdthebud January 22nd, 2013 11:03 PM

Start of Ultimate Monocolor Challenge #5 - Black.

Time to start a Black monocolor! Going with FireRed first, which will also be a Snorlax solo run, so it should be over pretty quickly.

Update #1 on FireRed.

Name: Black
Starter: Snorlax
  • Hacked in a L2 Snorlax as my starter and named him Grumpy.
  • Beat Blue with the help of a Potion.
  • Grinded my way to Pewter City and lost against Brock.
  • Grinded some more, got to L13 when Grumpy learned Belly Drum, then beat Brock pretty easily with it and Headbutt.
  • Made my way through Mt. Moon without much trouble and reached Cerulean City.
  • Challenged the gym right away and beat Misty.
  • Did Nugget Bridge and saved Bill, then headed down to Vermilion City.
  • Went through the S.S. Anne and got Cut.
  • Defeated Lt. Surge easily with Secret Power.
  • Got the Flash HM, then went through Rock Tunnel to Lavender Town.
  • Zipped over to Celadon City and the Dept Store, where I bought some vitamins.
  • Picked up the Fly HM, then cleared out the Team Rocket Hideout.
  • Challenged the gym and defeated Erika easily with Body Slam.
  • Flew back to Lavender Town and scaled Pokemon Tower to save Mr. Fuji.

So, here's my update about LeafGreen. I started off by picking Bulbasaur and naming him Slaigh. I soloed with him all the way until the Nugget Bridge area, which really wasn't difficult, since the two first gyms are weak against Grass-types. Anyway, beside Nugget Bridge, I caught a Bellsprout that I named Salim. I trained him up a bit before moving on, and then I just breezed through the game. Only using two Pokémon made it easy since they were both high-levelled, but their same weaknesses had their bad points too.

Hey jd is it okay if I only use a Scyther and Venusaur in my Green challenge on Pokemon Red? I know Bellsprout is in this generation, but it's not available on Red.

Anyways, my update is as follows;
  • Picked Bulbasaur and named him DINO because
  • Smothered Brock
  • Made it through the Rocket Area in Mt Moon without a problem
  • Beat Misty and my rival at Nuget Bridge
  • Made it to the S.S Anne where I got the HM for cut
  • Won against Lt. Surge
  • Got through Rock Tunnel and paved my way to Celadon
  • Decided to beat the Rockets and get past Snorlax
  • Got to Fuschia City where I immediately went to the Safari Zone
  • After MUCH bad luck and MANY hours of gameplay I finally caught a Scyther and named him Hamlet
  • Now, I am training to take on Erika.

And the team so far:

Currently training Hamlet and omg all he knows are normal-typed moves! It's okay because every.single.attack is a critical hit lol. Right now, he's my favorite.

Final Update (#2) on FireRed.
  • The Fuschia Gym wasn't too hard, and Koga was a breeze.
  • Went to Sliph Co. and defeated Blue and Giovanni.
  • Challenged the Saffron Gym and beat Sabrina without too much trouble.
  • Surfed from Pallet Town to Cinnbar Island.

  • Taught Grumpy Earthquake, then defeated Blue on Route 22.
  • Went through Victory Road and took on the Elite Four.
  • Lorelei was pretty easy with Rock Slide and Body Slam.
  • Bruno was hard as heck, Grumpy needed several missed Cross Chops from Machamp to survive.
  • Agatha was so annoying with her Gengars, Grumpy only had Rock slide to hurt them.
  • Lance was tough as well because of Gyarados' Intimidate lowering Grumpy's Attack.
  • Finally it was time for the Champion, Blue. Here's the video and play-by-play of the battle:

Update on Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Black).

Moving on to Johto, playing on HeartGold.

Update #1 on HeartGold.

Name: Black
Rival: Silver
Starter: Cyndaquil
  • Played the game until I reached Violet City, then caught Blackie the Unown (B) in the Ruins of Alph, with a Rock-type Hidden Power.
  • Blackie barely beat Falkner because Pidgeotto kept using Roost.
  • Moved on through Union Cave to Azalea Town and cleared out the Slowpoke Well by beating Proton.
  • Defeated Silver with the help of a couple Super Potions, as Croconaw had Bite.
  • Bugsy was easy with Blackie's Hidden Power Rock.
  • Went through Ilex Forest, grabbing the Cut HM, and arrived in Goldenrod City.
  • Took on the gym. Barely beat Whitney thanks to a few Fresh Waters and Miltank using Rollout at the end, preventing any healing.
  • Avoided as many trainers I could on the way to Ecruteak City, talked to Bill, then went back to Goldenrod.
  • Got Kuro the Eevee from Bill.
  • After tons of Bike riding, a couple haircuts and some vitamins, and a couple levels gained, Kuro evolved into Umbreon!
  • Proceeded to beat all the trainers I had skipped before to train Kuro up.
  • Got the Surf and Strength HMs, explored the Burned Tower, beat Silver, and released the legendary dogs.
  • Took on the gym, which was very easy with Kuro's Dark typing and Pursuit.
  • Continued on to Olivine City, scaled Glitter Lighthouse, then Surfed to Cianwood City to get the SecretPotion.
  • Surfed back to Olivine and healed Amphy, then Surfed to Cianwood again after getting a call from Baoba, the Safari Warden.
  • Went to the Safari Zone, where I caught Boss the Murkrow.
  • Trained her up on the trainers I skipped on the way there and around the Whirl Islands.
  • Challenged the gym, and swept through all the trainers and Chuck with Boss' Wing Attack and Pluck.
  • Got the Fly HM, taught it to Boss, then flew to Olivine, where I challenged Jasmine in the gym, who was tough as usual. Kuro easily dispatched both Magnemite with Dig, but Steelix took him out. Boss survived an Iron Tail and finished it with Night Shade.
  • Realized I forgot to beat Eusine, so I sicced Kuro on him.
  • Did some exploring with Surf, then saved in Olivine City.

Pokemon Monocolor Yellow Update #1: Pokemon Blue Defeated
Blue, Silver, Sapphire, Platinum, Black 2


Enjoying my snow day, I raced to finish the first leg of the challenge. Luckily, the Pokemon Blue variety allowed me to pick and chose between quite a few Yellow Pokemon (And, unluckily for Sparky the Raichu, he had to be boxed in order for me to have a fire type on the team). Without much resistance, my Pokemon were able to blast through the Indigo League.

Pokemon Monocolor Yellow Update #2: Pokemon Silver Defeated
Blue, Silver, Sapphire, Platinum, Black 2

I mostly got to use the same Pokemon from last time, minus two swap outs with Gen 2 Pokemon. Luckily, the next 3 Gens should give me some different options... Other than that, I was happily surprised that I beat all of the game without grinding. I wasn't really expecting it, but it works for me!

Update on Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Black).

Update #2 on HeartGold.
  • Made my way to Mohagony Town and Lake of Rage, where I slew the Red Gyarados.
  • Talked to Lance and agreed to help out, then infiltrated the Hideout.
  • Defeated Petrel and Ariana to clear out the place, and got the Whirlpool HM from Lance.
  • Challenged the gym and beat Pryce rather easily.
  • Elm called about the Team Rocket Radio Tower takeover, so I went to deal with them.
  • Defeated Petrel again, then Silver in the Basement.
  • Proton and Ariana went down as well, then I defeated Archer to disband Team Rocket for good.
  • Went east from Mohagony Town through the Ice Path to Blackthorn City.
  • Trained a bit on the Mountain Road and explored Dark Cave a bit, then challenged the gym.
  • Claire was a tough fight, but Kuro prevailed in the end.
  • Did her stupid test and got the badge in the Dragon's Den, then got word from Elm about the Kimono Sisters.
  • Defeated them without too much trouble, then scaled the Bell Tower to catch Ho-oh.
  • Surfed east from New Bark Town to the Tojo Falls, then made my way to the Pokemon League, defeating Silver on the way.
  • Took on the Elite Four. Bruno was a tough fight with his fighters, as was Karen's Dark types, but the other two were easy enough.
  • Then it was time for the Champion, Lance. He was brutal, and I had to heal Kuro a lot to get through those Dragonite.
  • Eventually I was able to win after reviving Boss, who finished off Charizard to win.
  • Roll credits!

I'll have to wait a bit, though. Emulator is playing up and I'm a noob when it comes to re-setting the sound and in-game footage.. I've pressed something wrong, the music and the video is all messed up and jerky.

I've completed HeartGold. My team consisted of Meganium, Politoed, Xatu and Tyranitar. I really loved this team, it had a nice coverage with some defensive dudes and some offensive dudes.
Anyway, Johto was over very quickly, and Kanto even quicker. After I was done with both regions, I collected numbers from Gym Leaders and rebattled them. I'm glad you can battle them as many times as you like when they're free, otherwise this would've been a pain. When everyone was Lv 65, I went to face Red.

Emerald down! Started off with Treecko, and caught a Lotad soon after. Other team members included Lileep, Tropius and Kecleon. I usually don't use this many Pokémon, which made this challenge so much more fun, since I wasn't as overlevelled as I usually am. Everyone in the team had their strong points, such as Sceptile and Ludicolo being powerhouses, while Cradily was more of a tank. Tropius was a Pokémon that I was thinking about dropping, because it wasn't that useful. In the end I decided to keep it, because with some better moves it made itself useable here and there. Kecleon was way better than I expected, and I had some fun with its Color Change ability. It's definitely a Pokémon I'll consider using again.

My team members were around Lv 51-52 when I entered the Pokémon League. Drake and Wallace were definitely the most annoying ones, but I prevailed in the end.

The Sinnoh section of my Green monocolor challenge is now over. I had a pretty easy ride all the way through, until I got to the Elite Four. Things really started to become complicated there, but Bronzong with its massive defense stats pulled through. It was definitely my most valuable Pokémon in this run, especially considering that it had Heatproof and that all of my other team members were part Grass-type.

By the way, I'll be playing White 2 instead of Black 2, so I can use Reuniclus.

Update on Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Black).

I was going to play Ruby, but only Emerald has both Mawile and Seviper, even though I hacked in Mawile anyway since the first black Pokemon in Emerald is after the third gym.


Update #1 on Emerald.

Name: Black
Starter: Mawile
  • Used the A-Starter app to make Mawile my starter (replaced Treeko), and named him Cruncher.
  • Defeated May and her L5 Torchic.
  • Wow, Mawile only knows Astonish until L11, time to Struggle those Normal-types!
  • Defeated Roxanne pretty easily with Bite and Fake Tears.
  • Saved Peeko and met the Devon Corp President, then beat May again, thank God Mawile can learn Rock Tomb.
  • Hitched a ride to Dewford Town and delivered the Letter to Steven.
  • Brawly wasn't too hard after an X Attack since Cruncher has ViceGrip now.
  • Moved on through Slateport City and beat May again, Cruncher is getting a little overleveled now.
  • Beat some more trainers around Mauville City, then took on the gym.
  • Wattson was tough since Cruncher got paralyzed, but with a few healing items and an X Attack he was able to pull it out.
  • Went north to Fallarbor Town and caught Asmodeus the Seviper on Route 114. Redwall reference for the win!
  • Started training him up on trainers I skipped earlier, beat Maxie on Mt. Chimney, then hopped down to Lavaridge Town.
  • Taught Asmodeus Dig, and he barely soloed Flannery, that Torkoal is tough and Overheat is OP at this stage of the game.
  • Got the Go-Go-Goggles from May, then saved in the desert.

My Green challenge is now over, as I finished playing just a while ago. I had very much fun with this challenge, almost using a full team and trying out new Pokémon that I've been meaning to use for a while. Reuniclus was amazing, even in its previous stages. Garbodor was pretty good, but its ability Weak Armor was a hinderance sometimes, along with a pretty shabby moveset. Although, I was incredibly impressed of Basculin and its capabilities. I had no idea it could be so good. I'll definitely be using it again.

I abused the Lucky Egg ever since I got it in Mistralton City, and therefore I had a level advantage at the end of the game. Not a huge one, but it most certainly helped and was crucial at points, such as in the battle with Iris where some Pokémon survived with ~10 HP. I was supposed to have a video of the battle, but it was too long because of her Hydreigon.

My next color will be Gray. I'll go with FireRed, Crystal, Sapphire, Pearl and White 2.

Meanwhile, I have finished the Emerald portion of my Black ultimate.

Final Update (#2) on Emerald.

  • Started in the desert, where I caught Astrodoll the Baltoy.
  • Trained it up for a bit, then challenged my dad's gym in Petalburg City.
  • Norman wasn't too hard once I got past Slaking, Cruncher walls that gym for the most part.
  • Continued on to the water routes, and Astrodoll evolved into Claydol.
  • Went to Fortree City, where Astrodoll soloed Winona easily with Ice Beam.
  • Moved on to Lilycove City & Mt. Pyre, where I caught my final two team members: Evil Eye the Duskull & Marionette the Shuppet.
  • Started training them up on the trainers around the mountain, and entirely by chance encountered a SHINY SHUPPET!
  • Ditched my current Marionette for the shiny Shuppet, which I also named Marionette.
  • Grinded her up on some trainers I forgot to battle earlier and some rematches.
  • Went to the top of Mt. Pyre and got the Magma Emblem.
  • Infiltrated the Magma Hideout on Mt. Chimney, Groudon flew off somewhere, then I defeated Maxie rather easily.
  • Team Aqua was up to no good now, and I cleared out their Hideout next to Lilycove City as well.
  • Surfed to Mossdeep City, where I took on the gym.
  • Tate and Liza were tough, but I was able to defeat them thanks to all the coverage moves I had.
  • Beat Team Magma at the Rocket Center, then went diving for the Underwater Cavern, and Marionette finally evolved into Banette!
  • Defeated Archie easily with Cruncher, and Kyogre flew off to battle Groudon.
  • Made my way to Sootopolis, told Wallace about the Sky Pillar, then went there as well to awaken Rayquaza.
  • After Groudon and Kyogre calmed down, I took on the gym, and Juan was easily soled by Asmodeus' Giga Drain and Crunch.
  • Soon afterwards, Evil Eye evolved into Dusclops!
  • Beat some more trainers in Meteor Falls, then went to Victory Road, where I beat Wally easily with Astrodoll.
  • Made it through Victory Road without any problems to the Pokemon League.
  • Did some moveset finalizing and got everyone to L54 with Rare Candies, then took on the Elite Four.
  • Sidney was easily soloed by Asmodeus.
  • Pheobe was easily soloed by Marionette.
  • Glacia was tough, but I eventually pulled it out at the end with Marionette.
  • Drake was taken down by Evil Eye and Astrodoll's Ice Beam moves.
  • Finally it was time to face the Champion, Wallace. I did record this really tough fight, so here you go:

Name: Black
Rival: Barry
Starter: Turtwig
  • Defeated the first gym with Grotle easily, then got the Honey in Florama Town.
  • My trainer ID said that the Florama Meadow tree was a Munchlax tree, so I slapped some Honey on it and got Munchlax to appear!
  • Caught her and named her Grumpy as usual. All Munchlax spawn holding a Leftovers, which is awesome.
  • After some training, Grumpy defeated Mars with Return and Rock Tomb.
  • Got through Eterna Forest with Cheryl's help, and traded a Buizel for Charap the Chatot in Eterna City.
  • Charap quickly went over the L20 obeying level cap, but I managed to defeat Gardenia regardless with her Chatter attack.
  • Defeated Team Galactic and Jupiter in the TG Eterna Building.
  • Went down Cycling Road and through Mt. Coronet to Hearthome City, where I picked up Kuro the Eevee.
  • After a ton of Biking around, Wayward Cave, and fighting trainers I skipped to get to Hearthome, Kuro evolved into Umbreon!
  • While challenging the gym, Grumpy also evolved into Snorlax!
  • Challenged Fantina and won without much trouble, Charap is really powerful with Chatter right now.
  • Defeated Barry then went to Solaceon Town, where I caught Evil Eye the Duskull in the Lost Tower.
  • Trained him up to match my team at L30, then continued on to Veilstone City.
  • Took on the gym, and after Evil Eye defeated Maylene's first two Pokemon, Kuro took down Lucario with Dig.
  • I am saved on Route 214, looking for a Houndour.

Gray for FireRed is now over with. Hacked in a Magnemite in the beginning and caught a Rhyhorn later on. I just stuck with those two, they were a pretty good combo, and I didn't run into any problems. I thought Bruno was going to be disastrous, but he was actually pretty easy. The Champion was a complete joke, the only problem I encountered was Exeggutor. I have a video of the fight here:

  • Killed Giratina as well, then popped back into the real world.

  • Aaron was not too difficult, Charap was able to easily take down Heracross who was the main issue there. A team effort all around.
  • Bertha was defeated by a team effort as well.

Alright, just defeated Red on Crystal for my Gray challenge. He was pretty tough, I had to stall some of his Pokémon out of some moves before I could do anything against them. It was a team effort, but no one really stood out that much. I wish I would have used Steelix, but I can only blame myself for not making sure that I could evolve it before actually starting the game. Onix wasn't bad, but I feel like that extra power and new type really could have helped sometimes. Oh well, I tried to make the best of the situation, and it didn't turn out all that bad.

Start of Ultimate Monocolor Challenge (Green).

Well I'm playing a rock mono with Black 2 right now, so until I'm done with that run, I decided to start my Green ultimate on FireRed.

Update #1 on FireRed (Final).

Name: Green
Rival: Blue
Starter: Bulbasaur
  • Started with Bruteroot the Bulbasaur and swept the first three gym easily, evolving after Brock and just before the SS Anne.
  • Picked up Reaper the Scyther at the Game Corner, and the duo easily took down the rest of the gyms.
  • Took on the Elite Four after some moveset finalizing and a few Rare Candies to get them both to L64.
  • Lance was the only real tough battle, as we didn't have any real strong attacks for his dragons.
  • Finally I challenged the Champion, Blue. Here's a video of the battle.
