I have a question. Am I able to trade to evolve my Kadabra, then instantly take it back and have an Alakazam? Or am I forced to continue with the Kadabra?

Candy April 5th, 2014 6:28 PM

Oh! Oh! I need a challenge to play a 3rd gen game. This seems interesting! :D

Name: Illusione-Tempus
Game: Sapphire
Pokemon Team:
#1 26+6+96 = #128 aka. Whiscash
#2 26*3 = #78 aka. Electrike (will evolve into Manectric)
#3 6*3^2 = #54 aka. Azurill (will evolve into Azumarill... plus, I have to breed, and I don't like that D: )
#4 Fire. Considering Hoenn only has 5 Fire type families... nah, Ninetales.
#5 Gray. Skarmory. P:
#6 Something from Route 106.

I'll probably have to hack my game to give myself one of them as my starter, considering I can't catch anything before the 1st gym. And knowing my luck the first Pokemon that I'll get in Route 106 will be a Magikarp, so I'll probably not get anyone useful in battle until before the 3rd gym.

Update #1

Spoiler:
http://i.imgur.com/Po7oAXf.png
Began my journey on 06/04/2014

http://i.imgur.com/inSTMBY.png
I decided to go with the Pokemon that I will last encounter during the whole course of the game as my starter. Editted the other starter choices as well actually, but I decided to go with Vulpix.

http://i.imgur.com/uVUZ1GG.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/ZFzJ1Tu.png
And of course he had to be a male... Which is bad, cause I had no idea what to nickname. Ended up with a Persona reference.

http://i.imgur.com/WDbE6CU.png
See what I did here? I changed my rival's Pokemon as well! Hah! Marill took a lot of Embers to fall. At least it hasn't learn Water Gun. .w."

And the only reason I made him got a Marill is so that it will evolve when I challenge him the next time. YOU DON'T WANT YOUR RIVAL STUCK WITH AN AZURILL, DO YOU? Not me. P:

http://i.imgur.com/Cu27cji.png
Helped a certain boy catch his first Pokemon.

http://i.imgur.com/LAwzWZb.png
Caught a Zigzagoon as my Pickup Slave as well as a Cut slave and other HMs if necessary. P:

http://i.imgur.com/quy628U.png
Realizing that I'll probably lose to Roxanne, I caught a Shroomish as a temporary party member 'til I get my 2nd Pokemon at Dewford.

http://i.imgur.com/EnnJe3E.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/MjriUxn.png
Okay, I admit. I couldn't resist catching one whenever one appears in any of my games. So hence this random Skitty. At least I got something from her.

http://i.imgur.com/MQlpxmX.png
Hermit has obtained a cool new move: Will o Wisp! I guess Temporary the Shroomish won't be needed.

http://i.imgur.com/OgeL0Ur.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/XHoYV5e.png
And I was right! Will o Wisp has helped Hermit survive those pesky Rock Tombs that she pulled, earning the Stone Badge from Roxanne!

http://i.imgur.com/iRGFGrr.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/F42DTog.png
We have began our "deliver the goods and the letter" sidequest!

On a side note: Temporary has degraded into a status inducer in case I want to catch a new Pokemon.

http://i.imgur.com/3iDw0Vr.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/RzWdeFh.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/yBTwDX0.png
Out of the 30% of fishing out a Tentacool, I actually found one in my first encounter! I was worried I'll end up with a Magikarp and have to grind so much to evolve it.

And so I return to Route 104 to grind with my new partner: Medusa the Tentacool!

Notes:
1) After going through the game intro and exiting Santalune Forest, I swapped two throw-away Pokemon for eggs that I bred a while back. Used my Froakie to get my Noibat and Lilipup to level 3 each before banking Froakie and training both Pokemon to level 7.

2) Defeated the trainers East of town to get Noibat to level 11 and beat the first gym.

3) Went, as fast as possible, through all of the story until I was at Route 7 with the Pokeflute.

4) First encounter on Route 7 was a Ducklett; which I caught. I wasn't terribly happy at first, but then I realized I need a Water-type (and she's too cute to stay mad at, amirite?), so Natalie was a God send.

5) Ran around in the grass between Route 7 and the second gym until I found a Croagunk. It had Dry Skin (which I was hoping for) and a +Atk nature.

6) Beat the second gym and proceeded North. Went through the Geosenge story and finally left town to the East.

7) Used some Honey until I was able to catch my Nidoran(F). Put her in front of the party for some "old school" switch training (since I'm not using EXP SHARE).

8) Made it through the Reflecting Cave (thank goodness this wasn't a Nuzlocke) and did the Mega Evolution Guru story.

9) Beat the third gym and saved at the Tower of Mastery (I'll keep playing, but that's enough update for one day).

-- Update #2 --

10) Got the Mega Stone/Bracelet and then proceeded to the Skiddo Ranch.

11) Fought all the trainers in Azure Bay and collected the mega stone for Ampharos.

12) Beat the 4th gym (really easy with all of my Flying-type and Poison-type attacks).

13) Saved the Kalos Power Plant. Croagunk is a terrible lead against Dugtrio w/ Arena Trap (just sayin').

14) Went to Lumiose City and went to the 5th gym; Realized I was terribly under-leveled.

15-A) Raised some levels back around the Power Plant, but decided to grind the trainers in the gym instead. Answered incorrectly on purpose to fight more of them. Ended up pulling Charmander out of my box (since I looked up Fire-type Pokemon and saw there weren't that many in the whole Pokemon Universe) and grinded him up a lot of levels in various locations.

15-B) Traded my Noibat between my X & Y cartridges, so I could teach him some special attacks... even that doesn't help my little friend. Game Freak nerfed Noibat's stat pool :(

16) Came back to the gym when Charmeleon was in the low 30s and fought a few more trainers. Had a bad time, so when I got to the gym leader I left to train him to be a Charizard. Came back and smoked the gym leader with Charizard. Was actually taken out by his Heliolisk, but managed to KO it with Drought damage :)

17) Now on Route 14 and have my full team of Birthday Challenge Pokemon.

Update #2

Spoiler:
After grinding Medusa (and the Slave Zigzagoon to evolve so it can learn Strength) to level 16, I decided to challenge Brawly

http://i.imgur.com/XKbOhtm.png
Missed screenshot, but I managed to defeat Brawly after inducing Burn to everything and just Roaring the heck out of it so his Bulk Ups don't stack. Seriously. A move that raises Atk and Def in a generation where I can't differentiate between Special and Physical types is driving me nuts.

http://i.imgur.com/VpEfK9L.png
Temporary has degraded into an HM slave as well! Poor little fella.

And so we enter the Granite Cave. Here I'm hoping to score an Abra just because it's rare. Yeah, I'm that type of person.

http://i.imgur.com/jvUph8M.png
Maybe this is a bad choice for me (since Supersonic has a measly 55 accuracy. HOW DO ZUBATS DO IT?), but it's not like I need confusion after I reduced their attack stat. :/

http://i.imgur.com/ulsTKJp.png
Reached Steven after nearly having Medusa killed because of the Sableyes. Handed him the letter, providing me access to Slateport.

http://i.imgur.com/2cG4LpQ.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/SSVN1pX.png
Reached Slateport. I immediately went up to Route 110 to catch an Electrike. Not even sure what this name means.

http://i.imgur.com/WDNoK8y.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/NMJURmc.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/Mew2bQ5.png
Went back to Slateport. Handed him the Devon Goods. Maybe I'll backtrack for the Exp. Share, but nah. The traditional way is good too.

http://i.imgur.com/piy4XCa.png
Encountered Brendan on my way to Mauville. Apparently he traded away his Marill to nab a Marshtomp. Dang, now all three of my party are weak to its Ground-type moves. Good thing I used the burn and confuse strategy. It was a fight I barely could've won (because his Shroomish paralyzed everyone >_>).

http://i.imgur.com/C5ClDVj.png
Picked up the Bike. I'll probably cruise the Cycling Road for some exp. later.

http://i.imgur.com/U6ytLMe.png
Cleared my way into Mauville Gym first. Rakurai did everything himself. :3

http://i.imgur.com/X1ncoW3.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/50FElQP.png
At route 117 I went and caught my 4th member: Marill. I know my challenge results mentions Azurill instead, but what were you expecting?

http://i.imgur.com/cXVFiBA.png
And a mere 5 levels later, he evolved into Azumarill. Well, that was fast

Currently going to go up against Wattson. But first... I think I should grind again. That Self-destructing Voltorb is ruining everything. >_>

Notes:
1) Breezed through Route 14, Lost Hotel, and Route 16.
2) Evolved Croagunk into Toxicroak while battling the gym trainers. Decided to evolve Nidorina with my Moon Stone before taking on the gym leader, since Nidorina wasn't dishing out any damage (and was barely taking the Fairy-type hits, even though resisted).
3) Sissy took out the gym leader's first Pokemon, then got revenge-killed by her Mr. Mime. Toxicroak revenge killed Mr. Mime with a neutral-effective Sucker Punch. Smaug finished the rest of her Pokemon quite easily (kill them with FIRE!!).
4) Went to the Pokeball Factory to kick out the Team Flare goons.
5) Taught Smaug some better moves at the Move Relearner.
6) Saved on the bridge leading to Frost Cavern.

Noibat continues to be dead-weight (even with Draco Meteor), but at least he is closer to evolving now (he gets to eat all of the Rare Candy that I find).

Notes:
Update #4
1) Went through the Frost Cavern and gained some levels.
2) Got to the next town and defeated my rival and started the gym.

4) Defeated the gym leader using Noivern, Buddy, and Smaug.
5) Got the Bat Signal to take on Team Flare, which was fitting since I was headed to the Name Rater.
6) Changed Lil' Wayne's name to TheGDBatman!
7) Destroyed the Lysandre Labs quite easily.
8) Flew to the "Secret" HQ for Team Flare and beat Lysandre after some easy double battles.
9) Went to Move Relearner (after farming some Heart Scale off of Luvdisc) and taught Buddy the move Fire Fang.
10) Flew back to the town I previously left and saved the game.

Update #5
1) Breezed through Terminus Cave and Route 19.
2) Worked my way through Route 20, and the Pokemon Village so I could challenge Wulfric.
3) Beat the eighth gym using Chops, Smaug, and Buddy.
4) Took on Victory Road and got to the high 50s on all of my Pokemon.
5) Training up to level 60-62 before I challenge the Elite Four and Diantha.

2) Trained up my Pokemon to level 65-67 (going to list the newest stats and moves above).
3) Headed back into the Pokemon League for another crack at it.

3) Malva - Talonflame was the only real threat; Took it out with Buddy (after a potion war with Malva). Used Natalie, Buddy, and Sissy.
4) Siebold - No real threats at all. Used Smaug to 1-shot everything with Solar Beam except for Gyarados, which I used Buddy for.
5) Drasna - Took out Dragalge with Buddy and Play Rough/Ice Fang follow up. Tried to switch into Buddy (after swapping out into Chops on the free switch), but Druddigon kept using Dragon Tail to knock him back into the ball. Finally gave up when he knocked Buddy back and TheGDBatman! came out. Used Draco Meteor to 1-shot. Natalie destroyed Altaria with a single Ice Beam attack. Used Buddy to Play Rouch/Ice Fang on her Noivern (could have stayed in with Natalie, but was trying to gain some levels on the other Pokemon in preparation for Diantha).
6) Diantha:

Hawlucha - Was able to 1-shot Hawlucha with a Play Rough from Buddy.
Aurorus - Went into Chops and used Swords Dance while she set up a Reflect. Used Brick Break to 1-shot.
Tyrantrum - Switched into TheGDBatman! and took it out with a Draco Meteor.
Goodra - Went into Sissy and took Goodra out with two Poison Jab attacks (with a tick of help from poisoning it on the first attack).
Gourgeist - Went into Natalie and destroyed Gourgeist with a single Air Slash.
Mega Gardevoir - Remembering she has Thunder, I went into Smaug and mega-evolved. Got a flinch with Air Slash (which I was hoping for, so she couldn't Full Restore) and then took out Mega Gardevoir with a follow-up Blast Burn attack!

7) AZ - Beat him easily... not sure why he's even part of challenges for X/Y.

3: 12*5=60 => Darumaka/Darmanitan

6: Whatever I find on route 12

Chevitile June 28th, 2014 1:28 PM

Fiiiiiinally I'm done with Expert Emerald! Frankly, nothing too exciting happened, so I won't bother with a detailed update. Since it is a hack, the increase in difficulty definitely left its marks, as I had to grind up my team at several points in the game (which my final play time might make obvious...). Rapidash with Drought was undoubtedly one of the MVP's, and Bellossom also did very well. Flygon was a slight disappointment, mainly because of the physical/special split in Gen 3. I can definitely recommend this hack though, it was great fun playing it. Also, I tried to record the champion battle, but the file got corrupted.

My next game will be a Sinnoh hack. I'm thinking either Bloody Platinum, Platinum Enhanced Edition or Flawless Platinum. My team will be as follows:
Spoiler:
1. 3 + 18 + 97 = 118, which is Quagsire.
2. 18 * 4 = 72, Misdreavus -> Mismagius.
3. 3 * 4 * 4 = 48, giving me Wurmple. Not sure what I'll evolve it into, but it's leaning towards Dustox.
4. Don't know what's available in the hacks.
5. Same here. I'll have to look into it.
6. Something on Route 203.


I suppose I'll just post again...

My game turned out to be Sol Platinum, so none of the ones I originally planned.

♦ Started up the game, and chose Turtwig as my starter. I named it Grasstoise, because I originally thought about keeping it (since I get to pick a Grass Pokémon), but I eventually decided against it.
♦ Beat up my rival and battled some trainers up to Jubilife, after having received the Pokédex and Poké Balls.
♦ Went to the Trainer's School, and then got a Pokétch.
♦ Challenged my rival on Route 203. He was very tough, but Grasstoise eventually brought him down.
♦ My first official team member, and encounter on Route 203, was a Magby. I named it Gunther.
♦ Used him for a lot of the remaining trainer battles.
♦ Against the gym, I had to grind him up to Lv 20 in order to win. Low Kick was of great assistance.
♦ Moved on to Eterna, beating up some Galactic Grunts in the process. Also infiltrated the HQ, where Gunther made great use of Will-O-Wisp against Mars.
♦ I tried getting a Wurmple to appear from a Honey Tree for several days, until I just assumed they weren't found there.
♦ Went up to Eterna Forest, where I encountered a Dustox instead. Since it was my planned evolution for Wurmple, I decided to catch that instead.
♦ Named it VacuumLuna, and then made it out of the Forest.
♦ Battled Gardenia, where VacuumLuna was great with Nasty Plot and Gust/Psybeam. Gunther had to help out too, though.
♦ I had received Cut from Cynthia, so I decided to go to the Old Chateau and see if any Misdreavus were there.
♦ As it turns out, they were! I found one right away, and caught it. Named it MissMarple.
♦ Trained her up a bit in the Galactic HQ in Eterna City. Eventually faced Jupiter, who was quite difficult, but went down in the end. I believe Gunther evolved after the battle, or he already had shortly before. It was around this point, anyway.
♦ Got a Bicycle, and used it to continue south on Cycling Road.
♦ Explored the route under it for a little bit, hoping to find a Seedot - the Pokémon I chose for my Grass-type. I didn't have any luck, though.
♦ Continued east to Hearthome City through Mt. Coronet, avoiding as many trainers as possible. I was already overlevelled.
♦ Made it there, and challenged Fantina after having met her in the Super Contest Hall. She was not a huge threat, thanks to MissMarple and Gunther's Faint Attack.
♦ Earned my badge, and then moved on to Solaceon. Met my rival along the way, whom I defeated.
♦ Avoided as many trainers as possible on my way to Solaceon, as well.
♦ Went north to find a Seedot, which I did! Caught one and named it Gandalf.
♦ Trained him up on all the trainers I had previously avoided. He evolved after only one level into a Nuzleaf.
♦ Went through the Lost Tower, and then trekked to Veilstone.
♦ Took on the gym, mainly with VacuumLuna, but everyone except for Gandalf played a role here.
♦ Maylene also required a team effort, but wasn't too hard to beat.
♦ Currently saved in the gym, about to exit.

I just used Action Replay to get Houndour and Spheal. They are lv. 1, I'm in Sprout Tower, and I cannot use them until I have the 3rd gym badge. I can only get Houndour in Kanto and Spheal is in the safari zone but only under certain conditions.
Update: I defeated the elite four with: Blaze the Typhlosion, Pixel the Furret, Crobatman the Crobat, Flame the Houndoom, and Wallord the Wailren. My journey didn't stop there however and so I headed to Kanto. I'm on Cinnabar but only defeated Surge. i'll go back and fight the gym leaders after i do everything else.

Another Update: I did it. i completed the challenge. i defeated red with a team of lv. 70s and it took a lot of healing.

UPDATE!
My Route 2 'mon was a Pidgey! Also, I checked my Pokemon Bank and, as it turned out, I had a freshly-hatched Voltorb in there, so I transferred it and added it to my team when I got to Santalune. :)

Second and final update for Sol Platinum:

♦ Battled Maylene and won, and then made my way down to Pastoria City after taking care of the Galactic Grunts. Once there, I caught a Quagsire in the Great Marsh, and then bred it to get a Wooper. Named it Teracua.
♦ Trained Teracua up a bit, and then challenged the gym. Wake was hard, but he was eventually brought down by the entire team.
♦ Chased the Galactic Grunt and beat him up, then obtained the SecretPotion from Cynthia. Used it on the Psyducks on the route up towards Celestic Town, and then made my way there.
♦ Battled Cyrus in the cave, and then obtained the HM for Surf. Did some Surf sidequests, and then made my way to Canalave City. Once there, I went to Iron Island to get the Strength HM, and then I went back and easily defeated Byron.
♦ Received word from Prof. Rowan about Galactic's meddling, so I went to two lakes and took care of some business.
♦ Around this point, I believe I added a Mareep as my team member, for my yellow Pokémon. My original plan was a Dunsparce, but as I couldn't find it anywhere, I decided on this instead. I named her Elempera and trained her up to be on par with the rest of the team.
♦ Reached Snowpoint City and battled Candice, who was also taken down easily.
♦ Made my way to the lake using Rock Climb. Then, I raided Galactic's HQ in Veilstone, followed by a trekk to the summit of Mt. Coronet.
♦ In the Distortion World, I battled Cyrus, who was really tough. After defeating him and Giratina, I continued towards Sunyshore City. On the route just west of it, I trained my team up to Lv 70.
♦ Took on the Sunyshore gym using mostly Teracua. Volkner knew how to put up a fight, but was eventually brought down. After this, I got the Waterfall HM from Jasmine, and made my way up to Victory Road.
♦ Once through it, I battled my rival one final time at the Pokémon League, and then trained my team up to Lv 75, followed by some moveset finalizing and Rare Candy-giving. Then, I took on the league!
♦ Aaron wasn't too difficult, Gunther could take care of most of the work.
♦ Bertha was quite tough, but was eventually brought down by most of my team members.
♦ Flint had some fatal combos (SolarBeam + Power Herb) to counter Teracua, but I could also defeat him with the help of MissMarple, among others.
♦ Lucian was also tough, but he had few counters for MissMarple. Gandalf also helped here.
♦ Last up was the champion, Cynthia, who had a powerful team. However, I was able to bring her down and become the champion.

The creator has inserted different sprites for most Pokémon, which is why they are different from that of regular Platinum.

Elempera the Ampharos, Lv 76 (♀)
Item: Rock Incense
Thunderbolt, Signal Beam, Thunder Wave, Power Gem

I really, really enjoyed using Shiftry in this hack. It went miles over my expectations, and I was gladly surprised! I'll definitely be using it in OR/AS. I had never used a Dustox before this, and that was less of a joyride. It really only became useful if it could set up Nasty Plot, and those times were few as it isn't very bulky. Nevertheless, it was fun to use.

My next game will be Blaze Black 2, and as for my team:
Spoiler:

I'll be going after the New Unova Pokédex, as I am playing a hack of the sequel.
1. 18 + 3 + 97 = 118, which is Scrafty in the New Unova Pokédex.
2. 18 * 5 = 90, which is Clefable.
3. 3 * 5 * 5 = 75, which is Conkeldurr.
4. For my Grass-type, I will possibly be picking Serperior.
5. I might choose Manectric for my Yellow Pokémon.
6. Something on Route 3.

Enigma August 16th, 2014 3:22 AM

Continuing (and finishing) my challenge.
Spoiler:
  • Proceeded onward, defeating both Team Aqua and Team Magma at their respective locations.
  • While battling against Team Magma, Trapinch evolved into Vibrava.
  • After reaching Mossdeep, I got the Super Rod and back-tracked to Route 105, where I captured a Wailmer. (encountered via super rod, first encounter)
  • After going through the entire Mossdeep gym, I saved the gym leaders for later, and raised my team to level 40. This caused three evolutions; Grovyle to Sceptile, Wailmer to Wailord, and Loudred to Exploud.
  • Liza & Tate were pretty easy after I raised my team up.
  • Defeated Team Magma, again.
  • Defeated Team Aqua, again.
  • After Rayquaza broke up Kyogre and Groudon, I went inside the Sootopolis Gym and defeated everyone but Juan. I trained a bit to level my whole team to 45, and this caused my Vibrava to evolve into Flygon.
  • Defeated Juan.
  • Went to the Pokemon League, trained my team up to 50.
  • Before proceeding, I went to the Game Corner and picked up Flamethrower and Ice Beam. I also went to Fiery Path and got Toxic, then Meteor Falls for Dragon Claw.
  • Defeated the E4 and the Champion pretty easily.

2. #19 Rattata :| seriously, him again
3. #1 Bulabasaur :) ok, he's not bad, could be worse
4. I'll choose Sneasle as there arn't that many good ice types i haven't used in gen 3
5. Umbreon, my second favorite eeveelution
6. the first encounter on Route 1. Update: Thank goodness the first encounter after i got pokeballs was a pidgey.

I'm basically signing up for a second run. As much as i don't like raticate, i kinda want my last poke to be rattata just because but i could use a flying type and pidgy's not bad.

bewbs August 19th, 2014 11:04 AM

Well gave this challenge a well good run through. It wasn't so bad playing it in french as it made it more challenging/interesting. Some of the pokemon have pretty good names in french. There were lots of hard times, but this was a pretty good challenge. I never changed my team and didn't use my own HM slave. So I'll edit this post and make a breakthrough of my story.

This challenge is just what I'm looking for - a way of playing through the pokemon regions again with some new mons I probably wouldn't normally pick. I'll be trying this out in an ultimate format, that is completing the challenge once in every canon region so far starting with Hoenn (when I get the game on friday). For my first game of the challenge my sign up is below:

My date of birth is 19/02/96 and I will be playing through generation 3 therefore my team will be:

1. #117 - The Vibrava Line
2. #57 - The Geodude Line
3. #18 - The Dustox Line
6. Ice - The Walrein Line
5. Black - The Dusclops Line
6. The first pokemon on route 2

All pokemon I have never used before just as long as I don't get zigzagoon on route 2 I'm really happy with how its looking at the moment :)

Omega Ruby date of birth challenge - Update 2

Same as before each spoiler tag covers a gym

Current Team:
Spoiler:
Athena the Gardevoir (Female; lvl 36; Trace; Draining Kiss, Psychic, Magical Leaf, Calm Mind)

Fluster the Dustox (Male; lvl 36; Shield Dust; Venoshock, Bug Buzz, Toxic, Bug Bite)

Atlas the Graveller (Male; lvl 37; Sturdy; Smack Down, Rock Blast, Rock Polish, Bulldoze)

Blitz the Trapinch (Female; lvl 22; Arena Trap; Sand Tomb, Rock Slide, Dig, Crunch)


Spoiler:

-Trained Trapinch a bit to get her to a usable level
-she evolved into Vibrava
-made my way though Rusturf tunnel
-cycled back to Petalburg city and healed up at the center
-entered the gym
-backtracked to battle all of the trainers
-took on my dad for the fifth badge

Battle with Norman:
To start with I was a little uncertain about this battle due to the normal typing giving me no outright advantage but after a couple of calm minds they all fell to Athena's STAB psychic. The only real problem was the second slaking who managed to survive the first attack and almost take her down but not quite allowing me to wipe it with a critical hit straight after Norman used his heal.



Spoiler:

-got annoyed having to babysit Wally again
-made my way back to Littleroot town
-got the amulet coin from mum
-returned to Mauville city
-left via route 118
-met up with Steven
-made friends with Latios
-received the mega bracelet from Steven
-returned to route 118
-headed north to route 119
-caught 2 hm-slaves (Carvanha and Tropius)
-realized having 2 hm-slaves is going to be really annoying when I get to Mt-Pyre

-got to the Weather Institute
-beat some team magma members
-Atlas learnt Earthquake
-slept in the bed to heal up
-crossed the bridge
-bumped into May
-proceeded to wipe the floor with her Pokemon
-continued to Fortree City
-passed straight through to route 120
-caught up with Steven,again
-received the oculus rift Devon Scope

-returned to the city
-healed at the Pokemon Center
-entered the gym
-solved my second favorite gym puzzle from the game
-Began the fight for the Sixth badge

Battle with Winona:
Good thing for me all Skarmory wanted to do was layer spikes for 3 turns allowing for Atlas to take charge. One rock polish made him the fastest thing in the room. A smack down set the Skarmory up (or should that be down) and a super effective earthquake finished the job. A single smack down each for her Swellow and Pelipper left just the Altaria flying around. The combo almost worked first time again apart from the hyper potion making it take 2 earthquakes rather than 1.



Spoiler:
-traveled east to route 122
-received TM99 Dazzling gleam an taught it to Athena over draining kiss
-continued to Lilycove City
-destroyed May and her team
-made my way to Mt Pyre
-caught my fifth team member:
Dusty the Duskull (Male; lvl 24; Levitate; Foresight, Astonish, Confuse Ray, Shadow Sneak)
-watched Maxie take the red orb
-received the blue orb

-flew to Slateport City
-beat the grunts as the submarine left
-used trainer's eyes to train Dusty to a reasonable level
-he evolved into Dusclops
-flew to Fallarbor Town
-tutored Dusty a new moveset (Ice punch, Shadow Punch, Thunder Punch, Fire Punch)

-flew back to Lilycove City
-entered the Team Magma Hideout
-found the Masterball
-used a single Rockslide to take out the horde battle
-fainted Courtney's Camerupt with an earthquake from Atlas
-left the hideout
-surfed to Mossdeep City
-healed at the center

-travelled north to shoal cave
-caught my final team member
Tusk the Sealeo (Male; lvl 34; Ice Body; Body Slam, Aurora Beam, Hail, Swagger)
-taught tusk Surf
-returned to Mossdeep City
-took on the seventh gym

Battle with Tate & Liza:
I led with Dusty and Athena due to their protection from psychic types so the biggest threat was going to be Solrock's sunny day flamethrower. They got the first part setup but with the damage output from a Shadow Punch and a Dazzling Gleam it was low enough for Dusty to take out. Lastly I focused my attention on their lunatone that had already setup a light screen and a calm mind. He tried a STAB psychic on Dusty but he just stood, took it and fought back with a powerful STAB punch of his own to claim the victory and the Mind Badge



Spoiler:

-received dive from my old friend Steven
-surfed to route 128
-entered the Seafloor Cavern

-found a post somewhere saying that new mega-stones had been unlocked
-soared to Verdanturf Town
-received the Gardevoirite from Wanda
-returned to Sootopolis' gym
-began my battle for the last badge

Battle with Wallace:
I decided to start the fight with Dusty to give him a bit more exp as I knew he could handle 4 of Wallace's pokemon with 1/2 thunder punches which he did but then the ground type Whiscash was sent out against me. At this point I decided to see what mega-gardevoir could do and in a turn knocked out the final pokemon with a Magical Leaf.



Current Team after eighth badge:

Fluster the Dustox (Male; lvl 64; Shield Dust; Venoshock, Bug Buzz, Toxic, Quiver Dance)

So, I started the game, confirming the hack works (playing VoltWhite 2) and picked Tepig due to my team having the most advantages against Samurott. I named it "Temporary" because that's what it is: temporary until I reach Floccesy Ranch. So I do, catching my first partner.

MAREEP GET! I named her Jasmine, and I went along and trained for a bit before taking out my rival, named "Trololo" as a reference to Kit's Nuzlocke, and rescuing the Herdier. After battling the two Schoolkids, Jasmine evolved into Flaaffy! I then ran back to Aspertia, defeated the Gym trainers, and challenged Cheren.

The Munchlax was just too much for Jasmine, and I lost. I rechallenged Cheren and beat Munchlax with Charge + ThunderShock spam. Cheren is defeated.

I then went down to Virbank, having a couple close calls in trainer battles. I withdrew Temporary to enable a double battle, and he gained EXP due to not fainting. Is this allowed? The only purpose was to enable that double battle, and I boxed him again immediately afterwards. This will be the only time this happens, because I get my next teammate at Castelia (And I'm looking forward to using Victini). I'm outside Virbank Complex right now, going to do that sidequest.

Ok, September 30th, 1991, playing AS...

1. 39+91 = 130, in New Hoenn that's Lunatone

2. 60, Golem, I'm sensing a theme here

3. 36, Breloom

4. Rock type of my choice (another one!) Aggron

5. Purple Pokemon of my choice. Starmie because why not

6. The first Pokemon found on the route that corresponds to the month you were born in. Route 109 so probably a Tentacruel

Just saying. 30*3 is 90, not 60. So you have to use Illumise, not Golem.
And for the third Pokemon, it would be 81, not 36, so it's Manectric. It's calculated by Month*GenerationGame Squared, so it's 9*3*3.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I know I signed up for this before on Crystal and Emerald, but forget those, I'll do it on Y instead.

Birthdate = 6/17/1988

1. 6+17+88=111 - Cyrogonal (Mountain Dex)
2. 17*3=51 - Chorphish (Crawdaunt) (Central Dex)
3. 6*3*3=54 - Steelix (Coastal Dex)
4. June=Fire - Houndoom
5. June=Gray - Magnezone
6. June=6 - Route 6

CasualGameFreak April 10th, 2015 8:19 PM

Gonna give another update now!

Spoiler:
So, I went into Virbank Complex and did the sidequest there. Took me two tries, because Jasmine suicided into Koffing's massive Defense stat, but still, I did it :). I then went and challenged Roxie. Oh yeah, this hack (VoltWhite 2) gives her a Trubbish. With NORMAL GEM EXPLOSION. GDI DRAY.

But, after TWELVE FLIPPING TRIES, Roxie is defeated.

I then sailed to Castelia after the Pokestar Studios thing, and immediately went west to Liberty Island. The location of Victini in this hack. After 2 tries (I had to soft reset due to accidentally fainting it because I mispredicted with Endure), Victini is caught. Named Victoria because victory.

After curbstomping Team Plasma in the sewers, I fought a ton of trainers to grind levels. I then challenged Burgh.

Aaand Scyther is OP. And so is Parasect. But on the fourth try, Burgh is defeated, and Jasmine evolves into Ampharos. Yeah, kinda overleveled...

Of note since is that Jasmine beat FOUR MONS with 12 HP while paralyzed. Sure, it was a random trainer on Route 4, but it was awesome and proved Jasmine as a total BAMF. Right now, I'm on Route 4, ready to finish cleaning up the route.

Would I be allowed Seaking, Butterfree etc??

I have a quick question regarding the challenge, for the 3rd pokemon in your team, I got bulbasaur and im playing a gen 2 game, so there is no way I can get a Bulbasaur, ... what should I do? I forgot to add, that since its a fangame there is no way I can trade for it.

Because the first three are directly calculable, I wrote a small program to look for cases where you'd get three of the same Pokemon. Some of the more interesting ones I found:

If you're born on January 3rd, 2005 and are playing RSE or ORAS, you're required to use three Swamperts.

If you were born on October 20th, 2010 and playing Gen II games, you have to use three Cleffa. I'm so sorry.

June 24th, 1966 gets you three Happiny if you're playing DPPt.

Oooooooh I like the idea behind this challenge! I will be giving this one a try.

Name: Rin_K-Rogue
Game: Emerald
Pokemon Team: My DOB is July 10th '96 so that gives me:
1. Sandslash
2. Kirlia (I will be choosing to evolve it)
3. Zubat (Again, I will be evolving it)
4. Magcargo
5. Going by Dex Colour, Armaldo is Grey, so I will be picking Armaldo
6. Route 107

I am very happy with this team. Alot of good mons here. When I catch the Ralts, I will have to use my starter to switch train it to level 6, seeing as it will only know growl upon capture.
