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.

I'm not really sure how I'm gonna get genesect, but I guess I'll replace my starter with it since it's an event only mon anyway...
Or maybe not, I don't know. Can't get cover fossil till post game, and none of mine are available before third gym. Do I hack tirtouga and genesect in or what?
