My team so far: Charizard: Lv 50 Gyarados: Lv 49 Pidgeot: Lv 45 Golbat: Lv 47 -I just wish he could evolve... D: Butterfree: Lv 48 Dragonair: Lv 50 |
Update time!

Ultimate Normal Monotype Challenge: White Version
5/8So, when I arrived in Driftveil city, I caught myself a Deerling as soon as I could, and when it wasn't male I couldn't call it Bambi. Went with Molly because I couldn't think of anything better. I was extremely disappointed that the one mon that should have given me some advantage over a Ground Type gym didn't know any Grass Type moves but Leech Seed. Regardless, the gym's regular trainers were pretty much pushovers, though I did have to heal a few times. Clay was a boss, as usual. Luckily, an uber with the wrong set isn't exactly an uber, so it could have been worse, but Excadrill was still painful, considering I didn't have much to deal with is Steel typing. Lucky for me, I have Super Fang. So all the defense in the world couldn't stop me. Badge get! Team: Spoiler:

So, just to make sure, the Ultimates are now only counting those who completed it within Gen VI standards, right? Because I have, and finished up the Ground Monotype with X before the previous thread was shut down.

Just beat the Champion! I didn't think it was too difficult once my Magikarp evolved. I might do another region later.
Here's my final team. Sorry about the thumbnail, I don't know how to put images in haha. |
Platinum Grass Monotype Update!
It's update time for me! °Picked Turtwig as my starter. °Got Budew as soon as I could- It destroyed Roark but it took forever to evolve because I forgot that it evolves only at day time .-. ° Got to Gardenia's gym (I mean my gym)... Destroyed her with Terry and same goes for Fantina. ° Took me about forever but I finally found Cherubi on one of the honey trees. Got eevee that evolved into leafeon. °Got to Safari Zone where I found my last two team members - Tropius and Carnivine. °Defeated Maylenne with Torterra that has Earthquake. °Defeated Crasher Wake - Thought that Gyarados will give me problems- turned out that Floatzel will give me the most trouble with it's annoying Ice fang .-. But I eventually defeated him.

I'm really interested in doing an ultimate Steel type challenge, but does that mean I skip Kanto, and start the challenge in Johto instead? Sorry, I'm new to this XD

Dark Monotype - SS
Time for an update! As soon as I finally managed to reach Kanto, my first objective was to catch a Houndour. Took about an hour for me to catch one since the little brats like to Roar. After that, it was slap on the Exp. Share and go beat the gym leaders! All eight gyms defeated easily thanks to wonderful type variety on my team but now I have to deal with Red, the utmost evil of all the trainers in gen 2. There really needs to be a better grinding spot other than round 2 of the E4 or outside Mt. Silver. Ugh. Looking forward to Lapras and Snorlax. (not) Current team: Spoiler:

Ultimate Steel Monotype Challenge: White Version 2

Hmm..well after some consideration, I'm gonna give a ground ultimate challenge a go.

I'm an hour into my challenge, so here's my first update!
-Received Bulbasaur from Professor Oak. -Lost horribly to Apple, my rival. -Delivered Oak's parcel, received Pokedex and Pokeballs. -Somehow managed to lose to a wild Pidgey. GG, Bulbasaur. -Then lost to a wild Spearow. WTF. -After grinding Bulbasaur up to level 11, I battled Apple on Route 22. I only was able to win because I used up the two potions that I had. -Got through Viridian Forest, battling bug catchers along the way. By the time I got to Pewter, Bulbasaur was level 14. -Immediately after arriving in Pewter City, I challenged Brock. Bulbasaur completely murdered his gym. -Bulbasaur evolved into Ivysaur right after I got my badge. -Continued onto Route 3, and lost miserably to Lass Janice. -_- -Caught Nidoran F on Route 3, and Zubat in Mt. Moon. Team Spoiler:

Well I think I should give an update on my progress in Firered.
-Picked up Bulbasaur from Professor Oak. -Delivered Oak's Parcel -Beat Gary a second time on route 22 -Went through Viridian Forest, and was ridiculously low on PP to the point I had to leech seed and wait patiently for them to faint while growling at them ._. -Went into Pewter sweeped Brock easily -Got the BoulderBadge -Immediantly after on the next route Bulbasaur evolved into Ivysaur -Caught a Nidoran(M) and immediantly boxed Ivysaur.

Pokémon Type: Fire Challenge Type: Ultimate Game(s): Red, Crystal, Emerald, Platinum, Black 2, Y Previous Progress: Yes In this Fire UMC, I've already beaten the first five games, and I'm currently on Pokémon Y. I also have a few other UMCs running, I would love it if you would add my progress in those challenges to this post, as well :) (PS. I completely missed the post where you asked for no further posts in the last thread - sorry about that!) Oh, and in my Grass UMC, I've beaten Ghetsis at the Plasma Castle, but previously I assumed that I had to go back to the league and beat Alder in order to complete the game in White. So I guess I've beaten the five first games for my Grass challenge, as well? Anyway, on to the update on the Fire challenge! Game: Y Type: Fire Badges: 1 After catching myself a Fletchling, I moved on to Santalune City, caught myself a Litleo and took on the gym leader - Fletchling made the battle a cakewalk, so not much interesting happened, really. Moving on to Lumiose City, I decided against going with Charmander, so I picked Bulbasaur and deposited the guy right away, the main reasons being that I used Mega Charizard Y in my very first playthrough of Y, and that mega evolution was banned in the previous thread - apparently it isn't in this one, is that right? Anyway, both Fennekin and Fletchling recently evolved, and I just made it to Camphrier Town - here's my team: Spoiler:

Just a small update!
-After catching Nidoran F and Zubat, I stayed back to train them up to Ivysaur's level. -Nidoran F evolved into Nidorina. -Made it through Mt. Moon with no problems at all. -Caught Ekans on Route 4. Team Spoiler:

Pretty big update this time!
-After catching Ekans, I headed back to Route 4 to grind, and immediately lost to a wild Spearow. -Realizing that grinding would be harder than I expected, I decided to use the switch out method and battle Apple. I managed to beat him, but I lost two Pokemon in the process. -I went back to Route 4, hoping that after gaining some experience, Ekans would now be strong enough to fight the wild Pokemon there. -I lost to a wild Rattata; Ekans was still too weak. I went to Nugget Bridge and challenged Bug Catcher Cale. -After beating him, I went AGAIN to Route 4, and finally, Ekans was able to take on the wild Pokemon there, albeit, with much difficulty. It got easier once Ekans hit level 13 and learned Bite, though. -During this time, I decided to evolve Nidorina into Nidoqueen. -After Ekans reached level 20, I headed back to Nugget Bridge and Route 25. -Zubat evolved into Golbat. -Ekans evolved into Arbok. -Got the SS Ticket and headed for Vermillion; I also battled all the trainers on Route 11. -Battled everyone in the SS Anne, and had absolutely no problems battling Apple this time. :) -I headed back to Cerulean and battled Misty, which was easy since I was over-leveled. -Immediately after beating Misty, I went back to Vermillion and challenged Lt. Surge, which was fairly easy with Nidoqueen. Team Spoiler:

I'm curious what you guys think. Should "Ultimate" remain in the title of the thread? I mean this thread is about Monotypes, not Ultimates, they are just one part of what you can do. I also had someone who mistakenly thought that it was a separate thread. So tell me what you think.

The reason it was called that in the first place was because this forum originally had individual monotype threads for each region (and I think Ultimate was its own thread too). When everything got combined into one thread, it became the "Ultimate Monotype Challenge" thread. Now, that being said, my vote is to keep it, but I wouldn't really care that much if it became the "Monotype Challenge" instead, although I like how having "Ultimate" in the title makes it moar epic. :D Now I am reminded that I still have yet to finish the postgame of my water mono on Black 2...erhem. |
An update on my firered challenge.
-Trained Nidoran(M) to level 18 outside Mt. Moon. Evolved into Nidorino -Went through Mt. Moon defeating the helpless lost people inside. -Found a Moon Stone, evolved Nidorino into Nidoking. -Defeated Team Rocket and taught Miguel a lesson in sharing. -Claimed the Helix Fossil -Went to Cerulean City -At this point as I was level 24, I thought I could handle the gym. After being decimated by Starmie I realised this wasn't going to be the case. -After thrashing/loading him with a Persim berry/scoring a critical hit. I managed to defeat Misty after four losses, scoring myself the Cascadabadge. I hate you Starmie, so, so, SO much. Team Spoiler:
