X Grass Monotype Update #1
Get Chespin. Name him Chestnut. Beat Viola with Rollout. Chestnut evolved to Quilladin Beat Sycamore, get Bulbasaur, name him Root. Root evolved to Ivysaur. Get Skiddo, name him Aries. Beat Snorlax and about ready to go onto Route 7 Hate the fact that the gap between Viola and Grant is big. Team Flare gave me trouble in Glittering Cave because there are fire, flying, and poison types around. Sleep Powder/Leech Seed was wonderful against Grant. All I had was Razor Leaf and Vine Whip. They are both physical moves trying to hit rock types. *sigh* Grant actually took two tries Badges 2/8 Current Team: Spoiler:

I've recently started getting bored with playing through Pokemon games and beating them easily. So I've been looking after different things I can do to make them harder and more fun to play. I've decided to try doing a monotype challenge of one of my favorite games: Soulsilver. My type will be ground.
So far I've gotten down to Azalea Town My Badges - 0/16 My Team: Geodude. Lvl 15 Onix. Lvl 14 Wooper. Lvl 9 |
Mistyped on the current amount of badges it should be.

Job's done. Lucario turned into a bit of a body to throw at people while I healed Infernape/Gallade once he got underleveled around gym 8, but he was fun while he lasted.

Ultimate Bug Monotype Challenge
Game: SoulSilver Badges: 16 Alright, so after defeating the E4 and the Champion, I trained for a while, then moved on to Kanto. The gym leaders there are always so... Not necessarily easy, especially with a mono Bug-team, but you get through them pretty fast. Heracross and Yanmega are seriousy proving themselves as the powerhouses of the team. Parasect is surprisingly useful, and Forretress is just impossible to take down. Except for anything with a Fire-type move. Beedrill so far mainly functions as a scout, thanks to U-Turn. Poison Jab isn't exactly vital in this gen. Ledian is proving itself time and time again to be useful. Maybe it's partly due to my exceptionally low expectations, but she hits harder than I expect her to almost every time. Still pretty easy to take down, though, but with a Sp. Attack stat of something in the 110s just above level 50, it's surprisingly close to being as high as possible with a good nature, max EVs and IVs and whatnot. So I'm guessing it has good IVs, because I haven't really EV trained. Anyway, I'm standing just outside Mt. Silver now. I need to train for a while and update some movesets before challenging Red. Here's my team: http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/9/90/Spr_4h_214_f.png Heracross, lv. 60 @ Destiny Knot Female // Jolly // Swarm - Rock Tomb - Close Combat - Megahorn - Earthquake http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/0/06/Spr_4p_469.png Yanmega, lv. 57 @ Choice Specs Male // Timid // Tinted Lens - Bug Buzz - Shadow Ball - Psychic - Air Slash http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/1/1e/Spr_4h_015.png Beedrill, lv. 60 @ Amulet Coin Male // Adamant // Swarm - U-turn - Toxic Spikes - Thief - Poison Jab http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/b/b0/Spr_4h_205.png Forretress, lv. 57 @ Leftovers Female // Careful // Sturdy - Bug Bite - Dig - Stealth Rock - Rock Slide http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/f/f2/Spr_4h_166_f.png Ledian, lv. 57 @ Wide Lens Female // Modest // Swarm - Bug Buzz - Focus Blast - Reflect - Roost http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/f/f2/Spr_4h_047.png Parasect, lv. 58 @ Miracle Seed Male // Impish // Dry Skin - Return - Spore - Giga Drain - X-Scissor |

This part was a bit rough. I get my last two party members Oak the Trevenant and Pineapple the Ludicolo. With Frost Cavern, the rival fight, and Olympia's Sigiliph the team took a beating. Not looking forward to the rest of the Team Flare stuff, Lysandre, and Wulfric.

Ultimate Grass Monotype Challenge
Diamond, FireRed, StormSilver (11/16), Emerald, Black 2 (Replaces White 2, See bottom of post), Y You know what is the best thing ever? Your 3DS dying during the Champion fight. And it's not even the Cynthia fight for once, because let's be honest, everyone's DS died fighting Cynthia. Everyone. I'll update this post with the final team once I beat Diantha and AZ. UPDATE: Fin. Y Important Events: Spoiler:
FINAL TEAM: http://www.pkparaiso.com/imagenes/xy/sprites/animados/chesnaught.gif Chestnut (Chesnaught) Lv63 @ Leftovers Female | Gentle (SpDef>Def) | Overgrow - Wood Hammer - Leech Seed - Spiky Shield - Hammer Arm TANKY TANK TANK TANK TANK. I don't think Chesnaught fainted once after evolving, especially not once I set up my final moves. Leech Seed and Lefties with Spiky Shield is OP. Always came through when I needed her to. A huge asset to this team. http://www.pkparaiso.com/imagenes/xy/sprites/animados/gogoat.gif Walnut (Gogoat) Lv64 @ Earth Plate Male | Lonley (Atk>Def) | Sap Sipper - Horn Leech - Bulk Up - Earthquake - Milk Drink Oh my. Literally nothing the E4 has can beat this thing. So much fun to have around, just for big hits whenever I needed them. http://www.pkparaiso.com/imagenes/xy/sprites/animados/roserade-f.gif Flora (Roserade) Lv65 @ Rose Incense Female | Bold (Def>Atk) | Poison Point - Sludge Bomb - Grassy Terrain - Dazzling Gleam - Giga Drain Dazzling Gleam saved my a** more times than I can remember, and Grassy Terrain was nice for setting up. I've talked about Roserade plenty before, so I'll leave it be for now. http://www.pkparaiso.com/imagenes/xy/sprites/animados/ferrothorn.gif Pecan (Ferrothorn) Lv63 @ Amulet Coin Male | Brave (Atk>Spd) | Iron Barbs - Payback - Power Whip - Curse - Gyro Ball I used Pekin's set minus the helmet here, because it hits SO HARD. He often turned into a liability on routes due to his low Speed, but showed up in major battles, just like about every Steel type I have used. http://www.pkparaiso.com/imagenes/xy/sprites/animados/ludicolo-f.gif Pistachio (Ludicolo) Lv65 @ Damp Rock Female | Bold (Def>Atk) | Swift Swim - Ice Beam - Grass Knot - Surf - Rain Dance Rain sweeper. Done. Easy. Let's move on. http://www.pkparaiso.com/imagenes/xy/sprites/animados/abomasnow-f.gif Hazelnut (Abomasnow) Lv53 @ Abomasite Female | Lonley (Atk>Def) | Snow Warning - Blizzard - Ice Shard - Shadow Ball - Wood Hammer Hits like a truck every time, and has the only Priority on this generally slow squad. Also, Ice coverage is awesome on Monograss. Ft. JOHN CENA the Hawlucha, Pistachio II the Lombre, and Nuzleaf the Yveltal Out of Rotation: Yulyana the Pansage (Banished for being a bad pokemon) Cashew the Exeggutor Hazelnut the Venusaur IN OTHER NEWS I will be playing my hard copy of Black 2 rather than White 2, and it will run parallel to the remainder of the emulated games, StormSilver and Emerald. This change has been reflected in the header. I'd load it up right now, but needs moar Mario Tennis. |
