I've grown into challenges a lot recently, and with my holidays starting tomorrow I plan to get many done in the coming weeks. Love it :3

You've been learning from the master :) Also I too have never posted here despite completing over 80 odd challenges this year :X

I've tried to get more into the challenge groove (although I guess you can say I sorta am) what with college done for the semester, considering I haven't done much with Omega Ruby at the time. Once I finish my Chandelure challenge i'll figure out something else, maybe something to give me an excuse to play Alpha Sapphire, which I haven't touched since getting the games on release.

Necrum needs to do a massive update. Like, srsly.
(I guess I should run. Like, 5 seconds ago.)

My Hanukkah challenge on White 2 has caused me to ignore AlphaSapphire. ;o; Not that I am bored with AS, but I'm just trying to finish this challenge haha. I got a late start. :(

That being said, I got my Pokebank fixed finally!

I have the opposite problem Omega Ruby is cutting into my Hanukkah challenge, lol!

I had been feeling some nostalgia for gen V before I started my challenge, so I think that's helping too. But I'm missing AS so much. I wanna finish it before the year is over, but this CHALLENGE UGH. It's getting all my attention, haha. And when it's not that, I'm either at work or playing Smash.

Pendraflare December 21st, 2014 5:27 AM

I was actually feeling the reverse way - while trying to get into my Hanukkah challenge I instead went over to Omega Ruby to complete my Hoenn Pokédex, and now I should really be getting back over to the former. I'm at Undella Town and caught my last team member yesterday, but then yeah. Got 11 days left I think, but I think i'll be able to get this done before then.

So I've come up with a fun new way to play Pokemon. Basically, you open 2 instances of an emulator and set the controls so that one emulator is run off of your left hand, and the other is run off of your right hand. Twice the emulators = twice the challenges!

I've done that before in order to trade with myself on FR/LG xD was fun, but a bit confusing.

Anyways ^-^ Hai guys! I know I've been pretty much invisible on PC this year, but I have been really busy and caught up in not so nice stuff. However, things are finally settling so, starting January, I will be making a return to PC and to my beloved challenges. So I am now scraping all of my previous sign-ups and in progress challenges and starting over in January ^-^

I can't wait to be back *-*

Oh and Happy Holidays! ^-^

IIIIIIIIIIIIIII'MMMMMMMMMMM DREAMING OF A WHIIIIIIIIIIIIITE…CHRISTMAS…

But may I ask, you're not actually doing all these in one sitting each, are you? I'd guess they're things you'll finish but I'd be hard-pressed to do one in a day, except maybe in XY or Gen V.

What do you mean am I doing these in one sitting? Do you mean am I doing them start to finish without stopping?

If so then for the Water mono i did over the course of a day, the Delibird solo I did up until the first gym yesterday and then did the rest all in one go today and the Fire was done all in one go without me stopping and doing something else (I did have breaks for food, drink and shower though) :x

#emulators -Wilhelm

Pendraflare December 24th, 2014 2:13 PM

…Close enough. Still, I likely wouldn't be able to do that much so quickly, at least not on an actual console. Maybe on a ROM with super speed access? Totally forgot about that, I'm gonna guess you used that.

As a Mac user I don't have much access to that anymore…sigh.

Pave Low December 24th, 2014 2:50 PM

Yeah with super speed you can do a challenge a day, it takes a few hours, with Monotype challenges it takes a few more hours. The solo I just completed was very quick, shortest game time.

The Undisputed Era December 25th, 2014 3:55 AM

Yeah I usually always use emulators, the only challenges I use my real copies for are solo's and usually I do them in bits so it could take up to a week to complete them but when I use an emulator I can have a solo done in a few hours. :P


Edit: White mono won't be done for today, i've been majorly busy and haven't had time to even complete the first gym.

Pave Low December 25th, 2014 4:59 PM

I've got 5 badges in the white monocolour so far, considering I was away pretty much all day I'll take that. I'll finish this tomorrow and see if I can do another one straight after and complete that tomorrow, too. What challenges are the quickest to do (excluding solo)?

Pendraflare December 28th, 2014 5:31 PM

This talk about Mono-Color is making me feel like I should go back to my Red Ultimate. I completed Y early in the spring, got through Fire Red as quickly as possible, did Ruby on a quick pace but continued after a break, and completed White in the middle of Stadium Arcadium. But then we have the Gen IV games, and I am not looking forward to having to face Roark with just a Kricketune. But i'll come back to it sometime; I also have X and Platinum done for my Blue Ultimate.

Pave Low December 28th, 2014 6:32 PM

I really feel like an ultimate challenge tbh, maybe a Monocolour Challenge. Sometimes using a Pokemon like Kricketune is alright because you'll probably have it at a really high level by the time you defeat Roark.

Pendraflare December 29th, 2014 5:37 AM

^ Well if you want a good Bug-type move for it, you have to keep it as a Kricketot until Level 16 for Bug Bite, which is absolutely unbearable (it only gets Growl and Bide until then). It can learn Rock Smash, but if you slap that on then you're stuck with it until Canalave (although you'll probably ditch it before then anyway).

And while i'm here, let's give a quick happy birthday shoutout to our fellow Mono-Color thread owner jd. Wonder how he feels about having it this late in the year...

My parents loved the timing for taxes, although I had problems since I was born 3 months early so was in the hospital for a while. I didn't really like having in so close to Christmas growing up, but now I actually like it since I have the day off since it's during the week after Christmas, so that's nice.

Thanks for the shout-out, I was wondering if anyone noticed - only one VM :'(.
