Stadium Arcadium - CLOSED
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bs9D_BiCMAA_fPp.jpg Hello! Glad you've made your way to Challenges' very own arcade-style event! Summer is a great time to head to the arcades and waste away quarters. While we won't be spending quarters here, I do have some nice little mini-challenges lined up for you so that you can rack up points! Arcade games aren't always about winning, no. It's all about that top score. So what will your top score be? Play and find out! Rules 1. All main series games are welcome for this challenge, whether they are completed files, currently on-going challenges, etc. You are also not limited to only one game. You can do contests in Emerald and then solo the E4 on Black 2 if you wish. 2. HM slaves are allowed. 3. Legendaries are allowed. If on a team, the maximum you can have is 1. 4. You can only receive points for a mini-challenge once. ex. You can solo the E4 for points once, but after that, you cannot solo the E4 for more points, even if you use a different Pokemon. 5. You are responsible for keeping up with your points! In each update, make sure you list your points at the present time you are posting. If you don't keep tabs on your challenge, you won't be recognized at the end, so it's very important to do your math. 6. All mini-challenges must be done within the time frame of this event. ex. If you have already won a Master Rank contest prior to this event, you cannot use that to get points. You'll have to do it again. 7. You can merge mini-challenges. ex. You breed a 6 IV Pokemon with 2 egg moves, netting you 300 points for the 6 IVS and 200 points for the egg moves, giving you a total of 500. 8. All your Pokemon can be pre-trained. You don't have to raise anything new for this since that would take away too much time. The only things that cannot be pre-caught are the ones that require you to catch or obtain something. Those must be obtained during the challenge. (ex. Catch a Swablu, obtain three Eeveelutions, etc) 9. Pictures are not required unless specified, however they are highly encouraged for a challenge like this. 10. Mini-challenges that require teams most consist of 4-6 party members, unless they say otherwise (ex. Solo). 11. This challenge will run up until July 31st. Final scores are due by then. If you don't post your final score, the last score that you posted will be counted as your final. 12. Post "Dani California" in your sign up so that I know you read the rules. These rules are very important to read, so this is mandatory to have your sign up recognized! 100 Point Mini-Challenges Spoiler:

my bad. the edit was meant for a previous part of the post (ninja edits ftw!)...which was genuinely derptacular. Hope no one got to see it.
But I guess I should score a few points now that my name's on the first post. lol that's my fault but I don't mind. Keep it there. Dani California jam time, anyone? |
Well okay I can do some of this stuff! Then I will make my way to Dani, California.
Username: jdthebud So we just do stuff, take pics, and get points? Cool. We need to catch new Pokémon for all the game, though, right, except E4 challenges? |
I am totally in for this :] My username is totally not AoTora xD (I am thinking about changing it though o.o) but yeah this sounds fun x3 Watch out cause here I come ~ I shall get all the points that I can xD
|
Sounds fun, I'm in, let's go!!!!
Dani California :3 |
Aha, some Red Hot Chili Peppers fans here I see. With a name like Dani California, day was gonna come when I was gonna mourn ya.
In other words, me is in-anumdo. Editing this post so I can keep track of what i've documented. Spoiler:

Ah ~I just noticed what's up with that Dani California xD Of course I read the rules! =3 I always do ^^ Dani California is a really cool name isn't it? I'd totally name my kid Dani :D
On another note- I just defeated Roark in my Platinum nuzlocke - So I guess that I have 100 points so far right? |
Not sure how early i'm allowed to make another post (if not right away), but here:
Spoiler:
Yeah, i'll have more up later. |
This sounds like fun, I love how the tasks are so diverse. I'm already breeding a lot and WTing on X, so I'll report back on those soon. The Bug Catching Contest, I'll do it on my SS save that I used for Challegs back in spring, hehe. And I'll see about the rest. This should be fun, so count me in :)
Username: Dani California Proof I read the rules: MIAU Or, something like that. |
Just a quick question ~ Not sure if I missed it or something but are hacks allowed? At least those hacks that have same storyline but different encounters (Like FR Omega, Perfect Platinum, BlazeBlack etc.) - I am asking because I cannot seem to find working black and white 1&2 roms for whatever reason - they all have that glitch when you don't get exp - but I've nearly beaten the battle subway on blaze black 2 so I am wondering if that counts once I am done with it - if it doesn't that's just fine too :] Just curious ^^
|
Alright, I defeated Wake in my blue monocolor, so I now have 100 points!

I would like for someone to assign me a random team for the E4. I will be using Pokemon X for the clear. Going to update with all my point tomorrow :D

If someone could generate me a team of 6 for Pokemon X so I can face the E4, that'd be great. |

Username: Ramsie All I know about Dani California is she was born in the state of Mississippi. Papa was a copper and her mama was a hippie. I have one question though. For the 100 points per gym badge (which is immune to rule 4) is it only for up to eight gym badges since that's how many are in most of the games? |
Quote:

Wynaut? I'm playing Pokemon for awhile anyway... might as well rack up some points too.
I totally did not c/p the points into a text file to remember what's what without loading PC... *cough* Username: Sammi I'm too lazy to sing Dani California. Sorry. :( |

Spoiler:
That gets me 400 more points if i'm not mistaken, bringing my total to 800. Also, I was given a team of Braviary, Exploud, Froslass, Aerodactyl, Hydreigon and Mega-Medicham to take on the Elite Four with. I'll get on that later! |
This will definitely kill some time. At least I won't spend the day sleeping~

I almost didn't see this! I was too busy jamming out to Dani California...
Username: Gulpin I've been working on my Pokedex today, and in the process I've already done a few of the challenges! I have pictures for some of them, but I'll have to see about uploading them. I'll keep this post updated with all of my completed challenges. Total Points - 800
Can I also go ahead and request a random team for the Elite Four in X? I may not get to it, but if I find the time I don't want to have to wait for a team xD. I have a nearly completed Pokedex, so any Pokemon should work! |
Alright, got a fair bit for this post here.
Spoiler:
That racks up 800 more points for me (300 for EV'ing, 300 for perfect Le Wow and 200 for randomized team). Which gets me to 1600 if i'm not mistaken. |

Sammi and Harmonious Fusion would be the kind of people to show up to prom in the same outfit too. ;)

Aye, can someone assign me a random team for Pokemon Y? I got a full living dex so anyone can do. Just don't give me NFEs and legendaries. Oh, and also no Mega-Charizard X, 'cause I gave away that stone.
Anyway, I fooled around for a bit at Pokemon Y. Here's some more random updates. Please excuse the quality. I'm too used with the tile game that it's not even a challenge anymore - 100 Spoiler:
Yay, my baby Sh.Volcarona loves me now - 100 Spoiler:

Oooh this looks like so much fun! Finally my refusal to ever delete a save will come in handy, haha (although it would be even handier if I didn't have a tendency to get bored halfway through a run and never finish it, maybe then I'd have some pokemon higher than lvl 60)
I guess my after-work productivity is going to be zero this week lol I think I'll name one of my pokemon Dani California Username: Inkblots Now, time to go do some planning before I start since I have limited time... |

If you guys could just post current totals in your update rather than saying "that adds x points to my total" or something, it'd be much appreciated. You really don't want me doing your math. lol
I had a horrible day at work, so now I'll play Pokemon and drown my sorrows. |
So, on a whim I decided that, while Leveling up my Espeon to level 100, I would go and defeat the Elite Four. It took me a bit, but I eventually realized I was also Psychic monotyping it, so I was happy when I noticed that lol (the Espeon did reach lvl 100, by the way, and I had another Psychic Pokemon with me, so no monocolor or monopoke for me).
I also max-Amie happy-heart-affection-thingy'd said Espeon (forgot what it was called, and I'm too lazy to look up the name right now XD) So, I was at 300 points, but now I'm at 700-100 each for max-leveling and max affection-thingy'ing, and 200 for monotyping X's E4. |
Hope you guys don't mind, but I added some more challenge for fun. ;D Enjoy!
I've been playing non-stop since I got off work, so here we go... Beautiful Emerald base. 100 No collisions. 100 Blaziken is a master of beauty. 200 I made a baby laugh. 300 Traveled to Johto to win a Bug Catching Contest. 100 Ninetales' head was hurting by the time I found this guy. 100 Had to trade Yes! the Bellsprout for ROCKY the Onix. 100 Speed, Skill (I did win but took the pic too early), Power, Stamina, and Jump medals are obtained. 200 I also caught a Zapdos in a Pokeball and named it Is. 100 Currently, I'm training my random and NFE team in X to get those knocked out of the way as well as doing some stuff in HeartGold. Edit: I made a White Flute Emerald, huff puff. 100 I listened to Joey talk about Rattata movesets. 100 I hit the jackpot at the Mauville Game Corner. 300 I'll add pictures of those later. Having issues getting them uploaded. I didn't get a picture of the phonecall though, but I mean, do you REALLY want to see what he was telling me i mean rly. Total: 3100 |

I wanted to save my daily update for when I'm not on mobile, but I just had to show off the challenge I completed without really trying.
I was watching an LP and wonder trading at the same time, when this came through. Could have used it for the bad nickname challenge too, if I hadn't already completed that one. My new bottle of chilled steak sauce brings my running total up to 1100 points. |
Well, for something to do, I suppose (Or I just have a particular weak spot for Event Challenges)(even though there is only, what, a week left...)(oh well)
Username: Waters_echo Dani California (although, I assure, I tend to go and read the rules a lot to ensure that I do stick to them...) |
Headbutt +100

Level 3 Voltorb Flip +100 Level 5 Voltorb Flip +200 Spoiler:
Collect all 28 Unown +300 Spoiler:
Earn all 5 Pokeathelon Medals +200 Spoiler:
Necrum: 1200 |
Now, here's my actual daily update.
Earned the Marsh and Earth badges in LeafGreen. - 200 points Gathered a group of Eeveelutions together in X. - 100 points Migrated several Pokémon from White 2 to X. - 100 points Running total: 1500 points You may notice in the Eeveelutions screenshot that I've already gathered together my random team. I actually had all of them except Mawile already, but Lapras and Wailord are a bit low-leveled at the moment. I could probably get by right now, but I'd like to play it safe and do a little training first. I'm also capable of monotyping the E4 with fire in both X and LeafGreen, and I'm currently weighing the pros and cons of doing it in one game over the other. X is definitely the easier option, but I'm dead-set about doing it with my in-game team, and one of its members is trapped in my battle box until the Global Link tournament ends. |
Can someone assign me a randomized team? I have no idea if I'll actually get to it, but at least I can have it on hand to check into if I get a chance.

Yeah, I'll also have a randomized team just in case. Keep in mind I don't own X or Y so no Gen VI Pokes please.

And more points for me! :3 I've been pretty busy in past two days because I wanted to get more points~ Here is what I got:
Points before update: 3300 Points after the update: 5200 ~Got one badge in Mightyena solo run on Ruby (100 Points) ~Got from beginnin to the end of the game (FireRed) in the time frame of this event (Started two days ago and finished few minutes ago) (300 points) ~Got 8 gym badges in that FireRed game (800 points) ~Revived Helix fossil in that game (100 points) ~Got a jackpot (three sevens) in the game corner (300 points) ~Bought Porygon in the game corner (300 points) Pictures: Spoiler:

And I almost got to level 8... - 100 + 200
Spoiler:
EDIT: I lost count at how many times I went back to level 1... - 300 Spoiler:
Total: 2000 |
Got a bit more to toss in here.
Spoiler:
Total points: 3400 - NOT 3700 considering Cryogonal only counts for BW contrary to what was believed previously. |
I accidentally slept in and haven't gotten as much done today! However, I'll be able to work on completing more this evening.

I personally commend anyone that catches all the Unown for this. I think that's the hardest thing that you can actually do for this challenge, excluding the luck based stuff like Pokerus. lol

You know, I get the feeling that HeartGold and SoulSilver are going to get a lot of attention during this challenge. And as much as I love Vietnamese Crystal, I've been neglecting it a lot lately. Let's win the Bug-Catching Contest in Viet Crystal!...
Oh. So I won the contest in HeartGold after all. - 100 points As long as I had my game on, I figured I might as well flip some Voltorbs. I easily got to level three, and reached level five after a few more explosions than I would have liked. I've never gotten to level eight, no matter how hard I've tried, so I didn't waste my time making any attempts. - 300 points Running total: 1900 points |
I am going to assume it is okay that I post now considering that we posted sign up.
CSA=Crystal file started specifically for this challenge as of yesterday, MiI='Fish Challenge' Emerald file (completed 'challenge' file), X=X cartridge (ongoing), no others used as yet. 100 pts: CSA: Win a Bug Catching Contest in GSC or HGSS (it was a scyther) MiI: Catch a wild Swablu X: Obtain a Pokemon foreign to you from Wonder Trade (Several, sometimes two in a row. Photos later?) CSA: Obtain a Headbutt Tree Pokemon in GSC or HGSS CSA: Make an in-game trade (ROCKY the onix) MiI: Create a flute from ash in RSE (blue flute) CSA: Listen to Youngster Joey's phonecall (hahahaha, by the time he actually called us to talk about his ratatta 'raring to go' he'd already called us for battles enough times that he had a raticate) CSA: Catch a Lapras in Union Cave (you'll see him later, he's part of my team) =8=800pts Spoiler:
Obtain a badge 100x5=500pts Spoiler:
200 pts: MiI: Win a Master Rank contest CSA: Successfully breed at least 2 egg moves on a Pokemon =2=400pts Spoiler:
300 pts: Catch and evolve Feebas in RSE Catch Pokerus naturally (passing from another Pokemon doesn't count) =2=600pts Spoiler:
Feebas + Master rank As is obvious, I already knew exactly where a feebas tile was in my Fish Challenge file. Was kind of worried that I wouldn't have enough berries left to get him up to a high enough beauty after Regalecida, but, well... we did, so that's great.)(also probably would have been easier to just use Rega for the Master Rank, seeings as she already has that ribbon but. Eh) Several others in progress. Dualling up monocolour and monotype in CSA. (Why is terrible nickname via wondertrade only 100, great skies, we've only even seen, what, TWO nicknames in all the times we've traded...) Total for update 1: 2300pts |

Just to be clear, this ends on the 31st? I'm a little confused because the forum-wide notice says that it is only open for a week which would mean it will close on the 26th. |

Also, got an update. While playing Red:
While playing Christmas Gold:
While playing SoulSilver:
While playing Volt White 2 and White:
My Black 2 sort of... crashed, I think? I don't know what's wrong with it, but it won't load the save file, so I guess it's unusable. Too bad, that Altaria I trained earlier was gonna be useful. Points thus far: 4100 |

Whoo! Finally got started. Wasted a lot of time trying to get vbalink to work with Wine on my mac so I could trade (which would make everything so much easier) but for some reason it decided it doesn't want to, even though it worked perfectly on my old mac *sigh*
Anyway… Started a new game on Gold, hopefully I'll manage to finish it. And a quick question on that note - when do you consider a game "finished"? I assume after E4 and champion? Listen to Youngster Joey's phone call - 100 points About 50,000 times, thank you Joey. Obtain a badge - 100 points x2 Zephyr and Hive badges Make an in-game trade - 100 points Traded Bellsprout for Onyx in Violet City. Obtain a headbutt tree pokemon in GSC or HGSS - 100 points Caught a Caterpie using headbutt in Ilex Forest. Total: 500 points |
Could I have a randomly assigned team please? Have four flights tonight, along with 22 hours at the airports so plan on completing a good chunk of this. :p
