I doubt I'll be able to finish this challenge, honestly. Zestiria has taken over my life, but I'm going to try to pound some more gyms next week when I have more free time. I work most of this weekend and in long shifts too, so that's...fun. ~_~

really? i havent got that into Zestiria yet honestly, but i'll try and finish this ASAP

Okay so I really wanted to play this challenge, but this month has kinda sucked. One of the reasons I am on leave was that I had a trip to new Orleans, which was the highlight of the month for sure. However, right before my trip, my computer went completely kaput. I have been unable to revive it since. Sadly, my challenge required some hacking, which I hadn't gotten to when this happened. So I pretty much will not finish. I hope those of you who are playing, enjoy. Happy Halloween, everyone! And expect a Happy New Year! ;)

I'll be gone for few days, so please, please do it. And... Good luck.

I picked Pokemon I never used before in regular gameplay, so I hope this will be fun.
Also, I hacked Eevee as my starter, so I can start right from the start (weird sentence).

What about Red? Would he count as a Champion battle or do I have permission to use all 6 members on him?

I consider him as champion, so I would go with 5 'mons

EDIT: Completed my run. I feel like rushing the game in two days... wait, that's what actually happened :D Anyway, it was nice chilling run. My 'mons were overleveled for most of the gameplay, which was actually pretty nice since I had to finished the run today :D

And here's the SPOOOOOOOOOOOOKY Team:

Mwahahahahahaha i'm Clutch!

Black 2 ---- Treat = Drilbur ---- Trick = Pokemon can't faint

I can confidently say this has been the most troublesome challenge I have ever done, but I won! After my update post I had some college visits and projects getting in my way, so i was blind and forgot to beat the tournament in Driftveil. I ran around for about a week trying to find the next story trigger only to find out i was walking, running, and biking right past it. Once that fiasco was over I caught Drilbur in Chargestone cave, beat the 3 other gyms, took about 30 soft resets to beat team Plasma, caught Vanillish in Giant chasm, pushed through victory road, and caught Druddigon while there. Wew... not done yet ;).

Since Audino proved useless and Druddigon wasn't high enough in level, I walked into the e4 with only 4 viable Pokemon. Vanniluxe swept the fighting guy (Acid armor ftw, what an upset xD), Excadrill swept the ghost and psychic girls, and Swanna pretty much swept the dark guy (girl?). The real problem came at Iris though, I could not for the life of me take out her Haxorus without a Pokemon fainting... It took me at least 25 soft resets, and it ended up being Vunillux with acid armor coming through again. ALL HAIL VANILLUXE!

Amazing Statistics:

Championship Team:

Vanilluxe - 63 -
Swanna - 61 -
Excadrill - 62 -
Watchog - 52 -
Druddigon - 49 -
Audino - 30 -

Soft resets: 130+
Play time: 31:52
Badges: 8
Time spent playing on Halloween because the challenger really wanted to finish the challenge in time: 8 hours

Since it's November 2nd now, I'm gonna go ahead and close this and let Necrum make any final touches once he gets back. Thanks for participating, guys!

Locked.

Necrum November 11th, 2015 10:24 PM

First I want to apologize for how late this wrap-up is coming. Last month sucked for me, as I've already written about in an earlier post, so I won't go too much into all that mess. I meant to get on this sooner, but my teacher sprung a midterm on my class, so now I'm past that and I'm gonna get back into gear.

Okay so on to the congrats! All of you who followed through on this are to be commended! It probably wasn't the best challenge I ever made, but I always feel good when people complete what I design. I can't take 100% of the credit though as I probably wouldn't have been able to do this without Mama Syd to bounce ideas off of. I haven't decided yet if I want to do a Christmas or New Year event coming up, but I can promise it will be a much more interesting challenge. So, let's have a look at everyone who finished the challenge! Participants are listed by completion date, with faster challenges listed first:

1. A Moon's Gust - Fire Red
2. waters_echo - Crystal
3. Janp - Black
4. Blueredemption - Black 2

Wow, that's actually less than I thought finished, haha. No biggie though. Since there are so many participants with different takes on the Movie Titles, I thought it might be nice to pick the most interesting and gather them up as well!

Machamp's Chainsaw Massacre - itsScared: 4-armed slasher chaos? Yes please!
Murder at Mismagius Manor - Kostucha: An alluring alliteration of abject atrocity.
Guardian of the Aztec Temple: Samurott - AoTora: The creator put it quite perfectly, it's quite easy to imagine this Pokémon standing guard, always ready to fight!
Vespiquen's Cyber Death Game - Ahri: Vespiquen's hexagonal design seems to lend itself to some digital mayhem. Bravo!
Five Nights At Darmanitan's - jdthebud: Darmanitan has a perfectly goofy-yet-intimidating appearance to fill the shoes of Freddy Fazbear. Plus an alt form for some extra creepiness.

I hope those that played enjoyed the challenge. I thought it was a nice idea and I rather enjoyed the concept of more stylistic Pokémon selection over specific rules. Maybe more in the future? I am opening this thread back up for feedback, and it doesn't even just have to be about this. I just want to hear from you guys about what you want from the next event challenge. Don't be shy, now!

Blueredemption November 16th, 2015 7:41 PM

I continue to fail in checking the challenges forum regularly, saw that there was a new post in here from my "find all posts" page.

I will agree, the theme challenges I find to be really fun. It's a good change from the rule riddled challenges that occupy a lot of the "new" ones around. I don't have any recommendations for a new one though ;-; I am all for playing challenges, but I am in no way creative about making them. This might work though:

Since making challenges for every event is challenging, why not do an event that incorporates all of the current challenges? Have people compete over a month or two for how many challenges they can complete. If that seems to hard, which I think it could be, it could just be an informal "favorite challenge - challenge" but with a common theme, like Christmas Pokemon or something.

I wish I had more, it's all I can think of at the moment. Good luck with your classes Necrum!

Dang it I missed it. I wanted to do a run of x or emerald with this.
