The Order challenge: blaze black 2 badge 1
1 badge down, Lillipup swept until Munchlax and then i had to switch to Oshawott to finish. Due to the increased difficulty of this hack I had to grind to level 13 for my entire party to get through the perfect stat team of the gym leader. Seems like i'm using Oshawott, Lillipup, Purrloin, and Patrat. I boxed the weedle, caterpie, pidgey for now, they would have been my other set. Starting to wonder if I should have just picked normal Black 2 but oh well, went looking for a challenge and I've found something.

The Order challenge: blaze black 2 badge 2
Since the first badge was more difficult than I expected I got everyone's levels up to 20 before starting the gym. The first 2 battles were still pretty rough so I got another level to each member.

Watchog took down Trubbish but couldn't take the Koffing who despite being confused made short work of Watchog.
Herdier took advantage of the confusion to Work Up for 3 turns then took Koffing down in a single Take Down. Super potion in hand, Take down finished off the Croagunk. Despite being low health i bet everything on another Take Down. It wasn't enough to knock out the whirlipede. Liepard was destroyed immediately from steam roller and Dewott managed to finish Whirlipede off with a Razor shell.
Very close fight. I almost lost but I now have my 2nd badge.
Screen shots:

Oshawott, Lillipup, Purrloin, and Patrat are now all evolved as Dewott lv21, Herdier lv22, Liepard lv21, and Watchog lv22.

I fought a trainer with all fighting type and realized my team is completely ruined by fighting type. I decided to swap my team out for Beedrill through Raichu instead. The Virbank Complex had a pichu and outside of the virbank complex was spearow and nope rope, err danger noodle, sorry - it's ekans.
Now I just need a Ratata to complete the team.

Took forever and a day for me to do enough to be worth updating about, but school + work = no time.

Current Challenge: Love at First Sight (Kanto)

I started with Bulbasaur to have an easier time early. My other early team members were a Pidgey and a Kakuna. I beat Brock no problem, and grabbed a Spearow on my way to Cerulean. I had to grind for a while, but eventually my newly evolved Ivysaur and Beedrill took down Misty. Spearow evolved soon after. I went though the S.S. Anne and grabbed Cut, but not before grabbing a Diglett out of the cave. Said Diglett took down Lt. Surge with no problem.

Could I suggest an update for Sword/Shield?

And obviously exclude Unusual Sighting as I don't randomizing is a thing (yet).

Hit the Gym - Pokémon Alpha Sapphire

I decided to start yet another challenge in here, this time in Hoenn.

With the team I'm planning, my first team member can only be caught in Petalburgh Woods, so when I got there I caught a Slakoth.

I have to somehow beat the rock gym with only this thing. I thought there's no way I'm going to do this with a Truant Normal-type, so I did the longest grinding section of the run to evolve Slakoth right away. Once I got Vigoroth though, bulking those Rock-type attacks was a lot easier.

Brawly surprising was pretty easy as well. Vigoroth can tank a lot of Fighting-type hits with his great defense for early game.

In the Granite Cave, I caught a Makuhita and fought the trainers in Route 109 to level him up.

By the time I reached Mauville, Makuhita was almost evolving, and after he shone in the Wattson battle, he finally became a Hariyama.

These two carried over for the rest of this segment pretty much. I was able to catch three more members: a Numel, a Swablu and a Magnemite. Together, Vigoroth and Hariyama were unkillable in every gym battle. I was able to get all badges up until Winona, and the Exp. Share was really useful to level up my weaker Pokémon. Now I'm thinking of doing another grinding section though to get some more levels and evolve Swablu.

Hit the Gym - Pokémon Alpha Sapphire

Okay, so I beat the final two gyms and completed the whole Team Aqua thing. It was a ride. I caught a Sealeo and added it to the team, and I also accidentally let Vigoroth evolve... I knew it was gonna happen sooner or later with how clumsy I am. Alas, guess I'll just have to deal with Truant for the rest of the game.

I actually did all of this yesterday but didn't feel like posting, so here I am today. Before venturing through Victory Road though, I went back to teach some moves to my mons. I got the Thunderbolt TM and taught it to Magnezone, Stone Edge for Hariyama, Shadow Claw for Slaking, Earthquake for Altaria and Ice Beam for Sealeo. I also got Flamethrower for Camerupt in the Victory Road.

Before Challenging the League though, I did some level up on Sealeo so it could evolve and catch up with the levels. He hasn't gotten to do much in this run tbh except Surf me around, so I want to give him a chance at the E4.

After the grinding session, I entered the League at last. Sidney was first, and everything just went down to Hariyama's Brick Break. Phoebe gave me a little bit of trouble with her bulky Dusclops, and Slaking's Truant really held me back here. Hariyama also had a super-effective move though, thankfully. Glacia's Froslass couldn't stop evading my attacks, which was annoying, but her Pokémon couldn't do much to hurt me. And everything in Drake's team just died to Walrein's Ice Beam lmao.

Steven's battle was actually pretty fine. I led with Walrein and took down almost all of his Pokémon except Metagross. That thing killed 3 of my Pokémon with Giga Impact. I had a Mega of my own though, and when he used a turn to recharge I set up a Dragon Dance, and then an Earthquake was more than enough to knock it out.



So that's one more challenge complete in my Bingo sheet! I'll probably go back to Johto's Monoletter at some point since I managed to screw that run up... But I'll see if I can start over and get the same Pokémon, this time with no videos, unfortunately.

It's been a while, and since then I've completed a few challenges, no pics for most though. I could have posted these earlier, but I'm both lazy and busy. :)

Leaf Green - Elite Mash-Up
This one was pretty easy
Spoiler:
Charizard ♀ Lv.63
Blaze / No Item
- Flamethrower, Fly, Dragon Claw, Attract

Gyarados ♂ Lv.62
Intimidate / No Item
- Dragon Dance, Toxic, Earthquake, Double-Edge

Gengar ♂ Lv.63
Levitate / No Item

- Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, Surf, Safeguard

Aerodactyl ♂ Lv.63
Pressure / No Item
- Ancient Power, Iron Tail, Wing Attack, Strength


Fire Red - Grass Monotype (only one with pics)
This one was difficult, the Rival had Charizard, Pidgeot, and Alakazam to get through along with movesets of very little variety.


Heart Gold - Monoletter A
Pretty easy as well, Azumarill was (surprisingly) MVP by far, Ambipom was the worst, though not horrible.
Spoiler:
Ampharos ♂ Lv.78
Static / Hard Stone

Azumarill ♀ Lv.80

- Thunder Fang, Dragon Pulse, Flamethrower, Extreme Speed

Arbok ♂ Lv.78
Intimidate / Poison Barb

Soul Silver - NFE Team
VERY difficult, obviously due to the lower base stats. Machoke and Dragonair carried the team pretty well, Onix was just bad. And yes, I grinded EVs and fought in the Battle Frontier to get that Flame Orb, totally worth it.
Spoiler:
Onix ♀ Lv.86
Rock Head / Silk Scarf
- Stone Edge, Double-Edge, Curse, Iron Tail

Dragonair ♀ Lv.87

Monoletter Challenge - HeartGold

This is a reattempt of a previous run I was doing here which I couldn't finish.. But yeah, it's the same letter, and I'm planning on using the same Pokémon. Except this time I'll actually finish it.

Segment 1

-Started the game and picked Chikorita.
-Delivered the egg to Mr. Pokémon, battled Silver and then was able to resume my journey.
-Chikorita evolved somewhere before the first gym.
-Falkner was surprisingly easy. Bayleef is bulky and can tank Gust very well, and all I needed to do was just poison and attack him, and occasionaly use Synthesis.
-Bugsy was just annoying. He's actually so random, I had to rely on luck to win that fight. I think I lost count on how many attempts I had, but it was basically X Defend + Reflect, then Poison Powder, get as many damage as possible with Razor Leaf and hope he doesn't crit U-turn and immediately kill me. It was very frustrating. Got there in the end though, thankfully.
-Whitney's fight was annoying as well, but not near as annoying as Bugsy, since I didn't have to reset. Just the Attract and Milk Drink combination are pure cheese.
-Caught a Machop on Mt. Mortar and Magnemite at Route 38. Grinded with both before facing Morty.
-I had previously taught Payback to Machop to help against Morty, and it did. A lot. Each Payback just one-shot everything on his team. Magnemite had to paralyze Gengar first so Machop wouldn't get killed by a Shadow Ball though.
-After the fight, Machop evolved.
-In Route 41 I captured yet another team member: Mantine.
-I used Magneton on Chuck's fight, and even though it's weak to Fighting, Chuck's only Fighting-type move sucks and doesn't even hurt Magneton if it attacks first... Easy badge.
-Mantine just destroyed everything on Jasmine's team with Surf. Good job girl.
-Did the Rocket quest thing.
-Meganium one-shots everything at Pryce's gym with Petal Dance... except Piloswine, which lives at 1 HP, and kills my Meganium with a Blizzard. Magneton is able to knock it out with a Magnet Bomb after that.

Monoletter Challenge - HeartGold

Segment 2

-Evolved Machoke into Machamp.
-Defeated Team Rocket again at Goldenrod.
-Caught my final team member at the Ice Path, which is a Swinub.
-Grinded all my members at the Safari Zone entrance, and then the fight against Clair was pretty easy with the correct switch-ins.
-Fought the Kimono Girls at Ecruteak and captured Ho-oh. Now I'm able to go to the League.
-Misdreavus literally solo'ed Will's entire team, most of Koga's team (except Forretress and Muk) and Bruno's entire team, so that's something. Had to keep her in the back for Karen though.
-Magneton outsped Lance's Gyarados surprisingly, and knocked it out with Discharge. Mantine was able to weaken Charizard a bit, but was forced to be switched out. Misdreavus finished the job though. I brought in Magneton again to tank a Crunch from Aerodactyl and kill it with Discharge. The three Dragonites just dropped to Mamoswine's Ice Fang/Ice Shard. Nice 4x weakness to Ice.



Misdreavus and Mamoswine were definitely the MVPs for this Elite 4 Round. Let's see how Kanto goes now.

@Janp if you see this, am I allowed to hack my Magneton into a Magnezone since you can't evolve it in HGSS, or should it stay as it is?

I have no problem with that.



Also since this thread is live again I should mention this: At the end of January I started with updating the main post with Gen VIII stuff, new CSS and updating the wording in all the challenges as all I did back in 2017 was just copy the 2013 version and add Gen VII Pokémon and few challenges. There are also few challenges that I think need some work and some that will be drastically changed. Because of that you can pick some challenges on your bingo and have them rerolled for new ones when the post is live. Which, if everything will go well, will be in few hours or in few days.

Janp February 27th, 2020 12:45 PM

The updated main post is live. One of the biggest problems I had with the original post was the way challenges and their rules were listed. So I borrowed some css code from my other threads and created list, that won't take that much space and is a lot better for looking up the rules of each challenge. Hopefully this will also be more mobile-friendly.

I also added few new challenges, so if you would like to re-roll some of your existing ones with the new ones, just let me know here which one you want to re-roll.

Janp February 28th, 2020 2:32 AM

Tripleposting because I can :)

I finished this run few weeks ago, but wanted to post the main post first. With that gone I can finally post this.

The hardest thing about this run was actually deciding which type to use. I couldn't decide between Rock, Electric and Ghost and after consulting it with people on Discord, I couldn't decide between Rock, Electric, Flying, Fairy, Grass and Ghost. I let the fate decide and end up with Ghosts. And it was pretty fun run.

I started with Rowlet and quickly got Gastly and Misdreavus. Taking on both Ilma and Hala was fine with these three. Then I went to get some items from Ten Carat Hill and to my surprise found Sableye there. Really a great additional to my team.

After that it was pretty standard run. I caught more Pokémon like Litwick and Sandygast and beat 2nd Island. When I got to the Acerola's Trial I decided to swap Misdreavus for Mimikyu, since Ghost/Fairy is so much better than pure Ghost. And once again, to my surprise Mimikyu stayed in front of my party for the rest of the game. Its ability is just so good.

During this time I also noticed that I don't use Palossand as much as I though I would. Ground-type isn't really needed type in Alola apparently. So right before the Elite Four I swapped it for Snorunt.

Another thing I noticed around Hapu's Trial was that my team was suspiciously underleveled. I'm not sure if I accidentally skipped some area or trainers, but my Pokémon were around 4-5 levels lower than Hapu and other major battles.

But overall, as I said, this was pretty fun run that got harder because I got underleveled and Elite Four had counters against Ghosts. Mimikyu and Sableye were definitely MVPs of this run. Sableye was able to counter Dark-type attacks and Mimikyu is just awesome.

I'll also re-roll some Challenges on my Bingo, since they are in one of the following category: I tried them and couldn't bring myself to finishing them or I tried to avoid it as much as I could because I don't find the idea behind the challenge entertaining at all and I don't see myself ever playing them. I hope you understand it.
Kanto
What's your sign? -> Trio-Species

Sinnoh
In-Order -> Sunny Days Challenge
Love at the First Sight - > The Character Challenge

Alola
NFE Team -> The Wonderlocke Challenge
Z-moves -> The Trainer Class Challenge

Sorvete February 28th, 2020 4:07 AM

Awesome new post! I do want to reroll some of mine as well, please.

Kanto
Pick-A-Route

Johto
NFE Team

Hoenn
AquaMagma

Kalos
Retrograde (there are too many of these in my card)

Alola
Hooligans & Vagabonds

For a current status update, I'm almost finishing my solo run in Unova, been a pretty fun one. I've noticed you only need to beat Lance to complete a Johto challenge now, which is a relief. That means I can tick my Monoletter Challenge off of my bingo.
