Okay, I think you can use Marowak instead of Gliscor if you don't want to trade in Razor Fang.

Say if I choose Piplup then I can do the challenge continuing with entry 10, but I have no way of getting the other two starters. Does this challenge want you to use all three starters and then the next three mons in the dex? If so I can't complete this and would like a new challenge if possible

No, you can pick any 6 Pokémon that comes after each other in your game's dex.
For example, I have this challenge on Sinnoh, so my team in Diamond could be Cherrim, Gastrodon, Heracross, Ambipom, Drifblim and Lopunny.

I see thank you! And yeah then I will do this challenge in Sinnoh. And I will use Marowak in my Kalos scramble

*Quick update*

I played for some hours today and got the last 2 badges and defeated Team Galactic, so I'm in the Victory Road entrance.


I have to grind a bit now and prepare for E4/Cynthia, I guess I'll backtrack and battle some trainers that I missed '-.-

Oh yeah, and I captured my last team member.

After grinding for some hours, searching for hidden items and digging some walls underground, WE FINALLY MADE IT.

Spoiler:
Now let MON take some credit too, MUTT...


My only trouble with E4 was actually Lucian, which, despite of the not-really-good AI, managed to black me out one time.

But fortunately, the second try was the right one, where Cynthia was completely obliterated by Drapion and eleven Acupressures.

I don't know which move take now, but the Unova challenges seem really fun...

A TYPE LINK CHALLENGE ON POKÉMON SAPPHIRE
BINGO! challenges completed: 2/20

UPDATE #2

I'm on a mission, and that is to complete my team. I originally wanted to get a full 6 member team, but since there's gonna be quite some flying around, I decided to make it 5 and catch a Tropius for HM Slave.

It's catching time. So I beat Team Aqua at the Weather Institute, defeat May and run straight past Fortree. I get past the invisible Kecleon, avoid as many trainers as possible to save them for later levelling, and climb Mt. Pyre. After a bit of searching, I catch my 4th comrade: GUERRERO the Meditite (Guerrero means warrior in Spanish).

I chose a Meditite/Medicham, simply because I never used it before. It has really poor stats, but Pure Power doubles it's attack, which during the run proved to be quite successful (at least, so far...).

The next pal is also one I never had as a teammate. I go all the way back to the Meteor Falls and find myself a Lunatone, which I simply call LUNA (Spanish for moon).

The plan was to catch an Aron now, but it's lack of wings changed this idea. So I trained everyone to an acceptable level, beat the Fortree gym, beat Team Aqua once again, crush the twins in Mossdeep and go through the whole Kyogre saga. Finally, I beat Wallace (even though I have 2 Grass types, the lack of Electric moves was quite noticeable).

Other events:
- BARRO evolved into a Swampert.
- FUENTE evolved, after exploring the Abandoned Ship, into a Ludicolo.
- GUERRERO evolved into a Medicham

Now, it's time to head for VR and the Hoenn League, train, and try to beat the E4.

UPDATE #3 - FINALE

After a few hours of training and grinding I challenged the E4. All my Pokemon are at level 50, here's how it went:

Sydney
I've got two fighters at a higher level...

Phoebe
Here I used both FUENTE and BARRO. Since I don't have any Dark or Ghost moves, it came down to simply brute force.

Glacia
I start with GUERRERO using Bulk Up, Glalie uses Light Screen. 5 Brick Breaks later, and it's over.

Drake
Same technique as with Glacia, but now with LUNA and (2x) Calm Mind. Although LUNA is slower than all but Shellgon, the raised Sp. Def. helps a lot. 5 Ice Beams later, and it's over.

Champion Steven
Now, this got a bit trickier. I start with BARRON against Skarmory. After 2 Waterfalls he swaps for Aggron, which is easily disposed of with 1 Earthquake. Next, Cradily, Armaldo, again Skarmory and Claydol, are stubborn, but when Steven is down to only Metagross, I still have BARRO (half HP), LUNA and SETA left. BARRO gets Metagross it's HP down to about 10, when Metagross uses Hyper Beam to finish of BARRO. He needs to recharge, so no healing. Anyone can finish it, I choose SETA. Because he restores with a berry I need a bit more force. Sky Uppercut: miss...

Steven uses Full Restore and... I lose...!!?

Well, that was unsuspected...

Let's try this again.

Sydney
See above

Phoebe
See above

Glacia
See above

Drake
See above

Champion Steven

With a bit more knowhow about his team, I manage to beat Steven this time, and not even with too much trouble. Which means:

Challenge número tres completo!!

Cool and diverse team. I'm curious to see which other challenges you completed as well.

Janp May 8th, 2018 11:45 AM

You must be kidding me ???????????????????? I was just about to post here my completed Unusual Sighting in Fire Red only to find Volga doing the exact same thing ????????????????????

Anyway, I randomized only the wild encounters, static Pokémon and starters. It was pretty standard run. I had problem with choosing Pokémon to use on my team as there were many tempting choices. And I had first routes full of legendary Pokémon, but I avoided using them.

I'm also curious about Volga's other challenges.

Just in case your post got overlooked, here you go mate:

30 = The Hooligans and Vagabonds Challenge
17 = The Culinary Challenge
18 = The Retrogade Challenge

I hope these are possible, since I know absolute zero about these games... ????????????

In-Order Challenge - Black 2 #1

Started In-Order Challenge in Black 2 some days ago and have delayed a bit because I was playing Ultra Moon and classes just started this week, but here the first update is.

I caught my first 5 members in Route 20/Floccesy Ranch (the 6th one is frustrating to evolve, so I decided to get it later on) and defeated the first 3 Gym leaders, Cheren, Roxie and Burgh.

I'm currently on Nimbasa, and this is my team for now:

A SIGNATURE MOVE CHALLENGE ON PLATINUM
BINGO! challenges completed: 3/20

UPDATE #1

Since I'm pretty unfamiliar with the games from Gen4 and onward, I start of with doing
some research. And after going through the Pokedex, Pokemon locations and movepools, I have made my decision...

Normally I let faith decide my starter, but this time I choose for myself. I pick WUGUI the Turtwig (wugui is Chinese for turtle).

Now, I'm going to assume that the rules about The Move commence when the first POKEMON actually acquires this move, social just start the game as I normally would.

On route 202 I catch SHANDIAN the Shinx (shandian is Chinese for lighting).

In the Ravaged Path I catch BIANFU the Zubat (bianfu is Chinese for bat).

Figured out the move yet? Indeed, it's Bite...

I train my pocket monsters. BIANFU is the first to learn Bite at level 13, and therefore will be placed as first of the team until the others learn Bite as well.

It's not too hard. I start every battle with Bite, which causes flinching sometimes. Then I can swap or keep on fighting, as I desire. The first Gym, Roark, is defeated very easy like this. After a Bite from BIANFU, WUGUI finishes it off with 3 Razor Leaves. Also the second (Gardenia) and, especially, the third badge (Fantina) were easy peasy.

In Hearthome I get an Eevee as a present. I name him YANHUA (yanhua is Chinese for evolution). At level 29, he should learn Bite too. Until then, I don't think I can use it (correct me if I'm wrong), so I wrap the Exp. Share around his neck.

Talking about evolution:
- WUNGUI evolved in Grotle
- SHANDIAN evolved in Luxio
- BIANFU evolved in Golbat and, being the happy bat he is, in Crobat

In-Order Challenge - Black 2 #FINAL




I delayed a bit but I did it wow hype!

Hmm, the Elite Four was not as bad as I thought it would be, I didn't want to grind and entered the way I got there, but it was smooth.


Shauntal was not a problem. I led with Stoutland and crunched the hell out of Cofagrigus, poor mon did not have anything to hurt me. She fell easily to Golurk, though, but Azumarill handled it fine. Drifblim and Chandelure were no problem to Ampharos and Golduck.

Grimsley was the hardest of the four, with Scrafty being able to take 2 Moxies. Stoutland's critical Return saved me from the sweep, fortunately.

Caitlin was a laugh. 4 Calm Minds + Dark Pulse Lucario = piece of cake.

I had nothing strong against Marshal, honestly (only a Psychic type move in Golduck). But I brute forced him quite easily too.


Now, Iris was a pretty decent opponent. I led with Ampharos and managed to critical hit Hydreigon with Signal Beam so no problem. Next up was Aggron. I know this thing has Earthquake so I switched up to Sunflora. OHKOed it with Earth Power but took some damage from Earthquake and Double-Edge, still. Druddigon entered and I decided to sac Sunflora to get a free switch, but Azumarill and Golduck managed to double team him out easily. Lapras was next, and I quickly switched to the half-HP Ampharos. After some stalling he finally took Lapras out. I got pretty lucky by Haxorus getting paralyzed due to Static, so 2 Returns + one Ice Beam were enough. Archeops was easy.

And that concludes another challenge in my catalogue. Phew, that was a fun run. And I was able to use Sunflora for the first time too, so I enjoyed it. :)

I'll see what I'll do next. Hopefully I won't get a triple post.

A SIGNATURE MOVE CHALLENGE ON PLATINUM
BINGO! challenges completed: 3/20

UPDATE #2 - FINALE

So I finished the challenge today. It was a pretty interesting run, one that took quite a while (48h27m...), but it was fun.

The main challenge was the lack of water and fire attacks. I chose my team, not only because they could all learn Bite, but also because I never really used any of them before (except Crobat). The final team?

First of all, I evolved WUGUI in a Torterra and SHANDIAN in a Luxray. Then, I forced happiness upon YANHUA and he evolved in an Umbreon. I've always been an offensive player and avoided defensive walls, so this was an interesting experience.

On route 217 I catch a female Snorunt and name her XUE (Xue is Chinese for snow). With a Heart Scale I teach it Bite, and then evolve it in a Froslass.

I beat Team Galactic, Giratina and all the Gym Leaders and challenge the E4 with levels around 52.

I get far, all the way to Champion Cynthia, but she proves to be too strong. Therefore, I train all my teammates to level 60 and try again.

Only Flint and Cynthia are difficult, the other E4 members are easy(ish). Against Flint I have to use pure force, since - except BIANFU against INFERNAPE - only WUGUI has an overall super effective move (you can see the issue here...). Cynthia has a well-balanced team, covering a lot of weaknesses against my team, but this time I am the strongest.

Pokémon Bingo
Gift Challenge - Yellow #1

This game confuses me, but I managed to get past 6 gyms already.

I battled Blue in Route 22 and won it, as well as the first one (which I'm starting to regret), so his Eevee eventually evolved into Jolteon.

Anyway, to the leaders and main events:

Brock was my main concern, since my only team member was Pikachu (also, I heard Bind in this game is broken, and it really is). But a few Tail Whips and Quick Attacks were enough to take him out.

Misty was... Pikachu??

I battled Blue again on Nugget Bridge and got my second team member in Route 24: Charmander.

Battled Blue yet again at S.S. Anne and got HM01 Cut. We're close to the next member, just need one more badge...

I literally laughed when I realized Lieutenant Surge had only Raichu.

Went straight back to Route 2 by Diglett's Cave and traded a Clefairy with a guy to get Miles, the Mr. Mime.

After a lot of frustration in Rock Tunnel (twice, cause I lost against a random NPC just outside Lavender Town and had to walk EVERYTHING again), I arrived at Celadon. Got a lot of items, mainly TM48, which is gonna be useful for a future member, and won easily against Erika.

At Saffron, the Fighting Dojo was very kind to give me Hitmonlee, and he's joining the team.

Team Rocket filler stuff.

Seriously, why is Sabrina's team at level 50, by the way? Nevermind, I slashed the hell out of her.

Went back to Silph Co. and some random person gifted me Lapras.

Fuschia is next, and Koga's bugs were no match for Miles.

Phew, that was fast, anyway to the team:

Here is an update on my White 2 Champion challenge. I have made it to Nimbassa City and have three members of my team. The only problems I have had so far was Burg because I have two ground types but after a few times I managed to beat him and make my way through Route 4 and for once I am not very worried about Elesa.

It's been a while since I did Kanto Challenge, so I decided to look back at Gen I games and picked Yellow as suitable game for Brown Monocolor. I can't even remember last time I've played Yellow and Disturb Not The Harmony's posts just made me want to replay it.
I actually had pretty hard time picking the color for the Monocolor and then members. I originally wanted to do Yellow Monocolor, but changed my mind after realizing I would have to use pretty much same Pokémon I've used in previous challenges (Not just in BINGO). So I've swapped to the Brown one.
This was also first time I've used Abra line in-game. And now I understand everyone that said it's OP. It's probably more OP in RB...
Pidgeot is also something I haven't use in a while. Last time was probably when I was little. It was solid back then and it was solid member now too.
Primeape - I've used one recently, so I've used him pretty much to get through Brock and the caves. I've also used it on as Ground-Type attack user until I got Marowak. Dig was handy few times.
Which brings me to Marowak. Don't remember using one before outside 'lockes. There wasn't much for it to do when I got it so it was pretty underused.
Kabutops - 3rd best member of the run. Even when it was obtained pretty late I spent time to train it and even derleveled it was able to solo Blaine. I really enjoyed imagine it slashing the opponents.
Kangaskhan - Last member that I originally didn't even want. I caught it pretty much for the HMs and while I leveled it, it was used in about 3 battles againts the E4

Sheet:


Not a bad team but I wanted to comment that you can get Bulbasaur via gift in Cerulean(and prior to Misty if your friendship with Pikachu was high enough. If not, there is a way to push it higher without battling). Would allow you to abuse Leech Seed/Toxic with it on your roster. Also there is an Eevee in Celadon that you can get via a gift as well, hence giving you the option of getting Vaporeon, Flareon and Jolteon(not like you need it with the cast you've already assembled).

Oh and one more thing. Yellow is harder than Red/Blue when it comes to Gym Leaders/Elite Four. Pokemon are much higher in level and come with different/improved movesets. Granted they nerfed Brock by dropping his Pokemon 2 levels and removing Defense Curl from Geodude. Bind does suck though(as does Wrap and Fire Spin).

Okay here is my next update for my White 2 Champion Challenge. I have just defeated Marlon, now about to work on the Team Plasma story arch and I have all of my team fully evolved now. I decided when I got to Undella Town to head straight to Village Bridge to get myself a Lapras before taking on the trainers in the area.

Thanks! Yeah, I have pondered using Bulbasaur and Eevee in my team (in fact, I looked at a list of all gift/trade pokémon in yellow to decide which pokémon I want to use). I never thought in abusing the Toxic/Leech Seed strategy though... But I think my first playthrough is going smooth so far (let's see when I reach E4).

A BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS CHALLENGE ON BLACK
BINGO! challenges completed: 4/20

UPDATE #1

I've started the fifth challenge, on Pokemon Black. Only played this (or any other Gen5 games) once and wasn't too fond of it, but opinions can change. Did some research on the optional Pokemon and where to catch them, and came up with an interesting team. Nicknames are French.

It hasn't been an easy run so far at all, but it's a challenge for a reason and quite interesting. I'm four badges in, but just lost against Gymleader Clay and taking a break now.
