Ultimate Electric Monotype Challenge - Alola Johto Kalos why did this take so long to do I finished up Pokemon X after a few weeks. I spent like a week grinding in the Battle Chateau for the fancy Lumiose City outfits, so my Pokemon were hilariously overleveled by the end of the run, but whatever. Pokemon League |
I'm not sure if I already registered here, but I'm in. I'm thinking of dropping some of my challenges for now, and stay only with the Bingo and the Hexalocke, and also this Monotype, obviously. Gonna do a single challenge for now.

Ultimate Dragon Monotype in Pokémon Fire Redhttps://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/firered-leafgreen/normal/dragonite.pnghttps://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/firered-leafgreen/normal/dragonite.png FINAL PARTAnyway, back to this run. It took too much time to level Dratini at the start of the game. It needs tons of EXP and it has pretty bad moveset in Fire Red. But I somehow beat Brock with only Twister. The early game was slow, but once my starter Dratini - Mythbuster, evolved into Dragonair, it got the right tempo. But then I got to Celadon City. This part was interesting. I went in the Game Corner in the winter and got outside at the start of spring. And no, I don't have a gambling problem. During this time I got another Dratini - Mythalive and bunch of new moves. And this run turned into a speedrun since then. There wasn't an opponent I couldn't OHKO. The two dragons made perfect pair of destruction. Imagine what I could do to King's Landing with these two bastards. I've been steamrolling everything in my way until E4. Each of the E4 was able to take down 1 of my dragons, but at cost of their every Pokémon. And that's pretty much it. This was really straightforward run, but I'm glad I finally started this Ultimate, which I planned on doing since August. Here's Hall of Fame with not only my dragons, but also my 2 HM slaves - Oddish with Flash and Cut and Primeape with Strength, that I forgot to box in the heat of the moment. https://i.imgur.com/hTI77NT.png Teamhttps://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/firered-leafgreen/normal/dragonite.png Mythbuster, Serious Male Dragonite lvl 63, Inner Focus - Outrage - Surf - Earthquake - Ice Beam https://img.pokemondb.net/sprites/firered-leafgreen/normal/dragonite.png Mythalive, Mild Female Dragonite lvl 62, Inner Focus - Outrage - Iron Tail - Flamethrower - Thunderbolt |
A Psychic Monotype Challenge in Pokémon Blaze Black 2 Part 1 - Diagnosis Spoiler:
A new challenge has started, and I'm pretty excited about it. There are lots of Psychic-types I wanted to use in this run, but I had to reduce that number to 6, I'm not feeling like rotating my team around or anything. It'll still be fun though. I'm also gonna be playing on challenge mode because I can. So yeah, that's pretty much it for the introduction. To the actual game, I just picked Tepig for no reason, and Hugo already owned an Oshawott. As usual we had a battle blah blah blah and I won. There were no psychics in the first route, so I had to go a little further to get my real first member of the team. I caught a male Ralts (I bet you're already guessing what's coming, heh?) in Route 21, and named him Lettuce. Then I met Hiago again at the Ranch and Lettuce had his first battle. It was quite easy, a few confusions were enough and Hugh's AI is shit. Where's the challenge in this mode, huh? Well uh... I might have accidentaly died to a trainer's Poochyena while training Ralts (he had no non-Psychic damaging moves!), so I guess I learned my lesson. I needed a mon to counter Dark-types, so I went to get a Hoothoot back in Route 20. Her name is Hedwig. Levelled both of them to level 15 for the upcoming gym, and then I completed the ranch's quest thing. On my way to the gym, I realized my Pokémon had contracted pokérus! Must have been during a random battle in the grass, but that's pretty lucky (What an insensitive thing to say). I decided to pass it to Tepig and store him in the PC box to farm a little, hehe. God, I'm a terrible trainer. In the gym, I had a surprise meeting with Roxanne, the Hoenn gym leader! Well, not really a surprise since I knew she was there, but whatever. We had a battle. Apparently you can battle all Hoenn gym leaders in this game for some reason. Her team was Hoenn's fossils and Nosepass, all holding a berry juice (which is freaking annoying), but I managed to trick her with Double Team Ralts and spam Psybeam on their faces. It was easy, and lucky. Speaking of luck though... The Gym Battle Spoiler:
A full team of six, and Munchlax as his ace. It looks scary, I know, but RNG was on my side with this one. I led with Hoothoot to setup a little bit with Reflect, and also put Minccino to sleep with Hypnosis. Then I switched to Ralts and immediatly started attacking him. At one point I decided to set up a few Double Teams, but after he Worked Up a fair few times, I quit the strategy. Then reality hit me like a ball when I realized his Minccino had Swift, and all the Double Teams I did were completely pointless. Fortunately, Cheren was clever enough to keep using Work Up, and I KO'ed the Minccino. From this point onwards, it felt like Work Up was the only move all of his team knew, because that's what he kept using over and over. And then Munchlax came to the field. Psybeam didn't do shit to his bulk, and he had Metronome! Though I remember the only move that came out of it was Safeguard, so that's a plus. I ended that thing's lifespan with a few more Psybeams, and that's the end of the battle! Woo! Basic Badge obtained!

The adventure of Pest, the bug catcher
He caught some bugs. Namely Paralysect in a Fast Ball. Paras. Sadly does not have Effect Spore Hera the Heracross. She’s a Hercules beetle. Caught in a Net Ball And in the extravagant Bug Cathing Contest we caught a whopping GRASSHOPPR the Scyther. All female bug type Pokémon lol. Needs to evolve into a Scizor to keep the Pokémon and Pokeball color matching scheme going. What exactly are the rules for trading to evolve? Iron Coat doesn’t appear until after the elite four (at least in Gold and Silver anyways) can I use platinum to trade and evolve Scyther? |

Kimbo’s Mega Monotype Challenge Type 1: Bug Game 1: Part 5: FINALE Spoiler:
TEAM http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/rse/beedrill.png Duke the Beedrill @N/A Level 53/Impish/Male/Swarm Twineedle /Aerial Ace /Secret Power /Brick Break Thoughts: 5/6 – Was okay in the early game. Then it became less and less useful. Occasional late game moments of redemption were not enough for it to rank any higher. http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/rse/butterfree.png Cabbage the Butterfree @N/A Level 53/Quirky/Female/Compound Eyes Psychic /Silver Wind/Toxic /Gust Thoughts: 4/6- Possibly the last one I am gonna be positive about, glass cannon, again I understand it gets better in later games. At its best, its swept the early game and still had uses in the elite 4. At its worst it’s a weaker Venomoth. http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/rse/parasect.png Monarch the Parasect @N/A Level 53/Quirky/Female/Effect Spore Giga Drain/ Slash/ Dig/ Spore Thoughts: 6/6- Ah boy. Just not good. 100% Accurate sleep is great and has its uses. But that’s all it offers. A later pokemon does this type combination a lot better a lot later. AND DOESN’T HAVE SPORE ! http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/rse/pinsir.png Admiral the Pinsir @N/A Level 53/Calm/Male/Hyper Cutter Strength/Seismic Toss/Earthquake/Rock Slide Thoughts- 3/6- Move Pool is possibly the most diverse , would have been more useful in later games I assume where TM’s are multiuse (and it gets its mega) but still bulky and hard hitting. http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/rse/scyther.png Brimstone The Scyther @N/A Level 56/Relaxed/Male/Swarm Slash /Wing Attack /Steel Wing /Swords Dance Thoughts: 1/6- MVP – Yes I got him late, and yes the movepool is shallow, however it hits so hard and is so fast its made the elite 4 possible. http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/sprites/rse/venomoth.png Peacock The Venomoth. @N/A Level 55/Bold/Male/Shield Dust Psychic/Silver Wind /Giga Drain /Stun Spore Thoughts: 2/6- Stun Spore and its special attack made this slightly better than 3rd, was bulky enough to take hits on occasion which did surprise me. |
Because this thread is so active and KingSwing didn't really update the first post for a while, The Undisputed Era decided to take care of this challenge from now on. Please, post your updates in this thread from now on. He promised to transfer all challengers and champions to the new thread, so you can just continue with your run there, without the need to sign-up again.
