Update 1
Moving fairly quickly! I have beaten both Faulkner and Bugsy with no trouble at all actually. Furret's pretty good, and is able to sweep most of the pokemon I've fought since getting the second badge. I will say getting him to evolve was a little bit of a task, because Sentret is just SO slow, but once he learned Quick Attack it fixed that. Right now I just caught my Sunkern and am going to level it and Furret up before I try Whitney. I already won the bug catching contest, so I can get Sunflora whenever (and though I would love to hold off til it learns Giga Drain, I dont think I can make it til lvl 46) but going to spend a little more time before evolving it.

Update 2
Much slower progress today! For one, Whitney lived up to her reputation as difficult yet again. She might be the most capable AI in these early games. She locked my Sunkern into a nearly 15 turn Encore of Growth, and every time it ran out she immediately used it before I could use a different move. Then after that, despite me trying to be smart and avoid her Miltank's Rollout, as soon as I lowered its accuracy with Mudslap, she only used Stomp the rest of the battle, and along with Attract, I was out in no time. Second time around went much better, as I just led with Furret and used Mudslap until even Stomp was missing a lot of the time. After getting the third badge, I went straight to catch my third Pokemon, and though I have only used him for a short time so far, Sudowoodo is kind of great. It has a lot of good coverage with fighting and rock moves, and can even learn the elemental punches. After that, I decided to start looking for my fourth 'mon of Marill. Looking for a 1% spawn rate was not fun, but only ended up taking about 30-45 minutes. I'm going to spend some time leveling everyone up, but before I challenge Morty, but thankfully, Sudowoodo and Marill will make him much easier then trying to go in with only a normal and grass type.

Update 3
Smaller update today. Took a little while to train up Marill, but luckily it evolves at only 18, so started moving a lot quicker after that. With Azumarill and Surf, Morty was no problem at all. I've decided not to evolve Sunkern until level 31 so I can get both synthesis and petal dance, but at this point its becoming very difficult to train it even with a type advantage. Surfing in the Whirl Islands sounded like a great place to train it, but Tentacool's are Poison and Goldeen's know Peck, so only taking a quarter of their HP with Mega Drain doesn't make it easy. Good thing is, once it evolves, I actually think it may be pretty helpful, especially if I keep trying to overlevel it. My Furret has taken a back seat, but whenever I bring him out, he OHKO's just about anything. Thinking of teaching him Shadow Ball, which would then give him a type advantage move over 8 different types. Also considering renaming him "Fearet" lol At Chuck's gym, but going to wait til tomorrow to try him, just because I need it to be daytime to catch Farfetch'd and a Flying move will make the gym a lot easier.

Update 4
Moving along in this challenge. I didnt feel like training up Farfetchd before the fighting gym, so just used Azumarill to go through it and didnt have too much trouble. I went straight to the Steel Gym as well, where I finally started to see some use for Sudowoodo, because he was the only thing that could really touch Steel-type. After that, I headed to the Lake Rage and Rocket Base and used that as the training for Farfetchd, which actually worked pretty well. Possibly the best surprise so far is that I taught Sunflora Hidden Power, and it ended up being Fire-type, which is not only amazing (since I dont have a lot of elemental coverage on this team) but also so fitting for a sunflower pokemon. I am now forever disappointed that they didn't make Sunflora a Grass / Fire type 😅 Sudowoodo also worked pretty well against the Ice types in Pryce's gym. Im glad he's finally becoming helpful, because there was a stretch there where I almost stopped using him entirely and made him an HM carrier. Renamed my Furret to Fearret because Barker sounded too friendly for a pokemon that has expansive coverage and nearly one shots most pokemon he fights lol. Im now in the middle of the Rockets at radio tower, but once I finish that up, Ill be going to get the last member of my team with Piloswine! Update 4.5 Rather than make a whole new post, just quick update for now! Got through Rocket tower, which was great for leveling up, but geeeeez I do not remember getting Poisoned that much.

Final Update
This run was really fun, though the end for the Elite 4 was rather challenging. Getting the last gym badge was easy, as Azumarill with ice punch took care of most of the gym. And I made the intentional effort to then fight every trainer up until the Elite 4 to train. I think when I finally got there, levels ranged from 37-33. Bought all the potions and revives, took on will. And it wasnt easy, but I found some type advantage for each and made it through. Koga was simple, Sudowoodo and a Sunflora with Hidden Power Fire, and a few Growths on his first Ariados, made it a breeze. I even did okay with Bruno ... until Machamp. He one shotted everything. Every single thing. Lost and tried again. Got to Bruno, taught Farfetchd attract, and when I got to Machamp, I had a 4x Swords Dance Farfetchd, with Machamp infatuated and 3-4 sand attacks for low accuracy. I thought it was done, but NOPE. His Machamp has a never-miss move. Lost again and at this point, I was out of revives and potions and had no money to buy more. So i had to spent quite awhile just fighting Will and Koga over and over for the exp and the money. Finally, once Farfetchd got to level 38, I managed to get a successful attract and thenn one shot with Fly. Finally moving on, after saving lol, it only took two tries with Karen - Sudoowoodo was incredible, so many counters to her mons. And amazingly, I did beat lance on the first try, though I was down to Sudowoodo at like 10% health, no more revives, and just happened to be left with that right after his dragonite used hyper beam, so I got one move and it worked. There were some fun members on this team. Furrets one Ive always wanted to use but never did cause I always just had too many others I wanted to use. Sudowoodo actually helps out alot, and kinda gave me a new respect for rock-types since I rarely use them. Sunflora, for as bad a rep as it gets, was honestly great, though Ill say that may be mostly from it getting a fire move. Farfetch'd wasnt anything particularly special, and Piloswine was difficult to use because there was no physical special split, so his ice moves never really helped. Azumarill I am mixed on. I wanted to love it, and I kinda did, but I also kept getting annoyed that a 2x effective surf at similar levels did not-great damage because its attack stats are so low. I may have to try it out in a newer game where it gets the fairy typing. I may come back to this game at some point to do the post game stuff but gonna take a break for now and possibly start another challenge.

Update 1
Gym(s) Completed: Cilan Current Party: Chili - Pansear Slave - Oshawott I chose Oshawott at the start so I would be given Pansear at the Dreamyard, which is where the run truly began. I kept Slave in my party for the purpose of HM's, as is permitted by the rules. After training Chili up to Level 12, I attempted to fight Cilan. It took a few tries, but I was eventually able to get past his Lillipup and took down his Pansage with ease. After that, I went through Route 3, getting some EXP from the trainers in the area, and saved my game in Nacrene City. |

Update 1: Roark Defeated
So I started my journey by picking Piplup so that my rival (who I named Ralph. idk why) would have Turtwig to make my life slightly harder. Just cuz. From there I went and quickly grabbed my first two mons available before Jubilife - Chum the Bidoof and Coin the Starly. I then proceeded to switch train em up a bit before tossin Piplup into the box and making my way forward. Grabbed Psyduck shortly after reaching Jubilife in Ravaged Path, and I'm realizing as I type this that I left the trainers on Route 204 untouched. I just forgot about em XD But from there I took my new bud Nugget and brought him with me to fight Ralph. The fight was a bit harder than I remembered, but was still easy, and from there I made my way to Oreburgh. After dragging Roark outta the mines, I went ahead and challenged him immediately afterwards. I did wipe on my first try cuz I was ... kind of under leveled, but I beat him on my second try. I used his Geodude and Onix to switch train Coin a bit, and then left Nugget out for his Cranidos. Water Gun was just barely not a 2-shot, so I had to bring Chum in to take some hits while I healed Nugget back up, and when Chum went down, I was able to send Nugget back in and secure the win. I think this is the first time I've actually gone against Roark with my Ace for the battle being under at least lvl 12. so that was pretty cool. Good job Nugget. Time to polish my new badge and keep movin~ Current Team: https://www.serebii.net/dungeon2/headshot/054.png Nugget the Psyduck - ♂ Lv 12 https://www.serebii.net/dungeon2/headshot/399.png Chum the Bidoof - ♂ Lv 10 https://www.serebii.net/dungeon2/headshot/396.png Coin the Starly - ♀ Lv 11 |
Update 2
Gyms Completed: Cilan Lenora Current Team: Chili - Pansear Slave - Oshawott After trying and failing to defeat N outside the Nacrene City gym, I trained Chili up a few levels by fighting the trainers in Pinwheel Forest. After successfully defeating N, I promptly challenged the gym, though it took quite a few tries to defeat Lenora. After finally defeating her, I did the thing where you fight Team Plasma in Pinwheel Forest, then went through Skyarrow Bridge to get to Castelia City. There, I acquired a Fire Stone and an Eviolite. I gave Chili the Eviolite (I intend to evolve him after he's learned some stronger level-up moves), and leveled him up a bit on the trainers in the Battle Company. After that, as well as starting the part where you have to fight Team Plasma to get Bianca's Munna back, I healed up in the Pokémon Center, saved, and called it a day. |

Update 3
Gyms Completed: Cilan Lenora Burgh Current Team: Vesperus - Gothita Carly - Emolga Cacto - Maractus Chili - Pansear Slave - Oshawott After beating Team Plasma in the building and getting Bianca's Munna back, I went and challenged Burgh's gym, which was pretty easy using Chili. I beat Bianca and went into Route 4, beating Cheren and the other trainers on my way to the Desert Resort. There, I caught a Maractus, then left and continued my way to Nimbasa City. After beating the Team Plasma grunts and getting Strength, I went to Route 16 and caught a Gothita, then went into Lostlorn Forest and caught an Emolga. I will be training all my Pokemon to level 25 before challenging Elesa's gym. |
Update 4
Gyms Completed: Cilan Lenora Burgh Elesa Current Team: Pierre - Ducklett Cacto - Maractus Carly - Emolga Vesperus - Gothita Chili - Pansear Slave - Oshawott After fighting N and getting all my Pokémon up to level 25, I went into the Nimbasa Gym and defeated Elesa using Carly and Cacto. I went through Route 5, fighting Cheren and the other trainers, then went through Driftveil Bridge and caught a Ducklett, which I named Pierre. I went to the Driftveil Pokémon Center and saved, calling it a day. |

Game Version: Crystal Number of Pokemon: 6 Exclude NFEs: Yes National Dex: Yes Restrictions: None Should be able to hack in any latecomers or trade evolutions (with the proper items in hand). Never messed with hacking stuff in before. Tested it out a little while ago. Seemed to work okay. |
Update 5
Gyms Completed: Cilan Lenora Burgh Elesa Clay Skyla Current Team: Pierre - Swanna Cacto - Maractus Carly - Emolga Vesperus - Gothorita Chili - Pansear Slave - Oshawott I did some training in the Cold Storage, fighting Team Plasma. I then went through the Driftveil Gym, using mainly Pierre and Cacto. After a few attempts, I managed to defeat Clay. I also acquired the HM for Fly. I went through Route 6 and reached Chargestone Cave. I did more training in there, fighting N and Team Plasma. During this, Pierre evolved into Swanna, and Vesperus evolved into Gothorita. I soon reached Mistralton City, and did some more training in Route 7 and Celestial Tower. After returning to Mistralton City, I went and fought through the Gym, which was a breeze using Carly. After defeating Skyla, I went to the Mistralton Pokemon Center and called it a day. |

Team confirmed. I see lots of evolutions at high levels, early-midgame is going to be fun.

I'd like to try this one. It seems to be a nice starting point for challenges!
Forum Username: _confused_piplup_ Game Version: Emerald Number of Pokemon: 6 Exclude NFEs: Yes National Dex: No Restrictions: None EDIT: Not sure if I needed to write that in "restrictions", but I decided to catch all my team members in PokéBalls. It's not a restriction indeed, but an additional rule that I wanted to add. I am about to start the League and I decided that I am going to keep the HM in the Pokémon movesets. While some of those are good, some others really do nothing but occupy a place. It kinda adds some layer of difficulty, I guess. |

Update 6
Gyms Completed: Cilan Lenora Burgh Elesa Clay Skyla Brycen Current Team: Vesperus - Gothitelle Pierre - Swanna Carly - Emolga Cacto - Maractus Chili - Simisear Slave - Oshawott I went through Route 7, fought Charon, and acquired Surf. I then went through Twist Mountain, training my Pokémon up. I made it to Icirrus City and beat Brycen mainly using Chili. I went through Dragonspiral Tower, training up on the Team Plasma members. Then, I went through Route 8, fought Bianca, then went through the Tubeline Bridge, Route 9, and Shopping Mall Nine, training my Pokémon up all the while. At one point, Chili reached Level 43 and learned Crunch, so I used a Fire Stone on him to evolve him into Simisear. At another point, Vesperus reached Level 41 and evolved into Gothitelle. When I made it to Opelucid City, I went into the Pokémon Center and called it a day. |
Update 7
Gyms Completed: Cilan Lenora Burgh Elesa Clay Skyla Brycen Drayden Current Team: Cacto - Maractus Chili - Simisear Pierre - Swanna Vesperus - Gothitelle Carly - Emolga Shayla - Bouffalant I went to Route 10 to do some training for the Opelucid Gym, and caught a Bouffalant (which I named Shayla), completing the team randomly chosen for me. Once I got everyone trained up, I went through the Opelucid Gym using mainly Shayla, and beat Drayden. I went back through Route 10, fought Cheren, and went on through Victory Road, training everyone for the Elite Four. Once I got everyone trained, I went into the Pokémon League Pokémon Center and called it a day. |
Final Update
Gyms Completed: Cilan Lenora Burgh Elesa Clay Skyla Brycen Drayden Current Team: Pierre - Swanna Carly - Emolga Vesperus - Gothitelle Shayla - Bouffalant Cacto - Maractus Chili - Simisear I went through the Elite Four, beating them with my different Pokemon. After catching Reshiram since the game forces you to (I just opted to not put it in my party since the game lets you choose not to use it), I struggled through N for a bit, before deciding to train my Pokemon up a bit. This proved to be a worthwhile pursuit, as I had a less difficult time getting past N's Zekrom, and was able to beat N with my Pokemon. After two failed attempts to beat Ghetsis, I was able to beat him after working out a strategy on who to put in the front (Chili), thus beating the game and the challenge. I had a lot of fun with this! I might do this challenge again in the future! |
^ oof these are Pokemon that I have never used before in a run, and would never choose for an actual run. Congrats on the random challenge!
