Thank you! This'll do nicely! Confirmed! (for real this time!)

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 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. |
