A lot's happened so I think it's time for an update.

- Managed to obtain Dusk Stone and evolve Mistress into Honchkrow!

- Pinch evolved into Drapion at LVL 40

- Beat the Canalave City gym.

- Did some serious grinding with the whole Team Galactic scenario, and made my way up to Snowpoint City.

- After some more grinding, got the whole team up to Level 50-some

- Caught Sneasel. Bred the Sneasel because I don't like using Pokemon I caught in the wild whose levels are too high.

- Egg was obtained.

- Egg hatched into Sneasel. Nickname: Sash

- Did some intense grinding to get Sash up to speed with the rest of the team.

- Meanwhile, beat the Snowpoint City gym.

- Made my way to the Galactic HQ and went through the whole scenario, collecting a Razor Claw in the process.

- Using Razor Claw, evolved Sash into Weavile.

- Currently underway to Mt. Coronet for another Team Galactic scenario.

Current team:

I can't believe it's alredy time for the next to last update on my Ground UMC! I've gotten a lot done since my last update, including getting the final badges in Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh, and beating the Elite Four, N, and Ghestis in Unova! Since the next update will be the final for each game, I may do an individual update for each game so I can focus on the games individually. Also, it will probably be a while until my next update(s) because I have a lot of leveling up to do!

What are you doing here? Well, I'm staying on Black 2 for the Unova leg of my Rock Monotype!
My hack will be Aerodactyl as my starter.

Update on Ultimate Monotype Challenge (Rock).

Update #1 on Black 2.​


Name: Roxy
Rival: Joel
Starter: Aerodactyl

  • Used a code to activate Challenge Mode, then another one to make Aerodactyl my starter. Named him Jet.
  • Beat the first gym easily with Jet.
  • "Traded" in an egg originating in Black, which hatched into Archelon the Tirtouga!
  • Went to Virbank City and trained Archelon in the Vibank Complex, then took on the gym.
  • Roxie took down Archelon but Jet easily finished up.
  • Defeated the Plasma Grunts and did the PokeStar Studio, then sailed to Castelia City.
  • Beat Team Plasma again in the Sewers, then defeated all the trainers I could find in the city.
  • Challenged the gym and defeated Burgh with ease.
  • Continued on through Route 4 and beat Colress, then saved at the Desert Resort.

Well today I am very very surprised! Red in this game has 90-94 level pokemon. I only trained upto level 80 with only 5 pokemon(because I needed one for Rock Climb and no flying pokemon can learn it). I defeated Red with only 2 pokemon. Here's how:

Altaria survived Thunder from Pikachu and killed it with Earthquake. Then came Charizard so I switched to Gyarados, setted up Dragon Dance and OHKO'd all his remaining pokemon.

And I am giving up the idea to catch all the pokemon because since I completed this game a few hours ago, I was catching pokemon. I caught about 300 pokemon without saving but I accidently closed my emulator. And I don't want to do that again(it contained all the Johto and Kanto legendaries including the roaming ones)

Still no progress in my Normal UMC. The Elite Four are brutal. Plus, I'm kinda lacking good movesets.

As for my Rock UMC, I'm currently at Misty with a level 33 Graveller. I'm going to grind a LOT more, because her Staryu can 2hKO my Graveller. I imagine her Starmie could 1 shot it.

- Chose Charmander and named him "Smaug"

- Did the usual crap then caught a Caterpie and named her "Marge"

- Grinded Marge to a "Butterfree" then cleared through Viridian Forest to Pewter

Boulder Badge

- Made my way to the Mt.Moon PKMN Center and bought "Leviathan" the Magikarp

- Fought my way through Mt.Moon and arrived in Cerulean, evolving Charmander along the way

- Beat Vulturo with ease then made my way to Bill's House and grabbed the SS.Ticket

- Skipped over Misty to evolve Magikarp into Gyarados

- Went back to Cerulean and made short work of Misty for the

Cascade Badge

- Walked to Vermillion and rampaged through the SS.Anne, beating Vulturo again and grabbing Cut

- Did the frustrating Gym puzzle then managed to steal a victory from Surge, earning me the

- Went through Diglett's cave to grab Flash, then made my way to Rock Tunnel

Well, that's all for now, looking forward to doing this challenge considering how many Flying types there are.

Well I just beat my 8th gym leader. Time to drudge through the slowest part of the game. I've evolved everything in my party to the point I plan to use them. Porygon2 will not be evolving further.

We traded in Virtual from Emerald and boxed Calypso. We did some grinding on Mt. Battle to catch Virtual up to the rest of the team. Word on the street is that Cail saw a trainer with a suspicious Bayleef, of course I didn't get more info out of him til I battled him and almost lost. After winning with only Noctis left standing, he told me he couldn't remember the trainer's name, only that he went to the Snagem Hideout. But of course after that beating I took, I think it's time for more grinding. I did round 1 of The Under Colosseum and got bored, so that's it for today. Starting to slow down on this challenge now, as post game means more grinding since it's pretty brutal. Sigh.

Ultimate Fighting Monotype: Black Version

Well, it took me quite a while, but I finally managed to catch all the Fighting types outside of Pinwheel Forest. I grinded my whole team to lvl 20 (Audino are so easy with Fighting types) and pretty much annihilated Lenora. Now I'm in Pinwheel Forest hunting Plasma Grunts.

Anywho, less than a week left of my special 1000 post event, so i figure I should sign up for a particularly annoying challenge, Ghost monotype in Kanto. What are you doing here? Shuppet...

Username: NecrumWarrior
Type: Ghost
Challenge:Ultimate
Games: FireRed for now, rest later

I didn't do much, I picked my starter, Shuppet, and delivered the Parcel. Other than that it was just training. Decided just to wait for Gastly.
