  • Seeing as Pokemon games no longer challenge me, this seems like a nice perk up.

    I'll start with Water to be easy on my first go.
    I'll be using an emulator(if that's ok) because The only games I have anymore are Platinum(lots of important stuff, don't wanna restart) and Sapphire (I have a Dsi)

    Games I'll be using:
    Blue
    Crystal
    Sapphire
    Diamond

    I'll start soon.

  • EDIT: I've decided to start a Normal run, since it looks the most challenging, and so far there is only one champion. I'll be starting tomorrow.

    Went along the road, fought some trainers. Wartortle is lv 19.
    Bought a Magikarp from the Seller on Route 4. Did some training with both in Mt. Moon. Magikarp got to lv 14. Wartortle to lv 21.

    Update

    Update: 2
    Generation:1
    Badges:8
    Location:Indigo Plateu
    Events:
    Caught A drowzee.
    Level Grinded
    Evolved into a hypno
    Traded clefairy of ingame Mr. Mime.
    (Unimportant plot points.having to do with team rocket at pokemon tower, silph and viridain gym.)
    After many trials, remaining (Mostly) Undeafeated, I made it through Victory Road.
    Bought several healing items. (Full restores, Hyper potions and revives, to be exact.)
    Saved
    Beat Loreli
    Plowed through Bruno
    Plowed through Agatha (All ghosts were still poision at this point, making them weak to psychic, kinda defeating their purpose.)
    Got Run over By Lance.
    Said "Screw It!" And reset.
    Party at time of last save:
    Mr. Mime Lvl. 52
    Psywave(I thought this would be stronger...)
    Thunder Bolt (It helps against Gyardos's, for one...)
    Barrier
    Substitute.

    Kadabra Lvl 54:
    Psychic
    Confusion
    Counter
    Recover

    Hypno:
    Pyschic
    Confusion
    Hypnosis
    Toxic (You never know...)

    Edit: I beat the league, and this is the first time I have done so with generation 1.
    Toxic Really did come in handy, especially against Blue's Jolten. (It's not normally A problem, but it knows pin missile, a repetitive bug type attack,which pyschic's are weak to.)

    I will now start on GSC, I want crystal, but Silver is the one I got started on. But crystal it is.

  • Update time:

    -Beat Claire and won my final badge. Gyarados and Crobat were beasts :)
    -Went to the cave behind the Gym and passed the 'test'.
    -Flew back to New Bark Town and made my way to the league.
    -Levelled a bit...
    -Got bored, so challenged the league ridiculously under levelled.
    -Bought lots of revives, hyper potions, full restores etc.
    -vs Will: used Crobat and Gyarasos' bite attacks to full effect. Noctowl finished Exeggutor
    -vs Koga: Noctowl, Crobat and Scythers flying type attacks delt with the majority of his team.
    -vsBruno: Same as above for his fighting types, Mantine took down Onix.
    -vs Karen: mixture of pokemon to overpower her.

    vs Lance:
    - Gyarados was taken down by Scyther, spammed Slash.
    - Crobat spammed Confuse Ray/Bite and due to confusion/flinches Dragonite went down
    - Same tactic as above, but Crobat did go down. Gyarados finished up.
    - Switched Mantine in, and Surfed. Aerodactyl was down to the red, but Rock slide took mantine out. Gyarados finished up.
    - Switched Noctowl in against his last Gyarados to stall and heal. Revived Crobat and healed Gyarados. Similar story to the second Dragonite.
    -Down to one pokemon each, Gyarados vs Charizard. I Hydro Pumped and Charizard was in the Red. He Hyper Beamed which left Gyardos with 9 HP, but on the recharge I Waterfalled to become champion.
