    Ecruteak Gym was quite easy EXCEPT for his Gengar who sweeped my whole team 8 times
    I won with luck my Quilava survived his Sludge Bomb with 1 HP and after the damages of my whole team a flame wheel finished the job. My rival was btw a piece of cake
    I've got surf

    Machoke/muscle - Lv:28

    This is my first post.

    Game(s): LeafGreen

    So I started with Bulbasaur (LeafBlower). I'm going to grind him get Vine Whip and demolish Brock. My next goal is to get Magikarp and raise him up to Gyarados. I think I'll be able to stick with those two until I get to Celedon and I am able to get a Dratini from the Game Corner and an Eevee from the Mansion. I think I'll round out my team with Lapras and Aerodactyl, but we'll see.

    Challenge Complete on Heartgold. Red wasn't too tough. His Snorlax was difficult to chip away its health.

    Username : Tetiro
    Game : HeartGold
    Ultimate? : No way lol

    Pokemon:
    Lvl 85 Feraligator
    Surf, Waterfall and Whirlpool
    Crunch

    Lvl 84 Dragonite
    Dragon Pulse
    Fly
    Thunderbolt
    Strength

    Lvl 84 Espeon
    Psychic
    Swift
    Psybeam
    Shadow Ball

    Lvl 84 Jolteon
    Thundershock, Discharge
    Dig
    Strength

    That was a tough challenge actually. Here's where I got stuck
    Whitney, Clair, Karen (1st Time), Misty (Whilst training Jolteon. Wouldn't have got stuck if Dragonite was used), Lance (2nd Time)

    I'll try the challenge again sometime. It's definitely one to try on another generation.

    I was a shame that the Team rocket event was so simple,
    In fact it was to easy.
    Archer, Ariana, Proton and Petrel where way to easy.
    Archer had a
    44 Houndoom
    45 Weezing
    46 Houndoom

    So it was easy for my Machamp,Vaporeon and Alakazam to kick their ass even tough they are Majorly underleveled.

    I've beaten Clair with ease,
    Vaporeon and it's Blizzard did the trick for 2 Dragonairs.
    Gyrados was owned by Electrode with 1 Charge beam.
    The 2 Kingdra's where no problem tough not having a coverage.

    I did the Dragon Den's event and got a Extreme Speed Dratini.
    That is the last pokemon of my team I'll swap it with Electrode.

    Pweh that was kinda hard but I made it,
    What I did:

    I didn't rely on one Pokemon it was litterly my whole team vs. their whole team
    Mainly cuz I didn't knew their Pokemon/Items/Moveset

    Machamp is a beast he has shown the most effort hurting all the pokes of lance so Dragonite could finish it, Lance's Charizard was tricky but my last ressort Vaporeon finished it and now I'm the boss

    BEAT RED ON CRYSTAL!!!

    i got really lucky as my highest pokemon was a lvl 58. of course i had a well planned strategy seeing as how i fought him about 5 times.

    Red the typhlosion lvl 56
    eon the espeopn lvl 54
    tiny the dragonite lvl 57
    sparkz the electabuzz lvl 55
    beast the tyranitar (got him from celadon game corner) lvl 58

    when pikachu used charm i knew i was gonna win. beast knocked him out wtih an earthquake. then red took on the venusaur and his solarbeam. sent out eon against his espeon. mine had the advantage of shadow ball but got knocked out. of course he did his job and weakened the enemy. tiny came in and cleared it up. next was blastoise which was easily taken out by sparkz. snorlax was definetly the hardest one to beat. the only thing i had to really hurt him was beast with EQ so thats who was sent in. i knew he would sleep so i let beast have leftovers. those 2 lasted about 10 rounds but beast pulled through in the end. out came charizard and beast was about midway down so i put in tiny to finish the job with surf. of course this didnt go as planned but tiny did harm charizard so after he fainted i sent in beast. the first rock slide missed but chraizard on used fire spin so i knew i had one more turn to win or that was it. after a flamethrower i was in the red with fire spin about to take me out if i missed. BUT I DIDNT! my girl beast (yea shes a girl) pulled through.

    red- my boi we were together from the begining. although he might not of been the most valuable he was up there because he could come in at the end and clean the mess away.
    sparkz- i was lucky to hatch her from the odd egg. not only did she take out water and flying types out like a boss, she also took out the strongest of dragons with her ice punch and the ocasional grass type with fire punch.
    eon- definetly my favorite of the eeveelutions was i believe the strongest on my team. had this been a later gen and i had better tms he would of been unstoppable. but even without great moves he took just about everything in his way out. once he learned psychic he took out even dragonites in one hit. his only kryptonite was dark types due to a shallow move pool that was mainly my fault. but still amazing.
    tiny- was the hardest to train but a powerhouse. couldnt of done it without him. his surf alone took out countless enemies not to mention the damge his outrage caused.
    beast- last but not least of course is this girl. i love the larvitar line but never really use during playthroughs. i was upset that i had to replace skull the marowak with her but i was rewarded for my risk. not only was she quicker to level up than i thought she would be, but i didnt have to switch her out to train her. she took out everything even when a low level. she was a monster and as her name suggest a beast. i can easily believe that she could hold her own against the rest of my team at once. shes great.

    this challenge was awesome. i got really lucky with the battle with red in the end and stuff like that happens. i might just decide to go ultimate sooner or later. until then cya later starchasers...
