  • Um, i don't see myself in the Champions section, would someone mind putting me there please?
    Edit: oh wow, i bred my Ven with a nincada and the egg hatched shiny! shiny Trapinch called Leo!
    This place really needs to be updated! not only me, but my sister just joined and we are not even on the list of challengers list, and not just that, i saw that the ultimate fail has finished his rattata solo run on pokemon firered, yet he is still in the kanto ultimate solo runners list! i think someone else should make an updated list, and if no one will step up to make this list, it will be me!
    Just be patient and wait for myrrhman to update it, he usually does it at least every other week. Don't worry so much about being in the list right away, it eventually gets done.

    Reminder. I, 649, am also dragon0fangz.

    Anyways, I decided to reload My Zigzagoon Solo challenge. (change my name as well).
    I finally beat Roxanne after what seems like hours of grinding, Z was lv 20. Z and Nosepass had an extremely long stallfest, caused by my Sand attacking him 6 times, then I kept Tail Whipping him, while he hardened. Sometimes, he tried to use rock throw, but it would always miss. Then Tail whip ran out of pp, and I kept Headbutting and Tackling. After what seems like forever, he was taken down. Finally!

  • Wow. So, I'm not doing a long, drawn out log like before, mostly because I got WAY too much done last night. I'm currently...where am I? Oh, yes, I'm ready to head on into the Lighthouse, after I level up a Magikarp I just caught so I can have an awesome HM slave. Which means...I cleared the Sprout Tower, the Violet Gym, Union Cave, the Rockets in the Well, Azelea Gym, the Forest, Goldenrod Gym, and Mahogany Gym. Oh, and like 42564734 battles with my rival Chris? Well, maybe not that many, but it seemed like a lot. And I do love his battle music (I think I should make it my ringtone?).

    Anywho, Champ has obviously evolved twice into Feraligatr over the course of...well, everything, and it now at level 37 or 38 (I can't remember which). He knows Headbutt, Ice Fang, Water Gun, and Crunch, two of which I'm planning on keeping in his final moveset. I just need to replace Water Gun with Waterfall and Headbutt with...either Super Power or Earthquake, I'm not sure which...probably Earthquake, because those electrics are already a pain in the rear, esepcially the ones with the ability Static. Although...Super Power would put a lot of Pokemon out of their misery a lot quicker than 5984796 Crunches...=/

    Completely blazing through the game right now. I had a hard time with all the gym leaders, having to rely on Tail Whip most of the time, until I learned Belly Drum. I never knew how useful that move could be. Just Belly Drum, heal, and you're good to go. Wow!
    I recently owned my dad. Belly Drum + Dig = Win.

  • Update Time!
    • Made it out of Mt. Moon (Without Flash)
    • Battled a few of the trainers around Mt. Moon and reached Lavander town and healed Rapidash
    • Exited Lavander town and headed West towards Celadon City, battled a few trainers on the way and did abit of grinding and Rapidash grew a couple of levels
    • Reached Celadon City and explored, entered the Game Corner and battled the Team Rocket Member, entered the hideout, got a few items, battled all the Rockets, battled the leader Giovanni & cleared out the hideout and got the Silph CO. from Giovanni
    • After alot of batteling, healed Rapidash and went to take on Erika at the Celadon City Gym with Rapidash & HM slave (cut) Charmander
    • Entered the Celadon City Gym, battled all the trainers in the Gym and gained a couple of Levels, had no problem considering Rapidash is fire type and this gym was grass type
    • Healed up Rapidash (again) and took on Erika, I was about 20 levels above and had the advantage of type so this was the easiest gym so far, all 4 Pokémon 1 Hit K.Oed and defeated Erika within seconds!
    Current Team

  • Well, I have just started a Scyther solo run on Soulsilver. I know, it seems easy. Because Scyther is ridiculously good in Soulsilver, I have set certain restrictions on myself.

    -No healing outside or inside of battle unless it's at a Pokemon Center
    -No using TMs on Scyther. Using HMs on HM slaves are acceptable, however.
    -Only Scyther can be used in battle. Period. If Scyther faints, I'll just start out from my last save point.

    So, this isn't quite a normal solo run. After this I will be do other ones with the same rules (Abomomasnow solo run, anyone?). Anyways, I have started.

    After going through all the boring starting info, I hacked a Scyther into my game, who I named Buzzkill. The Totodile I chose at Elm's lab would be a Surf/Waterfall slave. I grinded Buzzkill up to Level 10, at which point a went to Mr.Pokemon's house, took the egg, and recived my Pokedex. Along the way, I ran into someone who I did not know. His Chikorita was brought down by two powerful Quick Attacks.
    At the lab, I reported to the police officer that the red haired boy's name was Chris (After my brother, who the rival reminds me of). Then, I travelled on to Violet City. The trainers on Route 30 and 31 were no match for Buzzkill's attacks. I grinded up a bit, at which point I went on to the Sprout Tower. Bellsprout and Hoothoot? No problem. Buzzkill took 'em all out.
    As you obviously expect, the next thing to do was challenge the gym. I quickly healed at the Pokemon Center before rushing on to the gym. Soon...

    Gym Battle!

    Falker was no problem, unlike I suspected. Pidgey was taken down in seconds. It took 3 blows to take Pidgeotto down, but it did minimal damage with it's Gust.

    Afterward, I ran off to the Pokemart to grab the Pokemon Egg, which will certainly never get past Togepi.

  • Hey I wanna join in on this challenge but I don't know what Pokemon to use. I play Sapphire and I can't do hacks and trades. Can anyone suggest a good pokemon I could find early in the game that I could use althroughout? No starters though, that seems too... plain.

  • I caught a Slakoth just now and I'm thinking of keeping this one instead of the Ralts (but thanks for the tip, Gardevoir seems like a good idea too). Though I'm wondering, should i evolve it to a Slaking or maintain it as a Vigoroth? I mean, Slaking gets a Truant ability so it'd loaf around every two turns or so but it has higher stats (i think?) so I'm unsure of what to do with him.

  • AND ANOTHER!!!!!!!!!

    As the above line says, Lucky the Lickitung has indeed succeeded once more, this time in the Hoenn Region. I have 4 more posts I believe before screenshots can be uploaded, but will do so when I can. Will upload the stats and what not then as well, but for an overview:

    Lucky the male Lickitung @ Sitrus Berry
    level 77 (I think)
    Sidney: Thunderbolt, Flamethrower, Stomp and Earthquake
    Phoebe: swapped stomp for Shadow Ball
    Glacia: No change, but had to use Groudon to get rid of Hail/revive Lucky
    Drake: swapped Shadow Ball for Ice Beam, one beam took out each of his pokemon
    Steven: MUCH harder battle. Had to switch between Groudon, Wingull and Marshtomp to revive/heal Lucky twice and restore his PP with an elixer. They did not use any attacks.

    Groudon level 45, dont know it's movepool
    HMs the Marshtomp, Dive, Waterfall, Strength, Rock Smash
    Wingull, Fly and don't know the other 3 moves

    Well, need to be starting Platinum I guess. Almost there, and the screenshots will be coming up soon. I'll try and comment on some of the other people's logs just to rack up the post count. hope everyone is having fun with this challenge. Out of curiosity, does anyone think I should evolve Lickitung into Lickilicky in this game? Or would it cause the challenge to become void? I don't really mind either way, but Lickilicky has better stats.

  • Actually cancel the Abra->Kadabra->Alakazam run. I'll do a on Slowpoke->Slowbro run on Leaf Green. After I've finished I might carry on to a ultimate but I'm not sure now.

    EDIT: I've started. Named myself Daichi and Rival Gary. I modded the starter so I got a Slowpoke instead of Bulbasaur and named him Solobro. Charmander was easy after a couple of curses. Followed the story. Got a pokedex. Faced Brock.

    Vs. Geodude.
    I used curse 6 times and my tackle Still did minimal damage.(maybe because he kept using defence curl). He finally got taken down by a tackle but after I use 3 or 4 potions. Then Solobro learnt water gun

    Vs. Onix
    Water gun. That was it.

    Went through Mt. Moon and I'm outside Misty's Gym.
