[Challenge] Alfheim Online Challenge REVIVED

WizardOfOdd · Jul 24, 2019

Well, continuing on from last time. I actually have a lot of events few days ago, camping with friends, research, and etc. Which probably makes this update late than usual (Doesn't help that i'm doing nuzlocke on photonic sun also that is harder than this hack). This time i'll be putting my progress on the spoilers tab so it doesn't clutter the thread too much

Spoiler:

TLDR:
Current Badges : 5 (Coal Badge, Forest Badge, Relic Badge, Cobble Badge, and Fen Badge)
Maylene's an easy one when you have enough speed, Crasher Wake is a total pain

Team: Undine (Marshtomp), Gocknak (Pelipper)
Gym badges earned: [Stone Badge, Knuckle Badge, Dynamo Badge, Heat Badge]
Did you know that it is a long walk from Mauville to Lavaridge Town since you have to not only go all the way to Meteor Falls but then loop back around through Mauville again just to get to Mt. Chimney so you can fight Team Magma. Since it took me awhile (not really just haven't been doing the challenge), this took a week or more. At least this gave enough training to Wingull to evolve into Pelipper before we went up Mt. Chimney. Thanks to that, Team Magma were easy since I have two water pokemon around level 30 now. Once the battle was done with Team Magma's Leader, I headed to Lavaridge Town since it was the closest town and my pokemon needed to heal up their moves for the Fire-type Gym Leader in the same town. Again, thanks to having Water-type Pokemon, the gym and the Leader were easy but the puzzle always throws me for a loop. Now I have 4 badges.

Platinum Update 7

Team:
Kingdra LVL 51
Surf/Agility/Waterfall/Hydro Pump
Infernape LVL 47
Rock Smash/Close Combat/Flame Wheel/Rock Climb
Altaria LVL 44
DragonBreathe/Take Down/Safeguard/Fly
Houndoom LVL 45
Smog/Fire Fang/Bite/Faint Attack
Rapidash LVL 45
Flame Wheel/Strength/Agility/Fire Blast

Badges (8) Coal Badge, Forest Badge, Relic Badge, Cobble Badge, Fen Badge, Mine Badge, Icicle Badge, Beacon Badge

Sorry for seeming to take a long time. I was on a trip for a while so I couldn't do much online and we were walking around most of the day so couldn't play the games. But I'm back again so yeah. Anyway beat the last gym leader who was quite easy due to Kingdra and Altaria taking neutral damage instead of super effective. Plus it was just easy overall in my opinion. So now just gotta get over with the elite four and champion so most likely time to grind them and get them one level over each elite four and champion.

Pok3pals · Aug 10, 2019

Final Platinum Update

Final Team:
Kingdra LVL
Infernape LVL 63
Rock Smash/Close Combat/Flare Blitz/Rock Climb
Gabite LVL 46
Sand Tomb/Slash/Dragon Claw/Dig
Houndoom LVL 60
Flamethrower/Fire Fang/Crunch/Dark Pulse
Rapidash LVL 54
Flame Wheel/Strength/Bounce/Fire Blast
Altaria LVL 57
DragonBreath/Dragon Pulse/Safeguard/Fly

So Platinum Salamander challenge complete. This was a fun and interesting challenge especially with the level limits. What I will say is early on in the game it is hard to not over level, but the problem you get later on is you might be under level which causes you to grid which I actually enjoyed for some strange reason. I would actually recommend the challenge since it is a somewhat easier challenge than the other ones especially since you automatically get a fire pokemon as a starter. But besides that how I beat the elite 4 and champion. I mainly assigned one pokemon to an elite four member. So Rapidash was against the bug elite four. Altaria against ground, Kingdra against fire, and Houndoom against psychic. That left Infernape with the champion while Gabite was more of the healer/support pokemon. Though as I stated about grinding the best place I found to grind was Route 223 due to the leveling of the pokemon and how Tentacruel gave quite a bit of exp.

Good job completing your second run! It's kinda strange having the first two completed runs both be from the same person, but that just gives you a special place in the hall of fame lol

WizardOfOdd · Aug 14, 2019

Sorry for long time waiting, honestly i was too lazy to write haha. I've done it, with few mishap and two ridiculous mistakes we still managed to beat the pokemon league. Without further ado here's the transcript.

Spoiler:

- So we're in Veilstone, wrecking some (a lot) grunts, teleporting to Cyrus's room, and he's still no big deal (Justice for Cyrus, Buff Him). And we actually managed to get to the laboratory where Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit is being experimented, we fight Saturn. In which we fainted one (!) (It's actually because i didn't heal my pokemons at all, and i were screwed when a random sucker punch from a Toxicroak hit me unexpectedly (Ironic). But in the end he still beaten we released those three pokemons, and off to the mount coronet we go.
- I was actually kinda forgotten that i had to enter through the southern entrance instead of the northern one, but silly me spending 10 minutes stupidly contemplating where i went wrong. Then i beat more grunts in my way.
- Now we're on the Spears Pillar, beat Grunt, beat two grunts in the double battle, and then with Barry defeat Jupiter and Mars (BARRY WHY ARE YOU SO USELESS!? I HAD TO DO ALL THE HEAVY LIFTING), then finally Cyrus summons Giratina (Really Giratina's first appearance is still so cool in my mind)
- And Cynthia came, and with Cyrus we're in Distortion World (OHH HOW HAVE I MISSED DISTORTION WORLD, even though i've completed Platinum 7-8 times, haha). And so we advance through the Distortion World where we faced our greatest challenge yet which is PUZZLE AND WALKWAYS HAHAA (My brain kind of shortcircuited at the time so even an easy riddle become very hard). And then we beat Cyrus again, although this one he proves to be a bit of a challenge congrats to that. And we faced Giratina, after all of those great animation showcase of Giratina it sure is going to be a great match... Or not, he fall to legendary god Master Ball (Just because i don't want Sting to wipe the floor with him)
- And so it ends (P.S THIS IS MY DRAFT FROM 29TH OF JULY, GT happened and all of my time goes there LoL i don't remember the rest of my run, so if i didn't write it in detail it's because of the event haha.).. uhh.. And yep it ends.. the whole Galactic shebang was all done and buried under the ground now it's time for Edgy dude Volkner.
- Sooo.. Basically we're going to Sunnyshore and everything was pretty much all the same, except the trainer composition and as Sting was overpowered he crushed the entire Volkner's team without a fight.
- And next journey to VIctory Road yay, more exp fodder.
- WHAT! HOW DARE YOU REDIRECT ME SIR! I'VE COLLECTED 8 GYM BADGES AND WE STILL HAVE TO TRAIN AT ROUTE 224!? BAH.. Ah well..
- And hey we find Marley, and as the normal game would we escort her until the exit and that's it, so what the hell is waiting at the end of Route 224?
- OH it's our greatest rival Dawn, we had an epic match where she fainted 2 of my pokemon as usual, but we're stronger now so yup no victory to you.
- And we're back... Urgh.. It's out greatest hindrance Barry.. You couldn't even knock one of my pokemon out and i don't even use Beth right now.
- Talking about Beth, where's Beth OH NOOO... I've entered the Elite Four area without Equipping Beth and my Power Band and i still haven't forgotten Rock Climb that's still in Sting yet.. urghh.
- Ok i'll keep it simple, except Aaron (HAHAHA CAN'T SETUP SWORDS DANCE SUCKS HUH?) They're top notch challenge. But the hardest of them all is Granny Bertha and she doesn't need to use earthquake, just several of crit hit stone edge and my team almost wiped out.
- And finally we're gonna have this epic battle against Cynthia, and oh she has a Clefairy, is she going to use Moonblast? Oh Reflect? Swords Dance then. Wait? Light Screen, okay i can setup another time. MAGIC COAT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? And with another swords dance my Drapion become OP. And six Cross Poisons later that's the most anticlimatic battle in my entire playthrough.

Read the bottom part, i've told in the transcript that Cynthia was the most anticlimatic battle. Which means i've beaten her. Sorry it's kinda messed up

Undine Update 1

Team:

Lvl: 16
Moveset:
-Tackle
-Water Gun
-Focus Energy
-Tail Whip

Badges: Trio Badge

So the first one was a slight challenge since I was faced against the grass type gym leader as expected. Though it became a bit easier the more I grinded against him and his Lillipup. Along with using a few Tail Whips and a Focus Energy it made it somewhat easier.

Sorry for not posting for a long time! Just lost a bit of motivation for challenges, but now I'm doing better now! So then I have progressed quite a lot since last time. The normal and bug badge I don't remember what I did since I defeated them a while ago so...Sorry. But for both the electric and ground they were surprisingly easy. For Elesa I mainly used Palpitoad since she couldn't do anything. All she used was Aerial Ace for her Emolgas and spammed Quick Attack with Zebstrika. And for Clay I one shot his Krokorok with Avalanche and defeated the rest with Water Pulse. So...Just three more to go! Of course I still need a Pokémon to have Water Absorb which I might get a Frillish. And then the other two members might be Beartic and Cryogonal with one of them or Vanillite learning Ice Beam.

Syntthetix · Dec 29, 2019

Update 1

Team:
Beedrill lvl 18
Poison Sting/Harden/Fury Attack/Focus Energy
Nidoran(M) lvl 7
Peck/Leer
Zubat lvl 8
Leech Life/Astonish

Badges (1) Boulder Badge

So I begin my journey and pick Bulbasaur thinking it is great that I can use my starter only to find out that he cannot learn any dark type moves at all by tm or level up so I catch a Weedle as the actual first member of my team and begin grinding right after I catch a Pidgey because I have to because of my restrictions as an Imp then once I evolve Weedle into Beedrill(which took forever because Weedle could only do one battle before I had to go back to the Pokemon center and Kakuna wasn't much better)I do the optional rival battle and head Viridian forest and proceed to show all of the bug catchers who the true bug catcher is then move on to pewter city and grind to learn focus energy this is so I don't have to spend hours grinding just to fight Brock so on my first attempt I get crushed by Geodude and by the time I got to Onix, Beedrill had like 2 hp so I reset and tried again and this time I get super lucky with Geodude spamming defense curl so I could set up after I set up my 6 hardens and focus energy I poison Geodude then use fury attack till he dies then do the same to Onix. After that I battle my way through to mount moon and before I enter I catch a Nidoran and then enter Mt. Moon to catch a Zubat and box the Pidgey since the Zubat can replace Pidgey, follow the rule and has the type that matches my class Imp, I then reach cerulean, heal up then start grinding.

VANILLACOOK1ES · Apr 23, 2020

Badges (2) Cascade and Boulder

So 3 things I forgot to mention last time so basically on my way through Mt. Moon I made sure to pick the thief TM and a moon stone then once I got out I caught an Ekans. OK onto the more recent stuff so I battle my rival(sweep with beedrill) then start switch training Zubat and Ekans on nugget bridge then I talk to Bill, get dig,and then I go train on route 6 then go to Misty she wasn't that hard a clean sweep with Beedrill since her pokemon a part psychic I have a feeling Beedrill's reign of terror will end very soon so I officially move onto Vermilion and go on the SS Anne and start preparing for my rival battle(Side note I didn't evolve yet Nidorino because Nidoking doesn't learn a level up dark move and thief is being saved for someone but Nidorino learns Flatter at Lvl 43 a move I didn't even know existed,it's swagger but for special atk)
