I am planning on evolving, and sorry for the delay, family stuff.
First log will come out once I edit the wild pokes.

Log one:
Just catching my first team, started with Parasect for the stun spore and then later released him, nothing interesting happened, see picture if you want to see my team.



Will also put moves in the next log, which will be after grinding.

EDIT: Just realised Shuckle doesn't learn power trick in gen III, oh well.

This sounds like fun, I'd love to give it a try. I'll be playing in White 2 but I don't mind hacking in Pokemon from any generation so feel free to pick anything on my list for my team.

Username: Dania
Game: White 2
Pokemon that got away:

Spoiler:


Parameters: I would like a full team of 6 Pokemon. No two Pokemon should have the same type combination but I don't mind if there is a little overlapping on the types between different members, as long as the team is balanced overall.
I'll be in challenge mode.

This sounds like a really interesting team, I was definitely hoping whoever picked my team would go with Venusaur so I'm really excited to start this challenge. I'll post an update sometime tomorrow after I officially start it. :)

Mode: Expert
You get:
Scolipede
Conkeldurr
Vaporeon
Krookodile
Xatu
Glaceon

I'll be starting a new one soon, so here's my sign up.

Username: [supporter]Sage Ghetsis[/Supporter]
Game: X
Pokemon that got away:
Spoiler:

Parameters: Team of 6. Since this is a monotype OTGA I don't care if types stack, just pick me a team of 6.
Mode: Normal

This is a very unique OTGA in that it is meant to allow me to use some of the water types that I will miss in my Ultimate Monotype. There are so many water types that it was expected that a few would fall through the cracks.

I have decided to update the requirements that needed a "Defeat or capture" to just capture. Defeating one legendary Pokemon really isn't that hard so I thought I'd bump the challenge. Also, I have introduced the Expert mode requirements for Pokemon X and Pokemon Y.

Alright, finally got around to starting this.

Picked Tepig as my starter and blazed (heheheh) my way through the first two Gyms, got to Castelia City, found the two members of Team Plasma in the Castelia Sewers, caught an Eevee (male, Brave Nature, nicknamed Kai) that will eventually be my Vaporeon and boxed Tepig. I then realized that I had made a horrible mistake since I hadn't caught Timburr in Relic Passage yet and now only had a Pokemon who was weak against said Pokemon, but I ended up not having much trouble and caught a Timburr (male, Quiet Nature[game why], nicknamed Tim because I am truly creative). Now I'm hunting for a Water Stone, and once that's done I'll catch my third Eevee which will become Glaceon (and may stay an Eevee until I can get to Twist Mountin post game, I dunno) and finally move on to everything else.
