  • "What are you doing here?"

    Again just taking advantage. I started up Pearl for my Bug run, hacked in a level 5 Scizor as my starter and did the beginning stuff. That's just about it for now, though I'll now be playing Emerald and Pearl for my Bug types at the same time.

  • My very first update:

    Just started my Poison run and picked Bulbasuar (not going to stay long in my party). Maked my way to Viridian City after almost fainting. So that's the end of my update at this time.

    This is going to be fun for my very first monotype challenge ever.

  • So I went out for the day and beat Elesa in Black while I was out. I got back yesterday and about an hour afterwards I dislocated my kneecap stepping off my bed. It was scary since I haven't dislocated or broken anything before, so seeing my kneecap in such a strange place wasn't pleasant. Anyway, I'm lying in bed with me knee resting so I decided to post what I've done.

    Sorry, guy. No hacking allowed. And as far as I can tell you never invoked my 1000 post promotion. Go read the first post and fix this, or remove the Pinsir from your game. Sorry I missed your question earlier, but it wasn't really in a place that was easy to notice.

    Ok sorry, so if I say "What you doing here?" can I use pinsir? And thanks for letting me know about that, must have passed over that part of the first post haha

  • BEAT FLANNERY!

    Damn what a tough battle, took me almost 15 minutes!!

    Spoiler:

    Team:
    Spoiler:

    I'd say putting Pinsir on my team was probably one of the smartest things I could've done for this challenge. I wouldn't have been able to beat Flannery without her, unless I grinded all my guys up to like level 35 or something. :/

    I'll probably play some of my Bug run on Pearl tonight, or I'll probably just continue with Emerald. Not sure yet but I'll update if I beat a gym or two on any of them.

    I just defeated Iris in my Dark Monotype White 2 Challenge! My first challenge ever has been completed n_n

    Game Time: 30:23 (Yes, I am quite slow... took lots of grinding in the beginning!)

    Final team:

    Level 60 Scrafty (Adamant)
    Level 59 Krookodile (Quirky)
    Level 61 Zoroark (Hasty) N's Pokemon
    Level 57 Bisharp (Hasty)

    Slaves:
    Level 25 Ducklett (Fly/Surf)
    Level 35 Frillish (Waterfall)

    I didn't have a problem with Marshall in the E4 which was surprising. I actually had a problem with Shauntel of all things. xD Her Chandelure was fast AND nasty! I lost the first time with Iris, but luckily I had saved before fighting her. I then fought her again and didn't have a problem until I got to her last Pokemon, Archeops. I had my Bisharp out and she was spamming Rock Slide and I flinched constantly. I kept healing with hyper potions and I finally got an Iron Defense up. Eventually, after about seven flinches, I got off an Iron Head to OHKO that stupid bird and beat her to become the new Champion! :3

    Last update on my ultimat poison monotype in Heart Gold.
    I just beat Red after a long Training session.

    My final team:

    Spoiler:


    Ariados was actually pretty useful and Saved me against Red's Snorlax when he killed it with night Shade, pretty useful move against opponents with tough Defences, even though it is not worth much against most other enemies.

    Now i think i will continue this Challenge in Leaf Green!

    Swapped Furret for Snubbull since I've used Furret a lot before. Liking this team so far; can't wait to get Jigglypuff evolved! Just beat Morty - it was very easy with good 'ol Meowth/Persian. Kinda wish I got Snubbull before I beat him so it could have gotten in on the experience too.
