Trainer Personality Examination (Reborn)

AlmightyBreloom · May 2, 2017

Thanks for the teams! I'll most likely use Rebarbeon's team as the challenges interest me a little bit more, but I'll probably hold onto the team that Janp gave me if I do a run through later on in black or white.

Once again, sorry for the wait, but I hope you'll like this:

Spoiler:

Trainer Class: Eterna City's Elite
You spent your whole life in Eterna City, training to be best Grass-type trainer, second only to Gardenia. You studied and cared about Grass-types like no other trainers and so, you became one of the specialists on Grass-types. Now, as elite trainer you have been entrusted with very special mission. Travel the Sinnoh region and save as much Grass-type Pokemon as you can...

Grass enthusiast - Green, Fruit, Forest, Veterinarian, Variety of colours
Your partner since very young age, you always do everything together. This Pokemon should be always in the first slot of your team.

Noble Elite - Red Fox, Good, Opinionated, Headstrong, Smart, Leo
As Elite, you know that you need other Pokemon that just Grass-types and Luxray has exactly what you were looking for. This Pokemon should always be ready to battle (Revive if he faints...)

Cures and Poisons - Smart and unattractive, Chemistry, My Chem teacher (I quess {XD} ), Slender, Biochemist
Your mission will be hard, so you need someone to help you catching all these Grass-types. This Pokemon movepool must be adapted for Pokemon catching.

Trainer Missions:
Grass Paradise: You have to catch all Grass-type Pokemon you find and save them into PC...

Nature only: During whole run, you can only you Berries, Powders and other Natural items, with only exception being E4 fight, where you can use anything.

Well, I think that's it... I hope you all like it...

Thank you so much! I'm really excited to use these Pokemon... I will get started on this challenge tomorrow :)

Janp · May 2, 2017

Guess it's up to me to give these poor soul their personality results...

Hi, sorry for the wait, but I hope you'll like this:

Spoiler:

Trainer Class: Metalhead scientist
Unable to make some sort of line between your profesional life and your passion for Metal, you decided to show the world that it doesn't matter how you look. You traveled to Unova and started new research about Pokemon. Who knows what adventures awaits you.

Metal persona - Purple, Masculine, Poison and Dark, Metal/Rock, Unpredictable
This is your Metal persona. Strong, brute, unpredictable, this Pokemon has to have 4 offensive physical moves...

True scientist - Brains, Good, Amphibians, Nuclear Engineer, Smart and unattractive, Smart again {XD}
This is science part of you. This Pokemon can't have physical moves...

Balancing factor - Water, Bearded Dragon, Muscular, Aquarius, determined
This is you. Trying to balance your life, this Pokemon has no restrictions...

Trainer Missions:
Metal will stand tall: Your Pokemon will make your band. Name them after various bands members.

Newton's Interpolation: (I know it's more of the Math that Nuclear Engineering, but you know...) You carefully plan your whole journey. At the end of each report, you should write a small note about what do you plan next. And in the next report, you should evaluate the result of that planning.

Thanks a lot! I'm excited to finally start this.

Sorry, just to clarify, am I only allowed to use revives on Luxray seeing as they aren't natural items??
Thanks :)

EDIT: Also, for Toxicroak, since it cant learn any sleep/freeze inducing moves or False Swipe, how can I design its moveset to be suited to catch Pokemon?? Any help with this is much appreciated

CAST

Spoiler:

I thought this was an interesting challenge, which I could make easier or harder at multiple points. Arcanine and Venusaur are fantastic coverage for each other, and made the Elite 4 easy enough work. One of the only issues was I was given two alternative Pokemon I could use at various points, but one Raichu was available so much earlier than the other ,Magneton, that I never even went to catch a Magnemite/Magneton. All in all I enjoyed this challenge and would reccomend it to anyone.

Revive wasn't meant as item revive but as a verb. There is Revival Herb that can revive your Pokemon.
As for Toxicroak, there are plenty of moves, that could potentially be used for somehow altering Pokemon's status and stats and help you catch it.

Rebarbeon · May 5, 2017

Entries: 3 and 4
Date: 3/9/XX
Name: Rebarbeon

Entry 3:

Spoiler:

The life of a collector is an eventful one. One minute I'm getting a radio update for my watch to help with catching Pokémon (I hear some songs can bring out really rare ones) and the next I'm trying to soothe a sobbing gym leader who's agitated over her loss to yours truly. It all started when I finally got through the Ilex Forest (which was an accomplishment in and of itself, without Deadeye's oddly keen sense of direction I would have wandered around lost like the Kimono Girl I saved). After exiting the forest I came upon a day care center where I met up with Lyra. Amidst her ramblings about eggs and phone numbers (I wasn't listening very intently) she mentioned the giveaway at the Radio Tower in Goldenrod City. As I was an avid fan of free stuff, I bolted for the Radio Tower and rushed my way through the quiz, astonishing a girl near me and irritating the clerk (she thought my hurried answers were rude). After winning the radio card, the girl walked up to me and expressed her astonishment at my ability to answer easy yes or no questions (what even is an apricot?) She introduced herself as Whitney, this city's gym leader, and invited me to the gym for a battle. Always one for a challenge, I battled my way through the gym and, with the help of screech and super potions and a lot of bad luck, I defeated her, burying her Miltank under a mountain of (mostly missed) rock throws. Whitney, upset at the injury of her Miltank and her loss, began to cry. I try to comfort her but have little success as my attempts only seemed to worsen the issue. Eventually I decided to leave and, before I could, Whitney's friend brought me the badge.

Route 34 Entry: While traveling to the Day Care, a lone Drowzee confronted me, looking worried. This particular Drowzee had the ability Forewarn, which informed it of a dark presence approaching the route and of a grim fate for all the weaker Pokémon on the route. Knowing full-well of this dark presence, I decided to capture the Drowzee to save it from the fate it foresaw (and because I didn't have one).

Entry 4:

Spoiler:

That Drowzee was right to be afraid, Gene is quickly becoming a fearsome battler and an even greater threat to the local Pokémon. After leaving Goldenrod and fighting a number of battles I arrived at the National Park. There I decided to battle the local trainers and look for new Pokémon. After defeating the final trainer Pit evolved into Togetic, becoming much more formidable in doing so. As this happened I noticed something strange, all of the Caterpie, Weedle, and Sunkern that the Rangers said were plentiful in the park were missing with one exception (which I caught). While this was strange, I shrugged it off and traveled east to find a strange tree. This tree, which was in truth very easy to circumvent, intrigued me as it drove my collector's senses crazy. Lethe, who I had out in front to keep an eye on, decided to squirt the tree for no particular reason and the tree, with apparently didn't like water, freaking out. Now confident the tree was hiding something, I watered it and in doing so revealed its identity, a fake tree Pokémon named Sudowoodo. This was a rare find so I didn't even hesitate, catching it immediately and then continuing on my way. Upon my arrival in Ecruteak City, my first move was for the Kimono Girls' performance area, where I met (and saved) yet another Kimono Girl in exchange for HM 03 Surf. After teaching Surf to Lethe I entered the Burned Tower. There I found Morty, the gym leader, and Eucine wacthing on in horror as Gene threw Poké Ball after Poké Ball at the legendary beasts, each of whom he had somehow restrained and put to sleep. Upon seeing this I rushed downstairs to interrupt him (only I get to catch those!) and another battle began. This battle went much like the first one, with his Zubat and newly caught Magnemite standing no chance against Deadeye, his Quilava falling easily to surf and his Gastly doing virtually nothing to Pit. After running Silver off and freeing the legendary beasts (its no fun if they are already rounded up for me). I left the Tower, ignoring the piles of fainted Rattata and hordes of Gastly, and challenged the gym. Thanks to Pit, the gym was easy, with even the Gengar being nearly helpless against the normal-flying type. I now set my eyes westward towards the ocean and the Whirl Islands, which I near house something quite legendary.

New Captures by Route:

Spoiler:

Team:

Spoiler:

Deadeye "Rocky" the Onix
Deadeye ("Rocky") the Onix
Level: 24 Ability: Sturdy
Hasty Nature; Loves to eat.
HP: 58; Attack: 32; Defense: 79; Sp. Attack: 23; Sp. Defense: 30; Speed: 47
Moves: Rock Throw, Dig, Headbutt, and Screech
Notes: The addition of powerful, high-accuracy moves such as dig to Deadeye's moveset have improved him immensely in battle. Deadeye was integral in both the fight against Whitney, where he successfully wore down Whitney's Miltank for Lethe to finish, and in Rival Battle 3, where he was used to take down Magnemite and Zubat. I look forward to evolving him and gaining access to stronger rock and steel moves. I don't expect to see a lot of use for Deadeye in the coming gyms but he will be a huge aid against both Eucine and Team Rocket.

Pit the Togetic
Level: 25 Ability: Serene Grace
Relaxed Nature; Impetuous and silly.
HP: 66; Attack: 27; Defense: 60; Sp. Attack: 49; Sp. Defense: 59; Speed: 29
Moves: Yawn, Charm, Extrasensory, and Metronome
Notes: With an evolution under his belt, Pit has quickly become the most useful member of the team, his great stats only hindered by his restriction from being first slot in the party. While Pit didn't do much until Ecruteak, once there he made his mark, taking out most of the gym including nearly all of the gym leaders Pokémon in addition to Gene's Gastly. I expect to find a lot of use for Pit in the upcoming battles, particularly with Team Rocket and Chuck.

Lethe the Slowpoke
Level: 25 Ability: Oblivious
Sassy Nature; Good perseverance.
HP: 87; Attack: 40; Defense: 45; Sp. Attack: 28; Sp. Defense: 29; Speed: 14
Moves: Surf, Yawn, Headbutt, Confusion
Notes: Similar to Deadeye, Lethe's moveset has been upgraded to be much more powerful. However, Lethe still hasn't seen an abundance of use due to her awkward stats. She was useful for cleaning up Whitney's team and for battling Gene's Quilava and the occasional Ghost type in the Ecruteak Gym. However, in the coming level I expect her stats to become a hindrance. I do believe she will be useful in the coming fights however, particularly against Chuck, Jasmine's Steelix, and Pryce, who she will likely have to solo.
