Why aren't we allowed to trade over different Pokemon? Just out of interest...

Also, can we tarde over a Pokemon egg from the list so that we can obtain them earlier than usual? i.e. Ponyta.
You're not allowed to trade simply to eliminate the use of Any TM's on your other game or trading rare items over, that may make the challenge easier.

And I can't allow the egg because of Egg moves

Wait, we cant evolve?? Most monospecies challenges allow you to evolve. o_O
I feel that it adds to the challenge of the run.
Anyway, There's a guy on youtube who beat the entire game with a single Starly, so this is certainly possible.

And I know that most monospecies challenges allow you to evolve..
I'll make that rule optional. But I personally won't evolve.

Actually, he showed the stats of his pokémon at the end of each video, which were perfectly legit, and he didn't cheat.
you can always see for yourself



NOTE: I've made a slight adjustment to the rules

How'd you expect someone to win the game with a Magikarp :D
Flail makes Magikarp a beast..
And before they get flail, they can always use struggle.

I want to sign up! I'll pick Machop! I will be updating my progress and making gym leader youtube videos. ;]
Name: Skaterz
Okay, I've added you to the list. I look forward to seeing how you progress :D

UPDATE:

- Beat all the trainers on route 203
- Beat all the trainers in the Oreburgh Gate
- Headed down into the Oreburgh Mines
- Beat all the trainers in the Oreburgh Mines
- Talked to Roark in the Oreburgh Mines
- Fought all the Trainers in the Oreburgh Gym
- Fought Roark
[Wow, this was a hard battle; I'll outline the strategy I used below]
Spoiler:

I used three shinx during this battle
Geodude: This one wasn't the problem - the only thing it really did to annoy me was set up stealth rock
Onix: I had to be careful here, and make sure he didn't get too many screeches in. My only form of offense is Bite, and Onix was faster than myself, so I wasn't very successful in getting flinch hax.
Cranidos: Switch in to one of my level four shinx [Both had intimidate]
I used this opportunity to heal up my main shinx, and switched both shinx in to get up three intimidates. After that, the battle went smoothly

- Headed back to Jubilife City
- Fought the Galactic Grunts
