I've been wanting to do a 3rd gen challenge but there hasn't been a new one... until now!

Yeah, I'll sign up.
Version: Ruby
Type: Fighting
Final Team: Blaziken, Medicham, Heracross, possibly Hariyama.

And a few questions before I get started...
-When CAN we start?
-Is it OK to trade from other games (Ex: I want to get a Meditite or Heracross egg from my Sapphire and trade it over to Ruby, is that fine?)
-About the banners, how do we get them on our sig?

Also, and idea about the "prize". Would it be possible to make a 1st-... last banner for everyone, so we can show how we did in this challenge (and not just have the winner have something)?

Accepted, and good Idea, I might just do that.
1) When all the types are filled, so tell your friends.
2) Only after the first Gym, I knew I left out something
3) Copy it to your computer, upload it to a image sharing site, I use Photobucket, its free and easy. Then copy the Image HTML to your sig and there ya go.

ill take try it out
Version: ruby

If I can do the bug pokemon can somone send me a private message on how to put that bug signature on my signature.

I've actually started this bug challenge but gave up for a bit. Still have the save file so here's how its going so far.

Started game named Bug.
Chose starter Torchick.
Put it in pc as soon as I got Wurmple.
Evolved my 2 Wurmple to Beautifly and Dustox.
Caught Nincada.
Evolved him into Shedinja and Ninjask.
Caught Illumise.

Man, This seems like fun.. However, I really don't feel like racing through the game.. [Tbh, I haven't got time to race through the game, I've got LOTS of stuff going on..]
But still, I'll give it a try.

I'd really like to do this with grass-types..

My Final Team would be Sceptile, Ludicolo, Breloom, Roselia, Cacturne, Tropius

I'll be doing the challenge on emerald.
