Welcome to this new (I think) challenge for the 4th gen!

The idea for this challenge is that any pokemon you take can only know moves of 1 type, like a Gyarados with Aqua tail, Waterfall, Surf and Hydro pump.

Rules
-Please state what Pokemon you are using, with which type and the version you are using when you sign up.
-Don't forget to update.
-The challenge is over when you beat the E4.
-You may use as many HM slaves as you want, they can have mixed type attacks, but they're not allowed to battle.
-No hacking
-No Spamming
-No Flaming
-All PC rules apply
-Have fun!

Tips
-Choose the type of the attacks you want the same as the pokemons type, so you'll get STAB over it, though you don't have to do this.
-Try making ur moveset as usefull as possible, with Physical and Special moves of that type.
-Not every pokemon has the same type, you choose another type for each pokemon you are going to use.
-Combine it with another challenge to make it harder! A monotype attack challenge with a regular monotype challenge is a lot harder, since ur prefered type of moves will be ur pokemon's side type and 1 pokemon without side type or just one for the type of monotype challenge.

Good luck and have fun!

PS, you can start without me saying you can.

Here's something I think you should veto:

To make the challenge more interesting. Let's say you want Torterra with Ground moves, but you can only give it 3, a Starmie with Electric moves, but you can only give it 2, and a Charizard with Dragon, but it only gets 3. It could really add some versatility into the challenge, if someone would so wish to do that. As for the extra move slots, eihter keep them empty or try to find a same-type status/stat move.

I will gladly take this challenge after I complete the Scramble challenge! :D

This challenge actually sounds pretty easy. Back before I learned what makes a good moveset, I used to always make my pokémon learn nothing but moves from their own type (not counting HM distribution, though). I never had that much of a problem back then.

Well, you must delete Focus energy or use normal type moves.
-Chansey Must have -Def nature and must know double edge.
Normal Moves
-Magikarp. Must evolve at Lv44 and has to keep Splash until the end of my game.

Well, Splash doesn't do anything, so I guess it's not a problem,
-Shinx it may evolve at lvl 14 but if I evolve it then it may not evolve into Luxray.If I evolve it at lvl 30 I may evovle it into Luxray.Must have Rivalry
Electric Moves

Team:
Machamp for Fight
Toxicroak for Poison.
Infernape for Fire.
Medicham for Psychic.

And 2 HM slaves.

Shinx evolves at level 15. Just putting that out there.

I might try this challenge. I'll see if I want too, but I don't often continue my challenges. I just kind of get bored of them.

Edit:

Here is my Team:

Luxray - Electric
Charge
Spark
Thunder Fang
Discharge

Lopunny - Normal
Return
Dizzy Punch
Charm
Quick Attack

Rapidash - Fire
Flame Wheel
Fire Blitz
Sunny Day
Fire Blast

Absol - Dark
Sucker Punch
Night Slash
Payback
Dark Pulse

Froslass - Ice
Ice Shard
Ice Beam
Avalanche
Hail

Azumarill - Water
BubbleBeam
Aqua Tail
Aqua Ring
Hydro Pump

These will be their final move sets.

The objective is to play the entire game through. This challenge is officially over after you defeat the E4.

Yeah, Zacceh is right, you completed the challenge after beating the elite four.

Too bad my Diamond rom isn't working, so I can't play. I'll also set one up for other gens so you can try participating there.
