Hello! My name is Ryu-kun, and this is my first Gen IV challenge.

IDEA:
You have to make your team based on 1 of the basic stats. (Attack, Defence, Speed, SP.Attack and SP.Defence.)
Ex. If you choose ATK. as your highest stat, you can be expected to use Pokémon like Rampardos and Machamp. IF however the Pokémon you would like to use, has same base stats in Ex. ATK and DEF, you need to get a nature that gets your wanted stat higher than the other stat.

RULES:
-You may use HM slaves, BUT they may not battle
-You have to get your first challenge Pokémon BEFORE Gardenia.
-NO LEGENDS. That takes all the fun off this.
-NO CHEATING. <read above reason>
-The challenge is finished when you beat the Elite 4 the second time (PT) or the first time (DP)
-Only EGG trading is allowed.

People taking this Challenge:
mondays suck DIAMOND
SP.Def

HallwayKid PLATINUM
SP.Def

pikakip DIAMOND
Speed

I'll take the Special Defense challenge on Diamond.



possible line-up:

- Budew (Roselia and Roserade have more Sp.A than Sp.D.) -> Blissey (i think it's allowed, since HP doesn't count)
- Dustox -> Mr. Mime
- Tentacruel / Mantine
- Noctowl (same as Blissey)
- Bronzong (requires +SpA nature)

Hello there Mondays Suck.
Oops... Did I forget to mention HP... I'm screwed.
But anyways, does it really matter?
I think I'll add you up right now.

P.S: Remember me from the Advanced Generation sub-forum?

EDIT: Yeah... Making a team out of HP based Pokémon is Pretty difficult.
Sooo... HP does not count

This looks interesting. I will be doing this with the Sp. Defense stat.

Vulpix (Speed decreasing or Sp. Defense increasing nature)
Ledian
Grumpig (Not Rash Nature)
Cradily (Not Sp. Defense decreasing or Defense increasing nature)
Mismagius (Sp. Defense increasing nature)
Lumineon (Speed decreasing or Sp. Defense increasing nature)

Oh, I didn't specify what game I was using. I am actually using Platinum in my playthrough. I am trading eggs over of all my Pokemon except Lumineon. I am going to catch Finneon myself. I just like Platinum a bit better than Pearl.


Update:

I have my 5 eggs hatched now. Lileep is getting to be such a pain to train.

Vulpix (Quiet Nature)
Level 9


Misdreavus (Calm Nature)
Level 9


Spoink (Bold Nature)
Level 8


Ledyba (Naughty Nature)
Level 8


Lileep (Brave Nature)
Level 5


Turtwig (HM Slave)
Level 9

No, i didn't forget about this, i'm just running too many challenges at once, since DPPt challenges take a long time to finish, but most challenges posted are for DPPt...

Anyways, i just started, chose Turtwig and lost to the first Youngster with a Lv. 5 Starly, without having saved before. That sucks, i'll have to do all the boring professor talk stuff again now... Next time I'll choose Chimchar....

I've decided to go with Sp. Attack,I'm gonna go decide on my team before I begin the challenge but if I decide that Sp. Attack isn't right for me, I'll tell you in advance.
I do Let's Plays: Mrflyingivysaur
