^ Meh, a set amount of damage is better than that, to me. XD I do love butterfree though... I do try to use a butterfree in my challenges, so I may switch my team up a bit to include her, XD

Grrr, my save file won't load. Getting a fatal error -.- Gotta Restart... Hopefully there are Spinarak out at 8 PM :S

EDIT: Back to having Charlotte. -.- Only took way too much of my time to get back there, XD I hope B/W have the running shoes as a basic thing, >_<

^ Rofl.

Well, I fought my way to Violet City... Fell to Falkner about 30 times... leveled up 2 more levels... lost about 10 more times, but FINALLY...



This will essentially be what my pics will be... Important Battles, Events, etc. As well as a screenie of each gym leader's pokemon, as well as the last shot before the gym leader's pokemon fell. The "obtained the ___ badge" A pic of my badges, and then finally a pic outside the pokemart with my current lead with To Be Continued on it :P

Current Team:~

Charlotte the Spinarak
Poison Sting
Leech Life
Night Shade
Constrict

EDIT: And if you're curious, I essentially just poisoned Pidgeotto (that took forever ._.) then spammed potions while poison killed him. Only took about 5. I was SOOOO thankful he didn't Roost and didn't crit. XD

And I also just realized that Charlotte will be my only pokemon until AFTER my first rival fight... O_O *shoots self* XD

Furret was my only poke until I got.. Stantler, which is after the 3rd gym.

And I got 10 Miltanks now to compare stats and 5 Tauroses for fun, and NOT A SINGLE FREAKING SNUBBULL.

EDIT: MUAHAHAH SNUBBULL.

Decided to get one more gym in before I went to bed, XD Went a lot smoother than expected. In future, images this size will probably not be in spoilers, but anything bigger will :P




Current Team:~



Charlotte the Ariados
Poison Sting
Fury Swipes
Night Shade
Shadow Sneak

Soon, I'll be catching a Pineco and a Heracross to boost my team. :3 I was debating Paras, but meh. Not worth it. I may catch one to have a pokemon with Cut to get through the forest though, XD

Your Ariados is hax. Really.

Paras is not worth it. It dies to anything. Like anything. From personal experience.

Pineco is found on the trees above the person that teaches you headbutt, I believe.

Totally agree lol.

Pokemon HGSS Monotype Challenge V2!
Update #8

Fun with my Stantler! Named it Dolfy, from Rudolf I guess. Started training it @ the skipped trainers before and after Goldenrod City.
I got a few stuff in the process, from the nonmentioned Rock Smash HM to the Hard Stone from Thursday Arthur!





Well, Team Rocket is retarded for trying to flirt with that pretty girl who's my friend! Eh, wait, aren't all the Kimono Girls the same?

And onto Route 38, Normal Pokemon's paradise. The hunt starts.. for Snubbull! Caught Miltank (first Pokemon I met!), Tauros and Meowth as possible candidates to my team.





That said it.

The next one appeared after at least 3 in-game hours. (Emulator -> ~1 hour)




I can definitely open a Moo Moo farm complete with bonus showcase of charging Bulls.
Did you catch the last picture? I hope you did. Girafarig here we go!





All the fun I had with my new mates made me forget that I NEED Kangaskhan to be in my team. Bye, Snubbull.. That's after hours of work.

I kinda forgot to catch screens of the Burned Tower as I was too fascinated by how Level 14 Miltank thrashes half of Someone's Pokemon.. Sorry.
But I'm gifted I guess since Suicune (I actually typed its name as Suicide in the first try) took notice of me. XD



And Morty dies to Psybeam. :) (plus a few Quick Attacks from Furry)


Furry - LV27 Furret

- Headbutt

Updates!!

So I made it to Violet City after Hours of Grinding with "Wee Yin" at level 14 and "Mercury" at Level 12. I headed straight to the Sprout Tower and defeated all of the sages easily using Murkrow's peck attack.

Defeated the Elder and got the HM for Flash. At the end of Sprout Tower "Mercury" was amazingly level 15 ( I didn't expect him to level up that much in Sprout Tower :D )

Feeling Confident I headed straight to the Gym to take on Falkner I let Mercury take on the two regular trainers there and he leveled up to level 16.

So I switched "Wee Yin" to the front of my party and defeated Falkner easily using Rock Slide.

Current Team:

"Wee Yin" the Larvitar
Naive Nature
Level 16
-Bite
-Leer

Update:
• Purposely went through the long path to Mr. Pokemon's house to train Kiro.
• Got the Mystery Egg. Pretty Mysterious. I continue training Kiro and Gojira.
• I come across this strange and arrogant redheaded boy who used a Chikorita. I beat him with Gojira, who was at Level 2. Thank goodness for Dragon Dance. I found out that his name was 'Naoya'.
• Returned to Prof.'s Lab. Got accused of stealing Chikorita, but thankfully Lyra came and said that a redheaded boy did it. It must be Naoya.
• Trained Gojira a bit so he could catch up with Kiro.

Man, you guys made Falkner look so easy.. I had trouble with my Sentret, it just keeps getting pawned by Tackle. lol..

Does Wee Yin have any special meaning?

• I come across this strange and arrogant redheaded boy who used a Chikorita. I beat him with Gojira, who was at Level 2. Thank goodness for Dragon Dance. I found out that his name was 'Naoya'.
Could've used Ice Punch to beat Chikorita to hell.. But lol beating him with your Level 2 Larvitar sure is impressive stuff.

I'm progressing really fast, and if I don't update now, the updates stacked up will be ultra big zzz. But I don't feel like playing if I have too much updates.. And I'm really desperate to get my Kangaskhan lol.

Also, my Quiet Girafarig is not exactly performing well.. Getting pawned by Chuck proves that (although it's 3 levels lower). I'm starting to think whether its role can be replaced by Stantler.

I used Raticate and Tauros for chuck. I got my attacks off faster and hit harder than him. It helps that they were both jolly nature =]
Hi EJ.

Oh wells I did a few soft resets for Poliwrath to stop using Surf, so that Girafarig could Psybeam it to death. I'm a bit troubled at my -Speed nature.. I seriously have the impulse to remove it from my team. I think I'll train it up a bit first to see how good it is; after all Stantler can't learn all special moves and forgo his higher attack I guess..

Or you could grind miltank until it learns zen headbutt.
But Zen Headbutt is physical.. Oh well it might not matter anyway, except for urm.. Weezing? And Girafarig gets STAB on the Psychic attacks.

I think I'll update tomorrow. Don't want to spam too much updates in a day lol.

Lol, I suppose the Normal type is the hardest to start with due to the moves. I could just go through sprout tower using peck, then just use rock slide in Falkners gym where you wouldn't have any super effective moves at that point, Would you?. I think you've got one of the biggest challenges so far :P

Oh, "Wee Yin" just means "Small One" in Scottish slang. So when Larvitar fully evolves into a Tyranitar i'll probably have to change the nickname to "Big Yin" :)

I got out of union cave and cleared team rocket out of slowpoke well. Nyx took out bugsy's gym and most of my rival's team with the help of Steel and Yin. Then Steel and I found the farfetched and got through ilex forest. (i taught cut to violet the quilava) Now I'm in Goldenrod city leveling up Steel, Yin and Nyx preparing to defeat Whitney.

Well Miltank's best attacking stat is her physical one sooooo.....zen headbutt is the way to go. She's also very fast which would help you out.
Haha EJ I meant that if I drop Girafarig, I would only have 1 Special attacker in my team (Stantler, and it's only half one) and I would probably have problems when it comes to erm.. Forretress or something? I don't know atm.

And Miltank is a BEAST. She rips through EVERYTHING.

Pokemon HGSS Monotype Challenge V2!
Update #9

Well I lost my whole 90% completed update halfway because I accidentally clicked back. GOSH.



Miltank basically decimated everything at Route 38 and 39. She just can't fall.



Lighthouse fun! Rollout means I save PP. :)



Jasmine needs potions!



Off to Cianwood! Water routes were fast due to Miltank + Girafarig. :)
And I saw Suicide! I mean Suicune. Challenged by Eusine after, which was effortlessly thrashed.



Fighting gym trainers were (almost) a breeze thanks to Girafarig, if only it wasn't that frail..



The battle wasn't that easy - I had to soft reset a few times for Poliwrath to stop using Surf goddamnit so that Girafarig won't get 2HKOed.
Grr... Flew back to Olivine for Jasmine. Actually I just wanted Safari Zone to open. :D





We wait for Baoba to prepare his second challenge.
