Woah, you really have low levels. Judging by your current levels, you might want to try the route below Safari Zone; it's got pretty good Pokemon @ Tauros and Fearow, Levels 20-24 iirc (probably the highest you can get right now).

Or you could try Ice Cave, yes you can access that area before defeating Radio Tower, should be quite good.

Kk, thx, I looked and the e4 is only Lv. 40-50, so I think I'll just super train my nidoqueen, graveler, and quagsire to take them out, and since I don't have a pokemon with fly and I'm stuck in goldenrod, how am I going to train? Oh well, I'll kill the rocket boss, then go to ice cave, and I'm so saving clair for later

Sorry for not updating, spent the whole day grinding in preparation for Red. Anyway my Pokemon are kind of overleveled for where I should be at the moment now. But better safe than sorry. Don't want to turn up at Red with Pokemon 20 levels behind his :P

Edit: In case your wondering how I grinded I basically done the E4 over and Over again all day, So you can imagine how I didnt update :P

@Ian_Watkins: Haha you could have told me =P

I'm very sorry, I'll correct that right away. Do you have a line that you would like immortalized? Also I think you're our first female champion. I'll double check. Oh polkop was #1, nvm xD

That's Brock and Blaine down now. Only Blue left then on to Red.

@Ian Watkins, Nice quote ;)

Edit: Blue's down and out. Onto Red, maybe I'll beat him first time, maybe it'll take me 50 soft reset's. Either way I'll keep you updated

Well, Im at Red, Hope it goes well *Gulp*

There's my first soft reset :/

This is Impossible. My pokemon are mostly the same level as his, yet every one of his Pokemon have a move which is super effective agains mine >=(

5 soft resets now. I'll get there eventually

6 Resets. Basically Blastoise has a moveset which contain moves that are super effective against every one of my Pokemon :(

I think i've got him on the ropes here :) Pikachu, Blastoise and Lapras are down ;)

Scary moment there with Venasaur, Took Tyranitar down to about a quarter health, but I crit-killed it with Stone Edge =), Getting really lucky this time :)

Snorlax's health is Massive :P

3 Earthquakes and it's still there :/

Damn Full Restore :(

It's down! 4 earthquakes and the last one was a Crit :P

Anyway Im done!, Charizard was a peice of Cake, 2 surfs from Sharpedo was enough to take it down. Lapras was tricky just due to it's HP but didn't really do any major damage. Pikachu was a Pikachu really, Fast but OHKO from an Earthquake. Snorlax didnt do major damage but it's health was extremely high. Venesaur was pretty half and half it did a lot of Damage but only because I missed twice. Blastoise was a real pain due to it's health and it's stupid super-effective against every one of my Pokemon moveset, I got lucky in the end though I got a crit crunch, It missed with focus blast and I got another crit with crunch which was enough to take it out :)

It's been great fun I have to say, I enjoyed getting replay value out of my Heart gold game. Im definately going to do a dragon mono-type after I do an Ultimate solo challenge. :)

Stupid Elm and his stupider Eggs. Why do I have to lug this around anyways? Couldn't he have pawned this thing off to Lyra? Screw it, I'm making an omelet. You escaped me once, PokeOmelet. It won't happen again...



Pretty lights...



Way to ruin the mood, *******. Can't you all go die in a fire somewhere?



No, I will not. I am a heartless man, caring only for myself. In reality, I'm a city boy. That took the midnight train going...

Hell yeah! I love fishing. This is gonna be awesome.



...**** you too.



I heard about your Magikarp Power. I am intrigued. Show me this 'Power' of yours, Magikarp. Use that high-powered Splash attack!



Poli! You have no freaking idea how long it took to catch one of these.



Or one of them.



Or even one of these. Poli attacked the weak point for massive damage.

Spoiler:
For anyone doubting the authenticity of those last two captures, check bulbapedia. It plainly states that Goldeen can be caught in Dark Cave, and Krabby in Cherrygrove City. I checked...twice...then thrice.

Oh yeah, I cut out all the level grinding, which is why it seems like Poliwag jumped seven levels. No one wants to read about how I totally owned that n00b Bellsprout with Derp's Slam attack, right?




Oh
Mah
Gawd!

...Sweet.



Gyarados @ Level 20
- Bite
- Splash
- Tackle



Wooper @ Level 17
- Water Gun
- Tail Whip
- Slam
- Mud Shot


Krabby @ Level 17
- Mud Sport
- BubbleBeam
- ViceGrip
- Leer


Croconaw @ Level 18
- Scratch
- Leer
- Water Gun
- Bite


Goldeen @ Level 17
- Peck
- Water Pulse
- Horn Attack
- Supersonic


Poliwag @ Level 17
- DoubleSlap
- Bubble
- Hypnosis
- Water Gun

Pokemon I Plan on Catching: Slowpoke, Horsea, Chinchou, Corsola, Marill, Psyduck, Seel, Staryu, Vaporeon.

tl;dr

I'm gonna catch every ****ing Water-type Pokemon that I can for this challenge.

Sleet, do you want any words immortalized? Congrats to both of you guys btw.
Ermm... I cant think of anything quirky or quick witted so i'll just copy a famous one with my own twist. How about "I came I grinded, I failed a few times, but finally. I conquered". It's not the best but it'll do ;)

^ Happens on occasion with emulators, for god knows what reason. Happened to me right before I was fighting Falkner the first time.

Anyway, defeated Blaine and Blue. Grinding for Red right now. (I'll post the pics of Blaine/Blue when I post pics of Red. XD)

I would pick Carvanha. Sharpedo is a great underrated pokemon. Once he's packing aqua jet, crunch, ice fang, waterfall/surf then he's sweet.

I just remembered my sig roflmao..:that was unintentional haha

Could've OHKOed through Stone Edge. :D

I thought of doing a Dragon monotype too.. I might try it after my ultimate solo challenge.

I totally LOLed at this.

Woah, I totally didn't know that. What about Poliwag? Water types really get a lot of choices eh.. Sounds fun.

My save file got corrupted. Damn. I gotta do this again from the start T_T
I'm really sorry to hear that oh man.

Don't grind!! :D

Yeah sometimes if you see "Memory messed up." from no$gba, good luck.

Poliwag I caught in Violet City, by mistake actually. When I was reading Bulbapedia, I thought it said it had a 15% Encounter Rate in Violet City, as opposed to to 5% Rate everywhere else with the Old Rod. Come to find out, I screwed up and read the original G/S/C Encounter Rate list.

So, in the end, I went back to Violet City for nothing. Worked out though, since Dark Cave was just next door, and Cherrygrove just two routes away.

Also, as soon as I get the Good Rod, I'm going back to New Bark Town and catching me a Chinchou. But first, catching a Slowpoke in Slowpoke Well.

Edit: Oh shi-! Just found out I can catch a Tentacruel on Route 32 with my Old Rod. Oh hell yeah, I'm so catching that.
