Geodude Solo Run Part One

Decided to change from my Magnemite run as it seems like this solo run would be a little too easy plus I had Magnemite as my main on my first run through and he effectively fought most of the battles himself. Was initially going to obtain a Poliwag from the Pokewalker for my challenge. However after spending 300w on my pokewalker and not encountering one I decided to try a real Challenge and use a Geodude (Not Evolving)

  • So after a relaxing morning of watching the TV I decide I better leave my room. Its no fun living in a small area surrounded by grass which I cannot enter. Now if only I could afford a Lawnmower.... Then again am I old enough to use one?
  • Anyways "Mother" tells me I have to do an errand for the Professor. Looks like I have to go meet Mr. Pokemon. So I choose the grass type pokemon (Knowing my Rival will choose Fire which is something Geodude can laugh at).
  • I return to see my mother who gives me my pokegear (Which I have never seen before??)
  • Get Some Running shoes of some speedy old man. Now I go twice as fast :D
  • Finally get to Mr Pokemons house and recieve the egg and pokedex after being harrassed by some guy and his Apricorns.
  • Encounter the redhaired boy on the way to the Lab after a strange phonecall from the Prof. His trainer card said his name was "Graham"
  • Finally got access to pokeballs after being shown by Lyra... Yeah like I didn't know already..
Currently catching Geodudes to get a good nature and an Everstone so he won't Evolve. I Will update/edit in first Gym Asap. Apologies for the three changes today
Just a little tip, if you don't want the pokemon to evolve just press B when the evolving starts.

That will leave you to be able to give Geodude the item that ups rock or groud attacks... Or leftovers... Always a good thing to give a pokemon... Especially one with high defense and low HP...

I've had a few requests to make this hack an actual thing now. So I'm re-inserting the tileset into an earlier, non-corrupted file.



Let me know if you want the beta 0.5.

Thanks for the advice A. Although I was enjoying my Geodude Walkthrough(Was suprised at how he owned almost everything) I kept getting this niggling feeling that I still wanted to do my Poliwag run and in the end I gave in. I have to unlock the route again this time I'll catch that Poliwag!!

I will update tomorrow sometime after I have done the first 2 gyms. Looking at Poliwags starting moves this could be a laugh.

Also could anyone suggest a good HM Slave to catch early on?

Poliwag can learn surf, it's a high powered water attack aswell.
I just caught pokemon that can use the HM when i need to... lol

Quick Update:

Beat Clair and caught Lugia. But wtf the dragon person old man person won't give me the dratini with Extremespeed o.O Oh well. I'm currently at Victory Road.
As you can see, I am pregressing very slowly, but I haven't had much time lately. I was playing last night but then saved and turned the game off because I was too lazy to go through Victory Road :@

UPDATE 2:

Beat the Elite Four.
Was VERY easy, like no joke. Arbok whooped Will's a** with Crunch. Koga's pokemon weren't that difficult, just used Screech to lower defense and then hit them. Bruno's pokemon were...easy. [Insert 4th leader because I forgot here name -_-] was fairly easy. Now LANCE.
Lance, lance, lance, lance, lance. Let's just say Ice Fang did all the work :]

Won with:
Arbok level 66
-Gunk Shot
-Screech
-Ice Fang
-Crunch

After that, boarded the ship to Vermillion and beat Lt. Surge.

Since the last update, all I've done really is get the 5th/6th badges, as well as the Red/Shiny Gyarados, Eevee, the first task of the Safari Zone, and another Sun Stone with a Beedrill in the Bug-Catching Contest. In addition, I spent a couple of days getting Apricorns and Voltorb Flip coins for a Dratini. Gotta admit, though, Voltorb Flip is a pain since it doesn't save progress. I made it up to level 7 once so I had to keep going till it dropped me down to 1. My newest save is in front of the shop in Mahogany, though I'm too lazy to get Cyndaquil's current stats. Just know that the team is still the same as last time, except Cyndaquil's gone up a few levels since.

Hmm. This looks like fun. :] I'm gonna play through with a steelix. Starting as an onix that I'll transfer over from my pearl version. I'll just give it the metal coat, trade it over, and voila, my steelix with which i can kick everyone's butt's with.

Finished the Mahogany Rockets arc, catching a Voltorb and two Electrodes in the process. Then went and took on Pryce: badge 7 is mine. Took a while since I forgot Dewgong was part Ice (because Seel was pure Water) and I was attempting to Swift it to death. Just finished doing yet another Bug Catching Contest, this time placing 3rd with a Beedrill (a Caterpie and Venonat took 2nd and 1st, respectively). Somewhen before, though, I did the second Safari Zone task and gained the title of owner (why should an owner pay?). Also got the final Pokéathlon medal for Cyndaquil: the Power Medal (Team: Red Gyarados/Seaking).

Time : 23:40
Pokédex: 53
Pokemon:
Cyndaquil Lvl. 51 w/ Shell Bell
HP /Atk/Def/Sp. Atk/Sp. Def/Speed
125/73/71/83/63/103

Pidgey: Fly
Rattata: Cut/Rock Smash

I did this already before I saw the thread or these forums at all for that matter.

AvianAzure
Used my Tauros Kent who at the end of it all is lvl 87
Beat Red's entire team at lvl 84 and then decided to fight the E4 again gaining his last three levels

Dunno if you want to add me or not since I already did it but I did either way, your thread your decision
For all the points of the compass there is only one direction, and time is its only measure.

IN the beginning i had hatched him grinded him to lvl 5 and then went on my journey I easily beat the gyms except for the fact that gible stopped listening to me so I there was a tiny bit of annoyance. Then after I quickly breezed through every gym and finally got to red. So I grinded my newly made garchomp to lvl 100 hundred on the elite four since he could take them down super easily and then finally i went to beat him and it was amazing i used outrage and it destoryed his pokemon and earthquake on his pikachu so i finished
