Elite 4 time!
Spoiler:


Yeah, I accumulated quite a lot of money up to this point.
After applying the Rare Candies, Stantler was at level 85, this should suffice by far.

Let's do it.

Lorelei:

That Lapras was a major pain with Confuse Ray. The rest was easy though, not even Slowbro could take a T-Bolt.

Obligatory.

Bruno:

Machamp did actually survive a hit, but all it did was Scary Face, about which I didn't care.

Agatha:

Easiest one so far.

Lance:

Gyara's Intimidate made 'Nite annoying. But just annoying, not dangerous.


Some last preparations...


Champion battle is up. And it was epic, the most epic champion battle I ever fought.
Spoiler:


Whether I was needing that crit or not, it was nice. Better than getting Sand-Attacked or Featherdanced.

No problem at all.

Survived, damn. Well, 2 Full Restores later it died anyways.

As seen here.

Come on, that's like 1 HP left.

Against Bruno, this didn't bother me, but this time it was frightening.

But, at least Rhydon died without doing any further damage.

I hate being slow.

Should have brought some X-Speed or something... Or better: X-Attack...

This is it. The final battle that will decide everything. There can be only one, and will it be Stantler or Charizard?

Nice start for me, but knowing that it can both outspeed me and use Fire Blast is unpleasant.

Not unexpected at all. The next 2 rounds both went like this.

Oh shi-...

Seriously, I was expecting ANYTHING, but not this. Not surviving with 1 HP.

This was seriously the closest thing ever, especially when considering Nuzlocke's rule would have applied to Stantler and I would have lost this entire challenge otherwise.




...Bulbasaur? Does Oak suffer from Alzheimer's disease?

The obligatory Hall of Fame screenshot


Seriously, something is wrong with Oak...


Oh well, since the 2nd Elite 4 isn't necessary (and I would probably lose anyways), here's my final Stantler.

On to Johto. I'm not sure yet if I'll go with Gold as planned or try Heart Gold, we shall see later.

So, I did some research and found out the Rom crashing problem is still present in HGSS, so Gold it is.
Spoiler:


Settings

...but they said this was "Cyndaquil the Fire Pokemon"...

So very fitting for a female Pokemon, that name is.

Cake of piece

What has been seen cannot be unseen.

I think I'm going to die...

...or not. That 2 HP were lost in a wild Pokemon battle before this by the way.

Hell no, I don't want my money spent on dolls.

Close call. After a missed Tackle (that would have finished Pidgeotto off) and the subsequent Gust, Stantler only had 2 HP left. But, the next Tackle hit so I won.

An Egg?

No, thanks, I'm not in need.


Nothing really special up to this point.

I picked out my starter of Nidoran♂ which replaced Bulbasaur. So my rival has a Charmander. Beat the first rival easy but didn't record that as well thats not necessary to win.

Waltzed and did the whole Pokédex stuff and then went to face Gary before the Pokémon league

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bHnxl-CxOg

Only trouble with gary would have been his Sand-attack but bar that he was easy.

Travelled to Viridian Forest and made it through there with ease and then i had a brain fart. I forgot that you don't learn double kick early on red, thats only on yellow.

Still managed to beat brock fine though

I'll update when i've done misty and 2nd Gary.

Goooood Luck My Friend.

You will get irritated fast.

I done a Dratini run for a while but I gave up because Wrap is a crap move and it takes forEVER to kill.

Gooooood Luck.

Here is my first video (should be better quality next time):

mondays, how the F*** did you beat youngster Joey's Ratatta? Did you hear that its in the top percentage of all Ratattas? You know what I'm saying? You're like a god among men.
>implying it's not like my Stantler is in the top percentage of Stantler

Well yeah, that was my strategy: Fight fire with fire. The only way to beat top percentage Pokemon is using top percentage Pokemon as well. Better top percentage Pokemon. An idea only a god among men could come up with.

By the way, because I'm lazy as hell (and had sports in the afternoon) today, there will be no update until tomorrow. I know, I'm a terrible person

Hey, I'm probably going to attempt this. I saw this through Shadowblitz's Youtube channel and thought why not, so signed up and here I am! I'm going to use Bulbasaur and play Fire Red, Gold, Emerald and then Platinum all being well. First update should be around tomorrow sometime.

Good luck to everyone else!

So got quite far here is the video update!

Spoiler:




So far so good. The first Gary battle wasn't too bad but I thought Pidgey knew Gust so I was careful but he didn't use it. Charmander was easy as he didn't know ember... yet. Brock was pathetic but got me evolved. The second Gary battle was tough. Pidgeotto was ok but lowered my accuracy causing problems later. Charmander is deadly now. I managed to poison and seed him and then just heal. I barely made it but Abra and Rattata fell easy. Phew.

There are only a few problems I can see with Fire Red at the moment. Gary battles will be tough as he has a few pokemon that can do 2x damage against me. There is Charmander, Abra, Exeggcute AND Pidgey. Oh well. There is also Blaine and Sabrina but I'll deal with them when I get there.
Watch me complete some awesome games!

Update time!

Vs. Bugsy
Spoiler:

People told me fury cutter would be a pain in the ass here.
However, you'll see I have a solution right here.

Vs. Silver (2)
Spoiler:

This was a much more worrying battle. One of his Pokes I couldn't even hit and had to sleepseed it to beat, and another had super effective on me.
As you can see though, I managed to scrape through quite well.

Since I have a tendency for doing insane challenges for fun and stuff I figure, hey, why not? I could do something "fun" like Sunkern but, nah, probably a wee bit too difficult so I'll throw my hat into the ring with the Marill family (Azurill, Marill, Azumarill) since whilst not quite as difficult it should still be balls hard and I'm all about that.

Much like my good buddy, xShadowBlitzx, I'll be recording the important details but I'll also probably record me whining incessently via Audacity if I get the time/think it's warranted for that video (in some cases I'm sure it will be...). I'll also try to avoid grinding, if ever possible, since where's the challenge when you just walk over everything. I'll try to post every day, every other day at the latest, but if I don't then it's likely because I'm at a wall and thus need to grind like crazy.

Tl;dr: doing Marill stuff. Fire Red -> Gold -> Sapphire -> Diamond
