The Alphabet Challenge
The way this challenge works is quite simple.

You choose a letter from the alphabet, anyone you want.

Than, you select 1-6 Pokemon thhat has a name that begins with that letter.

Legendaries will be allowed, but it will be more fun if you didn't use the.

Than, you choose whatever game you want to use your 1-6 Pokemon in.

Just like that, and once you're all registered, you can begin your quest.





The game will be over in every game but Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold and SoulSilver once you defeat the Elite Four.

The challenge will be over in Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold and SoulSilver when you defeat Red in Mt. Silver.


Rules

Even if the Pokemon you chose for your quest can evolve at any point in the game, if it's evolution doesn't start with the smae letter as you chose, you can't evolve it.

If you do choose a Pokemon that begins with a letter but needs to evolve from another to become it (E.X, you chose the letter H and you were going to use Huntail, you'd need to evolve it from Clamperl since you can't catch it the wild).

I will give you until the first gym of any of the games to have at least 1 of the Pokemon you chose. After that, you can only battle with that one unless you get another Pokemon with that same letter later on.

If needed to, you can trade an Egg of a Pokemon you need from one game to the one you will be using for the challenge.

If in any case you will need to hack to get a specific Pokemon, please message me and I'll give you my consent or not.

Also, not all letters have 6 Pokemon who's name begin with it.Some only have one (E.x, Xatu is the currently only Pokemon with the letter X)

HAVE FUN!

No no no, it doesn't mess it up. You're allowed to to do that. But would like some more B Pokemon or is Bayleef all you want?

I'll do this on Sapphire, because it is the only avaliable emulator atm.

Username: Myrrhman
Game name: A
Game: Sapphire
Letter: S
Team: Starmie, Swampert, Sableye, Salamence, Shiftrey, and Steelix

That would be my final team. Although it is going to end up being more of Swampert, Starmie, Sableye because I'll be too lazy to go get the others.

I'm in a couple other challenges right now though, so I'll start this when I'm done.

Go time.

Started w/ Bulbasuar, blah blah beat Brock caught Geodude. Named it Sentinel
Sentinel and I became best buds
We beat Mt. Moon together
We beat LOZER together
We beat Nugget Bridge together
We saved Bill together
We then heard that there was a tough water trainer to fight. We didn't think we were ready, so we headed to the ship that Bill gave us a ticket for. On the way, he evolved into a Graveler!
When we got to the next town, a strange man contacted us online. He said that he was looking for a Graveler, and that he would power it up for me. He didn't just power up Sentinel, he evolved him for me! I thanked him and went on my way.
We went back and defeated Misty, the water master, on our first try.
We went back and defeated Lt. Surge, the Lightning American with one hits.
We made it through the Rock Tunnel
We singlehandedly took down Giovanni's operation under Rocket Game Corner.

Just a heads up guys, Thorns isn't going to run the challenge anymore. I'm still going to update here, but if anyone wants to remake the challenge, then we could all go there.

Update 2/3 (I think)

Sentinel and I cleared out Rocket Game corner and got the Silph Scope.
We caught a Gastly (Scourge), and beat the Pokemon Tower (Scourge evolved into a Haunter in the process).
The same guy contacted me and evolved Scourge for me! Yay! I used my new Gengar to take down Erika.
Koga was next. Earthquake FTW.
Then Blaine. EQ FTW.
Silph Co was the last time I got to take down Rockets... :( LOZER was no challenge, what with the Rock Slide, EQ, Thunderbolt, Mega Punch, Rock Slide combo.
Sabrina was tricky. Sentinel didn't have enough special to withstand Alakazam's Psychic... But its okay, because Scourge was faster than Alakazam, and he was taken out by a Hypnosis/Revive/EQ combo.
To Giovanni! Scourge destroyed his gym with Mega Drain and Psychic.
Saved and quit.
