Alright, update three, which can be found on the link in my signature, (though it won't be the most recent, my bad). For those who have no interest aside from the bare minimum, though, here's the new update:

Beat Brock with Vine Whip. (Verto)
Caught Spearow, named it Vearow.
Got to Mt. Moon, caught Zubat, named it Vambat.

Smallish update, but that's because it's the bare minimum of what happened in the video.
Currently LPing Pokemon FireRed: Nuzlocke Style.

I'll just post where I am right now and stuff. I'll have an actual update soon.

My character's name is GAZ (I chose the female player, because... I wanted to.)
I saved while training MIMI the Meowth. I have 2 badges. I'm gonna head to Vermilion City(I think) after I finish training MIMI.

ZIM the Bulbasaur (Male / Lv. 24)
-Tackle
-PoisonPowder
-Sleep Powder
-Razor Leaf

MIMI the Geodude (Female / Lv. 20) (Yes, I know Meowth has the same nickname. I got Meowth after Geodude, and thought the name was more fitting for a Meowth, so I'll change it in Lavender Town.)
-Tackle
-Defense Curl
-Magnitude
-Rock Throw

MIMI the Meowth (Female / Lv. 14) (Currently training)
-Scratch
-Growl
-Bite

Dead: (I'm gonna re-use some of the nicknames because there's a limited amount of Invader Zim characters)

Started my challenge at Pallet Town, naming myself Red and my rival Blue on the process.

I chose Charmander as my starter, named him Volvagia, honoring the boss of one of the greatest Nintendo games, ever. =P
Blue's Squirtle almost makes this run a short one, but in the end Volvagia prevailed.

On Route 1, I found a Pidgey. Couldn't catch it, though, since I didn't have Pokéballs yet. My next stop was the patch of grass on Route 22, in which I found a Spearow. Sadly, a critical hit from Volvagia made the catch impossible.
Route 2 proved to be successful. Another Pidgey was found, this time catching it. Named it Boeing.
Viridian Forest's first pokémon was a Pikachu. A rare sight indeed. I caught it and named it Sparks. I'm so bright.

With my new team, I braved myself against Blue's Pidgey and Squirtle. I made the first of many (I have no doubt) mistakes sending Sparks to fight his Pidgey. A veteran on the field of pokébattles, Pidgey ripped Sparks fur with its sharp talons. Three fatal hits, and Sparks was down for good, sadly. Volvagia and Boeing had no trouble finishing the fight, but the damage was already down. Sparks was down.

Mourning the loss of my recently deceased newfound friend, I ventured my way to Pewter City...

Current Team
:t004: Volvagia - Lv. 15. Met at Pallet Town at level 5.
:t016: Boeing - Lv. 14. Met at Route 2 at level 3.

The Crypt
:t025: Sparks - Lv. 6. Met at Viridian Forest at level 4

Box'd
None

Badges
None

---------------------------------------------

Opinions:
I feel quite lame about losing my first Pokémon without earning any badges xD

Yep, trade evos are absolutely fine. The only trade rule is that the Pokemon you have on your team must have your trainer ID - that is, it can't get boosted XP. So don't get someone else's Kadabra, but by all means trade yours to evolve it and then trade the Alakazam back.

That's one awesome Blasoise you have there. I should use these things more often, but I always seem to be picking Venusaur, because LEECH SEED.

As for my own run, I'm just being lazy. Too lazy. Where did I save again the last time? I think it was at Mauville where I wanted to get a TM or two, mainly for my new (well, not that new anymore now) Swablu.

thanks, I picked Blastoise because I've never used one before. Venasaur is a beast, but if you pick it, remember to get something to counter agatha with.
I also have a scizor who swept sabrina (sorry forgot to record :P) with swords dance and slash.

On Pewter City, we caught our new friend, Suarez the Rattata. Named after the Uruguayan forward, who sports pretty big teeth =P. Since his help wasn't needed at the moment, he was sent to Prof. Oak's lab via PC.

We wasted no time, and tried our luck against Brock. His rock-type pokémon were hard, but ended up succumbing at Volvagia's flames, and Boeing's sand attack. Our effort was rewarded by the BOULDERBADGE, a TM that I'll never use, and the evolution of both our friends. Congratulations, Volvagia, Boeing!

Onwards to route 3! Battled a couple of trainers, and got to the Pokémon Center at the foot of Mt. Moon. Since I hadn't captured any pokémon on that route yet, I took up the offer a fat man had there. 500 pokéyens for a Magikarp. An underrated pokémon that takes his work, but evolves into the mighty Gyarados. I named it Neptune, and started training.

On Mt. Moon, Dracula the Zubat joined the party, as well as a Dome Fossil that it is said that can be revived into a powerful pokémon. Team Rocket, the criminal organization, was standing guard here. With Volvagia, Boeing and Neptune, we made short work of them.

Route 4, Mt. Moon - Cerulean City. We got ourselves a couple of items, and a new friend joined us. Agate, the Ekans, who was sent alongside Dracula to Prof. Oak's lab, with Suarez.

And finally! Cerulean City! Blue Oak was there waiting for me. Volvagia and Boeing were furious and wanted to avenge Sparks, and Blue was eager to fight... Too bad our skills were too much for him.
I decided to pay a visit to the Pokémaniac Bill, catching an Abra (Psyfox, Route 24), and an Oddish (Bush, Route 25) on the way. Bush was sent to Prof. Oak's lab, but Psyfox stayed with us on our journey. On the way, Neptune evolved into Gyarados, and Psyfox into Kadabra. The team is taking shape, now we only have to challenge Misty, and move forward...

Current Team
:t005: Volvagia Lv. 24 (Met at Pallet Town, Lv. 5)
:t017: Boeing Lv. 20 (Met at Route 2, Lv. 5)
:t130: Neptune Lv. 21 (Met at Route 3, Lv. 5)
:t064: Psyfox Lv. 20 (Met at Route 25, Lv. 8)

The Crypt
:t025: Sparks Lv. 6 (Met at Viridian Forest, Lv. 4)
Death by the vicious talon of Blue's Pidgey.

Prof. Oak's Lab
:t019: Suarez (Met at Pewter City)
:t041: Dracula (Met at Mt. Moon)

Cort's Journey Episode 3 - Road to Gardenia and Another Tragedy

Spoiler:
+ After defeating Roark, I tutored Scorpio Rock Smash.

+ I ran to Jubilife City and defeated the annoying grunts.

+ I got a fashion case!
Wait, whoops. I don't freaking care.

+ Went through Ravaged Path and emerged on Route 204.

+ Fought trainers on Route 204 and visited Floaroma town. I have high hopes for these three.

+ I was tempted to wait till tomorrow to catch Drifloon, but it's not that good anyways. I caught a Buizel in the grass outside Valley Windworks and named her Aquarius, the Water Bearer.

+ Trained Aquarius back in Oreburgh Mine.

+ With Aquarius' help, I found the Works Key and stormed the valley windworks.

+ I boxed Libra, who is still only Lv. 6

+ We came up route 205 in bad shape, but I was relieved to find a rest house waiting before Eterna Forest.

+ Met Cheryl and agreed to escort her through Eterna Forest.

+ My first battle was with a Buneary and a Budew. Not sure about the policy, here, so I caught the Buneary and left the Budew. I named him Capricorn, the Skybound Ram.

+ Met Cynthia in Eterna City. Huh. She looks powerful. She could probably be Champion or something.

+ Got an EXP share. Helpful? YES.

+ The first pokemon I found on route 211 was Chingling. I caught her and named her Gemini, the Celestial Twin.

+ Then, I ran into Mt. Coronet and caught a Machop. I named him Leo.

+ Boxed Leo, Gemini, and Capricorn.

+ Challenged the Eterna City Gym. Fox blew past the first two trainers easily with HP Flying and Confusion.
Then tragedy struck again. The third Gym trainer's Turtwig smashed Fox with a critical hit Razor-Leaf. Fox's defense is bad, because he's a Kadabra. I am seriously, seriously upset about his loss. I ground him for like two hours.

+ Now with a bone to pick, I unboxed Libra and Gemini. Things are getting serious here. When I come back, there will be no mercy for any of Gardenia's trainers - or gardenia herself. Ice Fang. Wing Attack. Heal Bell. Pain.


[I'll update my team, box, and deaths tomorrow, sorry).

Sign me up for the Sapphire version Nuzlocke, just started it a couple days ago, I'll make an edit with some of my basic progress when I get home from school.

Totally forgot to edit this, but I should before I forget what I did.

Started off with Mudkip
Battled my 'rival' and won
Went to the lab to official receive Mudkip, nicknaming it Reese
Ran around in route 102, 103, and 104 and caught a Poochyena, Zigzagoon, and Wurmple. Nicknamed Tetris, Lexi, and Doxxie.
Did a bunch of grinding before moving into Petalburg Forest.
Caught another Zigazagoon and nicknamed it Zextri.
Lost Poochyena to a critical hit from the first Pokemon, a Zigzagoon, that I ran into right outside the forest once I exit.
Caught a Whismur on the route to the left of the city, also caught another Zigzagoon and named it Tard D:< I kept both Zextri and Tard in the box.
Grinded a whole bunch before challenging Roxanne, Wurmple evolved twice and is now a Dustox.
Probably should have grinded more because I almost lost against Roxanne, but I did win without losing anybody and successfully got my badge.
Went through the whole getting my pokegear process and that's where I'm at right now.
Withdrew Tard and tried to grind a little bit, but forgot that poison actually kills a pokemon outside of battle, so I lost Tard.
Now I'm about to go to that one city that you have to go to by boat, pulling a blank on the name right now.
