⇝ Beat sprout tower
⇝ Taught new moves
⇝ Got through the cave
⇝ Beat up a load of guy's in black
⇝ Laughed at an old guy who fell over

So, after beating the gym I decided to go and check out the huge tower that was in the city. Turns out it was a training ground for monks, who would've thought that monks battle? So anyway, every single monk had at least one Belsprout so Stacy did most of the work here, bringer her level up to a whopping 14 with a brand new Bite attack! Oh, and I must say this. What the hell is happening with that gym leader? His highest level'd Pokémon was level 9, this old guy at the top of the tower had a level 10 Hoothoot. Get training blue haired dude. So anyway, I whooped the old monk dude, and on my way down the tower I noticed something rather odd. A woman at the bottom says that the pillar in the middle moves because people are training, but I'd just knocked al there Pokémon out. How was it still moving?
So anyway, forgetting the haunted/unstable pillar in Sprout Tower. I set off on my way down to Union Cave. The first guy I met gave me a seed which I thought was rather nice, but he did seem a bit shocked for some reason when i fed it to Stacy. Pokémon need food to ya' know! So I wiped the floor with a few a few fishermen and their Magikarps and eventually wound up talking to this guy chewing on a pink thing. He asked if I wanted one and before i could say yes Stacy had already bitten it, along with the guys hand! unfortunately to keep him from going to court I had to pay him a large amount of money. Goodbye new bike.
After that whole event I managed to get into the cave. First thing that came into my head? Bubbles, it's your time to shine! I easily took down Geodude and even brought down an Onix, enabling Bubbles to learn Water Gun. However there was this one guy, I was having a nice conversation about how annoying the Zubat in there were when he suddenly set his Koffing at me! Of course Bubbles took him out but who the hell sets their Pokémon on you mid fight! Being in a mood i quickly rushed out of the cave and into the Pokémart so I could buy some clothes that didn't reak of rotting garbage.
After that event I went to check out the gym, only to find some goth all in black standing in the front refusing to let me in. So, after asking around some chick told me about this old dude who is quite popular around here. I obviously went to see him, because otherwise I'd never be able to get on with this game. After a weird rant about Slowpoke he ran off. If it wasn't for his daughter i wouldn't have been able to find him. But I did, and I found him at the bottom of Slowpoke well. He'd hurt his back or something, but I was to busy laughing to notice.
After a good ten minutes laughing at him I dragged him over to a flat surface while I went to beat the crap out of the guy who told the goth not to let me in the gym. This seemed like a job for Stacy! However I had to give most of the battles to Bubbles as Stacy kept on going after the Slowpoke instead. Well anyway, I found the guy who was the boss and slapped him around the face a few times. Needless to say I doubt he'll be keeping me out of the gym anymore.
After my epic beating there was a flash of light and i was back in that guys house. He was standing perfectly well and everything. Then it hit me. The old dude was obviously god in human form. Just one question went through my mind though. How on earth did he manage to fall down the ladder?

5 pokemon on my team, 1 to go... Route 38 is where I am. My team:

Volan the level 22 Numel
Rock Smash
Strength
Ember
Magnitude
Good attack for magnitude, decent special attack for ember... That's it for the attacks I use. A powerful attacker.

Overcoat the level 24 Spheal
Surf
Encore
Ice Ball
Body Slam
Somewhat like volan, I don't use many of the attacks here. Here, it's surf and ice ball. Slow, but awesome.

Flowering the level 23 Ivysaur
Razor Leaf
PoisonPowder
Sleep Powder
Cut
Razor leaf is the most used move. Many attacks on my pokemon are wasted. I do use sleep powder every so often.

Odd Uno the level 26 Porygon-Z
Shadow Ball
Recover
Psybeam
Nasty Plot
If I need a boost, I'll use nasty plot. Of course, I have titanic special attack (88 at level 26!), so it's not used very often.

Absol Zero the level 25 Glaceon
Helping Hand
Sand-Attack
Blizzard
Quick Attack
Just looking at it, it looks awesome. The defense to hold its own, and the special attack isn't too far behind porygon-z.

Or I may just buy it by that time *shrugs*). And then FireRed. Im doing Pearl instead of Platinum, since I know right after this ultimate ill be doing another one, but this time using Yellow and Crystal instead of FireRed and HeartGold, respectively.

Re: NFEs - you know if I assign you a Pokemon you're allowed to evolve it, right? As in, if I gave you Geodude, you could make it a Golem if you wanted. When I say Geodude I mean Geodude's evolutionary line, I don't want to limit anyone to first-stage evolutions, I want them to experience raising the Pokemon to its limits.

Anyway, take... Steelix, Snorlax, Espeon, Milotic (if you can obtain it without tearing your hair out), Gliscor and Honchkrow. I'm interested to see what you make of Espeon and Honchkrow - they're two of my favourite Pokemon that I've raised (although my Espeon was on an emulator long ago and I don't have a hard-saved Espeon on my main HG file, hence Espeon being on my list of Pokemon that got away), so I can vouch for their usefulness!

Hey internet, Tachi here. I saw some trainers blogging their adventures and I figured I'd do the same. Anyway, as I said, the name's Tachi and I started my journey today.

I woke up, bright and early (1:00pm to be exact) and headed out towards Viridian City, mum had told me the gym leader there would give me a pokemon and a steady income. But before I could even step out on to route 1, professor Oak stopped me and insisted I take a pokemon from him. My options were a Charmander, a Bulbasaur and...Woah, a Mr. Mime? That's...pretty lazy of him. Now I know what you're thinking "but Mr. Mime is rare" right? Wrong! The good professor's been breeding them in secret, I just hope he doesn't do something stupid like releasing a bunch of them onto Route 21. Anyway, his grandson, Gav was there too, being an obnoxious twerp as usual. So, I took the Mime and had it beat Gav's Squirtle when the jerk challenged me.

Anyway, some stuff happened that was so boring I don't think I'll mention it and then the professor gave me a pokedex and some pokeballs. I immediately left that boring little 2 house town and started my adventure! Marceau and I were quickly joined by...a grimer? But, according to my pokedex these shouldn't be anywhere near Viridian City, oh well, The Blob joined our team! We trained a while to get The Blob up to speed and then headed out to explore Route 22, huh, that's a bit of a jump...anyway, we encountered Gav and Marceau promptly beat his Pidgey (Oh no, I'm so scared) and Squirtle. He told us we'd need some badges to go any further or something like that...so, off we went. Through Viridian Forest and into Pewter City!

The local gym leader was a nice guy, although it was a little weird that he never opened his eyes, maybe he'd gotten into the slowpoke tails and didn't want me to see how bloodshot they were, it'd explain why he kept laughing at his own terrible puns too...Well, whatever the case, Marceau beat his team easily and I recieved my first badge, the boulder badge!

Marceau/Mr. Mime Lv.11

-Confusion
-Barrier
-Substitute

The Blob/Grimer Lv.10

I think I'm going to kinda use the personalities rule, but I'm not going to set them from the start so much as just play through and see what fits who. I've already got one for one of my team members.

⇝ Beat Azalea Town Gym
⇝ Chased a Farfetch'd Around a Forest
⇝ Got Through Ilex Forest
⇝ Caught a Cubone
⇝ Pwn'd a Lot of Trainers

Ok so after leaving Gods house i went over to the gym so i could see if this guy was any better, as i thought though all of the trainers in there weren't up to the challenge of Stacy's bite attack. Stacy took out each and every one of them, evening the levels out between her and Bubbles. But the gym leader was a different story. He lead me into a false sense of security by having a Metapod and a Kakoona. Seriously, who the hell has a Metapod and Kakoona on their team? But anyway, it was his third Pokémon that was the real problem. Syther. Not only was he amazingly fast but his Fury Cutter attack dominated the battle! He took me out on more than one occasion and even made me end up going to grind up a level or two. But eventually thanks to Bubbles Hypnosis attack and Stacy's high attack we managed to take him down! He was of course devastated.
So after that I though I'd go and checkout this big forest everyone seemed so scared of when guess who shows up? That weird red headed transvestite! He had caught a few more minions since I last fought him. He began with a Gastly, so I countered with Stacy. He must have been medically retarded as he wouldn't stop trying to use ghost attacks on me after he sent Stacy to sleep! But it didn't matter, once I got a hit in there I took him down with a single Bite attack. Then came the Zubat, this thing got lucky as Stacy was distracted by the Trainer's embarrassing hair. It got her down to almost red health before Stacy regained her concentration and took it DOWN! Next however Stacy wasn't so lucky, That crocodile had gotten bigger and was wearing some sort of rag around itself like a caveman. And believe me, it was angry after what that flaming rat did to it. It pulled it's head back and spat out the biggest amount of water you have ever seen come out of something so small! Stacy was taken out. It was all up to Bubbles now. I set her off with a hypnosis and then mad her use Double Slap. That was pretty much it until he finally collapsed. I don't think he likes me any more though, first time I met him I set a rat on him. Now a tadpole was slapping it across the face with its back end. Kinda makes you feel for the guy.
So after the trany went into some sort of delusional state where he believed he won the battle I finally got to go into the forest. First thing I find was a Farfetch'd. Knowing how rare these guys are I chased it all around the forest until I had him cornered next to this kid. Then the kid picks him up! he says thanks and says that the bird belonged to his boss. I'll be honest, i was extreamly ticked off. But at least the guy gave me this CD which let me teach Pokémon how to cut things. maybe I'll give it to that red headed guy, he might get some use out of it. But for now I caught a little mushroom thing and
told it to cut down that bush. It didn't take that much time to get out of the forest, but it was what I found when I got out that surprised me. There was a small Cubone stood cowering near the entrance back into the forest. Needless to say i caught it, if not only for the fact it had a really thick club. But a weird thing was that when I told it to attack this Weedle that had crawled out of the exit it refused to battle again afterwards. I think it doesn't like to attack pokemon which could make it really difficult for me to raise. But the weird thing is when I battled a trainer it was perfectly Ok with it. I guess it's because wild pokemon are more defenceless than trained pokemon. But that's just a guess. So, with that I went on to battle every single trained pokemon I could find. Needless to say this Cubone, when its not refusing to battle, absolutely kicks butt!

Spoiler:
On our way out of town we encountered a man in a lab coat, he said he was one of professor Oak's aides and that he had a gift for me. Running shoes. Awesome! So, off we went at twice our original pace, The Blob cleared out every trainer on the route and we quickly found ourselves outside Mt. Moon.

We entered the mountain and soon found ourselves facing a man in a black uniform, a member of Team Rocket. Ugh, these guys are despicable. Anyway, before I even called him out, Marceau was standing there, glaring at the gangster. Any time the grunt went for his pokeballs, Marceau simply broke the mechanisms required to open them. His team now useless, the grunt threw the balls to the ground and fled. Marceau proceeded to, somehow, release the pokemon. I guess it's a good thing he likes me. Ehehe...The rest of the tunnel was more of the same, there were some normal trainers, but mostly members of Team Rocket, Marceau broke their balls, they dropped the balls and Marceau freed the pokemon. I wonder what happened to make him so aggressive. On the way out we found someone guarding a pair of fossils. He insisted on battling us, but after the battle and a quick explanation, he moved his fossils out of the path and let us go through.
Personality rule: Marceau was conditioned since hatching by professor Oak to attack and disarm members of Team Rocket on sight, he must always be sent out first against Team Rocket and cannot be called back until he faints.

Finally out of that cave, we reached Cerulean City and were immediately attacked by Gav, The Blob and Marceau made quick work of his team and we were on our way. Where, you ask? To see Bill! Who's Bill? That's so obvious that I don't think I need to explain...also I don't actually know. We encountered a gauntlet of trainers on a bridge north of town and easily dispatched them. At the end was a man who gave us a gold nugget as a prize. Unfortunately, he kept talking...he revealed himself as a member of Team Rocket and insisted that I joined them, not noticing that Marceau had disabled his pokeballs the moment he'd finished the word "Rocket". The predictable outcome ensued, but with more "Marceau using a well positioned barrier to knock the grunt into the water" this time.

The following route was another gauntlet, but we made quick work of it. We made our way to Bill's house and inside found...a clefairy! Well, I had no interest in it and was about to leave when it spoke! Apparently this was Bill. He'd screwed up an experiment or something and needed us to undo it, easy enough. So, one teleporter mishap reversal later (Oh Arceus, he stuffed up teleporting a few metres and we're trusting him with the box system?!) we got a ticket for a cruise the SS Anne, now all that was left to was beat the local gym leader.

We entered the gym and, after a couple of easy trainer battles came face to face with the leader. A cute girl in a swimsuit...I think I might need a minute. Anyway, her Staryu was fairly easily dispatched. Her Starmie KOd Marceau, but The Blob took care of it. Although he seemed really angry, especially compared to how he usually is. Anyway, we got the Cascade Badge and left the gym. I think we're going to rest here for the night.

Personality rule: The Blob was created in [ACCESS DENIED] and has seen the deaths of many other pokemon, he seems to snap and go into a rage when one of his teammates is KOd. He must be sent out first if someone is KOd and cannot be returned until the pokemon responsible for the KO has fainted.

Current Team:

Marceau/Mr. Mime Lv.21
Bold/Soundproof
Must be first on the roster against Team Rocket
-Confusion
-Barrier
-Substitute
-Light Screen

So far, an amazing tank and a strong special attacker. I've got the feeling his usefulness will wane later in the game when everyone else's BSTs catch up, but he's still awesome!


The Blob/Grimer Lv.22
Adamant/Sticky Hold
Must be sent out when a team member is KOd. Cannot be returned until the pokemon responsible has been KOd
-Sludge
-Secret Power
-Disable
-Harden

This guy is a monstrous physical attacker. He took 2/3 of Starmie's HP with one Secret Power (Although it may have been a crit, I don't remember), I haven't found much use for the lower half of his moveset though, so it's probably going to get replaced with Dig and Brick Break or something like that.


So, yeah...apparently if I'd gone for one more level (which I couldn't have because I always play with a "no grinding past the next leader's highest level" rule) Marceau would've learned Magical Leaf, but we won anyway!

Have a Ledian, Slowking, Charizard, Glalie, Drapion and Carnivine.

Anyway, I've got an update.

Spoiler:
We headed out way too early this morning (the Nurse Joys told me if I was going to sleep in the pokemon center I had to be up and out of there by 10am, that's still the middle of last night!) and soon found the way out of town, hidden in someone's back yard. Apparently a Team Rocket grunt had been sleeping here...and apparently Marceau had snuck out last night and released his pokemon. When he realised this, he wasted no time in jumping a fence and swimming away, dropping a TM in the process. We tried to return it to its rightful owners, but they didn't want it. So I figured we might as well hold on to it. Anyway, we made our way south to Vermillion City with no further interruptions.

After we arrived, I ran around town talking to people. For my efforts I got an old rod(it's actually just a stick and some twine attached with chewing gum), a VS Seeker(I have no idea how this thing works, but apparently it makes trainers aggressive enough to demand a rematch) and a Bike Voucher(More speed!), yay!

With all that out of the way, we boarded the SS Anne. Onboard were a whole bunch of trainers, we made short work of them before heading off to meet with the captain. Unfortunately Gav was there, he went down easily enough but KOd The Blob. [[UGH! One Sand Attack should not have that much of an effect!]] Anyway, we met the captain, rubbed his back 'cause he was seasick and got HM01 for our trouble, awesome!

After leaving the ship, we headed north to cash in that bike voucher. While we were here, we decided to Route 10, where we found Rick the voltorb.

Deciding we might as well check out the Vermillion Gym, we went back. He had us digging through garbage! WHAT. THE. HELL?! I mean, The Blob didn't mind and happily ate all the trash so he can't pull this on anyone else, but still...I hate this guy already. After we dug through his garbage for a while, we came face to face with him, this was going to be eas- wait, why'd Rick come out?
Personality rule: Rick is extremely cocky, he must always be the first pokemon sent out against a gym leader and can not be withdrawn until an opponent faints.

Rick butchered Surge's Pikachu and voltorb. [[EVASION + PARALYSIS I AM TEH LEET SKILLZORLOLOLOL, have I mentioned I hate Surge?]] Anyway, he sent out his Raichu which unfortunately knocked Rick out. The Blob leapt out onto the battlefield and...dissappeared. It looked kinda like he was shrinking, Surge complimented me on using "real" tactics like him. Of course he quickly shut up when the ground below his Raichu was eaten away by The Blob, dropping the rat into the toxic waste pokemon's body...unlike the last time The Blob got like this, I didn't particularly feel like interfering...we got the badge and...after looking through the garbage cans again to find those darn switches, I returned The Blob to his ball and left.

I accidentally ended up overleveled here...

So, after dealing with that we headed north and onto route 10 again, this time, we were going through Rock Tunnel.

After wandering around in the dark for a while, we finally escaped into Lavender Town...this place creeps me out, I think I'm just gonna leave. On the way to our destination, Celadon City, we encountered our newest team member, Yoko the Vulpix.

The moment we entered Celadon City Marceau broke out of his pokeball and ran for the Game Corner. After fighting our way through hordes of grunts (read: Marceau disabled their pokeballs and they ran away crying), we found ourselves on the lowest floor, face to face with Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket. For some reason Marceau couldn't disable his balls, so we had to fight him normally...and Marceau stomped him into the ground anyway. He fled after his defeat, leaving a Silph Scope behind.

With Team Rocket out of the way Marceau had no problem with me gambling. :D So, after a little bit of time with the slots, Rick and Yoko learned Thunderbolt and Flamethrower. Yoko apparently stole my Attract TM at some point too. After this, we took a quick trip to the department store to grab a fire stone. Yeah, Yoko evolved, what of it?

Anyway, with that done we headed into Saffron City on a whim. We found a dojo full of fighting type users, jackpot! Marceau wiped the floor with the trainers and we were rewarded with Jackie, the Hitmonchan. Well, that was just about it for this place for now, so we headed to...-shudder- Lavender Town.

Inside Pokemon tower was the jerk, Gav. He challenged us and *SPOILER ALERT* Rick rolled through his team like they weren't there, and then he evolved. We went up the tower, exorcising some Gastlys that had possessed their trainers. (I never knew they could do that...) Near the top we encountered a ghost...Marowak? "But Marowak's not a ghost type", no, but this one had been killed by Team Rocket. Marceau (Arceus, he's the star of this update, isn't he?) defeated it and allowed its spirit to pass on to the afterlife...or something like that.

On the top floor, Rockets...Marceau quickly showed them what the ground looks like from the 7th story...then the 6th, the 5th, etc. I can't be held responsible for that, can I? >.> Anyway, the only witness, a man called Mr. Fuji actually thanked us for that and gave us something called the pokeflute.

Now then, I decided at this point that I'd put visiting the Celadon gym off for long enough. Yoko and The Blob swept through the trainers in the gym and we soon found ourselves face to face with Erika. She sent out a Victreebel and...Rick jumped out of his pokeball again, unfortunately, he refused to come back and soon his lack of anything effective against grass types led to him being KOd. Now then, on to the way I'd planned for this to go. The Blob destroyed Victreebel, then Yoko cleared up the rest of her team. We got the rainbow badge, thanked Erika and left.

Current Team:

Marceau/Mr. Mime Lv.39
Bold/Soundproof
Must be first on the roster against Team Rocket, can't be withdrawn
-Psybeam
-Magical Leaf
-Substitute
-Light Screen

Due to that rule of his, Marceau hogged a lot of the update, as shown by the 9 level gap between him and most of the other team members. Fortunately he still seems to be going strong. >.>


The Blob/Grimer Lv.30
Adamant/Sticky Hold
Must be sent out when a team member is KOd. Cannot be returned until the pokemon responsible has been KOd
-Sludge
-Secret Power
-Dig
-Screech

Well, he didn't get much screentime in this update because I didn't want him going over Erika's 29 before we got there, sure enough Victreebel pushed him over. Still awesome and due to evolve in 8 levels.

Rick/Electrode Lv.30
Mild/Soundproof
Must be first on the roster against gym leaders and can't be withdrawn until something faints
-Sonicboom
-Shock Wave
-Thunderbolt
-Charge

He swept my rival in Pokemon Tower, maybe that's because Thunderbolt's a bit OP at this point, but I've gotta give some credit to his amazing speed, it even surpasses Marceau's despite the level gap.

Yoko/Ninetales Lv.30
Serious/Flash Fire
???
-Flamethrower
-Will-O-Wisp
-Attract
-Quick Attack

She's a fire-type, her screentime in this update was in a grass gym. Of course she did well. I'm kinda disappointed that Ninetales apparently isn't allowed to use the Solarbeam TM until Gen VI, but oh well.

Jackie/Hitmonchan Lv.25
Rash/Keen Eye
???
-Comet Punch
-Mach Punch
-Agility
-Pursuit

Well, he didn't get any action this update, but I'm really looking forward to using him against...um...Lorelei? I don't think there's much in this game that a fighting type is useful against.


Yeah, this was going to be 2 updates, but no one posted for a while... >.>

EDIT: I assume I don't have to do the games in order, seeing as I've already got Sinnoh out of the way. And I'm probably going to take a break from Fire Red between beating the league (I'm actually pretty close to challenging them at this point) and catching 60 mons to unlock the national dex and league rematches, if that's okay. So...here's my list for Hoenn:

Spoiler:
Bellossom
Lanturn
Kingdra
Magcargo
Weezing
Sandslash
Golduck
Starmie
Seaking
Gyarados
Gorebyss
Milotic
Wailord
Whiscash
Armaldo
Crawdaunt
Medicham
Camerupt
Beautifly
Seviper
Torkoal
Grumpig
Lunatone
Relicanth

She led off with a Geodude, which fell to a crit absorb. Nosepass was next and through super potions, poison and absorb spam, we won! Stone Badge get!

-Got the pokenav and 2 delivery quests
-Headed to Dewford Town
-Suddenly, gym time!

Vs. Brawly.
He started with Machop, which easily fell to a couple of gusts. Next up was Makuhita, who would've gone down in 3 turns if Brawly didn't have super potions. He only managed to inflict 4 damage though. Knuckle Badge get!

-Got Flash, completed my first delivery quest
-Completed the second delivery quest, met Archie
-Easily beat May
-Caught Ohana the Oddish
-Trained her into a Gloom
-Beat the Winstrates
-Traded in the mother for another team member, because there's no way I'm beating Wattson with these two. Introducing Mack the Slugma

Vs. Wattson.
He began with Magnemite, which fell to Mack's ember before sending out Voltorb, I withdrew Mack and sent out Ohana to stall while I healed, it hit Ohana with a sonicboom and selfdestruct, but she survived with 16HP. Finally, Magneton. It KOd Ohana with Sonicboom, got paralyzed by Papillon and fell to repeated embers from Mack. Dynamo Badge get!

Added all 3 of you to the Challengers list. Enjoy!
