That's fine. Do you know where the Water Stone is? All the FAQs I found said it's only available after the elite 4, whereas one said there was one before Victory Road. The only reason I asked. :P After the 7th badge is perfectly reasonable.

On a side note: On my way to Rustboro, have Treecko and Lotad Level 10, Shroomish level 8.
There's an actual Water Stone in the Abandoned Ship where you Dive, and there are various colored shards along the route to Mossdeep where you can dive. Blue shard = Water Stone from the Shard Hunter.

Pokémon White
St. Patrick's Ultimate Challenge





Ultimate Challenge Complete!

I want to start off by saying that if you haven't played White yet, and don't want it to be spoiled, then don't scroll down. Anyway, I'll be playing White now with Serperior, Simisage, Lilligant, and Reuniclus. So yeah...here we go! :D



I start off by naming myself Inferno, like I normally do. Of course, I choose the female character. The game begins, and out of the nicely wrapped box, I choose Snivy. I defeat both Bianca and Cheren with ease. Snivy gets a critical hit on Cheren's Tepig, which sealed the deal. My room is a mess, and the other two go downstairs to apologize to my in-game mother. They both exit, and I follow after receiving the Xtransceiver.
I see Bianca going towards her home, so I follow. She gets yelled at by her father. It doesn't affect her that much, and she leaves. We head into Professor Juniper's lab. We all get a Pokédex. As soon as we exit, we also get Town Maps.
Those two race off to Route 1, and I follow. Juniper demonstrates how to capture a Pokémon. Once I'm free to do what I want, I capture a Pansage. Once I catch up with everyone, the Xtransceiver rings. Finally, I head to Accumula Town. I get introduced to the Pokémon Center. Then, I head outside. There is something going on, apparently, but for now, I ignore it and decide to train a little.
After this, I hear Team Plasma's speech, and defeat N. After this battle, I heal, and head to Route 2. I battle Bianca, and she is defeated very easily. I then arrive in Striaton City. I go into the Dreamyard, and battle the trainers. While doing this, my Snivy evolves into Servine. I also obtain a Panpour, but I plan to use it for Surfing purposes.
I head back to the city, where I prepare to face the gym leaders. I get through the trainers and the puzzle easily, then battle Chili.



After this, Fennel gives me Cut. I use this to go cut down the tree in the Dreamyard. I defeat the Plasma members and save Munna. Also, I go back to Fennel's house and get the Pal Pad and C-Gear (both of which I'm not going to need at all)
Next, I go to Route 3, and defeat several trainers, as well as Cheren. Also, the Team Plasma members are all defeated. Now, I can head south. I defeat some trainers, and end up in Nacrene City. At the Pinwheel Forest, I take out a bunch of trainers, and rack up the Experience Points. Finally, I'm ready to take on Lenora.



She's defeated quite easily, actually. Leech Seed was pretty helpful too. Anyway, Lenora's husband comes running to us. Team Plasma has shown up. They steal the skeleton's head, and run off somewhere. It's up to us to find them. I'm instructed to head off to the Pinwheel Forest. In there, I catch a Petilil. I begin to train it up as I defeat Team Plasma and get the skull back. I return it to Lenora. I cross the Skyarrow Bridge at this point.
As soon as I arrive in Castelia City, I evolve Pansage into Simisage with the Leaf Stone I obtain. I also help out Bianca, and challenge the gym.



Burgh isn't too tough. Anyway, I continue on. Bianca and Cheren are defeated once again, along with other trainers on Route 4. I make it to Nimbasa City, win against N and battle the Gym Leader. However, before that, I caught a Solosis at Route 5 and trained it up some. Also, I use the Sun Stone that is obtained in the town to evolve my Petilil into Lilligant.


(Solosis's Hidden Power was Ground. That = Instant Win)

I exit to Route 5, Cheren loses again, and I cross the bridge. Once there, I heal and find the Plasma members in the Cold Storage. I then head to the gym, and prepare for the incoming battle.


(Grass > Ground.)

I heal up my team, then head to Route 6 and battle Bianca. I obtain Fly. Clay helps me get into Chargestone Cave, so I enter and do some exploring. I see Juniper and Bianca, and get the Lucky Egg, which I use for training. Also, I clear out the cave of Team Plasma, and exit. Seeing that the Gym Leader isn't here, I head to the Celestial Tower, and climb it, while battling many trainers. In one of these battles, Servine evolves into Serperior. I head back to the city, and defeat Skyla.

(I forgot completely this time about a screenshot.)

Anyway, I defeat Cheren near Twist Mountain, then I begin to scale it. It takes some time, but I finally reach the other side. I enter the gym, and solve the lengthy puzzle in order to fight the leader, Brycen.



At that point, my team is very high in level. (Lucky Egg ftw) Also, my Duosion has evolved. This battle is pretty straightforward, Psychic owns. I go out, heal, and head to Dragonspiral Tower. I scale it, defeating Team Plasma members. I see N, and now I must head to Relic Castle. There, I do the same thing, defeating Plasma members. After everything is said and done, I have to head to Nacrene City. I receive the Dark Stone, and head to Opelucid City.
I eventually get there after defeating several trainers, including Bianca. I solve the long puzzle in the gym, and prepare to fight Iris.



This battle took some time, but ultimately, with some Revives and Potions, I win. (I have little to no diversity in my team...xD) After this, I head to Route 10 and Victory Road, defeating Cheren once again on the way there. I finally reach Victory Road. (Which is awesome in this game) After a few battles, I also reach the E4, where I prepare to battle. I save, and take it on.



(Timing was off, lol.)



Finally, all the battles are done. However, I soon have to face N! After watching the castle rise from the ground, I enter it, ready to win. I do capture Zekrom, but I made sure that my party was full so it wouldn't automatically enter my party. (Otherwise, it goes to the first slot position automatically)

(I was so focused on this that I apparently forgot another screen, my bad.)

After all is said and done, I defeat a very confused N, then a very evil Ghetsis.



This means the challenge has reached it's end, and my Ultimate St. Patrick's Day Challenge is completed...all before the actual day! :D

Serperior Lv. 52
Leaf Blade, Coil, Slam, Leech Seed


Simisage Lv. 57

Almost done with my Emerald run! Winona was a pain in the rear since most of my team was weak to flying. :< Tate & Liza were unbelievably easy with Flygon & Xatu (Shadow Ball FTW!) and Then there was Juan. O.O At this point I realize that my entire team is weak to Ice Beam, which his Kingdra has. Nooooooooooooooo! >.< Took me leveling up many more levels and getting a lucky crit in order to beat that bloody Kingdra. Sidetracked to pick up my Water Stone and evolve Lombre, and made my way through Victory Road. :) Now at the league gate. I am going to go back, though, because I forgot to pick up Giga Drain. (Lo still knows Absorb, WTH? XD )

Team:
Lo the Lv. 47 Ludicolo (Fake out, Absorb, Surf, Ice Beam)
Ro the Lv. 47 Breloom (Sky Uppercut, Mach Punch, Leech Seed, Mega Drain)

Xo the Lv. 47 Xatu (Psychic, Wish, Shadow Ball, Peck)
Ko the Lv. 31 Grovyle (Flash, Strength, Leaf Blade, Quick Attack)
Do the Lv. 32 Sharpedo (Dive, Waterfall, other stuff.)

Yay for being slightly underlevelled. After getting Giga Drain, I'm just going to bash myself against the E4 until they fall. ^^;

EDIT: CHALLENGE COMPLETE

That was far easier than expected... I forgot that the Champion was Wallace and not Steven... XD I kinda squished him. Milotic was the only pain in the rear, and Ro's Leech Seed won out in the end. :) Final team!

Sydian just one question, what is the maximum level diffrene between team members? WonderWorm won't be able to trudge through the game being the same level as Indigo anymore, since there will be harder Pokemon, and that means less chance to level up WonderWorm. So is the max difference of Levels 5, 10, or 15?

Final Comments

Don't kill me Syd if my third Pokemon wasn't at like the level of the others, but I honestly find it difficult to train two Pokemon at once, I normally dominate with one, and especially since they're grass... yeah ;__; Whatevs, it's been in my party for ages anyway! XD Elite Four was hard to beat, but thanks to Toxic / Leech Seed I made it <3 Also if you want photos, I guess I could take it off my DS from my camera if you want proof? But yeah, playing grass types with LeafGreen limited me to only like literally three different types of Pokemon, with majorly weak moves, buuut, for once I actually liked a non offensive move (being Toxic) so yeah. XD;

BUT YEAH. NEVER PLAYING THROUGH A WHOLE GAME EVER AGAIN WITH ONLY GRASS TYPES. It's so freaking hard :( Oh well I survived. :D Oh and with the first post, iirc, LeafGreen defs is the hardest to pick. XD;;

I guess the level difference doesn't matter too much, since Nica went ahead and finished with a level 17 Bellsprout. XD I guess as long as you've trained them up as much as you can, then it's fine. I mean, I didn't even train Celeb all the way, and then Tyranitar was WAY ahead of the rest of my team.

I had the same thing happen to me multiple times :/ Was it the second lass in that vertical row of trainers? There's also a few more trainers that do that, one of them being the last trainer in Blaine's gym. Just answer the question, or else as soon as you talk to him, the game crashes.

Actually, I think I will post updates. Derp.
  1. Started the game with Patrick the Treecko.
  2. Did mandatory opening stuff and went onto the Route near Oldale, where I caught a Lotad. ...After killing another one. >> Named her Groeni, but will probably be renamed to something cooler.
  3. Shook fist at Pokédex for not allowing Gardevoir to be a Green Pokémon.
  4. Did Wally's little subquest, met Scott, etc.
  5. Entered Petalburg Forest after grinding my 'mons against some Wingulls and Poochyenas and the like.
  6. Caught Roasty the Shroomish -- shaddup, it's an in-joke. This is half of my team, caught in the first few hours of the game. Pretty pro if you ask me. (The real problem is going to be Cradily... I hate those rock things, but not all my 'mons can be Grass-types...)

Very delayed update on account of being out of town for the past week, but finally getting my update up. ~

Also, I decided to not add Xatu and Tropius to my team. (The latter because it would be another grass type... the former because by the time I caught one, my team was about 13 levels ahead and I didn't feel like grinding) Instead, I trained Kecleon.

Spoiler:
-Started my journey back to Rustboro, training Trapinch along the way.
-Continued on back toward Petalburg.
-Prepared my team for what I assumed would be a tough battle against "my dad".
-Took on Petalburg gym and after about four tries, finally collected my badge.
-Trapinch evolved into Vibrava.
-Collected HM03 and prepared for yet another journey, this time across the water.
-Surfed out toward the abandoned ship, training my Pokemon on the way.
-Explored the ship a bit and then continued across the water, once again training my team.
-Surfed around for a bit, exploring as many surfing areas as possible before finally heading toward the next town.
-Arrived at the weather institute and did that little side plot.
-Battled my rival, and found him embarrassingly easy this time.
-Arrived in Fortree.
-Collected my Pokemon... scope... thing... to find Kecleons and caught Kecleon.
-Challenged Winona, beating her on my first try using Lombre, Dustox, Kecleon, and Vibrava. Only one that gave me trouble was her Skarmory.
-Team was about Lvl 38 by that time. (lowest level being Kecleon at Lvl 32 or 33)
-Continued my journey once again.
-Headed toward the next town, battling the trainers along the way and trained Kecleon to lvl 37 so that he'd be up to speed.
-Arrived in Lilycove, did some shopping after defeating my rival once more, and headed to Mt. Pyre.
-Defeated the grunts, explored Mt. Pyre, continued along the route.
-Headed back to Jagged pass, defeated Team Magma.
-Returned to Lilycove, talked to the grunts.
-Returned to Slateport, watched Team Aqua take the submarine.
-Returned to Lilycove, defeated Team Aqua.
-Surfed to Mossdeep, defeating the trainers along the way.
-Took on Tate and Liza, defeating them using Dustox, Lombre, and Sceptile.
-Went to the space center, defeated Team Magma.
-Explored the ocean; dive and all. (used a Tentacool for Dive)
-Traded blue shard for water stone, evolved Lombre into Ludicolo.
-Vibrava evolved into Flygon.
-Found the submarine, did the Team Aqua thing.
-Went to Sootopolis.
-Did the cave of origin thing.
-Went to Pacifidlog.
-Explored the water a bit more.
-Went to the Sky Pillar.
-Returned to Sootopolis.
-Finished the legendary thing and took on Juan, beating him quite easily using Kecleon, Sceptile, Ludicolo, and Flygon.
-Headed toward Evergrande. (using Tentacool for Waterfall)

Current team:
Dustox - Lvl 47

Ludicolo - Lvl 48

Update again!

Spoiler:
-Made my way through Victory Road.
-Arrived at the Pokemon League.
-Stocked up on Potions, Full Restores, and Revives.
-Prepared my team for battle.
-Entered the league!
-Challenged Sidney, who was rather easy to beat using Dustox and Kecleon. (and a few Revives and Potions)
-Challenged Phoebe, who proved a challenge. But I eventually beat her using Kecleon, Sceptile, and Ludicolo. Had two fainted Pokes afterward. Healed up and continued.
-Challenged Glacia, who was a challenge. Had to soft reset once, but eventually took the win using Kecleon and Sceptile.
-Got anxious on my way to Drake, since he's usually my downfall.
-Challenged Drake. He proved a challenge, as per usual for me. But with a lot of luck, Flygon, Kecleon, and Ludicolo... I took the win after only one soft reset.
-Got even more anxious as I headed toward the champion.
-Challenged Wallace. This time, I had to soft reset several times. Since my team was around 50-52 and his was in the late 50's, I had a bit of a struggle. But I finally got down to his last few Pokemon... struggled with his Ludicolo, though... who insisted on Double Teaming and Leech Seeding me to death. Finally defeated him using my entire team (minus Dustox). Three of my Pokemon were fainted at the end, and one was down to red health... but it was a win!!!
-I am now the champion and I have a team of nothing but green Pokes to thank for it.

Final Team:
Kecleon - Lvl 52
Shadow Ball|Fire Blast|Thunder|Slash

Ludicolo - Lvl 50
Surf|Rock Smash|Blizzard|Ice Beam

Dustox - Lvl 50
Flash|Psychic|Hyper Beam|Silver Wind

Sceptile - Lvl 51
Bullet Seed|Cut|Leaf Blade|Slam

Flygon - Lvl 51
Crunch|Strength|Dragonbreath|Earthquake

Total Play Time: 25:47


I have a new found respect for Kecleon. And now that I'm done with the challenge, I don't know what to do with my copy of Emerald.

Beat my rival because of epic overleveling. xD

The way trough the victory road was easy with such high levels.

Lorelei got pwnt by some Razor leaves.
Bruno as well.
Agatha was really difficult.the rest pwnt with
Gengar, haunter were Leech seed stalled, the rest was pwnt with neutral normal attacks.
Lance was pretty difficult, but normal type moves + Sleep powder (and giga drain for Aerodactyl) ftw.
Then my rival battle was pretty hard, but level 80s live super effective attacks and kill with neutrals :)

Giga drain
Secret power
Sleep powder
Acid

Venusaur

I should start this, shouldn't I?

Named myself Emerald, because this will also be part of my Grass UMC, and my theme has been on RSE games, I name my character a gem that is the same color as my type.
Saved Birch w/ Treeko (Clover)
Defeated May
Caught Lotad (Shamrock)
Witnessed the catchation of a Ralts by Wally
Saved dude in Petalburg Woods.
Both Clover and Shamrock evolved right before I fought Roxanne.
Fought Roxanne and won!

Coming up next: probs battle in Rusturf cave to about Wattson.

Screenies (accidentally missed the one naming Treeko):
Spoiler:

Gotta put my update 2 here since nobody's updated yet...
Did Rusturf Tunnel stuff
Missed a May screenie.
Went to Dewford
Delivered Letter
Went to Slateport Bay
Went in Seashore house, won all three battles, and then spent ALL my money on Soda Pops. I know I'll need them for Wattson. I'm not going to have an attack that isn't NVE...
Backtracked for Brawly. Beat him
Delivered Goods, defeated whichever team I fought.
Fought May on the way to Mauville
Beat Wally
Beat Wattson. It was a lot easier than I thought; I only needed like 16 of my Soda Pops. I thought Shock Wave would do more to Clover...
Train train train. Overlevelling Clover for Flannery.
Hey, don't take that Meteorite! (Missed the screenie again...)
Screenies round 2

If your final update is not posted by April 1 12 AM Central (-6 GMT), then you will not get your emblem. (Sorry if this confused anyone)

If you did an ultimate and completed at least one game, you will still get the emblem, since you actually did something.

This stomach virus will not keep me from getting this emblem!

Beat Flannery with my new Sceptile.
Caught Cacnea (Ran out of actual St. Patty's names that I could think of at the moment, so had to improvise)
Beat Dad with Sceptile.
Got Surf, which I taught to Lombre.
Got Ice Beam, also to Lombre. He is now ready to do stuff before I fight Winona.
Paused for a sec to consider final Movesets.
Taught Rock Tomb to Sceptile.
Taught Strength to Lombre temporarily.
Taught Toxic to Cacnea.
Cacnea Evolved!
Got Devon Scope.
Defeated Winona, taught Sceptile Aerial Ace.
After being given an Orb, I took a quick trip to route 123 to get Giga Drain for Lombre.
Went to a class and came back. Went to Slateport to see the sub get jacked.

Screenies:
Spoiler:


Edit for more progress:
F'hargon learned Needle arm finally.
Did other stuff
Final two gym leaders? Puh leez.
Got to Elite Four.
Saved and quit.

No screenies because of my rush to get to E4.
Edit round 3: Done!
Sydney: Easy work for Shamrock and some help from Clover
Phoebe: Sweep w/ F'hargon
Glacia: Almost w/ Shamrock, gotta love that Miracle Seed boosted Giga Drain! Walrein got lucky w/ Blizzard, so F'hargon had to finish the battle
Drake: Almost sweep w/ Clover after 6 Rare Candies were administered. Gotta love Dragon Claw! (Shamrock had to finish off Altaria though, as Salamence almost OHKO'd Clover w/ Flamethrower and Altaria fainted her w/ something.
Champ: Don't make me laugh.

Had some fun with the final screenshot.

Final Team:
Spoiler:

Shamrock, the Lv. 50 Ludicolo @Mystic Water
154/87/89/102/121/87
Surf, Ice Beam, Brick Break (Dive or Waterfall until after I didn't need them anymore), Giga Drain (Bullet Seed or Strength when I could learn it, until I didn't need it anymore)


Clover, the Lv. 51 Sceptile @Soft Sand
148/109/81/132/101/144
Earthquake (Dig until I got EQ), Dragon Claw (Aerial Ace until Drake), Leaf Blade, Rock Tomb)

Needle Arm, Toxic, Double Team, Faint Attack


Dargon, the Lv. 26 Tropius
Fly Slave

Not really sure on who the MVP of my team was... It was definitely Clover at the beginning, but she lost usefulness as the other two got better. Would have been fine with any of them as starters. Shamrock was really useful with HM Juggling. At one point (Seafloor Cavern), she knew 3 (Dive, Surf, Strength)
