So the challengers that have already beaten this aren't going to be listed? I've beaten an Ultimate on the last thread.

I do plan to continue that challenge to White, though, since the last ultimate technically ended at gen 4. :D

It tosses its enemies around with agility. It uses all its limbs to fight in its own unique style.

Are we allowed to use different pokemon for different generations? (Like using Charizard in a gen1 game, and being unable to get one in gen 3)
I'm kinda unsure what your saying, do you mean for an ultimate run?

I thought an ultimate was using the same ones for each gen...oh well :P

I'll post an update tomorrow.
I know, that was the case but then I realised that it would mean only being able to use Pokémon from Johto, Kanto & Hoenn regions since Sinnoh & Unova we're after R/B/Y & FR/LG.


Username: Clairissa
Single or Ultimate: Single (For the moment)
Pokémon using: Charizard and Vaporeon
Game: FireRed

Will post an update later, starting with Charmander obviously anyway...
Okay, you're signed up.

and I'm going to start my Duo-Species run after my UMC.
