The Triple Threat Challenge!

Welcome to the Triple Threat Challenge! In this challenge you use not One, not Two but Three Pokemon! Sound simple enough? That's because it is!

Okay here are the rules/conditions:

  • Must use 3 Pokemon, that's the point.
  • These Pokemon cannot be from the same evolutionary line ( Eg. Pichu, Pikachu & Raichu )
  • HM Slaves are allowed ( 3 at max obviously. )
  • Hacking is also in two instances, if you are using an Emulator and can't get your first pokemon till late in the game, and if you want to force evolve a pokemon that CAN'T NORMALLY evolve unless by trade.
  • You can switch to an HM Slave in a battle but ONLY TO HEAL (etc), They cannot attack.
  • If you want to evolve a pokemon for HM slave purposes ( Eg. Catch a Zigzagoon then evolve it to a Linoone ) then that's fine by me, just don't use it in any form of trainer battle, only on wild pokemon.
  • This challenge must be completed in 2 hours, nah just kidding :) Take as long as you want.

Just an update on mine, I've just beaten the twins and I'm moving on to Sootopolis soon, I can't post screenshots as I'm using my GBA for it but I'll try to post a victory snapshot!

One question: can we trade in HM slaves and Pokemon because Deino is not available until Victory Road?

Our first challenger! Welcome! Um, I don't know exactly what you mean by trade in HM Slaves?

If you're asking to trade in a Deino since you don't get it till later. Then yes you can, trade it in in an egg if possible and get it and use it as soon as possible.

Okay that's great because I have a Deino egg in my White Version. What I mean is that I have a Charmander with Cut and Strength, a Squirtle with Surf, Dive, and Waterfall, and a Pidove with Fly. I want to trade them from White as HM slaves. I will not trade them over until I need to.

You're meant to catch your HM slaves not trade over an already used set, an egg for your team is fine though.

Okay thanks, so I know I can trade my Deino egg over in Accumula Town before the fight with N.
I will update with screenies at the beginning of each Gym battle.

OK, Since I'm the leader of this thread.

I'm doing another Triple Threat but it's actually The Mystery Dungeon Challenge, but since I'm only using three pokemon in it I'm pretty sure it would be ok to use in this too so I'll post the updates in here too.

When I post the video, ignore the fact that I'm reading the Mystery Dungeon Challenge rules.

I'll be hacking in the starter evolutions for flygon and walrein via a modifier on the first route. So they'll be Lv 2-5.
I will be posting screens before entering a gym and upon exiting a gym. (May be no changes except for hp loss? :D)

Elemental Dissonance is arriving soon to a fan-fic board near you!

Sorry but that isn't allowed. You will have to wait to catch your trapinch for flygon and your spheal for walrein, you can't hack them in.

Wait, since the earliest Pokemon I can get (Ponyta)is not available until after the second gym, can I bring in an egg of it?

Since you can't get it early enough then you can hack it in or trade an egg in, go ahead.

Ok, so finally an update:
Started with mudkip, searched an caught a Zigzagoon, and named her Covington, a city here in Louisiana. I plan to do this with all my Pokemon. So she and I met Wally, Scott, and of course, Team Aqua. Then I grinded for HOURS getting her to level 20 so that she could evolve into a Linoone, and then semi-swept Roxanne, which is where I saved and turned off.

Proud to say I finally beat this challenge after 28 hours.

I took a picture but it's blurry and I will upload it soon.

My Dustox was the MVP, he really pulled through against the Champion. :)

since u can't get zubat until after the first gym, I'm going to hack it in at lvl 5, and I'll obviously have to trade Kadabra out then back in to get Alakazam
