Jazzed it up a bit and added more detail so that it's easier and less boring to read. I give credit to Crackin355 for the idea of showing stats, items, abilities, coloring, etc., and hope he/she doesn't mind that I copied it :P

I don't mind, I like it when people add more to their updates. Usually makes them more interesting to read.

Also, we're both bug monotype challengers. How are you liking the challenge?

Considering Bug-type is my favorite, I'm loving it. I wish others could watch the power of the insect at work~

EDIT: Okay, so my save got deleted because the emulator decided to be a buttock. So now I get to restart FireRed. Yaaay. Pisses me off...

If you're using Visual Boy Advanced, just set your Save Type to Automatic Flash 128k. That should allow in-game saving and for you to be able to start back in your room after E4 so you can do the post-E4 content. And it kinda prevents random save losses. And for the "Internal battery has run dry"error, just set your emulator to use real clock so you can still enjoy time-based events such as day/night evolutions.


If you'd like to play with me, you better be sure you know the game.

I had already done all of that, but sadly it still threw out my save file for no reason :/

Edit: I know Kanto isn't needed for Steel run but, I feel like Steelix, Scizor and Magneton can work (even if it takes some hoops to be allowed to have them.)

It seems like whenever I get to Kanto in Gen II I just want to finish it up. I beat all the Gym Leaders a day ago and got their badges so all that's left now is some level grinding then it's off to Mt.Silver to face Red. I'll post a final update when I finish.

Sorry, can't do that. I think I remember you using the phrase, but that has expired now, and only people who had already done their trade in before March 1st are allowed to keep it in their game. No new trade ins can be done outside the rules now. Also, your trade in could not be Legendary, so Palkia is a no-no. Please adhere to the rules.

I just defeated Roxie on my flying mono in Volt White 2. Here is my team:

Butterfree lvl 23( The Powerhouse of my team. Without Sleep Powder, I am afraid I would have defeated either of the leaders)
Staravia lvl 21(Does well, he starred on Cheren when Butterfree used Sleep Powder)
Bagon lvl 20(Have not shown anything good till now possibly due to the lack of STAB moves)

Steel Monotype Ultimate Challenge: Fire Red Update #0 (Not sure if what I did is allowed or not)

- Picked Bulbasaur so that rival had a fire type starter.
- Plowed through Brock and Misty and ignored Lt. Surge to still be technically before 3rd Gym.
- Did the S.S. Anne, got Cut HM, went to the Rock Tunnel.
- Caught an Onyx and named it Jasmine.
- Here is where the iffy business starts. To be allowed to have a Steelix, I gave myself the national pokédex and a metal coat.
- It's the same Onyx, nothing changed besides making it a Steelix.
- If this is against the rules then I'm more than okay with restarting with like a Magnemite egg or something.
- If this is allowed then I'll do it with Scyther too and have a 3 mon team.
