By HM slaves, you mean Pokémon the leader can't/doesn't have, like a water type for Surf?
Just Pokemon that you teach HMs to. So even if your party members can use them, like Steelix is able to learn Strength, you don't have to teach it to Steelix. You could teach it to a random Miltank you caught so you don't have to waste a move slot on your team with crappy HMs. I hope that made sense...I gotta work on my explaining skills, lol.

Making some actual progress :)
  • After massive amounts of training, I got Weird Fish up to a level when he could fight on his own before I reached Virbank City
  • Grinded for levels off of some Audino since they can't touch my Weird Fish
    Took down every trainer in the Virbank Complex
  • Cleaned up Virbank Gym and beat Roxie, only really having a slight problem with her Whirlipede
  • Pokestar Studios. All I can say.
  • Finally, some Team Plasma action
  • Broken Frillish is broken. Turns out, there was rain in Virbank City at the time I fought the Team Plasma guy, so my Bubblebeams are stronger
  • Hunted down and owned the other Team Plasma Grunt
  • Got a boat ride to Castelia City
  • Went to Castelia Sewers and owned Team Plasma there
  • Random encounter on the way out right after my Repel wore off and I didn't want to waste another one. GGs game
  • Gotta get some more training done on Weird Fish before Castelia City's gym

There's nothing in the rules that says you can't catch whatever you want to catch, but telling me you hate rules makes me want to keep my eye on you so...not very wise words on your part there, lol.

Second Update on my FireRed Erika run ^^


Gym Leader Erika
Spoiler:

Took on Erika's Gym and easily won with Clefable's new Flamethrower.
Dealt with the Rockets at the Game Corner.
Dealt with the Rockets at Lavender Tower.

Obtained the Itemfinder. Obtained Leftovers for Clefable.
Battled my way along Routes 12 and 11 and stuff towards Fuchsia.
Backtracked to Celadon a lot to sell the Nuggets Meowth kept picking up and buying coins.
Meowth picked up another Hidden Power TM and I taught it to Vileplume. It turned out to be Psychic.
By the time I reached Fuchsia I could afford Shadow Ball and Thunderbolt as well due to being INCREDIBLY lucky with Meowth's pick up (the little guy is a gold digger @[email protected])
Eventually spent leftover coins on held items.
Reached Fuchsia, took on Koga's Gym and won using Vaporeon's Shadow Ball on all the psychic types around and Vileplume and Clefable against Koga.
Entered the Safari Zone a few times to collect all the items and get Surf.
Obtained Strength as well.
Decided I'll take on the Cycling Road before going to the next Gym.
Saved right outside of Fuchsia after battling the bird keepers.

Update on Jasmine run!

Beat Gardenia. Tetsu the Prinplup is up to level 25. Crystal the Onix is level 20.

There's nothing in the rules that says you can't catch whatever you want to catch, but telling me you hate rules makes me want to keep my eye on you so...not very wise words on your part there, lol.
It was a joke actually, but whatever, go for it lol

EDIT: Evening,so i started!
I chose Oshawott as my starter,of course just for the HMs, he is now called "Shelldon".
I heard Ghetsis talking and fought N. Bianca caught me by surprise on route 2...I still beat her though. I beat Cheren 100% luck,Shelldon tanked a critical hit vine whip! There was a nice lady who gave me a Pansear so i boxed it XD. Because i had nowhere to train, i just defeated Cilan's Lillipup over and over and lost to pansage, until Shelldon evolved (Didn't take a long time, but it was exausting+i'm broke...) OH GOD. But i finally got my 1st badge! I taught HM01 Cut to Shelldon (got from Fennel),defeated the Plasma grunts and retrieved the dream mist. The twins in route 3 wouldn't let me pass unless i have more than 1 pokemon so i brought the Pansear i got,beat them and boxed it again. Beat Cheren on route 3, and caught a Blitzle by the name of "Thunder". I fought the team Plasama guys together with Cheren, and grinded in the grass in order to level Thunder so he can learn Electric moves. Came to Ncarane city, fought N again. I fought the gym trainers and went downstairs to meet Lenora.

update on the run:

Basic badge received!!! Burgh is too fabulous,so i had to take the road in the woods in Pinwheel forest. I fough the Plasma grunts and other trainers until i reached the guy who stole the skull...he handed it to me after i've beat him. Arrived at skyarrow beidge,i love this place...after i got to Castelia city,of course, i went to the gym, BUT! Burgh had other ideas. He said team plasma showed up so we went to see Iris and Bianca, and went ahead to return Bianca's munna to her.

EDIT: Finished the challenge


Team Marlon (Final)


Weird Fish (Jellicent) M Lv. 70 @ Mystic Water
Nature: Quirky
Ability: Cursed Body
Final Stats: 235/111/130/142/163/110
Moves: Scald, Shadow Ball, Ice Beam, Recover

The special wall of the team. He clutched so many battles with his special bulk. How he got so overleveled...Ghetsis battle. To be honest, I thought Carracosta would be the MVP, but his lack of special defense and speed didn't make him as useful against the Elite Four and Iris. Weird Fish here, official MVP.


Carracosta (Carracosta) M Lv. 64 @ Shell Bell
Nature: Impish
Ability: Solid Rock
Final Stats: 178/168/200/113/94/61
Moves: Aqua Jet, Rock Slide, Crunch, Shell Smash

Once the grand savior of the team, and absolute beast in Skyla's gym, Carracosta here...his speed and horrible special defense killed him, especially when it came to dealing with Grass types. He can't take a special Grass move, and Solid Rock never saved him from a special attack that was Electric or Grass. Sadly, because of that, he's the middle man of the Marlon crew.


Bus (Wailord) M Lv. 62 @ Lucky Egg
Nature: Lax
Ability: Oblivious
Final Stats: 285/144/89/124/56/96
Moves: Dive, Surf, Bounce, Bulldoze

Bad defenses ruined all hope I had for using Wailord. Along with Dive being unable to be removed since it's an HM in Gen 5, despite the fact Wailmer learned it by level up, so I was stuck with Dive the whole run. Honestly, I think that Bus came a bit late to be fully useful. He clutched a couple of battles, but overall, he wasn't as useful as Weird Fish and Carracosta. I gotta make him the LVP, sad to say. Hopefully, Wailord can serve me better next time I try to use one.

And yes, I used Marlon's official three party members, but with somewhat better movesets...except maybe on Wailord.

Okay i want to start a new challenge because i dropped out of a few and deleted my save file by accident. I wanted to do this again for a while, so:

Username: KillerCroCohen
Game: Black
Leader: Cilan (Alright, type i don't like!)
Planned team: Simisage, Stoutland,Ferrothorn,Venusaur,Serperior,Crustle. (I hate Hacking in pokemon but gotta have that Venusaur and Serperior, if i can't manage to hack it properly i might use Virizion and maractus).

*Started the game and called myself Cilan
*Picked Tepig so i could get Pansage the legit way.
*Caught Lillipup named "Rush".

And that is my first update.

Planned team: Nosepass, Kabutops, Aerodactyl, Omastar, Golem, Steelix (Her fourth rematch team in Emerald)
If I'm faced with the "three hacked in" limit, then I'll just use the five minus Steelix. If allowed, I'll use all six. (Nosepass and Golem are obtainable in the game. I just don't want to use Swampert because I'll use Omastar.)

I guess I'm going to have to hang out in Victory Road for a while or something and grind because wow I am not going to get anywhere with those levels.
