James, take Petilil, Slowking, Vanilluxe, Durant, Heatmor, and Drifblim. Give Petilil an Eviolite btw. ;)
Damn did I really type Petilil?! Sorry I meant to put Lilligant, do you mind if I take Lilligant instead? I alway mix up their names for some reason. :/ The rest is fine though and I can't wait to get started. :D

Update #3 on Sacred Gold.
  • Kanto took a little while to beat because of the route changes the hack has (basically makes you battle the leaders in order).
  • Eventually was able to defeat all the gym leaders. Didn't have much trouble with most of them.
  • Caught a bunch of legendaries now that I had 16 badges, and defeated the Elite Four upgraded teams.
  • Since no one on my team can learn Rock Climb, I boxed Dustox for Snorlax.
  • Finalized EVs and movesets, then grinded and Rare Candied the rest of my team to L87.
  • Climbed Mt. Silver on Snorlax and faced off against Red. Here's a video and play-by-play of the battle:

    I'm almost done with the Pokedex! I have to get some evolutions, breed a Happiny, and then catch the rest of the legendaries, including Arceus. I will make a final update with a video of capturing Arceus, as well as a team evaluation.

I also forgot to screencap Palkia and Dialga (captured at the same time as Giratina) and Lugia (captured in between Celebi and Jirachi).


Notes on game changes:
  • Farfetch'd is now Fighting/Flying, with a revamped BST, ability, and moveset.
  • Seaking, Mawile, and Dustox also have some BST changes, although not to the extent of Farfetch'd.
  • Giga Drain is now 75 power.
  • Also, most Pokémon have access to Hidden Abilities whenever possible and/or appropriate (i.e. Dustox, but not Salamence).

Thanks for the type variation, I didn't expect it to be so well rounded. I am enjoying it very much.
So I used Universal Pokemon Randomiser to make my starter a Victini, and then I randomised the wild pokemon with catch them all mode. I thought it'd be more fun and challenging than just giving myself the ones I couldn't catch in White 2.
I was right about the more challenging part.

The Adventure:
-Had to pick between snivy, tepig, and victini. I choose Victini.
-Nicknamed Victini Roxas, because I don't know much about Victini (I just started watching the anime again for the first time in a few years and I'm starting from the very beginning for fun and nostalgia, I bring this up because most of my nicknames are references to the anime, see if you can understand them.)
-Roxas had a starting moveset of incinerate, confusion, quick attack, and focus energy, and learned heatbutt to replace focus energy pretty early on.
-Searched all the grass for one of my pokemon that got away, no luck so it was basically just grinding.
-Beat Cheren, very easy except some of the patrat in his gym knew bite.
-Went onto beat Roxie, very easy with confusion. Now Roxas is very over leveled due to being my only pokemon.
-Dealt with team plasma.
-Got the insect badge, then Roxas got flame charge and I gave him a twisted spoon that I didn't know I had.
-Headed towards Nimbasa City and searched Dessert resort for a new pokemon.
-Found a Venemoth :D, I nicknamed him Raymond, can anyone tell me what that's from? It was between Raymond and Koga but Koga was too obvious.

I'll go into better details later, I should have updated sooner after playing, it's all kind of a blur now. If anyone has some constructive critisism on how to do my update I'll gladly take it.

The Team

Roxas (Victini) Lv28
Hardy Nature @Twisted Spoon
Ability: Victory Star
Confusion, Flame Charge, Quick Attack, Headbutt



Raymond (Venamoth) Lv20
Timid Nature @None
Ability: Tinted Lens
Confusion, Leech Life, PoisonPowder, Supersonic

Sorry for no pictures, they won't let me add any without 15 posts, I had them and they looked amazing.

Forgot to update after I beat Chuck, whoops. Anyway, it was pretty easy. Can't go wrong with a Slowking. After that, I got everyone up to level 33 to fight Jasmine, which again, was relatively easy. I just traded in my final party member Gavin the Surskit. I'll train him up next time I play. I also evolved Fuzzy and got some cool new toys for Death to play with (that sounds morbid, doesn't it?). I can feel the fun part of this challenge coming in soon. My body is ready.

It's been an interesting journey so far. Duskull is a pain to use but I know Dusknoir will be worth it in the end. Wormadam is a tank and Murkrow is still the same monster I remember from Gen II. And Glameow is a princess through and through. Loving this playthrough so far. :]

Been 2 months since my last update, lol. I made it up to Ecruteak without much resistance. Morty was pretty hard though. I had to try a couple times. His team is just so trolly it's stupid. I also evolved my Slopoke, Raichu, and Gloom, so now I really only have Swinub to worry about, since he won't be evolving any time soon...

Trucking right along in the challenge. Maylene was a pain when they stopped listening to me again but I got lucky the second try and beat her with Charon! Right now I'm getting ready for Crasher Wake who is gonna be a pain with no Electric- or Grass-type moves at my disposal. But this team is definitely exceeding expectations and I couldn't be happier. <3

There is no rule against this. But I would still rethink your list if I were you. Playing with a full team of legendary Pokemon would be extremely boring as there would be virtually no challenge. If you really want to do this, your team will be:

I made it past Route 216 where I usually get stuck at (bored on) every time I try to play. I hate snowy routes so much. My team is finally evolved though! Just need to get a fourth move for Honchkrow and find Sludge Bomb in this Galactic HQ. Just don't feel like doing the warp pad puzzle right now. Soon I'll have to go through the other part I get bored at: Mt. Coronet. After that it should be smooth sailing on this playthrough!

time for an update on my White run ^^
Spoiler:

Picked Oshawott as my starter and did the beginnign stuff.
Obtained PokéBalls and then used a wild pokemon modifier in order to catch my team members.
Reached Accumula, listened to the nasty dude in team Plasma talk about stuff.
Battled N.
Made my way to Striaton City, not bothering much to grind my team.
Got stopped by Bianca and asked to battle so I kicked her butt.
Entered Striaton, went to the Dream yard and obtained Pansear.
Battled Cheren at the trainer school.
Took on the Gym and won handily with Tropius.
Was kidnapped by Fennel as soon as I left the Gym and she asked me to get her some dream mist.
Went to the PokéCenter, got congratulated once again for my birthday, healed up and saved.
