I started Y for my Normal challenge and I have 1 badge so far, I haven't done anything really for my Bug or Rock runs,, I will give a better update for all of them when I beat them or make significant progress. Also I started Emerald for my Ghost challenge on my phone but of course my phone broke so I lost all my progress, I was 7 badges in too! :'( I don't want to play through it again right now so I'm going to take a little break from my little ghosties. So until I feel like continuing my Ghost run, and to take a little break from my other types I'm going to sign up for another one. This time with the Water type! I started yesterday and I'm 3 badges in, so far it's been okay. Would have been really good if not for leveling up that damn Magikarp to evolve it.

Would have gone all fancy with sprites and stuff, but I haven't posted enough to... couldn't find any Polar Vivillon sprites anyway.
I am a Bug type trainer. I despise people who call the Bug type weak. They can be powerful Pokemon, like Dragonite and other pseudo legendaries. All you have to do is train them correctly...

So you want to know why I'm a fish? Well, I'm not going to tell that to everyone... the common knowledge might destroy society...

2nd Update, Fire Challenge, Black 2
-did everything I needed to do in Virbank Complex

-Roxie's father finally decided to go back to driving boats, so I headed to the Virbank dock

-sailed to Castelia City
-explored the city a bit, battled a few people, including the Game Freak staff
-headed to the gym to bump into Iris, then went to the Castelia Sewers
-ignored the obviously placed grunts and explored what part of the sewers is currently accessible (with Hugh in tow)

3rd Update, Fire Challenge, Black 2:
-defeated the Neo Plasma Grunts hiding in the sewers
-took a peek inside Relic Passage
-took on the Castelia City Gym. It was easy, as expected. Not even Dwebble being part Rock could save Burgh from me torching his team.
-bumped into Colress, followed him out to Route 4, and did battle
-that wall of Crustle got out of the way (thank you Colress!), so I began to explore Route 4
-caught a Darumaka (which has Hustle, but then there's a Wide Lens sitting in one of the houses along Route 4. That was really convienient)
-after checking out Route 4, I entered Join Avenue and got hired as the manager (who the hell just makes some random stranger the manager of part of their new business idea?)
-then explored Desert Resort and part of Relic Castle
-arrived in Nimbasa City
-paired up with Nate and beat the Subway Bosses
-deposited Magby (waiting till level 30 for a baby poke to evolve is not helpful)

Update #1:
->Started my adventure and chose Totodile (for now, when i get pokeballs I'll catch a poison type).
->Found this rival named Zane, he challenged me with his Porygon. I defeated him with ease, and now I'm on to Mr.Pokemon's place.
->So, they gave me the mystery egg, Elm called, you know how this goes, the fight against my rival Kaz was easy enough. He also has a totodile, but it was easily deafeated (don't know why but there is a sandstorm n route 29).
->Now I'm on route 30 looking for a poison type, before the first gym, a weedle perhaps. Actually I went to the dark cave a caught a Zubat, named him Zon.
