I'm not sure what phone emulator Flame uses, but I do know that the emulator I have on my phone does not yet support hacking.
I'm using VGBA emulator and it has preset codes on there and I was going to get Dratini by third badge and Bagon as my Starter and rest normally

Well, I started my Fairy challenge, so I figured I'd update with my progress. ^.^

Spoiler:
-Started with Chespin, and continued through to Santalune.
-Caught Azurill and boxed Chespin.
-Began training Azurill, and blacked out against a wild Farfetch'd and Litleo.
-Blacked out against Lass Elin -- it's complete crap that she has a level 6 Marill, and I'm stuck with an Azurill. >.<;;;
-After reaching level 12, I (stupidly) decided to try to take on the gym. I actually did pretty well against the first two trainers, but I lost due to poison damage from Lass Charlotte's Kakuna. WHY would they give a trainer a Poison move if you're not able to buy Antidotes yet???
-Still being stupid, I challenged the gym a second time. I got past Lass Charlotte this time, but she poisoned me again. I still didn't have any Antidotes, and since there's no way to exit the gym without either losing or beating Viola, I had no choice to challenge her with a poisoned Azurill. It went about as well as expected.
-I backtracked and battled some more trainers before challenging the gym again. (Why I didn't do that in the first place, I will never know.) I managed to get Viola's Vivillion down to one hit point left, and then lost, with no money left and no more Potions. I'm not going to lie, it was so frustrating that it drove me to tears.
-I went back to Route 22 and began grinding Azurill nonstop until she hit level 20 and learned Slam. I challenged Viola for the third time, and swept her easily. :)

This is probably far ahead of time, but I figured I ought to address the changes that will come with Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. It's still too early for there to be any spoilers so don't worry about that just now.

Probably the most important change this brings, is the addition of a new region with Fairies in it. With a fair number of fairies in the Hoenn Dex, it can be said now that Fairy Type will be viable for Ultimate Monotypes. It's only 2 games, sure, but 2 Pokemon is all it takes to qualify for a monotype, so 2 games should be reasonable for Ultimate.

Now, if Pokemon Amie and the Exp Share carry over, they will remain banned due to how they nerf the challenge significantly. Of we're lucky, they'll go back to the original Exp Share, but I wouldn't count on it.

Mega Evolution is still in question as of now, since the Starters alone have a higher BST than the Pseudo Legendary Pokemon, but at the same time it's an important part of X and Y. I will finalize my decision after playing the new games, as they will likely have Megas available in game that were only post game in X and Y.

Another update; a lot happened today. :)

Spoiler:
-Caught Flabebe and began training her.
-After getting her to a high enough level, continued onto Lumiose City and battled Professor Sycamore.
-Battled Tierno on Route 5; Flabebe fainted during this battle due to having taken previous damage and I had no healing items left.
-I had to flee from the battle with the wild Snorlax -- it was just too strong for my Flabebe to fight, and I didn't want to have to use Azurill.
-Received Swirlix in a trade, and she evolved immediately into Slurpuff. She was the lowest leveled Pokemon I had, though, so I went back to Route 5 to train her.
-Flabebe evolved into Floette after the tag battle against Tierno and Trevor.
-Caught Mawile and went back to Route 8 to train him.
-Azurill evolved into Marill.
-Caught Snubbull, who was actually at the same level as the rest of my team; continued to train for Grant.
-Snubbull evolved into Granbull.
-Marill evolved into Azumarill.
-Finally trained everyone up to level 26 and took on Grant. His Amaura gave me some trouble, but other than that, the battle went pretty well.

Pokemon Sapphire Monotype Playthrough: Completion!

Day 2

Spoiler:

Today was a great day for my team! As we left off yesterday, my team consisted of three Pokemon: Swampert (pomp), Wingull (sandy) and Lombre (grassbaby). We were a solid team, but we were no way as strong as my previous teams. We would win most matches, but a few we would just get our butts handed to us. So, we stepped things up and started training immensely! Along the way we caught a Chinchou (sparkplug_ which later evolved into a Lantun, then a Magikarp in Sootopolis City which wold later evolve into Gyarados (dragon2).

Throughout the day we explored abondoned ships, dove int othe depths of the ocean and even saved the region from Kyogre as we reached stardom by defeating the Pokemon League Champion, Steven! I started playing today at about 4 PM and completed my adventure at 12:39 AM. It was a great day, and had much fun playing through the game.

-Defeated Team Flare in Frost Cavern.
-Trained everyone up to Olympia's level.

-Defeated Team Flare at Lysandre Labs.
-Captured Yvetal and defeated Lysandre in Geosenge. I actually had a lot of difficulty with him -- both battles. His Gyarados in particular was a pain, since it had Iron Head.

A Fledgling's Emergence - Part 1

(I'll be doing this in a journal-ish form so I apologize for the TL;DR.)

Spoiler:
And so I begin my journey with those that dwell in the sky. I was, admittedly, overeager. Trying to leave the town early. Luckily for me, Oak stopped me. Practically dragging me back to his lab, however, was both frightening and unnecessary. But he wanted me to pick my first pokemon! I couldn't really believe he would choose me, but then, his grandson had been a thorn in my side since we were young so I suppose it wasn't actually that shocking. I looked between the three. All of them stared up at me eagerly. After much deliberation, I reached out, claiming the Charmander as my own. Her name? Elima.

Luo, of course, picked Squirtle. He'd always do that! Wait for me to make my choice then make his to beat mine. It's why I never played Rock Paper Scissors with him anymore, that's for sure. But Elima wasn't about to back down. She took his squirtle down with ease. He left, begrudgingly, as I chuckled behind him. It seemed like type advantage wouldn't always get the win, and he would learn that in time. All the same, I smiled, said my goodbye to Oak, and set out, Elima at my side.

Or so I thought. Turns out by the next town I had to be his errand girl. A package had arrived for him in the pokemart there. A package that I had to deliver. So I trudged back, Elima making sure every Pidgey and Rattata we ran into regretted charging. I couldn't let my frustration get the better of me however. I plastered a smile on my face and gave him the parcel. In return he thrust a pokedex into my hands, as well as some pokeballs. A quick stop to Luo's sister for a map and I could begin my adventure for real this time.

I decided to forgo a Pidgey, despite a minor thought to do otherwise. Maybe another time. MY goal was a Spearow, which I found in Route 22. Fearing Elima would kill it, I threw a ball right away. And thus Nili was added to my roster. But before I could train her to Elima's level, there was one other thing I needed, which I found on route 2. Feeling the same fear, I still managed to get Rehan the Caterpie into my ranks. Quickly training them up to Elima's level and I was ready to continue exploration. And then... Luo stopped me again. Elima and Nili got a good workout and ultimately I did emerge victorious. At least he told me I couldn't proceed the direction I was going just yet. Which, admittedly, was really helpful. So I went through the forests instead, getting experience from the bug trainers therein.

Upon emerging I saw Pewter city in sight. I began to race towards it, excited to get my first badge. Yes, I knew I was at a sheer disadvantage in typing but that didn't stop me from battling Luo in the beginning! I went in with confidence, and despite the disadvantage, had very few issues in winning my first badge! Recieving a TM as well, that I likely wouldn't use, I turned and left. I was still shaky. I had beaten a gym leader! Hopefully it would be the first of many.

More trainers fell to my amazing trio, and before long I found myself standing before Mt. Moon. Within I found my next member, A Zubat named Wolmek. I began to train him to be on par with the others, preparing to proceed through Mt. Moon, to whatever treasures and dangers may await me within and beyond.


TL;DR
Spoiler:
I got my first badge, and four pokemon. I'm training up a Zubat.

Hey everyone! I haven't updated anything in a while, but I have a lot of ongoing monotypes that I've been playing intermittently for the past few months, some of which I don't think I've signed up for yet. Since my summer break is started, I've decided to go through and finish all of the games I started one at a time! First, a proper sign up for some of the additional ultimates I have started:

Username: Gulpin (previously deku)
Type: Bug, Poison, and Fire
Ultimate or Single: Ultimate (all)

For all of those games I've already started playing through one of the regions for the ultimates, which I'll update on later. In addition to those games, I'm going to work on finishing up my started ultimates one game at a time.

The first update will be for my Fighting Ultimate, in the Kalos region! As of now, I've earned my first five gym badges and I'll be working on making progress and finishing it up in the next few days. Currently, I am on Route 14 spending some time leveling up my team, which is:
Chesnaught / Lv. 36 / Pin Missile, Bite, Seed Bomb, Rollout
Gallade / Lv. 36 / Magical Leaf, Psycho Cut, Double Team, Power-Up Punch
Pangoro / Lv. 36 / Body Slam, Karate Chop, Arm Thrust, Vital Throw
Hawlucha / Lv. 35 / Karate Chop, Flying Press, Roost, Aerial Ace
Lucario / Lv. 36 / Power-Up Punch, Swords Dance, Metal Sound, Bone Rush

✔Pokemon Red Version
✔Pokemon Crystal Version
✔Pokemon Sapphire Version
✔Pokemon Pearl Version

So I finally got around to doing more of my challenge:

9th Update, Fire Challenge, Black 2
-caught Terrakion
-moved the Crustle in Seaside Cave
-boarded the Plasma Frigate

-Fought a crapload of Plasma grunts. There's 2 things I don't get about this part though: 1) There's a guy blocking the entrance to the southern part of the ship, but he's sleeping....can't I just sneak past him or something? 2) You have to deactivate those electrical barriers in order to proceed. Just for fun I touched it, and all that happens is a shocky sound and a message that says "Be careful! The barriers are electrified!" NO ♥♥♥♥ GAME, I KNOW THAT! But shouldn't I be dead? Or at least convulsing on the floor? Some barrier that is....

-Defeated Zinzolin. Pushover.
-after getting rudely thrown off the boat, I made my way to the Giant Chasm
-Hopped back on board the Frigate (man their security sucks) and single-handedly beat down the other half of the Neo Plasma army. Why is it that I do all the work around here anyway? Oh well, I loveses to fight *v*
-Defeated Colress. Colress was easy, since 4/5 of his party is Steel types. I thought he had a ghost in a washing machine, but I guess that's only post game.
-Became the sole audience member for one of Ghetsis's speeches, defeated the Shadow Triad
-followed Ghetsis into the depths of the Chasm and saw one of the game's very very few cutscenes
-Beat Black Kyurem. It's so powerful, but this fight is always so easy. And so then:

I beat up Ghetsis. No, not Sage Ghetsis. I didn't beat up Necrum. What's wrong with you people?

Anyway, like in Black1/White1, Ghetsis proves to be pretty much the storyline's only good opponent. I was worried there for a minute that he might beat me. Actually had to resort to using multiple Revives and healing items for this battle, and only Darmanitan was alive at the end of the battle with about 50% HP. Whew....

I defeated AZ a few moments ago, marking my second completed Ultimate under the sixth generation standard! I plowed through the final few routes and easily defeated the eighth gym leader, Wulfric. I just got through Victory Road and decided to plow straight in to battling the Elite Four (without my usual grinding and moveset adjusting). I defeated Drasna first, and then Malva who gave me a bit of trouble. I then defeated Siebold pretty easily, and finished up with Wikstrom who wasn't too bad. As for Dianca, the hardest members of her team were Hawlucha and, as usual, Gardevoir. The rest of her team fell pretty easily to my fighting types, however. After defeating her, AZ didn't pose much of a threat xD
As for my MVP, it would have to be Pangoro. It didn't really shine until it proved to be extremely helpful with most of the E4, as evidenced by its higher level. In addition, Hawlucha was a very reliable team member throughout the entire challenge.

Chesnaught / Lv. 64 / Hammer Arm, Wood Hammer, Seed Bomb, Shadow Claw
Gallade / Lv. 63 / Close Combat, Psycho Cut, Double Team, Power-Up Punch
Pangoro / Lv.65 / Dragon Claw, Sky Uppercut, Crunch, Hammer Arm
Hawlucha / Lv. 64 / High Jump Kick, Flying Press, Fly, Aerial Ace
Lucario / Lv. 64 / Dragon Pulse, Close Combat, Aura Sphere, Bone Rush
