Hello everyone! After a sudden revival of the last thread, I thought it was necessary to create a new thread.

Welcome to the 4th version of The Username Letter Challenge!

This challenge is very simple! All you must to do is take the first six letters of your username and choose any Pokemon that start with those letters (if you have numbers in your username, ignore those, and instead use the letters). Also, if your username is less than 6 letters, base your team off however many letters you have.

(Rules copypasted from last thread)
Rules:
° Trading is permitted BUT the level of that Pokemon must be on par with the ones on your team
° Hacking a Pokemon is allowed ONLY if the Pokemon you're planning on using isn't available to catch in your game
° Legendaries are permitted to only one per team
° HM slaves are allowed but they must not be a member of your team
° Your Pokemon must always keep the same first letter of it's name( If your letter was M and you caught Mankey to evolve into Primeape, you can't since they don't share the same first letter.)
Changing it's name does not count and therefore doesn't bypass this rule.


Here's a list of the Pokemon by letter: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_by_name


The challenge ends when you:
RBY/FRLG: Defeat your rival after the Elite 4
R/S/E: Defeat Steven
GSC/HGSS: Defeat Red on Mt. Silver
DPPt: Defeat Cynthia after the Elite 4
BW: Defeat Alder
B2W2: Defeat Iris

I've finished Gold!

JOHTO
Spoiler:

-Started with Chikorita nicknamed M for Meganium
-no catches until Zubat at Dark Cave (nicknamed C for Crobat)
-Defeated Falkner with just Zubat
-Now a Golbat, I defeated Bugsy
-Caught Snubbull outside Goldenrod, nicknamed G for Granbull
-Annihilated Whitney with my quad
-Got Bill's Eevee, nicknamed E for Espeon!

Progressing through the game...

Morty was defeated by Golbat's Bite.
Meganium defeated Chuck in Cianwood, then Jasmine in Olivine.

Granbull took out Pryce with STAB Strength.
Eevee--->Espeon!!! (Three hundred frustrating hours prior)
Golbat--->Crobat!!! Just before Clair, I added the final member of my team: Teddiursa (Route outside Blackthorn) and Igglybuff (caught Jiggly, then bred it with Ditto)

Igglybuff became my team's official mascot and provided Flash where necessary. Nicknamed I for obvious reasons.

Teddiursa--->Ursaring (nicknamed U)

Clair was defeated thanks to Ursaring and Granbull's Ice Punch. Ice Punch and Earthquake are two of the most valuable moves to use in a playthrough of Gold.

ELITE FOUR
Kanto already? If you say so...

WILL
Based Espeon came through with Bite and Shadow Ball.

KOGA
Espeon and Crobat combined for an excellent victory.

BRUNO
Espeon, Crobat and Meganium won this match for me.

KAREN
I used the entire team, but mostly Ursaring for this battle. That Umbreon is tough.

LANCE
Granbull and Ursaring won me this fight because of Ice Punch. Those Dragonites didn't stand a chance.

The whole team promptly finished Johto/E4 around Lv.52.


But wait! There's more!

KANTO
Spoiler:

-Went straight after Surge and beat him with Ursauring's Earthquake.
-To continue Earthquaking, I beat Janine.
-I went back to Erika and beat her with Crobat and Granbull.
-Misty was an easy fight for Meganium.

Snorlax event, grabbed the Leftovers.

-Brock and Blaine were easy defeated by Meganium and Ursaring.

BLUE
This one wasn't a cakewalk. I had Granbull finish Pidgeot, Exeggutor, and Rhydon with Ice Punch.
-Meganium Toxic'd Gyarados until it fainted.
Arcanine was blown away with one last Earthquake from Ursaring.

RED
This one finished pretty smoothly. Perhaps the image of Red has made him an overrated Trainer. My squad beat him in the low 60's with strategy.

Ursaring cleaned up his Pika with Strength.
His Espeon was outmatched by my own Espeon using Bite and Shadow Ball.
Espeon stayed out to finish Venusaur.
Meganium Toxic'd Snorlax to death. I'm surprised that Snorlax did not use Rest at any point, and Red did not use his Full Restores on Snorlax.

Meganium stayed out for Blastoise, and it Razor Leafed with a few nice critical hits mixed in.

At last, Charizard. I had Espeon hit him hard with Psychic and then Bite. GAME OVER!

Time for a mini update!

Progress - [2/8]

My Adventure Thus Far:
Spoiler:
-(Remember, Fire Red Omega, so a little different) Received my starter: Elekid, nicknamed him Zeus.
-Made my way to Pewter City
-Grinded. So hard. None of my team was available just yet, so getting Zeus to defeat the tougher Pewter City gym took a lot of work.
-Finally beat Brock and received his badge. Zeus was level 18 for this victory, a bit more overleveled than I'd have liked, but it was necessary.
-Left Pewter City and entered the cave to take me to Cerulean City.
-Made it to Cerulean, fought Misty, and easily beat the whole gym with Zeus.
-Fought my rival and the nugget bridge.


My Current Team:
Spoiler:
Zeus -
Level 24 Electabuzz


I'm most likely going to hack in a new teammate if it'll be awhile before I can add another member.

It's funny because I myself had to use Igglybuff. You don't have to use Iggly, because it's hard enough to obtain it in the first place! Just make him the mascot when you reach the Elite Four (I recommend using an HM Slave in its place). Have fun with the challenge!
