I guess I can try this out.
Name: The Masked One
Game: Fire Red
No held items rule?: I'm okay with no held items. I can take it.

Also, is it okay if I try to do this in all main-series games rather than just one? :P

Yes, that is perfectly acceptable! Not only do I allow it, but I encourage it.

I have been a bit on the inactive side lately but I am still checking this thread, so I will be able to view progress here. Also I have made a few changes to the rules. (I need to get back to my challenge here, i've been way behind...)

Aand two more badges obtained- They were both a joke though D: I kinda overleveled both Sceptile and Primeape because the other pokes were not so good so yep they kinda sweeped through both gyms~

We also got our first departure - James the koffing decided to leave us (It had the worst nature out of all of my pokes and it had the worst moveset+it was the weakest and slowest to level up)

We also got some new pokes:
Spoiler:
Another bagon that I cannot evolve (From fighting Dojo- the second options was miltank .-. ) - It might actually be used later if needed
A spoink that I also cannot evolve
A meditate that I can evolve- Good backup in case Primeape ever decides to leave
A Porygon 2 (Instead of Eevee) - But I cannot use it.
Spearow that I could evolve and joined my team
Doduo that I can evolve and is a backup in case Spearow ever decides to leave
Koffing that I could evolve but it decided to leave us.
Phanpy that I could evolve into donphan.
I don't care about EV's or IV's - I play for fun not competitive.
I don't own consoles - I play on emulators on my computer.

Alright, update time:
Spoiler:
I chose to be the boy character (Named him Lucas), then decided to choose Bulbasaur, which I named Rodney, as my BFL. Battled my Rival (Blue, just because) and unfortunately got defeated by him. However, Prof. Oak paid Blue instead of me and I left for Viridian City. I picked up the Parcel from the guy at the Pokemart, and delivered it to Oak. After that, I got a Pokedex then headed off for Viridian once again...when suddenly, I ran into a Pidgey! I decided to catch it and named him Leonard, then once I got to Viridian I decided to check out Route 22. I was attacked by a Mankey, which I caught and named Hal. Unfortunately I got a 12, so I can't evolve it. I went through Viridian Forest, and leveled my Pokemon a bit. After that, I arrived in Pewter City, and battled Brock. He wasn't a threat, due to me having a Bulbasaur as my BFL. I then defeated him, and received the Boulder Badge and TM39, Rock Tomb.


Team:
Spoiler:


Mankey, Hal, Level 6 (Male) (Cannot Evolve)
- Scratch
- Leer

Pidgey, Leonard, Level 6 (Male) (Can Evolve)

Bulbasaur, Rodney, Level 12 (Male) (Cannot Evolve, BFL)

Got a huge update here.
Spoiler:
I left the gym, and went out for Route 3. I was stopped by Prof. Oak's aide, who gave me the running shoes. Then, Hal the Mankey decided to leave me, unfortunately, so I said goodbye. From there, I caught a Nidoran Female to make up for it. I named it Lucy. But, when I got to Route 4...Leonard the Pidgey decided to leave me too! It was a bad day, but I had to at least try to get through Mt. Moon. So I attempted it, and found a bunch of Team Rocket grunts in there I had to fight. I defeated them...and that caused Lucy the Nidoran to evolve! Due to me getting a 3, she decided to evolve even further...into Nidoqueen! With the help of a Moon Stone, of course. I then fought a Super Nerd, and as a prize, got a Helix Fossil. I then got out of the cave, and got to Route 4 yet again, where I caught a Spearow named Will. Then, I finally made it to Cerulean, where I battled it out with my rival.

His Pidgeotto was always able to deliver a nasty Gust and Quick Attack combo, as well as that darn Sand Attack. Abra was kind of easy to beat - it kept spamming Teleport. Rattata was also easy to defeat, it's a Rattata, need I say more? Finally, his Charmander was tough to beat, but my Pokemon overcame his attacks and won.

I arrived on Route 24, but Will the Spearow left me. I crossed Nugget Bridge and got a Nugget, then caught a Weedle named Taxi there. I decided to head to Route 25 and got the SS Ticket when I visited Bill. I then arrived back in Cerulean, and decided to take on Misty.

Misty had a Level 18 Staryu, and a Level 21 Starmie. I was able to defeat them both, but it took a bit of grinding.

Then, Taxi the Weedle left me as I journeyed south to Vermillion. I caught a Pidgey named Luke along the way. Then, eventually, I made it to Vermillion, where I boarded the S.S. Anne.

After that, I evolved Pidgey, took on a bunch of trainers, and then battled my Rival again.

My rival's team was no different from last time, except for the fact that he gained some levels and evolved his Rattata, Abra and Charmander. Pidgeotto took next to no effort to take out, Raticate was also easy to take out as well, Charmeleon was...a bit moderate...and due to my team being 95% Poison, Kadabra was kind of hard to defeat. But, I managed to defeat him anyway, and I entered the Captain's room and got HM01 - Cut. I left the S.S. Anne, and watched it leave for sea.

I then decided to take on the Gym here, which L.T. Surge was running. I solved the puzzle in one try, and challenged L.T. Surge.

He had a Voltorb, Pikachu and Raichu. Voltorb had no real deadly moves. Same for Pikachu and Raichu, but Raichu was still a bit tough. The only dangerous moves that Surge had was Thunder Wave, but alas, I still won and got the badge anyway.


Team:
Spoiler:


Pidgeotto, Luke, Level 20 (Male) (Cannot Evolve)

No held items rule?: Sure


Why the heck not? also skewing some of the rules for a greater challenge BTW:


Each possible evolution has a 5/12 chance of happening.


5/12 -> 4/12 (1/3)


For each new numbered route you enter after the first Gym, there is a 3/16 chance that one of your team members will leave, again determined by random number generator.


3/16 -> 4/16 (1/4)


The exception is that if the Pokémon has evolved twice while owned by you, you may teach it 3 TM moves.


3 TM moves -> 2 TM moves


EDIT: Update 1


-Started game
-Picked Chimchar (not using for BFL, so temporary)
-Obtained Running Shoes

Updates Archive:
Spoiler:
Chose Squirtle as starter (not bro for life). Got the Pokedex from Oak after delivering parcel. Caught a Rattata on Route 1 (bro for life). Used Squirtle to help train Rattata up to level 5. After that, I released Squirtle -- it was painful.
---
Caught Nidoran (f) on Route 22. Trained my Pokemon up and defeated rival on Route 22. Caught Caterpie in Viridian Forest. Grinded to evolve it into Butterfree and to make it learn Confusion. Took on Brock with Rattata and Butterfree and received the Boulder Badge.
---
Caught Zubat in Mt. Moon. Taught Rattata Water Gun via TM because I forgot about the TM rule (sigh). Taught Nidoran(f) TM Bide as well. Random number generator tells me Nidoran(f) can evolve, so I get a Nidorina. After finding a Moon Stone I run the RNG again and it tells me Nidorina can evolve into Nidoqueen eventually, but for now I keep Nidorina. I reach the end of Mt. Moon and on Route 4 the RNG makes a Departure occur. I release Zubat "because he was too attached to his family of Zubats inside Mt. Moon and didn't want to leave." On Route 4 I catch a Sandshrew. Then I grind for a bit and defeat my rival at Nugget Bridge. Defeating his Pidgeotto with Rattata was very rewarding. I'm proud of my BFL ;-;
---
Got the S.S. Ticket from Bill and beat Misty after losing twice before. I must admit I accidentally broke the rules in my battle with Misty. I was in the heat of the moment and forgot the rule about not using the same attack three times in a row. By the time I thought about it, I had already saved. It's a shame, but I'm still going to continue. I'll just be more careful.
---
Three freakin' departures: Butterfree and Sandshrew are gone. Hurts. "Butterfree wanted to stay and look after bug Pokemon that didn't have a home because the day care center was full. Sandshrew found its long lost brothers and wanted to stay with them." I caught a Meowth and then on the Route east of Vermillion the RNG forced another departure, so Meowth left "because it actually belonged to a girl in Vermillion City, who hadn't ever put it inside a Pokeball, so it seemed wild." Anyway, to make up for this nonsense I caught a Bellsprout in the grass west of Nugget Bridge. Nidorina evolved into Nidoqueen via Moonstone when we got to Vermillion City.
---
Caught a Spearow on the Route east of Vermillion (the one past Diglett's Cave with all the trainers). Defeated rival on S.S. Anne. Got HM01 Cut and taught it to Bellsprout. Spearow evolved, but sadly Bellsprout will never evolve. And then good ole Rattata swept Lt. Surge's team, barely surviving a Thunderbolt. I remembered the rule about not using the same move more than twice in a row this time.
---
Caught a Voltorb on Route 9 and taught it Flash. In Rock Tunnel I caught a Geodude. Defeated my Rival in Pokemon Tower. Route 8 called for a departure, so I released Geodude "because someone in Pokemon Tower once had a Geodude that died, and I felt sorry for them, so I gave them my Geodude." Caught a Meowth again on Route 8. Caught a Vulpix on Route 7. RNG says it can evolve via Fire Stone when I wish it. Defeated Team Rocket in Game Corner hideout. Taught Fearow the TM for Razor Wind (I regret it) and HM02 Fly. Defeated Erika in a 3-on-3 battle using Vulpix, Fearow, and Rattata.
---
Picked up Eevee from Celadon building. Meowth had to depart because "it decided to stay and help out at the Lavender Town Pokemon Center after realizing a passion for helping sick Pokemon." Bellsprout departed on Route 14 because "the wild Bellsprouts wanted it as their leader/protector." Caught another Bellsprout on Route 15 and taught it Cut. Used Fire Stone on Vulpix and it evolved into Ninetales. Taught Voltorb TM Thunderbolt, but it will never evolve. Defeated Koga in a 4-on-4 using Rattata, Ninetales, Fearow, and Nidoqueen. Fearow put in so much work it was crazy.

Went to Safari Zone where I caught a Rhyhorn, Exeggcute, and Psyduck. Got HM03 Surf and taught it to Psyduck. Also got HM04 Strength and taught it to Rhyhorn. Went to Saffron and forced Team Rocket out of Silph Co., defeated rival, and got Lapras. In the battle with Giovanni I let Rattata brush off his Nidorino and Kanghaskhan without issue, and then almost took down his Rhyhorn, but randomly missed a Quick Attack at the last moment. Also taught Surf and Earthquake to Nidoqueen (1 TM teaching left). Taught TM Rock Slide to Rhyhorn.

Defeated Fighting Dojo and got Hitmonlee. Defeated Sabrina in a 4-on-4 using Rattata, Ninetales, Fearow, and Voltorb. Rattata did the most, taking out her first 3 Pokemon and halving Alakazam before I switched out to Ninetales, who finished it off.
---
Got to Cinnabar and found the Secret Key in the mansion. Taught Ninetales Toxic. Defeated Blain in a 4-on-4 using Rattata, Fearow, Nidoqueen, and Ninetales. Rattata did most of the work, defeating his first 3 Pokemon and getting Arcanine to red HP before finally fainting. Nidoqueen finished up. Then I went to Viridian and defeated Giovanni in a 5-on-5 using Rattata, Fearow, Ninetales, Nidoqueen, and Rhyhorn. Rattata brought down his Rhyhorn. His Dugtrio gave me a little bit of trouble with its crit-happy Slash attack. After the battle I decided to teach Nidoqueen her final TM, Ice Beam. Now that I have 8 badges I plan to grind so my Pokemon are better prepared for the upcoming Elite Four.


Latest Update:
Grinded a lot so Voltorb and Rhyhorn could catch up and then lost to my rival once before beating him the second time. Got through Victory Road. Gen 1 is frustrating.

Rattata (BFL)

I have already started this challenge. Changing the rules just slightly. My bfl will have the same evolution chances as normal. I will also be making the rule that I can't roll for an evolution until the Pokemon is at a level it is ready to evolve. I also have made the rule that I can only evolve Pokemon after a big battle. This will leave some room for some judgement calls. Rival battles, gym battles, Wally battles and battles with Aqua/magma bosses will likely be the list. Lastly, I am going to make it so I role for departures after gym The same events that cause Pokemon to evolve. I think the big events will allow me for more creative storyline a.

I will be playing on a hack I have never played before: Theta Emerald

I agree with the rule about rolling for an evolution only when the Pokemon is at the evolution level. It makes it so that you aren't so biased about departures (i.e. if you have to make a choice about which Pokemon will depart, you pick the one that will not evolve).

Theta Emerald is really cool. Good idea.

-Started the game, imported Absol egg as BFL.
-Caught a Lotad on Route 103.
-Caught a Marill on Route 104.
-Caught a Shroomish in Petalburg Woods.
-VS Roxanne: Since she has an extra Geodude in Emerald I'm allowed 3 pokémon so my team is Shroomish, Marill and Absol because it has Taunt. Did that work? Hell no, she used both her potions on Nosepass and I pretty much only won by luck.
-Had to release someone already, god dammit. Well, I guess we won't be seeing Lotad any more.

I had to get used to the consecutive moves rule but I got it down once I got to Roxanne. Also I gave Absol Faint Attack as an egg move so I'd have some variety.

Nice!!! Sounds interesting, I might do this and record it after I'm done my other challenge. So I understood the rng part, so everytime I received or catch one I run the rng for the evo chance? And everytime I reach a new route i run the rng as well. Also I got a ask, in the anime ash poke sometimes comes back for key parts, why not do that for this challenge?
As well for the consecutive move rule, does this mean I can't use outrage?

UPDATE!
Spoiler:

Dear Diary,
It was a regular day in Aspertia City for me until my mum told me that I was to go and find a woman with a big green hat by the name of Bianca. So I head out and am met by my friend Riker who is again pestering me about getting a pokemon, so I explain to him about having to find Bianca and he decides to come with me to see her. Once we find her she hands me a pokedex and shows me three pokemon that all could become my partner. My hand hovers over the cute water type Oshawott and I take it and call it Draco. After beating's Riker's Snivy Bianca acts as my mentor and takes me to the Pokecenter before telling me to meet her on route 19. When I leave I am met by my mum and Riker's sister who give me a pair of running shoes and Riker's sister wants me to take her brother a town map which I agree to do.

After being taught how to catch a pokemon I ran into a Patrat who looked like she really wanted to come with us so I caught her and named her Katie, while training these two up I met Alder the old champion from a couple of years back and he agreed to train me after giving Riker the town map. As I headed to Flocessy Ranch I encountered a Purrloin that got on well with Katie so she came with us and was named Crook. Once at the Ranch I battled with Riker again and beat him before having to help him find the owner's Hendier. As we looked around I trained mainly Draco and Katie up as we trained we met a Riolu which I knew would help with the first gym so James made up the fourth member of our little gang of misfits. Once we found the missing pokemon and team Plasma fled the scene I decided to train up James so that he could help take on the gym. I trained with Alder's students before training more against wild pokemon.

So the gym itself was actually much harder than I thought mainly because I was slightly under leveled and James didn't survive as long as I thought due to unfortunate mixes of Work Up and crits. So I lost the first time to Cheren but after more training I ended up wining my first badge I was so proud of my boys.

After some reunions and chatting to Professor Juniper I decided that it was time to head to Virbank City knowing that there was a gym there. Once there I met a puppy called Growlithe who I decided to keep and call Sirius. I trained up some more in the Complex remembering about how bad being underleveled was from before and during training I caught a Magnimite called Hermione. I decided then to challenge the gym where Hermione and her amazing defence meant that I didn't need to switch at all making the gym a much easier win than the last. As I was about to leave the gym a guy told me to stop by Pokestar Studios which I duely did and I ended up shooting my first film which was kinda epic. I headed back t Virbank City and rested at the PokeCentre for the night.
