I had a question regarding a trading situation. In Pokemon Gold the only legitimate way to obtain the Psych Up TM is to trade an Abra or Kadabra from Red/Blue into Gold. The Abra or Kadabra will be holding the Psych Up TM.

I was thinking of trying out a strategy involving Swagger and Psych Up on Wigglytuff, but the only legitimate way to teach Wigglytuff Psych Up in Generation II involves a trade. I feel like this is an unusual enough situation where it should be okay, since it's the only way you're capable of getting that TM. Unlike other item trades where you'd be giving yourself an early unfair advantage, this is the intended way to get this item, and it's even locked off from you until the Time Capsule event in Ecruteak. That gives the Psych Up TM a specific time and location in the game where you can obtain it, just like any other item in the game.

Would I be allowed to trade an Abra from Red to get the Psych Up TM?

Update: I'm a winner!
After tons of grinding (and some move reassignments) the Sinnoh Elite Four has been vanquished!

Final Team:
Spoiler:


Stella the ♀ Nidoqueen | Lv. 65 | Rash | @Amulet Coin
Moves:
Surf
Earthquake
Shadow Claw
Sludge Bomb

Comments: MVP. She single-handedly swept a lot of the E4 and I was amazed.


Bambino the ♂ Lopunny | Lv. 61 | Serious | @Soothe Bell
Moves:
Return
Ice Beam
Strength
Grass Knot

Comments: So Bambino ended up faltering in the very end, his moveset and stats didn't measure up with Stella, although he was very helpful in dispatching a few of Lucian's Pokemon (lookin at u Bronzong).


Also, if its possible, can I play through all of HG or SS and consider the Kanto portion of the game as acceptable for the ultimate challenge? If that's the case then I'm gonna turn this into an ultimate, but otherwise I'm going to be setting up several single challenges then. (with Lopunny and Nidoqueen) (SoulSilver, Omega Ruby, Black, Y)
Challenges:
Tri-Species Challenge - Kalos(6/8), Alola(0/8)

No, if you want to do a ultimate challenge, you will need RBY/FRLG.
(If you didn't know already, you can get RBY on 3DS VC)

Hi, I'm interested in doing an ultimate challenge :) but before, I want to check some things :

- Using two un-evolved Pokemon to finish all games without any evolution (not even Mega) is okay right ?
- Doing Fire Red/Heart Gold/Emerald/Platinum/White/White2 and Y is good ?
- May I hack them both at the start of the game the same level as a starter in game ?
- If both faint, Game Over ?

Also, I would like to know what I have to do to prove I've done these games legitimately ? That's it, thanks in avance for answering me :)
You still have lots more to work on.

1. Yes.
2. Yes, any ultimate counts as long as play through all 6 regions at least once.
3. Yes, but make sure they're as legal as possible (i.e. no illegal abilities/moves/stats, etc.).
4. No, if both of your Pokemon faint, you just continue as if you're playing the game normally.

As for proof, it's not needed really, as someone has said recently, there's no gain in lying about it. :)
If you really want to include actual proof, just pictures is enough.

Thanks again for the answer, that's all I needed to know, but as for the fourth condition, it is self imposed :) Anyway, I'll do the Solo-Run ultimate challenge then this one :)

Got it, looks like I'll set up all single challenges until we get our 7th gen Kanto remakes.
