12 type Challenge.

Spoiler:

Well, I did mean this challenge with the rule of 'no Cheating at all ever', resulting in the forced use of at least one pokémon found early in the game, for instance I did the first gym in Platinum using only a Magikarp. What you're doing, I feel is sort of ruining the spirit of the challenge, which may include looking long and hard for your selected pokémon you are using. But it's your choice. It's good to plan out a team, but you have to be aware as to where to catch them.
But enough of my ranting.
This is a fairly free challenge, and you can cheat if you want.
Who's going to stop you?

Ok, no matter what.
I'm sorry for begging you, I'll do this without trading or cheat.
Just a long training at the beginning (you'll understand why).
So, I'll change my team. Drastically.

In order of finding, we have...

[PokeCommunity.com] 12 type Challenge.
[PokeCommunity.com] 12 type Challenge.
[PokeCommunity.com] 12 type Challenge.
[PokeCommunity.com] 12 type Challenge.


And the types used are...

Fire-Fighting, Flying-Psychic, Bug-Poison, Water-Rock, Ground-Electric, Dark-Steel.

So, thinking it's all OK, I've already started.
All I've done is defeating the first Gym, completed the Abandoned Lot of Dreams and Underground Water Hole events, and catched Koromori, now grinding him.

My next update will have screenshots... but since I don't have 15 posts yet... my next update will be after I can add these screenshots.
 
Well, I've just got my Quake Badge!
I'm now in the Electric Rock Cave, coming up next... N battle, and the 6th Gym!

PS: I'm sorry, but I'm playing White, not Black. I made a mistake, can you change? Thanks :)

EDIT: I'm now in Route 9, next to Souryuu City.

EDIT 2: Arrived at Pokèmon League, now grinding to level 55 before entering.

Does not anyone update here? :D

Well, we do, but we're all pretty chilled about it, so some people do it often, some rarely and some just get on with it.

Like me :D
I update often, because I love play Pokèmon games, and I play 'em so quickly, I'm getting very fast on White <3

Now I've defeated Pokèmon League, N and Geechisu, and also catched Zekrom.

User: Midnight Moon~
Player: Sky
Game: FireRed
Pokémon: Pidgeot, Haunter, Magneton, Rhydon, Exeggutor, Lapras
Types: Flying, Normal, Ghost, Poison, Electric, Steel, Ground, Rock, Grass, Psychic, Water, Ice

This'll be fun, I've never used half these pokemon. Probably will have some trouble with Brock, though, using only a pidgey/pidgeotto xD..
 
I have finally completed my Challenge with the end of Wallace.
[PokeCommunity.com] 12 type Challenge.

My Final Team Was:
Spoiler:


Team Order:

6. Shedinja - Useful early, but in the second half of the game, it lost it's usefulness. FST(Final Stat Total)= 338
5. Swellow - Again, Useful Early, but didn't lose much usefulness because he could still deal big damage and fast. FST= 604
4. Camerupt - Useful throughout, but just couldn't hit fast enough and the last gym and Champion stole his supremeness. FST= 626
3. Breloom - Like Swellow, but was able to destroy Sidney and Glacia, making him very useful for me. FST= 618
2. Magneton - Magneton was very useful, because he was the complete opposite of Camerupt. Able to obliterate water and ice types. FST= 632
1. Tentacruel - He stood out from the rest like a god, because he abused the fact that the Elite 4 all attacks mainly with Special Attacks, so he was able to take their hits, poison them and stay standing until they fainted. FST= 692

This was an awesome challenge, thank you for the idea.

I find myself posting a lot more when I am playing the earlier games too, because of the speed button on the VBA emulator - No$GBA doesn't have one.

Also, Porygon Z, PLEASE put spoiler tags around your Gen V posts! I would rather wait to find out what's going on by playing the game.
 
The idea is very good, I really like it, however I see ppl posting their teams here before they start playing? can I just choose 6 Pokemon before I start and trade them when I start? you said no hacks, but what? is that ( trading ) allowed? if so, count me in!

People post teams before the start in order to prevent any miscalculations about typing. The challenge is designed to force players to use "local" pokémon, so as long as the trading is to evolve already caught pokémon. If you want to choose just 6 pokémon that you like, it is best to choose a generation that they are all in! (you know, before the league)
 
Name: DCodyK
Version: Platinum
Team: Torterra, Gallade, Honchkrow, Froslass, Magnezone Bibarel
Types: Grass-Ground, Fighting-Psychic, Dark-Flying, Ice-Ghost, Steel-Electric, Normal-Water
 
Whatever, I've now completed the challenge, I think.
I've captured all the Legendaries except Randorusu, defeated Elite 4 again, also Rivals, C*****a and Morimoto. Is this ok?

New Entry/Only Possible Teams for RBY

After doing extensive cross-referencing manually, I discovered the only possible teams for RBY is the following (include the family tree of course):

Charizard/Dragonite/Zapdos/Pidgeot/Moltres/Fearow/Farfetch'd
Jynx
Golem/Rhydon/Onix
Parasect
Gengar
Poliwrath

However, as you must have at least 1 of these pokemon prior to the first gym, you must either hack/cheat, or choose Pidgeot or Charizard (for RB only).
Not a lot of choice there :/

So, anyways:

User: fleirdo
Player: James
Game: Blue
Pokémon: Charizard, Jynx, Rhydon, Gengar, Parasect, and Poliwrath
Types: Fire/Flying, Ice/Psychic, Rock/Ground, Poison/Ghost, Bug/Grass, and Water/Fighting

Yes, that is true. Not a lot to say here. Although, you forgot some options, such as Fearow.
It's easier in FireRed, etc because of Scizor, Steelix and Magneton, though.
 
does anyone else only do challenges that have banners for them? Any way, I AM IN!
i am gonna do this on pokemon ruby using and the name devon since it resembles dozen, like the # 12

red=updated

my pokes are gonna be my fav poke Blaziken, Walrein flygon Armaldo Shiftree skarmery (i said i was gonna use salemence instead of flygon but that was cause i confused bagon for gible and thought i could get him early under the bicicle road, oh well, and i totally forgot about skarmery intill i saw it.)

alright started with the torchic then caught a sedot at lv 3, wish i new i doesn't gain any moves intill lv 12 : ( that sucked to train but did it and gave it the TM bullet seed 1 lv before i gained a attack : ( sigh. whell i beat the first gym with my nuzleaf anf cumbuskin (spelled wrong) just beat the second gym before i got tired so thats it for day 1

sorry i hadent updated in a while(like 2 days) but i beat the challenge!!! there was a huge blizarrd so i was stuck inside and rammed my way through this challenge. it's weird, i thought shiftree would be prettymuch usless against the elete four because of his bad typing and moveset but his one dark attack and i gave him brick break those 2 attacks were useful against the first 3 elete four( ice dark steel) but walrein's waer ice and blazikens fire and fighting attacks were most useful- skarmery and anorith were prettymuch useless. i will now claim my reward of ur banner. YEAH!!!
