Catman's Challenge Challenge

[11wildy]

This sounds funny xD I have to try it.

Name: 11wildy
Game: Pokemon Crystal (edited such that I can get all trade evolutions by levelup)
Extra Clauses and Rules: I will only catch first encounters everywhere. (shinies are an exception, I can always catch and use these)
Hope it doesn't take too long between each gyms...

Edit: Cleared up to first gym without too many problems. Only Caterpie died, which didn't even levelup once.

Team:

Spoiler:

Cyndaquil
-Ember
-Tackle
-Smokescreen
-Leer

Geodude
-Rock Throw
-Tackle
-Defense Curl

Rattata
-Tackle
-Quick Attack
-Leer

Pidgey
-Gust
-Sand-Attack
-Tackle

All at level 12

Edit 2: So I continued to the next gym, putting Rattata in the PC for the tri-species challenge. Sadly, Pidgeotto died to the second rival battle...

Spoiler:

Quilava
-Ember
-Tackle
-Smokescreen
-Leer

Geodude
-Rock Throw
-Tackle
-Defense Curl
-Magnitude

Both level 17

I don't really understand the next challenge though, as my game doesn't have natures. It would be pretty stupid to just choose natures for Pokemon or something like that.. Kinda weird to do such a challenge on Crystal

 

[ジュナイパー]

Did I say I'd get this done ASAP? I lied.

A combination of life, procrastination, and a vacation have kind of hindered me (mostly the procrastination). Luckily, Ahri reminded me constantly. So I have an important announcement to make.

THE CHALLENGE WILL NOW BE RUN BY YOU PEOPLE!

So, all that you have to do is enter in the list (see below) into this website, and the hit Randomize. Click Here!

Spoiler: Here's that list I was talking about

The Monotype Challenge
The Monocolor Challenge
The Potterlocke Challenge
The Time Warp Challenge
The Anime Style Challenge
The Zodiac Challenge
The Dex Holders Challenge
The Naturelocke Challenge
The Tri-Species Challenge
The Date of Birth Challenge

The first challenge that pops up is the one that you will do during that phase. If you have played that challenge before in a different phase, then you Randomize the list once more. ;)

Now introducing the Necromancy Clause that I mentioned earlier.

If your game randomizes to a challenge where you need a specific kind of Pokemon and you had that Pokemon, but it's dead now, then by putting other Pokemon whose level(s) are equal to or higher than the dead Pokemon in your Graveyead/DeadBox, you can "revive" the Pokemon you need. This is only for the Pokemon that you need.

If you cannot continue the challenge at all, then re-randomize the list.

NOTES FROM CATMAN:​

Concerning the MONOTYPE & MONOCOLOR CHALLENGES
You may choose one Pokemon type/color (to see a Pokemon's color according to the Pokedex, click here and find your Pokemon), then box all of your Pokemon that are not that type/color.

Concerning the POTTERLOCKE CHALLENGE
This challenges rules change depending on the amount of gym badges you currently have. Click Here for more details.

Concerning the TIME WARP CHALLENGE
In the original challenge, you had to choose between 14 different eras, and that edited the rules accordingly. It is no different here, choose whichever era you want. All other Pokemon that do not comply with the era's rules must be boxed until the next phase. Click Here for more details.

Concerning the ANIME STYLE CHALLENGE
The Pokemon on your team that you had for the longest amount of time is your "Bro for Life". If you couldn't evolve a Pokemon during this phase, it is up to you if you are released from that rule once the next phase starts. Click Here for more details.

Concerning the ZODIAC & DATE OF BIRTH CHALLENGES
You are only required to have one of the Pokemon that are in the parties generated by your birthdates.

Concerning the THE DEX HOLDERS' CHALLENGE
This challenge (the nicknames, at least) really only effects your new Pokemon. Choose any character you like! This challenge cannot be your final phase (the phase between your 8th badge and the champion battle).

Concerning Natures
Due to Generations I and II not having natures, use a random list generator for each of your Pokemon.

I decided I will not use the nature stuff.. it is confusing and difficult to do if I cannot just check what nature a Pokemon was again. So I randomized myself the time warp challenge. Stone age was chosen, so I can use Quilava and Geodude, just deposited Rattata for now. Sadly, I had to sacrifice the newly hatched togepi to win against Whitney using Geodude.

Team:
Geodude and Quilava, both level 20, same moves as before.

 

[Junier]

I actually ended up going a different direction with my run so I won't be taking the challenge anymore.

 

[11wildy]

Next randomization is monocolour! I decided to go for Brown, so I could keep using geodude, evolve my Rattata into Raticate and get the Spearow from the dude north of Goldenrod. Sadly, when killing the Sudowoodo, Raticate got killed by a critical hit Rock Throw. So I replaced it with an Abra from the Goldenrod Game Corner. Then Kadabra started sweeping all Pokemon from the Ecruteak gym, but sadly, the gym leader´s Gengar lived with a tiny bit of health and one-shot Kadabra with a Shadow Ball... Graveler then finished off Morty.

Team:
Graveler lvl 25
-Magnitude
-Rock Throw
-Headbutt
-Selfdestruct

Fearow lvl 23
-Peck
-Fury Attack
-Leer
-Growl

Edit: For the next part I rolled the Dex Holder challenge. I decided to do the exchanger's challenge, so I can keep Fearow and Quilava and train up the Tyrogue.

 

[Ahri]

Well, time for Take 2 of my challenge in Soul Silver after a shameful wipe out before.

Phase 4- Monotype

Badges

Spoiler:

I picked Cyndaquil as my starter this time around (still love you, Chikorita <3) and named it Hino. Did the beginning stuff, named rival Zed, obtained Pokeballs.
I caught Fruity the Hardy Hoothoot on Route 29, Pebble the Geodude on Route 46, Wild Zubat the Pidgey on Route 30 and Breaker the Weedle on Route 31. I used my trainer ID to get a Wooper Egg from Primo then decided not to catch anything on 32 since I had the Wooper Egg.
Hatched Derpy the Wooper, did the whole Belsprout tower thing, failed to catch anything at the tower. Took on the 1st Gym and it was super easy this time around. Obtained Rock Smash from the guy on whatever that route was then carried on towards Azalea. My 3 pokemon for the tri species bit of the challenge were Quillava, Geodude and Wooper.
I failed to catch anything in the Cave and in the Slowpoke Well.
I lost Fruity fairly early in a training session, Hino fell to Bugsy's Scyther. Togepi hatched in Azalea Town.
I sorted my team out for the naturelock bit of the challenge and started an intense training session to level Cadbury the Togepi, Wild Zubat the Pidgey and Breaker the Weedle right before Azalea Town.
Faced my Rival, entered Ilex forest, retrieved the 2 farfetch'd and caught Moonlight the Oddish. Accidentally taught both Derpy and Pebble Rock Smash. Taught Beedril Cut. Taught Togepi Headbutt. Accidentaly lost Beedrill right after the forest. Some time aftr that, as I was grinding my team on the trainers past Goldenrod, I lost Pidgey and Togepi as well. I got Kenya the Spearow from the guy north of Goldenrod. Evolved it and then gave it to that other guy after I beat Whitney. At some point on Route 34 I caught Creep, the Drowzee.
I battled Whitney using Moonlight and Pebbles and eventually won after some bs RNG. Got the SquirtBottle and caught Substitute, the Sudowoodo turning my Ground monotype into a rock monotype, using Geodude & Sudowoodo.
At some point I caught 6PunchBug the Ledyba via Headbutting trees in the national park and Exeggcute on Route 35(?).
Failed to catch anything on Route 37 as I fainted the Stantler that showed up.
Reached Ecruteak & saved.

[Janp]

I finally returned from my Holiday, so I can do some progress now. If I remember correctly, I was in Nuzlocke Phase, so I'll start my game today and play a little.

Nuzlocke Phase
- Right at the start, I should say that I was so bored of Nuzlockes lately, so I was just playing somehow...
- I randomly chose starter -> Torchic
- I beat Route 101, 103 and Forest encounters, because I didn't realized, that I should catch them
- I caught Route 102 encounter - Lotad
- Beat Roxanne without problems

Tri-Species Phase
- I caught Taillow o Route 116
- This part was kind of boring too, because I only used Taillow/Swellow which was something I would do anyway, even without "Tri-Species mode"
- Beat Brawly just with Taillow

Naturelocke Phase
- I didn't get good natures...
Combusken is Impish
Lombre is Impish
Swellow is Sassy
- I couldn't do anything with Impish and thanks to Sassy nature, Swellow could use only Wing Attack (nothing new)
- I caught Impish Sableye
- Saved right before Wattson
