Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread

[Darkhelmet]

GOing to continue my Ultimate run, moving to Crystal, since my HeartGold emulator decided it doesnt like me, so I will begin tomorrow.

 

[Darkhelmet]

SOrry to double post, but I have a question.

If I did a solo run with Hitmonchan, would I have to start it as a Tyrogue? Or would I just be able to start it with a Hitmonchan? Only because Tyrogue isnt guaranteed to level into it.

 

[Raven Valt]

Seeing as Tyrogue is a baby pokemon I would say that to do a hitmonchan solo you wouldn't have to use Tyrogue.

Azurill solo is finished.

Due to problems with my emulator, I have to withdraw from my Venusaur challenge on B2. I'm still doing a Flygon SR in FireRed as soon as I breed a good-enough Trapinch.

Update #2: Golem - Sapphire
Still quite happy to use Golem, it's a really great Pokémon. I'm not doing another solo run on X quite yet, I felt like using a full team again and am doing a Normal Mono Type run of it, but the next one will probably be a solo (I think).

Okay I'm not going to finish my ultimate Nidoking and Gengar solo's so can you just change the parts I did do into singles. So that would be Nidoking on FR and HG, Gengar on Yellow. I just don't want to finish them cause after a certain point in every game it just becomes OHKO after OHKO and that gets kinda boring. The internet at my house wasn't working for a few days so I got incredibly bored so I did a Togepi solo on platinum.
Entire Log:

Spoiler:

I used a Randomizer to put Togepi in as a starter in place of Piplup. I did Pokegen in an everstone cause I didn't want this getting easy or me to mess up and have to replay parts.

-I didn't realize Togepi doesn't start with any offensive moves so I lost the first battle with out a choice then Jess (Rival) said it could have gone ether way what a load of Rapidash sh*t.
-Did some beginning stuff and made my way to Sandgem without getting into any wild battles. -Prof. Rowan said something stupid saying that Togepi has evolved.
-As I was leaving Prof. Rowan gave me a TM Return it was an attack so I used it as soon as Dawn shut up.
-Got to Jubalife and looked around for the TM for hidden power only to find out it was only there in D/P.
-Challenged Jess to a battle he spammed withdraw and it got very annoying while I let fate take control with Metronome.
-I beat Roark after a few tries, it had everything to do with luck with metronome and charming all his pokemon down while confusing them.
-Ran around for a while trying to max Pip's happiness cause Return is still doing nothing.
-Had to get lucky with metronome and get swords dance to beat Gardenia.
-Luckiness pulls through in the battle with Jupiter getting a HORN DRILL on the Skunktank.
-Beat Fantina by getting 3 boosts with ancient power then getting rock blast to hit 3 times using metronome.
-Scraped by Maylene by spamming super potions and charms and getting lucky that she stopped landing crits. If that didn't happen my only choice would have been to become an slave to the slot machine to get TM's.
-Finally got taught some new moves (Shock wave, Grass knot) to Pip and got rid of Return and and Charm(yeah that's right I still had that right up till Wake)
-Crasher Wake made me use some super potions but I'm expecting it at this point even thought Pip is lvl 51.
-Load of Team Galactic crap that is boring/repetitive.
-Took a trip to Fuego Ironworks to pick up flamethrower.
-Bryon's Bastiodon was a pain to get rid of.
-Left Candice's gym in hot water.
-Even more Galactic crap.
-Volkner almost had me at a few points but I managed to just win.
-Got to the Elite for and went hunting for Rare Candies to get to lvl 100.
-Arron was a cinch with Flamethrower/Shock wave.
-Bertha was handled entirely by Grass Knot.
-Flint was solo'd with antant power.
-Taught Pip shadow ball over Shockwave for Lucian
-Cynthia was just barely beaten

The computer I'm on right now wont allow me to upload the screen shots to photobucket so I guess I'm putting them in as attachments.

Finished my Mightyena solo run on Ruby! I am kinda happy that I went with Ruby instead of Emerald- This was kinda hard run .-. Shenzi was keep running out of PP on moves -but on the bright side she learn howl really early -and Howl helped out a lot!

Here comes the video of the battle against Steven - It was not as hard as I originally thought that it would be considering that he mainly has Rock type pokemon and that I am not all that much overleveled compared to him.

Spoiler:

And here is Shenzi at the end of the run:

Shenzi|Female|Impish Nature|Intimidate|Lvl 78|@Blackglasses
Shadow Ball
Howl
Crunch
Return​
