Update for USC #3.

Final Update (#3) on Crystal.
  • Took the SS Aqua to Kanto, and proceeded to beat Surge. He was annoying because Magneton paralyzed Excalibur with Zap Cannon then Surge kept Double Teaming.
  • Sabrina (Hidden Power) and Erika (Wing Attack) were easy victories as well.
  • Next I fixed the Power Plant, then Excalibur beat Misty with Wing Attack (Hidden Power for Starmie).
  • Got the Expn Card in Lavender Town and killed Snorlax, then got to Pewter City, where I crushed Brock with Swords Dance + Hidden Power.
  • Defeated Mordred in Mt. Moon easily, then went down to Pallet Town and Surfed to Cinnabar Island.
  • Talked to Blue, then surfed to the Seafoam Islands and beat Blaine.
  • Continued Surfing to Fuchsia City and easily defeated Janine with Wing Attack.
  • Flew up to Indigo Plateau and defeated Mordred for the final time. He has the Champion/Red battle music this time, it's creepy.
  • Back in Viridian City, I beat Cal in the Trainer House, then took on Blue for my final badge. After a Swords Dance (Pidgeot used Mirror Move), Excalibur swept with Wing Attack and Hidden Power.
  • Finally, it was time to face off against Red. I used my Rare Candies and got Excalibur to L87, gave him a Leftovers, then climbed Mt. Sliver.
  • You can watch the video of the battle here.

I decided to restart my ultimate solo run with Typhlosion (after so long) and do a new ultimate solo run with Smeargle. Sounds good? Okay.

I'd started with Fire Red and here's my progress.

I started the game with Squirtle as my starter and delivered the parcel to Oak.

I hacked in Smeargle and allowed him to sketch Squirtle's Bubble (I needed something to combat Rock types and it was either Ember or Leech Seed).

Grinded Origin the Smeargle to Level 11 to learn another Sketch.

Sketched a wild Mankey's Scratch (Strongest Normal move with base power 40)

Defeated Gary and Brock with a few Potions.

Currently at Mt. Moon.

Gotta love it when two DS's and 2 GBAs are either dead or have less than an hour's worth of power. I guess I won't be playing Pokemon today, lol.
 
Update for USC #3.

Started Emerald.

Name: Arthur
Starter: Treeko
  • Hacked in a Scyther egg that knew Silver Wind (egg move) so I could stand a chance against Roxanne, named him Excalibur.

    [PokeCommunity.com] Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread


  • Beat May, got the Pokedex, and we started on our journey.

    [PokeCommunity.com] Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread


  • Eventually arrived in Rustboro City and continued up north to train some more.
  • Excalibur was at L16 when I faced Roxanne. Thanks to an X Defend, an X Attack (Pickup ftw), a boost from Silver Wind, and a few Super Potions, Excalibur pulled through with Silver Wind and Pursuit. Rock Tomb's speed drop was so annoying - Nosepass was outspeeding Excalibur at the end.

    [PokeCommunity.com] Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread


  • After rescuing Peeko and the Devon Goods, I took on May again.
  • Excalibur barely survived with 1 HP. He grew a level, so the pic shows 4 HP.

    [PokeCommunity.com] Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread


  • Mr. Briney gave me a lift to Dewford Town, and I delivered the letter to Steven, then took on Brawly.
  • He was easy, Quick Attack spam won the fight.

  • Went to Slateport City, taught Excalibur Steel Wing, then saved on the beach.

Next Update on Pokemon Shiny Gold X Teddiursa/Ursaring Run:

  • Defeated Team Rocket in the Slowpoke Cave
  • Beat Rival then did the stupid Farfetch'd event and obtained Cut.
  • Defeated Azalea Gym and Carlos, If Teddiursa hadn't of learned Faint Attack it would have been hell.
  • Went through the forest thing, beat more trainers, and got to GoldenRod City.
  • Beat the underground place and bought some more items, including Ice Punch.
  • Pwned Whitney's Gym and got the Squirtbottle.
  • Teddiursa Evolved into Ursaring...
    [PokeCommunity.com] Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread
  • Went onto the next route, beat some more trainers, even more trainers, got the Treecko from that lady and then squirted Sudowoodo with the bottle.
  • Beat even more trainers then got to Ecruteak city.
  • Saved at Ecruteak City.

Update #2 on Emerald.

  • Delivered the Devon Goods, then headed to Mauville. Excalibur learned Wing Attack just in time for May.

    [PokeCommunity.com] Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread


  • After beating all the trainers around Mauville, I took on the gym. It was easier then I thought to beat Wattson, overleveled as Excalibur was.

  • Taught Rock Smash to Treeko and headed north.
  • Cruised through Fallarbor Town to the Meteor Falls where Team Magma was causing trouble.
  • At this time, I got the Hidden Power TM and tested it...GROUND! My luck is staying with me - no need for Steel Wing now!
  • Climbed Mt. Chimney and defeated Maxie for the Metorite.

    [PokeCommunity.com] Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread


  • Hopped down to Lavaridge, where I destroyed Flannery with Hidden Power Ground.

  • Caught a ride with Mr. Briney back to Petalburg to face Norman, my dad.
  • I actually lost the first time - got Countered by Slaking. Second time I Swords Danced instead, then OHKOed with Silver Wind.

Ultimate Solo Challenge Update #2 with Weedle

Well yesterday and the day before I continued my run. I finally got Weedle strong enough to beat all the trainers in Viridian forest, then went to Brock's gym. I beat the trainer before Brock, then challenged Brock himself. Right now I can beat Geodude, but Onix is too powerful with his Rock Tomb that hits every time, so I'll have to level Weedle up more (right now he's level 13).
 
Ultimate Solo Challenge Update #3 with Weedle

Today I got a lot of playing done on the game. Here's how it went:

I managed to beat Brock without even leveling up since the last update. I had to poison his Onix, and then use Potions every time he used Rock Tomb to stay alive until the Poison finished him off. It was a really epic battle.
After beating Brock, I continued on and beat all but one of the trainers on Route 3. I also went and sold items like TMs that I wouldn't be able to use.
I then entered Mt. Moon, beat all the trainers in there (except one that had a steel-type), and got the Dome Fossil. The super nerd at the end was ridiculous, he had two poison-types, and his Grimer had both Harden and Disable. I got lucky, he missed with Disable 3 times. When I finished I only had 1 PP left for Poison Sting, I'm really looking forward to getting some PP Ups.
Then I entered Cerulean, and that's pretty much where I stopped for the day.

It doesn't look like much, but those things took a really long time since I only had a Weedle. Even though I'm only in Cerulean, my file has around 6 and a half hours on it. Also, I took a screenshot of me beating Brock (and another with Weedle's stats after the battle), but I didn't bother to upload them yet. I'll do so in a future update. Weedle is level 22 now, which is 9 higher than the last update.

Ultimate Solo Challenge Update #4 with Weedle

-I went and faced Misty and got owned by Starmie, so I decided to leave that for later.
-Beat the rival, and everyone on the Nugget Bridge, sold the nugget and some TMs.
-Beat all but one of the trainers by Bill's house, and rescued him. Wow do I ever hate Nidoran-female.
-I noticed that the police officer moved, so I continued on to Vermillion without beating Misty (Idk why I wrote two badges in my sig on the last update, that's wrong).
-I entered the S.S. Anne and beat some of the trainers, and that's where I ended for the day. Weedle is now level 30.

Ultimate Solo Challenge Update #5 with Weedle

Today went well I'd say.

-I went and beat all the trainers in the S.S. Anne
-Got Cut, and left the boat
-Went back to Cerulean and finally beat Misty. Staryu's Recover is annoying.
-Went to Vermillion and beat Surge, who was WAY easier than Misty. Works for me.
-Went and beat all but one of the trainers on the path east of Cerulean, and entered Rock Tunnel. That's where I ended for the day, Weedle is level 37.

Well I've got a semi-update here, which is why there's no title. I've been taking screenshots throughout the game, and I just now uploaded them to my computer, so here they are. From here on I'll be uploading screenshots whenever I beat my rival, a gym leader, or someone else important (like the team rocket leader or something) in the correct updates. Also, sorry for the bad quality, I do a lot of my gameplay at school or on the bus, with an actual GBA, so I have to take pictures with my phone's camera.

EDIT: I have them as direct links and not image tags because for whatever reason the pictures are huge, and would make my post multiple screens tall.
