Combined Pokemon Solo Challenge Thread

Spoiler:

After leveling Tron up to level 20 I decided to try her gym again. I stock up on Potions and Super Potions (5 of each) and cave in and buy an 1 X Defense and 1 X Attack.

Starting off the battle I use both of the X items. After 3 Tail Whips and 4 Quick Attacks each both of her Geodude fall. Oddly enough neither of them used Defense Curl, go figure. Her Nosepass was a pain in the rear end. Just about every time I'd Tail Whip, it'd use Harden, seriously. After it getting healed by a Potion and an Oran Berry I managed to beat it. So yeah, my first badge has finally been obtained. 1/8.

I hate that gym and I'm not coming back til Tron knows at least Brick Break or something.

After all that excitement I go get Peeko and the Devon Goods back. Recieved the Letter and said Goods to go deliver, as well as the PokeNav and the Match Call. On my way out of town I took on Brendan. He falls rather easily. On a side note he has Torchic this go around, so type advantage for me.

In Dewford I take on Brawly's gym first. Nothing interesting happens and I get my second badge. 2/8. After I get Flash from the random hiker I teach it to Jasper and stumble my way through Dark Cave. Once the letter is delivered I stumble my way back out. On to Slateport.

In Slateport I take on everyone at the beach and nab the free Soda Pop (it might as well been free, it was so easy). Tron is now up to a level 25 at this point. After defeating two Team Aqua grunts the Goods are delivered. Also registered the resident stalker, Scott, into the Pokenav. Hooray I guess.

In a wasted trip back to Rustburo I pick up the Exp. Share and Repeat Ball. Heading north from Slateport I register Prof. Birch before entering the Trick House. The Rare Candy I get gets fed right to Tron after I get it. Up to level 29. After battling and looting to the west, I head east to battle Brendan again. Once beaten I get an item I probably won't use.

Most of the way to Mauville is spent being paralyzed cause I'm stingy and don't want to use any of my berrys. In an odd move I haven't bought anything since Rustburo so I've got no status healing things I want to use. Upon entering Mauville I get the bike and forget that I'm paralyzed. So I go fight Wally. His Ralts falls to a single Thunderbolt. The resident stalker also seemed to have watched the match.

Next time I update maybe I'll have gotten farther.

Since I never got an answer to this, I'll take it as a yes.

Not too much happened today, since I have a lot of homework and I've hit another roadblock.

- After a bit of training, Hydra learned Dragon Rush, so I decided to head back to the gym and try for the millionth time.

- With an incredible combination of Moomoo Milks, a critical hit, and a Dragon Rush, Hydra was able to 1HKO Excadrill!

- Collected my fifth Gym Badge and made my way to the Pokemon World Tournament.

- Easily swept through Darke and Cheren, but came to another roadblock with Colress. This guy uses only Steel types, and all my moves are ineffective against his Pokes.

- Colress wiped the floor with me thrice before I finally decided I needed some more training.

- Now that I have the fifth gym badge, gonna try and evolve Hydra before returning to the tournament to kick Colress's ass.

I don't want to be rude, because your the Challenge runner but in Emerald didn't the rules say you had to beat Steven In Meteor Falls, before you moved on

 

[TheCrystalFlaaffy]

I don't want to be rude, because your the Challenge runner but in Emerald didn't the rules say you had to beat Steven In Meteor Falls, before you moved on

I usually do beat Steven but for some reason when ever I beat the champion in Pokemon emerald it doesn't save after entering me in the Hall of Fame, and when I start the game back up it either doesn't give me the option to continue or I have to start back where I last saved.

This goes for everyone soloing on Pokemon Emerald, Steven is optional. The challenge ends when you defeat Wallace. I could've sworn I took that off a long time ago... Well I guess I didn't so I'll go do that now.

Sorry for the misunderstanding and thank you for pointing out my mistake so I can correct it. :)

Here's a solution to your little problem, James^^

If you're using Visual Boy Advanced, just set your Save Type to Automatic Flash 128k. That should allow in-game saving and for you to be able to start back in your room after E4 so you can do the post-E4 content. And it kinda prevents random save losses. And for the "Internal battery has run dry"error, just set your emulator to use real clock so you can still enjoy time-based events such as day/night evolutions.

[Xilfer]

Wow, that really sucks, James. Anyway, a lot's happened today, so hooray.

- During my training, went back to Pokestar Studios and filmed some movies. Even let Hydra be part of a couple.

- Finally managed to beat Colress in the World Tournament thing with a well-aimed, Work Up-boosted Dragon Rush at his Magneton, which was my main problem.

- Went through the whole Team Plasma thing on the boat, pretty much pwned everyone.

- Afterwards, I made my way out of Chargestone Cave and reached Mistralton City.

- Do a bit of training with the trainers in Celestial Tower.

- During the training, Hydra finally reaches LVL 50 and evolves into Zweilous! Huzzah!

- Proceeded to challenge the gym. Hydra, in her new Zweilous form, pretty much 1HKO's everything that the trainers and even the gym leader put before her.

- Make my way to Lentimas Town. I take a visit to the Haunted Mansion or whatever and get seriously spooked by the ghost girl...nah, I'm kidding. Obtain Lunar Wing.

- I get through Reversal Mountain, grinding a bit on the trainers in there, and get to Undella Town.

- After a totally one-sided battle with my rival, I go to Opelucid City to kill Drayden. Dragon-on-Dragon was really tough, but I managed to get through it with Hydra.

- Afterwards, though, I had a big problem with Zinzolin during the whole freezing Opelucid scenario. He kept using Ice-type Cryogonals that would kill Hydra with a couple of Ice Beams. With the help of a lucky critical hit, though, I managed to beat him.

- Am currently trying to find a HM Slave that can use Fly to get me out of here. I already caught one that knows Surf.

- Hydra is two levels away from evolving again, and is seriously over-leveled right now.

Rock pokemon, I might never use them after this challenge.

Wattsons Gym was easy up until his Magnetron. It kept paralyzing me and I had to Tail Whip it a few times to even do decent damage. After using up 5 Sodas and 4 Paralyze heals it finally went down. Wattson also used 2 Super Potions on it. Blah. 3/8 badges obtained.

Head north from Mauville I took on the Winstrate household. All in all it's easy and I obtain the Macho Brace. Upon going further I realize I have nothing that can learn Rock Smash. I refuse to teach Tron HM's. I then catch NomNom the Gulpin and teach it to him.

In Vandanturf Tunnel I meet a hiker with level 16 Geodudes. The first one proceeds to take down a level 35 Tron, awesome. Let's try again. After the second try the Hiker goes down a lot easier. Heading north from Mauville again, I do something time consuming and dumb. I run around to get ash for all the flutes. Never. Again. Not worth it. D:

Heading south from Fallarbor I decide it's time to train Tron some new moves. He learns Shockwave and Secret Power, in the hopes that rock types become less horrible. I also feed him a Carbos to maybe boost his attack stat just a little.

Nothing interesting happens in Meteor Falls besides meeting Team Aqua and Magma. I imagine these guys as just feuding siblings that too a fight waaay too far. On my way to Fallarbor I catch Derp Duck the Lotad. I'm slightly lost on where to go so this is where I'll end my small update.

Alright! Finished my run today!

- Made my way to Humilau City and decimated the gym. Hydra evolved for the third time into Hydreigon! Boo ya!

- Took the new Hydra to the Team Plasma ship. Went through the whole scenario and killed Zinzolin with no issue this time.

- However, I did have minor issues with our good friend Colress. Took me an extra try, but the second time I wiped the floor with him.

- Made my way to the Grand Chasm, where I pretty much killed Black Kyurem with one Dragon Rush.

- Ghetsis did prove to be a bit of a problem, though. He had a Hydreigon of his own that nearly 1HKO'd mine. After I killed his Hydreigon, though, the rest was easy.

- Team Plasma over and done with! Hoorah! Next stop, Victory Road.

- Got to Victory Road and took a couple of HM Slaves to get past it. Succeeded without a problem.

- The E4! Deposited my HM Slaves in the PC and went up to face them.

- Beat Caitlin and Shauntal easy with Crunch as the only move I actually used.

- Grimsley presented a bit of a problem, because his Bisharp totally walled me, and then tried to murder me with X-Scissor. Luckily managed to kill him with a critical-hit Dragon Pulse.

- The hardest was obviously Marshal. His fighting types were a big problem, especially since a lot of them could resist 1HKO's, but I equipped Hydra with Fly, and she was able to take out most of them. The biggest problem, however, was Conkeldurr. After my first Fly missed, he managed to hit me with a Bulk Up-boosted Hammer Arm that I barely survived. After a couple more times using Fly, I managed to kill him though.

- E4 Done and over with! Time for the Champion. Dragon-on-Dragon is going to be tough.

- Battle! The Champion sends out Hydreigon, which I gladly counter with Hydra. Poor old Hydreigon is 1HKO'd.

- Champion makes a comeback with Druddigon, which is killed as soon as it is released because of Hydra's Outrage still going on.

- Champion brings out Lapras. A lucky kill with the last Outrage 1HKO's it before Hydra gets confused.

- Champion brings out Archeops. First try at killing it, Hydra hits herself with a little bonus from Archeops, but second try, Archeops is killed with Crunch.

- Next up is Haxorus, my greatest threat. With a lucky break on the confusion, Hydra goes at Haxorus with Outrage. Oh noes! Haxorus has a Focus Sash, and is Full-restored the next go. Hydra's rampage is still going on though, and Haxorus is put down by the next hit.

- Last and definitely not least, Aggron. Aggron walls my Outrage, bringing it to an abrupt stop and causing more confusion! Nothing I have will even normally hit Aggron, but lucky for me, Aggron keeps using Automotize while I slowly kill it with not-very-effective moves.

- So, I win! I'm done! Hydra and I have decimated the Pokemon Gyms and obliterated the Unova League. Next stop, WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS!

Spoiler:

Took the Cable Car up to Mt. Chimney. It's easy going through the area. I kinda wonder why everyone has Poochyena though, even Archie. Universal Bad Guy Pokemon apparently. One of the Team Aqua says Team Magma is a weird name, which I thought was kinda funny.

Maxie goes down pretty easy, and just walks away afterwards. On my way to Lavaridge I encounter the awesome cookie lady. I take a bit and buy 30 of these things. They're cheaper than Full Heals and also yummier. In Lavaridge I also get an egg from the hot springs lady.

After taking a minute to navigate through the gym I encounter Flannery. The only thing to give me trouble is her Torkoal. It kills me in my first attempt, since I didn't use any thunder attacks on it thinking it was rock. My second attempt I try Thunderbolt and it goes down in one hit. 4/8 badges obtained.

Upon leaving Brendan gives me the Go-Goggles. A lot of trainers in the desert use Sandshrew apparently. Nothing really interesting happens otherwise besides me getting the Claw Fossil. From here I headed down to Slateport to take the boat to Petalburg. Time to take on Gym number 5. After making sure to make my way through all the rooms I take on Dad. All of his Pokemon are OHKO'd. Badge 5/8 obtained.

After beating him I get Surf. Yay! Taught this to Derp Duck. At this point I decide to go exploring. In New Bark I get the Amulet Coin for Tron. He's never taking this off. In Mauville I get the Basement key from Wattson. On my way to New Mauville I see the greatest sign ever. Nothing interesting happens in New Mauville otherwise. I get Thunderbolt from Wattson. Too bad Tron already knows this.

A few steps from Fallarbor the egg finally hatches. Smiley the Wynaut is shoved into the box in Fallarbor. Upon arriving back in Petalburg I Surf south towards Dewford. Healing up here I head east towards Slateport. I'm almost out of PP when I arrive, even after going through the Abandoned Ship.

Having done a complete circle I head east from Mauville to the new area of the map. Making my way across the small gap I head north towards Fortree. On my way up I catch Peant Butr and Jelly, both Tropius. Since I can't go further I rest up in the Weather Institute. Here I deposit Jasper and NomNom and take out Peant Butr. I teach her Rock Smash, Strength, and Cut while Derp Duck gets Flash. Upon defeating the Aqua Admin I also stick Bobble Head the Castform into the box before leaving.

Outside I fight Brendan again. He gives me Fly upon defeat, which gets taught to Peant Butr. Since I can't take on the Fortree Gym yet I bypass the city and just keep heading east. I get the Devon Scope from Steven and deposit my HM slaves before taking Gym. The whole gym is hilariously easy as I go through it. The only thing to even survive is Altaria. Who somehow had 1 HP left after my Thunderbolt. She survived 2 of them before falling to a 3rd. 6/8 badges obtained.

Tron the Bold Raichu
LV: 61 Ability: Static Item: Amulet Coin

Derp Duck the Lotad: LV 15 Surf / Growl / Flash / Nature Power

I was wondering if I could also switch my Sinnoh and Unova games. I'd like to make them Pearl and White if possible. I own both versions on my DS. Seeing as I'd rather not lose the Pokemon I have on either game I'll be playing them on an emulator instead.
