4th Gen D/P Monotype Challenge!

[Rokusasu]

........

I just beat Lucian. O____O;;;;;

Yay for having 100+ Hyper Potions and 80 Revives. XDDDD

Currently: Me vs. Cynthia

Just her Lucario left to KO. Currently playing: Let's see if you run out of PP before I run out of Hyper Potions/ Revives and pray you don't get a critical, as he has Psychic and Earthquake and Eight's Close Combat + Razor Claw (I switched items after battling Lucian for the second time) is my one shot at getting a KO. T_T;

Aaaand the risk I took worked! 8D Eight's Close Combat OHKO'd Lucario, which means that I beat the game. :3 With my team:

Eight, Infernape, lvl 56 @ Razor Claw
Close Combat
Grass Knot
Flamethrower
Aerial Ace

Ahnold, Machoke, lvl 51 @ Shell Bell
Low Kick
Rock Slide
Rock Smash
Cross Chop

Aste, Medicham, lvl 52 @ Lucky Incense (I needed something to re-stock with in case I got beaten again! XD)
Ice Punch
Calm Mind
Shadow Ball
Force Palm

Khamuun, Lucario, lvl 51 @ Adamant Orb
Iron Tail
Close Combat
Dragon Pulse
Swords Dance

Sticky, Toxicroak, lvl 51 @ Quick Claw
Dig
Dark Pulse
Revenge
Poison Jab

Eight and Aste were the Pokemon of the match, though I did have great fun using Sticky's Dry Skin against Milotic. XD Khamuun and Aste made a great tag-team when Garchomp was stupid enough to use Giga Impact. :3 Ahnold gets the wooden spoon award, for being completely useless for anything other than death fodder. XD

Well, that's me done now. :3 Time to get started on my Drifloon monospecies challenge! -salutes- Later guys!

[jayjayfish]

so can i join as the psychic gym or what ever please

 

[Logan]

Yeah just start whenever you want.

 

[Lady Gaga]

Hey, may i join? ill only start in like 20 days, but i woudl love to do the fighting challenge, with my final team something like this:

Infernape
Heracross
Medicham
Lucario

:)

 

[Logan]

Yeah you can join... but you probably won't end up with Heracross as we aren't allowed to trade if you get a fighting type early on (Chimchar - Monferno - Infernape).

EDIT: Oopsy, I didn't realise you could get Heracross pre-national dex. Sorry.

 

[ckret2]

This says D/P Monotype Challenge, but when Platinum comes out, I assume it'll be D/P/Pl Monotype Challenge? If so, I'll be doing Steel: starting out with Piplup (for Empoleon), and adding Trash Cloak Wormadam and Bronzor ASAP.

(Well, I'll be doing a Steel monotype in Platinum anyway. It'd just be nice to do it as part of the official challenge. :P)

 

[BrainDamage]

alrighty. another update

-surfed to canalave
-defeated rival nub
-trained on iron island

Alakazam 41
Medicham 40
Mr. Mime 38
Girafarig 38
Bronzong 39

*off topic* oh, and "thinking of a name" for the love of God, would you just choose a type and stick with it? you've spent the last two weeks changing your type, veering from the challenge, joining it again, and changing your type more. Frankly, it's ridiculous. Also, get rid of your signature; 1. the font is annoying, 2. no one cares, and 3. its a freaking pokemon, you're acting like your mother died or something. GET OVER IT

 

[Logan]

You need to hatch the Riolu egg to complete the Sinnoh Pokedex by the way.

 

[Lila]

You need to hatch the Riolu egg to complete the Sinnoh Pokedex by the way.

I don't mean to go off-topic here or nitpick, but that isn't true. There's a trainer with Riolu in the lower floor of Oreburgh Gate, and even if it is a little bit out of the way, there are two TM's there and a few items that are worth getting. :)

[Tinhead Bruce]

Ok, I finished like a week ago, but I forgot to update. My Abs (Alakazam) was lvl 80 when I beat Cynthia. BTW, I did a mom-poke challenge. Anyways, this was fun.

P.S: Yeah, as long as you go to every area and fight every trainer, you can complete the Sinnoh 'dex with a magikarp.

 

[monobi]

I will start psychic.
Abra will be obtained after i catch and trade a machop in the first town.

Am i allowed to use an emulator for this?

 

[(Dusty<3)]

I'll do Psychic as well.
:3
I'll get my Abra first in Oreburgh City
Final team:
Kadabra
Mr. Mime
Chimecho
Girafarig
Medicham/Bronzong

 

[BrainDamage]

another update:

arrived in snowpoint
defeated snowpoint gym with ease
arrived at lake acuity too late
flew to vielstone HQ
destroyed everyone inside with extreme ease
am currently about to scale Mt. Coronet

Alakazam: 46
Mr. Mime 41
Medicham 43
Bronzong 40
Girafarig 42

 

[dotKarma]

I think I'm going to start this and try Ghost. I already am near Oreburgh, but will trade the Gastly or Misdreavus over as soon as possible.

 

[ShaySkymin]

I might give Electric a try. Lemme just see...

Yep, a few can be found.

 

[dotKarma]

So here's what I've done so far:

Characters name is Morty (I hadn't even planned to do this when picking a name. He was just my favorite gym leader from g/s/c)
Rival's name is Chuck (yet again, another g/s/c gym leader)
Got chimchar as starter
reached all the way up until the cave leading to oreburgh before deciding to take this challenge
Traded a Drifloon egg over to the game, as it is near impossible to get a ghost type in Diamond before the 2nd gym leader
Reached Oreburgh after a lot of training

Drifloon: Level 11
moves: constrict, gust, astonish, and minimize

EDIT: I think I'm going to change to a flying type challenge. I'm going to keep Drifloon in my team, but I'm going to be getting a Starly soon.

 

[ckret2]

What, this thing hasn't been updated in two weeks? Does no one out there want to do a monotype challenge anymore or what? :/

This says D/P Monotype Challenge, but I'm assuming that with the release of Platinum, anyone doing a monotype challenge on Platinum will be accepted as well? (The last time I asked that question, nobody responded, either with a yes or no. Thanks.) I'm doing a Steel Monotype in Platinum, I started with Piplup for its evolution into Empoleon. Haven't reached the first gym yet.

 

[chaos11011]

i do but later XD im having to fun with my platnuim
