3rd Gen Fire Red & Leaf Green Monotype Challenge

Right...
UPDATE:

It's been a while since I played and since I updated too. I can't post everything in the exact order I did it, but you know how the game goes so nvm XD

I went through Mt. Moon and got to Cerulean, beat Rival and now I'm training my party to the north of Cerulean, going to Bill, before going to take on Misty. They're pretty low-leveled compared to many of the teams posted in this challenge at this point... maybe I'm lazy? ._. No advanced movesets yet either, of course.

TEAM: (green sprites, lol)

oh could i start water monotype challenge on Fire Red

I'm still toiling over whether or not to do Poison or Bug. Currently training Weedle and Bulbasaur, so the option remains open.

Poison it is then. I was trying to get through Viridian Forest, using Bulbasaur to help train up my bugs. Weedle vs. Metapod battles take too long.
 
ok, so i finally started:

-picked squirtle
-did all the beginning stuff and beat brock with squirtle
-caught a male nidoran (named Kaiser!)
-went through mt. moon where Kaiser! evolved
-made it to cerulean and evolved Kaiser! again with a moon stone
-beat all the trainers on nugget bridge and that route near bill's house
-received the s.s. ticket from bill
-thrashed the hell out of misty (literally)
-went to vermilion and caught a diglett (named DigDug)
-entered the s.s. anne and DigDug evolved at some point

Team:

*pokemonelite2000 image removed* Kaiser! lvl 29
Horn Attack
Thrash
Poison Sting
Double Kick

*pokemonelite2000 image removed* DigDug lvl 27
Fury Swipes
Magnitude
Dig
Growl
 
Mkay again...

UPDATOE~

I got past all the trainers to the north of Cerulean, beating everyone of them of course, trying to train Pidgeotto and Butterfree as much as possible since Charmeleon would be lame against Misty. And Zubat wasn't really enjoyable to fight with at this point... Bite, huh. No good on Zubie.

I met Bill and got the SS Anne ticket. Then Misty got beaten by the awesomeness of Butterfree... though I think Butterfree fainted when Starmies HP was very red, and Charmeleon came out and finished it all XD Talk about stealing the show.

Went down towards Vermilion, catching a male Meowth along the road. Beat all the trainers, trying to make Charmeleon grow further, seeing as he was the only of my pokémon not yet weak to Lt. Surge's pokémon :x I also caught a male Magikarp...

Got on SS Anne and beat everyone there, including Rival without much trouble at all. I didn't know there was a bed functioning as a PokéCenter onboard in the Advanced version of Kanto games XDD Got the CUT HM.

Got out, beat Lt. Surge's Magnemite (I think?) and Pikachu with Butterfree actually (sleep powder is your friend) and the Charmeleon got to finish the Double-Teaming annoyance that was Raichu. Then I went through Diglett's Cave and got the FLASH HM.

Currently I'm beating all the trainers around Vermilion, trying to train Magikarp to Lv. 20 when I thiiiink it will evolve into Gyarados (Water/Flying, HAH) I'll probably go towards Rock Tunnel before that though. Since Magikarp is... pretty... slow on the grow...

Lol man, it's easy as ABC.

You don't try to level bug pokemon in a bug-populated area (i.e. Viridian Forest) - Bug is weak against bug remember?

Just do it in Route 22, or Route 2 if you're scared of an occasional Peck from the Spearows in 22.

That's pointless anyway as neither of the bugs in Viridian Forest learn a bug move until they evolve into their final forms.

Anyway, I re-started on a bug run. I chose Squirtle to start with so my rival would choose Bulbasaur (weak to Butterfree/Venomoth). So far I've just exited the SS Anne. Here is my current squad:

Butterfree Lv.25
Bold; Compoundeyes
Confusion
Poisonpowder
Sleep Powder
Supersonic

Paras Lv.23
Hasty; Effect Spore
Bullet Seed
Scratch
Poisonpowder
Dig

Beedrill Lv.19
Docile; Swarm
Fury Attack
Focus Energy
Harden
Poison Sting

I plan to get a Scyther as soon as I reach Celadon. Brock was a real problem for me at the start, he took ages to beat. Misty was a piece of cake thanks to Paras. Beedrill is really rubbish.
 
I'd like to start one i never finished my rock mono due to a game crash but id like to start another it doesnt matter just whatever is open except normal or rock hardest thing ever unless your a massive exp gainer...lol..

I'd like to do poison and will probly start tonight nothing else to do lol.

First water update!

Right now, my team kinda... sucks. All it consists of is Wartortle and Magikarp. In my defence; the next water Pokemon isn't avaliable for a while! But, I'm getting by. My Wartortle is like... insanely highly leveled for the beginning of the game, though. Anyway, here's the update:

+Restarted the game.
+Picked the starter Pokemon, Squirtle.
+Delivered Oak's parcel.
+Caught a few Pokemon to fill the Pokedex and dropped them in the PC.
+Trained Squirtle to Lv 12.
+Headed toward Viridian forest.
+Got through it with ease training Squirtle to Lv 14.
+Went to Pewter and beat Brock with no problem; training Squirtle to Lv 16 and evolving him.
+Headed toward Mt. Moon, battling the trainers along the way and training Wartortle to Lv 20.
+Went through Mt. Moon, training Wartortle to Lv 24 and catching Pokemon to fill my PokeDex.
+Got to Cerulean and took on Misty; beating her with ease and training Wartortle to Lv 25.
+Beat rival (who I named Grass) and trained Wartortle to Lv 27.
+Went to Bill's; battling the trainers along the way.
+Went to Vermilion and collected my Old Rod.
+Caught a Magikarp.
+Battled all the trainers along Vermilion; training Wartortle to Lv 32 and Magikarp to Lv 15. I am now about to enter the SS Anne.
