I haven't beat the League yet; but, I'm getting close. I think I should beat it the first time tonight. Hopefully.
+Went through the masion on the island and collected the gym key.
+Went to the gym and beat Blaine. He gave me a little bit of a problem; however, I beat him on the first try.
+Went to One, Two and Three islands and delivered the meteorite after finding the girl.
+Returned to Kanto and swam to Pallet town; battling trainers along the way.
+Went to Viridian and took on Giovanni. Beat him with ease using my Wigglytuff (water pulse and psychic worked wonders against his Pokemon)
+Went to the league and headed toward Victory road.

[giradialkia]

Yay- i'm done! Final update-
+I saved before the League, and went to face Lorelei.
+To be honest, i wasn't impressed with how long it took to beat her, so i turned off, and went to train.
+After a while, i'd grinded Pinsir to level 80.
+I went back and saved in front of the league again.
+This time, i downed all of Lorelei's Pokes with one hit..
+The only place i had problems was with Agatha- Pinsir's only move capable of hitting the ghost types is Rock Tomb. Nevertheless, i beat her.
+Lance did not take to Pinsirs attack stat very well, and each were killed with 2 strengths or less.
+Rival was pretty easy- i didn't know he'd get rid of Pidgeot! I killed.. His Heracross with Strength, his Tyranitar with Brick Break, his Venusaur with Strength and Earthquake, his Alakazam with Earthquake, his Gyarados with... Beedrill. Lol, Gyarados killed Pinsir with Hyper Beam, and was on very low HP. Sent out Beedrill and one Aerial Ace later... poof. (I cant remember what else was on his team but i beat it anyways.. Lol.)
Final Team:
Pinsir LVL 83
Butterfree LVL 53
Beedrill LVL 52
Heracross LVL 50
Parasect LVL 54
Venomoth LVL 32.
Phew.. That took longer than expected.
Giradialkia out..xD

 

[Ninja Tree]

Haha Pinsir. That's exactly what it looked like when I did. After first defeat of Elite Four I pretty much went all Pinsir.

It'll be slow for me; I usually don't have much free time to do Pokemon with. >.<

 

[BenjiTheKid]

Beat the Pokemon League the second time. ^^

I was gonna catch a Pokemon from the Islands... but decided I liked my party too much so didn't.

All my Pokemon are Lv 60-61. :]

And, I'd like to restart and do Water if that's okay?

 

[Wyyrlokk]

Well, I made a mistake. I´m sorry. Please don´t add me to the list yet. Probably I´ll do this later, but I have another prioirity just now. Sorry again.

 

[ktzqbp]

Hey guys, first time poster here but a player of Pokemon for yonks.

I'll sign up for Psychic on Leaf Green. Seeing as I've leant my GBA to a friend, I'll be using an emulator.

I'll keep you guys updated.

EDIT: OK, started off with a Bulbasaur. Soloed with it through to Cerulean.

Caught an Abra with Synchronize in Route 24. Had it out front for Route 25, and switched in Ivysaur to share XP. It evolved into a Kadabra after beating all the trainers there, with Ivysaur at 25. Ivysaur is now in the PC.

My current party:

KADABRA
1 - Confusion

Cheers.

EDIT2: Well, I thought Misty's Starmie was going to be a problem but I managed to kill it with Kadabra at level 23. Went into battle, did Reflect with Staryu out, Psybeam KO'd it, then Disabled Starmie's Water Pulse, then 3 Psybeams (with Starmie using Recovery inbetween) knocked it out :)

Kadabra's now at level 24, moving onto Vermilion City. Probably not going to catch a Drowzee there, but we'll see.

Kadabra's moveset: Psybeam, Reflect, Disable, Teleport.

Cheers

EDIT3: Beat the Vermilion Gym, now in Lavender Town. Both Kadabra and Mr.Mime are level 36 now, and because Mr.Mime is traded it isn't obeying me. Sucks.

EDIT4: Just beat the Saffron Gym, two more to go. Now on my way to Seafoam Islands.

Current Team:

SLOWBRO Lv43
EXEGGUTOR Lv45
JYNX Lv45
MR. MIME Lv45
KADABRA Lv45
Hm Slave (either Farfetched or Lapras)

The Saffron Gym was surprisingly easy. Jynx took down the first two, and half the HP of the third just using Ice Punch, and then Slowbro KO'd Alakazam with 2 Headbutts.

I'm also starting to realise that pure Psychic is pretty effortless. Besides Psychic itself, it's either effective or super effective against every other type. Not to mention that since two out of the five pokemon in my team are traded, they're really easy to level up (boosted XP bonus).

EDIT5: I beat the eighth gym with ease, thanks to Jynx (Ice is super effective against Ground). Now on my way to the elite four, currently in Victory Road.

Current team:
SLOWBRO Lv55
MR. MIME Lv56
JYNX Lv54
KADABRA Lv54
EXEGGUTOR Lv54

I'll post some screenshots while battling the E4.

Cheers.

EDIT6: Alright, done :)

This is being edited 1:35 PM UTC (GMT) time, so I managed to finish the challenge in under a day - 21 hours to be precise :)

Here are some screenies (I can't post links yet, so you'll have to do it yourself):

I realised that having Lapras (my HM slave) in the Hall Of Fame looked kinda sus - but I swear I never used it. Anyway, so the second time round I made sure I deposited all my HM slaves.

My moves:

Exeggutor
- Confusion
- Leech Seed
- Solarbeam
- Sleep Powder

Kadabra
- Psybeam
- Reflect
- Psychic
- Recover

Mr. Mime
- Psybeam
- Magical Leaf
- Safeguard
- Psychic

Slowbro
- Confusion
- Psychic
- Psych Up
- Headbutt

Jynx
- Powder Snow
- Ice Punch
- Body Slam
- Lovely Kiss

Obviously, the Ghost and Fighting elites were push overs, and Jynx pretty much sweeped the Dragon. The Ice one wasn't too hard because of the low levels. And again, Jynx sweeped my Rival's Pidgeot, Rhydon and Exeggutor.

For someone looking to try this challenge, I'd recommend you try a harder type :/ Psychic was wayyyy too easy.
