2nd Gen G/S/C monotype challenge

I think imma use Fire type Pokemon! We can Do it!!!
 
I finally beat Whitney and arrived in Ecruteak City. Whitney was really tough because of her Miltank, but Grounder hung on with the last of his HP and defeated him with Double Kick. Now Im looking for a Moon Stone to evolve Grounder and waiting till it gets dark to catch a Gastly at the Burned Tower.

Any of you guys remember where to get a Moon Stone in Silver near Ecruteak?
 
When you get surf you can get one in the cave between Johto and Kanto. You get Surf when you beat the Eevee Komino Sisters.

Ok tnx a lot man. Now imma beat the Kimono Girls and get Surf. Then ill go back to New Bark and Ill get it.

EDIT: Got the moon stone, evolved Grounder, caught Tentacruel (Stinger), taughtn him Surf and taught grounder Strength, saved at Cianwood so to beat Chuck and to get the meds for Jasmine and Amphy

Ill post my team after i beat Chuck

Make sure you have the badge that lets you surf. I forget which one it is.

Anyway I've just beat Jasmine and am heading back to the Radio Tower. Here's my current squad:

Xatu Lv.28
Fly
Peck
Night Shade
Teleport

Kadabra Lv.32
Psybeam
Future Sight
Fire Punch
Recover

Hypno Lv.29
Confusion
Hypnosis
Thunderpunch
Headbutt

Slowpoke Lv.29
Surf
Confusion
Headbutt
Dig

Espeon Lv.32
Bite
Quick Attack
Iron Tail
Sand-Attack

Eevee evolved with about 10 minutes before it turned to night. Thank god otherwise I'd have had to have waited until tomorrow.
 
The badge that enables Surf is the Ecruteak Gym Badge.

Update time.

I made easy work of Morty and Jasmine. Chuck was a bit hard, but not strong enough to beat my team. Now I kicked the Rockets out of Mahogany and Im about to challenge Pryce.

Who should I teach Sludge bomb to, Tentacruel or Golbat?

Anyway, heres my team

Dracula - Golbat - Lv 26
Leech Life
Confuse Ray
Supersonic
Bite

Grounder - Nidoking - Lv 28
Leer
Strength
Ice Punch
Double Kick

Stinger - Tentacruel - Lv 26
Bubblebeam
Acid
Supersonic
Surf

Razor - Weepinbell - Lv 26
Vine Whip
Growth
Cut
Acid

Driller - Beedrill - Lv 27
Twineedle
Rage
String Shot
Poison Sting


 
Golbat doesn't learn any poison moves, so I suggest him. Besides as Poison/Flying it really needs to make the most of it's type.

Tentacruel on the other hand is Water/Poison, so can be useful for other types. Ideally Tentacruel could know Surf, Blizzard, Acid and Barrier.

Who will be your sixth party member? And who do you plan to teach Toxic to?

Okay I'm training to face the Elite Four right now, but my squad is so understrengthed and I have little money to buy Full Restores and Revives. Here it is right now:

Exeggcute Lv.30
Solarbeam
Hypnosis
Confusion
Reflect

Slowpoke Lv.35
Surf
Confusion
Rain Dance
Earthquake

Xatu Lv.35
Fly
Future Sight
Night Shade
Teleport

Kadabra Lv.37
Psybeam
Future Sight
Thunderpunch
Recover

Jynx Lv.37
Ice Punch
Powdersnow
Lovely Kiss
Lick

Espson Lv.39
Iron Tail
Quick Attack
Bite
Psybeam

I plan to raise them until they learn top moves such as Psychic etc. I'll teach Fire Punch to oe of them when I can afford to buy it.

wooooo, i beat the elite four! it was actually kind of sad. i only had to use 1 ether because everything was a one or two hit kill. and then lance was a jerk with his blizzards and thunders and rock slides. but it was ok, only had to use 11 revives and 15 hyper potions

elite four team:

"image removed" Yegdip lvl 55
Wing Attack
Mud-Slap
Fly
Quick Attack

"image removed" Rehtycs lvl 52
Wing Attack
Swords Dance
Double Team
Slash

Interesting. I'm worried about facing Karen's Houndoom. I need Slowpoke to take command immediately, but he's so slow.
 
The 6th party member is Casper (Haunter), which I caught last night. I trained it at Pryce's Gym (God bless Exp Share) and in some grassy areas. It eventually evolved (it was a Gastly). I beat Pryce with ease, although he KOd two of my pokemon. But now Im about to save Goldenrod from Team Rocket. Then Im going to grind till Dracula is happy enough to evolve and till my party is around lv 35 more or less.

Ill post my team after the Rockets are gone once and for all and Im the hero =D
 
I just started My game today, I've beaten Falkner,Bugsy,Whitney and Morty (4 badges) I'm getting ready to capture a water pokmon (hm slave) so i can get to CIanwood City.

Time gor an update.

Im training my team to level 35-40 so to beat Clair more easily. Also, I need some TMs to teach to Casper, as his specialty is SP ATTACK and SPEED, and I dont have TMs with moves like Thunderbolt, Psychic, Giga Drain and so on. If he could learn the Punches (Ice Punch, Thunderpunch or Fire Punch) this would be a different story.

Anyway Dracula evolved while rescuing the Director in the Underground Warehouse, and he's ready to be taught Sludge Bomb!

I'll take this challenge in ground, please. Haven't figured out what version yet, going to use an emulator.

My team I'll try to get:

Donphan
Sandslash
Graveler (I guess lul, maybe an onix/steelix)
Quagsire
Gligar?
Nidoking/Queen

I'll figure it out along the way ;)

nvm, decided to go w/ silver, no gligar for me ;)

Also: how do I go about getting a phanpy on route 45?

there's some grass on route 45, so you could probably find one there in the morning. but in crystal you can find one on route 46 really early in the game
 
This looks like a ton of fun. :D

Tony Montana's making poison sound like a ton of fun so I think I'm going to try that out. Either that or Fire... Normal could be fun too... Maybe even Bug... Or perhaps Water. Actually, I need to think. I'll update later when I start. I'll be using my Gold Version for this.

For my reference (planned final teams):
If Poison is picked, planned team: Crobat | Gengar | Tentacruel | Weezing | Vileplume | Nidoqueen
If Fire is picked, planned team: Typhlosion | Arcanine | Houndoom | Magmar | Macargo | Flareon
If Normal is picked, planned team: Snorlax | Pidgeot | Furret | Ursaring | Raticate | Miltank
If Bug is picked, planned team: Heracross | Forretress | Scizor | Parasect | Beedrill | Ledian (Going to trade in from Silver)
If Water is picked, planned team: Feraligatr | Tentacruel | Starmie | Vaporeon | Kingdra | Lanturn

So there's no way I could get one early on in silver? :(

UPDATE

I beat Falkner, he was actually pretty hard. I put in Onix to take all the hits, all 10 of those mud slaps (with potions, of course) and put in geodude, FINALLY beating Falner. I decided to skip the bellsprout tower for now, rock/ground pokemon vs a grass type isnt a good match, idc what you say lol.

I also saved the slowpoke, and beat Bugsy fairly easily. (rock throw owns)

Wooper Lvl. 15
Water Gun
Tail Whip
Slam
--

Onix (Rocky) Lvl. 15 (This nerd hasn't obeyed me, maybe it will now lol)
Tackle
Screech
Bind
Rock Throw

Geodude Lvl. 16
Tackle
Defense Curl
Rock Throw
Magnitude

I just need a dang phanpy ffs.

Any other suggestions for my team?

Btw: currently training for my Rival, Silver. I should of chosen a different starter lol. (he has a bayleef, ffs)

lol I tried beating him, trained all up to lvl 18, bayleef OHKO'd me all of em, so I need a phanpy to potentially survive

EDIT again: FINALLY beat Silver. Trained Geodude to 23, Wooper (now quagsire) to 22, and onix to 20. I taught quagsire mud slap, mud slapped the crap out of bayleef (like 5 times, lol) came in with geodude and used selfdestruct because razor leaf missed, then onix finished off zubat with a rock throw, after about 7 battles lol.

ANOTHER update: Got through Ilex Forest, went on to Whitney and beat her pretty easily, just used selfdestruct on miltank, didn't feel like dealing with milk drink <_< I'll update after someone posts w/ my team and stuff, :P
