Ill do fighting on Gold

But seeing how you can't really get any fighting types before Mt. Moatar can I wait till then till catch my pokes or do I have to do it before Ilex forest because the only ones you can get before ilex are Heracross and its his secondary type? I am fine fine with having a team of heracrosses but that really wouldn't be a fighting team :

I started a game/team despite not hearing back from anyone Ill post updates when I hear back :D
 
What about the Machop(Muscle) in the Goldenrod Dept. Store? (Trade a Drowzee for the guy's Machop.)
In crystal it's an abra for a machop, but the point is he's right. There is a machop in the Goldenrod 5th floor.
 
Small update:

-Got to Goldenrod
-Caught a Scyther
-Need to train, lost like 6 times to Whitney, Got her miltank in red, then it just uses milk drink Ugh it is so annoying

-Pidgeotto Lvl. 21 Tackle Gust Sand-Attack Quick Atk.
-Noctowl Lvl. 20 Peck Swift Flash Hypnosis
-Scyther Lvl. 14 Quick Attack Pursuit Leer
-Zubat Lvl. 18 Leech Life Supersonic Bite

Kind of a small update since I haven't had much time to play due to the holidays. I figured I'd add some details on my team right now, since this was a lame update. Spoiler tags are there just for people who don't feel like looking. :3

12/26 Update #5

- Continued training my team.
- Made it to Olivine, battling everyone on the way.
- Got the Strength HM from the sailor and saved at the Pokemon Center.

Team so far:
Spoiler:

Next, I'll be taking on the lighthouse, then moving on to face Chuck.
 
Update 5: 12/27/08

Kanto
-Beat all of the gym leaders.
-Trained my team up to Level 65 - 69. (Varied levels)

Before Red
-Defeated the Elite 4 several times to get more money.
-Stocked up on Full Restores and Revives.

Red Battle
This battle was very annoying. Pikachu wasn't a big of a deal. Espeon, on the other hand, was a pain. Gengar's Shadowball didn't KO Espeon, so Psychic killed me. I switched to Crobat and used Bite to finish Espeon off. Snorlax was next. I revived Gengar and switched to him. Gengar used Hypnosis on him and since I'm part Ghost type, Snore didn't hit me. I used the Dream Eater combo, but as soon Snorlax wakes up, he uses Rest. I did this combo until I ran out of Dream Eater's PP. I switched to Nidoking, who finished Snorlax off with a few EQ's. Blastoise was sent out, Nidoking's Thunderpunch fainted it after a couple of hits. Venusaur was just 3HKO'd with Venomoth's Psychic. Charizard was 3HKO'd with Tentacruel's Surf.

I wasted money on my Full Restores and Revives because I only used 2-3 of them?

Ok, I beat Morty VERY easily, piece of cake with confuse ray + bite.

Team is the same, except Scyther is lvl. 18 now and zubat is a golbat at level 24 now, expecting it to evolve to crobat around maybe 30?

I'm looking forward to Chuck, but right after that is 2 magnemites and a steelix :(

Thanks, KadabraK, good luck completing your challenge too.

Crobat's going to really help your team a lot like mine.

This is going to be my only update until Monday or Tuesday, since I won't be home, and I won't have time to play while I'm away.
