2nd Gen GSC Word-Themed Team Challenge

Seeing as I've never tried a team challenge before, this one sounds like a good one to start with. I was actually quite lucky with the word that I generated:

Rival /ˈraɪvəl/ :
a person who is competing for the same object or goal as another, or who tries to equal or outdo another; competitor.

I've decided that I'm only going to use Pokemon that were owned by the rival of the original games, Blue (owned in either R/B/Y or G/S/C).
Can't wait to hear some updates, threads been sort of inactive a little bit lately :P

I'll update on this post later. Could of probably been to 8th gym by now but i dont feel like it lol

Well, I got through Ice Cave and did the Radio Tower mission. I don't know why the old man won't get out of my way, any tips? Do I need to catch Ho-Oh? I don't want to catch it if I don't have to.

@ Brendino: Welcome to this challenge. Yes, rival is a pretty lucky word, even though it doesn't leave you that much options.

@ Kbengal: Which old man? The one in front of Dragon's Den (the only one I ca think of now)? You have to beat Clair first.

@ jklm514: That is of course a good wordly wisdom, but... why here?

I finally got some time to play, I'm really busy lately, so don't expect daily updates.

Caught my Geodude, I'll beat Falkner and then I'll grind up for the Sprout tower, I expect a few complications there. Falkner should be easy if I don't get Mud-slap haxxed too much.
beat Falkner, he didn't get any chance to attack.
Sprout tower was udnerleveled and thus easy.

team:
Geodude lvl 16
Magnitude
Rock throw
Tackle
Defense Curl

oops, i didn't mean old man, i meant the guy in front of the gym
 
could someone generate me a word? I dont see a link on the original post
 
1.causing or involving great fear or suffering; dreadful; terrible: a dire calamity.

2.indicating trouble, disaster, misfortune, or the like: dire predictions about the stock market.

these 2 meanings could have things to do with pokemon but I cant think of any for either one
 
I'd say you could use Pokemon that people would be afraid of if they would really exist. Pokemon like Ariados, Golbat and Gyarados (Gyara even fits the other parts of the definition). And there are more.
 
alright well I guess totodile sticks with the scary pokemon theme so I can use that I guess the rest I'll get as i see em I really dont wanna go the tyranitar and ursaring route but ill probablly end up using one
 
Beat the 8th gym...and went to pokemon league...I accidently opened up something else and forgot to save. Pretty damn pissed right now. I'll get back to it tonight -.-
 
I think I'm changing my word. Using dark/ghost/nocturnal pokes is boring because you have a lot of simiarities in weaknesses and strengths. I'll post my new word later.

Edit:
New word: Gust. I'm going to use pokes that can either learn Gust or flying pokes.

First two words:

on "Average": I got Mitochondria. who goes with that? redo!
on "Common": I got Medical. Could only think of Chansey, so no...

really small update. I went from Violet city to Azalea. I was level 20 even before entering Azalea, so I guess I won't have any problems there. I also did the team rocket stuff already.

Team
Geodude lvl 21
Rock throw
Magnitude
Tackle
Selfdestruct
 
i got the word "ocean", only water pokemon for me then:

planned team
Feraligatr
Gyarados
Slowbro
Dewgong
Lanturn
Lapras
 
I got the word "ditch" so i'm thinking i'll use ground types since they can make big ditches and i'm doing the monotype challenge for ground anyways what a coincidence XD o ya and they're my favorite type!
 
I don't know if I should continue doing mine or start over with a new word...because this party is really boring, flying and ghost types aren't my style.
 
This looks pretty fun!

I did adjective and got acknowledged. I think I'm only going to use pokemon that are used by an elite four member or gym leader of one of the first two generations.
Planned team:
Pidgeot
Alakazam
Machamp
Gengar
Golem
Starmie
 
lol, why is this at the second page? XD

I found some time to beat the second gym. It was easy, but now I can't find a Pineco. Any ideas on why? Can I hack one into my game?

Team:
Graveler lvl 25
Rock Throw
Magnitude
Headbutt
Selfdestruct
 
May i have a word, please
