    [PokeCommunity.com] Love in the Clouds!


    Hey everyone, and welcome to Love in the Clouds, the Valentine's Day event! Get it...love in the clouds...cause it's Valentine's...and Swablu and Altaria...are like...CLOUDS okay. This challenge is heavily based on gender and quite a personal challenge. Put your hearts up and let's do this, shall we? Like most events prior to this, each party member has to meet a certain criteria or fill a specific role. And yes, you must use all six party members.


    ♥ The Present!
    Valentine's Day is a time to show the people you care that you, well, care! What better way to do that than by giving them a lovely gift! So yes, you must use a gift Pokemon as a team member. Starters count as gifts as well as eggs.

    ♥ The Valentine!
    This party member must be a favorite of your irl partner, your best friend, or your pair! If you don't have any of those or you do, but none are into Pokemon therefore not having a favorite, never fear! I'll be your valentine. :) This Pokemon must be happy all the time. Don't give it herbs and always let it hold something, so it knows you love it lots. And don't forget to match the gender with the person this Pokemon is inspired from! And name it their name as well! If you don't want to share their name when you update, that's fine. But name it their name anyway... ;)
    My favorites for each game:
    Spoiler:


    ♥ The Attraction!
    This Pokemon must learn Attract level up and be the same gender as you! If you're playing GSC or FRLG (which from what I've noticed, nothing learns it level up) you must teach Attract to a Pokemon of your gender. Even though it doesn't learn it level up, this still counts as a slot, so no, you're not exempt from using 6 Pokemon.

    ♥ The Duo!
    Misleading name, as you're not using two Pokemon, but rather, you are using a Pokemon that has a male or female counterpart. However, you must use the one that is of the sex you're attracted to. If you're bisexual, you can pick either. If you're asexual, you must pick a non-legendary genderless Pokemon, regardless of if it has a counterpart. Also, I made a small list to add more variety, as some counterpart Pokemon aren't all male or female. Here's a list of counterparts for this challenge (males on left, females on right):
    Spoiler:


    ♥ The Pink!
    Use a Pink Pokemon! Duh! But there's a catch.
    FRLG/GSC: As soon as it's on your team, it must lead (as in start off) all gym battles
    RSE/DPPt: Must win two Cute contests
    HGSS: Must win two Pokethlon events
    BW(2): Must win a Musical

    ♥ The Flower!
    This Pokemon must be based on a lovely flower! Because doesn't your date like them? Maybe not. Anyway, it must know two Grass moves, one of which should be Petal Dance if at all possible.
    Spoiler:


    Now for the rules!

    1. HM slaves are allowed!
    2. This challenge is for all main games except for RBY due to the necessity of genders.
    3. No trading or hacking is allowed, except for your valentine Pokemon. It should be that person's favorite and I want you to be able to use what they like.
    4. Emulators are most certainly allowed!
    5. Final updates are due by February 28th 11:59 Central (GMT -6).
    6. Challenge ends after defeating Blue (FRLG), Red(GSC/HGSS), Steven (RS), Wallace (E), Cynthia (DPPt), Ghetsis (BW), or Iris (BW2).

    From what I can tell, there are no pokemon with attract by level up in frlg either. So i assume I will get to use the tm. I'll post my chosen team when i get off from work later.

    I guess I'll be competeing

    Name: Honeyman
    Game: Platinum

    Since my computer hates DS games, I'll be playing on a hard copy, so no screenshot updates for you!
     
    I'm a bit confused on the Duo thing. So I can't use Glalie since it's a male counterpart, and I need to use females, right?

    Right. You might have to go with Illumise. I just thought of another to add to the list as well, which is Gorebyss is female only and Huntail is male only.

    Whoever asked about Attract in FRLG, yes forgot about that, but you do get the TM so just make sure you teach it to a Pokemon of your gender.

    I gotta get ready for school, so I'll have to add that in later as well as the sign ups. ahhh so tired :( I'll post my team when I get online in a few hours.
     
    Literally 15 minutes after i went to bed...you post this challenge...oh well

    Will post team later as I am posting this in school like a hooligan :P

    EDIT: question....do Victreebel or Exeggutor count as flowers? And Nidoqueen is a counterpart right?

    EDIT: question....do Victreebel or Exeggutor count as flowers? And Nidoqueen is a counterpart right?

    Sorry, Victreebel is a flytrap and Exggutor is a coconut tree. :( Not a flower. Venusaur is a flower though. And yes, Nidoqueen is definitely a counterpart Pokemon.

    Edit: I made a list of flower Pokemon, so that'll help. Would anyone like me to make a list of the counterparts? So far no one seems to have had any trouble picking them, but if you guys want a list, I will definitely make one.

    Now here's what I'll be using:

    Gift:
    [PokeCommunity.com] Love in the Clouds!

    There is no better gift in Ruby than the gift of a Torchic!

    Valentine:
    [PokeCommunity.com] Love in the Clouds!

    For this one, I chose my pair, Nick. One of his favorites is Alakazam. :)

    Attraction:
    [PokeCommunity.com] Love in the Clouds!

    It learns Attract, and what kind of Valentine's challenge would it be without a heart shaped Pokemon?

    Duo:
    [PokeCommunity.com] Love in the Clouds!

    Not a ton of duos in this game, so I went with Volbeat, as I like males and Volbeat is male. I've used it before and it's not too shabby.

    Pink:
    [PokeCommunity.com] Love in the Clouds!

    Wigglytuff is pink and cute and a total BOSS. This will be fun.

    Flower:
    [PokeCommunity.com] Love in the Clouds!

    It's pretty and flowery and I've always wanted to use one!

    SIGNING UP. YUP.

    Username: Leaf Storm
    Game: Silver

    I've ultimately decided to use Cyndaquil as my starter because quilzel's favorite pokemon is Typhlosion. Was going to use Meganium but well...it was hard to decide! xD Guess I'll be using Gloom or Sunkern!
     
    You should consider bellossom a female counterpart to vileplume. Not that I'm using either, but they do fit the bill.

    Edit: could I get a little clarification on what you mean by the pink leading gyn battles?

    Now that I finally can, I will participate!

    Name: BinaryPeaches

    Gift: Whatever comes from the Odd Egg
    [PokeCommunity.com] Love in the Clouds!

    Valentine: Sneasel ( Thom. A favorite of one of my pairs and the person I speak to the most online. ♥ )
    Attraction: Miltank ( Copying Whitney? lmao idk but why not )
    Duo: Nidoking (Not very many choices in GSC ... fact this one is like the only one )
    Pink: Corsola ( I've always wanted to use Corsola and now is my chance! )
    Flower: Sunflora ( I've used Meganium, Vileplume, and Bellossom before. And since I can't get Venusaur, Sunflora will make due )

    Corsola and Miltank may or may not swap places. Since I can get them around the same time I guess I'll figure it out around then.

    Planned Team:

    Infernape (gift)
    Rotom (valentine [forever alone])
    Lumineon (attract)
    Gardevoir (duo)
    Clefable (pink)
    Roserade (flower)

    Also, something concerning Rotom. It's genderless, so I can't have it be female.
