3rd Gen Monotype Challenge - Kanto

Status
Not open for further replies.
Could someone tell that on a Ground run can I use Tyranitar? Firstly, we get it as a Larvitar, which is part-Rock part-Ground. Then, Pupitar is also same as Larvitar. After evolving, Pupitar turns into Tyranitar, which is part-Rock part-Dark.. Also can Golbat evolve into Crobat by happiness in FireRed? I have kept it as a race between Ground, Poison and Water. Please answer.

Golbat cannot evolve into Crobat until you get the National Dex. D:
 
Can Johto pokemon be obtained after National Dex only? I thought Hoenn pokes can be found after it and Johto before.. And what about Tyranitar?
EDIT: Tyranitar is Johto too.. I'll do Flying and Water both...... It would be an ultimate challenge and I will do it on different games like Flying on FR and Water on LG.

-Some Old Man showed me how to catch a Pokémon (did he not notice that I had a Pokémon other than my starter?) and gave me a TV. That was nice.
