Still grinding... 4/5 of my guys are at level ~50... I'm getting sick of this grinding business. Well, as I said quite a while ago, I'm only going to update on weekdays, so see everyone on Monday. :P

And, oooh, userbars. I wouldn't mind one. Once I become the Fighting Champion, that is.
 
- The only damn thing I've done is grind that stinkin' Piloswine to level 33 so it would evolve.
- About to take out the Blackthorn City Gym (hopefully)

Okay. I'll get started tonight, provided I have enough time, and I should be finished by Sunday, Monday at the latest.

a) Your font is really hard to read lol
b) Just an idea, for the Ground type userbar, how about Diglett, Quagsire, Golem?
 
^Once you evolve it into Mamoswine, say hello to your new powerhouse.

Alright, we'll talk about it tomorrow then. I'm kinda busy tonight.

Replace Flounder??? NEVERRR! Haa, I've never used a Mamoswine, so I guess we'll see how it goes d:

Yeah, I know my font is hard to read. I use it because I want to squeeze as much text into a small amount of space as possible. As for the Ground-type Userbar, I was actually thinking Swinub, Pupitar, and then Flygon. I think I'll substitute Flygon for Golem though, since it's rather difficult to get a Trapinch in HG/SS (pre-Kanto at least).
 
^I liked the idea of first stage, then 2nd evolution, and then final stage.

You should have kept ice shard on it....you'll be OHKO lots of dragons with a mamoswine like that.

And yeah, Mamoswine has the 2nd strongest Earthquake in all the games (non uber).

I plan on keeping Ice Shard lol, it's helping me destroy Claire.

Oh wow, I'll defiantly evolve it then!

UPDATE:
-Currently battling Claire, thought I'd elaborate on the battle.

Round One: Nidoking vs. Gyarados
- Gyara Intimidates, that's ok wasn't planning on using Nido for much anyway
- Lay down two layers of Toxic Spikes (I LOVE THAT MOVE) while Gyara attacks with Dragon Rage, I attack with Horn Attack which does almost nothing before Nido faints

Round Two: Golem vs. Gyara
- Send out Golem, Rock Throw once, get down to red health, Claire Hyper Potions
- Gyara Dragon Rage's again, I Rock Throw twice, knocking out Gyara
- Claire sends out Kingdra, I switch in for Quagsire

Round Three: Quagsire vs. Kingdra
- Kingdra is poisoned, I start Amnesia'ing
- He starts Dragon Pulsing me, it does nothing
- I start hitting it with Surf, I get a Crit and he dies of Poison
- Claire sends in Dragonair #1, I send in Piloswine

Round Four: Piloswine vs. Dragonair #1
- Dragonair gets Poisoned
- I Ice Shard (which always goes first) and get down to right above yellow health
- Dragonair Dragon Pulses, gets me down to half
- Dragonair takes poison
- I Ice Shard again, Dragonair #1 faints
- Claire sends in Dragonair #2, I keep out Piloswine

Round Five: Piloswine vs. Dragonair #2
- Dragonair #2 is poisoned
- I Ice Shard, get down to yellow health (about half)
- She Dragon Pulses, I faint, send in Quagsire
- She takes poison

Round Six: Quagsire vs. Dragonair #2
- She Dragon Pulses, doesn't do anything
- I EQ, Dragonair #2 faints

I HAVE ALL EIGHT BADGES NOWWWW!

Onto the Johto Leau- wait! That idiot didn't give me a badge. Oh jeez, to the Dragon Den........

Team is all the same, just a couple level ups.
 
jeez i need to update more. also, i like the userbar idea.

Went through union cave. needless to say, it sucked. I ran into like 5 onixs in 2 minutes. that's probably a record. I wish people would stop calling me. Hooray for Azalea Town! Who's that old Dude? oh well. wait, he's Kurt? damn that means....
In the slowpoke well. Batty learned Bite! destryed some people, then this leader guy. blah blah blah blah blah..... next time i'll do the gym.
 
Just figured I'd post a sample of the Userbars. This one is for the Normal-type Challenge.

(image no longer exists)
Tell me what you guys think. I personally think the text looks a bit too pushed together.
 
maybe a bit squished, but otherwise really cool.
thought i'd do one more update before bed. and I have a question, should i get a dratini here at Goldenrod or wait for the extremespeed dratini later?

alright, so i beat bugsy after i got Batty to Lv.17 (i love early wing attack). the metapod and kakuna were pitiful. Why make Bugs so bad? WHYYYYYYY?!?!?!?!?! (i still love my bugs) also, while fighting trainers after Ilex forest, Da king the Pidgey evolved into Pidgeotto. All hail the Da King!!!! Long live the king!!! i know, bad jokes, but i've been wanting to do that since i named him. also, renamed Flyboy. i didn't really like Da King as a name. Renamed my Hoothoot Hooters after i lost a bet (screw my friends). Batty's wing attack pretty much kills anything it comes in contact with.

Team (too lazy to find pics):

Batty/Zubat Lv.18
Wing Attack
Astonish
Supersonic
Bite

Flyboy/Pidgeotto Lv.18
Whirlwind
Sand-Attack
Gust
Quick Attack

Hooters/Hoothoot Lv.19
Uproar
Peck
Reflect
Hypnosis
 
The text seems cramped but it's damn sexy otherwise =]
 
Alright i want to take this challenge.
Username: Shiari Xero
Type: Fighting
Version: Soul Silver
Team: Still thinking of it, though it will have Lucario and Heracross
First off though, is it ok, since fighting types are so scarce at the beginning, if i import two eggs? (which would be Riolu and Shroomish) If not then i will only import Riolu.

I think .EJ will allow two eggs, since you don't get a Fighting-type Pokemon for a while. He's the final say on this though, but I think that it'll be okay.
 
Arcelio's correct. I'll allow two eggs for your "starters"

I'll go ahead and add you.

Come to think of it, I should have considered doing that early on....poor toxic potato was stuck with poliwag for a while lol.

I'm coming back in with the Water type. :)


  • Started game, picked Male character, named Pisces.
  • Got assaulted by a little blue creature as soon as I left my home. It's true what they say, the streets really aren't safe anymore.
  • Entered Elm's lab, picked a Totodile, named NomNomNom.
  • Suffered through Elm's lecture on how to use the Pokemon Healy Thingy.
  • A suspicious looking man gave me some drugs before I could leave. Apparently I have to use them on my Pokemon if they are in danger. Great.
  • The blue thing was waiting for me! Good thing it's mistress called it off at the last second.
  • Some random girl won't let me leave. It's a free country! You can't do this!
  • Got the Pokegear from Mum, and told her not to save my money. She's a chronic shopper.
  • Now Elm won't let me go! Apparently I need his phone number!
  • OH MY GOD A RAT! KILL IT TOTODILE KILL IT
  • This Route's so scary! I can barely walk five meters without being attacked by something. Eep!
