Heart Gold,Yellow,Fire Red,Soul Silver,Emerald,Diamond,Red,Silver,Platinum

Oh joy another semi-boring game :/

Oh well we all gotta do it,I'm making this that Strategy challenge GoGoShinyDunsparce was talking about in the CI&D

Edit: I went to look in my game holder but Diamond wasn't there :/. POST PONED

Red time.

Arnold · Oct 2, 2010

Spoiler:

Yeah cannot do that. I found out that when I returned to it, I was back in Pallet Town after the Elite Four so postphoned.

Later I will get going with Diamond which is interesting I guess.

HaloSonic · Oct 2, 2010

sounds interesting for a challenge, but its a bit time consuming to do during school, and all my main games ive completed. ill try this at Christmas time, when im free.

This is for yesterday's game.

Date: Saturday, October 2
Version: Diamond
Time: 34:29
Location: Hearthome City

:t169: - f - Lv. 31 : Wing Attack, Aerial Ace, Fly, Roost - Relaxed

:t171: - m - Lv. 42 : Surf, Thunderbolt, Flash, Discharge - Lonely

:t326: - m - Lv. 41 : Psybeam, Shadow Ball, Shock Wave, Rest - Quiet

:t074: - f -Lv. 20 : Rock Throw, Magnitude, Rock Smash, Strength - Hasty

Mantyke - m - Lv. 35 : Surf, Blizzard, Wing Attack, Take Down - Serious

Infernape - m - Lv. 43 : Fire Blast, Focus Blast, Cut, Close Combat - Modest

Yeah Diamond kind of made me bored me a lot. Besides that, I let my brother make a file on my Diamond after trading to my Platinum. Yeah a lot of trading went on and some are more overleveled then others. I didn't do much due to the fact that he had to go through Mt. Coronet and eventually find Dialga. So I switched some Pokemon around and tried grinding most of them but overall I got nothing done.

Next up is Blue where I'll start my Beginning Letter Challenge for D.

Oh wait I forgot I already started my Scrambled Challenge so I'll be playing that instead.

Red was boring :/

Draknir · Oct 5, 2010

This is a very interesting concept.

EDIT: Realized I left some games on that I had completed already(As in, nothing left to do period), so I re-randomized the list.

Spoiler:

Yeah, I eliminated Five, as I got to thinking about them.

Update on Blue later.

Scramble Challenge Restrictions and Pokemon

Spoiler:

Okay I battled everyone from Nugget Bridge and Bill's house which was hard for the low-leveled Sandshrew until he learned Slash. Misty took a couple of tries but managed to break through with a taught Dig to Charmeleon. Sandshrew evolved into Sandslash. Fought the trainers east of Vermilion and in the S.S. Anne. Lt. Surge was easy for Sandslash. Got Teleport for my later known Shellder/Cloyster. Defeated Erika and Team Rocket in Celadon and Lavender. Got the Super Rod to catch Poliwag and Shellder. Caught Shellder in Vermilion and caught Poliwag in Viridian. Next time I will be grinding them but that will come at a later date.

Next up is Emerald where I will yet pick up one of my old challenges, the Class Challenge with Techno Pokemon which is an ultimate challenge and very tough with two Electric Pokemon for the first two generations and Porygon for the first.

Sorry for my delay guys. And even sorrier for this half ass attempt at the Black part of my challenge.

Game: Black (ROM)
Player: Eru
Badges: 0
Time: 0:00

Now, I've been having trouble with the ROM saving already. And today I only got to play for an hour, and when I saved and thought I had gotten it right, I checked to see if it would work, and low and behold it still didn't save. I'm not going to bother with that ROM anymore if it's not gonna save. I've tried everything. :/ Tomorrow starts much better runs on my games, I promise. :< But I got to the first battle with N...and that's it.

This looks to me like my abandoned HM challenge. Yeeeeah. After beating Wallace, I decided to scrap that plan. I didn't wanna grind all day. But in the spirit of the challenge, I made sure I had at least one of each HM still on the team. Caught Groudon, don't know why I was in Mauville when I started. lmao Also, I want to point out that Clamperl is a beast. Bravery lived up to her name and went against Drake on her own pretty much. Took out a level 55 Salamence...and she was only level 43 at the time. But Steven was a pain. Thought I was gonna lose that one. Metagross is a...you get me.

Wow, Syd, didn't that challenge die like a year ago or so? I wouldn't have the file anymore after all the time.

And yes, as you might have noticed, ~~I am back from vacation in Bava- uh, I mean~~ I'm back from the dead. That's right, living up to my user title once more. Our rusty swords will never rest.

So, it's already a bit late, but why not play a bit. 1Pokemon/Gym challenge on Yellow. Goddammit, Brock is going to suck. But hey, I'll get rid of Pikachu after that.

Daaamn, grinding is taking eternally in these games. I swear, it took me like 20 minutes only to get Wotter from level 13 to 14. That's also why I plan to keep my team small: Wotter and just enough to compensate for its weaknesses. And some slaves.

Is there a Fire/Ground type in Isshu?

This is why I took a break from White and went back to working on this challenge. The grinding is ridiculous. They changed something about exp. gain, I'm fairly sure. And no, I don't think there's a fire/ground, however there is Fire/Ghost...Fire/Bug...GHOST/GROUND...weird typings in this generation, I have to say. Now, this update is for yesterday's game. I only got in a little over an hour due to having a wedding and a band performance. Should have just waited til today to play it, but oh well.

I#ve noticed this before as well. It's like exp are determined by the level difference. Which makes grinding to level 15 (in an earlier BW attempt I wiped at lv.13 against the first leader) pure hell against the level 6 Pokemon of the second route. I can only hope it will get better when I get further into the game, and won't get 10-20 exp per battle for all the game when trying to grind.

As for my second teammember in white, I think I'll just go with the Fire monkey there, since I already have one. Though Shandeera and Mothra do look incredibly temping, but I don't expect them to be available early enough. Or I'll just pick the first ground type I find, since Wotter won't be afraid of Grass types anymore as soon as I first stumble across the number "13" in the game. Maybe deal-w/-it-croc?

Yeah, I wanted to be at level 10 for the first fight with N, but even when you only have your starter on your team, it's insanely difficult. And you can forget fighting the first gym leader without some sort of back up. Oh and Seed bby should be your next member in White jsyk.

Did a lot on this one, haha. I really enjoy playing older games and seem to chug right through them with minimum grinding. I beat Koga...somehow Pikachu won against his Venomoth, and the lil guy only had 10 HP. Totally an anime moment. And even more anime momentish is that Pikachu beat Sabrina's Alakazam as well. :| Lost to Blaine's Arcanine though looololol. I also spent countless hours in Seafoam Islands. I wanted to catch Articuno to replace Pidgeot, and later Moltres to replace Hitmonlee. Oh. And. I caught it in one Ultra Ball, excluding the first one that missed. I did good today!
