I've decided to try and catalogue my adventure through this mod in my normal way: With a single 'Mon line. In this case I've decided on a good fallback: Nidoqueen/King.
~BROCK~Spoiler:Before Brock it's worth noting the initial rival fight is unwinnable if you choose Bulbasaur as Charmander has a 60+STAB Fire move and you have what amounts to Leech Life.
Getting a Nido was easy enough, but in Blueberry I could only seem to find Nidoran Females, so the Queen of 'Mons was chosen for me instead of by me.
That being said, the Brock fight itself wrecked me. I had forgotten that the Nidos were weak to Ground, but in the end, some level grinding got me through the fight.
~MISTY~Spoiler:The road to Misty was rather easy. Mount Moon gave me the Moonstone I'd need to make my Nido a Queen, and so I bit that apple, initially believing I was dooming my new Queen to a life of few moves before TMs come into play. I was wrong. Queenie's new found strength led her to a crushing victory against Misty's psychic sea stars.
~SURGE~Spoiler:Oh, boy, where to begin. The second major Rival fight was a tiny bit touch and go, but ended with Earth Spikes killing his Charmander with ease, and again aboard the SS Anne, only this time Queenie had a new toy in her hands: Crush. I knew after reading your description about changing everything that Body Slam wouldn't remain the same, but I didn't expect a 100 power move this early.
Needless to say Surge and his trashcans didn't stand a chance.
I'll keep going tomorrow after work. Here's hoping my Nidoqueen has what it takes to go the distance.
We're cheering for Queenie! I love your breakdown, can't wait to hear more! Crush might be a touch on the powerful side...but hey, it isn't STAB, so you'll have stronger moves at some point later. Hmhmmmmmm.
I'd include Erika in here now, if I didn't crash hard trying to sort through my TMs in Celadon by trying to use TM 13 to learn what it is.
I'm sorry about this! I'm aware of this bug and will be attempting to fix it. I'll upload new patches if I succeed.
