    Aaron, you are doing very well.

    do you intend on keeping it as a Gloom forever?


    or just trash it? I think a Muk would do much better on your team.

    Actually, I'm just waiting to be able to get a Leaf Stone to evolve it with. In the past, I remember finding one in the game without the use of shard trading, but I don't remember where I got it. Until I get it, however, it's staying a Gloom!

    Oh my. I've found myself a tad underleveled here. Since Flannery was cake, and I'm doing bug, I suppose I just assumed Norman would be easy as well. Argh. Back to the desert for training.

    Flannery Defeated!
    SHEDINJA the genderless Shedinja - Level 23
    Simba the male Ninjask - Level 23
    Pidgeot the female Dustox - Level 26
    Murmur the male Mudkip - Level 23
    Leonidas the male Beautifly - Level 26
    Bubba Gump the male Anorith - Level 21

    In storage:
    Tina Fey the female Poochyena - Level 14 (HMSLAVE)

    can i choose Mudkip as my starter, and then use it becasue the first ground type isn't until near the second gym?

    and if it evolves by the time I find my first ground type, can I still use it?

    You can use starters. :)
    So even if you're running a Ground monotype, you could even use Treecko or Torchic.

    ouch dude, that sucks.

    anyways, here is my first update.

    I've never played Emerald before. I've played sapphire. it should be close to the same right?
    11:03 start time.
    0 pokemon
    0 badges

    I chose Treecko, because I think it'll be easier for me when some water types come at me.
    beat May

    Treecko Lv.7

    helped Wally

    caught a marill as a water HM slave. LV. 5
    the damned double battles forced Marill to lv. 7 TT_TT
    Beat Roxanne

    Treecko lv. 16
    Marill Lv. 7

    after Marill gained another level due to the frequency of double battles in this game, I caught a Nincada so it can be in the Double battles instead.

    Beat May in Rustboro
    Grovyle Lv. 18
    Nincada Lv. 8
    Marill Lv. 8

    I tried to fight Brawly, but his Mukuhita KO'ed my entire team. So I ran into the cave, caught a geodude, delivered the letter, then trained until Grovyle was Lv. 24

    then I beat him with a screech/quick attack combo! woo!
    Grovyle Lv. 24
    Geodude Lv. 10
    Nincada Lv. 10
    Marill Lv. 8

    Small Update today.

    Tate & Liza Defeated!!! (And GOD, did they take forever!!!)
    -Tentacruel L37
    -Crobat L37
    -Weezing L37
    -Swalot L37
    -Seviper L37
    -Vileplume L38 (Thanks ArcticGlaceon, for letting me know about the Leaf Stone)

    It looks like some of the contestants are starting to get through the game pretty fast. Good luck to all of you, because, even though I currently have seven badges, I feel like I'm not going to be the one to win this challenge. First off, I have NO idea how I'm going to go through the Battle Frontier (Factory excluded) with only the poison types of Emerald. Secondly, I've been slowing lately because I also have college stuff to do as well. However, I'm still going to be trying to do as well as I can, and I hope you can all do your best as well. I'm rooting for all of you!
