3rd Gen R/S/E Monotype Challenge!

[Ninja Caterpie]

Higher might be better.

Steven/Wallace has Pokemon in their high 50's.

 

[PlatniumPiano]

Well I was able to do pretty well on the E4. Mine were all 55 (but they were steel, Aggron was brutal, and I was playing Ruby), so I'm pretty sure its do-able.

Chapter 6: What's the Weather?

Traveled up the jungle of madness, skipped EVERY SINGLE TRAINER!
Saw some Aqua men blocking the way
It was getting wet, so I decided to go inside this conveniently placed house
Saw some blue men, beat them up
Found out they wanted to know the weather, what a plot twist!
Helped out the weather men, even though they had plenty of Castforms to defend themselves!
The weather let up a bit, so I decided to leave
My girlfriend saw me and challenged me
Easily beat her, then she gave me something actually useful, HM FLY
Scott saw me fight and wanted to watch me like a stalker
Strolled past Winona's Land
Helped Steven see the unseeable
Went down the route where people can KILL you!
Caught a Shuppet, named her Ghost
Taught Ghost Thunderbolt
Trained Ghost a few levels before I died for the first time!
Stupid Rangers...
Oh, btw, ditched Shedinja. You knew it was coming!

Sorry i havent updated in so long. my laptop has been slowly crashing. i dont remember specifics but i know ive done the following
-cleared team magma out of mt. chimmney
-beat flannery
-caught a trapinch
-numel evolved
-marhstomp also evolved
-beat norman
-taught swampert both surf and ice beam.
currently training trapinch before going much further

im hoping to have things go back to normal soon

 

[syphilis]

i decided against using zangoose or spinda because i didn't feel like training them...

so i'll be sticking with meese and death. for the rest of the challenge.

i went through meteor falls and stuff, and then i beat maxie on top of the volcano which was incredibly easy. then i beat flannery which was annoying because both meese and death. were attracted to that torkoal. i couldn't see what was so special about it, but i guess she was...rather attractive (HAH! it would've been a pun if i said she was hot, but i didn't say it. i win, puns.). and then i beat daddy. his first slaking abused facade, so i abused double team and made it miss to the point where it was forced to use faint attack and do almost nothing. and then vigoroth could only use faint attack, so i murder'd it. the second slaking used an unexpected focus punch, so i healed and it punched me. i survived though. and then i killed it out of spite.

Team:

death. lvl 35 @ Silk Scarf

This sounds like fun. ^^ Mind if I join in?

[PlatniumPiano]

^ Yesssss....

Here's a little tip-I thought Mawile was pretty useless. But I'd go ahead and use it anyways, if just to have four party members. Aggron's definatley your best bet there, Magneton's nice and Skarmory.... Eh. But its a really fun run lol if we can get two steel champions we'll own the world >:]

BTW King(o)! I know you're back tommorow so I have a question about this first post:

Champions
Steel: JohnPaulJones(1)

Does this mean I can keep re-challenging for eternity 0_0 so it eventually will look like this?

Champions
Steel: JohnPaulJones([maxedout])

 

[Christopher]

I having a go at it using my favorite type STEEL!! see if I can get it done
as soon as I get a Scizor I'll be golden

Chapter 7: Dawn of the Duskull!

Decided to go get a Duskull before challenging Winona
Traveled all the way back to Mt. Pyre and climbed up the stairs
Reached to about the third floor skipping as much battles as possible
Walked around avoiding the trainers I hadn't battled yet
Fled from the annoying Shuppets (Why won't the stop?!?!?)
FINALLY found a Duskull, female. named her Shadow. (You know, this always happens to me! When I choose a boy as the hero, I always find the Pokemon I want on my team to be females!)
Ran all the way back to Fortree
Finished off the trainers on the Jungley Route
Sableye learned Shadow Ball, an important move!
Gave the lonely woman a Harbor Mail, she gave me a Coin Case
Spent every single cent I had for Ice Beam
Taught Ice Beam to Shadow
After I taught Shadow Ice Beam, I figured out her Special Attack was pretty low, so it was a waste of money!
Let some steam off on Winona's lackeys
Ghost evolved! Yay!
Flew into battle with Winona (Get it, flew?)
Shadow took down Swablu and Tropius (Lucky for Criticals!)
Ghost took down Swellow, Pelliper and almost Altaria
Had to get rough, so I sent out Sableye for a few Shadow Balls
Made Winona cough up her badge and saved.

Chapter 8: Melting Maxie!

Ran down to Lilycove City beating all of the trainers
Wen back to Route 221 (or something) and went South of Mt. Pyre
Beat every trainer there, even went back to the Trick House
Caught a Wingull for Fly
Taught Wingull Fly
Flew back to Mt. Pyre, climbed up the tower
Once I finished the insides, I traveled the outside
Found some Magma members, beat them up
Finally found the cult's leader, Maxie
he talked about something, but I didn't care. He ran away
The old people gave me a Magma Emblem
Flew back to Vendanturf Town
Broke a rock and some buff guy gave me an HM 04
I traveled to Flannery's Town, went up the Jagged Pass
"Discovered" Magma's "secret" hideout
Shadow evolved! YAY!
Went all the way through the magma hideout and fought members who just wanted to tell me about their problems
Finally found Maxie trying to awaken Groundon with some Orb (Never heard about a Poke Flute, did he?)
He blamed me for the mess and fought
-I sent out Ghost against his Mighteyanna, needless to say a few Thunderbolts took him down
-Crobat was a piece of pie, two Thunderbolts from Ghost took him out
-I sent out Shadow (even though she had only a few bits of health left, just for the Amulet Coin boost). She did nothing, so Sableye Shadow Balled Camerupt to death. Yeah, I'm pro.

Cheers,

Chapter 9: Toppling Twins!

After feeling cool, I flew back to Lilycove
some Aqua members blocked the entrance to their cult, so I went to Slateport
Coincidentally, some people were trying to steal a submarine!
They got away, so I went back to Lilycove
This time the lair was open
I went inside making sure I thoroughly did everything (Stole their Masterball!)
I found an Admin and crushed him
Archie got away, but that isn't the last I'll see him again
I swam over to Mossdeep and went into the Space Center
Nothing happened, so I went to the Gym
Beat up the trainers and got past the annoying traps
Finally found Liza and Tate
Tried to beat them, but failed
After my defeat, I grinded for a bit (only a few levels)
Now I challenged them again and WON!
-Xatu was saved for last, he was the weakest one
-Claydol was probably the reason I lost, his Earthquake would rip me to shreds. Had to use a Sableye Shadow Ball, Shadow Shadow Punch combo.
-Lunatone was easy, he never landed a hit
-Solrock set up a Sunny Day, but I beat it before it could use it

Chapter 10: The Legend of Rayquaza!

I went to Steven's house to see what's up, but he wasn't there
Decided to check the Rocket Lab
For some reason, it was flooded with Magma people!
I fought all the way through the first floor and climbed up the stairs
When I got up, I got cornered by some Magma thugs
After I beat them up, I saw Steven facing off Maxie and his trusted Admin
I decided to help and Steven pitched in three of his Pokemon (Metang, Skarmory, and Aggron)
-Instead of describing the battle, I'll tell you how EPIC it was with Steven's Pokemon by my side.
-Metang was pretty good, he just wouldn't die! I wanted to have him lose so I could see what types of other Pokemon could be used
-Sadly, Skarmory was never used so I can't say much about it...
-Aggron had killer moves. It's a shame he was sent out during the same time as Camerupt. Earthquake OHKOed Aggron in one hit, even with Thunder and Dragon Claw.
Once that was all said and done, Maxie realized the error of his ways
Steven thanked me for my deeds and left
I checked his house and he gave me a HM 0something (Dive)
Taught Mudkip the HM Dive and scanned the sea
Found the secret lair of Kyogre and some Aqua men
Beat them up and found Kyogre
Archie appeared and wanted to fight me (loser)
-Mighteyanna was a bit annoying. It took a Confuse Ray and Dusclops to take him down.
-Crobat was fairly easy, two Thunderbolts shot him out of the sky
-Sharpedo was probably the easiest. Only one Thunderbolt was needed (Soo lucky for Sharpedo's low defense!)
Archie's Red Orb glowed (why does Kyogre get the Red and Groundon get the Blue Orb? Shouldn't it be switched around?)
Kyogre woke up but ran away
Archie got a call and learned Kyogre is causing terror with the weather
Maxie came and gave Archie the wake-up call he needed
We all got teleported out and the weather changed every two seconds!
I swam to Sootopolis and found the beasts fighting eachother
*image removed*
Talked to Steven and he led me to Wallace
Wallace told me to seek out Rayquaza and so I found out the Sky Pillar
I climbed up it (Hey, there's barely any cracking tiles!) and found Rayquaza
Without saying a word, Rayquaza zoomed out of the sky somewhere
I left back to Sootopolis and found this:
*image removed*
Rayquaza calmed the beasts and they went back to their respective places
Archie and Maxie left to (maybe) return their stolen orbs and Wallace thanked me.
After that, I healed my Pokemon (never healed form the beginning of this report to the end) and saved.
Probably the most epic of the storyline
