What types are still available?

Ok, here's the next installment!

*image removed*
---My adventure thus far---
- Taught Seedot Bullet Seed and easily defeated Roxanne
:::Nosepass was a bit of an annoyance, but it went down pretty easily. Though Roxanne was a bit of a Potion spammer...:::
- Saved Peeko and the Devon Goods
:::I fought the Students near Rusturf tunnel, past the CUT trees, and Seedot evolved! :D:::
- Went to Dewford after talking to the Devon president
- Delivered letter to Steven
- Skipped the gym for now (my Dark types plus the gym's fighting types = bad matchup o.O)
- Headed to Slateport; defeated all the trainers on the beach and in the Soda Pop shack
- Delivered Devon Goods to Captain Stern, fought Magma Grunts; got the TM for Thief
- Went north past Slateport; defeated the first Trick Master challenge
::: Poochyena evolved in the Trick Master's house! :):::
- Fought rival and won on my second try
:::It was hard to beat my rival since she had Combusken, who unfortunately knew Double Kick and Focus Energy. Super-effective + critical hits is bad for any team. On my second try, I was a lot more offensive and defeated him pretty easily.:::
- Hacked and slashed my way up to Mauville
- Battled the trainers in the Mauville/Verdanturf area, including Wally
- Got a bike and went back down to Slateport via the Cycling Road
- Went back to Dewford and easily defeated the gym leader
:::This battle was actually pretty pathetic. He got a few hits on me, but in the end, he only did around 20 HP's worth of damage to my Mightyena, so I didn't even bother with healing items.:::
- Went back to Mauville to take the gym challenge

I'll join in on this with the fighting type, using sapphire.

Planning to use makuhita, eventually hariyama, shroomish to be breloom, and torchic moving to blaziken.

Sounds really fun, going to be hard but I'll do it xd (6th badge i'll be owned :P, and 7th XD)

[/quote]
Two people wre aloud per type so grass is still open.

Hi, if it's still free, can I have a go at Normal pokémon? I have to wait for a while, my Ruby and Sapphire were sent to Nintendo to get fixed, but they should be back soon :D

Sure!

Update
Got through granite cave.
Gave Steven the letter.
Caught 4 more Zigzagoons to try to pick up rare candies.
 
Well, I have won, it was tough

[PokeCommunity.com] R/S Monotype Challenge


Yeah I might've bothered showing screenshots of the enemies fainting, but the battle was too unpredictable, Metagross swept my team twice before I got lucky with the Yawn/Yawn/Hypnosis' working on him, allowing me to revive magcargo to 2ko him with flamethrower. Claydol has really, really annoying moves against a Rock monotype challenge >< I should've picked up Shadow Ball for Phoebe but just managed to hax and get a couple of +Attacks from Metal Claw early on.

All in all, definitely challenging.

Edit: Why is the Ice type banner and Ground type banners missing?
