Wigglytuff
Sudowoodo
Farfetch'd
Azumarill
Sunflora

This team should work with any of the versions.I kept rolling trade-evos, so if you end up being able to trade, feel free to sub in Scizor or SteeliX

Never realized Jigglypuff was available before the first gym.

Confirming this team!

I'm curious to see I do with only Jigglypuff until I get to Goldenrod

Whoops! Did not see that I got two rolls for my GSC team. I'll stick with MegaDrianGiga's roll for that game, and use yours for RBY.

Can I get a reroll on Lapras? I think I've used it in just about every Kanto game lol

 

[MegaDrainGiga]

Sorry for rolling twice, I mustve been writing my post when the first was posted.

Signing up myself!

Game Version: Firered

Any way I can get a re-roll on Wigglytuff😅
Though I hate to break up the Wigglytuff twins, I have been looking for a Jigglypuff for over an hour and am having no luck finding one. I know they're rare, but Im really wanting to get started, and already know Im going to have to spend awhile looking for Marill later on. So any other pre-first gym pokemon! (I officially decided on Gold Version, so cant do Ledian or Teddiursa)

Sure thing!

How about Furret!

 

[GrassN]

Perfect, thank you. Confirmed!

Update 1

Moving fairly quickly! I have beaten both Faulkner and Bugsy with no trouble at all actually. Furret's pretty good, and is able to sweep most of the pokemon I've fought since getting the second badge. I will say getting him to evolve was a little bit of a task, because Sentret is just SO slow, but once he learned Quick Attack it fixed that.

Right now I just caught my Sunkern and am going to level it and Furret up before I try Whitney. I already won the bug catching contest, so I can get Sunflora whenever (and though I would love to hold off til it learns Giga Drain, I dont think I can make it til lvl 46) but going to spend a little more time before evolving it.

Current Team

Barker / Furret (M) Lvl. 21

Fury Swipes
Ice Punch
Quick Attack
Mud Slap

Solia / Sunkern (F) Lvl. 15

Absorb
Growth
Mega Drain

Sure. I rolled for a new Water-type and got Starmie for you.

Will get started on it soon after I finish my Gold run

Update 2


Much slower progress today! For one, Whitney lived up to her reputation as difficult yet again. She might be the most capable AI in these early games. She locked my Sunkern into a nearly 15 turn Encore of Growth, and every time it ran out she immediately used it before I could use a different move. Then after that, despite me trying to be smart and avoid her Miltank's Rollout, as soon as I lowered its accuracy with Mudslap, she only used Stomp the rest of the battle, and along with Attract, I was out in no time. Second time around went much better, as I just led with Furret and used Mudslap until even Stomp was missing a lot of the time.

After getting the third badge, I went straight to catch my third Pokemon, and though I have only used him for a short time so far, Sudowoodo is kind of great. It has a lot of good coverage with fighting and rock moves, and can even learn the elemental punches. After that, I decided to start looking for my fourth 'mon of Marill. Looking for a 1% spawn rate was not fun, but only ended up taking about 30-45 minutes. I'm going to spend some time leveling everyone up, but before I challenge Morty, but thankfully, Sudowoodo and Marill will make him much easier then trying to go in with only a normal and grass type.

My first challenge update!

Spoiler:

I had some time to get started on my FireRed challenge and it's going well! I have never used any of these pokemon before, so its making the game more interesting.
Badge #1 - Done: Mankey was great for fighting Brock, and I think I beat him with Mankey at level 9. However, I have never had so much trouble with Viridian Forest! Every pokemon resisted the only decent move I had, so I had to keep leaving to heal, so it took awhile to get there!
Badge #2 - Done: I had to spend quite a bit of time training up Jigglypuff and Mankey to beat Misty, because her Starmie really did some damage with Water Pulse. I ended up going down to Vermillion City and using trainers around there to level up, and finally was able to keep Starmie asleep long enough to knock it out.
Badge #3: I'm on the SS Anne with Drowzee now, and just about to face my rival, Mankey evolved, so I really don't think I will have much issue with him or with Surge. I may have some time tomorrow to keep playing through it so will post an update soon!

My Team!

Primeape - Level 28 - Relaxed
Karate Chop, Fury Swipes, Seismic Toss, Rock Tomb

Jigglypuff - Level 23 - Naïve
Sing, Rollout, Mega Punch, Mega Kick

Drowzee - Level 21 - Naïve
Pound, Confusion, Hypnosis, Disable

Update 3

Smaller update today. Took a little while to train up Marill, but luckily it evolves at only 18, so started moving a lot quicker after that. With Azumarill and Surf, Morty was no problem at all. I've decided not to evolve Sunkern until level 31 so I can get both synthesis and petal dance, but at this point its becoming very difficult to train it even with a type advantage. Surfing in the Whirl Islands sounded like a great place to train it, but Tentacool's are Poison and Goldeen's know Peck, so only taking a quarter of their HP with Mega Drain doesn't make it easy. Good thing is, once it evolves, I actually think it may be pretty helpful, especially if I keep trying to overlevel it.

My Furret has taken a back seat, but whenever I bring him out, he OHKO's just about anything. Thinking of teaching him Shadow Ball, which would then give him a type advantage move over 8 different types. Also considering renaming him "Fearet" lol

At Chuck's gym, but going to wait til tomorrow to try him, just because I need it to be daytime to catch Farfetch'd and a Flying move will make the gym a lot easier.
