    I know, I was extremely lucky to encounter my Latias right when I went into the desert for Regirock.

    I little late (more like pretty late), but I started the challenge on Colosseum. I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to finish it by the deadline but I'm going to try. I'm at Agate Village in the middle of getting Hitmontop after four hours in, so we'll see. I missed one Shadow Pokemon so far (freakin' Remoraid) so thank god for the Snagem Hideout (iirc?)

    This looks fun. I've always wanted to continue playing challenges, and this would be a good challenge to restart. Although I have to hurry, I think I can do it in time.

    User: Cid
    Game: Pokemon Emerald

    I'll probably edit this post for my first update.

    Update # 1:

    I decided to use only Shadow Pokemon from Colosseum/XD because I like the added challenge.
    I just blazed through the first three gyms, and I'm currently in Mauville. My party at the moment is:

    It wouldn't be a shadow Blaziken, lmao. All starters are immune to the Shadow stuff, remember that.

    Also, forgot about the wild Pokemon in XD. Shoot. :/ Yeah, shouldn't be using those. Only purified Pokemon you should have is your starter.

    Laure is going to do something very risky
    and I probably won't finish the challenge
    but.....
    I ordered Sapphire version off of Ebay and I want to beat it so I can use all the Pokes for Pokepark in White Version
    It should be in the mail tomorrow or wednesday
    Once I get it I will pull an all nighter and try and complete this challenge by the 31st
    Til then I will find a way to harrass Sydian on twitter

    Update # 3:

    I'm sorry for not updating earlier! :[
    I got lazy and just breezed through the main storyline. I also purified my main team, although I think Magnemite only got purified by level 42 (which was really late, lol). And I love my Gardevoir. Now then, I'm off to catch the legendaries, and Save the Pokemon!
