Update #1 from me.

- chose charmander, nicknamed "Hm Slave", got murdered by rival due to double crit hax.
- Caught a level 4 female pidgey, nicknamed "Kat"
- Trained Kat to level ten and challenged rival. Barely won wtih three Hp left.
- Got owned by Brock. Decided to train more.
- Tried again. Beat geodude, then got 2HKO by Rock Tomb from Onix.
- Trained Kat to evolution point. Now in possesion of a Pidgeotto, named "Kat" Lv. 18
- Finally beat Brock on my 5th try, due to much spamming of sand-attack and potion abuse.
- escaped Mt. Moon, teaching Kat Thief once I found it, to deal with pesky rock-types.
- Fought Misty and lost to Starmie.
- Lost AGAIN thanks to Water Pulse confusion and hurting myself twice in a row.
- Won at last thanks to Thief being Super effective vs. Starmie.


My pogeyman:

Pidgeotto ("Kat")
Level: 27
Moves: Thief, Sand Attack, Wing Attack, Quick Attack

Also in possesion of a Level 5 Charmander, a HM slave.

Quick question, am i allowed to level up charmader? If I get it to charizard, I can teach it Fly, cause I don't want to use that on Kat.
 
Thanks to RedWire, we now have a userbar that runners can put in their sig.

This sounds really fun, so I'll take a crack at it. I'll be using Marill for Emerald.

Also, according to Serebii, Marill can be found in Routes 102, 111, 114, 117 and 120 in Emerald. But I found it a lot of times on Route 104. Never found it on 102, though.

EDIT: I caught my Marill at Route 104.
