I think the Orre challenges should work! Thank you!

Now if I could get a scramble team for either Gale of Darkness or Colosseum, that would be fantastic, thank you muchly. : ]

Unfortunately, you can't even get Tyranitar until the last battle of the main game, so could I get a replacement for it? Everything else looks great.

No problem. Is Medicham better? According to walkthroughs it should be available halfway through the game.

Signature Move CURSE in Pokémon Platinum

PART 3

​

This part took place about a week ago, so I might forget some details.
After beating Crasher Wake I continued on the story. Cyrus wasn't hard to beat. His Dark-types are immune to or even super effective against most of my team, but Curse strategy was enough this time.

I skipped most of the optional routes and got to Canalave City. Battle with Barry was okayish. If I recall correctly his Heracross surprised me as I didn't have any counter. Battle with Byron was laughable. I didn't even need to set up Curse on Torterra to beat his team. During this time I also went back to Wayward Cave for Earthquake TM and Metal Coat on Iron Island, which means I can evolve Onix to Steelix.

I had problems during Lake arc, mostly because I didn't heal between the battles and without many healing items in my bag I encountered some hard battles. Especially battle with Mars. Her Purugly was annoying.

Candice battle! I don't remember much about this battle, but I think I won easily even with almost no super-effective moves.

Now this is when it got hard. From this point onward, Team Galactic Admins has not only better Pokémon with better movesets, but also are also effective against my main hitter - Torterra. So Team Galactic HQ in Veilstone City and Mt. Coronet were pretty annoying locations. But I somehow manage to clear it in the end. I think Barry had to use his 3rd Pokémon during double battle against Mars and Jupiter. Cyrus battle in Distortion World was hard and I had to restart it several times. I couldn't even use my Curse strategy, because his Pokémon hit really hard.

Now with this part over, I could move to the easy stuff again. I don't even think mentioning Volkner is necessary as I had 2 Ground-types on my team. Let's move to the funny stuff. I decided to get my last Pokémon when I got to the league. I wanted Water-type, so let's list every Pokémon that can learn Curse - Slowpoke, Bidoof, Vaporeon, Lapras, Wooper, Corsola, Mudkip, Wailmer, Spheal and Shellos. I can only get few and I used most of them recently, so only viable choice is Wooper. And so I'm in the process of breeding one right now.

So I received my card almost 1,5 years ago, so uhhh... I guess it's time to do some updates?

Kanto Mono Letter G
I believe I started this challenge around the time I got the card, but quickly lost interest and only did a bunch of Platinum solos ever since. Recently I got the itch to play pokemon again though, so I came back to it and finished what I started. the run wasn't probably as welcoming as I hoped, but I still had fun :tongue-poke:. Hopefully the itch will last for a bit :D

I was a bit worried about this one as Sunkern was the first pokemon that met the requirements and the next earliest was Scraggy. However with some strategy and a bit of grinding even Roxie wasn't so bad.

Signature Move CURSE in Pokémon Platinum

FINAL PART

​

I spent some time breeding my last Pokémon - Wooper. I had to catch not only female Wooper, but also male bidoof and train it to level 53, where it learns Curse. So it took me a while. But I can finally challenge the league.

First of is battle with Barry before the E4. My team isn't really good at killing Normal and Bug Pokémon, so I had to improvise. Braganzas took down Snorlax and Kennedy with Gillete took down Heracross. The rest of the team was easy.

Right after this fight I had to battle Aaron. The master of Bug-types. So you can imagine the struggle I had with this battle. Vespiquen was really annoying to take down. I put Curse on it and even tried to set Braganzas with Curse, but the queen wouldn't let me do it. And she healed herself all the time. Even his Scizor was easier. But I won in the end even with decimated team.

Bertha and Flint on the other hand were easy. My strongest Pokémon countered them and these two fights were over quickly. Lucian was a little bit harder, but not as hard as Aaron. My Ghost-type was weak to Psychic moves and my Psychic-type was weaker than his Pokémon. But once again, I won with combined effort of everyone.

And finally, Cynthia battle. I always look forward this battle, because Cynthia's team is just great. I wish GF would return to this time, where Champion not only had 4 moves on every Pokémon, but the moveset actually made sense. I was afraid of her Togekiss and Garchomp the most. I started with Gillete and almost took down her Spiritomb with an Earthquake. I decided to use Stone Edge just in case it would switch and this prediction turned out to be the right one and her Togekiss lost most of its HP going into the battle. So that was nice. Another rock shot from Gillete knocked it down.

Her next Pokémon was Milotic, which surprised me by taking down Kennedy with one critical Ice Beam. I sent out Dutchman and Cynthia switched to Roserade, which took down Dutchman, after he damaged it with Earthquake. Loathly then finished it and even stood against her Lucario. But she was too slow to it. Lucario then took down Braganzas, before loosing to Pele. Pele then finished Cynthia's Spiritomb and Milotic.

And then it really started. Cynthia sent out Garchomp. It quickly cut down Pele, Gillette and Dutchman, some of them not even touched it. The others only managed to hit it thanks to it recharging from Giga Impact. I revived Kennedy and was able to land a hit, when Garchomp was recharging and then survived Dragon Rush and won me the battle.
Just look at this screen:

Oh and here's the screen right after that:

So with that, I finished my first Sinnoh Challenge in this Bingo. I really enjoyed it and it was first Sinnoh run in a while that I was looking forward to continue in. Also probably the first time I enjoyed Sinnoh altogether. And while I would like to continue with finishing this Bingo (in September it'll be 2 years since I started it), I have on-going runs in all the regions, so I'll put this on hold 'till I finish my Shiny Badge Quest in Ultra Moon, Time Warp in X, SetLocke in Black 2, Random Challenge in Soul Silver, EliminationLocke in Omega Ruby and Randomized Nuzlocke in Fire Red. So yeah, it will take a while. But I might hop on this challenge again if I'll feel like starting one of my remaining challenges.

[SanityStealer]

Well, I've just finished my first challenge! The Duo-Species challenge in Leaf Green is officially complete! Honestly, it was a lot easier than I was expecting. The hardest times I had were right after I deposited my ivysaur HM slave because getting clefairy up to a usable level that early, with no switch training, was not easy. And then I wasted forever at the game corner trying to get enough coins to get the TMs I wanted. But in the end, my team pulled through for me, and I made it through the entire elite four using I think three full restores total, maybe four? And I didn't have to touch my revives at all.

So I'm calling it a wrap, well done me. :] Onto the next challenge!

Duo-Species Leaf Green: The Team

Clefable - Morning - 68
Female, Cute Charm
Solarbeam, Shadow Ball, Mega Punch, Moonlight

Starmie - Evening - 68
Natural Cure
Surf, Psychic, Thunderbolt, Ice Beam​

Bingo Card Progress: 1/24

Thanks, I am going to have fun doing this.

 

[Pumpkaboo92]

Wait, what color in monocolor?

 

[Janp]

Wait, what color in monocolor?

Usually it's up to you (same with Monotypes, Signature moves, ...). But if you want recommendations, Yellow Monocolor sounds interesting for Johto games.

 

[Pumpkaboo92]

So I will use yellow, solo with pikachu, with dragonite and a jolteon in the team, but won't use them~
Now, though, I don't know if my scramble is going to allow the link style in sinnoh, I am sorry if I am bothering you, but this is so I get everything down before I get on that region...
