- Started the game and picked Charbroil the Charmander
- Charbroil evolved

- Beat Rival in Cerulean
- Talked to Bill
- Beat Misty after some Minimize hax.
- Crisscross evolved, and then, after some happiness grinding, evolved again.

- Beat Rival in Lavender Tower
- Got to Celadon and spent a *lot* of time in the casino to get some good moves for Crescent.
- Beat Erika
- Did the Game Corner and Pokemon Tower minidungeons

- So Crusty and Charbroil evolve.

- Did the Game Corner Hideout + Pokemon Tower + Silph Co. Rocket segments.
- Sabrina was annoying because Psychic's OP in Gen 1, but after some Minimize spam and luck we did it. Badges: 5 / 8

- Did the Mansion segment and just surfed Blaine away. Badges: 7 / 8
- Same thing with Giovanni really. Badges: 8 / 8
- Beat final rival - Alakazam was the only troublesome Pokémon there.
- After that, all that was left was Victory Road and final grinding.
vs Lorelei
- Mouse just Thundered and Swift its way past her team. Pretty easy.
vs Bruno
- A combination of Turtle's Surf and ???'s Psybeam destroyed the team pretty handily.
vs Agatha
- Pixie just Psychiced everybody, until Gengar which did down it. ??? did the cleanup.
vs Lance
- Turtle just Ice Beam + Surfed the team away.
vs Champion Rival
- Pidgeot went away with one Thunder from Mouse. Alakazam killed Mouse and Turtle before I managed to bring it down, but Pixie and ??? were more than enough to kill the rest, because Pixie has a lot of coverage and ??? is just OP this gen.
First Badge in Kanto-Love at First Sight.
I am using a rom hack called modified Red, its fun, still kanto though.
I chose Charmander because my trainer card dictated it, named him Cole, he's Adamant about beating the league.
On route 1 a Wingull named Gulliver joined my party, he is a very careful pokemon who has a Keen Eye for battle.
Route 22 I snagged a Mankey named Kiki, she's Impish. Her Vital Spirit could serve in handy for Brock, along side Gulliver and Cole.
On Route 2 we were joined by a smol Rattata named Tina, she's very Hardy and not afraid to Run Away.
In the Viridian Forest a Weedle calling herself Queen B joined our rag tag group, she's Docile but her fans tend to Swarm us.
(Note, there are Chansey everywhere for some reason, so I trained on them, there is also exp all in effect, so leveling wasn't hard.)
Facing off against Brock was challenging, he has a larvitar, which falls quickly to my Kiki. Following the Larvitar is an Anorith (I think Brock should have had Kabuto and Omanite to begin with, cause he lives in the city that has the museum, using fossil pokemon seemed like a good idea, team could be the two water rock fossils with his ace being an Aerodactyl, that way you have to have something other than Bulbasaur.) Taken out easily by Kiki's Karate Chop. Next was a Lileep, Cole went out against it taking it out with two metal claws. Brock was defeated. I say it was challenging because I didn't know what he had and had wiped the first time around, after learning his team, I organized my team accordingly. This is the result.

Cole The Charmeleon
Level 17 Adament Nature Blaze Ability Male
So second badge.
Got to the next route, Route 3 I picked up Reggie the Slowpoke who is a little Rash but very Oblivious to this fact.
Then in Mt. Moon I meet the ParasTaki. She is Sassy and has Effect Spore. Going through Mt. Moon was annoying, I don't remember it being this filled with pokemon, of course we got new pokemon, like omanite, kabuto, Lileep, Anorath....Yeah.
But I got through after choosing the Dome Fossil I was out on the next route, I caught and boxed Nina the Meditite, she is Mild but has Pure Power.
At Viridian City I beat Green quickly and easily. I defeat every one on nugget bridge and catch Hudini the Abra who is Mild with Synchronize.
I clean up Route 24 after catching Pit the Pidgey who is Modest and she too, has a Keen Eye.
Next I visit Bill who gives me a s.s.anne ticket, I go to the next route (Route 5) and pick up a Naughty Meowth named Mya (Who I will not evolve.) who likes to Pick Up things.
Next route 6 I catch Blossom the Oddish who is Modest and she has Chlorophyll.
In the new town I train up Mya, Reggie and Taki via the vs. Seeker.
I return to Cerelean and Evolve Reggie into a Slowking with a water stone, aparently this is how to get the traded form, which makes me question how to evolve a Poliwhirl into a Politoad, might just see sometime. I am now ready to battle Misty, first was a freaking Gyrados, so I send in Reggie and confuse it to fainting, after that is Starmei and I send out Taki and hit it several times with Bullet Seed. Badge 2 got.

Cole The Charmeleon
Level 31 Adamant Nature Blaze Ability Male
Third gym:
So, went to the boat, cleaned it out and got cut, taught it to Mya.
Went into the Rock Tunnel, caught Terrance the Diglett who is Bashful and has Sand Veil, was boxed.
On Route 11 I caught Vixie the Vulpix who is Rash and has Flash Fire, also boxed. After this, went through the gym after cutting the bush down with Kiki and Taki. After digging through the trash the door opens and I battle against Surge.
Kiki owns the Mantric, Taki Bullet Seeds the Lanturn, and then Kiki karate Chops the Magnaton and Raichu out of the picture, gym badge 3 got.

Level 32 Adamant Nature Blaze Ability Male
Fourth Badge
I caught a Girafarig named Bob, who is Careful, with Inner Focus, and an Ekans named Cobra who's a little Hasty, but has Intimidate, boxed. I entered into Rock tunnel catching a Machop named Champ who is Hasty with Guts.
Cleared through it leveling my team up, and reach lavender town, I don't do anything here right away and head off to the next route, where I catch Xerxes the Natu who is Jolly with Synchronize.
After there I go through the underground tunnel and pick up Toxica the Grimer who is Quiet, and has Stench.
Afterwards I hit the Casino with a coin case and grind for coins like crazy...Aka using Mya on low level pokemon and pay day. I then grabbed the Dratini who I named Mystery.
Then I trained against trainers to get my pokemon to at least level 40, and challenged the fourth gym...I sweeped it with Cole, It literally was Cole vs. Celebi, flamethrower Celebi dead, Cole vs. Breloom, Wing Attack Breloom fainted. Cole Vs. Ludicolo, Wing Attack Ludicolo Dead. Cole vs. Shiftry, Cole use Flamethrower, Shiftry dead. So yeah, fourth badge get.

Fifth Badge
So I battled against Team Rocket in the basement of the Casino, which I just kept Reggie out front throughout, he owned everyone. Giovanni was easy, his steelix went down with a watergun, his Rhydon did as well, Kangaskhan was taken out with a Karate Chop.
After that I went straight to pokemon tower where I caught a Cubone which I named Lucky . He's Rash and a bit of a Rock Head but cute, don't know if I will use him or not. I did switch Mya out for Leo the Eevee which I picked up at the apartment building, he's Careful, and I evolved him into a Jolteon So he gained Volt Absorb…. (Didn't actually look at his ability until starting to write this! That means he had Adaptability as an Eevee if I am remembering the hidden ability right.) Also, I caught something else in the tower, a gastly, I'm planning on evolving it and seeing if you can get a Gengar with a moonstone, will release it after that though. Anyways, after getting a pokeflute I caught the Static Snorlax , who is named Chuck who is Timid and has diplomatic Immunity. Now going further down I trained on some people and caught Wesley the Sneasel (Who I might pull out and train up a little.) Wesley is Lax and has Inner Focus. I reach Fushia, and here's my cuirrent problem…I can't remember all of Koga's team, as you know it's different, I remember Gengar who I beat with Confusion, Nidoking who I beat with Confusion, and Muk who I beat with Confusion, he had one other but I don't remember what. I beat him though, might record the next big battle so I got the info…. But Badge Get.

Silph co…was easy, even battling Green was, Pidgeot was taken out by Leo, Blastoise by Leo, Exeggute by Cole, Alakazam by Wesley (I did switch out.) Growlithe with Reggie. Speaking of Reggie, he and Leo were my MVP here, they took out Team Rocket Members left and right! Reggie went up against Giovanni wiping his Rhydon, Nidoking and Nidoqueen, Leo took out the Kangaskhan. This was also after boxing Tiana the Lapras . She's Timid and has Water Absorb, which is nice, won't be using her, next is the Psychic gym Dojo. Reggie owned it and I got Jack the Hitmonchan who is Hasty but has a Keen Eye for battle, he will be boxed though. Now it is time for the Psychic Gym. So Sabrina used Slowking who slacked of before being wiped by Wesley, next was a flipping mew, who was wiped by Wesley, then came a Espeon, I sent out Leo so I could heal up Wesley, she got calm minds up and fainted Leo then Mystery but I pulled Wesley back out and wiped the Espeon, then came Alakazam, again, wiped, the only move Wesley used was Faint Attack. I beat her. Badge Get.

Need Surf…Safari Zone….Start I catch Ron the Rhyhorn in Area 1, he has Lightningrod and is Jolly, in Area two I catch Gina the Exeggcute, she has Chlorophyll and is Serious, Area 3 was Rex the Nidoran boy, he has Poison Point, and is Modest, Area four I fished out Lance the Goldeen, he has Swift Swim, and is Brave, After this we went to Pallet town and swam south, catching Lavender the Tangela, who is Serious, and has Chlorophyll. I arrive on Cinnabar and go straight into the Mansion, catching a Koffing who I name Karen, she has Levitate, and is Hasty, going through I train and get the key before escape roping out. I grind before taking on the gym. What is it with the legendaries. Okay, first was Arcanine, who I beat with Water Pulse. Next Ninetails, also Water Pulse, next Moltres, switched to Mystery and surfed him, then houndoom, then Charizard. Last was Ho-oh, which I shockwaved to fainting, and got the badge.

So I took care of island 1, 2, and three with Reggie mainly, didn't catch anything seeing as I am on the last of this adventure. I entered the 8th gym and basically beeline it to Giovanni. He sent out his Quagsire and I had Taki up front, cause she needed time to shine, she used one giga drain and down it went, next was a swampert, again giga drain, down it goes, next Rhyhorn, another giga drain, he brought out his Nidoking and I sent out Reggie who Psychiced it, finally a Flygon and Wesley beat it easily with Icywind, also thinking of changing Wesley's name to Weasley….Will do.

Elite four
So I start by facing my rival before the elite four, I wipe his team. Pidgeot with Leo (Shockwave), Rhyhorn with Reggie (Water pulse), Arcanine with Reggie (Again Water pulse), Alakazam with Weasley (Faint attack), Exeggcute with Weasley (Icy Wind), and Blastoise with Taki (Giga Drain x 2). I get through the check in gates then spray myself down with max repel and quickly run through the victory road, there stood the indigo league! I race in, heal, grab full restores and revives and take on the elite four.
Fist up.
Lorelei
She uses Jynx I have Cole up front, she uses calm mind and I blast her with Flamethrower, next is Regice. Cole uses Flamethrower and gets hit with ice beam, which is weak, he uses flamethrower again, fainting it. Cloyster is next, Leo is sent out and shock waves it to fainting, followed by Articuno which Leo shock waves, takes a hit then shock waves again, last is Lapras who goes down after two shock waves. I heal and move on to:
Bruno
He starts with a Primeape which I counter with Reggie who uses Psychic, Next is Hitmonchan who gets a uppercut first before getting hit by Reggie's Psychic. Next was Blaziken which fainted after Reggie Water pulsed it. Machamp fainted after Psychic. Next up:
Agatha
Gengar starts this off and I struggle a little with Reggie using about three confusion on him, taking a hit from a shadowball. Next was Crobat which Reggie Psychics to fainting. Switching out to Mystery and healing Reggie while Mystery tanks a Shadowball and finishes it off with a Dragon Claw. So I switch in Weasley because Dark darn it, and faint attack the Banette who couldn't even attack poor thing. Next is a Dusclops which Weasely uses Faint attack and takes a hit from a shadowball then uses one more faint attack and finishes it off. Next:
Lance
Salamence wasn't too difficult, used Weasley while it dragon danced it fainted after two icy winds. Rayqauza took three icy winds (Healing after second) and fainted Weasley, but Mystery came in and Dragon clawed it into fainting. Mystery Surfed the Flygon three times before it would stay down, Dragon clawed the latias into submission before allowing Leo to Shockwave the Dragonite twice, then thunder it once. Lance is defeated, and last but not least….
Green
Green starts off with a Scizor which Cole flamethrowers into submission. Blastiose is next and I send out Taki cause she deserves battle time, three giga Drains later (And a terrifying Ice beam at Taki), Blastiose is down and out. Rhydon was easy seeing as Reggie just Water pulses it, next an Arcanine tries to Crunch Reggie to fainting but fails and falls to a Water Pulse. Weasley takes out Alakazam with a Faint Attack, and faints after falling asleep to Exeggutor but Cole flamethrowers him into cooked coconuts. I won, finishing this love at first sight challenge!

So I never realized how Valuable Reggie would have been, he was amazing in this run, helping tank all the various poison types that littered the land, which usually I have challenges with because I never have a good psychic type on my team and forget if i have a ground type on my team. He rocked hard core. Cole did well where I expected him to, helping breeze through Erika with ease. Weasley was highly useful but suffers from being a one evoution pokemon in this generation, he never gave up though! Hence small but VALIANT! He truly has a lionheart. Leo helped out immensely with flying types before I got Weasley but helped out even more when he learned double kick, taking out normies left and right. Taki helped against pesky water types, I have always wanted to use a Parasect because of how cool they look and how useful they can be in first gen, not so much now since we have dark moves, which is why Weasley rocked in Sabrina's gym while Taki set on the side lines. Mystery didn't get as much screen time as I expected she would, I love the Dratini line, but often stop the females at Dragonair because they are more graceful, but decided against it in this run, Mystery rocked againsst other dragon types but we don't get many of those. This team was so much fun to play with to say the least, it's been a long time since I have had this much fun in a pokemon game, which is a little sad to be truthful, will do another run soon.

Very late, but I don't think the charts expire. If you have it handy, go for it.
If you want a new one though, just let me know.
Did the Champion Challenge on Pokémon Red.
Basically I started with Charmander, got Magikarp at the Mt. Moon Center, got Abra above Cerulean and then Eevee in Celadon.
The run was pretty easy as most runs that let you use a lot of good Pokemon tend to be.
Brock was the hardest gym leader, that's the level we're working with here (to be fair, Gyarados and Alakazam are broken).
Some highlights: Koga, Blaine, Giovanni and all the E4 members were more or less clean sweeps without any deaths. For the gym leaders I was about 10 levels underlevelled and I matched Lorelei's average level.
The only reason Blue was kinda hard was because I forgot to use an Ether which meant I had to improvise, and he got a freeze on Alakazam, but yeah, I beat him first try without any items.
4 / 49
Also, I'll be changing Unova to Galar because I kinda hate playing Unova for challenges, and I got Sword some time after that, and it was actually pretty pleasant. None of the challenges there were Unova centric so it should be fine, I think.
It pretty much just spammed Thunderbolt the whole run.
Blaze the Charizard (54)
- Ember
- Dig
- Fissure
- Slash
I added Fissure in case I needed the hax but I never needed it. Welp.
Krakken the Gyarados (55)
- Surf
- Strength
- Body Slam
- Ice Beam
Weirdly enough, the most versatile. Strength was kinda useless outside of HM purposes, but Surf and Body Slam did a lot of a damage. Ice Beam tore through Lance's dragons.
Mob the Alakazam (56)
- Psychic
- Teleport
- Tri Attack
- Recover
Did the Pick-A-Route Challenge in Pokémon Yellow, it was pretty normal as most runs tend to be, I supposed.
I picked Rt. 2 and used Raticate, Nidoking, Mr. Mime and Pidgeot.
Raticate and Mr. Mime were by far the most useful, being my default physical / special attackers, (Mr. Mime more than Raticate, as seen by the final levels), Nidoking was useful in a couple of situations (but not as much as I'd like it to) and Pidgeot was pretty much trash. The only reason it was there was because the rules say I need to have 4 Pokémon.
