    Because the first three are directly calculable, I wrote a small program to look for cases where you'd get three of the same Pokemon. Some of the more interesting ones I found:

    If you're born on January 3rd, 2005 and are playing RSE or ORAS, you're required to use three Swamperts.

    If you were born on October 20th, 2010 and playing Gen II games, you have to use three Cleffa. I'm so sorry.

    June 24th, 1966 gets you three Happiny if you're playing DPPt.

    Name: Obsideon
    Game: Black
    Team: Simipour, Alomoloma, Pidove (evolving to it's last form), Umbreon, Crygonal and whatever I catch on the route closest to the number 1.
    Birthdate is 20th January 2001!
    Really hope I did this right and can participate!

    Sorry for taking so long to update was having to much fun playing the game.

    Team:
    Patrat
    lvl: 6
    Gender: female
    Item: none
    Nature: mild
    Ability: keen eye
    Moves: tackle, leer
    Galewing(Pidove)
    Lvl: 4
    Gender: Female
    Nature: Docile
    Ability: big pecks
    moves: gust, leer, quick attack
    Item: none
    Panpour
    Lvl: 6
    Gender: male
    nature: jolly
    ability: gluttony
    moves: water gun, lick, fury swipes
    item: none

    Picked snivy so as to get panpour at striaton city. Went to route 1 and caught a patrat then went to the next town and boxed snivy. Battled and beat N with patrat (3v1 lol) continued on to striaton city and caught pidove along the way. Went threw the dream yard and lost to the second trainer there and came back with potions and beat her. Received panpour from trainer and then went back to striaton and beat chili with panpour. Saved the game and crashed.

    So I have somehow managed to beat the elite four in one go only 3 srs and that was the psychic e4. And now I am grinding for N fight. I need my last pokemon and forgot that I can't get eevee until after I beat the game so can I ask for a different Pokemon this one will be Hydreigon?

    • So I completely forgot to do a starting sign up post for this when I first set it up, but I've just completed the challenge:

    Username - Pebblycone
    Game - Pokemon Ruby
    Pokemon Team -
    1. Skarmory
    2. Shiftry
    3. Weezing
    4. Walrein
    5. Claydol
    6. Camerupt

    This was a pretty fun first challenge for me, it allowed to use a pretty different set of pokemon then what I normally use. I think I might do this challenge for Firered as well in the future :)

    • Oooooooh I like the idea behind this challenge! I will be giving this one a try.

    Name: Rin_K-Rogue
    Game: Emerald
    Pokemon Team: My DOB is July 10th '96 so that gives me:
    1. Sandslash
    2. Kirlia (I will be choosing to evolve it)
    3. Zubat (Again, I will be evolving it)
    4. Magcargo
    5. Going by Dex Colour, Armaldo is Grey, so I will be picking Armaldo
    6. Route 107

    I am very happy with this team. Alot of good mons here. When I catch the Ralts, I will have to use my starter to switch train it to level 6, seeing as it will only know growl upon capture.
