1st Update Pokemon Black Dark Challenge

Ultimate Fire Monotype Challenge
Game: Y
Badges: 2

After rejecting Charmander at the professor's lab in Lumiose City, I went on to more quiet surroundings - the big city never really did it for me, anyway. Much to my dismay, though, Camphrier Town was super boring, so I left there and went to the Parfum Palace with that little girl who doesn't shut up. We chased a Furfrou around a garden, until its owner showed up and thanked us for catching Pokémon for him. He then put up a display of fireworks for me and the girl, and the girl got all giddy and weird. 2/10, would not watch fireworks with again.
Anyway, I got someone to trade me a level 1 Houndour from their X version, as Houndour is exclusive to Pokémon X. But not before I made it all the way to Ambrette Town and went looking for fossils in Glittering Cave. After grinding Houndour up a bit, it evolved! And then I moved on to Cyllage City, where before challenging the Gym Leader, I went ahead and caught myself an Eevee, evolved it straight away with a Fire Stone I found somewhere outside Glittering Cave, trained it up a bit and headed for the Gym.

The Gym itself was tough, as I don't have a lot of coverage yet. And I'm not sure I'll have great coverage against Rock-types, even by the end of this challenge. We did make it to the Gym Leader, though, where Flareon and Braixen saved my ass and won us that badge.

Here's my team so far:

Update on my Ultimate Ground Monotype challenge through FireRed, this will be pretty short.

-Trained Rhyhorn from 25 to 46, evolved into Rhydon.
-Cleared routes 15, 14, 13 and the southern half of route 12.
-Got Surf and Strength
-Challenged Koga, besides the fact half of his gym is in fact Psychic and he throws Toxic around a lot, the battle went smoothly. It was quite an intoxicating battle.

A pretty long update on my ground monotype challenge through Firered

-Cleared routes 19 and 20
-Beat the Fighting Dojo with my mighty Pokemon of dirt.
-Entered Silph Co. and saved the day, battled my rival and giovanni, won both battles no problem.
-Battled Sabrina and won, was an easy fight due to her paper thin defenses on some Pokemon. I guess she didn't see me winning.
-Cleared route 21
-Reached Cinnabar, cleared the Pokemon Mansion (that music is creepy) and got the key which Blaine lovingly hid deep in here. Thanks Blaine, really.
Challenged Blaine, had some difficulty with intimidating and his ninetales, but afterwards I managed to persevere and win. He's the one who needs a burn heal now.
-Gets accosted by Bill and dragged off to one island.

I fought Drayden last night. I surprisingly didn't have a whole lot of trouble with him. I was even more surprised when my Klang was able to beat his Haxorus.

The Ultimate Steel Monotype Challenge: White Version 2
8/8

I made it to Humilau, and defeated Marlon, the Gym Leader with the strangest name. I actually only barely pulled it off with only one member of my team left by the end, and it had only 5 HP. And was burnt. But I did it! But I still have a ways to go before the Elite 4. I have to defeat Team Plasma next.

Final update: Dark monotype SS

After days of grinding, whining, and short hiatus, I finally made it past Red. Luke suggested Protect and I was like, TIME TO DOWN PILLS so it was over to Goldenrod I went. I had to take out Red's Pikachu with Tyranitar since none of my other 'mon would be able to OHKO it (believe me, it was badly needed). Next was Blastoise sent out. I found out the hard way earlier that it carried Focus Blast, which badly marred my earlier Red runs. So this time I was fully stocked with X-items. Out went Crawdawnt and he started popping a lot of X. Sp Def. That let me stall out his Focus Blast and I was able to take advantage of his ineffective attacks to boost up Crawdawnt as much as I could before Blastoise was KO'd by Sandstorm. At that point, it was a sweep and nothing left to say other than I HATE RED!

The Ultimate Steel Monotype Challenge: White Version 2
8/8 + Ghetsis

I defeated White Kyurem and Ghetsis just a moment ago. Whote Kyurem was pretty easy, since my team is super effective to it. Ghetsis on the other hand, was a real pain in my arse. Seismitoad and Eelektross proved the toughest opponents of the battle, asn I was really lacking in moves that would be effective to them.

I'm on my way to the E4 now. Not gonna post my team for this one. Final team will come at the end of the challenge.
 
Poison Monotype - FireRed

Last stop of the day was Victory Road and the E4. I had a wee bit of trouble getting through Victory Road because I forgot to stock up on healing items. Barely had enough to get through. Phew! I didn't have any trouble with the E4 until I reached Blue because the bugger had two psychic types on him. I had to spend a number of revives on Nidoking so that I could take out both Alakazam and Exeggutor with Megahorn. Smooth sailing the rest of the way!

Here's the final update on my Electric monotype in Emerald!
After deleting Team Magma and Aqua at their respective hideouts, I made my way to Mossdeep City. In order to battle the twins I decided to go catch a Plusle (that would invariably faint) so Manectric could solo against the Tate and Liza. The battle was pretty difficult, having to strategize with two against one. After getting the 7th badge from them, I was finally able to dive so I went underwater and caught my second and final team member, Chinchou! I spent the next while training it up to Manectric's level (25 levels!), evolving it along the way. Once that was over, I moved along with the story, defeating Team Aqua at Seafloor Cavern. I then was able to awaken Rayquaza, which allowed me to finally take on Juan, who was no match for my electric types! I then quickly traveled through Victory Road, defeating Wally along the way. Once I made it to the Elite Four, I adjusted some movesets and went straight into battle! Lanturn's Ice Beam primarily dealt with Sydney and, later, Drake, while Manectric's Thunderbolt took care of Phoebe and Glacia. To defeat Wallace, Manectric took care of pretty much everyone and Lanturn took care of Manectric's problems, namely Whiscash! And with that, FIN!
