I've got another update for my Pokemon X ground run. I now have four badges and am just starting the Power Plant mission. My dice role at the beginning for my starter turned out to be a bit of bad luck, as Calem ended up with Froakie. My first time facing his Frogadier ended in a complete wipe of my team thanks to a badly timed critical hit on my Krokorok. I beat him easily the second time though. He didn't even use any water moves that time. Anyway, my team has switched up a bit, and here they are now.

I'm still going strong with this first encounter female ratio. Every single ground-type I've run in to is still female, with the exception of Golett of course. I have Diggersby, Dugtrio, Onyx, and Gible waiting in the box if I ever need them too. Also, I changed Skullamy's nickname to Skullvia, and my Onyx is now Barda.

Fire Red 0/8, Soul Silver 0/8, Emerald 8/8, Platinum 0/8, White 2/8, X 4/8, Sun 0/4
 
I would like my SU to be imported from the old thread. IIRC, I finished Grass Ultimate. :) and I am currently doing monotype flying and have finished everything except Black. I would like Moon be added to the list. :)

Hello, I just wanted to make an announcement, I'm changing White 2 to just White. The reason for this is that I really want a seismitoad, and it's post game exclusive.

If a Pokemon is in the Pokedex, but is only obtainable post-game, you can trade/hack it in. :)

Rule #5 applies to any Pokemon only available in the post-game or not at all, but are still in the Regional Dex, which are: (also incluing all of evo line)
- G/S/C: Anything only available in Kanto/Mt. Silver (i.e. Houndour, Misdreavus, etc.) Same applies to HG/SS, but much more limited due to Safari Zone. More detailed list is coming at some point
- R/S/E/OR/AS: Beldum
- B2/W2: Archen, Tirtouga, Tympole, Munna, Durant, Heatmor, Cyrogonal, Stunfisk, Larvitar, Croagunk, Carnivine, Tropius, Yanma, Lickitung, Igglybuff, Slakoth, Corphish
- S/M: Scyther, Emolga, Riolu

However, I'm playing on an emulator, and I have no idea how to hack it in on an emulator, especially since I want to keep my starter (and not replace it with Tympole)
 
I feel I should mention that I've been very slowly updating this, and once I'm done I'll try to stick to a weekly schedule. So if you don't see your username in the update list, just be patient, I'll get to it.

And an update for myself.
Sun - Dragon Monotype

I traded in a Drampa egg at the beginning, and just solo'd with him until I beat Hala.
Today just also happens to be Tuesday, so I used Island scan to get Deino, and I'll be doing tomorrow as well to get Horsea.

I have so far beaten Lana's Trial, my team as of now:
Drampa Lv.22
Deino Lv.23

I can't post movesets because I don't have my 3DS on hand, but I'll be sure to get them for my next update.

- Got to Akala Island
- Caught a Poliwag on Brooklet Hill
- Defeated totem Wishiwashi
- Caught a Goldeen on Brooklet Hill
- Defeated totem Salazzle
- So when I defeated Salazzle, I immediatly started to get the fear sweats. If I don't overlevel or get something good against it, I am getting Fucked. So I came up with the great idea: Why not both? I caught a Wimpod and leveled everyone to Lvl 30 (Yes, this is how anxious I was). Wimpod evolved to Golisopod, and Poliwag to Poliwhirl. I used my waterstone to make it Poliwrath.
- Defeated totem Lurantis with ease thanks to Golisopod.
- Defeated Olivia

On my way to Po Town, last saved right in front of Ula'ula Meadow.

I had a fainted Butterfree at the front of my team so I could increase the chances of Horsea having a Dragon Scale, and it was quick as the second one had it. I also farmed a Dragon Fang from Bagon for obvious reasons.
I stopped using Drampa and Deino once I got Axew, as they were somewhat lacking compared to Kingdra, and later caught Turtonator and Gabite. I was also pleasantly surprised that Turtonator can learn Charge Beam. :D
My last two members are going to be the obvious ones, Alolan Exeggutor and Kommo-o, but it sucks that I have to wait until the last Island for these.

So finally, here's my team up to this point:
