    Game:Black
    Team:
    Brain: Tepig
    Spine:Petil

    Yeah I'm aware a bunch of my Pokemon are late in the game, but I generally don't switch pokemon nor use items. the inability to run might get a bit annoying but oh well. I'm excited for the challenge!

    Welcome to the challenge! Added.

    Well, I don't really know what would happen. Just soft reset for it. (unless it kills one of your pokes while you're trying to catch it) And you always have two snorlaxes to try and catch! :D

    I'm sad to say, I failed this challenge, Ivysaur(my brain) fainted in the battle with Gary on the S.S. Anne.

    I might try this again in the future, but for now, I'm going to focus on some other challenges. I hope everyone has better luck than I did.

  • Hm. This looks really interesting.

    Name: toasterr

    Game: Emerald

    Team:
    Brain: Skarmory
    Spinal Cord: Blaziken
    Left Leg: Manectric
    Right Leg: Tentacruel
    Left Arm: Breloom
    Right Arm: Sableye
    Optional Rules: 2 and 4. 3 seems like it would murder me. Parahax is way too common :(

    lol, implying sableye won't become useless between Norman and Winona.
    It is the easy button for Brawly, though.

    Hopefully the "first catch only" rule doesn't count, or else the trollbears will effectively kill my team before it gets a chance to live.

    I'll start this today! :)
