Enjoy! I'll be updating again soon - recently I've been concentrating on my Pearl Nuzlocke run but I've had a bad day on that so I'll probably move back to this Challenge for a while.
 
Update 9:

Just a quick update, like I say I've been playing my Pearl Nuzlocke run recently. I played my Ones that Got Away Challenge a bit earlier though, and this is what I did.

I moved West from Celadon down Cycling Road, clearing out all the trainers. When I hit Fuschia City I headed straight for the Gym and kicked Janine's arse, using Girafarig and (for comedy value) Toxicroak, despite his moves' ineffectiveness. I then headed East back up towards Lavender to take on the trainers there and even out my team's levels.

Eh, I think I might try this challenge.

Game: Emerald
List of Pokemon that got away:

Number required: 6
Any specific requirements: Vary the types, and don't have most of them caught near the end of the game, since I can't trade any in.

Doh! I just realized that I can't get duskull without hacking, abd even if I do cheat, I can't evolve it without the national dex. Could I have another?

Specific requirements: Okay a pretty long list actually (even had to cull some more!) but at least a Surfer and a Flier would be good. A variety of types would also be more interesting

You can take... Crawdaunt, Zangoose, Xatu, Abomasnow, Nidoqueen and Forretress. Have fun! Added you to the Challengers list.
 
Well, I don't have enough time to make a super long update, so I'm gonna make things abridged-ish.

Oops, forgot to update. You know how this is going to go if I fail to remember the first update XD. So, I got a Turtwig, but imediantly dumped it when I got a Bidoof. I got to Jubelife, beat my rival, evolved Bidoof, beat Roark, got to Floramroma, beat team dorks out of the Valley Windworks, got to Eterna (Caught a Buizel on the way), traded said Buizel to the kid for a Chatot, grinded Chatot, beat Gardaina, beat team dorks AGAIN, I caught a Chingling, trained it a little, and I'm now trying to find a Cheriubi. Oh, and thanks to Chatter, my Chatot now sounds like a MissingNo.
