I thought that Gliscor could fly O.o Have tropious instead than :o
 
Sorry for posting a lot later than I said I was going to, been having PC issues and I think I need to seriously think of getting a new one, too many BSoD's.

Named myself Cecil, and my rival Hugh.
Started my Journey with Snivy.
Made my way to Floccesy town, and caught a Modest natured Lotad on Route 20 and named him Manny. His Ability is Rain Dish, and he knows Astonish, growl, Absorb, and
Nature Power. Trained lotad up to level 13 on route 20, and he learned Water gun at level 9 and Leech Seed at level 13 in which I replaced Astonish and Growl.
I made my way to Floccesy Ranch, and battled my rival Hugh who battled using Tailow and Tepig, the Tailow gave me problems with his peck, Tepig wasn't too hard
but a few Water Guns and leech seed and he was down. Made my way through Floccesy Ranch and found the Herdier. Manny evolved into a Lombre on the way to
find Herdier.

I went back to Floccesy town to meet up with Alder, and battled the 2 School Children. I received the Medal Box, and headed back to Aspertia city to take on
Cheren. Before I cahllenged Cheren I trained Manny up until level 17, where he learned Water Pulse in which I made him forget Water Gun. I beat cheren's pokemon
with a combonation of Nature power(Turned into tri attack) Leech seed and Water Pulse, and he awarded me the Basic Badge, and TM 83 Work up.

My next stop will be Virbank city, to take on the 2nd gym and also get my 2nd Pokemon Croagunk. I went into Virbank Complex and caught an Adamant(Woohoo)
Shiny Croagunk and named her Venus. Trained both Venus and Manny in the Virbank Complex to level 20 using audino in the shaking grass to take on the next gym.

Roxie's Gym I completed with just Venus, and she barely pulled through against Roxie's Koffing using Incenrate, but 4 Faint attacks and Koffing was down. Roxie
lead with trubbish setting up toxic spikes probably with the idea to poison my Pokemon and then venoshock them for the double base damage, so I just kept venus
in and chipped away with faint attack and healing when necessary. I was lucky and got level 22 on Roxie's Koffing and learned revenge, and it only took 2 to take down
her Croagunk. Roxie's Whirlipede was easily the hardest, and I only just beat it with a clutch crit with faint attack. With the Victory I earned the Toxic badge and
TM09 Venoshock.

Sign up for ALL the challenges! And then probably never complete them. There are a lot of pokémon I never even considered using since I just stick to what I know most of the time, so this challenge is perfect for me!

Update 1

Screenshots:
Spoiler:

God, this took forever to set up, I must have tried at least 3 times. I eventually managed to actually do it though, so go me!
(Team summary sometime later maybe)
 
Due to unfortunate events and stupid computer stuff, i cannot gen into a Platinum ROM. I am, however, able to gen into 3rd games and since my selected team of choice is all 3rd gen and down, I will be able to play it in LeafGreen!

EDIT: of course, more computer crap with OpenEmu. Now I cannot get the evolutions for the pokemon outside the national dex because VBA-M is dumb :/. I will have to postpone this until I have figured something out.

Update 2
This game hates me.
Spoiler:

It'd be easier to count the things that didn't go wrong in this update, seriously. From me getting 1HKO critted TWICE by N, to Arm Thrust hitting twice 80% of the time to even getting into a random battle one step away from the rustling grass. Yeah, that happened twice in a row and then I had to run around like an idiot for ten minutes before another Audino showed up.
