@DaReaper: If you feel it's necessary, you may catch another vulpix and train it, but you must release (or at least box) the other one

@Xenite:
Froslass

Gliscor

Empoleon

Good Luck! ^_^ And I hope you have fun with your first challenge!

 

[Xenite]

VERY happy with that - and my all-time favourite starter too! Gonna be a fun challenge!


As a side note, I've just loaded up my game (haven't played in a LONG while) and there's a save on there that I REALLY don't recognise (I don't even know anyone called Brad...). Somehow I've magically acquired a game cartridge which isn't my own.. Oops. Lol, no idea where mine is though haha!

If you can't trade to get Golem, that's fine. If you're using a hack, you can change it so you can get it without a trade. Good Luck! C:

Awesome! I think I am going to actually change my game to just Black rather than Black 2.

 

[CelticsPhan]

I'm going to post my final *mandatory* update for this challenge on FireRed.

Spoiler:

-Got through Rocket Hideout. Note that my Raichu and Golem are pretty overleveled at this point.
-Crushed Giovanni with Golem.
-Went back to Lavender Town for the Pokemon Tower.

I skip Erika for a while, my team has a significant weakness to Grass types.

RIVAL FIGHT #4 (Pokemon Tower)
-Raichu beats Gary pretty handily.

-I defeat the rest of the Rockets and get the Poke Flute.
-Awake Snorlax in Celadon and go through Cycling Road.

-Now in Fuchsia City, I head for the Safari Zone to get Surf and Strength.
-Go to Saffron again to win at the Fighting Dojo
-I go into Silph Co to defeat TR again there.
-Fight ALL the Rockets. Not hard.

RIVAL FIGHT #5 (Silph Co/Saffron City)
-Raichu takes out his Pidgeot, Gyarados and Blastoise, Golem finishes the rest.

-Golem finishes Giovanni with Brick Break/Earthquake.
-Now a good~10 levels above Erika, I decide to fight her now.

ERIKA (Badge #4)
-Raichu's Stength easily defeats her Pokemon.

Now it's time to fight Koga!

KOGA (Badge #5)
-Golem's resistance to Poison was helpful here.
-Solo'd with Golem and won.

-With Surf, I could now catch my Tentacool, Jelly.
-[Grinding Intensifies]
-Get each to Lv.50's

-Decide to fight Sabrina now

SABRINA (Badge #6)
-Her Alakazam hits hard when it's not using stupid moves.
-Anyway, I use Golem to defeat her,

-Surf to Cinnabar Island, go through Pokemon Mansion

BLAINE (Badge #7)
-Never hard. Ever. Golem and Tentacruel beat his Pokemon untouched.

-Back to Veridian to fight Giovanni

GIOVANNI (Badge #8)
-Golem and Tentacruel again defeat this Gym.

RIVAL FIGHT #6 (Pokemon League 2)
-He's easy too, Raichu and Tentacruel do a lot of work.

-Victory Road.

LORELEI
-Raichu beats her with TBolt.

BRUNO
-Tentacruel for Onix and Raichu for everything else.

AGATHA
-Golem and Tentacruel defeat her Ghosts.

LANCE
-Tentacruel's Ice Beam and Raichu's TBolt were clutch here.

CHAMPION GARY
-Raichu defeats Pidgeot, Gyarados, Exeggutor and Blastoise.
-Golem and Tentacruel finish the rest!
WINNER

I did the optional challenge to rematch the Elite Four by doing the Sevii Islands quest. I'll post that update soon.

Final Final Update for my FireRed challenge. Also, I'd love a Userbar.

Spoiler:

-I finished the first quest in the Sevii Islands after beating Blaine.
-Needed the National Dex to finish the quests, so I had to catch about 50 Pokemon. Boring.
-Fighting all the trainers here on the Islands to ensure my victory over the E4 Round 2

-Went through Waterfall Cave
-Got Ruby
-Defeat Rockets at their Five Island Hideout, got Sapphire

Just wanted to say that the Sevii Islands aren't a bad postgame. Good attempt to make up for the lack of postgame in RBY. I enjoyed it somewhat.

-Brought the two jewels back to Celio, linking up Kanto and Hoenn. Now for the rematch.

LORELEI
-I noticed that she packed a Piloswine this time, so Raichu can't sweep again.
However, Raichu took care of everything else.

BRUNO
-Tentacruel solo'd this one. Resists Fighting and and those Onix's.

AGATHA
-Actually pretty hard. Her Gengars outspeed all three of my Pokemon.
-Thunder Wave was useful as ever here, I even got her Gengars to be unable to attack a few times.

LANCE
-Raichu to the Gyarados, Tentacruel to the Dragons. He has a Kingdra now, which was a bit hard to defeat with Raichu and Tentacruel.

CHAMPION GARY
-Send in Raichu expecting Pidgeot. Nope, Heracross.
-Earthquake was a massive pain this fight! All three of my Pokemon are weak to Ground.
-His Exeggutor was tough too. Psychic'd my Tenta and Giga Drained my Golem.
-I used no less than 20 Revives and Full Restores fighting the E4 and Champ.

My strategy was just timing when to Revive what Pokemon, and hoping his Pokemon used a move that mine can survive. Then, I Restored and Revived the others.

Completely out of Revives, My Raichu had 3 Pokemon left to beat.

-Blastoise. Tough moves, but I could beat it.
-Alakazam. Survived a Psychic and I got a Crit.
-Tyranitar. Lucky as ever right here! Thunder Wave'd and got TTar to flinch every time. Thunderbolt for the win!

Tough set of fights right there. My Pokemon's weaknesses were pinpointed by almost all of the Elite Four and Gary's Pokemon.

Final Info:

Colorado(Golem) Lv.77 Naive nature
Earthquake/Rock Blast/Brick Break/ Strength

Zap (Raichu) Lv.77 Hardy nature
Thunderbolt/Thunder Wave/ Strength/Iron Tail

Jelly (Tentacruel) Lv.77 Gentle nature
Toxic/Giga Drain/Surf/ Ice Beam

Thanks for reading! This chalenge was pretty fun.
