Update #1 (wihout any images or links cuz I dont have 15 posts yet):
- Choose Mudkip as Starter pokemon, will have a nice life as a HM slave.
- Caught Mawile, Voltorb, Anorith, Cacnea and Bagon in Route 101 so I can play with my team from up the scratch.
- Caught Wingull on route 104 and got my team up to lvl7 there, I can start now :).
- Defeated Team Aqua Grunt easily with Bagon.
- Preparing Cacnea for the first gym, learning him Bullet Seed from the TM I got.

First Gym Battle:

Spoiler:

Geodude went down easily with 1 Bullet Seed from Cacnea, giving Cacnea 2 extra levels also hehe. I powered up with Growth twice first tho, he just used Defense Curl anyway.
Nosepass was one-hit ko'ed by Bullet Seed, that's what those 2 Growths were for ;).
Cacnea was rewarded with some more exp and learnt Leech Seed.

That was ridiculously easy but I didnt expect anything else.

MVP: Cacnea (although the others didnt even get a chance to prove themselves).

- Caught a Zigzagoon as a HM slave and learnt it Cut right away.
- Obtained the Devon Goods and saved Peeko.
- Off to Dewford
- Need to do some grinding; my team doesnt like fighting types and is pretty low leveled compared to Brawly's pokémon. I will have to rely on Wingull.

Second Gym Battle:

Spoiler:

Machop was trying to leave me no chance by powering up using Bulk Up so that he could KO all my Pokémon, I sttarted off wit Cacnea to use Leech Seed and then immediately switch to Wingull for a Supersonic and Wing Attack combination. Machop was dead before he could strike in his first Karate Chop, haha!
Makuhita had the same idea, so I countered with the same strategy, the Cacnea/Wingull combo proved to be devestating.

It seemed easy but I did have some luck, could have turned the other way around because my other Pokémon were probably not really gonna be of any use in this fight.

MVP: Wingull with Cacnea as a close second, I gotta admit I was lucky with Supersonic, both Machop and Makuhita got killed cuz of confusion and it prevented Brawly from using potions apparently.

Current Team:
Cacnea - Lvl 15: Does what grass-types does + Leech Seed gives him an extra dimension.
Wingull - Lvl 14: Water Gun, Supersonic and Wing Attack is a nice moveset at lvl 14, definitely one of the champs here so far.
Anorith - Lvl 13: Tank, good defense and offence, too bad his offensive options are limited to only Scratch so far
Voltorb - Lvl 12: Weak link, hoping that Sonicboom at lvl15 changes that.
Mawile - Lvl 12: Hasnt proven to be of much use so far, but then again her moveset isnt that great at low level, taught her Rock Tomb to compensate a bit, but I guess I'll just have to wait till higher levels.
Bagon - Lvl 12: He does pretty good but he doesnt have the extra drift yet to help me through hard battles.

You can use H if you want, as there is no U, so you can skip it.

 

[Ghostie]

Can I post updates yet? I'm not on the list yet, but I already started my challenge...

I'll go ahead and post just in case:
I got Bulbasaur.
I beat my rival's head in.
I beat all the trainers in Viridian Forest.
I beat Brock's head in.
I beat all the trainers leading up to the Pokemon Center, then I bought Magikarp for 500 before heading into Mt. Moon cave.
I went inside, had a heck of a time actually beating it. Seriously, it was very hard with just Magikarp and Ivysaur! Now I know why this is a challenge! XD
So, I had to use Escape Rope once so that I could buy some potions and finish that part.
Bulbasaur evolved into Ivysaur while I was going through.
I beat all the trainers available before going to challenge Misty (Including nugget bridge and trainer's leading up to Bill). I beat her too, and by then my Magikarp was at about level 18.
I beat all the trainers before Vermillion, and the ones on that little route to the right. Magikarp finally evolved into Gyrados.
Now I'm going to beat S.S. Anne and get Cut. I caught Diglett to teach Cut to once I get it.
Party Pokemon so far:
Plantosaur (Ivysaur): Lv. 26
Knows: Tackle, PoisonPowder, Leech Seed, and Vine Whip

Gyakasatsu (Gyrados): Lv. 24
Knows: Splash, Tackle, Bite, Bubblebeam

Phew, this is pretty fun!

 

[SpaceMadness]

Update #2:

- Caught a Nincade to be used as a Flash slave.
- Delivered the letter to Steven, taught Wingull Steel Wing.
- Off to Slateport.
- Settled things with Team Aqua at the Oceanic museum.

Rival fight:

Spoiler:

Wailmer: Easily countered by Cacnea, took the opportunity to get a few Growths in to power up while having Wailmer Leech Seeded. Bullet Seed provided the final blast.
Numel:Two Water Guns from Wingull did the trick.
Grovyle:I dont have a real grass counter yet so I went further with Wingull to kill it with Wing Attack, Grovyle used Pursuit to kill my Wingull tho. Cacnea was next up to Poison Sting the hell out of him, but again Pursuit proved to be a nasty attack. So his favourite attack is dark-based, means Mawile is up and yep she finishes that lizard!

- Arrived at Mauville City.
- Easily took care of Wally with Anorith.
- Time to do some grinding before taking on the 3rd gym.

 

[Ghostie]

Okayyy...I beat S.S. Anne. My rival (MIKE) was really easy to beat because I was way overlevelled.
I then got CUT and beat Lt. Surge's gym with Gyrados and Ivysaur.
I had to catch a Bellsprout to teach CUT to because Diglett can't learn it in this game. I caught Drowzee because Sprout can't learn Flash in this game.
Got Flash.
Then I got the Bike Voucher and got my bike. I rode over to Rock Tunnel, skipping as many trainers as I could along the way (I wanted to save them for Onix)
Went to the second floor, caught Onix (named IWARK) with a Great Ball. (S.S. Anne trash can!)
Went and battled trainers I skipped.
Now I've got this in my party:
Onix Lv. 22
Knows: Tackle, Screech, Bind, Rock Throw
Gyrados: Lv. 30
Knows: Dragon Rage, Tackle, Bite, Bubblebeam
Ivysaur: Lv. 30
Knows: Tackle, Poison Powder, Leech Seed, Razor Leaf

On to finish Rock Tunnel! I'm gettin' close to Haunter and Snorlax! <3

Update 2, Day 6​

I, N, E, F, F, A

A lot has happened since my last update, so sorry for the delay. Anyway, where I left off last time I was approaching Eterna City. I was really in quite a hurry to learn how to use Cut (I left unwatered berry trees and a honey tree behind in Floaroma and I didn't want to go through the forest to return), so I went at Gardenia in a hurry. It wasn't as easy as you might expect considering I had a Chimchar, because Smok (Trapinch) and Jackie (Nincada) were way behind and I needed to give them a try.
I swept through Eterna in a hurry without enjoying it as much as I could have, but oh well. xD I murdered Team Galactic and everyone on the cycling road without event and continued on to Hearthome City.
I had been waiting for Hearthome City because that's the place for an Eevee. I hurried to Bebe's house and got one. He was a male and I named him "Melavelta♪". After that I did everything I could to train Melavelta while avoiding Fantina like the plague (I don't like her xD). Eventually though I faced her, and smok had to take care of it almost singlehandedly since he has a Dark-type move (Bite) and was almost the only one with something that could hit a Ghost-type. It took me a few tries but it wasn't the hardest thing I've ever done~
After that I headed to Solaceon Town, in a huge hurry to evolve my Eevee (I made myself a promise to have Espeon before I faced Maylene) and to evolve smok because I am so impatient with Pokémon that evolve past level 30. xD On the way to Solaceon Town, before the second bridge, Jackie evolved into a swift, powerful Ninjask that has never failed to make me proud. He learned Double Team and Mind Reader at the same time.
After exploring the Solaceon Ruins and finding HM05 (Defog) and a Mind Plate, and subsequently exploring Lost Tower to train Smok and Melavelta, I had a potently long and boring trek to Veilstone City, picking up berries all along the way, and collecting the Fist Plate and Flame Plate. It was in Veilstone City that I first explored, second gave Eevee some Calcium and Carbos (partly for training, partly for happiness), and third levelled him up to 31 and successfully evolved him into an Espeon in one of my biggest Pokémon timecrunches ever. It was 1900, apparently early enough to be considered "day".
A whole lot of gambling I did earlier, although painful, earned me TM29 Psychic, which I promptly taught to my new Espeon.
I walked back into the center of Veilstone City, where I now stand.

I still have not evolved Smok. :c

Pokemon Platinum Team M.Y.S.T.I.C Update #3

After finding HM05 Defog in the Solaceon Ruins it was time to head north onto Route 210. But, before I even got to the Route, my egg began to hatch...Togepi was born! With my new team member in hand, I continued up Route 210 trying to get it as much experience as possible. After a day or two of training(I don't remember how long it's been since my last update) Togepi finally caught up in levels with the rest of the team and we were ready to hit Route 215. Finally after wondering for so long when it was going to happen, Golbat evolves into Crobat on Route 215 and I get the "C" team member covered. Got into Veilstone City but immediately went south to Route 214 to do some extra training before I take on the 4th gym. It wasn't long before I looked down and realized that Togepi had evolved into Togetic thanks to the Soothe Bell and a little help from the vitamins. Once I noticed I still had plenty of trainers left on Route 214 I decided to take a break and stop right here.

Update 3, Day 7
​

I, N, E, F, F, A

I finally evolved Smok. :D
This alone would be enough for me to merit its own full update, but seeing as even more has happened, I shall write a full report. Starting out in Veilstone City with Melavelta (Espeon) newly purple and velvety (Smok [Trapinch] not yet evolved at that point), I went up against Maylene. It wasn't as much fun as I had expected since
she only had one Pokémon that was weak to Psychic moves, so I didn't bother having the overlevelled Espeon participate all too much. Oh well, this means I can finally use Fly! :D
. . . Well, just as soon as I find it.
I came across my friend Lucas yelling stop thief at a Team Galactic Grunt who stole his PokéCalculator. What a jerk. ;-; So I teamed up with him to defeat two guys with amazing-coloured hair that I really must try some time, and of course we won. After sending Lucas on his way with his machinery back, I teamed up with my beautiful teammate, Agent Looker, and raided the warehouse for a suspiciously conveniently placed HM02 Fly. Yay! ^^ I taught it to an HM slave (Starly) for until Smok evolves and immediately went to go check on berries and catch a Bibarel as an HM slave (aboot time). I then came up with an idea to evolve Smok quickly, so I headed to the Western entrance of Wayward Cave, because I knew there were two things in particular there: TM26 Earthquake and a Rare Candy. Both for Smok. I explored the place, battling every other Pokémon with Melavelta (Smok holding an EXP. Share). It was tedious thanks to the occurrence of Pokémon encounters every time I was about to run up one of those bike ramps, but I was victorious in the end, and Smok levelled to 33, at which point I gave him two Rare Candies (one just obtained, the other I had had for a while). Finally, evolution. I am now the proud owner of a Vibrava, with a newly hugely expanded moveset. Victory~
After that I was quick to get out of dodge and hop to Pastoria City (uneventful), where I proceeded to do nothing. I was too busy enjoying the new perks of my Pokémon. :)

Sorry, no new plates or Pokémon in this update. :(

Update #3 on Sapphire:

After some grinding it was time for the...

3rd Gym Battle:

Spoiler:

Magnemite: I started off with Voltorb who made scraps out of Magnemite by simply spamming Sonicboom. Not sure what Magnemite was actually doing; hardly took the chance to hit Voltorb.
Voltorb: This was quite a surprise, I chose Anorith to deal with this guy and started off with a Mud Sport. Voltorb paralyzed Anorith, I just went with Metal Claw, but not even below half HP Voltorb decides to Selfdestruct, funny it hardly harmed my Anorith.
Magneton: Got lucky with this one, last turn Bagon ended up with 2 HP but happened to score a crit on Ember when Magneton was about half HP. Win!

- Taught Shock Wave to Wingull
- Got Mach Bike, Rock Smash (taught to Zigzagoon),...
- Beat Winstrates
- Arrived at Fallanbor Town
- Taught Dig to Anorith
- Visited Meteor Falls
- Got Strength


Team:

Anorith: Lv 26
Water Gun
Metal Claw
Dig
Scratch

Nice tank that finally got a decent moveset, I dont think Anorith has ever fainted in this run yet.


Voltorb:Lv 23
Charge
Tackle
Spark
Sonicboom

Sonicboom finally gave it the ability to take out foes, also happy he finally got his first electric move.


Mawile: Lv 24
Rock Tomb
Vicegrip
Fake Tears
Bite

Learning it Rock Tomb helped me to find some attacking purpose for her, but the low PP was a downer, good thing she learnt Vicegrip.


Wingull: Lv 24
Steel Wing
Water Gun
Shock Wave
Wing Attack

Having 4 different type moves really makes it a good contender, too bad he was useless last gym because of 4x weakness. About to evolve too.


Cacnea: Lv 23
Bullet Seed
Leech Seed
Poison Sting
Growth

Disappeared a bit to the background as pretty much everything that is weak to Grass is also weak to something else I got. Leech Seed is nice off course. Needs an extra good move tho.


Bagon: Lv 25
Headbutt
Ember
Bite
Rage

Was so happy he learnt Ember, as it is my only fire option at all for this team at the moment, and helped me out at 3rd Gym.


Team is rocking atm, I dont think I will need to do a lot of grinding anymore.

 

[Enigma]

Alright, finally updated everything. Please tell me if something is needed to be fixed.
