Ultimate Monotype Challenge Thread

[WAILMERZ FOREVER]

OK, Electric update:
-Rock Tunnel. Yep, hard. But on the way...Magnemite-->Magneton! YAY!
-Changed my Pokemon's names to OnDahFrige and Sparx. You should know which is which.
-Went over to Celadon and got mehself an Eevee, whom I named Joltz. That wouldn't make much sense if I didn't buy a Thunderstone and evolve it into Vaporeon, now would it?! Well, I didn't do that--you know what I did. Went back and kicked all the trainer's butts I left alone with Thundershock, later Thunderbolt(because Magneton are made for Special in this game, and mine would be fine with just Thundershock)and with Thunderbolt came Double Kick.
-Went into the Game Corner and made the ROCKET run away like the girly-man he is. I went into the lower floors and killed everyone else. Taught Sparx Double-Edge.

Zat eez eet! Yep. Yeah...

Team Volt(now complete--Electrode is useless):

Sparx the Pikachu

Lv. 33
Moves: Thunderbolt, Double-Edge, Seismic Toss and Double Team

OnDahFrige the Magneton

Finally got some more time to play Ruby Normal.

Saw the Sub get captured, beat May in Lillycove, saw the sub get away in Magma's Hideout, and then this

Wasn't too hard. Audio 1 fainted, but landed a supersonic on Solrock (the first one missed). Jet 3 hit Lunatone with Steel Wing, and when I brought Dagger in, he Swords Danced twice before a Steel Wing and Crush Claw combo brought Solrock down. One badge to go!

Edit: Beat Maxie next to a snoozing Groudon, then beat said Groudon.

 

[hazard master]

Okay so I started up Ruby, got You Liek?, a female Mudkip, I beat Roxanne, Saved Peeko, Beat Brawly, Delivered the letter to Steven, Found the Cap'n.

Brendan was incredibly difficult(more so than usual), but after several tries I got the Crit that I needed to beat Grovyle.

I beat Wattson, made my way to fiery path and caught my team's newest member, Derp, the Male Numel.

Enter long boring grinding stages.

Update for Ultimate Monotype Challenge (Ground).

Final Update (#4) on Platinum.

• Surfed to Victory Road, then made my way through it.
• Beat Jacen, then took on the Elite Four.
• Beat the Elite Four and Cynthia to become Champion!

Screens:

Spoiler:

• When I took on the Elite Four, Atlas was at L55, Chomper and Sluggish were both at L56, and Scythe was at L57.
  
  
  
  
  Atlas beat down Yanmega and Vespiqueen, then fell to Scizor. Chomper used Fire Fang for Scizor, Earthquake for Drapion, and 2 Fire Fangs for Heracross.
  
  
  
  
  Atlas OHKOed Whiscash and 2HKOed Gliscor with Wood Hammer after healing, then Wood Hammered Golem as well, before falling to Rhyperior. Sluggish finished Him with Surf, then OHKOed Hippowden with Surf to win.
  
  
  
  
  Atlas OHKOed Houndoom and Flareon with Earthquake before falling to Rapidash's Flare Blitz. Chomper finished Rapidash and OHKOed Magmortar with Earthquake. I switched to Scythe when Infernape came out and avoided his Earthquake. Scythe then OHKOed Infernape with Aerial Ace thanks to Infernape's Flare Blitz recoil.
  
  
  
  
  Led with Sluggish, who 2HKOed Mr. Mime with Surf, then switched to Atlas to take Alakazam's Energy Ball. Atlas 2HKOed Alakazam with Crunch, then switched to Chomper when Espeon came out and 2HKOed him with Crunch. Bronzong took out Garchomp with Psychic after taking a Fire Fang, then Scythe was sent out. After X-Scissor failed to do much, Scythe was taken out by a couple Psychics while I healed Atlas. Atlas then took out Brongzong with 2 Crunches, then was able to 2HKO Gallade with Earthquake.
  
  
• My team was all at L57 at this point, so I used my 10 Rare Candies to bring Scythe and Chomper to L60 and Atlas and Sluggish to L59.
  
  
  
  
  I did lose once because I got flinched by Garchomp's Dragon Rush. Here's how the win went down:
  
  
  Spoiler:

  Scythe VS Spiritomb: Swords Dance, Dark Pulse, Swords Dance, Dark Pulse, Aerial Ace OHKO, Spiritomb fainted!
  Milotic: (burrowed underground), Surf (miss), Dig OHKO, Milotic fainted!
  Togekiss: Aerial Ace, Air Slash, Scythe fainted!
  Sluggish VS Togekiss: Full Restore (Togekiss), Ice Beam (critical hit!) OHKO, Togekiss fainted!

[DrOfAwsome]

I'd like to start a flying Mono on Heart Gold

 

[jdthebud]

Start of Ultimate Monotype Challenge #7.

Okay, I started a Grass Ultimate monotype a couple days ago, and I just finished Kanto on Red.

Name: Zane
Rival: Paul
Starter: Bulbasaur

Named Bulbasaur Planter, and after I beat brock easily with Vine Whip, I caught a Paras in Mt. Moon named Shroom.
Played through the game until I go to the Safari Zone, then caught Exeggcute there. Evolved him into Exeggutor with a Leaf Stone, and my team was set.

Gym/Rival Screens:

Spoiler:

Elite Four Screens:

Spoiler:

Exeggutor soloed with Mega Drain and Egg Bomb for Jynx.

Razor Leaf crit every time, all were OHKOs except for Machamp (2HKO).

Shroom beat Gengar, Arbok, and Haunter with Dig, Slashed Golbet, then fell to Gengar. Exeggutor Psychic'd him to win.

- Taught Shroom Hyper Beam here.

Shroom put Gyarados to sleep, then Sword Danced three times. Hyper Beam took out everyone with a OHKO. Healed the damage when needed, as Shroom is slow.

Shroom used the Spore/Sword Dance set up against Pidgeot, then beat Pidgeot, Alakazam, Exeggutor, and Gyarados with Hyper Beam and Rhydon with Dig before Charizard Fire Spinned Shroom away. Planter Toxic'd Charizard, then Charizard missed a couple times with Fire Blast and Fire Spin so Planter was able to survive.

So Kanto is down. Next up I will be using Silver, I guess, although it doesn't really matter. I plan on using Meganium, Jumpluff, and either Exeggutor or Parasect.

Team Zane (Final):

Shroom the Parasect - L54 -> Elite Four MVP
Moves: Hyper Beam, Spore, Swords Dance, Dig

Planter the Venusaur - L52 -> Kanto MVP
Moves: Body Slam, Toxic, Leech Seed, Razor Leaf

Exeggutor - L53
Moves: Egg Bomb, Hypnosis, Mega Drain, Psychic

HM Slaves: Dux/Farfetch'd (Cut, Fly) and Krabby (Surf, Strength)

[jdthebud]

Am i allowed to do just a solo run on pokemon red.....if not im just doing a fire trype run

There's a whole other thread for Solo Challenges, man. Do both!

 

[tragamm]

[Wasen]

I think I'll start with the Water challenge. I'm doing it with Firered since I can't find my Blue and I was about to start over Firered anyway.

 

[Professor_Zoom]

i guess i'll go for a normal-type non-ultimate challenge on FR. if it's fun enough, perhaps i'll expand it to an ultimate challenge.

On to Ruby!

 

[hazard master]

Okay so on Ruby I grinded Derp some then beat Team Magma at the volcano. I got to Lavaridge and beat the gym there. Once I got the Go-goggles I caught the Final member of my team: Mah Lady, a female Trapinch.
