I'd like to begin an Ultimate Monotype Flying challenge. I'll go R>S>Sa>D.

 

[Elric of Grans]

Thanks. I have taken a look at type coverage and, TMs willing, a Psychic team should be able to manage. I have decided to give it a go.

Ultimate Flying Monotype Challenge
Update #3​

Reached Vermillion City and explored around.
Exited east and battled some of the trainers and did some grinding.
Healed my Pokémon and boareded the S.S Anne.
Battled ALL the trainers, got ALL the items and battled my rival Gary on the S.S. Anne, obtained HM01 Cut and disembarked off the S.S. Anne.
Healed up my Pokémon and went to take on Vermillion City Gym
Battled the trainers in there and solved the puzzle, onto LT. Surge!
Had some trouble with him considering he has the advantage over type, Flying being weak to Electric but after a few hard hits I managed to defeat LT. Surge but only by a flash.
Obtained the Thunder Badge & TM26 (Thunderbolt... doing a Flying Monotype) anyway, onto Celadon City!​

Tails/Fearow - Lv. 27​

Quick update: I gave up getting a Wooper. I'll just do this with the same team as last time. Maybe add a Dugtrio or something cool like Gligar. Beat the Sprout Tower and made it all the way to Azelea Town. About to go talk to Kurt about this Rocket problem.

Why didn't you get Phanpy? He's available before the first gym in crystal.

 

[kaorusquee]

Just beat Brock in Pewter City in Yellow. Current team member is Pikachu (Piika) on level 15. Knows:

Quick Attack
Thundershock
Tail Whip
Double Team

He is?! Well, I guess you learn something new everyday! /goes to check where

 

[kaorusquee]

Forgot to post last two gym challenges, sorry. Beat Misty and Lt. Surge, have just barely set foot in Celadon City.
Current team:

Pikachu (Piika) Lv. 40
-- Thunderbolt
-- Quick Attack
-- Body Slam
-- Double Team

Also have on hand, but am not using, Charmander (HM slave 1- currently knows Cut) and Squirtle (HM slave 2). Will go pick up Eevee, evolve and train it some, them take on the Celadon gym.

 

[mikpeters]

I'm going to try a UMC with Water type.
Starting with Blue, and progressing on from there
Updates might be a little slow since I'm doing a solo run challenge and playing Black at the same time.
Wish me look Dudes :D

Final Update for Flying UMC!

Final Pearl Update! Flying UMC Done!

Started in Sunnyshore City.

Spoiler:

- Volkner:

- After surfing to Victory Road, I did EV training first, then got Earthquake and taught it to Claw, taught Cross Poison to Shadow, and had Hawkeye forget Fly for Brave Bird.
- Made it through Victory Road and taught Stone Edge to Claw (forgot Strength).
- The final battle with Hal was next:

- Then it was time for the final Elite Four Challenge:

Team effort here. I still had Drifter in reserve I think.

Claw was the key here. Although no Ground moves can be used here, Sandstorm helped kill all of my team members (except Claw), and then Claw was able to get a Swords Dance, then OHKOed Hippowden with Earthquake for the win.

- Used all my Rare Candies here to raise my team a couple levels each.

Claw set up 3 Sword Dances on Rapidash, then swept. Drifblim's Aftermath killed Claw, leading to my first Elite Four win without a Pokemon out. Lol.

I reset here once out of frustration because Boss got critted with a Thunderbolt from Mr. Mime when he had several Defend Orders set up. The second time, I didn't bother with the setup, and contributions from Boss (Attack Order) and Hawkeye finishing off Bronzong with Close Combat led to an successful win.

During this battle, I set up Boss with 6 Defend Orders, and after taking out Milotic and Gastrodon, she ended up getting Garchomp and Lucario to Struggle to death with the help of a few PP restoring items on Boss and her Pressure ability. Boss almost got Spiritomb (who switched out earlier) as well, but Embargo forced Boss to Struggle to death as well, taking Spiritomb with her. Roserade took out Hawkeye with a Sludge Bomb OHKO, then Shadow Flew (lol) Roserade to death for the win!!!

[fatalxfearz]

Sorry for the inactivity and not posting updates on my old monotype challenges.
I cancelled the Ultimate Challenge idea, instead I'm going to start beating every region with every type, and then move onto the next region.
I've already finished my fire on Kanto, with an ending team of Charizard and Flareon.*I forgot levels and movesets it was a while ago sorry*
I will be starting my water right now and I'll hopefully be able to post progress either later on tonight or tommorow.

 

[myrrhman]

This challenge is the 10th on the first page. Unacceptable. Let me help by starting a Steel Sapphire.

Edit 1: Chose Mudkip, beat Roxanne, got to Brawly with an Aron. At first I was like "Oshi- what am I going to do?" But then I was like "Oh yeah, I can skip him." Going on to Wattson.

Lol. I'm thinking about starting another monotype myself, by man I have other ones to do. I still can't really believe that my flying ultimate one is over, the last game took forever (I officially hate sinnoh now, even Hoenn is better). I may try to do something like an ultimate...Normal...maybe. Idk. we'll see. It won't be for a while, though.

 

[myrrhman]

Join the club. There were like five people in the CI&D (myself included) that were complaining about how long sinnoh took.

Oh yeah, update: I skipped Brawly, beat Wattson, uh, got my team worked out (Aggron, Aggron, Metagross, Skarmory), and now I'm going through the Fiery Path.

I dont mind sinnoh. i did on my flying run, but on water and ground it went fairly fast, especially my ground run.

also, how are you gonna get Metagross? last i checked you can't get beldum until after the elite four, i may be wrong though.

Anyways, in my fighting UMC...

One down, four to go.

Final Team:

Primeape (Lvl 51)

Poliwrath was my MVP. Loved that guy ever since the johto leg of my water run.
Speaking of Johto, its time for crystal.

And i have literally spent 2 hours looking for a heracross. poliwhirls head must be KILLING him. Okay, thats it i am DONE for the night. If anyone knows where the Heracross are, let me know. Finding a shiny is easier than this...

Current Team:

Poliwhirl (lvl 26)

[myrrhman]

Dammit, you're right. Don't know why I thought you got Beldum at the same time as Dive. Well, time to rework my team...

And I know for a fact you can catch Heracross between Lake of Rage and Mahogany, also between New Bark and Cherrygrove. Try New Bark to Cherrygrove.

 

[Ataraxia]

Wow I suck with deadlines... ANYWHO.
Final Team (Yellow/Poison/UMC)

Acidity

Level 47
Earthquake
Rock Slide
Poison Sting
Strength


Toxicity

Level 45
Body Slam
Poison Sting
Ice Beam
Thunder Bolt


Venom Wing

Level 47
Psybeam
Double Team
Poison Powder
Tackle

Poison Ivy

Level 47
Body Slam
Razor Leaf
Toxic
Solarbeam


Pentapox

Level 47
Surf
Poison Sting
Barrier
Blizzard

And there you have it, the team that conquered Kanto! :)

Spoiler:

Weary from his travels and the battles he'd fought; Acidity made his way home to Pallet Town. As he walked and his faithful pokemon slept, he remembered his journeys through the Kanto region. He remembered Brock's face when he, Acidity and Toxicity the pair of Nidoran he'd met on his tenth birthday deftly mopped the floor with his 'rock-hard pokemon'. He remembered when his and the Bulbasaur's, which would later become PoisonIvy, eyes connected. He remembered finding the Venonat which he had no idea could be found in the area on Cerulean Cape, and named him VenomWing, for his evolution.
Acidity trudged through the sleeping city of Viridian. He hadn't realised his conquest of the Elite 4 had taken so long, but he didn't mind. The city, even bathed in the faint glow of the moon, shone green. His mind was cast to Giovanni and Team Rocket. Would they really disband simply because he'd gotten in the way of their plans so many times? Acidity found it unlikely but he was the strongest trainer in Kanto now, he could send them packing if necessary.
The tired champion made his way through Route 1 uneventfully, avoiding disturbing the families of Rattata and Pidgey, his mind set on returning home and telling his mother all about his adventure from when he last spoke to her, and indeed of his new status... And who could forget; of the prospect of journeying to the Johto region, for an entirely new adventure...

Johto Saga

Update 0.5

• Named myself Acidity (of course) and went through the beginning sequences, getting a starter and going to Mr.Pokemon and back.
• Sharked in Acidity and Toxicity (NidoranM and NidoranF) as well as two Moon Stones for future use. (you can get them in Mt Moon but that's ages away, I'll try not to use them until I have to though, I might make it there without using the sharked ones)
• Trained the Nido-duo both to level 8, having them learn Horn Attack (Acidity) and Scratch (Toxicity) and reached Violet City.

Not much of an update I know but, 'Real Life' calls... :( Hopefully I'll get more done today but I think since my last post was... um... a long time ago, I dunno.

The people that read my posts will know that I'm scarily inactive most of the time and my posts are few and far between. I'm sure you're used to it by now. :P

 

[kaorusquee]

Just beat Sabrina in Saffron City. Current team:

Pikachu (Piika) Lv. 46
-- Thunderbolt
-- Submission
-- Body Slam
-- Double Team

Jolteon (Thunders) Lv. 47
-- Pin Missile
-- Double Kick
-- Take Down
-- Quick Attack

And yes, I still have my two HM slaves. They are both still on level 10. Sabrina was pretty easy thanks to Jolteon's Pin Missile, but I still had to switch out once to Pikachu and revive Jolteon. Now, I'm currently on Route 13, on my way to Fuschia City.
