For the UMC do we haz to go in order *cries*. I dont like order.. >_>. Sooo... Ill start with Pearl, and then start from the beginning if thats okay.

Ill be doing an Electric UMC then <3.

Ill post an update later, or whenever..~

EDIT: I guess ill start from Gen I and go on.. Ill be doing Yellow, since theres like a nonexistent population of Electric types in Gen I besides Pikachu and Electabuzz and.. Magnemite? So, Pikachu,I CHOOSE YOU! Lol XD.

Don't forget about the best electric pokemon in the game until Electivire came out: Jolteon.

 

[Seeds Horizon]

I FORGOT ABOUT JOLTEON. Lol.

Anyway, heres my first update for Yellow

Progress Update #1: Yellow- First, second, and third gym badges, plus stole, er I mean... Got given a Pikachuuuu.

So, I started off the game by turning it on, then proceeded to stare at the screen and press various buttons... Oh, you dont want to hear that? Fiiiineeee.

Anyway, named myself.. Elect, for lulz. Talked to Oak, blah blah. Got Pikachu (How dare you take my Eevee Gaarryyyy) and then beat Garys Eevee so easy (Not really, had about 2 hp left..) and then went north.. Up into Viridian, tackling some Pidgeys on the way for some training. Went into the Mart, went back down south.. Took the PArcel to Oak, blah blah.

Got through Viridian Forest only fainting once (A personal record, might I add) and went into Pewter. This was and probably will always be the hardest part of the game for me...

As anyone who has ever played Yellow and at least gotten to this part.. You know why I nearly tore my hair out. It doesnt help that I can only use a Pikachu at this point, with his only move that can actually damage Brocks Pokes is Quick Attack, and even that only has -50% PLUS low power..

So I grinding til about Lv. 17-18, picking up Double Team along the way.

Heres nearly the step by step battle-

Pikachu Vs. Geodude (Note: I probably lost about 20 times to Brock..)

Pikachu uses Double Team
Geodude uses Tackle
Pikachu uses Double Team
Geodude Uses Tackle.. But FAILS!
Pikachu uses Double Team
Geodude uses Tackle.. But FAILS!
Pikachu uses Quick Attack x5
Geodude uses Tackle.. But FAILS! x4

Finally took him out..

Pretty much the same with Onyx, sooo >_>.

Beat him, took the TM, and the badge.. And left.

Went East, did the whole wandering around Mt. Moon and beating up Team Rocket grunts along the way. Leveled up Pikachu quite quickly, hitting a snag on my way against a Hiker, thanks to his Geodude D:.

Finally got out of that dark and eerie place, and made my way to Cerulean. As you all know, R/B/Y are quite simplistic, meaning all there is to do in Cerulean is beat the gym, and do the Nugget thing, talk to Bill, beat of the Rocket Grunt, and then leave.. But hey, makes it easier on me XD.

Anyway, the gym was easy. OHKO most of the trainers Pokes (Makes me glad I picked the Electric Mono, rather than the Fire XD) and took out Misty's Pokemon with two hits apiece.

Went south, into the underground thing. Came out, and took on the players there. Went into Vermilion, and thats where I am currently at now. I am still playing tonight, so ill probably post an update before I hit the sack if theres enough progress. If not, ill wait til tomorrow. Heres my current team:

Pikachu Lv. 28

ThunderShock
Slam
Double Team
Thunderbolt

Of course, I only keep around Double Team and Slam for instances like Brock, where I cant hit hard (or not at all) against a Pokemon, and yet in turn they can hit me hard, Double Team is for the evasiness, and Slam is for hitting.. Lol.

Here is my hopeful team:

Pikachu

Jolteon (Thanks AllentheGuitarist <3)

Electabuzz.. Though I cant remember if you can get him in R/B/Y or not..

Magneton.. I think D:.

And I do believe thats all the Electric types in Kanto.. Well, until next time! XD

 

[Westie7]

Save the Thunderbolt TM for Jolteon. It will be a major pain to train without a decent special attack.

EDIT: So, my Poison UMC has progressed! Sort of...
After catching my Oddish (Wadrus) I went back to Granite Cave. And grinded. A lot. When I was done, I had a level 16 Daclus II (Zubat) and Tetrid III (Tentacool), as well as a level 21 Wadrus, who had evolved into Gloom. I am about to attempt Brawly.

Also, Wattson is going to be a pain. My best bet will be training Tetrid III up to level 25 (groan) and teaching him Bubblebeam. His amazing special defense will be invaluable, as well as Bubblebeam doing somewhat decent damage.

 

[jdthebud]

Here is my hopeful team:

Pikachu

Jolteon (Thanks AllentheGuitarist <3)

Electabuzz.. Though I cant remember if you can get him in R/B/Y or not..

Magneton.. I think D:.

And I do believe thats all the Electric types in Kanto.. Well, until next time! XD

Electabuzz isn't available in Yellow, but Magneton is (and Electrode, but he totally sucks). Also, Pikachu isn't evolvable, which is why I didn't use Yellow, although he does learn Thunderbolt via level-up in Yellow and not in R/B.

 

[Westie7]

Is Seviper any good for a UMC Sapphire leg? I really don't like the 1,640,000 exp. To 100, so I want to know if he's actually worth it. Because I'm completely fine with Tentacruel, Crobat, Vileplume and Muk, and Seviper seems interesting enough if he's good enough.

 

[Seeds Horizon]

Progress Update #2- Yellow

So, ill start off from my last update..

Came into Vermillion, and immedaiatly headed onto the SS Anne, who in fact looks much better than its later counterparts. Went into all the rooms, training up my Pikachu quite nicely due to the fact that there was no Geodudes or Onyxs on board (Thank goodness...) and then met up with Gary. He beat me the first time I fought him, due to my idiocy and having Pikachu at about 1/4 Hp. The next time I battled him I completely mopped the floor with his Pidgey and Eevee.

Went into the Ol' Caps room, and rubbed his back. Hes so nice, he gave me a Hm-01: Cut! Left the SS Anne.. Only to see it leave without me D:. Cut the bush north of the gym, and went inside.

I was scared for my life, so only battled one trainer. It took me about a minute to find both switches, and then I was in! Pikachu owned Raichu so easily, thanks to Megapunch.

Left there... And then went back to Cerulean, picking up a Bike along the way.

I must say, the Cave was a pain. I forgot to get Flash, so I pretty much stumbled around for an hour or two, and Pikachu fainted.. Thrice.

After a considerable time roaming around, finally found the exit. Got into Lavender Town, then left (Yeah I know, I didnt want to do the tower thingy D:) went West, and got into Celadon. Picked up the Eevee (How nice, thank you kind sir, you just nearly completed my team) and went into Celadon Dept. Store. Bought a Mega Punch TM (Accidentally replaced Pikachus with.. Agility D:) And taught it to Pikachu so hed stand a chance against Geodude and hius affliates.

Also picked up a Thunder Stone, and evolved Eevee into Jolteon. Taught it Thunderbolt, and then went south into the gym.

Thanks to Mega Punch and Pikachu, completely mopped the floor with Erika.

Went West, got the Fly HM, taught it to my Fly slave Pidgey, and here I am now.

Heres my updated team:

Pikachu Lv. 39

Mega Punch
Agility
Double Team
Thunder Bolt

Pidgey Lv. 18 (Fly slave)

Fly


Bulbasaur Lv. 10 (Cut slave)

Cut

Squirtle Lv. 10 (Surf Slave, for when I get Surf.. lol)

Magenmite Lv. 21

Thunder Wave
Tackle (Sadly doesnt know any strong offensive type moves//)

Jolteon Lv. 27

ThunderBolt
Quick Attack
Growl
Tackle

Jolteon only knows one Electric type move, and thats his strongest attack.. So Pikachu basically solos right now XD.

Is Seviper any good for a UMC Sapphire leg? I really don't like the 1,640,000 exp. To 100, so I want to know if he's actually worth it. Because I'm completely fine with Tentacruel, Crobat, Vileplume and Muk, and Seviper seems interesting enough if he's good enough.

If you have 5/6 pokemons in your team, Seviper's Fluctuating experience is actually more positive than negative, because its requirements are really low until late 40's.

I don't know about Seviper as a Pokemon though. It has good offence, bad defense, and decent speed :I

 

[Ramsie]

[Seeds Horizon]

Well, after spending since the crack of dawn on Yellow.. I finally beat it.. lolz. Heres my last update~

Progress Update #3- Yellow, Final.

After getting Fly, I headed over to Saffrons gate keeper thing, gave him some Fresh Water, and went through. Went back to Celadon, did the whole Game Corner thing (Quite annoying if you ask me~) and got the.. Silph Co. Thingy.. Went through the Ghost Tower, made it to the top, defeated the Marowak, and then left..

Went down the Cycling Road into Fuchsia, and immideatly challenged the gym. Somehow made it past Koga the first time (im so happy for Antidotes <3) and then left. Went up to Saffron, went through the whole Silph Co. crap, and then did Sabrinas gym without a hitch. Jolteon is proving quite useful!

Went back to Fuchsia and went through the Safari Zone and got Surf.. Silly me, I forgot to do it XD.

Went to Cinnabar, and did the whole mansion thingy~.

Took out Blaine, it wasnt too difficult for my now overleveled Pikachu and Jolteon, while my Mangnemite is still Lv. 20.. lolz.

Then I went and grinding my team to Lv. 50 each. yeah, it didnt take too long though..

Went to Viridian, and guess what, Giovanni is the leader? A.M.G..(At least thats what i would have said if I hadnt beaten R/B/Y before XD).

He.. Was difficult. Though I beat him after the 4th or 5th try, it was very taxing.

Time for the Pokemon League!

Made it all the way through Victory Road some how.. And when I got through, went into the Indigo Plateau. Healed my Pokemon,then went straight back into Victory Road. Grinded for agessssssssssss. Made every. Single. One. Of my Electric types Lv. 60, with the exception of Pikachu, who I leveled to 65 and Jolteon to 63..

Lorelei was... Easy. Pikachu two or three hitted all of her Pokemon, at least. Double Team+ Thunder Bolt assured my victory.

Bruno.. A. M. G. Sooo difficult, especially his Onyx's. I actually went back and got Pikachu to Lv. 70 to do this guy. My strategy was this: Got a full Ethers saved just for him, and Double Teamed 5-6 times. Then Mega Punched his whole team, using Ethers and Hypers when needed. It wasnt all hard when I finally pulled it off successfully without getting my Pikachu owned, so all in all... Bleh.

Agatha was mehh.. I made sure to get some Antidotes and etc.. When fighting because of the status crap D:. Oh well, I beat her on the first try after Bruno.

Lance.. *shrugs* he was.. Hard. Took me three tries in total (it took me about 2 hours to finally beat all of the Pokemon League, due to me getting beaten a lot..) Double Teamed and Mega Punched or Thunder Bolted my way through, and used Jolteon with the same tactics when Pikachu fainted.

Blue.. GARGH. Just kidding, he was a pushover. His Eevee evolved into Jolteon, so it didnt take much I suppose. I Double Teamed and Mega Punched his team, since Sandslash is D:. Ninetales was a bit errr... Cloyster was a push over.. Lol.

My final team:

Pikachu Lv. 72

Double Team
Mega Punch
Thunder Bolt
Thunder Wave


Jolteon Lv. 64

Thunder Bolt
Double Team
Quick Attack
Tackle

Magneton Lv. 60

Thunder Wave
Tackle
Super Sonic
Some other random move..

Bulbasaur- Cut Slave

Squirtle- Surf Slave

Pidgey- Fly Slave.

Thats my finishing team.. This wasnt too hard. Ill be skipping over Gen II due to the fact that I hate Johto D:. Ill come back to it later, instead going to do Emerald, which I substituted for Sapphire cuz im pretty sure you cant get a Electric type til after the second gym (Which is where im at, I skipped the second so ill just grab myself an Electric type and then go back and that.. Blah.) So expect an update tonight!

 

[PartiallyInsaneWhimsicott]

If you have 5/6 pokemons in your team, Seviper's Fluctuating experience is actually more positive than negative, because its requirements are really low until late 40's.

I don't know about Seviper as a Pokemon though. It has good offence, bad defense, and decent speed :I

If I choose to use him, he'll be my fifth team member. I'm looking at his moveset, and I'm not really sure. Crunch at level 28 is amazing, and Poison Fang is nice. He can learn Earthquake via TM, which I don't think I could use otherwise, and Glare is an interesting move for level 25. I think I'll try him out, seeing as I'm almost there anyways.

Speaking of which, I beat Brawly using Wadrus the newly evolved Gloom, then did storyline stuff, training Tetrid III (Tentacool) a lot until he learned Bubblebeam. I grinded quite a bit for Wattson, ending with a level 24 Wadrus and 25 Tetrid III. Daclus II (Zubat -> Golbat) fell behind, because he wasn't going to help for the fight. He rested at level 22.
I defeated Wattson on my second attempt, I recieved Rock Smash and Strength, and I caught Mito III the Grimer. I shall soon grind him up 10 levels, along with Wadrus an extra one level.

Spoiler:

So rushing through the Kanto Gyms, I started at Erika (easy-peasy) then ran to Sabrina and beat her pretty easy as well (thanks to Nessie and her high Sp. Def.)

After rushing down the Cycling Road, I charged into Janine's gym and stomped her flat with Piggy's Earthquake.

Finishing up that, I fixed the Power Plant and challenged her. Lapras, now with Zap Cannon thanks to the Power Plant guy, wiped her team fairly easily as well =)

Once I woke up Snorlax from his eternal slumber and ran through Diglett cave, I beat Brock with Kissy Face quite easily.

Afterwards, I surfed down past Pallet town, ran into Blue to get him to appear in Viridian Gym, and surfed over to the Seafoam Islands to challenge Blain who was beaten quite easily with Clammy.

Going back to Viridian, I challenged Blue, and that's where the difficulties began. His diverse team of pokemon that were higher leveled than my own gave me some trouble (Piggy, nooooooo!) but Clammy and Kissy Face pulled out in the end =)

Oh... Red. Ugh. His team wasn't that hard really: His Pikachu, Venasaur, and Charizard fell in one hit, while Lapras and Blastoise only took one Zap Cannon from Nessie. However... his Snorlax. Ouch, his Snorlax.

I beat him by pure luck, to be honest. I threw out Piggy after Snorlax one-shot my Kissy Face with a Body Slam. I knew my only hope was to spam him with Mud Slap and hope I didn't get hit more than once. After 6 turns of Mud Slap, I was only hit by one Body Slam (and that nearly took Piggy out) and Snorlax was at 1/3 health. I knew that I absolutely had to freeze him with Powder Snow (a 1/10 chance) or he'd just Rest and go back to full health. I used Powder Snow, and right then I was touched by His Great Noodly Apppendage and Snorlax was frozen! Then I just spammed him with Piggy's Earthquake a few times and beat Red!

Now, once I beat Black (3-4 days) I'll start with Emerald =D

- Got to Sunyshore, beat Volkner
- Swam to Victory Road

Final Team:

Lightyear the Hardy Electivire (Motor Drive) lv57 @nothing Sinnoh MVP, Aaron MVP, Flint MVP, Cynthia Co-MVP

ThunderPunch, Fire Punch, Earthquake, Rock Climb

Great, from start to finish, my best pokemon. Sad that I can't use him again :(

Bolt the Adamant Luxray (Intimidate) lv56 @nothing Lucian Co-MVP

Solid member, reliable, and very powerful. Even Spark did loads of damage!

Casino the Sassy Rotom (Levitate) lv57 @nothing Bertha MVP, Lucian Co-MVP, Cynthia Co-MVP

Great pokemon, Levitate helped a LOT, more or less soloed Bertha, with the exception of Rhyperior, who was taken out by Lightyears EQ. Really helped against Cynthia ;)

Brainbot the Jolly Magnezone (Magnet Pull) lv56 @Metal Coat

Flash Cannon, Discharge, Shock Wave, HP Ghost
Powerhouse, even with -Sp. Atk. He wrecked anything that wasn't ground or fire, hence his low usage during the E4. Really helpful. But, this is it, no more Brainbot :(
