[Charmageddon]

I have finally defeated the Elite Four! It was tough, but I managed it. I challenged Lorelei with four underlevelled Pokemon and was so utterly trounced that I knew more training was in order. I got Aerodactyl and Omastar to lvl. 55, Rhydon to 52, and caught an Onix for backup.

Lorelei is a complete and utter bitca. Omastar proved key in defeating her, she spammed Surf and Full Restores on her Dewgong, but it eventually went down to Ancientpowers. Cloyster was equally annoying, but she was stupid enough to use Dive, and double-power Surf defeated it. Her Lapras actually took down Omastar, but Aerodactyl was speedy enough to get two Aerial Aces in and defeat her. My quick-clawed Graveler exploded in her Slowbro's face, and Aerodactyl took down Jynx (Extremely difficultly considering her Attract/Lovely kiss tactics).

Bruno was simply a non-challenge, Surfs and Aerial Aces from Omastar and Aerodactyl took him down no trouble. Agatha was simply annoying, her ghosts spammed Hypnosis, I just used the Pokeflute and waited until they missed before hitting her back. Rhydon beat Arbok with a couple of Earthquakes and Golbat with Rock Blast easily enough. Lance was slightly more difficult. Graveler's Rock Slide simply kept missing, and I was eventually forced to resort again to Explosion. Omastar beat his Aerodactyl, and my Aerodactyl beat his Dragonairs. Dragonite went down to a single Ice Beam, and I moved on to the Champion.

Fugi (as I named him) was surprisingly easy. OK, his Gyrados wasn't, getting lucky on Hyrdo Pump and using several Full Restores, but Ancientpower eventually earned me a stat boost and he went down. Toxic + Rock Blast was a winning combination for Rhydon against both Charizard and Pidgeot. Omastar wiped the floor with Rhydon and Alakazam, and Aerodactyl took down Exeggutor. I am the champion!

Final team:

Graveler/Filler
lvl. 56
Rock Head
- Brick Break
- Explosion
- Earthquake
- Rock Slide

Invaluable at the start of the game, being my only pokemon until Fuschia, but was surpassed in power by the fossils later on. Explosion got me out of a couple of tight spots.

Aerodactyl/Mfanwy
lvl. 57
Pressure
- Aerial Ace
- Dragon Claw
- Hyper Beam
- Flamethrower

Probably the best pokemon on my team, mainly because of its excellent speed. It also helped me against problematic Fighting and Grass types.

Omastar/Ollie
lvl. 56
Swift Swim
- Surf
- Ancientpower
- Ice Beam
- Sandstorm

Very useful in being the only one not utterly raped by water-types. Ice Beam and Surf is a deadly combination on any Pokemon, and his high Special Attack made them all the better.

Rhydon/Duggan
lvl. 53
Lightningrod
- Earthquake
- Rock Blast
- Toxic
- Take Down

Wasn't used an awful lot, but was very reliable when called upon. Took down Fugi's Charizard in one hit, which I was quite impressed with.

Onix/Freud
lvl. 48
Rock Head
- Sandstorm
- Dragonbreath
- Iron Tail
- Slam

Not trained at all, his main function was to die horribly while I healed my other pokemon. Had a brief outing losing to Lance's Dragonair, but that's about it.

 

[560cool.]

Hehe, I've been neglecting my Rock challenge. I really need a break from Rock-types, so I'm playing through Platinum (Steel) and Emerald (Normal) before returning to Johto. I may beat Johto before one of the other two, I don't know.

Update #1 (30.08.09, 10:51)
started in yellow, got the rat and beat blue.

some minutes later (thanks to speed increse abuse), i had deliverd the parcel end entered viridian forest. i almost got screwed by the third pokemon i met, a pidgeotto, but escaped....

...and the next pokemon, a lvl 8 pidgey killed me >_>
i hadnt saved before, so i continued, trained a bit and when i was lvl 15, i attempted brock.
6xgrowl and 6xtail whip on geodude, used a potion when i was low on hp and then killed it with quick attack
same on onix, at the end i was lucky it stopped using screech and bind when i had only 3 hp and no potion left (i had only 4 because i accidentally bought pokeballs instead of potions) it used bide and i could kill onix.

Update #2 (30.08.09, 12:15)
