-Bite
-Razor Leaf

I'll probably post again once I finish around in Canalave and the Iron Islands. I hope I just don't have to post more than four more updates before I finish.
 
Wow, I've been really bad with this whole thing. I got bored of monotyping the whole series, but I've got back onto it recently, and defeated the rest of the gym leaders. However, I think I'll stop after this game, I simply can't be bothered to do all of them.

My Current Team (All lvl. 55):

Gunner/Blastoise
- Surf
- Counter
- Dig
- Skull Bash

Titanic/Lapras
- Surf
- Ice Beam
- Sing
- Psychic

Pearl/Cloyster
- Surf
- Explosion
- Aurora Beam
- Spike Cannon

Rage/Gyrados
- Thunderbolt
- Hydro Pump
- Fire Blast
- Hyper Beam

Jonny/Vaporeon
- Surf
- Double-Edge
- Mist
- Ice Beam

Burnley/Slowbro
- Surf
- Psychic
- Earthquake
- Toxic

I've done my training, and now I'm off to defeat the Elite Four!

UPDATE:
The Elite Four are down in one sweep!

Gyrados took down Lorelei with ease. Four of them went down to Thunderbolt, and Jynx with Fire Blast.

Bruno was a joke of an opponent, falling to Slowbro with ease. Surf took down his Onixes, and Psychic his fighters.

Agatha was almost equally as easy. Confuse Ray was irritating, but the combined Psychics of Slowbro and Lapras took care of her Pokemon.

Lance was unbelievaby easy.

Gyrados = Gyrados + Thunderbolt
Dragonair = Vaporeon + Ice Beam
Dragonair = Lapras + Ice Beam
Aerodactyl = Blastoise + Surf
Dragonite = Cloyster + Aurora Beam

Pyro (my rival) wasn't too bad either.

Pidgeot = Gyrados + Thunderbolt
Alakazam = Gyrados + Hyper Beam
Rhydon = Blastoise + Surf
Arcanine = Vaporeon + Surf
Gyrados = Gyrados + Thunderbolt
Venasaur = Lapras + Ice Beam

Popped into the Unknown Dungeon to catch myself a Mewtwo, and that's that. I'm done!

I think I'm gonna have to drop out of this too. I made it three gyms into Crystal, and I don't think I can go any farther. Ground pokemon are just boring. Plus, ever since I found Crystal All, I can't enjoy a game without having an umbreon on my team.
Good luck to everyone else in this challenge, hopefully people get through all four games.
 
I've started Crystal with my new normal team, and to make it a bit more of a challenge, I'm going to only use 2nd Gen pokemon. My current team is:

"image removed"
Sentret Lv14
Quick Attack
Defence Curl
Tackle

"image removed"
Hoothoot Lv13
Peck
Growl
Tackle
Foresight

"image removed"
Dunsparce Lv14
Rage
Defence Curl
Glare

"image removed"
Teddiursa Lv3 (freshly caught)
Scratch
Leer

I just owned Falkner, taking advantage of Dunsparce againing +1 attack every time I used rage. I was able to 1 hit KO pidgeotto. :)
 
- beat the fightning gym
- saved the old man in the pokemon tower and got the poke flute and defeated both snorlaxes
- went to fuschia, got surf and strenght and caught a venomoth (but i wont use it cause its nature is stupid and i need the 6th slot for my flying slave)
- beat koga
- beat rival and giovanni again in the silph co
,
- caught zapdos with master ball to use it as a slave =D
- beat sabrina
- beat blaine

update:
- beat giovanni
- beat rival
- beat lorelei (put dewgong asleep, swords danced scyther and swept through her team) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mk4fhZx27ys
- beat bruno (butterfree did the most work with phychic and giga drain) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UNtfzsv_88
- beat agatha (same thing as lorelei) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZahueL2XVQ
- beat lance (hard. scyther got owned by dragonite because gyarados woke up to early and i couldnt swords dance 3 times, aerodactyl almost killed me but after using a revive on scyther, i ch'd it with steel wing) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jK39Df2Y6rs
- attempted rival but after a 12 minutes battle i lost because i didnt ohko alakazam and it killed me with psychic. before, i used dozens of revives til pidgeot and arcanine finally went down, maybe theres no chance of winning against him with that team and i have to train till level 65 oder sth like that... bah...

-finally beat rival on the 5th attempt
sleep powdered pidgeot, sent out scyther and swords danced 3 times, pidgeot didnt wake up so it wasnt able to use whirlwind and the rest was more or less a joke. didnt record it cause i didnt expect me to win =D

i think you can do that, if the ground users can use nidoran, why shouldnt flying users use magikarp?

Alright, things are going quite fast, when playing this challenge on my emulator. I've already battled my way through Red Version - I just became the Pokémon League Champio with the following team:

Flareon, Lv. 56
- Bite
- Ember
- Flamethrower
- Body Slam

Arcanine, Lv. 55
- Skull Bash
- Take Down
- Ember
- Flamethrower

Charizard, Lv. 65
- Slash
- Dig
- Flamethrower
- Cut

Rapidash, Lv. 50
- Ember
- Fire Blast
- Stomp
- Take Down

Moltres, Lv. 50
- Peck
- Fire Spin
- Fly

HM Slaves:
Votorb (Flash)
Slowpoke (Flash, Surf, Strength)

I hardly got to use my Moltres - Caught it while on my way to the Pokémon League, but didn't really get to use it. Anyway, this was pretty easy - At least, the first few gyms went pretty easy. Blaine and Giovanni was a little tough, and my rival was nearly unbeatable, but I just managed to defeat his Blastoise with Charizard's Slash.

Since I have absolutely nothing to do, I'm gonna move on to Crystal version right away, and try to fight my way through with only Fire-type Pokémon.
 
@Pekin- you cant use legends
Oh yea, that's right, I forgot that part!
Well, I only used it for a few battles against wild Pokémon in Victory Road, so does it count?

If you didnt use it in E4/Gym battles that's okay I guess
 
- beat wallace https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB57m-3aEMQ
- anorith evolved, dunno where and when
- replaced volbeat by illumise, which i had dropped from my team around lavaridge town because it didnt have any useful moves at that time, but now volbeat only has signal beam and confuse ray and illumise can learn things like t-bolt. the bad thing is that illumise needs tons of experience while volbeat levels up extremely fast...
- currently training at the entrance of victory road, i dont think im already strong enough for passing victory road. its extremely annoying that when im trying to train heracross, lots of golbats appear, when i try to train illumise, lots of these sumo things appear, etc... =\
