    Though you can't evolve said Eevee until after the 5th or 6th badge. :/

    It may be easier if you just trade over a Glaceon from the start. Since you're using Ice-types, that is allowed. ^^

    oh i thaught you can play with pokemon that evolve later to your type (so playing with just eevee when i get it to the point it evolves)... but nwm.. i will trade a pokemon to my game (if i can on an emulator lol, but i think i can't xD)

    Yeah, you can. I just thought that if you wanted a Glaceon you could have one sooner using my suggestion. XD

    Though legally you can use that Eevee if you want. ^^

  • Beat Erika, Dodou evolved after the battle. Did the necessary parts of the Silph Co, i wasnt in the mood of beating all the 100 rockets in there. Beat the next two gyms, got the last two HMs, caught a Slowbro in Seafoam Islands (with Masterball xD) and traded it for a Lickitung.


    Team:

    InYourFace / Raticate Lv. 41
    Spr_1b_020.png

    - Dig
    - Body Slam
    - Quick Attack <--- whoops
    - Super Fang
    Raticate is so awesome, no wonder why all these youngsters have a rattata xD

    SingStar / Jigglypuff Lv. 37
    Spr_1b_039.png

    - Sing
    - Water Gun
    - Tri Attack
    - Body Slam
    I forgot to evolve this, that's why its pretty weak and that's why it's underleveled.

    TM Dump / Clefable Lv. 43
    Spr_1b_036.png

    - Ice Beam
    - Thunderbolt
    - Psychic
    - Bubblebeam
    Can't learn Surf, so i'll keep Bubblebeam

    ThisCanFly / Dodrio Lv. 41
    Spr_1b_085.png

    - Peck
    - Drill Peck
    - Fury Attack
    - Fly
    I know this moveset sucks, but Dodrio still pwns.

    Adipositas / Snorlax Lv. 38
    Spr_1b_143.png

    - Headbutt
    - Amnesia
    - Earthquake
    - Rock Slide
    Dies pretty fast; it might have good defences, but anything outspeeds it, so it always has to take a lot of hits...

    Marc / Lickitung Lv. 40
    Spr_1b_108.png

    - Cut
    - Surf
    - Strength
    - Screech
    I just traded it and gave it a rare candy i found, for no particular reason, so i don't really know whether it's good or not... its stats arent... (at least it learns a lot of hms)

    UPDATE: I just finished red Version. I was extremely underleveled, but only Lorelei and especially Lance gave me trouble. Blue was easy, only his Charizard was a bit annoying, but was stupid and used Rage after some rounds, so Snorlax, which would have had trouble with any other move that thing has, could kill it with Rock Slide.

    Final Team (in the order i had them before the Blue battle (which is pretty random), not in the order i caught them)
    ev1a3a_th.png

    - Ice Beam
    - Thunderbolt
    - Psychic
    - Bubblebeam

    24aybdv_th.png

    - Dig
    - Body Slam
    - Quick Attack
    - Super Fang

    2vbsmsy_th.png

    - Submission
    - Toxic
    - Tri Attack
    - Body Slam

    qq7e44_th.png

    - Surf
    - Strength
    - Cut
    - Submission

    2qk2v7l_th.png

    - Body Slam
    - Submission
    - Earthquake
    - Rock Slide

    r7j4ur_th.png

    - Tri Attack
    - Drill Peck
    - Fury Attack (lol)
    - Fly

    Started on Gold. Caught all the early Pokemon except for Spearow (theres a much better way getting a spearow in gsc), DUnsparce (caught it a bit later) and Hoothoot (it isnt night, so...). Beat everyone until Bugsy, went looking for a Dunsparce, finally found one after over 9000 maybe 100 Geodudes and Zubats (the hiker didnt help, i waited and waited, but he didnt call). beat rival, obtained Kenya the Spearow at Goldenrod. Saved.

    Team:

    SemiSlave / Sentret f Lv. 11
    Spr_2g_161.png

    - Tackle
    - Defense Curl
    - Quick Attack
    - Cut
    This will be my HM slave, but i'll probably also use it as teammember, so it's a semi-slave xD

    Flugratte / Pidgey m Lv. 16
    Spr_2g_016.png

    - Quick Attack
    - Sand Attack
    - Gust
    - Mud Slap
    I just used this before i could get the +50% exp Spearow, as soon as i can get a new teammember, i'll drop this into the box... I don't really like Pidgey...

    HaipahFang / Rattata m Lv. 17
    Spr_2g_019.png

    - Tackle
    - Tail Whip
    - Quick Attack
    - Hyper Fang
    Rattata makes a comeback, i couldn't call it InYourFaceII so i called it after it's main move (since there is no Body Slam TM in Gen2, at least i think so...)

    SingStarII / Jigglypuff f Lv. 16
    Spr_2g_039.png

    - Sing
    - Defense Curl
    - Pound
    - Disable
    Jigglypuff makes a comeback too, i'll teach it the Elemental Punches soon

    WhySoRare? / Dunsparce f Lv. 12
    Spr_2g_206.png

    - Peck
    - Defense Curl
    - Headbutt

    It really took eternally to get this thing, but when i wanted to give up and leave Dark Cave, i stumbled across it.

    Kenya / Spearow m Lv. 13
    Spr_2g_021.png

    - Peck
    - Growl
    - Leer
    - Fury Attack
    I can't get Dodou as early as in Red this time, so i'll go with this +50% Exp Spearow.

  • I had so much time today, that i'm already finished with Gold (used the speedincrease function again too much...). Most of Red's Pokemon were easy, only Charizard and Blastoise were annoying. Snorlax was easy because i had Super Fang.

    Final Team, even in screenshots:

    2lvyg6c_th.png
    <--- pretty good for sth that was intended to be a HM Slave
    14l6ir5_th.png
    <--- sadly my last Raticate in this challenge, it was sooo awesome
    2afyhif_th.png
    <--- Wigglytuff will make its comeback in Ruby, i'll need a Special Attacker
    14bq1e0_th.png
    <--- The Exp Boost was REALLY helpful, but didnt change the fact i had Fury Attack on my final team again (forgot to get the Steel Wing TM before red...)
    2mnk428_th.png
    <--- Very nice, especially against those pesky fightning types, i had serious trouble with them before Fearow learned Drill Peck. At first i wanted to train a Stantler because i thought that thing doesnt get enough attention, but then i remembered that there is girafarig, which has a nice double-typing that makes it a far better choice than Stantler... And i Miltank and Tauros... i wasn't really in the mood of using them, i wanted something unusual on this slot XD
    mlpkcm_th.png
    <--- replaced Dunsparce, which had been very useful at the beginning of the game, but the nearer i got to the Elite 4, the weaker it became... Did a very good job against Red, didnt always get OHKOd after a revive. The moveset was still the same i caught it with btw

    Started Ruby, chose Mudkip, caught a Zigzagoon, caught a Whismur. Did a lot of grinding and at level 20, i was finally able to beat Roxanne. Saved in Mauville now, after i beat Wally. Team is still overleveled.


    SemiSlave2 / Linoone f Lv. 25
    Spr_3r_264.png

    @ /
    Rash Nature / Pickup
    - Cut
    - Sand Attack
    - Rock Smash
    - Headbutt
    Linoone is that what Lickitung and Furret have been in the 2 previous generations - a HM Slave that is part of the team.

    StopYellin / Loudred f Lv. 25
    Spr_3r_294.png

    @ /
    Serious Nature / Soundproof
    - Pound
    - Uproar
    - Astonish
    - Howl
    I've never used one of these things before, so i don't really know whether it's really good or not. But Slakoth definetely isnt, and as a bird, i want to use Dodou/Dodrio, which i consider to be superior to Taillow/Swellow.

  • Update: Finally got my third teammember, a Zangoose. It already OHKOd itself when a Goldeen used Supersonic after it had 3 Swords Dances on it xD


    Team:

    Spr_3r_264.png

    @ /
    Rash Nature / Pickup
    - Cut
    - Strength
    - Rock Smash
    - Headbutt
    Pickup abitity is really useful, without all those Ultra Balls i would have pretty much failed to capture Zangoose.

    StopYellin / Loudred f Lv. 33
    Spr_3r_294.png

    @ /
    Serious Nature / Soundproof
    - Stomp
    - Uproar
    - Shock Wave
    - Howl
    I wish this thing would have a bit more speed, both attack stats are nice, but the speed just sucks...


    Zangoose / Zangoose m Lv. 16
    Spr_3r_335.png

    @ Soft Sand
    Naughty Nature / Immunity
    - Dig
    - Quick Attack
    - Swords Dance
    - Fury Cutter
    I'm not sure whether i should use Dig/Shadow Ball/Brick Break/Swords Dance or a STAB move instead of SD... And then there are Aerial Ace and Iron tail, which this thing can also learn, maybe AA>Dig, but again, i'm not sure... but then i would have wasted the Dig TM...
    And i don't have a nickname for it yet...
