I need to eat dinner now, but after that I'm gonna play Soulsilver. I just need 7 more Kanto badges and then Red. And then I guess I might want to go grab Groudon, but I don't really care about any of the other legendaries. Reasons I need to beat Soulsilver

1) I can transfer all my guys from Sapphire to Soulsilver so I can start up a solo run in Sapphire.
2) I can consider replacing some members of my post-game team in White with some bros from Soulsilver.
3) I can start up my Soulsilver nuzlocke. Which will be awesome.

7 badges, Red and some legend catching? you should be done that in no time! go go go! :P

so many games, so little time. I have FR/LG, D/P/Pt, HG/SS and Black carts all lying around ready to be restarted. well, I also have spare R/S/E carts, but I think I want to switch stories for my next run. either way, must finish my sapphire egglocke already! Almost done training for Flannery, just need to get Nelly and Rocky a few more levels. I've been a slacker, spending all my time breeding in White >.<

I defeated Flannery today. Now that I can make use of Strength and Go-Goggles I'll clear the rest of the Fiery Path and the Desert on Route 111 before heading over to Petalburg to challenge Norman.

Team:

Rocky {graveler} Littleroot Town, Sassy, Sturdy, Level 30
Rock Slide / Fire Blast / Earthquake / Rock Smash

Charles {umbreon} Route 101, Hardy, Synchronize, Level 25 -> level 30

Nelly {quagsire} Route 104, Bashful, Water Absorb, Level 30 -> level 31
Ancient Power / Ice Beam / Earthquake / Slam

I'm not 100% sure what you're saying there. Did I use gameshark? no. I bred some pokemon on my Ruby game and then traded the eggs to my Sapphire. (That only works on R/S, in E/FR/LG they "fixed" it so you can't trade eggs or anything that's not in your starting pokedex)
I'm not doing a classic Nuzlocke, I just didn't want to start a new thread for what I'm doing so I posted my adventures here. It's very similar, just I'm hatching eggs on the routes instead of catching pokemon on them. All the other rules are the same.

Anyways, the replacement I hatched was:
Nightmare {ponyta} Rusturf Tunnel, Bashful, Run Away, Level 5
Double Kick / Secret Power / Overheat/ Stomp

Levelling him up and clearing anything water-related that i missed now that I have Surf before heading towards the Weather Institute.

Just a quick update of my team on FireRed. Yes, I am still in it to win it! With all my main Pokemon dead except Herbert and Aquario, I'm grinding like hell. Now, I'm determined to get everyone to Lv. 60 before taking on the E4.

{venusaur} Herbert: Male, Lv. 51
Received from Professor Oak
{vaporeon} Aquario: Male, Lv. 49
Received in Celadon City
{pidgeot} Horus: Male, Lv. 46
Caught on Route 2
{marowak} Romulus: Male, Lv. 44
Caught in Victory Road
{kadabra} Micah: Male, Lv. 42
Bought in Game Corner
{magneton} Joules: Genderless, Lv. 40
Caught in Power Plant

I have a team of bros. :3 I've been endlessly battling the five Black Belts/Crush Girls on One Island, and am slowly getting there... Wish me luck guys! (BTW I'm sure the comic will be awesome. I've started with a couple of preliminary sketches. :o )

Sapphire sololocke. Rockin' a Torchic. Currently Combusken, headed for Wattson. Named Chicken.
Bulk Up/Ember/Double Kick/Rock Tomb
I plugged him into an IV calculator (with EVs estimated because I don't keep track) and he seems to have a really **** attack IV, so I might actually do a little bit of attack EV training later to balance it out a bit, because I'm betting that the E4 moveset will be Fire/Physical/Physical/Physical, so attack is kind of important.

I did it! I actually did it! I beat my Rival! It was at a cost though, since I lost Micah in the process. :cry: He was a brave soul. He just couldn't handle that Gengar's Shadow Ball. He will not be forgotten!

I'm going to finish up the rest of the story, with Rocket and the Sevii Islands. Then I'll get to work on the comic, and my new Platinum Nuzlocke. Thanks to all you guys who read along with me. It was a great time!

yeah, and it's really no fun to grind a replacement when you get crit killed towards the end of your run >.<

I'm still working on my egglocke. Almost done training Nightmare up and I'm about to head to the Weather Institute. Hopefully I'll have a proper update later tonight.

I'm at Mossdeep city. I've caught {duskull} Cyclops, {torkoal} Raphael, and {electrode} AlakaBoom. I've leveled up my team, evolved Cirrus and am about to take on the Psychic gym. Wish me luck :mrgreen:

I've just finished Mt Pyre and I'm following Team Aqua to Slateport now. My challenge is slow going because I have no pokemon that can learn Fly on my team. I might just grab my dead Pidgeotto for HM use only, because running everywhere is a pain in the butt. :frustrated:

Started yesterday. Current team is Quilava level 20, Sentret level 9, and Hoppip level 6. Deaths: Ledyba level 10. :*(.
Currently trying to pwn Witney. Might be a problem, considering how hard it is on NON-nuzlocke, so I dread to think how hard it'll be WITH nuzlocke...
Author:  Dangertrout [ Wed Jan 11, 2012 10:09 am ]
Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge
I've been continuing my challenge without Fly. It's so slow to travel >.< anyways, cleared some more story stuff, like the Team Aqua Hideout. Now I'm about to surf my way to Mossdeep and then take on the gym. The water routes are my least favorite, so this part is gonna take me a while :P

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge
Defeated Mossdeep gym, but Nelly died :( I wasn't expecting Solrock to have Solar Beam, and then I foolishly thought I could kill the Solrock before it would be able to use it :frustrated: I need to hatch a replacement, so I will teach Fly to Pidgeotto so I can get to where I wanted to hatch the egg. To be continued...

Rocky {graveler} Littleroot Town, Sassy, Sturdy, Level 35

Post subject:  Re: Nuzlocke Challenge
I tried making a platinum run, but found myself bending, and eventually breaking rules so I could have a funny story with a drug hazed Piplup (Rusty), a potion alcoholic Machop (Grok), a Drifloon (Hindenburg) awaiting his inevitable doom, a Ponyta (knight), and a tattoo drawing Budew, but when Drifloon died in the ghost gym, Machop was killed in the forest, but the trainer companion healed him, and similar incidents I felt I had to stop. I then considered running a soulsilver nuzlocke after a guy sold his unopened copy of it to me for $20. winning :)

after 2 failed runs (CURSE YOU BUGSY!!!) I finally had a team I liked.

Kells {chikorita} , Tripp {spearow} , Rhodes {geodude} , Mura {rattata} , Polaris {slowpoke} , and 101C47 {meowth} for his wonderful pickup, and hopefully one day payday
(my original 101C47 financed a porygon, dratini, and a number of TM's on my firered, then he transferred to Pearl where he sits in a box...)

I was happy with my team, and was confident in my fight with Jasmine, but it was not as I had hoped... I thought my lovable {graveler} would be fast enough to hit {steelix} first, and with earthquake should one shot the {steelix} but unfortunately Rhodes was slower, and took a critical Iron tail between the eyes, and was dead in one shot. Kells ( {meganium} ) wrapped up, but I had lost my powerhouse...

Currently I'm working through the Rocket Basement Hideout after the lake of rage, and am using the exp share to level my slowpoke up, but I find myself often using Slowbro because it's easy, and I don't think I should be repeating my usual trend... I caught a voltorb, and named it Bohrs, and plan to use it (as I have yet to use an eletrode) but its not a tank, and I feel that when running a nuzlock it is important to choose a tank from your limited choices, as tanks are much harder to kill. My Jolteon in Leafgreen was fast, and had a wicked special attack, but it could only take one hit. Slowbros are the ultimate bros, and take a beating, and keep going, and they provide a closing for if you get wiped out like I did for my leafgreen.

Slowbro uses amnesia. you forget everything. you awake with no memories in the bed of a Miss Sarah. you call her mom now. (This is how I linked my leaf green to Soulsilver, and progressively I have pokemon like ghastly, and other ghosts/psychic/spirit like pokemon unlock the memories)

On another note:
can you trade to evolve? I ask because before Rhodes passed I wanted to know if he would ever evolve, and eventually decided that if he evolved at 25 to graveler, and the trend in second generation seemed to be double the level of evolution for the second time (mareep chain evolves at 15 then again at 30, chikorita chain evolves at 16, then 32, etc.) But I leave the call to your opinions (especially since Rhodes in gone)
