I hate to bother any of you, but I need 1 more challenge before I can continue my Gauntlet. Thank you for your time in advance.

VS Lt.Serge
Fearow is out of fucks to give today
Challenges so far


Have I told you that Fearow is a motherfucking boss? No? Well, let me tell you a story about how Fearow practically solo'd Lt.Serge without being overleveled. It took me around 3 tries (the second one was Lt. Serge being a dick, paralyzing me and then double teaming to +6 as I miss every attack. :( ).
VS Voltorb
Fury Attack, plain and simple. It just simply knocked it out with 3 hits.
VS Pikachu
Fury Attack. OHKO. I got paralyzed from Static though, so that sucked.
VS Raichu
I needed to go into Pikachu first. He easily lived a Shock Wave and then Thunder Waved it. Last time he used a Full Heal like a prick, so I predicted him to use it and went for Thunder Wave again. Then I used Slam, got static paralyzed and he Quick Attacked. Then I proceed to quick attack, he gets fully paralyzed a lot, and then Pikachu faints. However, Fearow comes out and Fury Attacks for the victory.
Team



Bud the Lonely Ivysaur (Male)
Level 22
- Sleep Powder
- Leech Seed
- Poison Powder
- Razor Leaf

Didn't do too much here either, as I was busy catching everyone else up. Still strongth though. Leech Seed is the Stealth Rock of in-game so far though, giving me the little amount of damage I need in order to get 2HKOs. Also, the first thing Razor Leaf does when I learned it was miss. Damned 95 accuracy.


Cherry the Lax Pikachu (Female)
Level 20
- Thundershock
- Quick Attack
- Slam
- Thunderwave

Thunderwave was a godsend vs Lt. Serge. Well, not really. But it was useful due to Fearow getting paralyzed. I still have Quick Attack simply because Cherry likes to get into situations vs pokemon that learn Quick Attack where both parties are at 3 HP, and I don't want to lose Cherry because I didn't have Quick Attack. This will probably though.


Syrjnge the Careful Beedrill (Male)
Level 20
- Poison Sting
- Focus Energy
- Twin Needle
- Fury Attack

I figured out what I was doing wrong. I wasn't Focus Energying before attacking. He has amazing power after critting things, and having multiple tries to crit is awesome. (BTW, I didn't have harden, I had Focus Energy. I changed that in the last upadte)


Captain the Hasty Fearow (Male)
Level 24
- Peck
- Pursuit
- Growl
- Fury Attack

Not a single fuck was given this day. Falkner was right, Flying-types >>>>> Electric-types. Maybe Falkner would of been harder if he had a fearow...
Anyways, yeah, Captain is a motherfucking boss. Feel kind of bad for berating Fury Attack now, since it just raped everyone in Lt. Serge's gym. Probably going to teach it the Aerial Ace TM since I don't get drill peck until level 40.


Dexter the Sassy Sandslash (Male)
Level 20
- Dig
- Scratch
- Rock Tomb
- Sand-Attack

Not much has changed, he still is a boss. He completely destroyed my Rival. His bulk is also showing now that he has evolved, and he has gain more power. Can't wait until the Earthquake TM.


Fairy Bro the Careful Clafairy (Male)
Level 23
- Mega Kick
- Encore
- Minimize
- Follow Me

Fairy Bro might of sounded useless during the gym, but that isn't true. He swept all of the gym trainers in the gym with Mega Kick. I also used him in the two previous attempts before Fearow killed everyone, and he did decently well (fuck double team :( ). Overall, not bad. He's definitely going to learn Shock Wave though, Mega Kick is annoying. Sadly can't teach it Water Pulse due to Vaporeon missing Water Gun and not learning any other Water move until Surf. Might teach it Brick Break though, because of nature and shit. idk, we'll see

Box'd

CH'DING the Adamant Farfetch'd (Male)
Level 3
- Peck
- Cut

Cut. It begins.


Kriller the Bashful Magikarp (Male)
Level 5
- Splash

It's still just chillin'


Mr.Puffers the Quirky Jigglypuff (Male)
Level 5
- Sing
- Defense Curl

Flash slave anyone?

Current MVP: Captain. Again. Not every bird can sweep an electric gym.
Current LVP: Syrjnge. Still Syrjnge, as it needs to rely on Crits to catch up. He did power up thanks to Twin Needle, but things aren't looking good for our little bug friend. Not dropping it yet, but replacing it for any slave when I need it.

Loving the idea and some of the runs, might have to see if I have a spare cart I can do one of these with!

In the meantime, a challenge for you Reptile (I hope this is in the ball-park of difficulty you were after):

You cannot use any moves which act as a source of light in the Rock Tunnel. For clarification, moves such as Flash, Thundershock, Thunder Wave, Shock Wave, or any move that could provide a source of light for guidance is prohibited inside and outside of battle.

This makes your run through the tunnel semi-blind, with a partial move restriction in effect, and I hope it gives the place an interesting twist. Feel free to clarify moves if unsure.

Whoops, my bad. Since I copy-pasted the last post (because lazy), I forgot to remove the last bit of the post. I take challenges every 2nd gym, and I already have my 2 challenges, so I cannot accept this. However, you are welcome to post a challenge after the next update.

Sorry for the confusion. :(

EDIT: Decided I'll accept this, as adding another challenge isn't that big of a deal.

I hate to annoy anyone on here, but I do need at least 1 more game-long challenge to start my Gaunt-locke. If anyone else needs a challenge, I will be more than happy to give you one.

Naix, while battling anyone inside a Gym, if one of your pokemon get statused, they are not allowed to withdraw or be healed until a pokemon faints. This includes confusion.

G-von, If a pokemon is Asleep, Poisoned, Burned, or Paralyzed it must be boxed into the Death Box.

Looks like I won't be making it past the first Gym. I do see a loophole here and there in one of the challenges, but I think that's fine since I did mention to make these challenges hardcore. So I love all of you who gave me challenges, AND hate you at the same time >_< I'm happy I can start training for the first gym now, but I need 2 challenges for that gym so that I can challenge it.

Alright Ziposaki I think it's probably been around 24 hours sooo new one for you.

You are challenged to never use dark type moves, as that ruins the true simulation of a RBY remake!

Also, your character is shy. Probably because she's so weird :P

You think it's been "around 24 hours"?!

Arceus, its been like 45 hours. I should be getting my 3rd and last challenge from you in a bit. :p Whatever, accepted. And I mean, you can't really blame her, so far she looks like a wacko. I'll just have to see what I get RNGed.

Dinosaurdan: You can only use Kurt's pokeballs to catch pokemon (Gift/Voltorb Flip pokemon don't count towards this). Nothing else. It might be a while until you start catching stuff.

Alright, re-did the first update after restarting my game, so my first update is up! Just click the link in my sig. Everything is going smooth as clockwork so far, but given the challenges I've been handed that's no surprise. They're all ones that are going to really kick in around mid-game, and I won't be noticing them much just yet. Give me a gym or two, then I'll start feeling the burn.

EDIT: @ Dinosaurdan you are challenged to Beat Whitney with a Ghastly. This sounds easy until you realize that her Miltank has Scrappy in HG. Have fun!

I think I'll be doing a Pearl Gauntlet. I would like the challenges to be hard, but not too hard. I have FR, Emerald, and the ability to trade with Heartgold and Soulsilver.

Two challenges for each milestone, and each gym badge is a milestone. The Palkia battle is a milestone as well, as is the Elite Four. After each milestone and before the start of the game, I will accept two challenges. I also will accept two challenges throughout the entire game.

Challenges:

Entire Game


First milestone

Second Milestone

Third Milestone

Fourth Milestone

@Smaug
You can only use STAB level up moves whenever possible on your pokemon.(this includes non-attacking moves.) If it can't it can only use normal moves under 50 bp

Sorry that I'm beating a dead horse here but I REALLY would like some challenges for my Extreme Platinum Gaumble-Locke. If anyone wants to make a gaunltet or scramble challenge for me please do!

First, Jimera, could you have given an easier challenge? I'm sorry, but I'm seeing a massive easy way out.

Second, Smaug: First, roll a die. Then pick a card out of a 52 card deck. Then flip a coin. It doesn't actually have any effect, but for the sake of my amusement, you should do it and tell me what you got. Anyways, don't ever use Grass-type moves. I was going to say Fire, but we know Pearl and it's track record with Fire-types.

I'll modify this to "wherever possible", but I accept.

I accept. 4, two of hearts, heads. This is my second whole-game challenge.

I still need two first milestone challenges!

So confused about who needs challenges right now, the thread's getting a bit messy. :S

@Dinosaurden: After every gym battle, the pokemon that was in play when the final gym leader's pokemon faints, must be boxed until after the next gym battle. (Yes, this means you can't use the pokemon that KO'd Claires final pokemon until after the first gym in Kanto.)
Note: This Restriction does not apply in the Gym Battle with Blue.

@Smaug for you first milestone challenge, you cannot use Super-Effective moves against Roark. (I have no idea how hard this will be).

2 of hearts? So lucky. Best card in my favorite card game. And Corkscrew, I need challenges, but right now not from you.

Update #3

You can check my challenges and previous updates in the link in my sig.

-So with Otto the Dewott, Timothy the Tympole and Roman the Woobat, I chase Team Plasma in Pinwheel forest.
-I get the skull back and return it to Lenora
-I go through to Castelia City and fight quite a few tough Clerks.
-Around this time Tympole evolves to Palpitoed and Woobat evolves into Swoobat.
-I beat Team Plasma in Castelia and Munna gets returned to Bianca.
-As my challenge is to beat Burgh without any STAB moves, my options are:
-Uproar on Timothy
-Fury Cutter or Retaliate on Otto
-Assurance on Roman.
All my pokemon are level 25 at this point.

I send in Timothy first. Uproar does a little less than half on Whirlipede. This means I get it to red after two hits and Burgh uses a super potion. Whirlipede does pathetic damage with a move, that I can't even remember right now...
So after getting it down to red twice and Burgh using a super potion twice, I finally KO it after about 7 hits.
Burgh then sends out Leavanny. Oddly enough Palpitoed outspeeds (I know it's 2 levels higher, but still) and hits with Uproar that I'm still locked into. Leavanny then KO's with Razor Leaf.
I then send in Otto, who doesn't take that much damage from Razor Leaf as it is holding an Eviolite and KO's Leavanny with Retaliate.
I then proceed to Fury Cutter Dwebble to death.

All in all, that was my easiest gym battle yet. I haven't boxed a pokemon yet as what I choose to box will depend on my next challenge.

TEAM:

Otto lvl. 26
-Water Pulse
-Retaliate
-Fury Cutter
-Razor Shell

Otto is really good and was my MVP in the last battle.

Timothy lvl. 25
-Bubblebeam
-Mud Shot
-Uproar
-Aqua Ring

Timothy is now a pretty good pokemon. He's got 2 nice STABs and is capable of doing good damage with them.

Roman lvl. 25
-Heart Stamp
-Air Cutter
-Confusion
-Assurance

After evolving, Roman has improved slightly, but once I gain access to Sigilyph he probably won't be sticking around.

Rose lvl. 24
-Quick Attack
-Air Cutter
-Work Up
-Roost

Has been boxed since Nacrene Gym.


So I've defeated another gym leader. Which means...

I need a post-Burgh challenge before I can continue!!!

(You can also post challenges in advance if you so wish, as it stops me from having to stop playing all the time.)

Dan: So I can only use pokemon I catch before I beat Fuschia Gym, right? Well, accepted. However, I still need a personality trait.
