lol, nice one Obbmud :P
Oh my, I kept forgetting to check up on this thread because of the new forum layout. Now I just hang around in the OU forums. I really regret not seeing what was happening here. Now I've got a lot of reading to catch up on, I missed giving KS a challenge for his prose scramble, and I missed the Scramble Awards (which I probably wouldn't have participated in anyway).
I should have the next chapter of my White Scramble up by Saturday.

Speaking of Emerald scrambles (or Scramblockes....)
I'm still waiting for challenges people!
I'm looking for a challenge for each type. All types but Fire, Water, Dark and Electric are still available.
Could I request a Trapinch/Vibrava/Flygon challenge for my Ground type?
E: Ground's gone too. Thanks Arcticblast!

user 18, I'll take that Trapinch.
Take a Trapinch. This Trapinch realizes that, despite being bugs, its evolutionary family lacks a Bug typing! In his anger, it may not evolve until landing the final blow on five Bug-type Pokemon of a similar level.* Once it evolves, it becomes aware of the fact that instead of a Bug typing, it has a Dragon typing. Who wouldn't want that? It must solo five Pokemon with Dragonbreath, and it must resist or be immune to one of their types (Fire, Poison, Rock, Electric). That is all.
*If this goes against your soloing rule, you don't have to follow it.

Would it be okay if I submitted another one? If so, could I reserve a Psychic type?
EDIT: Okay then, I can wait. Anybody who wants to reserve a Psychic, go ahead.
If I don't have enough submissions 48 hours from now, I'll begin taking second submissions from people.
I think 5 days is fair to give everyone who wants to submit one a shot.
E: Does anyone know how to get email notification working? It's really annoying me.
Crud, I totally forgot about Jellicent and User 18's Mons. >_> My bad. :D Editing them now, for sure. :3
Jellicent, you get Ragin'! the Beedrill. I think you know what this Challange is going to be revolved around. That's right, Rage! Gen I was not kind to this move, and if it missed, your accuracy dropped to 0.01% or some extremely low number like that. Well, anyways, your Beedrill was picked on as a Weedle relentlessly by the other Bug-types in the forests for being the runt of the litter, and it infuriated the little fuzzball. There's only so much a Bug-type can take, huh? It wanted to evolve ASAP so it could get revenge! So every time you meet a Bug-type, Ragin'! must solo the Pokémon with just Rage, not able to switch, use items, or switch up attacks until the Bug-type or Ragin'! faints. But that's not all. Ragin'! also must solo a GL with a typing he is not SE against, defeating at least one of said GL's Pokémon with Rage. To show his rage, he must solo at least ten Trainer-owned Pokémon off using only Rage. GLHF. I can make it harder if you want me to. ;) Obviously, all restrictions start when you gain a Beedrill.

I'll reserve a Dragon, lemme eat something first
Edit:
Can't find the OP, could you post a link to it?
Woops. Guess I wasn't paying close enough attention. Still, I was right when I said my post ended the voting period. In 8 more posts the 200th page will begin! Not including this post, of course.
User18 if you need a Pokemon I'll give one. Just repost the OP.
As requested:
E: 24 hours left before I open things up for people to submit a second 'mon.
I have challenges for Fire, Water, Electric, Dark and Ground, as well as reservations for Dragon and Bug.
StallMandibuzz and Treadshot also have reservations, with type unknown. @the two of you: If you have a type in mind, make a quick post so we don't get double coverage on a type.
Thanks to everyone who's submitted and reserved so far.

Reserve ice for user 18
Take any ice type you wish (it must be able to evolve at some point). It must use only one attacking move of each type (physical and special), and the other moves must be status moves. You are only allowed to use moves in groups of 3. In other words, if you use a move, you must use it for the next two turns as well (no items or switching until the three turns has expired). Even if the move is ineffective (like three turns of Toxic), you'd still have to use it for three turns.
Oh, and make it hold an item that increases its ability in some way (Choice, Expert Belt, Blackglasses, etc.).

Chapter 11 of Ruby is up!
This time, it's the end for one of the team members. But which one? Go read to find out!

Noooo! Bounty has fallen! D:
On another note, I too have sustained a casualty or two, and to a damn Critical Hit at that too. :c I think I'm just going to start with my Scramblocke updates, and update regardless whether or not I fail.

BOUNTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Care if I asked how such a thing came about? Why you really didn't use Flapper or Soda?

@Tetrinity: Can't update Obituary until I get home, but I will ASAP.
@KS: Bounty was required to solo Combusken o_O

I actually forgot about that >_>
I assumed that you would have grinded him to Lv.20 and evolved him first.
'tis what I'd have done.
Goddamn it, I keep forgetting about User 18's Pokèmon. D: alright, I'll edit now.
User 18, take Depressed the Seedot. Yes, this Seedot is related to ShinySkarmory's Seedot, and like her, Depressed has major emotional problems. With the capturing of her parents, and since Emo was caught by Skarm, Depressed is now all alone until you find her and capture her. Now, this Seedot is petrified of death, since she was the one that found her mother's charred body, so for the first Route after catching her, you cannot use her in said Route. In addition, she's afraid of being set on fire or of being eaten by birds, so she refuses to battle Fire and Flying types. To evolve into a Nuzleaf, she must solo 10 trainer-owned Pokèmon by absorbing their blows, then throwing all their rage back at them threefold. After evolving, she's still afraid of death, but she begins to open up to a friend. Pick one of your Pokèmon, and Depressed bonds to that Pokèmon. Unfortunately, her confidante dies, and Depressed becomes so distraught and overrun with pain, that she will attempt to commit suicide by Fire. Try to solo Flannery, and if she succeeds in besting her, she may evolve into a Shiftry. Now, Depressed is slowly coming to terms with the horrors of the world, and if she survives to the E4, have her solo Sidney, or barring that, have her solo Sidney's Shiftry, who is Depressed's long-lost father. Have fun. :D
Edit: Damn it, I forgot that Nuzleaf/Shiftry is Grass/Dark, but Seedot is just plain Grass. Could that mistake with overlapping types be overlooked? Can't have a Scramblocke without a Nuzleaf! :3 also, forget said Seedot's name if you want.
