I get 1000 because I want to say that it is sad that Jim can barely 3KO a Pidgey that is 7 levels lower.
Sorry Jimera, but I couldn't resist >_>

-Walked outside and almost got mauled by a happy Marril.
-Chose Totodile as my starter.
-Got my running Shoes from a creepy old guy who somehow knew my shoe size....
-Heading to get that stupid egg so I can catch Cell and Jim.
-Got the egg, Listened to time wasting talk, and got my pokedex from a guy who cannot remember my name.....
-Battled and destroyed my rival and named him Noob because he is a noob.
-Gave the Egg to Elm after being accused of shoplifting.
-"Learned" how to catch a Pokemon (like I still have no exp.) and received my pokeballs.
-Now to catch Jim and Cell..............Caught Cell (neutral nature) and Jim (another neutral nature). Could be worse...
-Trains Jim and Cell to lv 10 before my first non-rival trainer battle like I always do in every Pokemon game.
-Cell has a super fast growth rate while Jim has a super slow one :(
-On my way to Violet City where Jim leads to get me some solos.

-Healed at the Pokecenter before heading to Sprout Tower so I can have Jim solo more pokes.
-NO EVOLVING FOR YOU!!! (Jim)

-Heads back to Sprout Tower to get more solos under Jim's belt...........

-Fights old guy-------the HAX gods love me: 4 missed Hypnosis's in a row and no missed Tackles :D
-I Escape Rope out and train Jim up 2 more levels.
-You stupid worm!! If you can just be patient, you can evolve later!! Until then, STOP!!
-Jim is now lv 15 and gets a STAB move :D. What are you doing Jim?? Don't evolve yet!! Sprays him with some Raid in order to stop him............Why are you guys looking at me like that??
-Trains Cell to lv 13 because I want him to know Instant Transmission (Quick Attack)
-Goes to heal then hoes to the gym.
-3KO's the first trainer's only poke (Spearow) with Bug Bite earning Bug Buzz in the future.
-Cell kicks the snap out of the second trainer in his very first trainer battle to date.
-Fails to solo Falkner about 20 or so times with Jim before Ax gives me hope with a new evo restriction.
-Trains Cell a couple of levels now.....
-heals and goes back to the gym.
-Jim vs Pidgey: Jim's lv 16 STAB Bug Bite is a clean 3KO on a lv 9 Pidgey.

Also, thanks for your input. Any suggestions?
Also, thanks for your input. Any suggestions?
nevermind, end of page syndrome. please ignore me.
EDIT: The last page was a post with Axmaster saying I could get the 1000th post, and not realizing that there was another page already, I made a post saying I had the 1000th post.
Anyway, reserving a Poke for Hydrattler and MarshallLeRoy. I'll make a new post for them.
EDIT2: Oh, and I liked your update KS, point form is fine and you managed to make it quite funny and informative with that formatt. However, a list of which Pokemon are which and their restrictions would be useful for reference so we know what you're talking about without having to look up your old post.
EDIT3: Hydrattler's Poke will be a Jolteon, no one take it on me!

^??????
@Hydrattler, take a Flareon named Abused. As you are probably aware, Flareon is one of Game Freak's least favorite Pokemon, certaintly the least favorite of all the Eeveelutions. How can you tell? Because it doesn't have a decent physical STAB! Every other Eeveelution has a good STAB to match their superior stat, even Leafeon who needed the extremely rare Leaf Blade and got it, but not Flareon. Therefore, your Flareon will protest by not using any physical Fire move. In addition, it must know Frustration, and use it against Game Freak's favorite Pokemon, Pikachu, every time you see one.
Finally, Abused doesn't feel like beating up Pikachu is enough to justify all the pain he has to deal with, so he wants to take out all his frustration on Game Freak's favorite Elite 4 member. Have you guessed? It's the only one that is even mentioned before you meet them at the E4, Flint! Soloing Flint makes your Flareon feel much better with some sweet, sweet revenge...
EDIT: You can buy the Frustration TM from the Game Corner as well as the Team Galactic Building in Veilstone

What are your thoughts of my update Jimera? As the expert, I would like your input.
@Hydrattler, you said that you wanted one hard Eeveeolution right? I'll be giving you that then, in Meathead the Jolteon, which yes, I have given out before, and no, I don't care. I love this one and I'm giving it out again dammit.
Meathead is, well, a Meathead. He's too dumb to use special or status attacks, and as such must always use nothing but physical attacks, forever and ever. If you manage to solo Volkner with him, Meathead realizes that, holy shit, that lightning stuff he can do? He can actually do that without touching people! Holyshit! And as such, he can learn ONE special, electric type attack. And so you don't think you can get away with never using him, he MUST defeat at least 4 Pokemon in the Elite 4.
Enjoy!
Will edit with Marshall's in a moment, since this will be a new one I'll actually have to do research for it.
EDIT: @KS I edited my earlier post with my comments on your update
EDIT2: @Marshall, take Spike the Quilfish. Spike is a mean, lean, poison type machine and wants to show the world just how mean his poison spikes are. As such, he must always have Poison Sting and/or Toxic Spikes. Toxic Spikes must be learned ASAP (if you wish to replace Poison Sting with Toxic Spikes, that is ok). He wants to spread his poison around the world, so have him poison 30 trainer owned Pokemon via either Poison Sting or Toxic Spikes in order to be used in the Pokemon League. At the Pokemon League, have him Solo Koga, to show that he's the meanest Poison Type around. If you decide to do the Kanto region too, have him solo Janine as well, for the same reason. Finally, only item he can ever hold is the Poison Point, for reasons that should be obvious considering his description so far.
Enjoy!

@Jimera, I would have done that, but I used a phone to do that update.
Accepted! Great poke, hopefully I can find one easily, but he could really round out the team.
Will get a proper post up in the next few days with my challenge and restrictions.

EDIT: Shiznips! Images didn't go up, so you missed a huge part King Serperior (go back the end I saaaaay!)

Waterwarrior, this is the best one yet!!!!! :D. Awesome and crazy funny!!!
Both of you guys, just great updates :)
Speaking of updates, I just added the third chapter of mine... let's just say its long and shit really goes down. Also a disclaimer: I don't actually hate any of the people I said I hate in the update! You know I luv yah all right?
EDIT: @Waterwarrior, that was pure epic XD I love the creative cross-over, that was brilliantly well done. I'm glad to see Generator is doing well for you too :) keep it up!

Jimera, I'm the one that reads too far into everything, but a girl saying another girl is pretty means nothing. You apparently have never been on Facebook. Sadly, I could not feel any sympathy against Wattson.
a. because you only had to do it three times
b. Tough still listened to you, while the inverse of Wotter didn't exactly do that...
Yes, I am STILL bitching about KipKip's solo of Lenora. Axmaster hate union go! (loljk)
Great update, keep coming with them :D

Awesome as always Jimera :)
Hydrattler, take an Espeon named DeoxysA. It thinks it is a Deoxys-A, so it must have at least one physical attacking move to use its base 150+ attack stat. Additionally, it thinks all of its STAB attacking moves are Psycho Boost, so whenever it uses one it must switch out immediately to dodge the 2 Sp.A drop.
Have fun.
Have fun.

Haha, it's only been like, twenty pages on the old thread + forty one pages on this thread for me to bring up my Special SoulSilver Scramble, amirite? WELL, I was bored, so I decided to do the first gym. Actually, I did it a while ago, but no time like the present to mention it, eh? Since I couldn't be bothered to actually go back and do everything, I decided to just do a quick recap:
~Started my game, decided to be female and name myself LIGHTS 'cause Siberia like, JUST came out and I was kind of obsessing. Whoops.
~Picked Chikorita as my starter, found out it was a guy, named 'em Leaf. He's a sassy guy, which is quite awesomesauce for his job to support 24/7.
~Traveled through the drudgery of the Rival whose name escapes my grasp, and I reached Violet City at around level 11~ish?
~Grinded in the grass right next to Violet City until about level 13.
~Approached Sprout Tower! Damn, the Pokemon here were so much easier than I was anticipating.
~Exited at around 15 to near 16.
~Beat the trainers in Falkner's Gym Trainers. Offered an evolution, but forcibly declined.
~Decided to face Falkner. I just spammed Razor Leaf on his Pidgey, because Razor Leaf + STAB > Tackle without STAB. Went down in about three or four shots. MOMENT OF TRUTH: PIDGEOTTO. I was anticipating this to go badly. So while he Gusts for around 13/43 HP, I miss with PoisonPowder. Another Gust comes, and I miss again. I say screw it and use Synthesis twice after he Gusts me twice more. I PoisonPowder again, and it hits! So now I stall for a tiiiny little bit while he uses Gust. When he gets low on HP, I decide to just spam Razor Leaf, expecting his ever-so-obvious Roost. Eventually, the damage outweighs the amount he can heal with Roost, so I just take the final turn of Poison damage and he finally dies!
~Yay, I got the Zephyr Badge with only a Chikorita even though my rules stated a Pokemon BEFORE Falkner! OH WELL!
~Now, I'm dreading fishing for the Poliwag, because it's such a low rate. And anyways, having two Pokemon so early that you can't evolve them until they're around level 31 just plain SUCKS.
ANYWAYS, final team:
Leaf the Sassy male Chikorita!
Lv. 17.
Moveset:
~Tackle
~Razor Leaf
~Reflect (WAS Synthesis) (Locked)
~PoisonPowder.
All in all, I'd say it was a successful start to my team. But I'm prooobably not gonna go any farther until like, Thanksgiving Break. Thank y'all for the time given to actually try to read this!
