Venipede can't learn Baton Pass --'
Get Emo, a very emo Emolga. Due to its sheer emo-ness, it must faint at least once in every single gymleader/rival battle. When against a non-important battle, if it is out it must switch out using Volt Switch, unless you are doing the Nimbasa Gym(where you don't have access to VS).
However, once it gets to LV 38, it will get Encore and his personality does a 180: it is extremely hyperactive and must be kept above the red whenever possible. It must also keep Encore.
Lastly, it has to be found on Route 16. You are allowed to kill any Audino you see though. :)
If your first condition means Pokemon like Sawk, Emolga and Sigilyph are illegal, use this:
Lillipup, name it Toothache. It always has a toothache and thus cannot use Bite, Crunch, or the elemental fangs.
Okay Hobbers, take a Tepig for your starter. Soft-reset for a -Attack nature, then solo Cress and Lenora (the latter without using Fighting moves) to evolve to Pignite. To become Emboar, it must solo Clay and either Brycen or Iris. As Emboar, it must solo Caitlin of the E4.
Just posting to say that Caitlin is a real bitch to deal with. I was out of revives, and Psychic would 2HKO my Gigalith. I ended up using 30 or so Hyper Potions/Max Potions/Full Restores to PP stall her out of Psychic PP, lol.
Good luck with that Emboar, Hobbers. You'll need it.
Also, if Galladiator doesn't mind, call that Tepig "Fat MixApe".

Okay, this shouldn't be that bad.
Take a Lillipup on the first route. It must solo the first Gym's Lillipup, the second Gym's Herdier, and Bianca's Stoutland on Route 8 to show it's the coolest Lillipup/Herdier/Stoutland ever.
It must always be the second-highest leveled pokemon on your team, and solo two Gym Leader's Main Pokemon. Any two, your choice.
Name it Murrando, the Japanese name. I have a Murrando on my pirated version, and I like it. Should be good for your team.

@ironman, sweet. Been wanting to try out a Mienfoo since I met it.
That makes six. Gonna get started in like five minutes or so. But before I do...
@Hobbers, you get Kingly , the Frillish! Kingly has a vivid imagination and believes that he is next in line to become the king of all Pokemon. To make sure this belief is never shattered (as he would probably never be able to battle again), he may only ever be used against Pokemon of a lower level. Also, to become king (evolve), he must solo every trainer in the 8th gym, to eliminate anyone who might challenge his rise to power.
To review: Kingly, the Frillish. Must be male, only can fight Pokemon of a lower level, solo all gym trainers in 8th gym to evolve. Enjoy~.

So I just beat Pokemon White, and against all better judgement, I decided to do a Scramble challenge for my second play through.
Rules:
No Tepig, Petillil, Sandile, Sigilyph, Tirtouga, Joltik, or their evolutions. That was my team in the first play through of White and I don't like repeating pokemon between play throughs.
Nothing that requires breeding. I never was a fan of breeding in the games, and frankly, I don't have the patience.
Allow me to evolve the pokemon, dont make me keep em unevolved for the whole thing.
Be nice, I'm new at the Scramble challenge =)
Ok, let's see what you guys got.
Team:
Dark Ray-@Gneiss, the lag is killing me so you get a ferroseed named "Slowgon". By the E4 it must have a moveset of:
-Curse, because that's what I do when smogon is lagging because it makes you slower.
-Gyro Ball, because it becomes more powerful the slower you are.
-Bulldoze, because it makes your opponent slower.
-Thunder Wave, because it also makes your opponent slower.
Togelover- Trubbish called Stocks. This Trubbish loves the move Stockpile so much, it must use it three times every time it is sent out against an important trainer (N, Cheren, Bianca, Gym Leader etc). It also is a little thief, so it must use the move Thief to steal another Trubbish's Black Sludge AND have that particular Black Sludge on in order to use any kind of move at all.
EEVEE3's mon (not quoting it cause his challenge is ridiculously humongous ^.^)
Galladiator-"Jynxdoof" the Oshawott has no restrictions until Castelia City; here, it must solo Burgh. After that, it may not know any attacking moves except either Surf or Megahorn (as a Samurott; it may forget one for the other). It must use this attack to solo either one E4 member OR half each of N's and Ghestis' teams.
DetroitLOLcat- This Excadrill loves going on Smogon because he plays competitive Pokemon, but is scared that he was nominated for Ubers twice. To prove that he's OU, he cannot attack a single pokemon that is on PO's Wifi OU list (as of last month). It cannot attack a Mienshao, Terrakion, Whimsicott, Zoroark, Landorus, Scrafty, Thundurus, Haxorus, CHandelure, Volcarona, Hydreigon, Jellicent, Reuniclus, Excadrill, or Ferrothorn.
Its A Random-Muzzle the Pansear. After the second badge, Muzzle becomes Muzzled, & therefore, it cannot use moves requiring the use of its mouth. Such moves include...(list of moves).
Alright, got my team, I'll get on it =)
Thanks for going relatively easy on me, guys.

@Gneiss, You get a variable challenge!
Add together all the numbers in your Trainer ID and divide by 2 until you get a route number that you can access before 1st E4.
You must catch the first pokemon that you see on the route.
Challenge determined as follows... (Inside Spoiler because this is freaking huge.)
Except for one challenge, must be nicknamed ???.
If your pokemon is genderless, then you may select from either gender challenge.
Have fun!

@Togelover I'm a bit confused about the second part of the challenge. I need to use Thief to get a Black Sludge from another Trubbish and keep it equipped before I can use any other moves ever?
@Eevee Wow, that's an...intense challenge. You really thought that through =)

Gneiss gets an Oshawott. I'll edit in the restrictions soon (I'm on my phone atm).
EDIT: "Jynxdoof" the Oshawott has no restrictions until Castelia City; here, it must solo Burgh. After that, it may not know any attacking moves except either Surf or Megahorn (as a Samurott; it may forget one for the other). It must use this attack to solo either one E4 member OR half each of N's and Ghestis' teams.

So that essentially means that you have a 2.5% chance of being able to advance with the challenge if your Trubbish doesn't have a Black Sludge to begin with. Yay you.
Also, I've edited my post with your challenge, in case you didn't see it.
You get an Excadrill! Catch the first Drilbur you see!
This Excadrill loves going on Smogon because he plays competitive Pokemon, but is scared that he was nominated for Ubers twice. To prove that he's OU, he cannot attack a single pokemon that is on PO's Wifi OU list (as of last month). It cannot attack a Mienshao, Terrakion, Whimsicott, Zoroark, Landorus, Scrafty, Thundurus, Haxorus, CHandelure, Volcarona, Hydreigon, Jellicent, Reuniclus, Excadrill, or Ferrothorn.
Also, it cannot use the moves Swords Dance, Rock Slide, Earthquake, or X-Scissor.
Not that bad IMO.

Ok guys, I beat White a few days ago and I'm ready to run another playthrough.
Let's have a scramble that's not too terribly difficult. I'd like to use Tepig as my starter and don't want to use Darumak since I've used it in all my playthroughs, same as Scrafty and Sandile. So, have at it. :)

jwoozie, take a Cofagrigus, name it Ghestis, turns out this is Ghestis' Cofagrigus, so it must know its moveset before the E4, consisting of Shadow Ball/Protect/Toxic/Psychic sorry, no, make that a move of your choice (Psychic is unobtainable pre-E4). You must capture it as a Cofagrigus & it must solo Ghestis' Cofagrigus (Meaning, you must say no to Zekrom when you catch it).
Have fun.
EDIT: Since Gneiss is Nice still needs one Pokemon (iirc), he gets Muzzle the Pansear. After the second badge, Muzzle becomes Muzzled, & therefore, it cannot use moves requiring the use of its mouth. Such moves include...

@jwoozie, smogon doesn't seem very laggy right now so you get an emolga named "FastFurius" (aware of the misspelling). This emolga wants to be the fastest emolga in the WORLD!, so by the E4 it must have this moveset:
-Electro Ball, because you need to be fast to put it to good use.
-Quick Attack, because it's the fastest attack emolga gets.
-Double Team, because the description mentions moving rapidly.
-Agility, so it can outspeed everything and increase the power of its Electro Balls.
Good luck.

@jwoozie, you get a Tirtuoga. It wants to be as strong as possible, so it must learn and keep curse and shell smash by the E4. In order to mitigate the speed inconsistency, it must either run aqua jet in order to go first without speed, or rain dance because it believes its ability is swift swim. The fourth moveslot can be any move of your choice. Also, it must always hold blackglasses. Name it Raphael
Jwoozie gets a Tepig. This Tepig, which will by the way be named "BBQ Time", can never know or use physical moves of any kind (when it has a choice; for example, you can't really use anything but Tackle in your first battles, but it must immediately spam Ember when it learns it). Solo Castelia Gym to evolve to Pignite, and Icirrus Gym to evolve to Emboar.
Edit: to be clear, solo the ENTIRE gyms, not just the leaders.
Edit: to be clear, solo the ENTIRE gyms, not just the leaders.
jwoozie, take a Woobat. This Woobat shows affection for everyone as much as it can, so it must always keep Attract, and Heart Stamp. However, it is easily blown away, and so, hates wind. Thus, it cannot use any moves involving wind, i.e. Gust, Air Cutter, Air Slash etc.
