    WHEN YOU ARE DOING A NO ITEM CHALLENGE MAKE SURE YOU POST IMAGES OF YOUR BAG BEFORE EVERY GYM LEADER.

    ...That would have been nice to know before I completed my damn run elements!!! In any case didn't need items since you gave me a team that had an advantage the whole game :v

    I'd like to do a monotype water run (Leafgreen) and also no-items in the same run.

    ACCEPTED

    Monotype water run + no items (COMPLETED):
    My bag before Brock and party after the fight.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    After Misty. Easy win from overleveled bite!
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/HIDE]

    I decided to skip Surge for now, as I didn't want to risk whiting out. I went to Celadon and got a Vaporeon, and trained it up in the game corner hideout. When it learned aurora beam, I challenged Erika. Was a pretty straightforward battle.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    After Erika, I went straight down to Surge and easily swept his team.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    I stopped by Silph just to grab Lapras, then I went down to Koga. He put up more of a fight than the other gym leaders so far, but still a pretty easy battle.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    Got Kabuto, so now I'm good to go! Sabrina stood no chance.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    Blaine is beaten, piece of cake.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    Giovanni went down as easily as Blaine.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    I am now ready for the E4. Here's my team and stuff.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    So I went through the League. Bruno and Lance roughed me up a bit, but otherwise this went pretty smoothly. Kabutops and Lapras were total bosses for me!
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    Whiteouts: 0
    [/HIDE]

    Starting up my scramble run, the team given to me is Charizard/Magneton/Primeape/Marowak/Fearow/Vaporeon.

    Scramble run (COMPLETED):
    Brock and misty are both taken care of. Had to grind a bit in this early part, since I already have half my team.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    Surge and Erika were easily dispatched, and my team is starting to look pretty good now.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    Vaporeon is quickly proving to be my star player, as I go through Koga and Sabrina.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    I took down Blaine and Giovanni, and I'm getting ready for the E4.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    Here's my trek through the league. I didn't have much of a problem, as this team is really good. Vaporeon has been my MVP in both challenges so far now, like a total boss!
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][/HIDE]

    Your bag should look a certain way, so it technically doesn't matter where you are as long as we see what it looks like in the end. Pictures are still important for that run though.

    Anyway, smashed through Brock 12 potions later, since tail whip and growl are awesome. Don't have pictures because I forgot, but I believe my pikachu's level 26 now, right before Misty. Need to get that Voltorb and Jolteon so I can start balancing out levels.

    I guess I'll try a scramble.
    YOUR TEAM WILL BE
    Venasaur/Seadra/Hitmonchan/Raichu/Pidgeot/Nidoking
    FIRE RED OR LEAF GREEN. YOUR CHOICE

    Updates:

    Beat Brock in 2 hits.
    *I was an idiot and I did save game without actually saving in game, then hitting save state instead of loading the game when I booted it up again, so I redid the screenshot of me completing the 1st gym. Forgot to do the nicknames, will do come Lavender Town.
    [​IMG][/HIDE]

    I swear I edited this with progress of after Misty and Surge but whatever. Here's after Surge:
    [​IMG][/HIDE]

    and after Erika. The Voltorb was just for use of Flash to get through Rock Tunnel.

    [​IMG][/HIDE]

    also fixed the nicknames.

    Can we even speed that challenge up? o_O...

    Yes, you may speed that challenge. The only challenge where you can not speed your game up is on the Speed Challenge

    This is my Scramble / No Item Challenge post. Team given to me: Blastoise / Vileplume / Flareon / Scyther / Rhydon / Tentacruel.

    Had a couple of close calls very early one - Pidgey critical hits almost wiped me out twice. I also survived the 2nd Rival battle with only 3 HP. Anyway, I made it to Brock.
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]
    Naturally, Brock died in 2 hits. Onwards to Misty!

    Mt. Moon was easy. I had to leave halfway through to heal PP of Water Gun, but other than that, I slaughtered everyone. Finally caught my second member after destroying Craig and Nugget Bridge with Mega Punch. I eventually got ready to take on Misty.
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]
    Oddish, soon to be renamed "Elmo", beat Misty in 3 turns, and evolved into Gloom. Another easy victory. The next challenge would be our hardest... possibly.

    This portion was pretty easy. Grinding up Elmo, beating Gary easily, getting Cut, getting to Surge. Healing is for pussies. I withdrew my Moon Stone so that the bag image looked different.
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]
    Surge was a dick. Voltorb was 2HKO'd and Pikachu OHKO'd by Acid. Raichu took 3 hits... out of 8 attempts. Thank fuck he was spamming Double Team.
    Erika is likely to be easy, as by the time I face her, my team will have doubled.

    I forgot the layout of Rock Tunnel, with the exception of the first and last portions. This will need to be improved if I'm to win the speed challenge. Anyway, made it through cos Grass and Water > Rock. Got to Celadon, immediately picked up Eevee, and made it a Flareon. I then lacked the money for Scyther, so I did the Rocket Hideout and got Fly and a HM Slave for Fly. I then sold all the items I got, and had enough for Scyther. Levelled up Scyther once for Wing Attack, healed up, and stormed the Celadon Gym. You wouldn't think my Scyther's just beaten all the Gym Trainers with it being at full health in this screenshot.
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]
    Victreebel and Vileplume each took two hits. I got hit by Stun Spore before Victreebel tied, and I almost lost Scyther to full paralysis + Acid. But nope, a comfortable win with Wing Attack. Now for Pokemon Tower, both Snorlax, Cycling Road, the Seaside Routes, and Fuschia.

    At the moment, I stormed my Rival with Scyther, Pokemon Tower with Scyther and Flareon, the Seaside Routes with all my Pokemon, and caught an asston of Pokemon in the Safari Zone, including my Rhyhorn. I also got Surf and Strength. Woot. Nicknamed Rhyhorn, gave it Rock Slide via the tutor in Rock Tunnel, beat up Cycling Road, and the Gym Trainers and now I'm at Koga.
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]
    Flareon took out everything before succumbing to poison as Weezing was sent out. Weezing proceeded to bs me, being healed by Hyper Potions twice and a Full Heal once. Luckily, Blastoise's Surf finished it off before I got into real trouble. ONWARDS TO SAFFRON!

    Before I left for Saffron, I caught my final member - Tentacool. It soon evolved, and I took it to Pokemon Tower to give it its nickname and to train it a bit. I then destroyed the Fighting Dojo with Scyther, and took on Silph Co. I remembered how to complete it in about 2 minutes, and then proceeded to destroy every trainer in the building, Giovanni included. I then took on the Gym trainers, sold all my shit, and took these screenshots:
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]
    Flareon destroyed all, and took down Alakazam... to half health. Zam then critted my Flareon. I got Blastoise to Strength it to death. Problem solved. Easiest Gym coming after the hardest dungeon.

    ...well, it would be the hardest dungeon if I didn't have 2 Water-types, a Poison-type, a Rock-type and the knowledge of how to beat it while only facing 1 trainer. Got the Secret Key, destroyed the Gym Trainers, and thought I'd start the Blaine fight with Flareon.
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]
    It didn't start too well tbh. Quick Attack did its job on Growlithe and Ponyta, but then I switched to Blastoise to OHKO Arcanine and Rapidash. Easy badge. Time for a detour through One, Two and Three Islands.

    Went to One Island with Bill, follow the quest and completed Two and Three Islands, went back after Bill left to Kindle Road and Mt Ember, and then came back to Viridian City. Giovanni's Gym Trainers are the toughest, manging to KO a couple of my Pokemon. Still, Blastoise vs Giovanni. Let's see how this goes.
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]
    5 turns and 5 Surfs later, and I've got my eighth badge. BRING ON THE ELITE FOUR!

    lol
    5 days later, and almost 20 levels worth of grinding later, and I'm done.
    Screenshot of bag before entering E4 and of CHAMPION SCYTHER and co. Scyther crit his way through for me. I love this guy.
    [secret][​IMG]
    [​IMG][/secret]

    Seriously though, that Scyther beasted it. I grinded for ages, and luckily Jack got off his lazy arse and outsped Lorelei's team. Well, until he died to Jynx anyway. His crit on Lapras was superb though, and that set the tone. Bruno was a cakewalk, as was Agatha... except her Arbok, which took out Elmo and Jesus (with a crit). Then there was Lance. His Gyarados killed Walter, and then I decided to go to Andy the Scyther. My god, was Lance a dumbass or what? Got to +6, destroyed Gyarados, crit Aerodactyl with Slash (lol'd at that), and then swept Lance. Between Andy and J.J., I had Craig's team snookered... or so I thought. I had a panic attack when Andy didn't take out Alakazam in one Wing Attack, but then breathed a sigh of relief when it used Reflect and died the next turn. Shockingly, it came down to my Pokemon vs Craig's Gyarados. Ugh. I tried to Bite my way to victory, but his Gyarados Thrashed at J.J. and took it down. Andy's fate would have been the same if it didn't decide "LOL FUCK YOU" and crit his Gyarados and won me the Scramble and No Item challenges. T'was awesome.


    NEW POST TIEM. Gonna go for Monotype (normal), and gonna try and combine it with No-evo.

    Elements I would like your Attention please

    Poison seems overdone, may I do the scramble? I have to have a fire red team though, because I don't have LeafGreen Cartridge.

    I am also cancelling my poison challenge, not working very well. (Grinding isn't workign at all)

    And after/before the scramble I'd like to do a monowater with no items.

    YOUR TEAM WILL BE
    Blastoise/Arcanine/Nidoking/Hitmonchan/Raichu/Pidgeot
    FIRE RED

    Yeah you can. It applies to all Monos that aren't Grass, Poison, Fire, or Water (starters).

    I'd be great to see a leaderboard on the OP, to compare runs and whatnot~

    So for the Scramble Challenge say i get Dragonite or some other hard to catch poke. Would i have to go catch it? or could i just not use that slot in my party?

    Oh fine I'd like to do the Scramble Challegne (there i formally asked can i haz team?)

    Venasaur/Seadra/Hitmonchan/Raichu/Fearow/Nidoking

    http://imgur.com/09m1vGP << Team post Surge. Yes i know im terrible for abusing in game trades but im doing LG and its a 1% chance to find nidoran male :/. Anyway brick break on Nidoking OHKO'd everything

    http://imgur.com/vhVzRAc << Team After a scare from Koga. after an hour of trying to find a horsea it took me another to train it from level 8 to 45. Seeing as how i have no SE moves on Poison besides dig which is useless I wanted to overlevel a bit.


    http://imgur.com/FhfZcIW << Team after the easiest Gym battle yet. So I thought her Zam was level 50 and was worried until i found out it was 43. So it just took a few surfs and a return from Superman to win me my 6th Badge

    I'll do the unevolved and Scramble on seperate roms.....maybe if I have enough time after that I'll figure a mono but those two first.

    Venasaur / Nidoqueen / Pidgeot / Jolteon / Arcanine / Lapras
    YOU MUST PLAY FIRE RED

    I got to Cerulean and when you go up Gary has become glitched on both games. Restarting only changes the glitch so I can't win without cheating. Unfortunately I'll have to drop out till I figure out what went wrong.

    So I forgot to post updates on my Mono-Unevolved-Normal run.

    Well, Youngster Joey binned his Charmander and swapped to his Adamant Rattata, which is in the top percent of all Rattata. After grinding to level 19, Brock still laughed at him. Next time around, Joey was ready. He used Tail Whip a couple of times, and that resulted in Onix being 3HKOd. Thank fuck it didn't use Rock Tomb again.

    He then stormed through Mt. Moon, and got to Misty. Staryu died easily. Starmie hit twice with Water Pulse, leaving TopPercent at 1 HP and confused. Despite that, he still hit with Hyper Fang and won the battle.

    Oh, and we also got a Jigglypuff, Pidgey, Spearow (which was traded for Farfetch'd, who is now boxed), Clefairy and Meowth along the way, but who gives a shit? Death fodder is death fodder - in fact, the Pidgey allowed me to get a bunch of money. Main reason for the capture of these Pokemon - and several others - was getting up to 20 Pokemon caught. I'm sick of having to press B several times every time Rattata levels up lol.

    Anyway, I beat Surge in a few hits. Dig was useful. I then went through Rock Tunnel, having to Revive my Rattata halfway through when I tried to use Dig on a Trainer's Geodude, and he hit me with Magnitude 10. Got the TM from the Route 12 lookout, and went to Celadon, where I got the rest of Rattata's moveset. Return / Shadow Ball / Ice Beam / Thunderbolt. lgi.

    Erika died in 3 turns. Return is OP. Rocket Hideout was annoying cos they kept Poisoning my Rattata. LOL GUTS though. Stormed through it. Then I went to Pokemon Tower, and destroyed everything with Ice Beam and Shadow Ball.

    I then stormed the sea route to Fuschia, followed by Cycling Road. I then got Surf and Strength, as well as catching a Rhyhorn for Strength and a Dratini for Surf. I then took on Koga. His Muk survived a Return and used Toxic. LOL GUTS though. OHKO'd everything.

    Went from Fuschia to Seafoam, then flew to Pallet. Went from Pallet to Seafoam via Cinnabar, and then flew to Cinnabar. Seriously, fuck Seafoam Islands, I'm never going there again. Pokemon Mansion is still easy as shit, although I forgot that Magneton exists and my moveset means I'm fucked against Magneton. Oh well. At least Blaine went down in 4 turns - that crit on Arcanine helped.

    I did the Three Island quest before going to Silph. Silph Co was boring. Took out every trainer, including Rival, without so much as taking a single bit of damage. I then went and destroyed the Fighting Dojo and Sabrina. Seriously, this Rattata is in the top percent of Rattata.

    Before I faced Giovanni, I went to Mt Ember and took on the few trainers there and got a few items. I then went to Giovanni's Gym, and took out everyone. Giovanni went down to 2 Ice Beams and 3 Returns. Too easy. Rival caused me a little trouble cos Exeggcute survived Ice Beam and proceeded to Para the shit out of me, but otherwise another easy win. lgi VR. I'm Level 82 at this point lol. Don't think I'll need to use Doduo as well, but if we do, I can always fodder the Doduo in the E4.

    Victory Road was tough, but I made it through - with 5 HP to spare. Jeez, that was too close.

    The Elite Four though. Oh my lord.

    Lorelei was alright. Took about 8 turns and a couple of Full Restores, but nothing major.
    Bruno died in 6 turns. Machamp used Bulk Up and had Sitrus Berry take him out of the red, so Bruno didn't use a Full Restore.
    Agatha hurt a bit with her Arbok, but otherwise it was an easy 7 turn win - her Gengar missed a Hypnosis.
    Lance was quite easy too. 9 turn victory - his Aerodactyl and Dragonair each took 2 turns to kill, his second Dragonair full para'd me for a third turn.
    But Mikey. My Rival. OH MY GOD.

    Pidgeot used Aerial Ace whilst I 2HKO'd with Return. Alakazam was OHKO'd by Return. Exeggutor was 2HKO'd by Shadow Ball, and it used Giga Drain during its surviving turn.

    Then came the tough three. I got really lucky facing these three.
    I had to stall Rhydon out of his Earthquakes. Once I had, I was hit with 2 Scary Faces. This would prove to be instrumental in increasing the difficulty of the other two battles. Regardless, I 2HKO'd with Ice Beam.
    Arcanine was a matter of hoping he rolled low or used Extremespeed. It took about 20 turns and me using about 13 Full Restores to Mikey's 3, but Arcanine went down. If only I was faster and able to hit before Flamethrower did...
    Blastoise... I had to start with a Full Restore. I'm glad I did. Hydro Pump took a massive chunk out of me. The same happened next turn. Third turn, he missed as I restored, so I thought I'd attack. Thunderbolt hit as he used Rain Dance... oh shit. Now he's faster AND can OHKO. Turn 4 comes - he misses with Hydro Pump, and I hit with Thunderbolt again... and I managed to paralyse him. I breathe a sigh of relief as I use Thunderbolt for a third and final time and beat the Monotype and Unevolved Challenges with just a Rattata. My lord, I'm never doing that again.

    Proof of success below:

    Level 96 by the time I beat it. I'll be doing the Speed Challenge when I get the chance to.

    Since no steel answering:

    @ Beavers just the first time through. All of these end after beating the E4 the first times.

    @ Insane Soul, no you have a choice the scramble however has to be done with however it's assigned.

    Scramble is the only one that's actually assigned, as you can do any version for the other runs (the main reason being the Pokemon obtainable, such as Growlithe in FR and Staryu in LG).

    I finished all the challenges last week, but I'm probably redoing Speed yet again as I want a better time.

    I would just like to say that I have a newfound respect for blitz as I have been listening to Gorillaz for the past 5 days and can't seem to stop.

    Anyway, I'm all the way to Blaine now, although I still haven't beaten him yet. Misty was of course easy, Surge was beaten by Tail Whip/Dig Pikachu, and Rock Tunnel was utter hell because of Geodude and the move Magnitude. They shouldn't be allowed to roll magnitude 9 every other turn. Got to Celadon and beat the game corner rocket hideout easily enough, doubled back to Lavender and got the Poke flute, then picked up my Jolteon and trounced Erika. I then realized I didn't pick up the bike so I got the tea and went through the border guys to go to Cerulean and get it. Before fighting Koga I went through Cycling Road and then on that route that connects Lavender to Fuschia or however you spell it for some extra experience, and by the time I was done everyone was around 45 when beating Koga's Muk.

    So, after that I went to the Power Plant and picked up a Magnemite, as well as Zapdos. Wasn't that hard to catch since I had 2 things with thunder wave and a ton of ultra balls. After Zapdos I took the time to grind up money for Thunderbolt TMs, which brought my party to this after Sabrina:
