At first what you said about that certain Psychic Pokemon confused me. "Wait, isn't Noel after Kik... oh right. Subs." I'll put that on my list... but damn the grinding is gonna be brutal >.> Azumarill does seem to be a popular choice, but I wanna try to go for that Mudkip, since I'm about to go to the Wastelands now. I'll see if I can find a Butterfree too. Right now I've benched Onix, but I'm gonna keep Graveler around for his Ground moves. Gonna need more than just Meowstic I think. Might try to track down that Zorua again as well.

As of right now, I've saved the real Daycare Couple, benched Kricketune and am now trying to train an Onix and Geodude to fight Shelly. My luck with the Unown, however, is pretty crap (they seem to always have HP Water or Grass, luckily Onix has Sturdy, but Geodude doesn't). Think I'm just gonna go back to those caves near the Beryl Ward to train them, since they're filled with flying types around their levels. If there are any other training spots I should know about let me know!

I thought up another special run for Pokemon games, although this one in particular requires you to hack in one Pokemon. Just one. So if you're not into hacking in Pokemon to your games, disregard this. Now without further ado, I present to you: THE CHOSEN ONE CHALLENGE The rules are simple: Choose your favorite legendary Pokemon. Any legendary you want. Could be as simple as Zapdos, or as powerful as the almighty Arceus itself. Now, go to a site that lets you create a Pokemon and send it to any game of your choice. The legendary must be Level 1 and have the proper moves it should have at level 1. It's ability also has to be legit, but the nature, IVs and EVs are up to you. However, you can't give it a hold item when creating it. Now, start a new game on the desired game you want to do this challenge in. Start it like normal and get to wherever the first Pokemon center is so you can transfer your legendary. Once you get the Legendary, it will become THE ONLY POKEMON YOU CAN USE IN BATTLE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE STORY. That's right, you can only use the Legendary you in battle. You're allowed to have separate HM Slaves, but you can still only use that Legendary in battle. In the event that you have to do a double battle, it's fine to use the Legend and and an HM Slave, but that's the only exception. So, good luck and have fun.

Thanks Sheep, you're a life saver!

Hey, how do you get the Onix from the hiker event in Peridot? I see a hiker there, but he doesn't do anything. I need that Onix to beat Shelly. Also do Geodudes appear on a certain floor under the grand stairway or are they just rare?

Thank you guys for the ideas. I was thinking of using Mudkip as my Water Type, since I heard I can get one in the Wasteland. I might replace him with Clauncher once I get that far. As for Swinub, I'll check it out. Archeops also seems pretty good, so I'll grab him too. Just one question: When can I start breeding? I already beat the Team Meteor guys posing as the Daycare couple, but now what?

So, right now my team is pretty solid. However, some of my guys will become meh later on, and I'm not sure what to replace them with when they do become meh. I just beat the double battle against ZEL and Taka, so my team right now is: Combusken Meowstic Loudred Kricketune Emolga I was thinking of grinding my Mareep to replace Emolga after Kiki's Gym, but I also heard I can get an Elekid later on. Elekid is pretty much my favorite Electric type, but he might be too far in the game to get, because I want a reliable Electric type. Also I'm planning on tracking down that Zorua for Shade's Gym, along with grinding a Noibat for Noivern. Any other suggestions to add to my team or details about the Pokemon I wanna get would be greatly appreciated!

In Fire Red I ran into a Shiny Geodude... but I didn't have any Pokeballs q_q

Wow, thanks for all you're help guys! I'll be sure to try these members out. (and yeah I chose Torchic because I wanna get back to where I was at a generally fast pace )

Well, I had to start over from the beginning. Are there any new Pokemon I can find early on? I already have Torchic, Espurr and Whismur, and I know I can get an Electrike but I don't know how exactly. Any ideas?

Been a while since I've been here. So today I thought I'd try to pick up my copy of Reborn on my new computer. Turns out I have to start over. From the beginning. Oooooooh noooooooo. ._.

Alright, just did it on an alt file and got Fennekin (with Magician and sweet IVs on the first try no less). EDIT: Made a third file just for fun, and got Fennekin again! Looks like the fox might be my spirit pokemon, lol.

Glad you guys like my idea! Truth be told, I almost never abandon my starter pokemon, unless I'm IV breeding/EV training or whatever, but other than that they never leave my side. I'm about to try this out for myself as well, I'll post back here when I find out what my starter is.

I made up a special rule for anyone who wants a little spice in their next playthrough. Here it is: When you are in the room to select your starter, save the game, then check your Trainer Card. When you open up the Trainer Card menu, look at your ID Number in the top right, this will be the key factor in what starter you'll have in this run. The first number will determine what type it'll be: 1-3 = Grass 4-6 = Fire 7-9 = Water 0 = Your choice The next four numbers will determine what generation it's from (0 counts as an Even): All Odd = Gen 1 All Even = Gen 2 2 Odds > 2 Evens (2 Odds add up to more than the Evens) = Gen 3 2 Evens > 2 Odds = Gen 4 3 Odds = Gen 5 3 Evens = Gen 6 In the event that 2 Odds and 2 Evens add up to the same number, you get to choose the Generation. Example: If my ID Number is 23456, that means my type is Grass, and since the 2 Evens add up to be greater than the Odds, that means my Generation is 4. So my starter would be Turtwig! Now, for the Faithful part... Once you figure out what starter you're supposed to have, you HAVE to get that exact starter (you may soft reset as much as you want to get better IVs, Nature, and Ability, as long as you still get the proper starter). You MUST use this Starter for the whole game, no switching it out of the party for something else (unless it's for something else that's not battling, like breeding or whatever). You have to at least have your starter in your party (don't have to use them, they just have to be with you) in every battle you fight. And yes, EVERY battle. One last rule that only applies to a Nuzlocke: Your starter will get 3 lives, refusing to die. But once that final life is gone, you have to release/permanently box it like normal. And that's it, come back here and post what starter you get, and good luck!

Welp, I was able beat Noel finally. Thanks for all your help guys!
