Thank you Celever! Only 5 more to go.
Serpent, I have one for you,
Diglett named Nod.
He must fight each Gym leader's first pokemon.
He cannot learn any TMs or HMs.
When not in a gym he may not be first into a fight.
If he faints, he cannot be used till the next gym.
He is allowed to evolve, though only once you have defeated 4 gyms with Nod in your team.
The Serpent, take Top Tier the Dratini. Top Tier is upset that Dratini are often deemed to be Low Tier trash, and wants to prove it's worth a spot among the greats in Top Tier. To do so, Top Tier decides to follow the in-game tiering guidelines precisely.
-Availability: Top Tier must be obtained as soon as possible.
-Stats: While Dratini (and later Dragonair) don't have the most impressive stats, Top Tier decides to remedy this by being the highest levelled Pokemon in your team as soon as possible.
-Movepool: Pokemon such as Alakazam and Dugtrio manage to be incredibly successful in-game with minimal, if any, TM support. As such, to prove it doesn't need any of the TMs it can learn, Top Tier can't be taught any TM moves until after it evolves, and even then it will only accept one.
-Power: Whenever one of your Pokemon (besides Top Tier) soloes a trainer (that is, one that isn't required to be soloed), Top Tier must attempt to solo the next trainer you fight.
-Type: Top Tier takes great pride in its typing and as such must solo at least 5 trainer-owned Pokemon whose STABs are resisted by Top Tier (with the exception of Electric-types due to how rare they are).
-Match-ups: Of course, the Gym Leader and rival battles are major parts of the game, and Top Tier has to prove its usefulness here. Because it doesn't want to steal the spotlight, Top Tier will settle with soloing at least one Pokemon in every Gym Leader/Rival/Elite Four battle that isn't already being soloed by someone else.
Have fun!
reserving for the serpent, solner and CJorex
@The Serpent, take Powder the Bulbasaur. Powder is a huge fan of SleepPowder and PoisonPowder, and must learn and keep both of them. He is such a huge fan of them that every time he enters a fight, he uses one of them. In the next fight, he uses the other on eof the two, so he effectively alternates the uses between the two of them. Powder is quite a nice little fellow besides his powder opsession, but if there is one thing he cannot stand, it are bad organizations and in particular their leader. As such, Powder wants to solo Giovanni every time you fight him. After his sense of justice is quenzed, so after beating Giovanni for good, he does not have to use either of the two powders at the start of a battle anymore, but he must still keep them in his movepool. To live up to his starters name, solo any one elite four member of choice.
CJorex, you are getting Scrambled the Illumise!!!
I don't know if you watch Marriland on youtube, but I sure do, and on his emerald nuzlocke he caught an Illumise and named it Omelette! Unfortunately, she did die during the nuzlocke - or so Marriland though! He just barely clung on to life, and is in such a state who she thought was her friends have given her the nickname scrambled omelette (Marriland releases his deadm that's how she went into the wild) so that's why you must call her Scrambled! Now, when Scrambled was in full health she had so much swag, she wore black glasses and knew Swagger! So, for your first 2 restrictions, Scrambled must always hold blackglasses and learn Swagger ASAP, the TM is in glitter lighthouse. Scrambled learned thief when she was in a healthier state, however as you need to be nimble and healthy to steal things, Scrambled may not learn thief, yet must still hold blackglasses! Scrambled perseveres though; he persevered when she almost died that fateful day and she perseveres now! She must solo any gym leader AFTER obtaining and learning swagger. Scrambled must use swagger on every of the pokemon the gym leader (or elite four member, if you want) it solos! Now, Scrambled is in such a mental state that she may have only 2 special attacking moves at one time which, including the permanent swagger, leaves it only one possible physically attacking move or 2 status moves! I think that's probably enough, but as a final challenge, Scrambled was "killed" by a Gyarados, so Scrambled must solo any Gyarados you see (this includes the red gyarados, yep, you don't get to re-catch the first shiny you ever saw back in gen 2 :P) If Scrambled isn't already out when a Gyarados leads a battle or you run into a wild one Scrambled must switch in and solo it. If a Gyarados makes Scrambled faint again then Scrambled may only learn 3 moves, and may only learn one special attacking move and then swagger, leaving room for either a physically attacking move or 2 status attacks. Oh, and he must get the 2 (unless you faint from a gyarados) special moves ASAP, as well as Swagger ASAP as mentioned above.
A pretty complicated challenge but... ENJOY!!! :D
