First update
Second update

I pretty much defeated every trainer you can find before facing Winona [sea routes between Petalburg, Dewford and Slateport, routes between Fortree and Lilycove, random rematches, etc.] and got my entire team to around level 37-38. Over the course of that, I managed to find four other Wild Tropius for Drehios to beat [I actually found six coz he got KO'ed two times by those stupid critical hit Razor Leafs]. I then proceeded to beat Winona, and as promised, solo'ing Winona's Altaria with my Loudred. Sure her Earthquakes brought Aria down to 6HP, but she pretty much Strength-ed her to oblivion. [I was very tempted to teach her the Ice Beam TM I got in Abandoned Ship, but I figured that'll make the challenge too easy.]

I then got to defeating Aqua atop Mt. Pyre, Magma in Mt. Chimney hideout and Aqua in their Lilycove hideout. I'm now ready to go to Mossdeep, and I'm debating on whether or not I'll be finishing all the sea routes first before battling Tate and Liza to gain levels. I probably will. XD


Current team:
Drehios / Swampert - Level 41 [Moveset: Tackle, Take Down, Mud Shot, Surf. Will soon replace Tackle for Dive then Waterfall. All challenges completed.]
Aria / Exploud - Level 41 [Moveset: Stomp, Strength, Astonish, Rock Smash. Will give her TMs once I feel like it XD All challenges completed.]
Division / Minun - Level 41 [Moveset: Quick Attack, Thunder Wave, Spark, Charge. Will replace Spark with Thunderbolt soon enough. All challenges completed.]
Stingy / Cacturne - Level 41 [Moveset: Faint Attack, Needle Arm, Cut, Spikes. Will replace Cut for something stronger. All challenges completed.]
Mrs Banana / Tropius - Level 41 [Moveset: Whirlwind, Magical Leaf, Fly, Body Slam. I think that'll be it until E4. All challenges completed.]
Dummanos / Shuppet - Level 41 [Moveset: Faint Attack, Night Shade, Will-o-Wisp, Curse. Only Pokemon left with a challenge. Raising its level high enough to learn Shadow Ball would be a blessing for sure.]

[Death n0t3]

Starting a 3rd gen scramble team for emerald. Not many rules but here they are.

-No legendarys.
-I want to start with blaziken. you can give me a challenge with him.
-Nicknames for all my pokemon.
-No pokemon of the same type.

My Team;

- Torchic, Must solo brawly to evolve to Combusken. Combusken solo 3 Gyrados to evolve to Blaziken. Nicknamed BlackBird.
- Ludicolo, nickname it Senor Pato.
- Natu named PastTense. Only evolve after i deafeat one of Tate and Liza's pokemon.
- Electrike, Have to solo 2 of Winona's Pokemon to evolve into Manectric. (need a nickname)
- Trapinch, Must defeat every kind of Pokemon in the desert before evolving to Vibrava. Must have 6 badges to evolve into Flygon. nickname sandra..
- Spinda, name it Panzy. Must stay within 5 level of the highest level Pokemon on my team.

[Adrexus]

Death Note take a Ludicolo, name it Senor pato. (Or shortened to Sr. if you like)

[Dramatic Melody]

Death n0t3 - Enjoy a Natu named "PastTense". You can only evolve it to Xatu after it successfully defeats two of Brendan/May's Pokemon in the Lilycove Battle.

[HydroSwampert]

Death n0t3 Take a Electrike that has to solo 2 of Winona's Pokemn to evolve into Manectric. Have fun and good luck!

[Ememew]

Death N0t3, have a Trapinch. Must defeat at least one of every species of Pokemon that lives in the Desert to evolve into Vibrava. Once a Vibrava, you must have at least 6 Badges before it may become a Flygon. For a nickname: Sandra.

[Its_A_Random]

Death N0t3, take a Spinda, name it Panzy. It must stay within 5 levels of the highest leveled member on your team at all times. It may never hold the Exp. Share, & it may only use attacking moves in battle.

Have fun.

[Winter02]

Death n0t3, I will give you restrictions for your Blaziken. It may not evolve from Torchic into Combusken before it has soloed Brawly. To evolve from Combusken, it must defeat three Gyarados all by itself, though it does not matter if they are wild or owned by trainers. Nickname it "Blazebird".

[LexSuicune]

Anyone in need of a team member? *0* I got a good one.

[Silent Conversation]

I'm pretty sure all the recent Scramble Challenge sign up-ers have their full teams, so I don't think anyone needs a Pokemon right now.

[just mew]

You can change it to Peliper but you must abide by a different restriction then.

You want it for the two most useful HMs? Well then you'll have to earn it. As you know, you get Surf after you have defeated Norman, so you must have Peliper solo him. In addition, you get fly after beating the weather institution and your rival, so you must solo all the grunts and admin in the weather institution without resting in the bed, and then you may rest in the bed and proceed to solo your rival.

Enjoy!

okay
So heres my final team:
-sableye with night shade
-treeko
-phanpy
-spinda
-elektrike
-wingull

Update number four! XD

[Emerald Playthrough Scramble Challenge]
- Division/Minun [Must always know Charge.]
- Drehios/Mudkip [Solo one of Brawly's Pokemon --> Marshtomp. Solo 5 Tropius --> Swampert. Must always know Surf.]
- Aria/Whismur [Female. Activate Soundproof against Roar/Uproar from non-Whismur-line Pokemon --> Lourded. Solo Winona's Altaria --> Exploud.]
- Stingy/Cacturne [Needle Arm should be its only Grass-type move.]
- [Mr./Mrs.] Banana/Tropius [Must always know Whirlwind.]
- Dummanos/Shuppet [Male. Beat Tate and Liza's Claydol --> Banette.]

First update
Second update
Third update

I decided on defeating every trainer I could find in all the sea routes of Hoenn before challenging the seventh gym. The currents west of Pacifidlog were, of course, very frustrating, but in the end they were one of the best sources of EXP in the entire game. [Still can't get over the Expert in the island who's cougaring over the Cooltrainer dude above her. Heh.]

As for the Tate and Liza battle, Mrs Banana was a god-send with her Ground immunity and Magical Leaves. Dummanos managed to beat Claydol and its Earthquakes, but after several tries. It took a critical hit Shadow Ball to defeat the damn doll. >_<

I then proceeded to defeat Magma in the Space Center [thankfully the Earthquakes from the Camerupts weren't as annoying], then proceeded to defeat Aqua in their hideout. Blahblahblah storyline blahblahblah Groudon vs. Kyogre blahblahblah. Don't get me wrong - I really like the Hoenn myth - it's just that I've seen it so many damn times.

It was in the Juan battle where Division took the spotlight. He Thunderbolted that Kingdra to oblivion, only being affected by the stupid Double Teams once. I really have newfound appreciation for this guy, and I can't wait to see how he'll do against Wallace.

I then battled the Meteor Falls trainers and the Match Call rematches before going to Ever Grande City, and right now I'm saved in front of the Victory Road entrance. The levels of my Pokemon are at an all-time high - I usually get here with Level 45 and 46 Pokemon. That'll be a big help when I do my habitual boosting of levels before E4.

Oh, and I decided that the end of this Scramble Challenge would be when I defeat Steven in Meteor Falls - which means after the E4, it's still not over. XD


Current team:
Drehios / Swampert - Level 48 [Moveset: Waterfall, Ice Beam, Mud Shot, Surf. All I'm waiting for is EQ so it can kick some E4 butt.]
Aria / Exploud - Level 48 [Moveset: Ice Beam, Strength, Flamethrower, Rock Smash. Shame about Rock Smash - it could use a better move.]
Division / Minun - Level 48 [Moveset: Thunderbolt, Thunder Wave, Flash, Charge. Flash is only there for Victory Road - I'll replace it with something like Return after I get to the Pokemon League.]
Stingy / Cacturne - Level 48 [Moveset: Faint Attack, Needle Arm, Cut, Spikes. No changes in moveset. Heh.]
Mrs Banana / Tropius - Level 48 [Moveset: Whirlwind, Magical Leaf, Fly, Body Slam. Same old same old.]
Dummanos / Banette - Level 48 [Moveset: Faint Attack, Shadow Ball, Will-o-Wisp, Thunderbolt. Debating about changing Faint Attack for something else, but not really sure what.]

[7 tyranitars]

@dramatic melody and here I thought I was closing in lol

[Jessie_James]

Aww what the heck..I'll do one with a good balanced team in LG, no trade evolutions plz
One of teammate will be Bulbasaur and not nicknaming anyone

-Bulbasuar>Ivysaur>Venusuar
(must take down Gary's team on it's own (at the 3rd Battle at Cerulian Bridge) to evolve to Ivysaur, and solo Blane before can be Venusaur)
-Pikachu>Raichu
(Must Solo Misty's whole gym before evoluition)
-Ditto
(Must transform in all the Pokemons of the Champion)
-Sandshrew>Sandslash
(3 lives, named Nuzlocke it gains a life each E4 it defeast)
-Clefairy>Clefable
(Evolve at bottom of Pokemon Mansion or Top of Pokemon Tower)
-Pidgey>Pidgeotto>Pidgeot
(must either go through Mt. Moon, Rock Tunnel, and Victory Road with only it in your party OR solo every rocket member (including Giovanni) you encounter )

Thanks for the team guys and gals

PS: Sorry have some comp issues this morning

[HydroSwampert]

Jessie_James Take a Pikachu that has to solo Misty's entire Gym and her team to be able to evolve into Raichu (Real original, right?). Have fun and good luck!

[Jessie_James]

Dang Rat lol thanks

[Pokémon Trainer Xande]

Jessie - Take a Ditto. Must Transform in all the pokémons of the champion, it doesn 't matter how much times you will get to the hall o fame

[Jessie_James]

That's gonna be a fun Pokemon to train

[Its_A_Random]

Jessie James, take a Sandshrew, name it Nuzlocke. This Sandshrew is a Nuzlocke-esque Pokemon with Three Lives, No Continues. Each time it faints, it loses a life. When it loses its last life, it is gone forever, however, you can catch another Sandshrew to replace it. Each time it solos a Gym Leader/E4 Pokemon, it gains a life.

Have fun.

[SilverMorty]

Jessie James take a Staryu that evolves after it defeats two different pokemon with a gem in its body.

[Dramatic Melody]

Jessie_James - Have fun with a Clefairy! You can only evolve it either at the peak of Pokemon Tower [where Mr. Fuji is] or at the bottom of the Pokemon Mansion [where you get the key to open Blaine's Gym]. Good luck!

7 tyranitars - Haha, it's pretty much all I've been doing for the past few days since I'm on break. You're not behind yourself anyway. XD
