Another newcomer: Mr. Mime, with Lv22 and featuring Confusion, Psychic, and Barrier.
Charmeleon is now Lv22 but -still- has the same old moves.

Re: The Lost Tower's Travelog

Day 1, 10:45 pm, Saur, Team Savages

Wow, what a day it has been. I woke up by a torchic named Blaze, and I was a Bulbasaur! After the confusion, a Butterfree came up to us and asked her to save her son! We did it, then Blaze asked me to form a rescue team. We became Team Savages. Not much to report today, so bye!

Re: The Lost Tower's Travelog

Ooo, I like this thread! I recently restarted my PMD Blue Rescue. I became an Eevee with my partner being a Torchic. I just defeated Rayquaza yesterday! Here's my current team:

133.png
@
Ribbon.png
{Special Band} | Lv. 31
~ Attract
~ Sand-attack
~ Quick Attack
~ Bite

256.png
@
Ribbon.png
{Special Band} | Lv. 32
~ Fire Spin
~ Fire Blast
~ Double Kick
~ Quick Attack

147.png
@ Nothing | Lv. 30
~ Slam
~ Twister
~ Thunder Wave
~ Wrap


I just recruited Dratini, need to fix up its moveset and evolve it. The problem is, I fainted in Wyvern Cave and I'm waiting for someone to rescue me! If I don't get rescued I'll have to recruit Dratini all over again... so VM me if you can help! :D

I plan to evolve Eevee into Espeon and replace Quick Attack with Psybeam (Attract and Sand-Attack are such amazing moves in this game, especially for boss battles). Bite is for other Psychic pokemon but I'm going to replace it if I can find a special move to hit steel types or dark types.

@SharKing, it's kind of hard to say since Elekid has great coverage as does Empoleon, but you do have two Ground weak Pokemon (assuming you'll evolve Prinplup to Empoleon). But both of your Pokemon have SE moves against Ground. You don't really have anything to take Fighting attacks for Empoleon. Misdreavus/Gastly/Drifloon are immune to fighting and ground, so they come to mind.

In Gold, I saved next to Ho-oh, due to me trying to catch it, then I noticed that I forgot to change the clock in New Bark Town due to DST...

Re: The Lost Tower's Travelog

Dear Log

I am currently moving silently in the shadows of Silph Co., hoping Rocket Grunts don't notice me. Especially not Jessie and James. They are annoying. I intend to defeat Giovanni, I suspect he must be here in the building, with this big of an invasion. I have also heard rumors of a Lapras inhabiting here, but I have not seen it. Here is my party, an early Hall of Fame:

Chameleon
Wartortle
Pidgeotto
Pikachu
Hitmonchan
Snorlax

I should head off to the 'Center, my Snorlax and Hitmonchan have fainted and Pikachu has almost passed out. Good night, and good luck to the Silph Co. sincerely.

Re: The Lost Tower's Travelog

ARGH!!!!! I had gotten the HM Surf, the Gold Teeth and a whole bunch of Safari Zone Pokemon, like level 36 Nidoran. I forgot to save! Now I am back in Celadon where I last saved, in front of the second Snorlax. I had to also beat the sucker all over again!
 
Re: The Lost Tower's Travelog

Dear Log

I beat up my idiotic rival, Gary in a heated battle. Turns out he evolved his Eevee into a Flareon. I also explored the Safari Zone, but I haven't got the missing teeth or the HM Surf yet. I also took down Jessie and James, and someone gave me a Lapras. Here is my party:

Charmeleon Lvl 31 Cut, Dig, Mega Punch, Ember
Wartortle Lvl 26 Bubblebeam, Mega Punch, Tail Whip, Bite
Pidgeotto Lvl 26 Whirlwind, Sand-Attack, Double-Edge, Fly
Pikachu Lvl 30 Thunderbolt, Take Down, Double-Team, Thunder Wave
Hitmonchan Lvl 31 Submission, Counter, Comet Punch, Agility
Snorlax Lvl 33 Psychic, Amnesia, Rest, Headbutt

Yes, I know, kind of powerful. Should I also note I beat the Fuchsia City leader, Koga?
 
Re: The Lost Tower's Travelog

Well, sorry I haven't updated. But I beat Yellow! I beat Sabrina with ease, but Blaine was just too difficult. The only reason I am not still on him, actually, is because I caught the Legendary Bird named Zapdos. I also, surprisingly to me, took down Giovanni easier, and I have literally destroyed Lorelei, and during the battle, an evolution occurred; and Charmeleon, after taking down her Jynx with suprising difficulty, became a Charizard! Must admit he looks like an orange dragonfly in the back, but he knows Fire Blast so I won't complain. Oh, I forgot to mention I caught Moltres in Victory Road, but I didn't use him. I took down Bruno's two Onix with Wartortle, who still is a Wartortle, and Zapdos also pretty much blew the rest up with Drill Peck. Agatha wasn't too hard, except when Zapdos kept electrocuting and pecking itself. But Lance is a different story. Gyarados had to take too of Pikachu's Thunderbolts, but thankfully it likes Dragon Rage. Dragonairs got Drill Pecked. It took three Pokemon to take down Aerodyctal , and Dragonite missed Thunder so my Wartortle got a critical hit Blizzard, and Zapdos finished the brawl off. The Champion was Gary, my rival. But he was actually easier then Lance. I got a critical hit Bubblebeam on Sandslash, Snorlax crashed into Alakazam's poor defense, Exeguttor got Zapdos's Drill Peck, Cloyster tasted Thunder, Magneton received a holiday gift of Charizard's Dig, and Flareon got beat up by my whole party, each taking turns. Only three Pokemon fainted. I also caught Articuno, and I entered Cerulean Cave, and taught the specimen that escaped Cinnabar, Mewtwo, a lesson about being in a Master Ball.

Here is my current party:

Wartortle Lvl 34 Bubblebeam, Mega Punch, Toxic, Blizzard
Pikachu Lvl 35 Thunderbolt, Take Down, Double-Team, Thunder Wave
Snorlax Lvl 36 Body Slam, Rest, Surf, Psychic
Charizard Lvl 36 Fire Blast, Dig, Slash, Cut
Zapdos Lvl 55 Thundershock, Drill Peck, Thunder, Fly
Mewtwo Lvl 70 Psychic, Barrier, Swift, Recover
 
Re: The Lost Tower's Travelog

I beat the Elite Four a second time with all my legendary Pokemon, Snorlax, and of course Pika Pika! Actually, Pikachu never participated. Mewtwo, I think, was the only one that always battled. Zapdos and Moltres took down Lorelei, Articuno and Zapdos also beat Bruno, and Snorlax endeavored during Agatha's fight. Of course, everyone (except Pikachu) had to battle Lance and dun dun dun... Gary. But now, I will focus on Silver and mostly train Pikachu and Snorlax when I do play Yellow, since I made a choice of replacing my current party with:

Articuno Lvl 50 Ice Beam, Peck, Fly
Zapdos Lvl 56 or 55? Drill Peck, Thundershock, Fly, Thunder
Moltres Lvl 50 Fire Spin, Peck, Fly
Pikachu Lvl 35 Thunderbolt, Double Team, Thunder Wave, Take Down
Snorlax Lvl 36 Rest, Body Slam, Surf, Fissure
Mewtwo Lvl 71 Psychic, Barrier, Swift, Recover
