1: FUCK, I FORGOT/LEFT MY DS AT HOME. Oh well, emulators are there for me.
2: I am totally going to do a Gym Leader run on some pokémon game.
DEM RULES
You may only catch pokémon that share one single type. (exception: you may catch 'mons that evolve into your type, even if they don't have it at the moment: ex, your type is Flying, and you catch a caterpie -> butterfree has flying) Your first pokémon may be ANYTHING unevolved at lv5, however - as long as it fulfills the above criteria. Use emulators and Pokésav for great justice - if this is unavailable, the first pokémon you catch, or your starter if you so wish, has to take that spot and decide the type. (Extra rule for pokésav users, however - that's ALL you get to edit. IV's remain the same as the starter you're replacing, and no handing out weird egg moves like a retard. If your starter lacks a decent attack move, it gets Tackle or Scratch. This is hard mode, not l33t h4x m0d3.)
You may only carry with you as many pokémon as the last gym leader you battled had (only 1 until you've cleared the first gym). If you're overfilled due to a new catch, you must immediately return to a pokécenter and remedy that.
No legendaries. EVER. No matter the type. You're not even allowed to let them sit idly in their box. They STAY LEGENDARY by NOT BEING CAUGHT. You're just a gym leader, who do you think you are to catch a fucking legendary?
No defeats. EVER. When a gym leader loses, the game is DONE with them. Lose your first battle? START OVER! Lose halfway through the elite four? START OVER! Gym leading is SRS BSNS, suitable for only the baddest of asses.
No switching mode (switching pokémon when your opponent's pokémon faints and he sends in a new one). EVER. Want to switch? Prepare to take a beating from whomever is on the field at the moment. Or get yourself a fucking U-turn/Volt Change/Baton Pass user.
No excessive farming. Nobody ever battles a gym leader with an entire team that's 10 levels below his lowest (unless they're n00b/stupid or have an imba legendary or a team full of shinies or something. which you DON'T.) and since your opponents won't think of this rule due to being NPC's, you will have to do it for them. Simply put: your team's total levels must be equal or less to your opponent's when battling gym leaders, rivals or E4's (for the first time). Unsure if you've overfarmed? Bring someone who's low as fuck or just one less team member CHECK DAT BULBAPEDIA/SEREBII.NET AND ADJUST YOUR TEAM ACCORDINGLY. This rule is disabled once you've beaten the E4/beaten the game (for games whose main plot stretch beyond the first E4 run, where you need to beat them in accordance to the rules the second time as well - Black/White is an example of this).
Bug clause 1: Plot Eggs. Eggs that are given to you in the plot (ex. Togepi) are treated the same way as starters; they can be changed into any basic lv1 poke; however, if there are ANY proper baby pokemon with your type, ypu may only choose one of them. Ex. Electric has elekid and pichu, ice has Smoochum, psych has smoochum, mimejr and wynaut, steel has riolu, while Dark and Bug have none. Check serebii xfor list of babies.
Bug clause 2: Eevelutions from DPPt in HGSS. Glaceon an Leafeon CANNOT be gotten without trades in HGSS, despite Eevee being available. This is stupid because Glaceon is massive bro tier, so we will handle this in this way: Eevees to evolve into leaf/glac are trained until their happiness is maxed, which makes them evo into umbreon/espeon. Cancel this evolution, save, pokesav edit your eevee into a leaf/glaceon egg (yes, evolved pokemon can be in eggs with editor), hatch it, save, and pokesav edit your lv1 eevelution to the level it was before the chain of edits. This way, you get it in your 'dex.
________
Will post stuff when I start. If anyone else is INSPIRED!!! and doing it too, please do post ITT so we can compare teams/types/setups/other geeky pokémon master shit.
Personally I think I'll be doing Ice or Ghost or something. Cool types are cool. Restricts my choices of 'mons, but for DAT GLACEON I'll do fucking anything. He's fucking BRO TIER.
So, /OSC/ - what say you of dis challenge?
This makes the Nuzlocke challenge look like something for wimps. I might have to try this out sometime...
Heh ^^ I was mainly thinking of all the shit I do during my lazy runs, and then pulled BAN EVERYTHING on it. Plus, single-typing makes you think a lot more about what you're doing - and hardcore mode + no overfarming makes it sufficiently difficult as to actually enjoy the challenge, rather than just sweep through like some fucking bulldozer with a perfectly synergized 6 man team (like I usually do).
So yeah. MAJESTIC.
Ok, so we are doing a play thru of Pokemon SS/HH/Crystal/Silver/Gold on our Gameboy/DS/Emu and see who can get to the end with just one type of pokemon? If this is a case, do we record what we do and what happens here until we all finish? Is this just a hardcore mode of Pentium's topic which is just a run thru of Crystal/HH/SS/Silver/Gold
@Kraus: For the record, mine's not a normal run through Crystal; it's a one Pokémon only run (Well, only one to battle with. I'll have others, but they'll strictly be as HM slaves and nothing more)
it sounds tough.....especially since i'd be going with psychic, since espeon would be my partner pokemon. FOREVER.
only trouble is, i'd want to do it on crystal, and my crystal game died....
but if i did it on ruby i'd get milotic....
QUESTION:
if we happen across a pokemon that is a dual-type and one is our type, do we get it?
Duals are allowed. HM slaves? NO. Unless you actually cant find something with your type that can learn the needed move. Ice has Delibird for Fly, many for Surf duty, etc. Since some types are hard to come by early, though, you need to pick your starter wisely, so you can properly run all HMs you need before you can catch your next poke.
Also, two more rules have been added, to ease out some possible bugs.
i'm gonna consider trying it, but i can't do anything about the second bug, since i'm not using an emulator or game genie. :\
Well, consider the Natural Clause added - if you can't mod your game, you may delay the start of the run until you can catch the first of your chosen type.
ahhh. well, ok. sounds good.
plus, it's likely it'll overlap with your trip, so you can monitor me and make sure i don't cheat. xD
::Gym Leader's Log::Tythan, the Crystalline Battleartist::
Day 1 - 20:00
Having received his Chikorita from Professor Elm, Tythan felt intensified shocks from the blue egg - the one he had been entrusted with by his father long ago - as he was exiting the labs. Finally! It would soon hatch open and reveal the shape of the pokémon that would be the first step on his path to destiny.
Having consulted his mother about the matter (and received her support) he took his newly equipped Pokégear and wandered out into the tall grass.
It just didn't feel right commanding the Chikorita he now owned, however - its attacks were clunky and ungraceful, and only took a tiny chunk of health off the wild Sentret that was his first encounter. He decided to retreat, and wandered around outside the grasses, his spirits down.
Then, suddenly - the egg cracked open.
(http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/thumb/2/23/471Glaceon.png/240px-471Glaceon.png)
He named the newborn Bifrost, for the rainbow - and promptly set about to test its mettle.
Being a level 1, he was aware that not even the level 2 sentret they first encountered would be an easy match - thus Bifrost switched out for Chikorita, who tanked the wild pokémon down easily. This increased Bifrost's level to 2, however, and the next pokémon went down swiftly with a pair of Powder Snow attacks. Realizing the potential of even low-level ice-type attacks, he strode on to Route 31, where Geodudes and Spearows were aplenty.
After kicking major amounts of ass, he regarded his now lv7 Glaceon with respect. This pokémon, despite being a female, was truly Bro Tier. Having been guided around Cherrygrove City by a strange geezer and received a pair of savvy running boots for the trouble, Tythan proceeded to dump his now unnecessary Chikorita in the Poké Center, before proceeding with his grand adventure. It was time for his path as a gym leader to begin.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH
poor chikorita. :[
::Gym Leader's Log::Tythan, the Crystalline Battleartist::
Quick summary of Day 2 and 3
Bifrost the Glaceon, being an Ice pokémon and thus having total type dominance over both Grass and Flying-types, totally steamrolled through both the Sprout Tower and Falkner's gym. After defeating the gym leader of Violet City, he received a phone call concerning the egg that he had absentmindedly transported from Mr. Pokémon's house; said and done, he went to the PokéMart to pick it up.
After some wandering and idle battling (and disappointing the director of the Ruins museum by promptly ignoring him) the egg burst open, revealing something Tythan was quite sure shouldn't come out of eggs; he wasn't about to whine about getting a second Ice type, however.
(http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/pokemon/images/thumb/8/8b/Snover1.jpg/250px-Snover1.jpg)
Snover the snow-covered tree was named Lavinius, for the avalanches, and with his grass-type moves short work was made of many a Caterpie, Weedle, Wooper and Geodude on the way to Azalea Town.
Well there Tythan spotted some odd fellow dressed in a quite hideous black outfit blocking the entrance to the Gym; thinking to rebuke the fellow he searched for someone knowledgeable on the subject, and found the Ball Maker Kurt happy to oblige. Following him down the town Well, Lavinius and Bifrost proceeded to beat the living shit out of every black-dressed moron they came across, making sure to poke fun at their lack of fashion sense while at it. Apparently the cause of the outbreak of black-dressed hobos was some matter related to Slowpoke, but Tythan disregarded this fact completely as nothing good could possibly ever come from such a lax and simple creature. Instead, he stormed through the Bug-type minions of Azalea's gym in a matter of seconds, shattering shells and wings between the combined forces of Lavinius and Bifrost like so much glass.
The Gym Leader, Bugsy, was not as easy a fight as the others. He had duly noted the ease with which his subordinates were swept through by Ice-type attacks, and was well aware that his prized Scyther was especially weak to them due its Flying type. Thus, Scyther kept pulling his U-Turn move whenever he was in the field, dishing out a good amount of damage to Bifrost before retreating and letting the tanky Metapod or Kakuna take his place.
This tactic only had so much possibility, however. As Scyther was sent out for the third time, there was nowhere for him to run; Bifrost had also recovered some of her lost HP with her Shell Bell while taking down the high-hp tanks. Thus, there was little for Scyther to do against the screaming Icy Wind attack of Bifrost, which downed him in two shots.
Having completed all necessary things to do in this little woodside town, Tythan proceeded into the Ilex Forest. After aiding the woodcutter apprentice to fetch his Farfetch'd, he received HM1 Cut; when booting it up, however, he was faced with quite a tricky dilemma.
None of his pokémon could learn the move, and thus, he could not advance through the trees that blocked the path to Goldenrod.
After some disturbed mumbling he decided to make angry calls to Professor Elm, a random Bug Catcher, Professor Oak and his mother (in that order). Finally his mother came up with a solution to stop the pestering; one of her friends had recently been fishing in the waters behind New Bark Town, and landed a very strange egg. Not being much of a trainer, he was willing to part with the still-unhatched pokémon, which Tythan picked up at the Mart the next day.
After some wandering about, the egg hatched - and by the size and sharpness of the claws of the thing inside, his Cut problems were now very solved...
(http://faqsmedia.ign.com/faqs/image/ani215.gif)
The Ice/Dark-type Sneasel (Tythan figured the egg must've rolled down the mountain somehow) was named Darclaw - Tythan wasn't very imaginative at the moment she hatched, as he was busy being overjoyedsmug. After watching her TEAR through a Lv8 Hoppip at Lv1, Tythan decided to keep doing that for a while; some Ice Shards and a LOT of Hoppips later, Darclaw was Lv10, and Tythan decided things were very much good enough for him to return to his journey. He let Darclaw Cut down the trees blocking the way in the forest; after offing some pesky Weedles (and showing some weirdly dressed woman the way out), he was out of the forest. After a few tough battles on the way up the fields, Darclaw fell to a Mankey; after defeating its trainer and giving him his deserved respect for managing to down one of his pokémon, he proceeded to Goldenrod City.

Reflection: Yes, Glaceon is OP. Bro Tier, remember? However, once I get up into the higher levels and my enemies get some evolved pokés to field against me, I will be having a tough time; Glaceon is somewhat tanky, but has very low HP for the job, and due to her low speed relies on surviving enemy assaults before she can unleash her superpowered ice specials. If helped along with Hail and something accuracy-reducing, however, she can do the job admirably, however; since her Snow Cloak ability increases her evasiveness in hail weather. With the possibility of double battles, a combo such as Glaceon and Snover (whose Snow Warning ability immediately whips one out at the moment he's fielded) looks very bright indeed. Snover, however, is not the brightest of stars, and won't be for a long time; he doesn't evolve into Abomasnow until level 40, and I'll be needing him well before that mark is hit. Sneasel is Sneasel - stay on the field and keep on dishing out heavy-as-fuck Ice or Dark physical attacks until fainting is her job. Evolving her is simple; just get a Razor Claw and level up at night with her holding it, and baf. Now I've just got to find or buy one...
Tonight's challenge: the Goldenrod Gym.
if you want to fix bifrost's speed issues, find a quick claw. idk where it is in the remake, but in the original silver/gold/crystal the quick claw was owned by a woman with a persian (?) in the national park. it can do wonders in battle, as going first is much more epic than it sounds.
after several speedbumps, i've started the first half of my dual challenge. after things get a little more epic i'll detail it.
i feel like copying you!
~ Gym Leader's Log ~ Crystal And Espy's Journey ~
Today, Crystal got her first pokemon! The level 5 Tododile Eevee took to her right away, happily bounding along as the two went on their mission. (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/offonourway.png) This turned out to be a breeze, because even at the level it was all it took was a tackle or two to plow right through whatever came in their way. (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/evenwoundedeeveekicksass.png) Eventually, they fulfilled The Doctor's Professor's request, arriving at Mr. Pokemon's house. (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/wemadeit.png) The obviously-named eccentric welcomed them in with open arms (despite the late hour), introducing them to Doctor Professor Oak, who also seemed enthusiastic about meeting the young Crystal. After the meeting, Crystal left the house 1 egg and 1 pokedex richer.
Upon exiting, she received a call from The Professor, who, amidst crashes and mumbles, urged her to come home. Racing back, she was stopped by a rather fluffy-looking man by the name of ???. He cordially asked her to a battle, (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/rivalfails2-heseemstobehappy.png) and she and Eevee made quick work of the man's Chikorita. (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/rivalfails1.png)
Crystal made her way home, only to find out that that exact Chikorita was stolen from the lab. Providing the authorities with the first name she could think of, Garyoak, she proceeded to give The Professor the egg, to which he reacted in shock. After some pleasantries, he shooed her on her way, telling her to go visit her mother before she ran away with the strange brown creature.
Her mother seemed at once disappointed and happy, and, offering to save her hard-earned blood money for her, also proceeded to shoo her on her way. After a brief tutorial from the friendly neighborhood Bro, (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/showmehowbro.png) she made her way back to Cherrywood, where a lovely old gent she dubbed 'grandpa' showed her the ropes. (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/oldmanstutorial.png) After saying goodbye to grandpa she was back on the road to Violet City. (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/illmissyougrandpa.png)
Along the way, she was challenged to battles from various people, including a pair of youngsters named Joey (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/makingfriends.png) and Wade, (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/makingfriendspart2.png) whom she became friends with. However, as she was about to continue on her way, Joey felt the POWERFUL URGE (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/joeysurges.png) to battle, and called her up--5 minutes after their last battle. (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/joeyfeelstheneedtofightme5minutesafterourlastbattle.png) After indulging him, Crystal was once again on her way, but feeling that she wasn't powerful enough yet to challenge the gym leader, she milled about town and eventually decided to take on Sprout Tower.
Crystal and Eevee prepared themselves for the challenge by stocking up, saving, and then heading in. The prospect of seeing Ghastly in the tower was both exciting and frightening for Crystal; They were cute, but unaffected by all of Eevee's attacks. As they moved on, they crushed all that came in their path, (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/sprouttower.png) till eventually they reached the top floor. (http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i98/Chocofreak13/sprouttower2-monksinformation.png) As they stood and watched, Garyoak proceeded to give a MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH, then rappelled out of the tower like some sort of fucked up Spiderman wannabe. Finally, it was Crystal's chance to take on The Master. (http://www.virginmedia.com/images/the-master-dr-who-431x300.jpg)
All was going well for Crystal. Eevee was in good health, plenty of potions in reserve, The Master's pokemon putting up little resistance, until Eevee ran out of Tackle PP. Crystal immediately lost her nerve; How was she going to win? In a desperation ploy, Crystal began telling Eevee to use Tail Whip and Sand Attack, hoping to exhaust it enough to let it use struggle. This inevitably failed; leaving a bruised and humiliated Crystal to walk back to the Pokemon Centre with her wounded Eevee.
Upon leaving the Centre, Joey once again felt the POWERFUL URGE to do battle, so, to cheer herself up, she complied, coming out as the victor again. Crystal 3, Joey 0.
She headed back to the city, where she planned to rest, and eventually do some more training with Eevee. Seeing as she had a long night, however, she decided that it would be best to wait until daylight.
Eevee: lv. 12
Moves: Tackle, Tail Whip, Sand Attack

::Gym Leader's Log::Tythan, the Crystalline Battleartist::
Day 4 and night of Day 4-5
Rousing his team from their rest at the Poké Center, Tythan scrambled off to the Goldenrod Gym. It quickly became clear that his opponent Whitney wasn't much of a challenge, and after a few quick rounds of spamming various Ice-type moves, Bifrost the Glaceon once more emerged the victor, leaving Whitney sobbing and unable to grasp the situation even to the extent of giving Tythan his deserved badge. Tythan was irritated in no small amounts at this, but after being calmed by one of her minion trainers she eventually handed it over. She also reminded Tythan of his duty as a Gym Leader applicant, that he was only allowed to bring 2 pokémon with him until he had won his next Gym battle; a fact that he sourly accepted. After receiving a TM of some sort from Whitney, he proceeded to the Pokémon center where Bifrost was put into storage, while Lavinius and Darclaw were brought along to the next part of his journey; the leg to Ecruteak City.
Plowing through a few trainers on the way up to the National Park, both Lavinius and Darclaw gained some much-needed experience and levels; soon they were actually past Bifrost in numbers. As the National Park was not holding any Bug Catching contest today, Tythan simply cruised on through and proceeded onward to encounter...
A Small Girl Standing By A Wibbly-Wobbly Tree-Type-Thing.
The little girl revealed the tree-type thing to be some sort of pokémon as it wobbled and wibbled even further when you watered it, which led Tythan to believe it to be some sort of Grass-typed variety. Thinking it an easy battle, he produced the SquirtBottle he had received from an especially pushy florist half an hour ago, and watered the wibbly thing, making it wobble in rage and attack.
(http://th04.deviantart.net/fs70/300W/f/2010/348/b/d/sudowoodo__the_troll_pokemon_by_hagehidoku-d34v01x.png)
A second later, Tythan concluded that This Was Not His Day.
Analyzing the tree briefly he concluded it was not a tree at all, and he commanded Darclaw to soften up its defenses with a Screech; his pokémon did so, but was then OHKO'd by a sweeping Low Kick. Tythan was down to taking it down with one pokémon or the fate of facing oblivion at the face of Some Wild Trolling Shitty Thing Of A Creature; with hate in his eyes, he commanded Lavinius the Snover to unleash an Icy Wind at this despicable foe.
The enemy was quick. Its Low Kick crippled Lavinius almost totally, leaving it at a single HP; the Icy Wind attack left the enemy reasonably short on HP, however, and reduced its speed. A do-or-die situation faced Tythan, and he commanded Lavinius: Razor Leaf.
Five minutes later he rushed into the Violet City pokécenter with one fainted pokémon and one that was on the brink to it, but an accomplished objective: the route to Ecruteak was now clear.
Upon arriving in Ecruteak, he learned that the Gym Leader was not available for battle at the moment, and decided to check whether the city's exits were blocked in either direction; they were not, and Tythan decided he needed to do some recon in the direction of the port city Olivine. It was going to be a long trek, however, so he went back to Goldenrod to capitalize on a deal with a certain Bicycle Shopkeeper before proceeding with his plan.
Avoiding any encounters with trainers or wild pokémon (except for a particularly annoying Lv20 Raticate that he just had to put down), he soon arrived at his destination. After looking about for a while (and grabbing himself some hot grub in the Olivine Sailors' Café), he found himself chatting with a Fisherman in his house. Apparently there were Shellders to be found in his hometown New Bark, had one the patience needed to land one with a simpler rod than the ones used by the renowned Fishing Guru and his likes. This appealed to Tythan enormously, as he was well in need of a water-type to counter the threat of Fire types with, and after thanking the man for lending his Good Rod, he set off toward New Bark with a dash.
On the way back, however, he passed something that seemed to interesting to just roll by. The Battle Frontier, it was called, and while there weren't any battles to be had yet due to the facility still being in construction, one of the salesmen offered to let Tythan sample some of his wares. He gave him a Razor Claw, which made Tythan jump with joy as soon as he was sure he was out of sight of the man; now he could evolve Darclaw to his final form. Soon enough, the night was nigh, and after downing a pair of wild Raticates on the way back, Darclaw the Sneasel took his final steps...
(http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/2/29679/1338353-weavile_large.jpg)
...before emerging as Darclaw, the Weavile - licensed to kick ass, kick ass and kick ass until all possible sources of asses are exhausted beyond replenishment.
Soon, however, it was time for Lavinius to shine; after a looong trek, they arrived back home in New Bark Town, where Tythan jumped of his bike and produced the Good Rod. After giving Darclaw some fresh aquatic meat to slice the living hell out of, they finally encountered their target...
(http://images.wikia.com/pokemon/images/6/63/Shellder.png)
(note: While Shellder is only a Water-type, it is an allowed catch since its evolution Cloyster is Water/Ice dualtype.)
The target would prove very hard to get, however. Tythan first let Lavinius take the field, to lull the opponent to sleep with his GrassWhistle move; while this succeeded, the wild Shellder woke up straight away, and went on to hammer away at Lavinius with her Icicle Spear move. Eventually, however, its lack of an Ice type proved its fault; the damage sustained from the Hail produced by Lavinius' Snow Warning ability finally allowed Tythan to make his first real catch. The Shellder was named for its hard-to-get first impression and female gender; Tsundere.
(TBC: Dinner.)

@nej: they're the first (catchable) psychic pokemon i encountered in the game. thus, i jumped on the chance, not realizing that they only know and ever will know hidden power (which, btw, isn't even a psychic move).
all 4 of them have been boxed in favour of newer folks. also, i cheated my ass off and wound up with a smoochum. expect pics+recap later.
THE DIARY
I woke up in a daze. Vision blurry. Mind disoriented. As I stood, I was greeted by an ugly wench of a woman whose name I didn't care to remember.
Things got strange from there. This woman, smelling strongly of potpourri and fluoride, showed her true colors. She began to interrogate me: "what are you, a boy or a girl?" I just glared. "And your name, what is your name?" I could see her eyes narrow, and I resolved to record a note in my mind to revisit this woman one day and reverse-interrogate her about her own filthy existence. Her existence. As a whore.
I don't know what compelled me to tell her my name, since she'll know it soon enough. Yes, yes indeed; soon enough, everyone will know who CERN is. They'll know who I am, because if they don't, they'll be exiled. To the abyss. Or maybe a desert, if I can't figure out how to open up a portal to the abyss. Or maybe a kennel for dogs if I don't find an HM for my army of...
Ahh, that reminds me... Where are my POCKET MONSTERS? I should have noted this earlier, but I seem to have lost all of my Pokeballs. Did this slanderous fruitloop harlot pick my pockets? I regret that I didn't think about it at the time. I was simply too busy, given the circumstances.
Anyhow, she proceeded to introduce me to my "best friends". Two strangers whom I've never met before in my life, and whom I must one day remember to throw in my dungeon. It's with a twinge of confusion that I must confess that the events between meeting these children and the here-and-now present are somewhat difficult to recall, however.
That was then. As this is my first diary entry after the accident, I felt compelled to write about my recent memories. Now, for the events of the day:
These two children, strangers to me, accosted me in my own home. Rather, the home that I have claimed for myself by rite of violently declaring my superiority to "Mother," as she prefers to be called. Mother. The HARLOT. That's her new title, because she's a PEASANT. HA HA HA.
As these children bothered me, I noted something significant in the distance. A gift on the dresser, perhaps a present for someone? I ignored the childrens' blabbering and shredded the packaging. Pokeballs. My minions, is that you?
NO. IT IS NOT MY MINIONS. It is an assortment of FILTH. I grabbed the closest Pokeball and performed the summoning ritual by THROWING IT AT THE WALL AS HARD AS I COULD. A lizard creature poofed forth. I abruptly ordered it to attack the children, but it did not listen.
And the children just smiled. How pathetic. I'm barely an overlord at all now, am I? Well, whatever. One Pokemon, even a lizard, should be enough to help me rebuild my army. From scratch.
The children produced Pokemon of their own, smiling little things. My lizard thing surprised me. The little devil finally took to my orders, and proceeded to massacre the villainous beasts that the children had called forth. It wasn't much of a display, but nothing is when compared to my old LEGION...

Flashcarts work on normal DS'es too, yes.

THE DIARY
Pt. II
I set out on a journey today. My manservant, Mother, had no say in this affair. Before reading further, I must inform the dear reader of my diary that the events I intend to pen may seem quite unsightly as, indeed, the journey itself remains a stain upon my conscience even now.
I left home shortly after dawn. I hadn't noticed until this point, but the city where I'm residing is filled with a seemingly endless stream of urchins and hobos. One would think that with so many trees and greenery that the fresh air would be prominent but, alas, it is not the case; a stroll in this city will assault one's sense of smell with the pungent odors of the homeless.
Actually, they do have homes. Little huts. I live in a shanty town. A shanty town filled with URCHINS AND HOBOS.
Mother had informed me that a woman named Professor Juniper had been searching for me, along with the two urchins from earlier. My "best friends," as I was unsuccessfully programmed to believe. Whom is this Professor Juniper? What could she want with me?
The answers to those questions became clear when, as I was proceeding to the gate, I was again accosted by my new BFF's. Those two dirty peasants were accompanied by none other than her, the woman that I have come to call The Programmer!
I did not smile. I did not blink. I reached for my minion, CASHEW THE SCOURGE SUPPRESSOR, only to be reminded that my assortment of DEATH BALLS have been lost. All I have is this wretched little lizard, a... oh, what do they call it? Skivy? Skittles? Something unpleasantly cute like that. It makes my stomach twist.
The woman seemed to sense my rage, and so she cut whatever babbling conversation she intended to hold quite short. Though she still did ramble. The Programmer always rambles her inane drivel, for that is how she Programs. That is how The Programmer pries apart the minds of men and inducts them into her Masterpiece, a world of naught but HOBOS AND URCHINS. I HATE THIS PLACE AND MUST REMEMBER TO DESTROY IT LATER.
She produced a Pokedex. I slapped it out of her hand and turned away, and then left the city. Those two blithering children followed after me like puppies. "Want to play?" No. I want to CONQUER YOU. HA HA HA.
I destroyed several Pokemon on my journey to the next closest town. I did not capture them. I did not save them. I do not hold prisoners of vermin such as those. My GHOST ARMY must be resurrected. That is my one and only goal.
For now.
Will I find one soon? Will I locate a Pokemon that will suitably replace this lizard, so that I may dispose of this creature's Pokeball in the nearest volcano? We shall see.
END DIARY ENTRY #2
SUPPLEMENTAL DIARY ENTRY
Just now, I encountered a man who claimed to be from an organization called Team Plasma. He spouted drivel of how humans must hold an obligation to Pokemon, to see them surpass us. The fool.
I can see that this man will become my enemy. I can sense it. I know it.
Pokemon, surpassing humanity? Perhaps. Pokemon, surpassing ME? IMPOSSIBLE. Pokemon are TOOLS. Pokemon are not entitled to anything beyond BEING IMPRISONED IN MY DEATH BALLS and FIGHTING FOR MY GLORY!
Note to self: use TOOL-MONS to carve the true meaning of fear into this peon, and the whole of his Team Plasma.
END SUPPLEMENTAL ENTRY
btw,
can I use Pokesav to give myself a Froslass and something else in Black? No ghosts until Route 4, and I can't get to Route 4 without 2+ Pokemon! Against rules Nej? :p
Edit:
Nevermind! I don't have Windows installed, so I get this when I run Pokesav with wine:

To make things flow on, do whatever. As soon as you don't need it though, removal.
