Game Challenges: Pokemon

Every now and again a Retro Gamer (or any gamer,for that matter) feels the need to Breath new life into their old games. They do this by challenging themselves. Challenging themselves by creating their own way to play.  Well, I'm no different and today, I'm gonna list some Video Game challenges for the Pokemon titles.

- 1 Type: In this challenge, the player can only capture/choose 1 pokemon of each type and stick with them for the rest of the game. Ex: If you choose to capture Pidgey,you will Not be allowed to capture Any more flying types. So choose Wisely!

Evolutions are ok,though. So if you evolve Magikarp into Gyarados and already have a flying type Pokemon,it's perfectly fine. Also,in regards to Pokemon with duel typing,similar rules apply.

However,duel type pokemon can only serve as one type on your team. Ex. If you want a Jynx you must either forgo catching a psychic type or an ice type. If you get Jynx and lack a psychic type,but already have an ice type,Jynx must act as your teams psychic pokemon.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The Mighty 6: You can only Capture any 5 Pokemon (the 6th pokemon is the starter) and use them for your permanent team. You are Not allowed to capture any other Pokemon once the Roster is full. And,If you get a Gift Pokemon and your Roster is full,you must keep that Pokemon in the PC. Trades are not ok.

Choose your Monsters Wisely.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Peter Pan Attitude: Capture your Pokemon in it's base form and Don't Ever Evolve It. And, No, You can't capture The Evolved forms. Trades are also forbidden.

You Can, however, capture Pokemon that Have no evolution (like far'fetched).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Nuzlocke Challenge: I'd thought I'd mention this. This is a harsh challenge with limited options. Any Pokemon that faints is "dead",and must be released. Plus, The first Pokemon to appear in a single area (route, cave, town, etc.) is the only one you can capture in that area, unless you've already captured it.

To add a bit more emotion to this chalienge,you can also nickname your Pokemon. This part is optional,though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The Type Disadvantage Victory Challenge: Fight and Beat The Rival, The Gym Leaders,AND The Elite 4 using Pokemon that have a type disadvantage against their Pokemon (ie, using a machoke against sabrina's kadabra or pitting your poliwrath against your rivals exeggutor).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 101 Run: A Classic Challenge. Capture Every Pokemon Available, Get Every Item, Fight Every Opponent, and Make All In-Game Trades.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- No Flash, No Fair: Navigate through Dark Caves without Using Flash.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Pika Pals: Play through the game WITHOUT storing Pikachu into the PC. You must keep it in your party at all times and battle with it very often. You also must Keep it alive and Healthy. If it faints, revive it as soon as possible.

Pokemon Yellow Only!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1-Type Team Challenge: Create a team of Pokemon of the same type and beat the gane with said team.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- The 3 Amigos Challenge: Create a 3 Pokemon Team. You can capture others, but those monsters must be put into the PC. Team Switching is allowed (for obvious reasons).

Well,that's all of the Pokemon Challenges I can come up with. If I come up with anymore,I'll let you know. Anyway,hope you guys try out the Pokemon challenges tgat I layed out? May posts some Mega Man challenges next time I decide to do one of these.

Thanks for reading and Stay Gold.
