Pokemon Elite Challenger FO

POKEMON BLUE - Elite and Masterfully Inconvenient Challenges

 

 

-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Introduction

=-=-=-=-=-=-=

 

Most guides are written to make games easier. This guide is written to make

Pokemon as hard as possible, giving new life to a 13-year old game.

The challenges written here can help you have fresh fun with the same

cartridge that's been glued into your GBC for 13 years. The first,

Pokemon Blue: Elite Inconvenient Challenge, is the easiest of the two.

Both are difficult, requiring patience and self-control to complete.

Either of the tasks will afford you incredible bragging rights, and a

digital badge which you can collect at the end of the guide.

 

Interested? Great!

Pokemon Blue: Elite Challenge

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

 

Rules:

 

-No catching allowed. All your pokemon must be obtained as in-game gifts.

 

That means you can have a starter, a magikarp (purchased for 500 yen in

the center outside Mt. Moon), an eevee (celadon, top floor of a large

building when entered through the backdoor), a lapras (Sliph Co.

building, from a man standing next to the warp that leads to Giovanni),

an Aerodactyl (resurrected from the old amber given to you in the museum

of Pewter city), and either a kabuto or an omanyte (from the dome or

helix fossil you collect in Mt. Moon). You cannot use the game corner

to attain pokemon.

 

-Must start with charmander

 

(Fire is not very effective against Rock/Water, making the first two gyms

a challenge. This requires you to level up charmander to level 9 -when he

learns ember- before facing Brock.)

 

-No use of the PC allowed whatsoever.

 

-No duplicate moves allowed

 

(You cannot have slash on both charizard and kabutops, for example)

 

-Set style only

 

(Available from the options menu, disables the ability to switch out

pokemon before facing a new opponent)

 

-No trading

 

-No unnecessary HMs (Flash/Fly)

 

Comments:

This challenge forces you to use moves that aren't normally seen, such as

bubblebeam. The pace is slow at first, and I usually end up at level 14 or

so before facing Brock. Leveling up magikarp can be a test of patience on

set style with only a charmeleon to swap out to...But once gyarados comes

into play the game moves quickly.

-Set style only

 

(Available from the options menu, disables the ability to switch out

pokemon before facing a new opponent)

 

-No trading

 

-You may ONLY use items required to progress (HMS/key items.)

 

(No TMs, FLY/FLASH, Status healers such as potions/revives, repels

or other throwable items. This makes the early game a challenge. Don't

get poisoned or it's back to town for you. You are consequently not

allowed to buy items other than fresh water, which is needed to get into

Saffron City and may be purchased from the drink machine at the top of

the Celadon Dept. Store.)

 

-No evolutions.

 

(This forces you to keep a magikarp until the end of the game.)

 

 

Comments:

I have not managed to complete this one yet. The final team should look

like this:

 

Charmander, Magikarp, Eevee, Lapras, Aerodactyl, Kabuto/Omanyte
