Alt run Ideas. ....

[JpCkid21]

Looking for other runs apart from the story and the money run... thanks :)

[Global]

Try the beggars run, where you can only use pokemon/items you beg for.

[RysPicz]

You mean, something like Nuzlocke?

[TheGloriousWalrus]

Monotype run, little cup run (don't evolve stuff), one pokemon run, traded pokemon run.

edit: rival run, get a friend and battle after every gym, or something

Keep them coming... boredom is a terrible thing

Well, when I had a crapload of UT comps I evtrained them the way so they will have the smallest possible amount of exp, then took them through an alt to level them up through it. Usually around level 48-49 I already defeated Giovanni so I could finish the whole alt with a lvl 100 I took along.

Other than that, I don't know... I just like running through storyline :S

[JpCkid21]

How did you ev train them to get little exp?

[RysPicz]

How did you ev train them to get little exp?

Before I got amnesia brace, I used to put exp share on all of the pokes that needed that certain EV AND the pokemon that was killing as well- usually ended up with getting 1 exp or similar amount to all the pokes I was evtraining. Also vitamins :v

[JpCkid21]

Yeah about vitamins... is there a guide for ev training with regard to vitamins?

[Tritios]

no need for a guide, just buy the vitamins that boosts the stats you want and give them to your pokemon

Nuzlocke Scrambler Run – Red
-You can only catch the first Pokémon you see in each route, even if it is a duplicate, and if you fail then you cannot catch one there. Ever.
-Exceptions to previous rule:
• You must catch a Pikachu and nickname it Sparky before Pewter City (in Viridian Forest) and have it in your party at all time. Said Pikachu must survive the Elite Four as a Pikachu, being used at least once in each Elite Four battle, taking out a member’s Pokémon each time. If the Pikachu dies at any time before beating the Elite Four, you lose.
• You must catch an Oddish or Bellsprout as soon as possible. This is the only Pokémon that may know the HM Cut. However, if it dies, another Pokémon may learn the HM Cut, but only if it is a Grass type.
• You must catch a Magikarp as soon as possible, and evolve into a Gyarados. Said Gyarados must be used against Lt. Surge's Raichu. Survival doesn't matter, but if the Gyrados dies at any time before battling Lt. Surge’s Raichu, you lose.
• When you reach Celadon City, get the Eevee. It must be evolved into Flareon before progressing the story. You can train the Eevee a bit to get certain Eevee only attacks before evolving it.
• You must choose Hitmonchan from the Fighting Dojo and use it against Sabrina. Survival doesn’t matter.
• You must catch a Growlithe in the Pokémon Mansion and nickname it Revan.
• You must flip a coin for the fossils. Heads for Omanyte and Tails for Kabuto. Then Heads for the winner and Tails for Aerodactyl.
- You must start out with Charmander nicknamed Chuckizard. Said Charmander must be the strongest Pokémon at all times, even if it is dead. You must also teach it Mega Kick via TM05 as soon as you reach Celadon City.
- If two Abras are caught before beating Saffron Gym, one must be traded for the Mr. Mime. Said Mr. Mime must then beat both Sabrina’s Mr. Mime and Kadabra.
-If you catch a Caterpie, Metapod, Weedle, or Kakuna, it must be evolved to a Butterfree or Beedrill before continuing.
-All boxed Pokémon cannot be used unless your party falls below six, it is needed due to a previous rule, or an HM Slave is needed. And then, they must be used in the order they were caught.
-A Pokémon can only be taught a maximum of one HM.
-You cannot use the HM Flash or the HM Fly.
-If one of your Pokémon faints, it's considered dead. Gone. You must release it or dump it in a box.

-Nickname all your Pokémon.
-No trading unless stated in a previous rule.
-One Pokémon must die in each battle in the Elite Four.
-Challenge is beaten when you have defeated the Elite Four and Mewtwo, while abiding by all the rules.

Try a run only with your starter (and of course hm slaves).

[lpnlizard27]

Hardcore mode. AKA to the death

If a poke is defeated in battle consider it dead, you can No longer use it to fight. Items may be removed from the recently fallen. You must catch and train a new poke.

Fallen pokes can be released or placed in box 7 (aka Hall of Fallen Heroes)

For my last alt I decided to run both regions at the same time with the same team (also using both starters). Started in Kanto and went to Hoenn as soon as I reached Vermillion. Then just traveled back and forth battling trainers and gym leaders without overleveling for the other region. Can be a bit of a mess, but I did experience it as fun :)

[GoldenSunIsaac]

A fun alt run is too make a team with 20 of your friends. And see who can finish Kanto first. Me and the whole Channel 2 done it once. And it was soo much fun. You should try it.
