1st/2nd Gen Scramble Challenge Thread!​

Games in this gen: Red/Blue/Yellow/Gold/Silver/Crystal​



What is a "Scramble Challenge"?

The Scramble Challenge involves playing through the storyline and beating the game seeing the credits) with a team of six Pokemon which are assigned to you by other people on this forum. You may also be given certain guidelines, limitations, and restrictions concerning the Pokemon, usually by the person who suggested the Pokemon themselves. However, you may also create limitations for yourself.

The goal of the Scramble Challenge is to be able to complete the game without using the most powerful Pokemon, or your own favorites. It encourages you to think outside the box and make the most of what you are given.


Example Posts:

Some Challenger said:
Looking for more Pokemon for a Pokemon Red play-through. My team is:
- Blastoise, must know Skull Bash
- Raticate, must solo Misty's Gym to evolve

Some guy said:
@ Challenger, take a Hypno. It cannot learn Psychic.

Scramble Challenge Rules:

  • Please read the Challenge Forum rules before posting.
  • Always mention your planned team (based on others' responses) when you ask for more team members, so others know what has already been suggested.
  • You may create your own set of (minor) restrictions concerning gameplay - just be sure to mention those as well. If you have a lot of/and or major restrictions though consider using the 'Hit Me With Your Best Shot!' threads instead.
  • Just because of the fact that not everyone is on the same level experience-wise, you may reject team suggestions. However, please don't abuse this. If you feel that you need a really easy challenge, say so.
  • Typically, no Legendaries and no duplicates are allowed. Apparently, trading in any form (except for evolution) is discouraged, as well as post-Nat. Dex Pokémon, but if you wish to use a traded Pokemon you may,
  • Note that it's your game, and you can change the difficulty, limitations, and pretty much anything else, to suit your playing style. For example, if you want to breed in one game and send things over.
  • Please limit your suggestions to one per team (if it's rejected, you may suggest again), so that everyone can contribute. If the challenger's team goes two or more pages without a suggestion, you may suggest a maximum of an extra one, but no more.
  • Purposely giving challengers blatantly terrible choices (Lillipup that may not evolve at all, etc.) is against the spirit of the game and will not be tolerated.
  • Make sure all your suggestions are directed clearly. Using "@" is encouraged.
  • Enjoy! It's a game, after all!

Ok, I'm trying this out. I'm playing yellow(my first time), and I would like to request a relatively easy team.(But should not be too easy.) And don't assign pokemons that can evolve by trading(Gengar, Alakazam, Machamp, Golem).

So long
agunimon45, take Bulbasaur. Evolve it into Ivysaur after you have reached Celadon. Evolve it further into Venusaur after it has defeated a wild Dugtrio and Pidgeotto. Nickname it "Charisaur".

(You'll love this)

Take a Pikachu that has to be able to solo Brock's Geodude...Then once you do that and have a second Pokemon that Pikachu can NEVER be your highest leveled pokemon
(Too Hard?)

If so then Pikachu can never be your highest leveled pokemon...

Corbulo take a Squirtle that can only evolve after you use a rare candy on it, and a Wartotle that can after it defeats rival's ivysaur once. it has to be named "blastoys". :)

Corbulo, take a Koffing. This isn't an ordinary Koffing however: This one has the Skull & Crossbones above its eyes! It isn't happy with this, & therefore, can never learn Poison Type moves. To evolve, it must solo a Route/Dungeon/Gym.

Have fun.
