Here's my current list of pokemon:
- Vaporeon, one water move at a time.
- Togepi, must know Tri Attack
- Snorunt, must know Sing
- Swalot, no restrictions
-
- (Shadow)

I am looking for one more pokemon to add to my team (no duplicate types, must be caught as a Shadow). Limit is one move restriction (if any) and feel free to add any evolution restriction (just not too challenging).

How about Houndour and he must keep Faint Attack as it's only dark type attack. It's good it will never miss.

Wanna hug?
Bullkid, take an Aron (named Bismarck). When it evolved into Aggron it must forget all his moves to learn special moves only. It cannot learn any physical moves afterwards. I suggest a modest nature.

Mage of Void
-Pidgey: Must take down one of Misty's pokemon.
-Dragonair: Must catch as Dragonair.
-Meowth (I assume): Must keep Pay Day.
-Bulbasaur: Male. Must Leech Seed (and PoisonnPowder if overleveled) to evolve into Ivysaur. Must defeat Sabrina's Mr. Mime and Kadabra to evolve into Venusaur (might get rid off or alter this one). Must know Eartquake after defeating Giovanni.

-Grimer: Cannot be caught in Pokemon Mansion.

Sorry to put you through that trouble Kacho.

Ready to go!

I finally started my XD scramble run. Sadly, I did not have much time to do much. All I managed to do was get my Eevee, visit Dr. Kaminko's house, and snag my first shadow pokemon. I did talk to Lily about going to Gateon Port, but I haven't had time for that yet.

For my team, my current scramble chosen shadow pokemon will be placed in parentheses and my current non-scramble shadow will be placed in boxed parentheses.

Current Team:
;133; - Lv. 10
[;216;] - Lv. 11+

Hey. I'm looking into starting an Emerald Scramble.

My set restrictions are: I must have a surfer, but not necessarily a flyer. I'd like to keep my starter, and I cannot trade between versions at all. Aside from that, nothing too terribly late in the game, I like having my team set by Norman at the latest.

Team:
Zigzagoon (Rizla): Must know 4 moves with overworld effects to evolve, and cannot learn new moves after evolution. (probable moveset: Cut, Rock Smash, Dig, Secret Power)
Lotad: can know surf, must keep Astonish throughout game.
Male Ralts: cannot learn Hidden power, Thunderbolt, Shadow Ball, or Shockwave. must solo Seafloor Cavern Archie's or Magma hideout Maxie's Mightyena to evolve fully. Can become Kirlia at any time.
Torchic: can only become Combusken once I have reached Dewford, and Blaziken only once it solos a Ruin Maniac on route 111. Must know Blaze Kick and Quick Attack.
Grimer/Koffing: can only evolve after beating Winona's Skarmory. Koffing cannot learn any TMs until after evolution. Grimer is prioritized over Koffing, only to be replaced if 50 cave battles go by with no Grimer appearance.
Anorith: must know Aerial Ace via TM, can only evolve after beating Juan's Kingdra using only Aerial Ace.

And We. Are, GOOO!

Ryuu, take a Zigzagoon named Rizla. To evolve, all four of Rizla's moves must have out-of-battle effects, and it may not learn any new moves after evolution.

@cantab: Thank you! It took me a while to figure out a possible moveset. Entirely TMs and HMs, but should be doable.

Current team:
Zigzagoon (Rizla): Must know 4 moves with overworld effects to evolve, and cannot learn new moves after evolution. (probable moveset: Cut, Rock Smash, Dig, Secret Power)
