I did a water monotype once, and I had a pretty awesome poison team too.

Started my Crystal, and just after the first Gym I found out my game was extremely glitched.
Every time a trainer spotted me and tried to walk up to battle me, it would run off in the opposite direction, often through trees, water, ME etc. After about 10-20 seconds, the text for before the battle would pop up and we'd battle. After the battle had finished, the trainer wouldn't be anywhere to be seen.

After the second Gym with Bugsy though, it was all fine and dandy. Which sorta sucks, because that was fun. D:

Aaaanyways, going awesome with my challenge at the moment.
Up to the Goldenrod Gym with my team of:

;159; Croconaw Lv. 21
- Water Gun
- Leer
- Bite
- Scratch

;194; Wooper Lv. 18
- Water Gun
- Tail Whip
- Slam

;046; Paras Lv. 6
- Scratch
- Cut
(Obvious Cut slave.)
 
I'm doing a monotype dark run already, and I hope I'm going to succeed.

I'm at team rocket at Goldenrod now.

Team:
Eevee level 50, 1 exp needed for 51 XD (he didn't evolve yet, but I want i to learn moonlight as Umbreon at level 52, any help?)
Sand-Attack
Quick attack
Take Down
Bite

Sneasel
Icy Wind
Faint attack
Quick attack
Scratch

;073; Tentacruel Lv 32
- Surf
- Supersonic
- Constrict
- Acid

;080; Slowbro Lv 37
- Surf
- Confusion

Currently getting completely owned by Psychic's, as I'm severely underleveled with Slowbro being my only hope for Will. Doesn't help that he's overleveled compared to my other team, it's a pity that he evolved at such a late level.

Well, I healed my team, and deposited the togepi egg. I Ran down to union cave to catch myself a ;027; sandshrew,deposited onix as it wouldnt obey, then trained sandshrew up back to Violet, and up the sprout tower. Saw Ness acting all cool, and got flash off sage Li. Caught another Bellsprout for Cut/Flash purposes. Ran through Union Cave after getting annoyed by the onix trainer in there. Got into Azelea, Made kurt hurt his back and clear the rockets out of slowpokewell. Lost to Ness' Bayleef :(. Went to the Bug Gym. Cleared through Bugsy's Metapod with Phanpy, Kakuna with Sandshrew, and scyther (ohko) with geodude, who learned magnitude, tried repeatedly to beat Ness' Bayleef, And Failing, FINALLY managing with some miss hax thanks to Sandshrew, and multiple Magnitudes from geodude, my only survivor, and rock throwed zubat :) YAY finally lolz. Got Cut and cleared the Ilex forest, Got to Goldenrod, cleared the underground, got the coin case and start saving up for a cubone from the Game Corner. Got it ;104; after grinding the national park, and the routes above & below Goldenrod.

FINALLY managed to beat the E4 thanks to a crapload of Revives, Hyper Potions and Full Heals.

Caught a Lapras as the final member of my team, and I'm just off the S.S Aqua, in Vermillion Gym now. Quagsire can easily solo the Gym, gone through all the trainers and only taking 20 damage from a Sonicboom.
