Single pokemon only challenges.

[Sceptile_Master]

I know we have a mono type challenge topic but I've recently started a runthrough doing the whole go through the game with a single weak pokemon thing. I'm currently doing a Zigzagoon only challenge on sapphire version. I'm also (just because I wanted to eventually put stuff on youtube) sticking up my progress in video from on youtube which people can find at http://www.youtube.com/user/SceptileMaster. It's in my Zigzagoon Only Challenge playlist.

Anyone else doing one of these or perhaps done one in the past? It's quite fun though I recommend it.

I've done it several times in multiple generations. However, in the Advance Generations there's a major problem with it.

Double Battles.

You can skip most of them, but what about Liza and Tate? You'll need to have at least one HMer who can put up a decent attempt at battling when needed, or else every double battle you fight will involve the foes picking off your HMers and then ganging up on your battler if it hasn't finished them off by that point.

For Advance Gens, I have to suggest a two-fighter challenge instead of a single-fighter challenge. I'm thinking about restarting Pearl Version and going through with just a Pachirisu (for high-level Pickup), a Shellos/Gastrodon (to balance out types somewhat) and some HMers.

For those two the second battler isn't allowed to fight just use items so I'm still only using my Zigzagoon.

I would use a Ghost Pokemon or a Psychic Pokemon. Watch out for Fighting types when playing with just Zigzagoon. Sceptile Master, where is the Sceptile challenge, only Sceptile plus HMers?

That would be too easy and I bet many have already done it just because they couldn't be bothered training something other than there starter. But anyhoo I did finished the zigzagoon challenge in the end and now I don't know what to do lol.
