Okay, title is slightly wrong... But Ill explain... After a conversation with Nate on Skype, we came up with the idea of playing a game from each generation over this week, up until Saturday, when gen VI is released!
So, we wanted to get as many pkmn members playing the games as we can over this week. The rules were using are simple:
-> 1 game a day. If you finish, you can't start the next.
-> If you don't finish, you can't carry on till the next day, you've just sort of 'got to where you got'
-> You don't need to do generators in order.
So, is anyone else joining us? Granted, we'll likely fail, but it gets our minds off of gen VI's close, but ages away, release!
This obviously starts on Monday xD
I would have joined this if I hadn't already been doing it for the past 2 weeks... *looks over 3 successful Nuzlockes with 1 in progress*
Good luck to you guys though! ^^;
Thanks! And same to you, nuzlocking each game sounds hard!

had the same idea, just didnt follow through with it...
but yeah, good luck!
aah that's such a good idea! i'm definitely going to do that if i can find the time.
although I don't know if i can finish the game in a day, I can at least see how far I''ll get
Awesome! It's less about finishing the games and more about passing time, tbh! Be sure to post how you do though!
Sorry, I don't have the time
Question: Do the remakes count as their original gen or part of the gen they were remade? Because the GB/GBC game batteries usually have died by now.
You can use either or, really. Me and Dick will be going with the originals, but it doesn't really matter.
They can do, Nate and I are using the originals! but it doesn't really matter if you're wanting to do it as well and can only get on the remakes. After all, they're essentially the same game.
Sniped by Nate... Oh well, may as well post anyways
I started with charmander and mannaged to beat Brock on my first time. I think I'll take that as an achievment. I remember spending ages grinding before Brock as a kid with my charmander but coming back to it and taking him down so easily is pretty neat.
Awesome! I've been doing Diamond today (was going to do them in reverse order, but I can't get on white today, so I'll do it in sort of reverse order xD) and realised what an idiot Jupiter is in the wind works xD
Edit: Although I didn't finish, I did get to Hearthome gym (5), so I guess I didn't do terrible!
Started a half finished play through of crystal, still completely stuck on Whitney and her Miltank. Ah well, I guess that's one gym that doesn't get easier.
Aww, miltank a a pain in the arse xD not looking forward to Thursday...
But, I'm on white today (I found it!!!). Chose Tepig, and I'm up to gym 2
Edit: okay, it's midnight... I got quite far, up to Skyla!!! (6)
man you're taking this super seriously. I just play a bit and stop when i get bored :P kudos to you so far.
Haha, I'm just playing as much as I can because i have no life it passes time!
Buuuut, I'm on Ruby today, just beaten brawly
Edit: I got to Winona and beat her, but then I had to come off and didn't get back on :( oh well, 6 gyms isn't bad
I accidentally forgot to play yesterday so I guess I'm splitting today into two gens. So far, I've beaten Norman after a bit of a struggle so that's already more successful than trying to beat Whitney. Still, I really like the layout of the Hoenn region in that you essentially make a figure 8 motion around the island. Its different from the other games and definitely more imaginative than B/W's circular motion.
I forgot to post yesterday, but I just beat Morty (Whitney really held me up :dry:)
Doing red today, up to Lt. Surge
Playing Pokemon Red with Squirtle, I am currently getting battered by Lt. Surge
Ah man I got carried away with other stuff and forgot about this :( I think I played about 5 minutes of platinum before other stuff happened. Oh well, hopefully my copy of x and y should arrive by tomorrow. This was a really fun idea, thanks for sharing it :)
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
My final point in red was Blaine (cinnabar gym), which I thought was quite good!
I played SS for a bit on Thursday and some W2 on Monday for awhile. That's all I have. Just SS covering both the 2nd and 4th gen at the same time and all four gen 5 games. I know that I'm calling Klefki "Missinkeys" as soon as I catch one. Sort of a personification of keys going missing from where you last put them and it seems like they literally got up and walked away.
