What's up, everyone? Surprised to see the old good avatar of mine now? The change of my avatar means one thing - a new challenge for you regulars is now availible! This time, it will be an individual challenge where each participating regular will aim to show his best possible results. This month, you shall play the certain game. And the name of that game will be...
Tower of God - 9F:
To participate in this challenge, you need to install Pokemon Reborn on your computer. You can download this fan-made Pokemon game from Pokemon Reborn website.
The objective of your challenge might be simple, yet you will quickly find out that it will be your most difficult challenge that you have ever faced, cosindering the fact that you have to finish this challenge on your own. In the game that you have installed, you need to catch as many different kinds of Pokemon as possible - in other words, filling up your Pokedex! Pokemon from all 6 generations will be obtainable in this game, so if your dedication is strong enough you can end up with several hundred entries in your Pokedex. And yeah - the amount of Test Points awarded will be proportional to the amount of Pokemon that you have registered in your Pokedex. Shiny Pokemon in your collection can also increase your overall score. But it you think that this game will be all about catching Pokemon, that you are clearly wrong! Of course you have to make some progress in the game itself in order to unlock new areas where you can catch new Pokemon. Besides, it's always thrilling to find out who can catch the most amount of Pokemon ^^
In order to participate in this challenge, you need to install the game and notify everyone in this thread that you are willing to participate. You also need to tell everyone which starter Pokemon you will begin with. Pokemon Reborn will allow you to choose from one of 18 possible starters: Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Treecko, Turtwig, Snivy, Chespin, Charmander, Cyndaquil, Torchic, Chimchar, Tepig, Fennekin, Squirtle, Totodile, Mudkip, Piplup, Oshawott, Froakie. Just make sure that each one of you picks up a different starter Pokemon.
The entire challenge will last from October 1st to November 1st. That will be your time limit. Once October ends, so does the challenge. Before the deadline ends, you need to send me a copy of your own save file to my email: fragsbunny@gmail.com. This will allow me to directly evaluate your own Pokedex and see how far you have progressed. If you decide to give on your challenge midway for some reasons, you should still send me copy of your save file so that you can earn some Test Points. I'm not planning to give any hints to you on how to beat the game, but you are free to share your experiences with each other in this thread.
One more thing. Among those regulars that have decided to participate in this test, there will be always at least one loser. That will be the person who caught the least amount of Pokemon after the test ends. So you your best to catch as many Pokemon as possible! You also need to send your save file to me before the deadline ends, or else you will also fail the test. If you end up with least amount of the Pokedex entries, you'll lose Test Points instead of gaining then. The second to last place person's Test Points will not gain any Test Points at all (but he won't lose then either), so do your best to WIN! You have entire month in your disposal, so use your time well.
If you are not a fan of Pokemon or whatever, you can abstain from this challenge if you want. But for those who decided to participate I wish you good luck!
