I did a FireRed run a while back, finishing it and not having a single death throughout the run. I got close during the elite four but was able to just sort of plow my way through it. Pic related was my final team. I am looking to do HGSS next.
This was using fairly strict rules, but now I am looking to try and make it a bit more strict to give myself a proper level of difficulty and actual possible walls. My ideas are:
>can only bring the same number of pokemon to the next major battle (gym or rival)
>the pokemon for a major battle can be up to the level of my opponent
>no in battle item usage
This was the same rules I used for Fire Red, but the game was easy. Is HGSS naturally more difficult and so doesn't need further rules or should I add more? I tried doing platinum with single use pokemon centers and no item usage, and just barely got to Flint on my best run, which was more tedious than anything because of super limited PP.
