Heartgold: Build Your Own Destiny

[khkhjkh]

Hello I'm going to be doing a screenshot run of Heartgold with a set of rules I created called the Build Your Own Destiny Challenge. It goes as follows.

Rules

1. You must never use your starter after catching your first Pokemon.

2. You can't use any Legendary Pokemon and must make them faint.

3. You must have one normal type on the team.

4. Can't use Rare Candies or Vitamins.

Bonus Rules

5. Must use Eevee in some form.

6. Must use Togepi.

7. Must build a new team when going to Kanto. (By that I mean no Pokemon that is featured in your Hall of Fame record.)

For my run I'm going to use the first four rules and rules 5. and 7.

Hope you enjoy the run and like the rules I've created.

Part 1: The Timid Chikorita

Many things have happened today so I might as well start from the begining. It was today that I planned on begining my Pokemon journey. Though apprantely when I went down stairs Proffeser Elm already wanted to see me. Mom of course gave me my supplies but kept talking about buttons and touch screens...she always does that after dad..well you know.

As time went on I was able to see Elm and recieved a Pokemon from him. It was Chikorita but the poor thing looked terrified of the outside and almost had a heart attack when my friend Lyra gushed about how cute it was and hugged it. Still I had to move on and see a friend of Elm named Mr. Pokemon. I eventually made it to his house but not before being bothered by a strange man who through an apricot case in my hands and then just ran back inside.

At Mr. Pokemon's it turns out why I was there is that he needed a Pokemon egg delivered to Elm. I also got to meet Prof. Oak of Kanto and was even given a Pokedex.

On the way hom though Elm called me saying something bad had happened. Of course I found that out on my own as a red-haired trainer challenged me with a Cynidaquil he stole form Elm. Chikorita one but the poor thing locked up and started shaking right after the other Pokemon fainted. Though the trainer got away I did pick his pocket to see that he was name Adamo from the Kanto region.

Returning to Elm I was almost called the thief by the officer investigate (I've already filed a complaint with the New Bark Town police department) but was able to clear things up.

I started to plan on taking the Gym Challenge but one look at the little Chikorita and I could tell the poor thing wouldn't be able to go through with it. I'm having it stay with Mom because after hearing this Lyra rushed off. She came back pushing a Pokeball in my hand and saying "You can still take the challenge Dan...



... and you don't have to be alone."

Yeah not really my best writing but I think it worked for set up and I was honestly just to peeved to try and recover the screenshots for the earlier parts that well let's just say it is a long story how I forgot those. Still from now on it is more screenshots less talking so see you then. blaugh

Episode 2: On the Road

With a sense of adventure fresh in our hearts Sora and myself set off in the early morning dusk to go meet the first Gym on our way to the Pokemon League.



Sora got his first taste of battles with trained Pokemon. Though they really didn't seem to put up that much of a fight.



Still we are getting stronger by leaps and bounds.



We attempted to explore the Dark Cave but left after our third intimate incounter with hard walls of stone.



The road provide an unexpected turn out of goodies. Mom always said the random items you found were left for good children by sprites called the Minish. I'm not sure what kind of Pokemon would do that though if such a species existed.



Met Lyra before entering town and even recieved a nice gift. For some reason part of her face was all red colored but she left before I could ask. Girls are weird sometimes.



Still it was good to know the time to start the gym challenge was near.

Next Time on Heartgold: Destiny. New challenges and friends await but is our friend Dan ready for the first Gym battle? Find out on Episode 3: Do Androids Dream of Belltowers?

Also hope I'm getting the writing style right for I want Dan to sound smart but still like a kid of 11-13 years of age. Also sorry for the lack of plot progress Heartgold Roms are finicky and I've got college to prep for so this does end up as back burner but still I'll try to keep to a weekly schedule.
