So I was browsing around smogon when I came aross this intresting page.

So some guys at Smogon got together and compiled a list of Pokemon based on how good they are in-game. They rated them on How long il you can catch it, how good its stats are, and how good its moves are.

I decided that since I haven't played Ruby in a while, I'd do this. I decided I'd use 1 Top Tier, 2 Middle Tier, 2 Lower Tier, and 1 Untiered.

So here is my planned team and some info on the planned team:


1-Very Early/Starter
2-Early
3-Fairly Early
4-Somewhat Late
5-Late/Cover Legendary
6-Very Late
7-Post Game
High Tier (1)
Mudkip -> Marshtomp -> Swapert (Starter)
Middle TIer (2)
Magikarp -> Gyarados (Early)
Heracross (Somewhat Late, Hard to catch)
Low Tier (2)
Bagon -> Shelgon -> Salamence (Very Late)
Gulpin -> Swalot (Fairly Early)
Untiered (1)
Jirachi (Very Early, Colloseum Bonus Disc)

I'll start on this soon, wish me luck! be sure to subscribe to this thread if you wish to follow this playthrough!

RE: Alan's RSE "Smogon In-game Tiers" Run

Day 1- 9/22/12-MY B-day :D

I started my quest today on the way to the DMV. I did the usual, chose my starter etc... I beat may in a fairly easy battle, her Leer was no match for pure Tackle!

I beat the first Youngster in the game and skillfully dodged a bug catcher and another youngster.

I'm still on this route, but I will get Jirachi tommorow and continue in the story!

Day 2 -Late 9/22, 9/23/12
So now I got my Jirachi, my second team member. I helped Wally catch his Pokemon and continue on to Rustburo.

Jirachi takes the lead up until the Team Magma member in Petalburg Woods. I decided on not running from any Pokemon. Jirachi is now Lv. 8. Mudkip completely destroys the grunt's Poochyena. Mudkip grows to Lv.9 after this match.

I clear through Petalburg Woods, my Pokemon in decent shape for this point. lets get moving! I now face the first double battle. Mudkip and Jirachi win no trouble. Mudkip is now Lv.11 and Jirachi is Lv.9.

I decide to challenge the Rustburo gym now, skipping the trainers of course :p.

I now take a ride on the boat and arrive in Dewford Town! I get a SIlk Scarf and give it to Jirachi for a more powerful Swift. I now talk to the fisherman who gives me an old rod, time to catch my next team member!

I catch my Magikarp, Completing the first half of my team. Into Granite Cave! I put Magikarp in front and use the good old lead switching strategy. I give Steven the letter, Jenny evolves in the gym, and I go on to fight Brawly!

Now we move on to Mauville. this is a good chance to level up Hawthrone and Gulpin! I soon arrive in the city and do the first thing that comes to mind here...beat down Wally!

Alright, now I will fight Wally, but I won't include it here since its really insignifigant. I will now start preparing for the 3rd gym. But first, I will go get a bike and stock up on things at the local Pokemart. I get a coin case and begin to try to get Thunderbolt TM in the Game Corner. I will update this post when I get Thunderbolt!

RE: Alan's RSE "Smogon In-game Tiers" Run (continues this weekend)

Sorry anyone who was waiting for this. I ended up not able to play today.
 
Day 3- 10/3/12
Today I continued my quest but I didn't have a computer available so I'm going to summarize what happened. not that much happened, though.

I grinded on the routes beside Maville City, and will soon fight the gym leader. Hawthrone Evolved :D!
