Pokemon Scramble: UPN Edition

So, with the boredom of Summer having hit in full swing, I figured I might as well bring something I recall being pretty fun to UPN. Namely, the Scramble Challenge.

A Scramble Challenge is a challenge wherein every Pokemon which you use throughout the run of whichever game you have selected comes with conditions attached. These conditions can be for evolution, to dictate what moves they can learn and use, or even assigning some sort of back story to the Pokemon so that they have to single handed beat certain prominent members (Rival, Gym Leader, Elite Four) for your challenge to be considered a successful one.

With regards to Pokemon assignment, pretty much everything is on the cards! All I ask is that you keep it reasonable. Players are well within their rights to ignore the assignment of a non-evolving Magikarp, for example. If they feel uncomfortable with the difficulty level as well, they can happily decline.

To get started, simply post telling us which game you wish to be assigned a challenge for! Make sure to mention whether you are restricted to Pokemon obtainable only within the game, or if you are willing to trade Pokemon from another game in order to have access to anything.

For those curious - an example of an assigned Pokemon would be as follows:

Slugma, named Bunsen. Bunsen believes that brute force is never the most efficient means of defeating the foe. As such, he can only use attacks which either inflict status directly or have a secondary effect allowing them to inflict status. Bunsen may only evolve into a Magcargo after he has inflicted at least 30 Pokemon with some sort of status.

woo this is a thing.
Now, I'm going to do one for Y. Because Y not?
Some restrictions:
-I'll be using 12 Pokemon, 2 from each gen, in rotation, so I need 12 appropriate challenges.
-I reserve the right to change nicknames if it doesn't fit the gender I catch, because I am not lingering around for a certain mon with a certain gender to show up.
-Pls no trade evos. I cannot be arsed to deal with that shitstack.

And... GO!

Alright then. Take a Bunnelby named Jacob. He must learn Dig via level up in order to evolve, and must single handed defeat Grant.

Grab a Mienfoo named Ryu that must KO a Chandelure to evolve

I think I did that right.

Take an Electrike named Kris. It has to paralyze at least 15 Pokemon using Spark and learn Thunder Fang via level-up before it can evolve. Also must get Flamethrower in its moveset as soon as possible because Flamethrower is awesome.

IT deserves an Oddish nicknamed Oddball who must defeat a Phantump to evolve into Gloom and then solo one Gym Trainer before evolving via stone.

Enjoy.

Since I was told that I could give another, grab a Charmander and name it Bruce. It has to die to a rock typed attack 5 times every time you want it to evolve.

Audino named Mac, can only carry Physical moves as soon as you can get 4 onto them. No status, no special.

Eevee, must evolve into Glaceon, named Ronan/Rona. Can only evolve after you've learned all of the roller skating tricks.

Enjoy!

Mienfoo (Ryu)- must KO a Chandelure to evolve.
Electrike (Kris)- must land 15 Spark paralysis and Thunder Fang by level up before evolution. Always have Flamethrower.
Oddish(Oddball)- Solo a Phantump, then solo a GT.
Charmander(Bruce)- Die to 5 rock moves per evolution.
Audino(Mac)- only physical moves.

2/2 Kanto
0/2 Johto
1/2 Hoenn
0/2 Sinnoh
2/2 Unova
1/2 Kalos

Feel free to add more! I'd like one for a Kalos starter, but it's not exactly necessary.

Alright. I'll do a Crystal run as well, I have the time for it.

I'll need 12 Pokemon. Preferably no overlapping types and would prefer a spread of acquisition time. Other than that, go mental.

It will end at defeating Red. The first 6 used will carry me until fighting the second set of Gym Leaders. After that I'll use cheat codes to get the latter 6 up to the same kind of levels as the first Kanto GL, and from there we're back to normal.

I also cannot trade so preferably no trade evolutions!

Connor, take a Chikorita. It must solo Ilex Forest without fleeing from battles to evolve into Bayleef, and from there must solo Pryce to evolve into Meganium.

Enjoy!

Grab the Odd Egg, and name the child Alex. You must defeat (or capture, if somebody makes you use it) the Red Gyarados with the child alone to let them evolve.

Get a female Mareep. Name it Bae. In order to evolve, it must solo Whitney. It may never evolve past Flaaffy. From the moment you get the TM, it must always know Attract.

Edit: Alternatively,
get a male Swinub. Name it Piggy. In order to evolve, you must solo two of Clair's Gym Trainers with it, and solo two of Clair's Dragonairs without using Ice Moves, after which you must breed it with your Mareep. It must know Frustration until this happens, which you must use in each trainer battle it participates in, after which you must replace it with Swagger. There are no usage requirements for Swagger. Whenever it attacks three times in a row, you must loudly announce "Piggy likes three movers" no matter who is there.

I am going to reject that Staryu. Using all of my PP killing one Pokemon is something I am not really prepared to end up having to do. Toxic isn't obtainable until the second leg of the run, so.

Take an Eevee named Dash which can't evolved until learning Bite via level-up. What it evolves to depends on the last digit of your trainer ID:

0-1: Vaporeon
2-3: Jolteon
4-5: Flareon
6-7: Espeon
8-9: Umbreon

It must also defeat 5 Pokemon of the type it's evolving to before being allowed to being allowed to evolve into their clique.

I don't even know where you get a Staryu in Crystal anyway so that's probably fair. 83

I can't get that in Crystal.

I'll take Shuckle's Togepi instead.
