Pokémon FireRed / LeafGreen (Switch) Progress #4: Caught Entei!

After around ~240 throws, I finally caught Entei in a Poké Ball. I used Ariados with Quick Claw, which had a 20% of not letting Entei flee, followed by Spider Web that prevented it from fleeing directly, followed by BPing to Electrode which also prevented it from fleeing via Roar. I was able to use about 60 Poké Balls a time. So it took me around 20 encounters to finally succeed.

I’ve counted 172 Pokémon / 421 Pokémon in my Poké Ball Genderful Living Pokédex after some more breeding/evolving following that. So it’s now just a case of breeding/evolving wherever possible, including doing the in-game trades before I start my journey on FireRed. Maybe I can do a level 5 living dex on there.

Pokémon FireRed / LeafGreen (Switch) Progress #3: Unown Living Dex and Beat Elite Four Round 2

So this week I basically beat the Post-Game and caught every non-Shiny Unown. I’m currently repeatedly encountering a low health asleep Entei to try to catch it. I’m using a Wobbuffet to trap it for 2+ turns.

I calculated that you can pretty much fit a full gender in-game living dex into the boxes (420 spaces). Although you don’t quite have space for Deoxys (421st), which can be in your party I suppose.

Pokémon FireRed / LeafGreen (Switch) Progress #2: Beat the game.

Last night I did Victory Road and then beat the Elite Four with my starter, the legendary birds, Snorlax and my Spearow that’s there just to use Fly. Agatha was the hardest because I had bad coverage for her. Oddly, Champion Blue was very straightforward, as was Lance since I used Thunder and Ice Beam. I’ll probably be done with the post-game by next week. Then it will be a case of completing my living both genders dex, remembering to get both starters from the other version.

Pokémon FireRed/LeafGreen (Switch) Progress #1: About to do Saffron City Content

I’ve finally started Pokémon LeafGreen this week. My goal is to have a complete living form dex with both genders where possible. I probably only have about 50 or so at present. I’ve been battling every trainer so far and have been using a level 60 male Venusaur (my starter) and a level 34 female Snorlax recently (the one I caught at Celadon). I’m trying to obtain everything in a Poké Ball too, so I will breed my Safari Ball catches.

Super Bomberman Collection Progress #5: Fifth Game Beaten and 100% Complete…

This game had very awkward bosses. The other levels were very straightforward. I just used continues and didn’t need help from save points. The challenge was finding every route to clear the levels 100%. I resorted to looking up the last two routes when I was at 95% completion. But it’s not over… in this game, you do it all over again (with different item placements I think) for 200%! So there’s now that and the two NES games to try to finish for next week. I’ll probably use a guide to speed things up.

Super Bomberman Collection Progress #3: Third Game Beat

Although it started off easy, it was difficult from World 4 onwards and too difficult for me to beat World 6 with just continues. I resorted to making a save state after I got the brown line bomb Louie and then saving at the start of each level with the Louie intact. And it still took quite a number of tries to beat the boss! Apparently 4 & 5 are like this too!
