A new user making an "I'm new" topic? What are the odds of that happening?

But seriously, I'm new, as you can probably tell by now. I'm Volcanic Milkshake, though you can give me whatever absurd nickname you want to, and I'm just a random guy from England who likes doing insane challenges; my most recent one being a no level run on Pokemon Emerald, and I'm currently trying to get over my new-found hatred of Wattson and Flannery :c As a result of the forum that I was previously active on shutting down a few weeks ago, I'm now looking for a forum in which I can post my playthroughs. And while I'm hoping this will be the forum for me, there isn't any nuzlocke/playthroughs section as far as I can see, so I'm currently unsure on where playthroughs would be posted, so some help would be appreciated c:

Obviously, I'm a Pokemon fan, though unfortunately my interest in Pokemon has declined and as I've gotten older, I've had less time to play Pokemon. I also have an interest in competitive battling. Some people consider me to be good at it, even though I don't. X and Y have kinda rekindled my interest in the series, but I still didn't really enjoy them as much as I used to enjoy previous Pokemon games, mostly due to the lack of difficulty, which is why I now enjoy challenge runs, such as my aforementioned Pokemon Emerald no level run.

My main interests other than Pokemon include Fire Emblem (which is my favourite series of games) Final Fantasy (though mostly the first six games) Advance Wars, Professor Layton, even though I haven't brought whatever the most recent games in the series are, and some other games that I've probably forgotten and might add them later.

Well, that's enough about me. I'll probably be quite active here, mostly on the weekends, though I can't really guarantee that I will, due to stuff like school :c
 
Welcome to the forums, Volcanic Milkshake (and cool username)! Don't seem to see other Brits around here quite so often.

As far as I am aware you can feel free to post playthroughs in your blog and link them in your signature. Otherwise, I personally am not aware of any other place I've seen playthroughs specifically allowed.

If you need any help with anything else or fancy a chat, feel free to drop me a VM!

No level on Emerald?! That seems pretty tough but I'm also curious on trying it myself since I love the challenge. Still stuck on my monotype run in Sapphire though.. Winona keeps handing me butt to me.

Yeah, my Emerald No level run has proved to be extremely difficult at times. I'm currently trying to figure out a way to defeat Wallace. I managed to defeat the Elite Four without much trouble, but I can't find a way to defeat Wallace, though I wasn't expecting the battle to be easy. However, after defeating Wallace, I think I might retry the run and improve my strategies, since some battles felt very luck based, such as Wattson. But that's if I defeat Wallace. I don't really want to give up when I'm so close to the end, but defeating Wallace when the highest leveled Pokemon I can use are the Level 44 Pokemon in Victory Road is a much larger challenge than I expected :/ The only thing I can really think of is catching Regice, Baton Passing +6 Defense to it, and hoping that its Base Special Defense of 200 and the defense bonus will allow it to survive several hits despite its low level. But even that strategy has flaws, the main one being: How will Mawille survive to use Iron Defense three times and Baton Pass? But hopefully, I'll find a way to defeat Wallace.

But enough of that: out of curiosity, what type are you using for your mono type run? I actually recall Winona being quite difficult in my no level run, so I know how tough she can be at times ;.;
