POKEMON CHALLENGES: DREAM THEME VERSION

Intro
Hello, my name is Laure and I also created Pokemon: Seasons challenge. My main focus for that challenge was to do as all challenges do, limit your team and force you to use a team that otherwise you'd never use. However, I like to make the challenges a bit more fun by adding a theme to it to give you something to relate to and familiarize yourself with. I have plenty of ideas that have been coming to me. Some great, some not so great, so feel free to critique me in this forum as well as suggest your own theme.

Rules
 The requirements of each theme will be laid out in an order showing the challenger the required Pokemon, types, colors, egg groups etc. There might also be moves or types banned in the challenge so keep a look out for that.
 Challengers, if the challenge you take up has move restrictions or requirements please update with your Pokemon's moveset
 I love reading frequent updates, but if your posting more than 3 images, or writing more than 4 paragraphs remember to use the /spoiler to shrink down the forum size a little.
 When using this thread to suggest themes, make sure to read the other challenges in both my forum and others. I try to make themes based on fiction, other video games, or whatever floats into my head.
 You may use a hack for your challenge as long as it is completed enough that it has an Elite 4, or something that leads to the credits.
 Unless the challenge requirements say otherwise trading and hacking are only allowed if none of the required Pokemon are available legally before the first gym. You may only do this once.
 Unless the challenge requirements say otherwise emulation is just fine.
 In order to participate in this challenge you need to say your username or name you want to go by, the theme you are going with, and the pokemon you know will be your starter/first attained.
 Unless the challenge says otherwise, no legendary Pokemon will be permitted.

Ultimate Challenge
 Like all other challenges there will be an ultimate challenge. I don't have it ready to go yet, due to lack of images and ideas right now. I was thinking about giving out badges for each challenge and once you get a certain amount of badges you are an ultimate champion. So if anyone is good at usebars and badges I'll be your best friend

THE THEMES

 Nintendo Challenge
In a world where 3 different consoles dominate the video game world forcing gamers to pick and choose sides and debate with one another, remember, you like Pokemon, so just keep on filling Nintendo's wallet. Sony and Microsoft silliness put aside Nintendo brought us some of the most iconic video game characters, and this theme celebrates that.

Rules:6 Pokemon will be required for this challenge, each have their own requirement that relates to a Nintendo character, some will also have a move requirement. Each Pokemon must be named after the character they represent. The party layout is as follows:

MARIO: To celebrate the man that represents Nintendo one of the Pokemon in your slot most be red, (the offical color chart can be found on bulbapedia, no shinies) as well as have any fire attack for when you find that special flower power.
YOSHI: Where would Mario be without his faithful lizard? In this slot your pokemon must not only be green, but also be a lizard/have scales. Sceptile, Turtwig, Snivvy, etc. Make sure to post in the forum if you are not sure that your Pokemon qualifies.
3. DONKEY KONG: If this Monkey didn't exist and insist on capturing Peach and throwing barrels there would be no Mario. Celebrate Donkey Kong by using a monkey Pokemon (Primeape, Infernape, etc.)
PEACH: If only this girl would stop getting kidnapped. Use a pink Pokemon here, and your pokemon representing the Princess cannot be male.
LINK: That sword weilding homie? Of course I suggest you use a green Pokemon for this- oh wait it has to be harder. NFE green Pokemon since Link likes to start out the game as a lil boy. Just unlike Link I don't see why you should grow up.
PIKACHU VS. KIRBY: I wanted to use Kirby, but the Peach challenge already requires you to have a pink Pokemon. So either a Pink Pokemon for Kirby, or a Pikachu (Can't evolve to Raichu, but feel free to use Pichu) the ultimate Nintendo Gangsta

 Lore of the Fairy
This is what happens when a girl makes themes. I love all the pokemon from the fairy egg group (which can be looked up on bulbapedia), and one of my favorite Pokemon is Butterfree. So with this challenge we will be recreating a beautiful fairy garden

Rules:In this challenge there is a small array of Pokemon you are allowed to use. You are not allowed to use any other Pokemon that do not meet the following requirements: Any Pokemon from the fairy egg group, any Pokemon with bug wings (Butterfree, Yanma, etc.), or any Pokemon with flower petals (Roselia, Vileplume)


 Adventure Time
No. Not that Cartoon Network show. I'm thinking of all the typical fantasy stories and have come up with an epic adventure for your trainer to embark upon. LOTR got nothing on you!

Rules:In this challenge you have to keep your starter, but once they evolve into their 2nd form they may never evolve again. (make sure to get an everstone or save often, if you mess up feel free to breed it to get another). Why do I require this, because the best hero is always unlikely. Duh. Now your hero needs a loyal steed, so a horse Pokemon. If Ponyta or Rapidash isn't in your game any other 4 legged hooved creature will do. Now for a sword, you need a steel type of course, but only one don't get greedy. If playing gen 1, when such a thing didn't exist, you are a primitive cavemen and will be required to have a rock type. The rest of your team is open to any dragon, fire, or bug.

 Rainbow Road (Contributed by Alternative)
Monocolor is always fun, but how about a nice array? Only catch is one per color and in order.

Rules: In this challenge you must have a team of 6 Pokemon, and each 1 must be a different color to represent all 6 colors of the rainbow. (Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple). The must also be caught in order. You must have your red Pokemon by the 2nd gym, (if your starter isn't red you may use it for help up to the 2nd gym. Even if it meets the future color criteria you may not use it again as it isn't a catchable Pokemon). You must have 3 pokemon by the 4th badge, and 6 by the 7th. NFEs are allowed, and no legends. ALSO all 6 pokemon on your team must be caught with a different pokeball, so no 2 pokemon on your team can live in the same ball (unless you're playing R/B/Y or FR/LG for you may use 2 pokeballs, 2 great balls, 1 ultra ball, 1 masterball).

 Digimon Crest Challenge - (contributed by Digimon Kaiser)
I won't lie I love Digimon way more than Pokemon, even though they are just Pokemon with a whole bunch of guns strapped to them. Digmon has offered a lot of great RPGs as well (Digimon World 2 being the best), but Pokemon has more going for it. So to make it a bit fun though and add some variety you're allowed to pick one crest, and depending on the crest effects the team you must complete the game with. NO LEGENDS (like all the other challenges)

Rules: Pick a crest and follow the rules for each crest. 6 Pokemon must be on your team

Courage: 2 Pokemon on your team must be fire types, 2 must be orange, and 2 must have scales on their body (meaning lizard or fish). TYPES BANNED: No Grass types, no grey or white Pokemon
Friend Ship: 2 Pokemon on your team must be ice types, 2 must be blue, and 2 must be a four legged sprite (Absol, Lillipup) TYPES BANNED: No fire types, no yellow or brown Pokemon.
Love: 2 Pokemon on your team must be flying types, 2 must be red, and 2 must be a Pokemon that evolves with the power of love (if an earlier game 2 fire types). TYPES BANNED: No water types, no blue or yellow Pokemon.
Knowledge: 2 Pokemon on your team must be bug types, 2 must be purple, and 2 must be a steel type (if an earlier game Magnemite and Voltorb is all I'm giving you). TYPES BANNED: No flying types, no green or pink pokemon.
Sincerity: 2 Pokemon on your team must be grass types, 2 must be green, and 2 must not exceed the height limit of 6' 8' http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wi...�mon_by_height TYPES BANNED: No ice types, no red or orange Pokemon.

Light: 2 Pokemon on your team must be normal types, 2 must be white or pink (1 color no mix and match), and 2 must be a FEMALE cat Pokemon (If an earlier game where this isn't possible than just 2 more normal types)
