Hello everyone! So I was playing through this for the first time, and around Venesi City I thought: "This would be fun to run a monotype team."
So then I needed to figure out what type I wanted to run. There is a fairly good balance of most types in the game. The only type I knew I did not want to run was Nuclear. I was debating between Dark or Bug or Ice.
Finally I decided on Dark type after having been given a link to some more in-depth research about doing a monotype run.
So this brought me to asking the community for 8 Dark Type Pokemon eggs. At the moment I have 2 eggs. (if you would like to donate an egg of a dark type pokemon, my thread is here. I have hatched the first one which was given from community member Iron. It was this guy!

Devimp 3
Now me being an idiot, when I went to name him, I named him Iorn instead of Iron. IVs are lacking, a neutral nature, and defiant ability, but that Nasty Plot looks sexy. Perhaps I can make him a mixed sweeper. Only time will tell on this little guy.
And now that I have hatched my first egg, the playthough starts!
Now... sure I could get all dark types via eggs from ppl in the community... but I wanted 8 eggs for a reason: a rule that I am setting in place for myself that will add to the fun a bit - I am only allowed to hatch an egg after I beat a gym. So once I beat the first gym, I can then hatch my next egg. This will add to the challenge a bit I think.
Stay tuned for the next installment which will probably be me going through to the first gym.
