Alright - i am going to give a lot of back story here.
Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire added ribbons to a Pokemon. They did just about nothing - i see them like Achievements like on the Xbox360 or Trophy's on PS3.
Since Pokemon Colosseum came out, my running goal was to get the most ribbons on a single Pokemon as possible. The obvious choice was Shadow Smeargle from Pokemon Colosseum. Shadow Smeargle had the unique ribbon from purifying it back to normal - there was one in the bag.
Then keeping it under level 50 got me the Level 50 Battle tower ribbon.
After i got those 2, i could now train Smeargle to be competitive. Quickly following Level 50 battle tower was Effort, Champion, Mt Battle 100-Straight, and Level 100 battle tower ribbons.
Then the daunting task of contests came to the plate. Luckily at this time, emerald came out and the Berry master was my best friend. After a bit of practice - i was able to actually PLAY along with the berry master, and that is when i threw in the berries you can purchase from Pokemon Colosseum. Being able to play along with the master got me EXTREMELY high level Pokeblocks - keeping all of Smeargles contest stats equal.
That being said, i then went on to get master rank in all the contests in addition to the Portrait ribbon thanks to Smeargle learning ANY move in the game. At this point i think i am done with a whopping 27 Ribbons on my Smeargle.
Then, something that would test my sanity - Pokemon Diamond and Pearl came out. With a whole new set of ribbons to get onto my Smeargle.
At first, i thought to myself: "I already got the contest ribbons - i won't have to get those again". But i was wrong. I had to start all over on the contests. Thankfully the stats where set in stone, and no need for mixing poffins. So i get to Master rank on the contests AGAIN with Smeargle netting me another 20 ribbons. I went through the Elite Four getting another champion ribbon, got the "Daily Ribbon" getting me seven more, and the footprint ribbon.
It is at this point that i go to the resort area - and get welcomed with open arms. The ribbon Syndicate requires 10 ribbons - i had 55. More than enough to qualify. It is here where i got the Gorgeous, Royal, and Gorgeous Royal ribbons. 58 ribbons now.
Now the only thing standing between me and ribbon history was the Sinnoh battle tower.
Ability and Great Ability where fairly easy only needing 49 wins through the tower. Double ability and then World ability where next on the list, followed by Pair ability.
It is at this point i am sitting at 64 ribbons, and the sweet flavor of victory is almost here. Only 1 more ribbon - Multi ability. Little did i know that Multi ability would be Smeargle's kryptonite.
For those of you who do not know, to get the Multi ability ribbon - you must get 50 wins in double battles, but with a CPU partner. With this - making the choice of who i would be paired with is crucial. The slightest slip up will make me have to start all over. After a couple of fumbles getting to 20-30 wins, i finally get to the 40+ range. But it is at this point that the opponents are very strong - but this whole time, your partners to not getting any stronger or smarter. It is basically two vs. one. After months of trying and getting up around 40 wins and then failing because of my partner - i quit on this ribbon, at least for now.
Heart Gold and Soul Silver came out and added ONE ribbon (Thank goodness) and the golden leafs. I got the crown just for kicks onto Smeargle, and then beat Red to get the Legend Ribbon.
So - with all this work and effort i have put into this very lovely Smeargle, i am short just one ribbon to make it complete.
Here is a quick recap of the ribbons this lovely Smeargle has:
Any advice for getting the Multi Ability Ribbon? I want this ribbon before Black and White come out.
Thanks for reading - and any help would be VERY appreciated.
