Free CUT HM, sweet. I'll give it to......MONDO. BISHAMON10 could really use an attack move that has more than 15 PP and can hit Flying, but I doubt I'll want a slot tied to an HM once he starts learning real moves.
Hm, looks like I have two new Routes open to me. I'll check them out before I dust this gym.
...okay, I have one new route with Pokemon on it at least. >_> Looks like we get SLAKOTH. Snag her first try. She shall be SACCHI. That won't be much help against a Rock gym, so let's just jump in instead.
I can OHKO everything up to the Nosepass, which doesn't take much damage from Bubble and strikes back for nearly half MONDO's health. BISHAMON10 takes him down, but not before Nosepass takes half his health. Dude's a tank. Rock Tomb I WILL teach my Groudon, because I am not sticking with Mud Shot until level whatever.
After a quick sweep to see what stuff I can get with Cut (not all that much) it's time to go bail the Devon guy out again! It's apparent that SACHI really isn't going to work very well...unless maybe she gets good attacks soon. Nonetheless, she's only second on the priority list to rotate off the team- I have no use for ESTRADA as long as MONDO is alive....assuming Corphish can surf and all that, anyway.
....or I could not have to worry about it. A trained Shroomish gets an untimely crit, and Sachi dies to poison. This route is really annoying, as it has Shroomish running various status things, and Duskull with Disable. Trainers are a relative pain, too, and there are a lot of them. I almost lose RAPTH while not paying attention against a Ralts.
Oh hey, new Pokemon opportunity. Our first contestant is...Pelipper! .....It tanks my entire bag of pokeballs. Luckily I have money from all those trainer fights, but GEEZE. I am thinking I might see if I can cheat me up some master balls or something, because this is just a hassle. It's not really like it's adding to the challenge, either, since I have the redo clause. It's just making things difficult and less random, since I am only gonna be able to grab more catchable pokemon. Then again, I have no idea how to cheat with my perfectly legit GBA.
Next potential is a Dratini, which I crit and OHKO. And a Gloom, which I forgot doesn't resist Mud Shot and thus also OHKO'd. Man, good thing I'm doing a pansy Nuzlocke- I'm pretty bad at this. >_> Another Pelipper...I get it this time, after like five shots. Another water type "yay." At least I am kinda fond of this species. As I recall I had a Pelipper for quite some time on my team in the real game. I can't think of any good names, but it evolves from a seagull and because I am an umineko fanboy that means he shall be called NONAKU.
Alright, time to get NONAKU a few levels before moving o- FRIGGIN' WHY DOES REGISTEEL HAVE EXPLOSION AT LEVEL 6
