I started Violet on Friday and picked Quaxly as my starter which is unusual for me as I almost always pick the fire starter for new generations. On the first route of the game I caught a Shiny Tarountula which I have since evolve though I won't be using it. I caught a Fidough for my team and did...
I made my way to the fourth trial which was surprisingly not terrible. I felt no shame healing Torracat everytime Lurantis used Synthesis. With that taken care of I made my way through Diglett's Tunnel, caught a bunch of mischievous Ditto and took on Olivia for my second Grand Trial. Truthfully...
After getting a high score in Mantine Surfing and learning a new trick I arrived in Heahea City and ran around a bit before scurrying to Route 4 to capture my fourth team member, a Mudbray! I struggled coming up with my last member and I remembered struggling against a later Trial in my Ultra...
I started a new game on Ultra Sun since I enjoyed my last play through of Ultra Moon. Same general rule as last time....no Exp Share. I'm ready to be hurt.
I picked Litten as my starter as it is my favorite of the three and also caught my second team member, a Yungoos. Curse my wanting to use...
I bought both versions of the new games but began with Brilliant Diamond as I played Diamond first initially. I picked my favorite starter, Turtwig, and also caught a Kricketot to use since I've never beaten the Elite 4 with Kricketune and I want to use a few Pokemon I maybe haven't used as much...
You know I thought I was being clever with Probopass because most people would assume Mario would be the better nickname. Turns out I used it before in an old Platinum playthrough probably not too long after it initially came out. I used to trade my main teams over to my main Gen file which was...
It's been a few months since I posted about my White 2 Challenge Mode run but I have been trying to make an effort lately to finish up old play throughs so I picked up White 2 and continued on. I started up just outside Victory Road (looks like my last post ended with me beating the seventh gym...
On my way to the sixth trial I fished up my fifth team member, a Bruxish! Totem Mimikyu ended up being the easiest totem fight surprisingly. After traveling to Po Town to save a Yungoos I tried taking on the Grand Trial and lost over and over and over. I trained up my team and while training I...
Not sure if I am just inept with computers or what because I can't figure out how to upload the picture but....
AFTER NINE MONTHS OF MISERY I FINALLY GOT SHINY LUGIA!!!!!!
I ended up chucking the Master Ball at it because I was too terrified to attempt to attack it. Naive nature which isn't...
These Totem battles are brutal. I assumed Totem Lurantis would be easier considering my team are all strong against it and I still lost the first battle. I ended up trading for the Arbok in the Pokemon Center and its Intimidate helped me win my second battle along with a lucky critical hit from...
Once I arrived in Heahea City I met the Kahuna and explored a bit before a difficult battle against Sina and her stupid Glaceon. Fortunately Grubbin isn't weak against Ice and barely won the battle with Bug Bite. I ran along Route 4 and arrived in Paniola Town where Hau was unsuccessful in...
I was able to get a new copy of Ultra Moon cheap so I began a new file. After some back and forth between Rowlet and Litten I decided to go with Rowlet. Once I saved Nebby from the Spearow I quickly caught a Grubbin as my second team member because I feel like I didn't get the Vikavolt...
I got two shinies in Shield this morning! First a Morpeko which is my only shiny from Dynamax Adventures so far. Secondly I encountered a Shiny Amaura after only 102 encounters! I may try Tyrunt next to complete the 6th gen fossil set.
I headed north of Undella Town and explored the rather long Route 13 with nothing of note and completely ignored a Cobalion just chilling on the way to Lacunosa Town. With nothing of note apart from a Plasma battle I ran through Route 12, Village Bridge, and Route 11 before arriving in Opelucid...
Clay ended up not being too difficult. Scraggy brought down Krokorok and Onix with Brick Break and did decent damage against Sandslash with Ice Punch before Servine had to come in and finish it off. Excadrill was a nuisance for sure but I just had literally everyone do as much damage against it...
I trained my team in the stadiums and on Route 16 (mostly against Audino) to Level 30 and decided to tackle Elesa's gym. That was a mistake. I lost very very badly because she just wouldn't stop using Volt Switch. I got Servine to Level 32 so it could learn Leaf Blade and everyone else to Level...
White 2 Challenge Mode let's go! Because it's Challenge Mode it only seemed fair to pick Snivy as my starter. We made it through the beginning with no real problems and I caught a Mareep in Floccessy Ranch to have some help against Cheren. Turns out that was not enough. Snivy took care of his...
I saw Ishiftyounot was playing White and decided to start a new game on Black but started just a bit too late to play along. Due to my own laziness I never bothered posting about it but since COVID hit a few people at the office they have everyone working from home for a few weeks which meant I...
