Let's go to the beach, each.
I finally battled Skyla, and I had a pretty average time against her. I managed to defeat her Swoobat with my Serperior, which was sort of unexpected considering the type disadvantage that my Serperior had there. After that, I swapped out and used my Simipour against Skyla's Unfezant. That was an easy battle too, since I had Simipour's Rock Slide attack to fall back on. Once Skyla's Unfezant was down, I swapped out to Zebstrika. I used that against her pesky Swanna, and I beat it with one hit from Shock Wave. I got the Jet Badge from her as well as the TM containing the move Acrobatics. I left the Mistralton City Gym, but met N right outside. He talked and then I left to heal my Pokemon at the Pokemon Center. I saved there.

Recent Happenings in White

@The 4th KIRA: Ah yes, I remember that gym. I remember laughing out loud when that one cannon caused me to do a face-plant into a wall.

Okay, now for today's events in White. So the first thing I did today was explore Twist Mountain. I found a bunch of interesting stuff there, including a TM for Rock Slide. And there were lots of trainers for me to battle there. This was a good time for me to battle with the Pokemon I didn't use in the battle with Skyla. I also found a Cubchoo, but accidentally KO'd it... whatever, I still have an Ice Pokemon (Vanillish).

Near the end of Twist Mountain, I found Cheren again--he was mentioning something about contemplating what Alder said to him. And right next to him was the exit to Icirrus City!

...WOW. I like this city already. I was kind of expecting it to be cold and boring like Snowpoint (especially since I hear the gym is Ice-type), but instead I get a place that very much belongs in the Irish countryside, with some wonderful music playing. I was also surprised to find wild Pokemon in the ponds there, but didn't bother catching any of them yet.

What I did catch, though, was a Mienfoo--I found her in the grass near the Dragonspiral Tower. But I'll hold off on exploring that tower until later. First I let my new Mienfoo catch up to everybody by training her in Route 7. Then I explored Route 8 and the Moor of Icirrus, battling some trainers there and finding a TM for Sludge Bomb. And yeah, that's pretty much it for today.

Also today, before exploring Twist Mountain, I decided to train some of my grass Pokemon in the water for a while. While doing so, my Cottonee learned Razor Leaf, my Maractus learned Needle Arm, and my Deerling evolved to Sawsbuck. I dunno why I'm training them, since none of them will be on my team... And in the meantime I trained my Dewott in Mistralton Cave--he evolved to Samurott!

June 17th, 2011

Excerpt from Pokemon Trainer Justin's Journal:

So... Today was pretty awesome.

My girlfriend, Renee, she's up in Driftveil right now, trying to train up for Clay. And she's been begging me to start my journey soon.

And today, on our monthiversery, I received my first Pokemon! It's... It's insane. I'm a trainer now. Professor Juniper dropped off a box at my house in the morning while I was sleeping, and when I woke up, Cheren was telling me to hurry up. Bianca took forever, as usual.

And I met Albus, the Oshawott. Bianca chose the Tepig, whom she named Porkchop, and Cheren got stuck with Snivy, whom he named Julian.

And there was a battle! Our first battle! It was so cool; Albus is a wrecking machine! He was just a flurry of attacks; and we won!

We headed over to Juniper's lab, but Bianca had to talk to her dad. I don't know why, we all knew her dad would make thigns ten times more difficult than it needed to be. But she went home, and I followed, to make sure she was alright. Her dad was yelling at her again, and Bianca was close to tears. She ran out, and I followed suite.

Cheren was waiting and Juniper's Lab, so when Bianca and I got there, we immediately went in. She gave us our Pokedexes, which is pretty cool. Then she asked us to meet her at Route 1, and she headed out.

Cheren, Bianca, and I decided to take our first steps into our journey together. Juniper wasn't very far away, and she immediately called us over. She had found a Patrat, and, with her Minccino, she caught it. As a demonstration, you know?

She gave us Pokeballs so that we could catch our own Pokemon, and said she'd meet us in the next city. I guess she was feeling really couped up in Nuvema. We probably should have followed her, but Bianca offered a bet. Whoever could catch the most Pokemon by the time we got to Accumula Town.

And we were off. Cheren and Bianca went up further ahead, and I stayed behind. I wanted to see what I could catch near my hometown, so I could go home and heal up a bit with mom. I caught a Patrat, whom I named Looker after the famous police guy who helped Dawn, Lucas and Barry save Sinnoh, and a Lillipup that I named Pronto. It seemed fitting.

I've been training Albus quite a bit too, trying to build up his attack. The Patrat and Lillipup in the area seem to be pretty good practice for Albus' attack.

And that's all I've been doing. Maybe I'll start training Looker and Pronto soon, but for now, I'm focusing on Albus.

Team Go!

Meowth City's Pokemon White Journey II - Part Three

After battling all the trainers in Pinwheel Forest, I head back into Castelia City through the Skyarrow Bridge. This time, I go into the Battle Company building and I see a janitor heading in the elevator asking me to challenge the staff, so I battle everyone on both floors. The last battle is with the janitor and his Pokemon, which my Wims takes out easily. Once I beat him, he reveals that he is actually the Chairman of the company disguised as a janitor and, as a reward, he gives a very useful Exp. Share. Then I leave and head out to the center of the city and battle a dancer. After beating him, he asks that I find the other dancers, which I do. After winning against the other two dancers, I head back to talk to the first dancer and get given an Amulet Coin from him. I attached it to my Wims for the time being. Now, I head back in Route 4 to battle everyone there before heading back into Nimbasa City, where I left off...

This time around, I head towards the Pokemon Musical Theatre where Bianca is waiting. We head inside and the theatre's owner is kind enough to give us the Prop Case and I have fun dressing up my Hammos for practice. Bianca leaves, so I follow her out and witness another scene with her dad. Suddenly, Elesa - the city's gym leader and a model - appears and defends Bianca to her dad. Finally, Bianca's dad realises he is wrong and lets his daughter travel around Unova (thank heavens for that!). After all of that, I make my way to the amusement park in hopes of battling the gym, but before that happens, I am approached by N and we go on the ferris wheel to look for Team Plasma. While we are on the wheel, N reveals the truth that he is the King of Plasma. After we get off the wheel, N challenges me to another battle to give his grunts time to escape. I beat him and he mutters something as always and leaves. I head inside the gym and battle every trainer while riding the cool rollercoasters. At the end, I heal and challenge Elesa. I easily sweep her team with Wims and get the Bolt Badge. I quickly head to the east towards the next city, and sudden Cheren comes out to challenge me again. After beating him, Elesa introduces us to Alder the Champion of the Unova region and he makes us battle two preschoolers in a double battle to teach Cheren about the fun of battling. I easily beat the kids with hardly any help, causing Cheren to rethink his priorities. After this battle, my Wims evolves into its final evolution (yay!) then we are led by Elesa, who calls Clay to close the bridge for us to cross. Once that is done, I ride the Driftveil Drawbridge to Driftveil City and as soon as I enter, I discover that Clay has been having trouble with Plasma grunts. He agrees to battle us once we get rid of those Plasma grunts, so off to Cold Storage we go.

But before that, I backtrack yet again. This time, I head back to Route 5 to catch my new team member. It takes me a while to find the one I want - a Solosis with Magic Guard, but I eventually catch one and I nickname it Gummy Bear. With GB in my team, I head out to Route 16 and Nimbasa sport stadiums to do some training. Once I'm done, I go back to Old Storage to take out Team Plasma, sliding through the place before reaching a cold unit where I find a Plasma Sage huddling up to his grunts for warmth. Cheren follows me in and helps me defeat half of them. Then Clay and his workers arrest them and take them away, so me and Cheren decide it's time to leave for the gym. On my way back, I go around town for items and the first triple battle of the game. As soon as I reach the gym, I notice Ghetsis has arrive to claim his minions. Him and Clay have words with the latter telling Plasma to get lost. They do and Clay invites me and Cheren for a gym battle. Cheren goes to train before taking on Clay and I decide to do the same at Route 6. After training up a few levels, my Gummy Bear evolves in Duosion and is ready to take on Clay. Inside, I beat everyone in the gym and make my way round this underground mine before finally taking the last lift to Clay himself. After quite a tough battle with all three of my Pokemon taking part, I get the Quake Badge and Clay tells me to wait for him at the entrance of Chargestone Cave. I leave the gym and make my way out of the city to the next destination.

As I step out onto Route 6, I get challenged to another battle with Bianca. After an easy victory, Bianca gives me a great gift - HM02 Fly - and leaves to find Cheren. I continue through the route until reaching the entrance of Chargestone Cave and, like he promised, Clay shows up with his Pokemon and clears the way for me to continue. He gives me the TM for Bulldoze before leaving. Before heading in, I decide it's time to try and catch another team member. I use a couple of Super Repels and ride my bike until I see a rustling spot of grass. After a while, I find exactly what I'm looking for, which is an Emolga and I catch it quite easily. I nickname him Richmond and put on the Exp. Share to help level him up. Soon after I head inside, some mysterious guys appear out of nowhere and drag me towards N, who says the same stuff as before and leaves. I continue forwards only to be interupted again, this time by Bianca and Juniper, who is researching the cave. I get some interesting advice from Bianca and push a couple of magnetized rocks out of my way. On my way, I battle more trainers and Plasma grunt as well as picking up some items. Finally, I reach the end of the cave but before I can leave, N challenges me again. After another win, N rants a little more when Bianca and Juniper show up. Everyone leaves, so I head outside and look around the city. As I head up, I bump into Professor Cedric Juniper (Juniper's father) and he upgrades my pokedex to view different formes of Pokemon. Next to him is Skyla, the city's gym leader, who goes to Celestic Tower to help a hurt Pokemon. Next destination - Celestic Tower! But for now, I save the game.

I used Ditto in the Battle Subway and it worked fairly well. Too bad it didn't make it further in the third wave. If only I had its Dream World ability, Imposter, I would've made it further.

Insert clever title
Finally got my Kyurem to level 100! WOOHOO! PARTY! And I tried to do the battle subway. I did the Single Line, and I beat the first 7 battles, and 6 of the next battles, and then I lost :/

Let's go to the beach, each.
After having healed my Pokemon at the Mistralton City Pokemon Center, I headed for Route 7 again since I had to go to Twist Mountain in order to access Icirrus City. I got to Route 7 and I trained a bit in the tall grass against the wild Pokemon there. I captured a wild Watchog and then I headed to the other side of Route 7. I ran into my rival Cheren, and we began to battle it out there on Route 7, right before getting to Twist Mountain. I won that battle after strugging a bit, and then Alder appeared and he gave us both the HM containing the move Surf. I taught that to my Simipour and then I headed off to Twist Mountain. I saved right inside there after having talked to Clay.

After I took Roserade through the Elite 4 to get experience I FINALLY went to Undella Bay with a bunch of grass and electric types. Roserade, Rotom, Virizion, and Galvantula to be exact. After I beat all the trainers in the area I dived to the Abyssal Ruins which is very cool. I do not like the step counter though. It took me a few tries before I collected all the Plates though. Unfortunately, I could not figure out where to go to advance to the second floor so I left for the time being. I decided to take on the Elite 4 with the second team I EV trained for the first time (Golurk, Drapion, Galvantula, Samurott, Gallade, Darmanitan). They are in the upper 60's/lower 70's range so I am sure I will be fine.

Been a while since I posted here:

Finally bred that Cloyster I was going for, raised it up to level 99. Also got Victini and Chandelure up to 100.

Also bred Conkeldurr, Reuniclus, and an insane 31/31/31/26/31/21 Ferrothorn, who are all on their way to level 100.

Currently working on Jellicent, who is being a pain, since I'm going for a Water Absorb Male, but I can't seem to get both of those traits on a good IV'd baby.

Also bought a new White so I could play through without erasing my lovelies.

Trying to find every nature Dittos - apart from the neutral natures. It is a real pain as I only need Calm, Bold and Adamant until i have every one but unfortunately Timid and Hasty ones keep popping up.

EDIT: Got an Adamant one, 2 mins after I wrote this!

After speaking with Clay, I explored Twist Mountain some more since I had to navigate through it to get to the Icirrus City Gym. I wandered around and I encountered some trainers who wanted to battle me. I did that and I also trained against some of the wild Pokemon within Twist Mountain. I got outside eventually, but I had to enter another cave before setting off again. I got out of that cave after battling some more, and I healed my Pokemon thanks to a doctor class trainer outside of the mountain. I went inside once more, and I located some items there. I battled yet again, and then I managed to emerge in the center of Twist Mountain. I entered the cave down there, and I found the exit of the mountain. I saved before heading out.

Man was I in an EV Training mood this morning. I EV trained a Reshiram in record time this morning. Then I decided to switch from Special Attacker to Attacker so I EV trained a Rufflet. Finally, I switched again and EV trained a Stunfisk. Well almost EV trained Stunfisk because I still need to beat a few more Litwicks before Stunfisk is complete. When Stunfisk is completed I will have finished EV Training my fourth team, although Rufflet and Reshiram are members of my 5th team.

Meowth City's Pokemon White Journey II - Part Four

From Mistralton City, I enter the new route and notice the wooden risen walkways. I battle all the trainers including one guy in a triple battle. In one of the house, one man offers an Emolga in return for a Boldore. Seeing as I have my own, I obviously decline the trade. I get some berries from the Rangers and pick up some nice TMs and items on the ground. Then I head into the Celestic Tower battling all the trainers inside, as well as picking up items, until I finally reach the top. There I see Skyla, who has given the hurt Pokemon a Max Revive. On her suggestion, I ring the Celestic bell to hear the soothing sounds that reveal the hearts of those who ring it. Upon hearing the bell, Skyla comments on my character and invites me back to the gym for a battle. We leave and both of us head to the gym, where I get my free Fresh Water and battle all the trainers as always. After flying through the cannons, I finally reach the end where Skyla waits for me. With Richmond, the battle is relatively easy and after winning against her, Skyla gives me the Jet Badge. I then take the cannon just behind her to shoot back to the beginning of the gym. As I step outside, N approaches me and talks to my Pokemon before leaving as usual. With my business in Mistralton finished, I continue on my journey to the next city...

On my way there, I get a phone call from my Mum who tells me that she proud of how I have grown with my Pokemon. Soon I arrive at the entrance of Twist Mountain, where sudden Cheren runs up to me for yet another battle. After winning again, Alder appears at the top of the mountain cliff and then jumps off the edge to the bottom (o.o) and gives us both HM04 Surf. After he and Cheren leave, I make my way into the mountain and see Cheren with Clay. We speak a while before parting ways and I take the time to explore the mountain. After going through the place, I finally reach the exit where I see Cheren again - this time talking to two Plasma grunts. They say something about their plans at the Dragonspiral Tower before departing quickly. Cheren decides to stay in the mountain to investigate, so I leave and bump into Cedric outside. After he tells me more about the Dragonspiral Tower and leaves, I arrive into the next location - Icurris City. I go straight for the gym picking up my free Fresh Water and battle every trainer there as usual before taking on the leader, Brycen. The battle is probably the easiest of all gym battles with all my Pokemon taking part and I get the Freezing Badge as a prize. I slide down the icy slope (officially my favourite Unova gym) and exit the place. After stepping out of the gym, Cheren and Bianca show up together talking about some trouble at the Dragonspiral Tower. Cheren heads towards the north, whereas Bianca is not sure whether she wants to get involved. As for me, I want to get another team member before I deal with this. After getting a taste of some icy goodness from the last gym, I decide to head back into Twist Mountain to look for a Cubchoo. Given the fact that it is still Summer, it takes a long time but I do manage to find one and catch it - I nickname it SnowPatrol.

Back in Icirrus, I head towards the north and see Cedric standing there and Bianca running up behind me. After a talk with the Professor, he gives me an Old Gateau and tells me to head into Dragonspiral. I go inside and as I enter the next floor, the ground shakes. In the next room, Cheren calls out for me from across the room. He tells me about the pillars and that I can walk on them. I make my way to the next room which has several ramps all over, so I navigate around, grabbing an item on the way, and make it to the next floor. I witness Brycen and Cheren holding off some grunts. They tell me to go ahead without them, and I battle the remaining grunts. I continue up to the next levels going through an unusual maze until I am ambushed by a Sage and four grunts at once. After sweeping through them, I head into the highest peak and witness an epic scene with N befriending Reshiram. He tells me some stuff then flies off on Reshiram. I appear back at the entrance and meet with Cedric, Bianca and Cheren there. Adler shows up and tells us all to head to the Desort Resort to obtain the Dark Stone, so I fly to Nimbasa City and head south. I make my way to the desert area and head up to the entrance of the Relic Castle with the statues, when Cheren suddenly appears. I go inside and walk around slowly to avoid falling into the quicksand. I speak with a girl who offer me one of two fossils, so I choose the Plume Fossil although I have no intention of using it. I battle all the grunts (during which, my Gummy Bear and SnowPatrol evolve to their final forms at the exact same time - wow first time that happened for me in any game) and drop down into the sand until I reach the bottom with Cheren close behind. It is there that I see Alder and Ghetsis arguing about Pokemon liberation. After a lengthy discussion, we all leave and I get a call from Professor Juniper who tells me to come to Nacrene Museum ASAP. Cheren decides to stay and investigate the Castle, where I save the game.

http://www.serebii.net/blackwhite/plasma.shtml

Anyway, I got out of Twist Mountain, and I met up with Cedric Juniper. We chatted for a little while, but then he left and I was allowed to visit the local Pokemon Center. I quickly healed my team there and then I bought the TM containing Fire Blast from the Poke Mart there. I taught that to Darumaka, and then I headed for the ponds there in Icirrus City, since I wanted to train my Pokemon as well as capture some new ones for my growing collection. I encounrtered a wild Palpitoad and a wild Stunfisk, and I captured them both. I got around and trained some more, but then I had to heal my team again at the Pokemon Center. I saved the game shortly after finishing my training.
