hahaha holy crazy shit jump you did the impossible congrats :D

SERIOUSLY HOW IN THE NAME OF FACTORY DID THORTON FAIL TO PUT YOU AWAY THERE??????????????????? that, my friend, is the most insane luck against any frontier brain one can have right there...seriously, I would´ve bet 100 bucks on a CH stone edge turn1 any day of the week

STONE EDGE is the frontier man I mean move, whatever perspective you look at it (yeah it sucks so much lol)

I will never ever get gold in the factory just because, you know, I spent ages in emerald, even more than you did and beat 42 just once in the million times I tried :/

whatever, got to 28 in the lv.50 factory (it´s a lot more fun and had really cool pokémon, also its nice to learn the movesets this way)

yeah, basically the most important thing is team synergy, highest priority being type coverage...I mean with fire-water-grass you almost never go wrong (this combo works wonders for me)

like always, I am swapping like crazy, 18 in 21 this time and 22 in 28 IIRC

15-21 I had the sexy fake out, close combat, fire punch u-turn infernape as my starter which is pure win, I also had a very cool seadra that I swapped after the first battle (surf, ice beam) and a 3rd poké I swapped a lot

22-28 I had thrower+air slash charizard which was supported by a water type (water absorb poliwrath first, then kingdra, then WA politoed) and vileplume which saved my butt a few times

battle #28 I knew I would face a sheer cold user...I hoped for an abomasnow or something, faced the crazy sheer cold lapras set (for everyone who doesn´t know this "new" variation of sheer drill lappy, this one has sing (!), confuse ray (!) and perish song (!) awful (btw. confusion is the worst status ever) so yeah...it messed up my team, confused, sung twice (sing and perish) but missed sheer cold twice overall...it switched out twice during the match, in the end vileplume killed it and I somehow won the whole battle

then comes the "before 29-35 options"...well, they kind of sucked

I went with the blaze kick infernape (thunderpunch, shadow claw, gunk shot...yeah I know), swampert (swampert is always great to have...curse, hammer, aqua tail) and ideally there would be a grass type...but there were only these

physical raichu (t-punch, sweet kiss, t-wave, focus punch = no way)
physical hypno (._.)
golem (iron ball, gyro ball, quake, hammer arm?...dunno)
the big face magnet with stone edge, explosion, quake...dunno

tough choice on #3...maybe I should´ve gone hypno or exploder...but went with the seemed-to-be-more-reliable-golem, which meant major grass weak, hopefully ape lives when a grass comes up

#29 oponent no special type :/
infernape vs pinsir
pretty nice face off...well until he endured the blaze kick and flailed ape to inferno :(
yeah mistake, should´ve switched in golem and beat it but I prefer not to switch unless really important...
golem eats the flail like a man and KOs

in comes... ... ... leafeon ... ... ... there you go grass weak...leaf blades me to hell in 2 turns :(

was a very nice streak this one...later it always comes down to the choice you get
