Update #6

The Pokemon...

...

The adventure from Aqua Hideout to Seafloor Cavern in text...

...

So, I had cleared out the Aqua Hideout & I'm now in hot pursuit of the Pirates. But first, I need to know how to dive. So I swim to Mossdeep to deal with the Gym Challenge there. After blitzing the minors with Hirador the Absol, I randomly approach the Gym Leader err...Leaders Liza & Tate & challenfge the two to a battle for Gym Badge #7.

To make a long battle short, Sprocket the Pikachu died after Paralyzing Lunatone, FrostGull died after Solrock gave it hell, & Atheno the Gyarados combined with Hirador to blitzkrieg the two & win Gym Badge #7, alongside the ability to Dive & the TM for Calm Mind.

After that I went to Steven's House to get the HM for Dive & find out that Linoone can't Dive. So I pay a visit to Shoal Cave to find a Diver. I eventually find one in the form of a Spheal & catch it, naming it Rollin'. I then return to Mossdeep, take Rollin' out of the PC at the expense of Khan the Combusken & teach Rollin' Dive, Strength, & Rock Smash. I then Surf my way to Sootopolis City, then Dive my way to the Seafloor Cavern, where I find a Submarine that the Pirates took. After using Sprocket to knock my way through the Pirates, I find a room with a massive Orca-like creature sleeping in it. Then The Pirates boss, Archie comes & challenges me to a battle.

I send in Atheno while Archie sent in a Mightyena. Mightyena showed he had Swagger, but Super Potions (Why on Earth would a Crime Syndicate Leader use a Super Potion, especially at this point in the game???) weren't enough to save Mighyena from the might of Atheno's Surfs.
Crobat was next, & was cleanly 2HKOed by a combination of Thunder & Blizzard from Atheno, even after a Super Potion.
And last was Sharpedo, who was also soundly 2HKOed by Atheno, via Thunder & Surf, winning me the battle convincingly.

After that, Archie used the power of his Red Orb (Err...Wrong Orb, Archie...) to make the Orca creature wake up & run off to the Cave of Origin, drenching all of Hoenn in a constant downpour. I then fly to Sootopolis deal with this...soon enough. So, 7 badges, things going really smoothly for me, & now I have to catch an Orca. And that's where we leave off...

And the Current Team...

...

That's Update #7 of my Sapphire Scramble...Meh.

And yeah, put challange in the dictionary...

Khan (Male Combusken) @ Nothing Lv:35/Quiet/Blaze -Bulk Up -Peck -Double Kick -Ember Types (Not Soloed, Underlines are omitted): Dark, Normal, Bug, Water, Flying, Grass, Fighting, Ground, Rock, Psychic, Poison, Ghost, Steel, Electric, Dragon, Gym Leader, Rival, Champion, Fire, Ice Comments: No use at all this update, primarily due to Water-Types & Psychic-Types...Well on the slide at the moment... Sprocket (Male Pikachu) @ Cleanse Tag Lv:36/Careful/Static -Thunder Wave -Quick Attack -Double Team -Thunderbolt Comments: Outclassed by Hirador, only useful against the Pirates. Thunderbolt far & away best attack, but Careful Nature sucks. Current LVP. Lolcat (Male Kadabra) @ Nothing Lv:36/Lax/Synchronise -Shadow Ball -Psybeam -Shock Wave -Thief Comments: Not much use this update, but It will come into play again, still doing well... FrostGull (Male Pelipper) @ Nothing Lv:36/Lonely/Keen Eye -Mist -Water Gun -Ice Beam -Wing Attack Comments: Not much use this update as well, needs a better Water Type attack, but still, a very good team member. Atheno (Male Gyarados) @ Nothing Lv:37/Modest/Intimidate -Surf -Thunder -Blizzard -Fire Blast Comments: Atheno, like Hirador, rose to prominence this update, with great type coverage, & the solo of Archie, Also having very good luck with the Thunder/Blizzard/Fire Blast combination, yet to miss with it...Current MVP Hirador (Female Absol) @ Nothing Lv:38/Mild/Pressure -Taunt -Fire Blast -Thunderbolt -Bite Comments: Hirador really has proven her worth & has also risen to prominence like Atheno, I well & truly underestimated this one before getting her. That's Update #7 of my Sapphire Scramble...Meh.
