Part 3: First Blood
I'm limiting my image count for this and future updates, they take up too much space to spam.
Route 3 revealed a Spearow. It seemed redundant with Sky around, but I caught it and named him Cloud.
Mount Moon gives up a Zubat. Of course. Speaking of things for which I am low on nicknames... Puta the Zubat will be boxed as well.
Shortly after learning Hyper Fang, Mara was killed by a Bellsprout in Mt. Moon. First death :( Shelly was moved up to active status to replace her.
Michael evolved!
We beat Super Nerd Miguel and escaped out on to Route 4. Encountering an Ekans, we caught her; Hollie will join the team immediately. Shelly, who is about 200 exp from evolving, will sit in the box again.
There's a fair bit of grinding to do before I'll feel confident enough to take on my rival, so I'll close this update for now.
Current Team
Michael the Wartortle, Bashful, Level 18
Sky the Pidgey, Brave, Level 17
Hollie the Ekans, Brave, Level 8
