Juukka's Ruby Nuzlocke Round 2

Sixth Gym Update

After defeating my father and successfully training Oinky to a suitable level, I decided it was time to head to Foretree City.

My team at this point is able to simply cruise through every challenge with little difficulty. With powerful moves and high attacking stats, my four party Pokemon work really well in tandem...

The Weather Institute was almost no challenge for Kipula the Marshtomp, who finally evolved into Swampert! So now my starter is the big, strong, bulky beast I had envisioned.

My rival May was also no trouble this time. Yunti the Mightyena took out Wailmer, Jarrila the Swellow took out Grovyle, and Kipula dismantled Numel.

Upon my arrival in Foretree I decided to speed right through and head to the next route, hoping to add a few extra levels to my team before moving on to Winona. Here I ran into Steven Stone, the mysterious trainer who seemed to always know where I was. He showed me the power of the Silph Scope and I showed him my power by catching the Kecleon that appeared.

With that out of the way I headed to the Gym and felt ready to face Winona. Sending Kipula in with its newly taught Ice beam. Swellow was no problem, Pelliper required some careful switching to avoid confusion but he went down, Skarmory was worn down with Surf, and Altaria couldn't set up in time to avoid Ice Beam's horrible power.

Six gyms in the bag, and now a chance to train and get ready for the game's next challenge.

Also considering adding a fifth Pokemon to the team, either from my PC Pokemon or through the upcoming wilds. Suggestions?

Current Roster

Kipula LV37

Jarrila LV37

Oinky LV34

Yunti LV32

PC Pokemon

Cemetary
