Default Nuzlocke Update: Soul Silver

Gym Leaders Conquered

** Images are being used via Serebii
** Edit: I killed Jasmine 5 minutes after writing this update. I'm just gonna add her here :P

These updates are going to be slightly rapid. Chuck and Jasmine are right next to each other in terms of battling, and since I update after every gym, her update will come soon ^.^

In any case, the road to Cianwood after seeing Jasmine brought me a Tentacool. I like tentacool... and never used one ... so I decided to. I replaced Sally with Flop the tentacool, and I know it's not very inteligent to have 3 water types on a team ... but their unique typing is ... well unique lol. They actually do not have the same weaknesses :D

Before fighting Chuck ( and in my smartness visiting a pokemone center) I decided to explore the town and ran up, to find SUICUNE :O It saw me and ran, and oh dear Neptune that magician Eusine shows up. Dratnair was first and at half health, scared me have to death that battle but we prevailed, the rest of the team clearly help kill Eusine's.

After the battle ( and seeing how much a drowzee, haunter, and electrode scared me) I decided it was time for some team training. I intended on training both Flop and Dratnair to level 30, but I grew bored after training Dratnair to level 31 ( didn't let it evolve yet so she could learn Aqua tail, then let her evolve ;D ) and went straight to the gym. I figured Prank would be able to whip the gym. Wow what a fool I was lol.

The trainers themselves were no challenge to Prank bar Hitmonchan and his 4 punches of doom. He took everyone on my team's health down halfway, yet we did not have any casualties. That shoould have been a sign to stop being lazy BUT NO i pushed forward :D

The gym leader battle took about 20-30 minutes. Primeape died cleanly to Prank via Hypnosis+Confuse Ray and Shadow Punch Spam.
Poliwrath decided to give my team some trouble. I now know why Yoller got water absorb instead of Damp. :D
- At full health Yoller can take one of Poliwrath's Focus Punches (non criticalled of course)
- At full health Prank could take one of Poliwrath's Surf ( non critcalled of course)
I know that when a person does a nuzlocke, the critical chance of any enemy raises to 99.99% BUT I STILL PLAYED ON THAT .01%
and it thankfully worked in my favor. I weakened / slowed the poliwrath using Yoller's Mud Shot, thinking after a few heals and hits We could kill it, but abandoned that idea after it used Hypnosis then went to town with Focus Punch. Switched in Prank to block focus punch and try to put it to sleep. Why I did't use confuse ray THEN hypnosis I will never know. But after a few fail tries, potions ( from Palmy the little aipom with pick up ^.^) we managed to put it to sleep, confuse it, and destroy.

If that isn't a lucky win i don't know what is.

Heading back to Olivine Town to heal this amphoros and destroy Jasmine, and now just defeated her. I decided it's yoller's turn to take a gym, he's never gotten a chance to do one himself, and he did not dissapoint :) flawless victory :P
