Nuzlocke Update, whee!
Update #1
Update #2
Okay, so following the Rustboro Gym, I go to find what is going on with the incompetent businessman. Turns out he was robbed...Not my fault, but he literally forces me to help him out in order to progress through the game...Fucking incompetent businessmen...So I see what was going on...After teaching Ninja the Nincada Cut...And defeating two School kids...And boxing Ninja again...And it turns out it was some random pirate with a Wingull hostage. As much as I want to let him run free, I could not, otherwise I would get killed by incompetent businessmen...So I battle the Pirate. His Poochyena did nothing but Howl, allowing Great Moth to drain it out of battle. Whee...
After a boring meeting where I get some pointless gizmo, I set sail for Dewford with some creepy sailor. Upon arrival in Dewford, I get an Old Rod from a Fisherman, & use it to fish in Dewford City, catching the first Pokemon I get on the rod.
It was...
Tentacool [Jellyfish] (F)
Lv:9 | Clear Body | Docile
Caught: Dewford City
-Poison Sting
-Supersonic
Yay Neutral Nature, boo shit attacks, But I keep Jellyfish in the party for now. I then decide to try my luck at Granite Cave as to what Pokemon I get, encountering & catching the first Pokemon I see.
It was...
Geodude [Golem] (M)
Lv:6 | Rock Head | Quirky
Caught: Granite Cave
-Tackle
-Defence Curl
-Mud Sport
Could have been worse. Neutral Nature is okay, but No Ability to trade evolve sucks. Nevertheless, I keep Golem in the party & go back to earlier routes to Grind Golem & Jellyfish to Level 13. Takes a while, but I do it. Not satisfied with Jellyfish's Power, though, I box Jellyfish for now.
After that, I then make the trek to give Steven his letter. The two Fisherman on Route 106 were easy, Golem handling the first, & the second being a mixed effort between Racoon, Golem, & Atlantean. Granite Cave was Wild Pokemon galore, even though I decide to kill everything for experience, & this is where I tell users just how useful Racoon & Pickup is: The consistent stream of Super Potions & Nuggets, with the occasional Rare Candy thrown in, has really aided me...Nevertheless, I get to Steven, give him his Letter, & get ready to push Great Moth through Dewford Gym.
In short, Gust is an OP Move at this point of the game. With it, Great Moth steamrolls the Gym Trainers, before the fight with Brawly happens. Even with Bulk Up threatening to slow Great Moth down & potentially derailing it, Great Moth kept focus. A steady stream of Gusts from him really took their toll on Brawly, eventually taking out both his Pokemon with little troubles. Second Gym Badge get!
And with that, that is all for the update, here are my Pokemon as of now...
