Also, since I've done a bunch in the game, I'm just gonna post this update (even though I havent beaten a gym yet).

The First Losses

-After defeating Koga I finally decided to get my team up to adequate standards in terms of levels.
-Went to route 14, trained, and captured Soucanmew? the Mild Ditto, who was boxed immediately.
-Flew out to the Power Plant, hoping to catch an Electabuzz, and praying that a Magnemite would not appear, I ended up finding a Pikachu. Captured Samus the Modest Pikachu. A new team member and a great Pokemon to use against my rival
-Went to Celadon, finished getting Shadow Ball, got a Thunder Stone, and evolved Samus into Raichu.
-Finished grinding Samus up to par.
-After a bit my team was up to snuff, so I decided to go to Saffron City and defeat the fighting Dojo.
-Again, Hokus raped, and somehow I accidently picked Hitmonchan instead of Hitmonlee =/. Oh well, The un-nicknamed Bold Hitmonchan was immediately boxed.
-Went into the Silph Co. Building and systematically eliminated all the grunts.
-After clearing all floors of immediately accessable grunts, I got the card key and ko'd all the ones that could be defeated from behind doors.
-Found my rival and easily defeated him. Recieved Lapdance the Mild Lapras. With that my team was complete.
-Easily defeated Giovanni, and surprisingly Lapdance did quite a bit. Recieved the Master Ball
-Left Silph, healed, and entered the Gym. Was grinding Lapdance when a Ghastly used Destiny Bond as I Surfed for the KO. R.I.P. Lapdance, you had such potential.
-Left the gym, and after a series of failures where I captured Fuckme the Quiet Seaking and acquired Loophole the Naughty Magikarp (fitting nature), I finally got Heretakeit the Relaxed Poliwag. It needed to be evolved, but it was only 6 levels, so I thought I could pull through and get a Jynx.
-Nope, since I didnt have the EXP. Share I had to train Heretakeit the enter and switch out method... a Fearrow hit me with Pursuit... R.I.P. Heretakeit. And with you goes my last hope of getting a Jynx.
-Disheartened I withdrew Layla the Eevee from my Reserves and evolved it into a Vaporeon.
-As for precationary purposes, I wanted to catch a Shellder... But Vermillion City was evil to me and I ended up getting Bisquick the Careful Horsea. So then I went to Cinabar Island where I finally caught Rassberry the Hasty (meh) Shellder.
-ANOTHER TRAINING ACCIDENT!! Layla took the brunt of a Weezings Selfdestruct during training. God, this game just wont let me have a water type. Those were 3 of my potentially best Pokemon, all gone.
-Rassberry Joins the team... he has a long way to go...

The Team

The Reserves

The Dead

State of the Union

God, this game just wont let me have a water type. Those were 3 of my potentially best Pokemon, all gone. -Rassberry Joins the team... he has a long way to go... The Team Chobani the Quiet Venasaur (M) Level 40 Ability: Overgrow Moves: Tackle, Razor Leaf, Sleep Powder, Leech Seed Opinion: He is really the same as last update... just stronger. Still the Team Leader, but has really been hanging out in the background as the other members of my team have really been dominating. But still, he is great to have and I still wouldnt be able to progress without him. Gotlegs? the Serious Dugtrio (M) Level 40 Ability: Sand Veil Moves: Cut, Rock Slide, Slash, Dig Opinion: Just like Chobani, this guy hasnt really been seeing a whole lot of action. He didn't even partake in the battle against Giovanni. Still strong and reliable, he really just needs Earthquake. But still, overall he is just kinda on the backburner for now. Hokus the Hardy Kadabra (M) Level 41 Ability: Inner Focus Moves: Reflect, Recover, Psybeam, Psychic Opinion: Same as last chapter. But with Baloo in the mix, his MVP status may be disputed. But still, he has the Best STAB, and the movepool to pull it off. All he needs is evolution-- which I am just too lazy to do right now. Baloo the Brave Snorlax (M) Level 41 Ability: Immunity Moves: Body Slam, Rest, Brick Break, Shadow Ball Opinion: A really fantastic member to have. Amazing coverage, great bulk and power, and a great nature. He is definitely in contention for MVP, and will probably solo Sabrina. Just gotta keep him alive until then. Samus the Modest Raichu (F) Level 40 Abiltiy: Static Moves: Thunderbolt, Strength, Brick Break, Double Team Opinion: The only girl on the team, she isnt awful, but she isnt great either. She is frail, and isnt as fast or packing the STABs like the other frail members of the team do. But still, she can easily take care of half my rivals team, and will be of great help against Loreli. Looking forward to using her more, as she is fun to battle with. Rassberry the Hasty Shellder (M) Level 19 Ability: Shell Armor Moves: Icicle Spear, Tackle, Withdraw, Supersonic Opinion: LVP simply because it is weak. Also, unlike the other members of the team, I really dont want Rassberry here. He was brought out as I really had no other alternatives and needed the Ice/Water Coverage. Hope he lives long enough to change that, as all my water types seem to die quickly. The Reserves Foster the Serious Pidgey (M); Level 2 Percy the Sassy Primeape (M); Level 30 Rattata the Gentle Rattata (M); Level 3 Worma the Lax Metapod (F); Level 5 Ruffrabble the Docile Fearrow (M); Level 30 Rocker the Mild Geodude (M); Level 8 Mushu the Jolly Ekans (M); Level 6 Only2? the Jolly Weedle (F); Level 7 Ishmael the Gentle Oddish (M); Level 13 HallyBerry the Adamant Meowth (F); Level 10 Hephalumpy the Bold Drowzee (M); Level 15 BabyBoomer the Bold Voltorb (-); Level 14 Bruce the Careful Zubat (M); Level 15 Chance the Serious Growlithe (M); Level 16 Grim the Calm Ghastly (M); Level 18 No Worries the Bold Doduo (M); Level 24 Darius the Lonely Nidoran (M); Level 24 Soucanmew? The Mild Ditto (M); Level 23 ??? the Bold Hitmonchan (M); Level 25 Fuckme the Quiet Seaking (F); Level 21 Loophole the Naughty Magikarp (F); Level 5 Bisquick the Careful Horsea (M); Level 15 The Dead Lapdance the Mild Lapras (F) Levels 25-27 Final Words: A great Pokemon who instantly pulled her wieght. I wish I could have done better, farewell my friend. Heretakeit the Relaxed Poliwag (F) Levels 19-23 Final Words: I really should put a picture of Jynx here, because that is what died, not his unfortunate Pokemon. I never liked her (as evidence by the name), but oh well, good bye. Layla the Quirky Vaporeon Levels 25-27 Final Words: The exact same case as Lapdance. She was a Pokemon full of unrealized potential. I am sorry I failed you, take care my dear friend. State of the Union While technically it is the same as last time, I really wanted that Lapras/Vaporeon/Jynx. It would have made so many battles that much easier. Now I have to rely on a crappy natured Shellder. But the other 5 members of the team look strong and powerful, so not all hope is lost. Wish me luck that I will finally fill my 6th team slot and win this thing! __________________ My CAB ASB Team My Pokemon Challenge Archive Join The Legend of Avatar if you are a fan of the "Avatar: The Last Airbender" Awesome battle between two great teams: Shout out to GarytheGengar who's team was the basis for both teams battling.
