Platinum Walkthrough Tournament - Round 1
It’s been a while since you started your journey. Your badge case is significantly heavier than it once was, your PC is full of countless creatures you’ve encountered, and your bag is stuffed with the fruits of your labors, each Pokemon, item, and badge bearing a memory attached to it.
As you emerge from The Great Marsh a few Pokeballs lighter and a bit muddier, you look upon your current residence, Pastoria City. Its damp muggy feel leaves you longing for the clear airs of Twinleaf town. Your homesickness doesn’t discourage you though. Entering the Pastoria Gym with nothing more than a slightly overleveled Roselia, you easily crush through your opponents, wondering why exactly they all choose to use nothing but a single, easily exploited type.
Inside of the Move Tutor’s house, you dig around your bag for those loose Heart Scales you were saving. Trading them to him affords your Pokemon a whole host of new attacks for them to use, you can’t wait to try them out on some unsuspecting trainer. Suddenly you hear a familiar voice.
“Hey, remember me?”
Instantly you recognize the voice of your rival. You gaze upon him with eager anticipation because you know what’s going to happen next.
“You didn’t think I’d let you get ahead of me, did you? I got this badge ages ago. I was just in the neighborhood and heard you had barely scraped a win off of Crasher Wake, and had to see for myself if it was true.”
His taunting only serves to wet your appetite for the upcoming bout.
“Anyway, I figured, if I’m here, and you’re here, we might as well entertain ourselves for a bit. How about we compare Pokemon with a battle? You’re no match for my newest and greatest Pokemon.”
And with that, you graciously accept. Standing apart you both ready your Pokeballs, knowing that this will be one of the fiercest battles yet.
