Ugh...long day. Hugh woke me up at the crack of dawn to go looking for those Plasma ass holes. For those who don't know, Castelia is the biggest city in Unova, and I spent half the day running around looking for those tards. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack. I got a free bike from a clown so I guess there's that. By noon I was like "screw this, I'm heading for the gym." But when I got there, the gym leader Burgh, was out. I was just about to tear the whole gym down in anger, when a chick that knew Burgh showed up. I told her about Plasma and she said that the most likely place they were hiding was the sewers. Obviously, I was not thrilled to hear that. Hugh catches up right as I get to the entrance and we head in together.
So Hugh and I are wading through other peoples shit when we spot those Plasma fuckers and give them a good beating before they run off. We also found Burgh who was spying on those Plasma guys. Also a weird guy hanging down there approached me and said I bring out the power in my team. Seriously? I mean I appreciate all the compliments people are giving me, but why do they have to be from weirdos who seem like they are waiting for me. Anyway, Hugh, Burgh, and weird guy all leave me alone in the sewer, so I'm left to find my way out alone. I guess it's good thing they did because I never would have found the entrance to this beautiful garden that can only be accessed by the sewer. I took this time to train up the rest of my team since 101010 has been doing most of the battles recently, and was also getting more irritated with me.
While training, Pika finally evolved into a Pikachu! She now also knows Electro Ball so now she can bring on some serious hurt. Sdoofbuc has also evolved into a Bayleef and is an even better tank than before. It isn't all good news though, I finally found out what that bad vibe ImBack gives is all about. She fainted while training, and when we got back to the Pokemon Center, I went to sell some of the stuff I found down there, AND ALMOST ALL OF MY ITEMS WERE RUINED! I had potions go the consistency of chunky milk, poke balls and great balls break in half, and pearls that suddenly got huge cracks in them. Naturally the shops wouldn't buy this crap, so I had to throw it all away. I asked ImBack what the hell was up, (I was hysterical at the moment okay?) and she just shrugged like, "I dunno, shit happens."
By this time it is about 5pm, so I figure I have enough time to challenge Burgh before it gets too late, but guess who I run into on the way there? Shady Guy! The guy who I traded my old Snivy to in exchange for my little gang of misfits. My former Snivy was with him, but Shady Guy had evolved him into a Servine. He asked how the team was doing and I told him about the adventures we've had so far and also there little quirks. He couldn't explain ImBack's weird curse but advised me to keep her healthy if I want to keep my items, and I should stay away from fire type moves as well just to be safe about it. He also had a "talk" with 101010. It was really more like he just read 101010's mind. I think he's a psychic or something. Anyway Shady Guy says that 101010 thinks I cheated at the slots to get him and I should pay for him. I asked why I have pay if he gave me the egg in the first place, but he wouldn't give me a straight answer. It isn't all bad though, after I made a sizable donation to a local charity, 101010 became very friendly with me so now we get along fine. Shady Guy also gave me an upgrade for 101010 if I agree to change his name. It was worth it as now 101010, or now I should say 100, is now a Porygon2!
Then the sun starts setting so I rush to the gym to get my badge from Burgh. It was a pretty tough battle as Hulk decided to sit this one out again. Gorgeous managed to defy all odds and defeat Burgh's Swadloon all by herself and managed to weaken his Dwebble enough for Sdoofbuc to finish it off. I knew his Leavanny would be tough though so I had Pika cripple it with Charm and Thunder Wave before letting 100 wear it down until I finally won. So now I have my third badge, and will start heading towards Nimbasa in the morning. More on that tomorrow. Later! <3
