-Met Cedric Juniper.
-Was thanked by Hugh and his sister for saving her Purrloin-er, Liepard.
-Got the Ground-type Champ Medal.
-Went to Alder's house in Floccesy Town and challenged him!
This was actually my second try, because first time I sent in Gharial against Volcarona and forgot that I got rid of Rock Slide for Outrage, then Volcarona used Quiver Dance and swept the half of my team that was remaining.
Pokémon Trainer Alder overview:
Team entering the fight: VampirMoth LV58 / Expert Belt - Dragon Claw, Earth Power, Fly, Rock Slide
Top Hat LV57 / Light Clay - Earth Power, Light Screen, Psychic, Reflect
Siberia LV57 / Soft Sand - Earthquake, Ice Fang, Superpower, Thrash
Mecoptera LV60 - Acrobatics, Bulldoze, Swords Dance, Thunder Fang
Megatron LV58 / Lax Incense - Drain Punch, Earthquake, Ice Punch, Shadow Punch
Gharial LV60 / BlackGlasses - Crunch, Earthquake, Low Kick, Outrage
He starts off with Accelgor while I open with VampirMoth. He uses Bug Buzz, which does less than half, while I use Fly. I avoid a Bug Buzz then kill him. Me: 102/174 HP.
Next up is Bouffalant. I send in Megatron, and he uses Head Charge, which fails against me. He uses Earthquake, which does less than half, while I hit with Drain Punch for slightly less than half. Him: 52% or so HP, Me: 162/182 HP after recovery. He uses Earthquake again, while I use Drain Punch and kill him. Me: 150/182 HP. VampirMoth grows to Level 59 after that.
Following is Conkeldurr. I start with Earthquake, which doesn't do too much, while he uses it too. Him: 62% or so HP, Me: 71/182 HP. I send in Top Hat, and he uses Earthquake, which fails because of Levitate. I set up Light Screen to get ready for Volcarona, as he uses Stone Edge and misses. I then go for Psychic, which doesn't quite kill him, and he uses Poison Jab. Him: 10% or so HP, Me: 123/151 HP. He uses his Full Restore, and I hit with Psychic for more than half before using it again next turn and killing him.
Next up is Escavalier. Ugh, really wish I had Rainier right about now. Anyway, I send in Gharial as death fodder as he uses X-Scissor, which kills me in one hit. I send in Megatron and use Earthquake, which does less than half before he kills me with Iron Head. Him: 54% or so HP. I send in Mecoptera and use Acrobatics, which doesn't quite get the job done, and he uses Iron Head again and gets a critical hit. Him: 12% or so HP, Me: 50/172 HP. I kill him next turn with another Acrobatics. And Light Screen wears off.
Afterward is Volcarona. Yeah, great timing for that to happen! He uses Psychic and finishes me off. I send in VampirMoth again, and use Rock Slide, which kills him in one hit.
Finally is his Braviary. I use Rock Slide and miss, while he uses Superpower and nearly kills me. Him: Full health and -1 Attack and Defense, Me: 19/177 HP. I use Dragon Claw, which does half, before he kills me with Crush Claw. I send in Siberia, and he uses Rock Slide, but it barely does anything, and I kill him with Ice Fang, ending the battle.
That was a good fight. Everyone got some decent usage except Gharial, and I think it was challenging enough. It required some decent strategy, so i'm glad things worked out well.

N overview:
His only Pokémon was Reshiram. I began with Top Hat, and he used Fusion Flare for over half my health, but I lived and set up Light Screen before he killed me. Then I brought in Megatron, who took less than half from Fusion Flare and almost OHKOed him with Earthquake. He then used his Full Restore, but I then killed him in one hit with a critical hit, which got Megatron to Level 68.
-Got the Light Stone from N.
-Beat the trainers on Routes 1 and 18.
-Went to the Plasma Frigate and found Colress!
Pokémon Trainer Colress overview:
Team entering the fight: VampirMoth LV67 / Lax Incense - Dragon Claw, Earth Power, Fly, Rock Slide
Top Hat LV68 / Light Clay - Earth Power, Light Screen, Psychic, Reflect
Siberia LV68 / Soft Sand - Earthquake, Ice Fang, Superpower, Light Screen
Megatron LV69 / Expert Belt - Drain Punch, Earthquake, Ice Punch, Shadow Punch
Gharial LV68 / Amulet Coin - Crunch, Earthquake, Low Kick, Outrage
Boombeat LV68 / Mystic Water - Surf, Earthquake, Hydro Pump, Strength
He starts off with Magneton while I open with VampirMoth. I use Rock Slide, which does pathetic damage but causes him to flinch, which I only did because of Sturdy. Him: 95% or so HP. I then use Earth Power and kill him in one hit. VampirMoth grows to Level 68 after that.
Next up is Magnezone. This time I start with Earth Power to get rid of his Full Restore, then he lives with Sturdy and uses Flash Cannon to hit hard. Him: 1 HP, Me: 75/205 HP. He uses his Full Restore, then I use Earth Power again before finishing him with Dragon Claw.
After that is Klinklang. I use Rock Slide, which pops his balloon, and luckily flinches him again. I then go for Earth Power, which knocks him low, but he kills me with Giga Impact. Him: 30% or so HP. I then send in Siberia and kill him with Earthquake.
Following is Rotom, ugh. He's faster and kills me in one hit with Hydro Pump, but loses some of his HP because of Life Orb. Him: 90% or so HP. I send in Top Hat, but the exact same thing happens. Him: 80% or so HP. I bring in Boombeat, and he burns me with Will-o-Wisp before I use Strength, which does pathetic damage. Him: 3/4 HP, Me: 205/234 HP and burned. He uses Hydro Pump, which nearly kills me, but I BARELY live and do some alright damage with Hydro Pump before succumbing to burn. Him: 37% or so HP. I send in Gharial and use Crunch, which finally finishes Rotom. Whew! I also get the boost from Moxie.
Next up is Beheeyem, who dies in one hit to Crunch, and I get another Moxie boost. Gharial grows to Level 69 after that.
Finally is Metagross, who also dies in one hit to Earthquake, ending the battle.
That Rotom was pretty scary, so i'm glad I was able to get it weakened enough to allow Gharial to finish the job. I do wish I had let Megatron fight in there somewhere, though.
-Obtained another Master Ball from Colress.
-Went through Clay Tunnel and battled some of the trainers there to gain some EXP.

Next up is his ace, Snorlax. I send in Megatron as he uses…Crunch?! Are you serious?! Guess he actually got clever. Me: 86/222 HP. I use Drain Punch, which…gets a critical hit and kills him in one hit AND heals me to full. Muhaha.
Following is Wigglytuff. I use Drain Punch again, which does over half, as he uses…Thunderbolt? You've gotta be kidding me. I kill him with another Drain Punch, then Light Screen wears off.
Lastly is Alomomola. He's faster and uses Toxic, while I hit him with Earthquake. Him: 3/4 or so HP, Me: 209/222 HP and badly poisoned. I send in Siberia as he fails with Protect, then kills me with Aqua Jet. Him: 15/16 or so HP. So I send in VampirMoth, and he uses Aqua Jet again before I hit him with Earth Power. Him: 64% or so HP, Me: 170/213 HP. I use Earth Power again, then he hits with Toxic. Him: 40% or so HP, Me: 157/213 HP and badly poisoned. I switch out for Megatron and he fails with Protect.

I bring in Boombeat, and he's faster and hits with Toxic before I use Earthquake. Him: 60% or so HP, Me: 229/244 HP. Then he uses Aqua Jet before taking another Earthquake. Him: 40% or so HP, Me: 163/244 HP. He then uses Protect like a noob. Him: 47% or so HP, Me: 118/244 HP. Then he uses Aqua Jet, while I hit with another Earthquake. Him: 1/3 or so HP, Me: 24/244 HP. He then uses Protect, and I die from poison damage. Him: 40% or so HP. I only have VampirMoth left, so I send her in. He uses Aqua Jet before I hit with Earth Power, but he barely holds on. Him: 1/8 or so HP, Me: 105/213 HP. He then uses Protect. Him: 1/5 HP, Me: 79/244 HP. He uses Protect and fails, and I kill him with Earth Power, ending the battle.
That was...weird, I don't know what the heck happened. You are stupid, Alomomola! That was going well until Alomomola came out with its stupid Toxic and Protect and i'm just glad I won, goodness.
-Challenged his associate, Morimoto.
Game Freak Morioto overview:
Team entering the fight: Same as before, except Gharial has the BlackGlasses and Megatron has the Expert Belt. All others remain unchanged.
He starts off with Liepard while I open with Gharial. He uses Fake Out. Me: 201/240 HP. He uses Grass Knot and does over half, while I use Earthquake, and he barely lives. Him: 2% or so HP, Me: 71/240 HP. I use Earthquake again and knock him right near that point. He then uses…Sucker Punch? Even though he's clearly faster and could have killed me with Grass Knot again. Anyway, I kill him with another Low Kick and gain Moxie boost. Me: 17/240 HP and +1 Attack.
Next up is Simipour. I'm faster this time and use Earthquake, which knocks him low, but his Petaya Berry activates before he kills me with Crunch. Him: 4% HP and +1 Sp Atk. I bring in VampirMoth and kill him with Dragon Claw.
After that is Zebstrika. He uses Pursuit, while I hit with Earth Power. Him: 28% or so HP, Me: 175/214 HP. I switch in Megatron - good timing, because he uses Giga Impact, which i'm immune to. He uses Pursuit before I kill him with Shadow Punch. Me: 151/223 HP.
Following is Simisear. He uses Crunch (at least he's being smart) and I barely live, then I kill him in one hit with Earthquake. Megatron grows to Level 72 after that. Me: 24/226 HP.
Next in line is Simisage, who kills me with Energy Ball. I bring in Top Hat, hoping to survive a hit and use Light Screen, but he kills me in one hit with Energy Ball with a critical hit. So I bring in VampirMoth and use Dragon Claw, which knocks him to half and activates his Petaya Berry, then he only uses Payback. Him: 48% or so HP, Me: 103/214 HP. I then use Fly, avoid another Energy Ball and kill him. VampirMoth grows to Level 72 after that.
Lastly is his Swoobat. He uses Psychic, and I miss with Rock Slide, then he kills me with Psyshock. I bring in Siberia, and he uses Psychic, but I live with just over half and kill him in one hit with Ice Fang, ending the battle. Siberia grows to Level 72 after that.
