    Call me lame, but I was a few Gyms in before I noticed that he gave out a Fresh Water, because I'm pretty sure I didn't bother talking to him every time. I was always stalked up on various Potions anyway, though.

    The problem with Clyde giving you Fresh Water is that about 6 Gyms into the game they are almost worthless unless you have pokemon with a bad HP stat. I support the idea of getting free recovery items, although they need to be different for each gym.

    I thought it was pretty neat. I always just take a trip back to the pokemon center if I have to though. I very rarely use items tbh.

    I agree sorta, sorta-notta
    i think if it was like:
    fresh water = 50HP
    soda pop = 100HP
    & lemonade = 150HP
    and you got: FW 1st-3rd gym
    SP 4-6thgym & LA
    7&8th gym then itd be perfect
    but either way i liked it, at first i thought he only did it in gym 1&2 cuz thats the only time he ever came to me and gave it to me, but afterwards i figured out its in every gym (i hardly ever talked to the helper guy -clyde- after gen3)

    The first time i saw him in the earlier games i thought he was some kind of pedophile you would get to a gym and he would be like "hey *INSERT TRAINER NAME HERE* hows your journey" and i would be like " 0.0 Htf do you know my name? " but now hes my BFF i like to call him uncle Clide i named my first heirder after him!

    I love the Fresh Water Guy. They came in handy and as I said in another thread, I had no idea Fighting, Steel and Rock were super effective against Ice types until the Water Guy at the seventh gym told me @.@
