Hell, everyone~ I've finally cleared Pokemon Y~ I kinda forgot to keep up with my journal entries, though. :p Have to say that X and Y are definitely the most enjoyable games I've played so far. Anyway, on to the update!
Since my last update was after the fourth Gym, there's simply too much info to post, so I'll skip to the important stuff then my battles in the Pokemon League.
Lumious City Gym -
Had no real strategy, as my team has no Ground-type Pokemon or moves. Was pretty much cake, though.
Laverre City Gym -
Easily my most favorite Gym and Gym Leader. I had/have no Poison-type Pokemon or moves, and Ami hadn't learned Iron Head until much later, but this Gym was relatively easy.
Anistar City Gym -
Basically a Yayoi/Meowstic sweep. Olympia stood no chance~
Snowbelle City Gym -
A Yayoi and Ami sweep. Amy had Iron Head at this point so.. yeah. Avalugg got wrecked in the face~
Lack of information much, I know. But, oh well. xD Can't exactly remember how those battles went.

-Wikstrom-
Started off with the Ironwork Chamber. ...Probopass. All. My. Hate. Anyway, I struggled a bit at the start of this battle, and managed to left Klefki setup a layer of Spikes. Promptly took it out with Delphox's Flamethrower. Then this damn Probopass comes in. I swear to all mighty Mawile, I HATE Probopass. I started by having Meowstic Thunderbolt it, hoping for the paralysis that never came. I found that Meowstic could tank Flash Cannon, but Power Gem did more damage. Of course, it didn't matter. A single crit dropped Meowstic. I went in to Florges to tank and deal damage with Magical Leaf, only to crit Probopass out of the battle. Scizor was next, Delphox took it out in one hit with Flamethrower. Aegislash tried to King's Shield me and failed, one Flamethrower and it was out.
-Drasna-
Took on the Dragon Chamber next. Started the battle off with Florges, expecting to sweep. Out came Dragalge. Fearing a Poison move, I still went for a Moonblast, and lowered Dragalge's Sp. Atk right off the bat. Switched out, predicting another Sludge Bomb and blocked it with Ami. Took it down the next turn. Elisa swept Altaria, Druddigon, and Noivern like they were nothing.
-Siebold-
Was planning an Elisa Calm Mind+Magical Leaf sweep. Didn't happen. Clawitzer's Water Pulse was tanked until that damn crit happened. Switched out to Florges for dat tank+damage with Magical Leaf. Barbaracle was next. Elisa came back for a revenge kill and one shot with Magical Leaf. Gyarados got one-shot by Meowstic's Thunderbolt. Starmie got two-shot by Elisa's Magical Leaf followed by Calm Mind+Magical Leaf.
-Malva-
Had only two strategies for this battle. #1) Set up a Swords Dance with Yayoi and sweep errythang. #2) Set up two or three Calm Minds with Delphox and sweep errythang. Plan #1 failed right off the bat due to Yayoi getting crit'd. Delphox came in, set up three Calm Minds (but lost 1 stage of Sp. Atk due to Noble Roar), and Psychic'd Pyroar, Torkoal, and Chandelure into oblivion. Talonflame two-shot Delphox with two Brave Birds. At this point, I had no choice but to let Talonflame knock out my Pokemon so it could take recoil damage. I brought back Yayoi for dat revenge Sucker Punch and took Talonflame out after it had lost half it's HP.
-Champion Diantha-
Started this battle off with Yayoi. No idea why. Led off with Psycho Cut, dropped Hawlucha's HP into the red forcing Diantha to heal next turn. Took that chance to Psycho Cut again. One-shot. Tyrantrum was next, and I believe I let Elisa Dazzling Gleam it. Aurorus was next, and I let Ami handle it. Started off with Power-Up Punch just for a small attack boost, and Aurorus used Reflect. Didn't help. Iron Head to the chest took it out. Gougeist was a bit of a pain. Reflect kept me from two-shotting it, and it knew Phantom Force (which I learned was a two-turn move). After seeing Ami lost nearly half her HP from one of those, I had to set up an Iron Defense then heal. Reflect eventually wore off, and I took Gougeist out with an Iron Head. I switched out for Goodra, letting Florges two-shot it with Moonblast. Then came Mega Gardevoir. Iron Head. One-shot. i lul'd.
All in all, the E4 and Champion weren't as easy as people were making them out to be for me. Then again, my team consisted of 1 Dark, 1 Fire, 3 Fairies, 3 Psychics, and 1 Steel. But, even with that, I had coverage for Water, Flying, Dark, Fairy, Rock, Ground, Ghost, Psychic, Fighting, Bug, Grass, Ice, Steel, Normal, and Dragon. Good stuff, though. Good stuff.
