Strider's Silver Water-Type Update 3: (Azalea Town - Goldenrod City)
Balancing this and my Leaf Green Let's Play is fun.
Starting off, I pick up the Fast Ball from Kurt for no real reason. I don't like using special pokéballs anyway, I feel regular Ultra Balls work fine.
So here's Ilex Forest. This dungeon is really boring and the Farfetch'd section can be done in no time if you know how to do it, so I didn't take that many screenshots of it.
So I get the Cut HM, but here's the problem: Nobody can learn it (except for tidus but why would i do that).
So then I get a Ratatta. Problem solved, right? Wrong, Ratatta can't learn Cut until the next generation, so I have to backtrack all the way through Union Cave to get a Bellsprout instead.
I pick up the TM for Headbutt, I might use it sometime later. That's pretty much it for Ilex Forest. On the next route I had the idea to let Tifa fight on her own so she'd level up quicker.
Eventually this happened, so instead of going all the way back through Ilex Forest I just go to the daycare and use Bill's box system for free healing, as if we didn't need enough healing points in the game.
This guy fights you if it's nighttime, but it's not so I can't. Shame too, that would mean a bit less grinding.
Yes, Tifa took out this Psyduck all on her own. These trainers are all terrible. Anyway, Goldenrod City!
I don't even know why you'd want Bill's number but I pick it up anyway. Regardless, we have the bicycle now \o/
Then I go fight everyone in the Underground.
Having Zidane is a godsend, let me tell you.
After that, it's gym time!
Poor Zidane took a beating in here. I fight all the gym trainers and then decide to grind up my pokémon for two reasons: First, because Whitney can go die in a fire, and second...
So Tifa and Zidane can evolve. Finally, now I won't have to deal with a useless Magikarp!
So, Whitney. This is gonna be hard, right?
Nope, her Miltank gets annihilated by Zidane. It didn't even get to use Milk Drink once.
13 badges to go! Also the Attract TM, meh.
Next time, we learn about this game's legendary trio? I don't actually know how Gold and Silver go about it.
