Started with Bulbasaur, named BFF (So Rival would get Charmander)
Then I went straight to Viridian Forest and Caught my first two Pokémon:
Valor, the Caterpie
Naga, the Weedle
Released BFF (Byebye)
Since these two are the only guys I'll have until Brock I decided to grind them to lv7 before I tackle the forest.
My babies are growing up!
Then I fought and beat Green. My word it was hard, my bugs struggled against Pidgey and Charmander, eventually managing to stall both out with Harden and Poison Sting tactics.
The Forest was a LONG haul. Every battle taking ages. Poison Stings and riveting combat ensues.
But we made progress!
Eventually made it through, both my babies making it to their final forms!
I feel confident and ready for Brock! Lets go rock man!
... so... Onix knew Rock Tomb.
Second try, it was a hard fight involving Poisonpowder sacrifice (<3 YOU VALOR) and many hardens and Potions, but we did it!
Skip ahead a bunch of boring Trainer battles, and we made it to Mt.Moon. Here, I knew I could get my final team member for the next few badges. Found one fast!
Welcome, Boon!
Trekked through the Mountain, and have made it to Cerulean City. Ready to take on Green!
