SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK!!!
-Battled the grunts in the rocket place.
-Teamed up with whats-his-face and beat up the Max and his goony.
-Explored the water world of Hoenn.
(which might I add, is incredibly large u_u)
-Explored the underwater world a bit, too.
-Went to the place where the submarine was abandoned.
-Battled the grunts in there, too.
-And the leader.
-Headed to Sootopolis.
-Did that plot thing, went to the tower, returned to Sootopolis.
-Finished that plot.
(finally)
-Took on Juan. It was a bit of a challenge, fighting all those water Pokemon... but with a few revives and a lot of potions, I managed a win.
-Continued surfing a bit, arrived in Pacifidilog. (sp?)
-Surfed the currents for a bit, training.
(as I trained, I focused mainly on Blaziken and Camerupt, since Ninetales kind of... failed me... in the league the past two times.)
-Surfed toward the Pokemon league, arrived at Victory Road.
-Trained my way through Victory road.
-Arrived at the Pokemon League.
-Stocked up on Potions, Revives and Full Heals.
-Pulled all my X's out of the PC. (X Attack, X Defend, etc.)
-Entered the Elite Four.
-Sidney was a very easy win. Using only Blaziken, I literally one hit all of his Pokemon. It was almost embarrassing.
-Pheobe wasn't much of a challenge, either. None of her Pokemon gave me any problem. I only had to revive once. I used Blaziken through all of this one, too.
-Most of Glacia's Pokemon were easy to one hit. The only one that gave me a problem was Walrein. His Surf was a bit of a pain. But using an X Attack, I managed to pull a win.
-Drake... Drake, I expected to be harder than he was. But I actually took all of his Pokemon down in less than four hits. Granted, I used a TON of X Attacks and Defenses and some Dire Hits. Which, I suppose helped a lot. He was still much easier than I anticipated, though.
-Then there was the champion. He was my only problem. Using my X items, I managed to get past all of his Pokemon but... Gyarados. Gyarados was my only problem. I literally went through thirty revives waiting for him to run out of PP for Surf and Earthquake. When he finally did, I kept Camerupt healed as much as I could and used Rock Slide until he fainted. That Gyarados was a pain in my rear. But I had planned for reviving that often knowing that the champion would be a Water Type Trainer. It's like that goat on Hoodwinked said...
I WAS PREPARED!!
-I AM NOW THE CHAMPION OF HOENN, TOO!!
So, it's 6 o'clock in the morning and here I am, just finishing my run on Emerald. I promised myself I'd finish Hoenn tonight and by gosh, I managed to. I don't
hate Hoenn... it's just not my favorite, so the run through was kind of... tedious. So, I'm glad it's over AND I feel accomplished getting through it. Ninetales didn't get his chance to shine in the Pokemon League and I kind of regret that, but I used the two I knew would benefit me the most. Camerupt isn't a bad Pokemon, either. He has a pretty decent move pool and is, overall, one of the better fire types available from the Hoenn region. Neither he nor Blaziken were power houses compared to Typhlosion and Charizard, but in the end, they didn't disappoint. I kept them really high level through grinding and that paid off in the league. I'm glad to be the champion.
