    I wonder if you watched Marriland's Super Mystery Dungeon Let's Play yet? He's playing as Bloom the Chikorita (Chikorita was the starter his personality test results gave him, but in this game you can still choose any of them) and his partner is Mischief the Riolu.

    So my comment on your latest Black 2 update...

    Nice to see you get Dewgong, and naming her Iceland was pretty appropriate as well. Now that leaves Sweden as the only Nordic country you haven't used yet, hopefully you plan using that one on another upcoming capture. Slovakia having a close call against a Heracross though, kinda odd when you consider she resists both of its STABs there.

    And I think you made the right decision not to catch that Mantyke, because not only is its catch rate so annoying but you also missed your only shot for Remoraid so it was not worth it since even if you did catch it, you wouldn't be able to use it to its full potential.

    The fact he now has Lotta the Stoutland as his team leader reminds me of Tramp from your Black Personalocke, since he had been leader for nearly the rest of the game when you lost Pumbaa.

    Yeah, i'm just as amazed by it as anybody else. He had the Air Balloon and Fire Punch on Electabuzz, which barricaded Clay's Bulldoze, and Rock Slide missed, and the Sitrus Berry kept him above the red. You can't make this stuff up. B) Although he may have been able to save Sebastian had he used Lotta the Stoutland, because Dig, although he said himself he wasn't sure how well that would have turned out.

    It's so shocking that an Electric-type managed to avenge a fallen starter teammate in a Ground-type Gym of all things.

    So I don't know if a certain name on Marriland named Taprus has caught your eye, you've probably seen him several times throughout my Platinum and Black (2) threads. In case you have...
    Spoiler:
    He just lost his starter, Sebastian the Servine, against Clay's Excadrill, after it had been slowed down by Bulldoze and had its defense lowered by his Sandslash. That's made the second Gym in a row that he's lost someone. But at least Axel the Electabuzz proved to rock out loud in that fight!

    Whoa, I actually didn't catch that until you pointed it out. But since they said the clubs will be merged, I guess there's something in it for the members.

    I find it coincidental you bumped the 5th Gen club just as it was announced the Club forums are getting merged into other sections. I hope you still plan to post in the 5th Gen section so you can continue showing love towards Unova.

    Well the "close call" with that Arcanine actually wasn't anything too bad - it did exactly a quarter of Australia's health on the dot. I only mentioned that because the trainer with that Arcanine also had an Excadrill, so had that been faster it would've done over half with Earthquake. And yes, Pelipper has a catch rate of 45 but to not shake once in either a Net Ball or Ultra Ball... I remember when I caught one in my Wedlocke after it broke free from every Net Ball I had but then was caught with a Timer Ball. For my second Giant Chasm encounter, i'm probably going to go for the Crater Forest because I cannot bear to look at that darn pelican again (and I have Metang/Ditto clause, so I can skip those if I find them). I'm praying to god for a Clefairy when I get that encounter.

    And I do really like Mamoswine, and since Russia is a cold place I went with that name for it. Too bad it doesn't exactly fit on my team at the moment with so many weaknesses.

    So nice to see you get a Piloswine... but I knew it was likely given how common they are. And nice name you gave him, I was hoping you'd name something Russia.

    Anyways, Australia having a close call against that Arcanine... and missing out on a Pelipper just like Marriland. Seriously, what is up with those stupid birds and their near-legendary level catch rates?

    Said Lucario and Sunflora died to a Sigilyph... oh crap. I always hear loads of Nuzlockers and their bad experiences with fighting those things.

    As for what Bulba has boxed, I suggest the new pair be Skorupi and Golduck. The former has only one weakness when it evolves into Drapion, and her high Defense can help against the Pokemon that mainly use physical moves (that is everything except Lapras and Hydreigon) and Golduck can use Ice Beam (and also Water moves on Aggron and Archeops) for super-effective damage, and its stats are not that bad so you know, it might work.

    Yeah, I'd rather not say much about the battle just yet. I'll leave you to wait until I post it for more.

    Spoiler:
    Also, in case you haven't seen BulbaJohn's newest part of his Black 2 Wedlocke, he just lost his Sunflora and Lucario to a Veteran in Victory Road. As much as part of me wants to think "good ****ing riddance", that would not exactly be mature, especially since those two were on his team since the beginning. He's not really sure who he wants to use in their place, considering most of the Pokémon in his box are ones he already has the types of.

    On a different, completely un-Locke related note, I've managed to score some of Marriland's Buizel on his Wonder Trade streams, and even got two of them last Wednesday. And I'm trying for a shiny Hawlucha currently, to give me something to do. Sadly, it's been over 700 eggs so far and no success. I do miss the times when the likes of me, Blade, Necrum, CC and co would hang out in the Trade Corner chat…

    Wow Slovakia had a close call... she was in the red when you posted that end-of-battle screenshot.

    So, you may or may not have seen on Twitter yet, but I just beat Marlon. It was a scary fight, but a very interesting one at the same time. To say the least...well, he got a little unlucky. :P I probably won't have that battle up for two weeks or so, though, I still have to write the story for the part with frozen Opelucid City, which I hope to post tomorrow.

    As for Marlon, Singapore will definitely be good against him (even if she doesn't have Water Absorb) since all his Challenge Mode team except Mantyke is weak to Grass. But Slovakia with Thunder Punch will at least back her up when that time comes.
