Notable Events:
Due to me messing up the end of the previous segment, I need to bench my entire team for the 3rd time in a row.
It'll take a while for me to get rid of this annoying rule...
At least I can now buy Light Screen and Reflect TMs so no need to head back to the desert and catch another Sigilyph.
First I head to the bridge to catch the most crucial member of my new team: Ducklett. Not only can it have Big Pecks as an ability, but its also a Water type which helps with the next gym.
Though I need to beat Cheren first, with whatever remained from my previous teamand the new 3 turns rule, it wasn't an easy battle.
Upon arriving to Drifveil City, I head to the nearby Route 6 and also check out the Cold Storage for any high levelled pokemon worth catching.
I extend my repertoir with a Swadloon, a Herdier and a Vanillite.
Though I obtained an Ice type, my hype for potentially gettibg rid of rule 2 quickly dies down, because it does not get Snow Warning in gen 5 and only learns Hail on level 40.
I beat Team Plasma and every trainer in the area but my team is still only level 27.
Having learned from my mistakes, I train them up to 30 to make sure they can sweep the gym easily and Ducklett meets the offer requirement.
Gym Battle:
Leading with Ducklett I easily oneshot Clay's Krookodile.
Excadrill is coming up next, for which my best matchup is actually Herdier, because it has Rock Smash. I also gave it an Eviolite to be able to take 3 hits.
Finishing with Palpitoad, the one I'm least worried about, its time to send out Vanillite and set up Light Screen on turn 1 for no apparent reason.
I switch to Swadloon on turn 2 and oneshot it with a Razor Leaf on turn 3.
Sacrifices:
Ducklett (level 31 and can have Big Pecks) to get rid of Crystalline.
Herdier and Swadloon just because I can.
