Update 3: A Wayward Adventure

Journal:
http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Journal-Day3.png

Long Form:
Spoiler:

After traversing through Oreburgh Gate and getting Flash, plus a few other goodies, I decided to check the Old Chateau out.

I quickly found all the items scattered throughout, even with the annoying Ghastlys.

I clicked on the TV, just to see if Rotom could give me any experience, but my attack left it with one HP.

Thus, I decided I might as well catch it, and possibly use it as a Flash slave.

I exited the Old Chateau, and continued through Eterna to Route 206.

While traveling down the Cycling Road, the egg Gerdenia gave me hatched, and inside was Togepi.

I planned on using Togepi as my Flash slave, but it turns out Tortilla can learn it. =/

After teaching Tortilla Flash, I decided to traverse Wayward Cave, and I did.

A ton of pain and boredom ensued. I made it to Mira, and abused her healing again, picking up a Revive, and some TM.

I made it out safely, dispatched Mira, and decided to go get Earthquake.

I traveled trough this hellhole of a maze, picking up all the items in the way.

I made it to Earthquake, teaching it to Madamoozel, and exited Wayward Cave.

1st update

Char name is Raiko. So i picked chimchar as my starter until i got my two main pokemon. So as i got him my rival Zerro challenged me to our first battle and i lost though it was no big deal to me. Then i continued to sandgem town to see the prof. and got my pokedex. I then walked home and talked to my mom to let her know i was going out on a journey as i was leaving Zerro's mom stopped by and gave me a parcel to give to him so i said sure. I then left and headed towards route 202 to learn how to catch pokemon from Dawn then caught a few random pokemon. I then proceeded to the pokemon center and trade for 1 pokemon(holding tm13: ice beam) and two eggs. i then released the pokemon that game me the tm. I then proceeded to hatch my eggs, getting a Male Charmander(Naughty) named it Chakra and a Male Dratini(Naive) named it Drake after they hatched i proceeded to teach Dratini Ice beam, trained them to lvl 5 and is now proceeding to Jubilife city!

Update 4: Home is Where the Heart is - Route 206, Route 208, Hearthome, Route 209, Solaceon Town

Long Form:
Spoiler:
Finished going through Route 206, defeating all the trainers along the way. Saw the Professor's assistant, and she gave me the Vs. Seeker and the Dowsing Mashine app for the Poketch. I traveled through Mount Coronet, bumping into Cyrus along the way. Arrived in Route 208, and stomped all the trainers there. I got the Odd Keystone from an odd man in the bottom of the route. I made it into Hearthome City, and did the regular city stuff. Received an Eevee from Bebe.
http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Eevee.png
Fantina's gym was now open, so I went in, whooped her and her lackeys, and got out.
http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/FantinaDefeated.png
I was headed to Route 209, when Max decided to battle me. I completely demolished his team.
http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Maxdown.png
I then proceeded to Route 209, and mopped the floor with the trainers there. I went into the Lost Tower, and defeated the trainers only to find I needed Defog to get Strength. I went back out and caught a Staravia for a Fly/Defog slave. Checked around Solaceon Town and got all the useful items. Max came charging in saying Defog was in the Ruins, so I went there next. I gathered up all the items, including Defog. taught Defog to WEAKbird.
http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/FlySlave.png
I went back into Lost Tower and used Defog, just to find out I don't get Strength, just two tags.

Silver enseron March 5th, 2010 10:01 AM

2nd update

I arrive at Jubilife and meet up with a few people like the profs assistant and a man named looker. I then head east to Oreburgh city to face the first gym leader, as i head through the cave to the city a man stops me and gives me an hm which contained rock smash and taught it to Chimchar. I arrived in town to find out he is in the mine so i head there to get him so i can challenge him. Before i face off with him i Exp grinded till i had a lvl 16 Charmeleon and a lvl 12 Dratini i then walked into the gym and fought my way to the gym leader and defeated him. I then head back to jubilife because there is no way to access route 207 from the city.

As i head to jubilife and up to route 204 when i run into the prof and his assistant being hassled by good old team galatic. So i decide to help them and wipe the the floor with them. I then head north beating every trainer i see and make it to Floaroma town heal up and head over to the wind works where this little girl stops me on the way and tells me her dad is in trouble i rush over to see a galactic grunt in front of the door. I defeat him and he runs inside and locks the door, i head back into town and head to the flower garden and defeat the two grunts there. They then drop a key and i head into the wind works and defeat mars. After defeating mars and head north to Eterna and head through the forest. After arriving at the end i decide after seeing the statue i would lvl grind my pokemon each to lvl 25 before facing off with gardenia. After a while of grinding i finally reach my goal and go face off against gardenia and win. I then exit and head for the galactic warehouse to get everyones pokemon back.

Update 5: Galactic Problems in Veilstone - Route 210, Route 215, Veilstone City

Journal:
http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Journal-Day4.png

Long Form:
Spoiler:
I started today at Solaceon Town, and continued up to Route 210. I fought through all the trainers and picked up all the items. I made it into the cafe, cleared it of trainers, and bought 30 Moomoo Milks. Pushed on to Route 215 and defeated a couple trainers. I caught a Swinub, who I nicknamed Schwein.

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Swinub.png
I gave Schwein my Exp. Share. Continued along Route 210 and came across TM 34 Shock Wave. I looked through my TMs, and taught Schwein Rock Tomb.

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/RockTomb.png
I pushed through the remaining trainers, and arrived in Veilstone City. I did the regular city stuff, picking up a Sticky Barb and equipping it to Madamoozel. I went to battle Maylene, and Crasher Wake sang me a weird song. o.O I made it into Maylene's gym, and after fighting a few trainers, removed the Sticky Barb from Madamoozel seeing as nobody could touch me. :P I replaced it with the Amulet Coin. Got through the hellish maze and defeated all the trainers. Madamoozel and her HP Flying made short work of Maylene.

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/MayleneDefeated.png
After exiting the gym, Professor Rowan's assistant told me she lost her Pokedex, and she needed me to get it back. We battled a couple Galactic Grunts and get her Pokedex back, when the Looker came running to our "aide". We went inside the storage building and found Fly. I taught it to WEAKbird.

Update 6: Wake's Crushing Defeat - Route 214, Valor Lakefront, Route 213, Pastoria City

Journal:
http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Journal-Day4-2.png

Long Form:
Spoiler:
After finishing with the Looker, I went to the game corner and spent all my money on coins. I plan to buy Ice Beam when I have enough coins(10,000, so far I have 2,500 T.T). From Veilstone I headed south to Route 214. I traveled through it a ways, training up my Schwein, and it learned Ice Shard. I searched the Maniac's Cave and found dig. I taught it to Schwein, accidentally replacing Rock Tomb. :P

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Dig.png
Finally defeating all the trainers on Route 214, I arrived at Route 213. I got the White Flute from the lady who dropped her Suite Key, and defeated all the trainers in the Cafe. After healing at the Inn, I traversed the rest of Route 213. I then arrived in Pastoria City, and did all the normal city stuff. When I went to battle the gym leader, Max came running up and challenged me to a battle. I completely decimated his team.

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/MaxDown-Round2.png
After beating him, he told me some nonsense about being Wake's apprentice and having his own theme song. I entered Wake's gym, and defeated most of his trainers relatively easy. After beating a few of them, Schwein evolved.

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Piloswine.png
As soon as Schwein evolved, I went to the move tutor's house and taught him Ancientpower, using one of the Heart Scales I got earlier.

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/Ancientpower.png
I used the second one to teach it Ice Fang.

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/IceFang.png
I then went back into the gym and finished off the last of the trainers. Then I went on to battle Wake, and his Gyarados gave me some trouble, but the other two fell fairly easily.

http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh290/Blazikendude/Screens/Platinum%20Duo%20Challenge/WakeDefeated.png
When I exited the gym, Max ran up again rattling on about how awesome Wake is and other nonsensical things. Wake came out and told Max he never took him on as an apprentice, and told me I was awesome. Max said some Galactic Grunt said something about a bomb, and Wake freaked out and ran to beat him up and whatnot, and Max chased after...

Yes, egg moves are allowed. Also, sorry for not posting an update in a while. Things are busier this week now that the school schedule is back to normal, so I'm not getting as much time to play. But my next update would have just been about training anyway. I got through the ghost tower place and got Strength and I'm headed to Veilstone for badge #3.

You have to pick two Pokemon from the same generation. Gligar and Crobat would be elligible(as long as nobody else has taken them). Same with Toxicroak and Drapion.
