Where are you in the game now?
 
As the title says, where are you in the game currently?

Louise90 November 19th, 2021 4:48 AM

I am shiny hunting the stater Pokémon

Sheep November 19th, 2021 5:55 AM

Just went through Cycling Road, battling the mass of trainers now ahhh

Caite-chan November 19th, 2021 6:58 AM

When I first saw this thread I really wanted to respond with: At Game Stop standing in line waiting to get my game. LOL!

Now that I have it though I just made it past my first badge.

.hack November 19th, 2021 12:19 PM

I just got my first badge too, gonna play a bit again tonight but not exactly blazing through the game haha feel like I'm behind everyone else I've seen playing it on socials lol, gonna take my time and enjoy it tho because there will probably be a day soon when I play for several hours straight and steam roll most of the game!

ZeoStar November 19th, 2021 12:50 PM

I finished the first gym.

This is relatively quick for me. I like stopping and speaking with the NPC's.

Ninetales November 19th, 2021 3:40 PM

Haven’t quite reached Oreburgh City yet!! I just made it through Jubilife, attended the trainers school, received my Poketch, did a little bit of training, and I’m now about to face off against my rival!!

mikey November 19th, 2021 3:58 PM

Just got to Hearthome!

Hermione Granger November 19th, 2021 4:24 PM

Made it to Floaroma Town and got my Jirachi.

Sheep November 20th, 2021 9:18 AM

Got to Solaceon, then backtracked a few times to revive fossils and catch certain things. Already almost 13 hours in!

Iceshadow3317 November 20th, 2021 1:37 PM

Been playing for about 4 hours I think and I am at Eterna City. I spent like 2 hours in the Underground though, mostly finding statues. Which I ended up with like 20 or so.

I also explored all of the first section of the Underground, discovering all the pokemon areas. So basically ran across Sinnoh underground lol. I think I found like 22 Diglett points as well, whatever those are for.

Yoshi808 November 20th, 2021 5:21 PM

Just beat Cynthia. Total time on game is 19:23. Team (all in game) was Bibarel (ended at 63), Garchomp (58), Luxray (67), Staraptor (67), Infernape (67), Roselia (65; not evolved). Final fight against Cynthia’s Garchomp. Bibarel with the yawn. C’s Garchomp with sword dance, then earthquake before falling asleep. My Garchomp comes in with 2 dragon claws for the win. Lol. That was fun.

Yoshi808 November 20th, 2021 6:41 PM

That was cool. Just went to the battle tower after getting off the ferry from Snowport, talked to a guy on the right next to a lady with a Pikachu in front and got the judge function. Didn’t even have to battle!

mikey November 21st, 2021 7:46 AM

I just got to Snowpoint - doing some team rearranging and going to take on Candice!

Sami November 21st, 2021 8:23 AM

At the Elite 4, but I might need some more grinding before I take them on, I barely got past Aaron and I'm not confident I can beat Cynthia with this team just yet ;-;

spicythai November 21st, 2021 10:52 AM

Stuck in the loading cutscene because I'm trying to get the strawberry monke :'c

Fritz November 21st, 2021 11:24 AM

Just beaten the fifth Gym. My team got overlevelled from battling wild mons in the Grand Underground, and are all around Level 41-44. I've hardly even used the VS. Seeker yet.

Yoshi808 November 21st, 2021 11:30 AM

Was playing around with the Poke Radar and learning how to chain. Successfully got a modest imposter ditto (OK stats only!!!) on Route 218 so at least know that HA possible thru Poke Radar chaining. Also got Ralts and Mankey by Poke Radar.

_pheebee November 21st, 2021 11:46 AM

Byron.

I have crafted a team that plays poorly agaisnt Steel/Ground, so I'm a bit stumped right now.
I gotta grind a heck of a lot. Luckily the grand underground is good for that.

Qibli November 21st, 2021 10:42 PM

Currently, at wind valleyworks and I realize I'm up against the admins which is gonna be tricky.

Louise90 November 22nd, 2021 3:00 AM

Going to take on the elite 4 tonight after work

Hermione Granger November 22nd, 2021 2:00 PM

Just got to Celestic Town.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ November 23rd, 2021 2:10 AM

I've just beaten Gardenia in Eterna City. I'm taking my time with the game, also compulsive level grinding since I was at level 29 for her lol

mikey November 23rd, 2021 9:24 AM

Just beat Cynthia! Now to do some dex filling.


ReKoil November 23rd, 2021 3:08 PM

Finally started the game and set out on my Journey =3
Been catching everything I see adding them to my team for evolving.
Only 1 permanent party member atm (my starter), the rest will all be boxed when they evolve xD
On Route 203 atm

Sheep November 23rd, 2021 5:48 PM

At Valor Lakefront challenging all the trainers! Finally beat Maylene and now I can Fly, which is so convenient for my honey trees. :D

professor plum November 23rd, 2021 5:50 PM

I finally started playing - I just made it to Floaroma Town. taking on team galactic at the valley windworks rn!

Fritz November 25th, 2021 9:00 AM

On the way to Victory Road having just beaten Volkner. Team is around Level 58-59 right now so probably won't be too over-levelled by the time I reach Cynthia. Pretty big level spike between Volkner and the Elite 4.

ReKoil November 25th, 2021 9:47 AM

Got 2 badges and need to go through Mt Coronet.
But I went back so I could mess about in the Grand Underground.
Literally just spent an hour to catch a Pinsir, jeez what a pain @[email protected]

Raticate128 November 25th, 2021 2:18 PM

Just reached Sunnyshore. Had a couple of recent changes to the Pokemon on my team, so I figured I'd train them by visiting the areas I'd unlocked but not been through yet: Iron Island and the cave near cycling road (I have visited it to get Gible but not been through the main area and defeated all the trainers yet).

Once done, gonna train at the route West of Sunnyshore until everyone's at least level 50.

Current team (various levels due to changes, average about 50):

Bronzong (Psychic/Steel)
Garchomp (Dragon/Ground)
Luxray (Electric)
Roselia (Grass/Poison)
Gyarados (Water/Flying)
Rapidash (Fire)

Really enjoyed the game so far! Once I beat Volkner I'm gonna retrace my steps through the region and grab any items/defeat any trainers I missed before moving onto Victory Road and the E4.

Yoshi808 November 25th, 2021 6:41 PM

Currently at 309 seen and 203 caught.

Addigar November 25th, 2021 7:04 PM

Yoooo I JUST beat the Champion of the Elite Four for the 1st time on Brilliant Diamond!!!
I was actually experiencing anxiety against Cynthia!
But when I defeated her, I threw my headphones down and jumped up in the air in excitement hahaha. <3

Sheep November 26th, 2021 4:46 AM

Beat Crasher Wake thinking I'd unlock Surf, nope, forgot it's Defog. Time to press forward so I can get Surd and be able to access my last team member!!

Louise90 November 26th, 2021 5:45 AM

Beat the game going to get the shiny charm

90210 November 26th, 2021 7:52 AM

About to go to Veilstone City but I have to stop to hunt for Spiritomb for my team (dang those 32 NPCs)

Sheep November 28th, 2021 4:21 AM

Exploring routes that needed Surf to access, just got to the Ramanas Park area.. except I can't access it yet because I haven't beaten the game. Looking forward to that. \o/

Rengoku November 28th, 2021 5:39 AM

Ramanas Park and Underground digging for Mysterious Shards.
I am missing Ho-oh, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza and Mewtwo.

ReKoil November 28th, 2021 1:46 PM

The route right after Veilstone. Finally went and beat the 3rd gym lol

Edit: In the Safari Zone now =D

goatintothewild November 29th, 2021 2:26 AM

I'm staring now :3

donavannj November 29th, 2021 6:48 AM

I'm in Sunyshore looking through my TMs to see if I have any decent ground type ones to teach my team that has no actual ground types, wondering if I there's a ground-type I haven't used that I can try catching since I do have slot 6 open still on my team.

Lellyna November 29th, 2021 9:34 AM

Beat the game going to get the shiny charm on 461 so far but daily pokemon makes it hard

Yoshi808 November 29th, 2021 10:07 PM

Just got the catching charm by catching all 151 on the Sinnoh dex. On the National dex, only at 407 of 490.

PageEmp November 30th, 2021 12:11 AM

Just about to enter cycling road. Yes, the game is not my top priority to beat as of this time. Unfortunately.

Sheep November 30th, 2021 7:28 AM

Going through the snowy routes to get to Lake Acuity! Liking how the snow looks in 3D. \o/ so tempted to pick up Snover for my team but it's full lol

Caite-chan November 30th, 2021 9:06 AM

I've gotten all 8 badges now I just need to stop getting distracted by the Underground and battle the Elite 4.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ November 30th, 2021 2:10 PM

Currently in the underground level grinding for the Elite Four. The goal is somewhere around the level 78 or 79 range.

Iceshadow3317 November 30th, 2021 2:41 PM

I've started make a huge amount of progress after I caught my Elekid. I am now in Snowpoint, but about to take another break to see if I can find a Male Ralts. If I can't find within 10 or so encounters though, just gonna get any Ralts and evolve it to Gardevoir.

.,AhKeno* November 30th, 2021 5:41 PM

Just got surf in Celestic Town. Pokemon all mostly around mid lvl 30s. I been taking this slower than my first play-though where I skipped places(wayward cave, old chateau, etc.) and exploring everywhere I can.

Evily December 1st, 2021 6:03 AM

Currently, I am on Route 222, on my way to Sunnyshore City to get the 8th Gym Badge.

ReKoil December 1st, 2021 9:00 AM

In the Underground, trying to find a Magby with Magmarizer.
The grind and bad luck is real.

Ron94 December 2nd, 2021 2:59 PM

grinding BPs in the Battle Tower

Hermione Granger December 2nd, 2021 5:24 PM

Made it to Sunnyshore City, but I'm going to do some grinding before I take on the gym leader.

Sheep December 2nd, 2021 7:01 PM

Beat Candice! Finally. Now to spend several more hours in the new parts of the Underground. :')

Iceshadow3317 December 3rd, 2021 3:15 AM

I just beat Cyrus and Saturn in Veilstone, so I am off to Mount Coronet Summit, which I think I used to always get lost doing.

My team is pretty much in the final phase unless I find a Male Ralts for Gallade, which I've given up for a time... but I really need to read up on the Secret Base stuff and get it set up.

Sheep December 4th, 2021 8:47 PM

About to go explore Mount Coronet! Did some Underground digging after beating Candice yesterday and caught some new stuff.. but it's time to press on, with newly-added team member Lumierre the Lumineon. \o/

ReKoil December 5th, 2021 1:50 AM

About to go battle the fifth gym....

Yoshi808 December 5th, 2021 4:44 PM

Just received the Shiny Charm. My last Pokemon was Cresselia - what a pain. Time for a short celebration. Yeah!

Edit: one thing I did that I thought I could never do was catch every legendary in a poke ball. Lol. That was not as frustrating as I thought it would be. Only tough ones were Zapdos and Cresselia.

Edit2: error on the every legendary in a poke ball. When I went up to meet Palkia, only had something like 3 poke balls, 1 ultra ball, 2 great balls, and the master ball. Had to use the master ball in this case.

TwilightBlade December 6th, 2021 9:00 AM

I've been stuck soft resetting for my shiny box legendary for 7-8 days now. At this point, I'm thinking about fainting Palkia so I can get on with the story...!

Iceshadow3317 December 6th, 2021 2:56 PM

30 Hours and 18 Minutes and I beat the Pokemon League in one try. While I think it would have happened regardless since I had 2 Max Revives, the Cynthia battle ended up being like an anime battle.

It ended up being Empoleon vs Garchomp and Empoleon held on because of friendship 2 times in the battle, allowing me to beat her Garchomp in 2 Ice Beams. So it couldn't be more animeish than that lol

greenxtea December 6th, 2021 3:34 PM

About 23 hours in and I’m currently storming Team Galactic HQ in Vilestone. I caught a Snover up by Snowpoint and Riolu hatched from its egg not long after so I’m letting them both capitalize on all the free experience.

colours December 6th, 2021 4:12 PM

about to do two things

1) battle/catch the lake trio
2) fight the elite four + cynthia

haven't played for a few days bc im also playing with an irl friend who i'm waiting to catch up to where i'm at.

Elder Trainer December 8th, 2021 6:19 AM

Currently working on my living Dex, but the trade and version exclusive Pokemon are proving hard to come by. Without the GTS it's proving hard to find a trade partner in many cases, even in the dedicated trade rooms. I may wait until I get Brilliant Diamond to work on those- much easier that way.

Shiny December 8th, 2021 7:28 AM

I beat Candice tonight and have made my way through Mt. Coronet to face Dialga and Team Galatic on the summit!

ソラ December 9th, 2021 6:20 PM

Post game, doing Post game stuff i dont wanna spoil just in case someone hasnt played Diamond or Pearl. But enjoying all the Pokemon im collecting on post game.

Yoshi808 December 10th, 2021 7:46 AM

Current focus is getting all the new aprimons with HA. Got all of Pachirisu, Seviper, Cacnea, and Voltorb. Almost done with Illumise/Volbeat (heavy and lure remain). Got 3 of Zangoose and Glameow, and 2 of Skitty.

ReKoil December 12th, 2021 3:50 AM

Got 6 badges, so now that I can use Surf and Strength outside of battle, I went and back tracked all over the place.
Mainly just gathering items and some trainers that required surf to fight.

I should probably go help my rival at the northern lake, but I dislike him anyway so he can wait xD

Louise90 December 12th, 2021 5:56 AM

I am shiny hunting spirttomb

Yoshi808 December 12th, 2021 10:05 AM

Just completed getting all of the new HA Aprimon (Seviper, Zangoose, Cacnea, Voltorb, Skitty, Glameow, Pachirisu, Illumise/Volbeat) in all 7 of the balls. Next focus is on getting more HA mons thru the Poke Radar and growing some berries. Planted a bunch of berries several days ago and only got 6 new Roseli berries to show so far. The berries take a long time, although I’m focusing on the rare berries and not the common ones. Will try to plant some Leppa and Lum berries today.

Sothis December 12th, 2021 7:23 PM

Nearly at Veilstone.
I hear there's a clothing shop so I'm excited lol

DarkDragonMeister December 13th, 2021 8:21 PM

Back in Twinleaf Town. I just defeated the Elite Four and now I'm going to take a day or two break from the game.

Honestly Flint and Cynthia were the only ones that gave me some real trouble though.

Aaron I pretty much sweeped through with my Staraptor and Garchomp. Bertha did take out my Empeleon but my other Pokemon stalled well enough for me to revive it.

Flint's Drifblim was a pain though. But I DID find it freaking funny that right when I decided to switch out for my Staraptor to use it's Aerial Ace to deal with the Minimizing balloon he used Baton Pass and send out his Infernape. XD It went down pretty easy thanks Brave Bird. Still Drifblim managed to lower my Staraptor's ATK with Strength Sap to the point that Aerial Ace wasn't doing much, along with getting Burned eventually made me send out my Houndoom and after missing five turns in a row I managed to one shot the damn thing.

Lucian screwed himself when he used Trick Room and I ended up taking out his Alakazam with my Toxicroak with X-Scissor.

Cynthia's Milotic was a major pain and it took forever to take it out with my Clefable and it's Thunderbolt. Her Garchomp took out most of team before I brought it down with a combo of Staraptor's Final Gambit and Clefable's Moon Blast, after it barely managed to survive a critical Poison Jab.

I gotta say this was one of the best parts of the game.

Yoshi808 December 14th, 2021 8:02 AM

Currently using Vs. Seeker to continuously battle Jen and Zac, make tons of poke dollars, and buy lots and lots of Protein, Calcium and Carbos.

virtualpet December 14th, 2021 11:40 AM

Mew: we go slower than molasses when completing games so uh... 5th gym

we're enjoying it! we just can not binge games and this is how long it takes us to complete even games we like

Sheep December 17th, 2021 6:08 AM

Beat Volkner, then the game froze.

Time to (grumpily) redo the battle. :<

Yoshi808 December 18th, 2021 10:06 AM

Just finished beating Cynthia last night in BD. Also, got the National dex this morning. Will be slowly working on completing the National dex while continuing to grow berries in SP.

Major Agnostic December 18th, 2021 12:36 PM

Wow freezing is still happening after all this time to fix the game? Man, I'm so disappointed since I'm one of the seemingly few people who loves gen IV more than 5+ and this is what GameFreak did to the remake.

colours December 18th, 2021 12:38 PM

at post-game! i'm thinking of battle tower strategies atm. c:

LilyGardy December 19th, 2021 2:11 AM

I am in the postgame at the moment and have the National Pokedex.

I am EV training Pokemon for the Battle Tower and accidentally found a Shiny when training Starmie.

It was a Shiny Togepi on a new Pokemon chain Thankfully the Shiny Patch is instantly recognisable.

Sheep December 20th, 2021 5:04 AM

In victory road!! Not confident in my ability to beat the E4 but finally getting here a month later feels nice \o/

Yoshi808 December 21st, 2021 6:19 AM

Got all the berries, I think...

Berries I have: Cheri, Chesto, Pecha, Rawst, Aspear, Leppa, Oran, Persim, Lum, Sitrus, Figy, Wiki, Mago, Aguav, Iapapa, Razz, Bluk, Nanab, Wepear, Pinap, Pomeg, Kelpsy, Qualot, Hondew, Grepa, Tamato, Ganlon, Salac, Enigma, Rowap, Roseli, Custap, Lansat, Liechi, Micle, Petaya, Salac, Starf, Jaboca, Roseli, Payapa, Wacan, Apicot, Chople, Kasib, Colbur, Shuca, Passho, Rindo, Charti, Chilan, Yache, Haban, Tanga, Kebia, Coba, Babiri, Occa.

Berries I have from Amity Square: Cornn, Rabuta, Magost, Nomel, Durin, Watmel, Belue, Spelon, Pamtre.

Fortunately, in Pastoria, the berry changes from the lady in the last house west every time you restart the game, so you can get whatever berry she offers by having patience and restarting the game until you get the berry you want.

ReKoil January 1st, 2022 4:06 AM

At the top of Mount Coronet, just whooped Team Galactic's behind. About to catch Palkia, hopefully ^.^

gimmepie January 1st, 2022 4:22 AM

I've now finished up with Byron and defeated 2/3 of the Commanders post-bombing. I've taken a bit of a side trip to Iron Island (and left off part way through it) before heading towards Acuity and Snowpoint though.

JDragon921 January 1st, 2022 1:10 PM

Beat the game on both versions and opened up new profiles to try new teams using the other 2 starters, Piplup and Turtwig. The Turtwig run hasn't started, but I just beat Mars in Valley Windworks on the Piplup run.

Didn't know how powerful the water gun of a Prinplup can be. I have to solo the game until Eterna Forest and the Grand Underground because of the team I had planned, but Prinplup is so good that it's going surprisingly well.

ReKoil January 2nd, 2022 3:24 PM

Sheep January 3rd, 2022 1:28 AM

Exploring Route 225 and 226! Have a bunch of Pokémon on my team I caught in the Underground so they can level up and evolve for the dex entry too, whooo.

ReKoil January 3rd, 2022 9:10 AM

Went up to the elite four so I could fly back, then went into the underground to explore areas I hadn't been yet and do some mining. lots and lots of mining.
Got all the fossil mons now =D
Gonna train all the fossil mons to evolve and then backtrack for areas that require Waterfall.

JDragon921 January 3rd, 2022 9:48 PM

After a bunch of underground catching and thinking, I got what seems to be the team for Piplup.

Before Gardenia, I went into the underground and caught Togepi, Misdreavus, Croagunk, and Chingling(aboveground).
The team during the battle became:
Prinplup, Togepi, Misdreavus, Croagunk, and still Chingling. I wanted to run around in circles for like an hour to get enough happiness to evolve and all that stuff, but I didn't find it worth my time. I was able to actually take down Gardenia first try using some charm and yawn strats(really? they made Roserade mostly physical?). Only 2 of my mons fainted, with them being Misdreavus and Togepi, I believe. Could've stopped Togepi from fainting, but it is what it is. Probably could've had no faints if I thought about it more, but I had fun. That was my first time fighting Gardenia with anything other than a coked-up Monferno rolling around with Flame Wheel, so it was nice to have to think.

I caught as many underground mons as I can to get acceptable IVs (and egg moves since the underground gives those) on my team.
My final Piplup team's gonna be:
Empoleon, Togekiss, Mismagius, Toxicroak, Chimecho(I guess? lul), and Mamoswine.
I think I have enough speed so I'll hold off on using Weavile, because that's what I took with me on my 2nd Chimchar run. I've already used Mamoswine before I got Sneasel on that run so I might get Abomasnow if I don't care about hail damage.

Decided to take the tryhard route and grind a Ralts up to lv 30 so it's a Gardevoir, who gets Wish at lv 28. When I get to Pastoria City, I can relearn Wish and then breed Male Garde with my female Chimecho so it has Wish. I'll have 1 cleric and then I can make the eventual Togekiss learn Wish at a later level in case I need it. I kinda really like my team as it is right now, so I may not do it... But I already grinded that Ralts to lv 30 so I might have to so I don't tell myself that I wasted an hour throwing leaves at Gastrodons. Having a blast though.

ReKoil January 5th, 2022 10:28 AM

Beat the E4 and Cynthia a couple nights ago... I was level 63 on all my mons going in, resulting in me being overleveled for the E4, but compared to Cynthia's highest level mon I ended up being underleveled.
Such a whack level curve here. Anyway, from the E4 the only challenge was Lucian's Alakazam which KO'd two of my mons before I knocked it out.
As for Cynthia... dear god what a stall fast. That Milotic and Gastrodon are just ewww.... That Gastrodon is dangerous because she'll switch it in if you use a water move twice in a row.
Lucario got dealth with in two hits by my Mismagius before it could do anything. Spiritomb is just a nuisance rather than a threat. And once Garchomp ran out of earthquakes I Ice beamed it's face gone.
Apparently there was a Roserade on her team too, but I don't even remember it rofl

Anyway now I'm mainly just doing swarm mons and the Daily Trophy garden mon atm

Palamon January 6th, 2022 7:11 PM

I'm at the e4, and let me tell you, this is honestly the most difficult Elite Four I've ever faced. I'm an adult, and I'm struggling at this! I wasn't expecting it to be this difficult, I'm screaming.

I went in expecting to breeze through it all except maybe Cynthia. Turns out they've upped the difficult and improved the AI lmao. I had to work through the League. Especially Cynthia, god damn.

Aslan January 8th, 2022 10:57 PM

Right now I'm in the postgame. When I first played DPPT, I always wanted to achieve the black trainer card. So it might take forever but I'd like to achieve it in BDSP. I'm having a lot of fun in the underground farming statue variants + mysterious shards. I've also gone on a catching spree for Pokemon I need to fill in my Pokedex, I've almost caught and evolved most of the Sinnoh ones. I've also been slowly working through gym leader rematches.

After that... I'll probably be working on IV breeding + EV training a postgame team before taking on the Battle Tower and E4/Champion rematches. Been having a lot of fun with the postgame :D

Mikachu January 9th, 2022 8:18 PM

Due to work, taking my time exploring the underground, and waiting for a new set of JoyCons, I am only at the 3rd gym xD. I've sunk over 40 hours in and normally would have finished a Pokemon Game 2xs over yet here I am lol.

ReKoil January 10th, 2022 6:11 AM

Got Ditto now so I'm going around catching stuff and breeding them for a living dex.
Spent several hours in the Grand Underground getting all the Grass and Fire starters too. Still need to find 2 water starters (Totodile and Mudkip), but got bored with it xD

Sheep January 12th, 2022 3:13 AM

Captured Heatran with a Luxury Ball! Pretty happy about that, even if it’s mostly going to sit in the box haha. Going to be doing some battle tower soon. \o/

giradialkia January 12th, 2022 5:21 AM

I’ve completed the game on Shining Pearl, fully competitive-ready.

Started up Brilliant Diamond and for whatever reason, decided to EV train my first few ‘mon before taking on the story. I guess so I’ll have an easier time when I reach the Battle Tower? But I don’t know.
So my Empoleon, Staraptor, Luxray, Gyarados, Bibarel and Pachirisu are all fully EV trained. It took literally 20-odd hours. I got my 3rd badge last night.

Trying to do shiny hunt with pokemon radar. After a chain of 53 and 10,000 steps of resetting, I still got no shiny pachi :(. I think I am done with BDSPfor now and will be back to breeding in sword and shield

Stormlax January 12th, 2022 7:19 AM

I'm at the Hearthome City Gym (#5) about to battle Fantina. I'm still working my way through the story, despite being more than 20 hours in. Hunting for items and rare spawns in the Grand Underground sucked up way too much of my time.

Autumn94 January 12th, 2022 5:04 PM

Just beat Cynthia mere moments ago. I had to use Full Restores, you know the "pay to win" method because I was tired of losing, tbh.

In the battle tower... forever. At level 10, I win 5 or 6 (just 1 or 2 away from the battle tycoon) and end up losing, dropping back to level 9. Wash, rinse, repeat. But the disappointing part is how I lose. I either get hit with 3 sheer cold moves in a row or a bright powder Gengar makes me not get one hit (miss my earthquake and psychic moves) while it gets 3 hypnosis in a row and slowly faint my mons. And I usually move first against Gengar with scarf, etc.
