Took a little while! But here's my first update:
Started in New Bark Town, chose Chikorita as temp pokémon
Went to Mr. Pokémon's house- received unknown egg
Bumped into "Brandon" on my way back to Prof oak, barely won the battle.
Gave the unknown egg to Prof Elm
Received pokéballs from Ethan, used those to catch misc pokémon then traded in 4 eggs (Ledyba, Krabby, Sudowoodo and Eevee)
Evolved Eevee into a Flareon with a Fire Stone
Traveled/ trained up Route 30 & 31 to Violet City.
Traveled up Bellsprout tower, received TM Flash
Beat Violet gym (Go Sudowoodo!)
Trained down Route 32, through the Union Cave, past the Slowpoke well (where I saw some shady characters) to Azalea Town
Talked to Kurt, then proceeded solo down the Slowpoke well, beat TR and save the slowpokes (yay!)
Leveled Flareon to lvl 15 (learned ember) then took on the Azalea Gym.
Traveled out to the Ilex Forest, beat "rival" Brandon.
