Pokemon Crystal "Blog" Part 7, 8, + 9: Breaking Down the Ice, Slaying of the Dragons, and 1 More than Four?!?
After defeating Chuck and Jasmine, it was time to head off to the next gym, in Mahogany Town. I went back to Ecruteak City, and headed east this time, and surfed across the water, and arrived shortly in Mahogany Town.
The Gym was locked, but a guy was nice and told me to go north to the Lake of Rage for some sightseeing, so I did. I ran into a strange pokemon named Raikou on the way up, and he fled. I reached the center of the lake, and caught a mysterious red Gyarados, who seemed like it'd be funner to ride on him than a small crab. :P After the battle, a red scale appeared, and I picked it up.
I met a guy named Lance who asked me to help in discovering what was going on in Mahogany Town regarding Team Rocket. we fought through the hideout, and found the cause of the strange signals that made the Gyarados I caught red. After defeating the Electrodes, Lance left, and it was time to go to the gym.

After defeating Pryce, I got a call from Prof. Elm telling me that the Radio Tower in Goldenrod City had been taken over by Team Rocket. I immediately went north, caught a Pidgeotto, taught it fly, and flew back to Goldenrod.
After fightin to the top of the tower, I found they hid the real director underground, so off I went to find him. After finding him, he gave me the card key that I needed in order to get to the real top of the tower, and I went back, and defeating team rocket, *supposedly* once and for all.
I flew back to Mahogany Town, as it was time to enter the Ice Path, and head on to the final Johto Gym. After sliding on a lot of ice and a lot of grinding levels, gathering the final HM, Waterfall, and arriving in Blackthorn City, it was time for my final Johto Gym Battle.

After defeating Claire, I flew back to New Bark town, and headed west for Kanto and the Indigo Plateau. At the end of Victory Road, my rival appeared and battled me again, finally realizing he lacked the trust and care of his pokemon. After a TON of more training in Victory Road, I used a Rare Candy to even out to exp bars when hitting level 62, and began my assault on the Elite 4...
