Fire Type UMC - Blue Final Update
Ok, biiig update.
-After beating Sabrina and all that Jazz, I flew back to Pallet Town, then surfed down to Cinnabar Island.
-Went to Pokemon Mansion, where I caught a Magmar, whom I named Vesuvius. I promptly taught him Psychic and Psywave, so he didn't suck so much. I then zipped down and got the secret key, dug back to the pokemon center and healed, then trained my pokemon for the battle with Blaine.
-Blaine was actually tons easier than I thought, considering his resistance to most of my good moves. Firestorm pretty much took center stage again, with Earthquake and Slash destroying what Vesuvius' Psychic couldn't (AKA, most of it :P). after receiving Fire Blast, I promptly taught it to Flaria who has the best Special Attack in my team.
-I then flew back to Viridian City, to beat Giovanni for the third time, which was, again, far easier than I though. After spending all that time training, Earthquake and Psychic did most of the work again.
-And so, with my Earthbadge firmly in hand, and with Vesuvius having learnt Fire Punch at last, I moved on to Victory road, which I waltzed through, having completed it a million times before. I stocked up on full restore and revive, deposited my HM slaves, then headed in!
-Lorelei was far easier than I thought. Despite all but one of her pokemon having an uber STABed Surf, only Lapras actually used it, before being promptly dispatched by Slash.
-Next comes Brune, who was a cakewalk with Psychic, and a few Fire Punches thrown in for good measure. On to Agatha!
-Who was, again, a cinch. Thank god for the lack of levitate! Earthquake destroyed her with no problems.
-On to Lance. Lance was probably the hardest of the bunch, because dragons are strong aginst Fire. But Flareon made his only contribution here, managing to hit with all 5 of his Fire Blasts. Alaria then chimed in with some Digs, then slunk back into uselessness. Ah how I miss poor Arcanine!
-Then comes Doofus, who was a mixed kettle of fish. Most were easy, like Pidgeot and Alakazam and Exeggutor, but Blastoise was a tough nut to crack. Firestorm shone here, with Slash saving the day once more. And thus ends the first leg on my Fire type UMC. With my DS and Pokemon Platinum coming in a few weeks, I need to get a wriggle on.

-Ok, nostalgia aside, I named myself Ebony, picked a Cyndaquil named Inferno, then headed over to Mr Pokemon's house. Got the egg, a pokedex and a worried phone call. Whoops. Sorry mum. Then a distressed phone call from Professor Elm has me hi-tailing it back to to the lab, beating ??? along the way, whom I identified as Doofus.
-I then set out on my adventure, hammering Falkner with Ember, then, gambolling through the Ruins of Alph and Union cave to Azalea Town. Talked to an indignant Kurt, then followed him to the Slowpoke Well, utterly crucifying Team Rocket, then moved on to Bugsy, who was, needless to say, exceptionally easy.
- Went to Ilex Forest, beating Doofus again, got cut, then moved on to Goldenrod, grabbing two Thunderpunch TM's. I then went up and beat Whitney, the little sook, gaining the Plainbadge. I then zipped over to the flower shop, grabbing the squirtbottle, caught Sudowudo, boxed him, caught a Growlithe that I named Gonzales (cause i'm that cool :P), the trained him up to near Inferno's level.
-I headed up to Ecruteak, visited burned tower, hammered Doofus, who called me weak again, beat Morty, beat the Kimono Girls, then headed down to Olivine. Climbed the towed, jumped back down, got Strength and the good rod, and surfed to Cianwood.
-Thrashed Eisune, then hammered Chuck with my newly learned Thunderpunch. Hooray for Typhlosion! Got Fly from Chuck's wife, who thinks he's fat, then flew back to Olivine to give the Medicine to Jasmine. Beat jasmine with Flame Wheel, then went back to Goldenrod for a spot of gambling. And my Odd Egg actually hatched into a Magby! how lucky is that? So I trained up Krakatoa (Shut up. I like volcanoes, ok?), then got 2 Fire Blast TMs, which took FOREVER. Looked at the time, and decided it was bedtime. And that's all for now!
