  • Too much free time - That's what I currently am suffering from
  • The games on my laptop - Right now I'm sick of pretty much every single one of them. There's nothing that particularly interests me in the shelf either.
  • The exception - Pokemon, which I haven't played for quite a while
  • Innovative - I am not
Conclusion? Time to play some Pokemon, and instead of trying something new, I'm just going to do something that never gets (too) old - a Nuzlocke.
However, just so it won't be too easy, I might try and play some kind of hack. Then again, that just means additional grinding. The solution? Play a GSC hack where grinding takes less time than on 3rd generation hacks and therefore will be less of an issue. I still have Pokemon Crystal World somewhere on my computer and can't remember ever having played it. So, that one it is. I am sooooo going to regret this. But it's not like I can't just retreat into the shadows of inactivity once again should my motivation not suffice to either win or lose. Anyway...
Let's do this

And no, I didn't manage to find a better smiley. That one here already took >10 minutes to find...


Spoiler:

Alright, first things first.

<--- not only a coward but also picks the most boring frame

That's pretty close to my real name, so why not? Saves me the time to type in mondays or something.


And I even bothered to put in the correct day and time
Correct when disregarding from the barbaric 12 hour clock, of course


So, what are the starters...?

Moltres? Meh. I want Chikorita. Maybe it can learn LS in this version...


That's not Chikorita (totally not the obvious outcome )

I love that song though

Two notable things about this:
  • level 1 - this might become a quick game over
  • not visible here, but it's carrying a Pokeball. Hmm...
Then, this:

Oh, come on!
First, Thundershock doesn't work because Rattata apparently is Ground or part Ground in this game, and then that crit. More bad luck is hardly possible. And yes, that was my very first encounter.

I might want to start over ... tomorrow.

What did you expect?

Let's continue playing the bizarre abomination that is Pokemon Crystal World!
Spoiler:

Since I wasn’t going to do anything differently, I thought I might as well just continue the game…


Same first encounter, but no accursed critical hits this time!


These things don't have a particularly high life expectancy....


Don't think you're anything special, you'll die like anyone else


Well yeah, that was bound to happen:

Stupid part-ground type, forgot about that for a few seconds. And the freeze hax after the first Powdersnow didn't help either.


Dark cave is some kind of cruel joke in this game...


First I wasted all my Pokeballs on this damn thing here, then I kept OHKOing everything I met.


Sprout Tower was kinda scary. Probably to justify the abundance of ghosts the monks were using. The last guy had a Gengar as his last, but it was surprisingly harmless.


Falkner time! After lots of annoying Rock/Grounds and/or similar things used by the normal trainers, he just had Aerodactyl and Skarmory. What a joke.


Yaay, finally more than one Pokemon. Too bad it had to be Togepi and Togepi sucks in this generation. A lot.





Oh well.

Finally a successful capture!

Not sure how useful this is going to be, but it's better than nothing.

...not very useful. Lasted 5 minutes. It did get from level 7 or so to 17 in that time, but in the end, it died to some crit Pursuit nonsense even though I didn't intend to switch. Stupid crap.


An useful catch in union cave


...Union cave, in which I was trapped and had to face uncomfortable foes...


... too uncomfortable.


That's gg for me.


Third time's the charm - if memory serves me correctly, that motto worked for me in Ruby (?), but failed in FR Omega - or was it E386? I don't know. Like it matters. What about this time?

Spoiler:

First, why did I lose? The first time I got obviously luck screwed, the second time the reasons are plentiful and diverse.

  • Hax. Articuno's freeze and Murkrow's Pursuit crit were unfortunate. Togepi's explosion happened a lot earlier than expected.
  • The "it's gonna die anyway"-mentality. Rattata, Togepi and, to a lesser extend, Spearow are not exactly the best, but...
  • Not paying attention. The main reason why I suck at most video games. Except for maybe Spearow and Vulpix, all my deaths were mainly caused by this. And not just the deaths, also the fact that I didn't catch anything from shortly after the beginning until after Violet.
  • These &$#§ing type changes. Rattata being Ground killed my Zapdos in the first attempt and my own Rattata in the second. Sandslash has some kind of second type that resists Flying, made one used by a random trainer pretty painful to defeat. Togepi being Steel, Vulpix being Fire/Normal and Spearow being pure Flying didn't do any harm yet, but eventually it would have happened as well.
  • Mud Slap. I had the TM. If I would have used it, that Geodude with Rock Throw wouldn't have stood a chance.
  • The fact that I'm feeling constipated. Nobody wants to know this, but it's a nice scapegoat, isn't it?

Because now I knew I would have to visit the first two routes with just one Pokeball, I just killed the Weedle on the first and...


A grass type was exactly what I needed, and of course it has to escape. That's not my fault, at least.
And yes, I insist on using a Zapdos called AMADEUS.

Oh great, first I miscick and use Peck against that Articuno...

...then the game continues with BS.


Seriously. Two runs. Two fights against this thing. Two Powder Snows on a Pokemon without a status condition. Two freezes. Two inevitable deaths (well, I could have switched DOOMED the Rattata out, but I was afraid....rightfully so, I say.). If I would at least have access to a goddamn ice heal at this point... This. Is. BS.

It was not to be.

Just for the heck of it, I'm trying this again. Be it to embarrass myself once more or to regain my honor.
Spoiler:

But this time, there is a change of plan.


And this time, I seem to be a lot luckier.


The biggest part of this battle may or not have been fought with a ridiculously overleveled (just to compensate for the offensive type advantage Zapdos has on both of my mons while I don't have any) Hoppip


By the way, Tail Whip does this. What will Attract do? How can I lower defense now?


I hate these Dittos

At least I only lost a single Pokeball. It Synthesis'd and, when trying to weaken it some more, it died.

Three Pokemon at the same time: That's more than I ever had in this game so far


Forgot about the poison

And yes, that was an A-Unown.

One Pokeball at a full-HP Gastly...
The result? Caught it.


Hoppip might be a Bug-type in this game (which is pure nonsense, but I guess it needed to be nerfed somehow), but at least it still can do this :)

At least upon evolving into Skiploom, it became Bug/Grass, that's a lot better. Still worse than Grass/flying, though.

Falkner time again! All I have to do against this Aero is sit back and enjoy


Skarmy wasn't a lot harder even though I stupidly used Fire Spin first instead of just killing it with an Ember.


...and I forgot to restock my Pokeballs. This here was my last one

Slowpoke Well. Togepi, Sandshrew and Poliwag joined the team, one or two other captures failed due to bad luck. Suddenly a 10 level-jump and...

... a crit. Of course.

And as if that wasn't enough...


And suddenly I'm down from 6 Pokemon to 3 and one cannon fodder again.

Azelia gym appears to be Fire. And 5 minutes ago, I still had a Poliwag


Oops, I walked into the rival.
Fortunately his Dodou, Vulpix and Zapdos were easy pray. Sandslash's name is Admiral because I was trapped in Union Cave when I caught it, the way to Violet is sealed off and you can't go anywhere without fighting a few hikers (who killed me in attempt #2) and other junk. So basically just one of these lame, overused jokes that come to mind faster than anything else when trying to think of a nickname.
Well, Zapdos was actually still pretty strong, but no match for Rock/Ground Sandslash.


Jumpluff time!


I accidentally fought Bugsy before having defeated all of his trainers, but that was not a problem. The line-up of Charizard, Hooh and Entei might sound impressive, but they really were no big deal. Hooh was a bit annoying due to being sturdy, but it couldn't do a lot of damage either. Bugsy had lower levels than those Rockets and even the two or three of his Gym trainers I fought. Sandslash and Moltres won without too many problems.


Current team. Not sure whether I should try and level Why? the Togepi up or just use it as cannon fodder for a switch that would otherwise be uncomfortable.



Not dead yet. That's something :)
Spoiler:

It hurts giving Sandslash Cut... But that's the only way to go.


What the hell is this? In the middle of low and mid-20 trainers, suddenly this:

And why is does this thing not have a Flying type, but an useless and unreasonable Electric one? Who were you and what have you done to Jumpluff?

Thankfully that thing didn't have any Rock moves. The level 46 Electrode that followed it was easily dealt with by Admiral. Boom missed after Sand-Attack spam

Meanie the Geodude (named so because it was a Geodude who killed the best of my Zapdoses) joined the team for a short time - his pure Rock typing was constantly annoying to me and eventually its demise.

Caught another Poliwag :)
Interestingly enough, exactly at the level where I lost Polyester.


Whew. That was pretty close. I need Surf.


Got an awesome catch in Nazi Park

And because being level 32 is so much safer than 21...

Whitney's gym is grass...


Whitney herself had a Jumpluff (what a waste of a great Pokemon) and ... this

So i decide to sacrifice a Peasant...

...to win. Even with an Energy Root, this was pretty damn close though.



Still not dead.
Spoiler:

New team member! Guess what it is...


Exactly. I really love these things when they're on my side. Pretty sturdy, not a lot of weaknesses, Sludge and Sludge Bomb are great spam moves...

Oh crap. Chansey is a Steel type. This might become pretty painful later on.

Everyone is at level 40!
For some reason I always value that level highly, no idea why exactly.

And only now I enter Dark Cave. Got this. By the way, did I mention Weezing is Poison/Dark too?


Poor Sudo


By the way, look at this:

Not too interesting? Well, now look at this:
[/URL]

Anyway, I caught a Staryu here.


Unfortunately, it wasn't very long-lived. No idea what I was doing here.


I also got the Eevee from Goldenrod. Currently it's level 30 and hasn't evolved yet
And it's not Normal but Ground, which severely hampers it.


Two or three days of nothing later, I finally play some more: I train my Eevee up from level 30 to 42 or so. Still didn't evolve.
I decide to find a spot with higher-leveled Pokemon. Well, too bad Route 38 (Ecru.-Oliv.) is glitchy and weird and made the game freeze pretty soon. I don't have a screenshot because stupid photobucket stopped uploading at 94% and froze as well (apparently this is infectious), but let's just say it was a bizarre sight. So, since the game apparently doesn't continue past this point... let's say I beat it

I've been itching to do a Nuzlocke for a while... anyway this will be played on Ruby.

Rules:
1. If a Pokemon Faints, its dead, release it.
3. You can only catch/recieve one Pokemon in each Area. A town is one area, a route is one area, a cave is one area, etc. Should you fail to catch a Pokemon for any reason (other than game corruption) than too bad.
4. You must nickname all of your Pokemon (optional, but highly reccomended)
5. No catching legendaries.
6. Trading is disallowed, but the reasons following this clause are allowed. Egg trading is okay, same thing with Pokemon that can't have eggs. (optional) Trading simply for the purpose of evolution is perfectly OK.
7. Change the battle style to SET. (optional)

I just started a Nuzlocke of LeafGreen to keep me occupied while waiting for stuff, and I will now begin for you my Nuzlocke journal!

Leaf Green Journal #1

It started out with a dream. Not one of those wonderful dreams where you’re floating through a magical field of rainbows, cupcakes, and unicorns, but a scary one where you’re sitting in a blank room and a creepy old man can’t tell which gender you are and forgets his own grandson’s name. It was utterly traumatic, I’m sure none of you have ever experienced such a terrible, terrible nightmare.

Anyway, I woke up to begin my glorious Pokemon journey at the ripe old age of ten years old. It’s the perfect age to go around taming monstrous dragon creatures with superpowers! I go prancing off to live my epic adventure and AM SUDDENLY ASSAULTED FROM THE CREEPY OLD GUY FROM MY DREAM! OMGOMGOMGOMG. He forces me to come to his lab because he has something to show me, but everything turns out much better than the utter horror I expected. Unfortunately, his grandson was there, proving once again that this particular old man desperately needs to be put in a home. DESPERATELY. But I got my first Pokemon, a Docile Charmander who I named Trogdor (if you read my Fire Monotype Run, this is a bit of a theme). Oak’s grandson, who makes up for being so utterly forgettable by being a total jerk, picks Squirtle. Just to be a jerk. I don’t know his name, but I think I’ll call him Arse. And while I’m at it, I’ll have Trogdor scratch his Squirtle to death. WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THEM APPLES?
Knowing the dangers of our quest and fairly certain that only one of us is going to make it out of this alive, Trogdor and I set off to Viridian City to take part in the oh-so-dangerous task of being… DELIVERY BOYS. Or, more accurately, DELIVERY GIRL AND A FLAMING DELIVERY LIZARD. But that doesn’t roll off the tongue as well. Trogdor scratched some rats and birds to death and learned Ember along the way, so he left a small trail of charred corpses behind us as we went back to Oak, where he demanded that Arse and I let him live vicariously through us. FINE, then. I WON’T live my own dreams.

I grabbed my Pokeballs and my 90s version of Bulbapedia and went on my merry way. Again. In the process, I caught Trogdor a friend, a male Level 2 Pidgey named Winged Rat. He wanted a more complimentary nickname, but I said no. Mwahaha. Now I’m in the process of training him up a bit… WILL HE SURVIVE? Only time will tell!

I've never done any kind of challenge or anything, but recently I was inspired to try this. I am playing a FireRed challenge and a Diamond one, but I'm putting FireRed on hold to focus on Diamond.

I just reached Jubilife, with a Shinx and my Chimchar. So far I have lost a level 2 Starly.

Pokémon LeafGreen:
Nuzlocke Challenge

Chapter 1: It's Nuzlocke Time!


So, I started the game and super-speeded through the intro. Named myself RED and my rival BURGER. I played my NES which has Super Mario World and lost one life. Wait, what? Anyway, I went to the outskirts of Pallet Town and I found The Ninja Oak. You see, all professors are ninjas. I followed his conga line to the lab and it so happened that my impatient rival named BURGER was there. I picked Squirtle, and I will never regret it. Then, I nicknamed Squirtle KYON. Yes, if you watch Haruhi then Kyon will be a familiar face. And Burger recieved a Bulbasaur. I hope he's in nuzlocke too. Next, I battled Burger. He was very easy. I ventured through Route 1 and arrived at Viridian City. I did all the delivery boy stuff. What am I? A mailman? Got a Town Map from Daisy. *yawn*. When will the fun start? So I got five Pokéballs and I'm off to ROUTE 22 for a Pokémon....

The Team so far:

Squirtle // Kyon

Moves:
Tackle
Tail Whip
Bubble

Leave Greeb Journal #2

So, Winged Rat survived his Training, and I picked up a new addition to the team on Route 22: a Mild, Female, Level 4 Rattata I named Top Percent. Because she's totally in the top percentage of Rattatas. Anyway I grinded her and went back to Route 22 to challenge Arse. Top Percent beat Pidgey with a few Quick Attacks but took some hits. Winged Rat got Criticaled by Squirtle, but survived for me to use a Potion... and this happened twice. My DS took some verbal abuse each time it happened, because I thought I was going to lose my Pidgey, but he pulled through both tims. Not to mention that he levelled up in the process and learned Gust! You go, Winged Rat! It was a scary close battle, but there were no casualties... this time. I stocked up on Antidotes and it was off to Viridian Forest! Only one Potion... can I do this? ... before I found out, I was attacked by yet another senile old man. I DO NOT WANT YOUR ADVICE OR YOUR STUPID WEEDLE I KNOW HOW TO CATCH POKEMON THANK YOU. I didn't catch anything on Route 2 because I don't want duplicates and my Pokemon there was another Pidgey, but in Viridian Forest I caught a Lonely Level 5 Caterpie and named her Flutterby. I'm currently in the process of grinding her, and she's a Metapod at the moment.

I finished levelling everyone to Level 9, helped SO much by Flutterby's Shed Skin getting rid of her poison problems (freaking Weedle). I healed the team up and headed deeper into Viridian Forest to take on some Bug Catchers. But no sooner did I get the first one did Shed Skin fail on me, and I didn't want to use up all my Antidotes so soon. As soon as the Bug Catcher was gone, I gathered my poor, sick Metapod into my arms and ran her as fast as I could to the Pokemon Center back in Viridian.

2 HP.

That's what she had at the counter. She made it, but HOLY CRAP that was close. I may not have the heart to get through all this, folks. But I have to try. Fortunately, none of the other Bug Catchers poisoned anyone, which was a relief. Even better, I got several glorious messages in rapid succession: Flutterby grew to Level 10! Flutterby evolved into Butterfree! Flutterby learned Confusion! Flutterby doesn't suck anymore! There may or may not have been epic party tiemz with all my Pokemon friends when that happened. Anyway, when I got out of the Forest to Route 2, I was denied a catch by my rule of not catching doubles of any Pokemon by a Rattata showing up. BE A SPEAROW >:[ Now I'm in the process of grinding everybody to level 13, and my DS decided to freeze halfway through and knock everyone back to levels 9 and 10. You can imagine my elation.

Alright, not that I don't have other stuff to do, but I'm going to give this a try in Blue.

Rules:
#1. If a Pokemon faints, it is dead. The Pokemon will be placed into Bill's PC, in the highest number box available and is not able to be removed.
#2. Only the first Pokemon seen in an Area may be caught in that Area. An area is a town, route, or cave.
#3. All Pokemon will be nicknamed (based on the name of the character on the TV when I begin to nickname the Pokemon) - the Rival's pokemon will be nicknamed in the same way when first fought.
#4. Legendaries may not be caught
#5. Hacking will be allowed to simulate trade evolution only
#6. Battle Style will be SET
#7. Comics and/or Images will be attempted for interesting events


So, getting set up-

Fred wakes up and gets sent to Professor Oak's where Sam is waiting. After working through the Professor's faulty memory, Fred picks up a female Squirtle named Carla. Sam responds by choosing a Bulbasaur he names Chris.
Fred leaves, and Sam starts a fight and Carla beats Chris, although the battle is very close. Got a free sample from the PokeMart and was then attacked by a Pidgey (so no Route 1 pokemon for me :(). Carla takes it out in two hits, allowing them to make it to Viridian City.
PokeMart tells me they need a delivery made and refuse service until Fred does their job. A Rattata stops Fred and Carla, but she takes it out easily. At least it got Fred to the Lab in time to get a Pokedex, then pick up a map from Sam's sister before returning to the Viridian City Pokemon Center.

Team-

Pokémon LeafGreen Nuzlocke 2: Random Events? I don't think so.

So, I happened to come across a wild Mankey while venturing in Route 22. I successfully caught it and nicknamed it Prime. I regret that I think. Anyway, I healed my Pokémon and went back to Route 1 to grind Prime. Apparently, Prime died in my training. A tragic life indeed. I exceeded to Viridian Forest anyway but apparently some old guy taught me to catch Pokémon even though I already caught Mankey. I was walking to Viridian Forest when I came across a female Caterpie. Caught it and nicknamed it Violet. Healed, then grinded Violet then Violet died. Again. So it's just me and Kyon.

(W00T! FIRST SCREENIE!)
Now as I end this quickly, I will save this at Viridian Pokémon Center.

Seren's Nuzlocke - Blue - Update 2: Pewter City Approach

Lamenting his lack of a route 1 pokemon, Fred is told of a patch of grass just west of Viridian City. He decides to head over to get a second pokemon, immediately finding a Rattata named Sylvester.
They attempt to go further, only to be stopped by Sam. Shepard, Sam's Pidgey, manages to injure Sylvester, but with some quick responses, Carla knocks her out and ends up facing Chris once again. The battle is even more one-sided, with Chris doing little more than just seeding Carla.
After surviving some training on Route 1, the three head north to the start of Route 2, and manage to find a Pidgey named DESTRUCTOR.
After spending the night at the Pokemon Center, Fred, Carla, Sylvester, and DESTRUCTOR make their way to Viridian Forest. A trainer named Tommy challenges Fred to a battle, and DESTRUCTOR blows away his bugs. Continuing on, Fred is challenged to another battle, and a Weedle manages to poison DESTRUCTOR. Sylvester takes out Kakuna, but is poisoned by another Weedle. Fortunately, Fred had picked up some Antidotes while in Viridian City and was able to continue on.
Looking ahead, Fred sees the light coming from the end of Viridian Forest but is stopped by a third trainer with a single Weedle that Carla manages to Bubble to unconsciousness.
Taking some time to train, Richard manages to defeat eight other Metapods himself before evolving into a Butterfree. Shortly after Richard learns his first offensive ability, the group manages to get themselves into the Pewter City Pokemon Center.

Seren's Nuzlocke - Blue - Update 3: A Full Squad

Shortly after waking up, Fred takes Richard and Carla to the local gym to face off against Brock. They start the battle, with Richard messing up Brock's Geodude's mind while Carla covers Onix in bubbles and works out how to solidify those bubbles into a blast of water.
After the Gym, Fred decides to make his way to the base of Mt. Moon, where he catches Lois, a Spearow living in Route 3. They head to the forest to get some fast training, and Lois quickly gets her power level up to the others level.
An exploratory quest into the mountain found an old Zubat named Cotton, who ended up paralyzed, blinded by sand, and physically weak before he was caught and taken into the Pokemon Center.
Scaring Zubats out for training, Cotton was surprised by a Paras who got a good hit in, nearly killing the newest member of Fred's team. After an emergency run to the PokeCenter, they continued training, and Cotton found a Zubat whose Leech Life damage was equal to his own Leech Life returns and managed to learn Supersonic from the fight.
The ability to interfere with his opponent's echolocation was all that was needed for Cotton to take on an enemy of his own level.

Team-

Hello Peoples, I'm new to Nuzlockes, and I'll be starting mine now, on Fire Red (Sooooo Cliche :(). I'll keep everyone updated, and I'll post the first part today or tommorow :), watch this space :)
EDIT: Right, here we go!
blah blah blah pokemon
blah blah blah adventure
blah blah blah senile old man
And I wake up. I walk out of my house and I see a patch of grass. Hmm... I think to myself, in the 10 years I've lived here I wonder why I've never walked in that slightly longer grass over there, lets go check it out! So without further ado, I make for the grass but who should I meet but the old man from my dream.
"Hello Theseus," He says, obviously proud to have remembered my name despite the fact I had to remind him of it barely minuites earlier. "Theseus, why not follow me to my lab, I have a surprise for you!" And so I do. Turns out, he had a free pokemon for me (Win!) and my Rival (D:) who is called Minos. So I take the pokemon, a squirtle called Posiden, and I turn around to set off on an adventure. "But Wait!" says Oak, "You must bring me a parcel from Veridian Town." I knew there must have been a catch, so I go to get the parcel, meeting a pidgey on the way who I wan't to catch but I can't because I have no balls, so I simply pick up the parcel and return to Pallet town. When I get there, it seems Oak wan'ts to live his life through me and Minos, so he sets us out on a simple quest to document every living thing in existance (aside humans of course, that would just be tricky) so I say yes, and off I go. But first, I battle Minos's little Bulbasaur with Posiden and trash him, elevating him to level 6. Along the way to Veridian, Posiden grows to Level 7, and just to the left of Veridian I luckily meet a Lv 3 Mankey, who I catch with little effort, christen Odesseus, then grind to Level 7 aswell. Just above Veridian, I meet a Lv 3 Rattata who I catch, but leave as he is since I dislike him, (he can die) but not before calling him Hamlin. Before venturing into Veridian Forest, which holds the tortured spirit of many a nuzlocker, I take a quick nap.

Team:

Posiden (Squirtle) Lv 7
Odesseus (Mankey) Lv 7
Hamlin (Rattata) Lv 3

Im really interested in Nuzlocke. In DP when you first go into Route 201 (without Pokeballs) can you still catch a Pokemon when you get them? And also if you run into a Bidoof on Route 202 but find another on Route 203 do you have to catch it a second time?

Nuzlocke Challenge - Platinum

-Rules: All of the above discluding healing no healing outside of battle, and I won't change my Battle Style to Set.

- I started my journey and picked a Chimchar, which I will name Vinny. (Route 201 - Gift)
- I battled and beat Barry and went to Lake Verity but sadly I didn't have Pokeballs.
- I went to Sandgem Town and named my Chimchar, who was my Route 1 Pokemon, Vinny.
- I go back to Twinleaf Town and then head over to Route 202 and catch a Bidoof and name it Bieber. (Route 202 - Wild Capture)
- Vinny barely makes it out of a battle against Youngster Tristan. I then train both Vinny and Bieber. I eventually make my way out of Route 202 and into Jubilife City.
- I meet Barry at the school and challenge the two students. Bieber sweeps them. (I'm telling the truth.)
- I ignore Route 218 as I'm not "wasting" the route on Magikarp. I go to Route 204 and catch a Starly which I name Sora. (Route 204- Wild Capture)
- We then battle Barry on Route 203. I hate the move Growl. Thankfully no one died and Bieber slayed Barry's Piplup. After multiple Bidoof, I find a Zubat and name it Danny. (Route 203 - Wild Capture.)



Party:
Vinny the Lv.10 Chimchar
Bieber the Lv.9 Bidoof
Sora the Lv.4 Starly
Danny the Lv.4 Zubat

Box:
None

Deceased:
None

Areas Covered:
Route 201 (Vinny)
Route 202 (Bieber)
Route 204 (Sora)
Route 203 (Danny)
