Update #1 on Silver run

Plot

Spoiler:

So... I may or may not have just binge played half of the game in a week, and I may or may not already be preparing for the Elite Four...

Anyways, after clearing out the entire region's Donphan population in Victory Road, I think I'm ready to go! I'm a bit underleveled (excluding Espeon), but my two best Pokemon have good matchups against most of the Elite 4, so I'm pretty confident. Then it's off to Kanto!

damn it's been a while sorry!! not much to this update, i struggled against the battle co. as soon as i arrived to castelia LOL so i was like mmmm nah and went after the side stuff w hugh and team plasma and used that opportunity to grind up a good bit esp since i had a gym coming up. i went back and beat the battle co. easily after that and then just went straight for burgh and managed to get through pretty easily. perry took out his first two pokemon pretty easily, but leavanny took him out, but not before i could paralyze him. defense curl + rollout w benjamin came in clutch once again and that was that. nothing too climactic, but still a fun battle. i'm finally about to get some more party members so the next update will happen...eventually aha. playing catch up isn't always fun esp since yamask and trubbish aren't the best attackers and might have a hard time taking things on their own for a while, but that's a problem for future me to deal with.

so honestly the most difficult part of this update was just training yamask and trubbish to catch up. and like trubbish is so bad to the point it hinders the rest of the team lmao hoping things will get better as more moves and evolution happens. also flaaffy evolved right after i beat elesa. immediately after. cool af. ​

this was probably the most difficult gym so far since half the team is weak to ground and the other have can't exactly get a lot of damage output easily. first attempt was almost a dunsparce sweep, until excadrill came in. i couldn't get a burn on w niles, he kept getting flinched or missed and then perry and lyle were easy pickins from there lol. second attempt i thought would fail bc i lost benjamin to clay's first pokemon, but somehow this ended up being the round i won? idk how i did it tbh lol. but i won't question it. on to the next area...and a new encounter soon. i started to get excited until i remembered it's one of my least favorite pokemon...and it's another electric type so lol not the most helpful ig, but it fills a different role than ampharos does at least, so we'll see how it goes.​

getting through chargestone cave was less a hassle than normal bc i opted to use repels. i just don't have good counters for the wild pokemon in there, but we leveled up enough to get lyle and niles to evolve. after arriving on the other side at mistralton, i went straight to the tall grass to catch our next party member, a zebstrika that i named ricardo. then i couldn't remember when we get our final floatzel...turns out, he's available via surf back in lostlorn forest so i fly back and surfed in that tiiiiny spot back and forth for way too long and finally got our last party member, a buizel who i named elvira...she's the only girl, actually. after catching ricardo and elvira up, skyla's gym was literally no problem. with two electric types, a rollout-er, and a floatzel with ice fang, it was a cakewalk. now with a full team and everyone evolved though, i don't know where the remaining difficulties lie, but i know zebstrika's usefulness is going to wane soon enough...so i'm anticipating that.​

leveled up a lot between gyms. so i thought that drayden's gym would be an easy sweep with elvira's ice fang, but that didn't go well. i actually thought i was going to lose this fight because i missed ice fang against his flygon and he took out elvira. i burned him with niles and then thought i could just set up coil on benjamin and roost as needed, but he had earth power so that didn't work out and half the team is weak to ground. burn ended up saving me against flygon. haxorus almost got me, but perry's confuse ray came in clutch and saved the day. he didn't get to stay in the battle, but niles held his own and got the final blow. but hey, we got the badge. now we have all the team plasma stuff to do rip...​
