Well a lot has happened since Piplup and I jsut sat around Route 201 all day. When the both of finally decided it was time to get moving We encountered quite a few wild pokemon leveling my Piplup up to lv. 8 before arriving to Sandgem Town. Dawn welcomed us to Prof. Rowan after being bombarded by Barry once again. prof. Rowan decided all allowing Piplup to stay with me as he sees a connection between us and he wanted me to go around Sinnoh trying to discover new pokemon using his highly advanced Pokedex. I felt pretty special at that moment with Piplup along my side, things couldn't get better. Well after Dawn, showe me around Town, I headed back home to tell me mom the great news. She was really proud of me and wished me the best of luck on my journey. Before I was able to leave, Barry's mom came in asking me to deliver a package to Barry, so I couldn't refuse. After walking away from my home and heading back to Sandgem Town Piplup and I gained some great experience leveling up little Pippy to lv. 10.
As I arrived outside of Sandgem Town I caught up to Dawn who taught me hwo to catch a pokemon (like duh, I've done this a million times...lol) but after she left I now had 5 pokeballs on me, once I used to catch a Hasty Natured Lv. 4 Female Starly. After a bit of training and walking around Route 202...Piplup and Starly leveled up to lv. 12 both together after a few trainer battles and wild encounters.
I finally made it to the next City, Jubilife...WOW, what a big difference from Twinleaf Town. I had finally found Barry in the Pokemon School, and delivered the package to him. Lucky me there were two town maps in the box, and Barry was kind to give me one. Well, After spending some time in Jubilife I managed to get the Poke'tch, which I'm sure will come in handy in the near future and I leveled up my two pokemon as well...Lucky me, before leaving Jubilife to move onto the next City, Starly managed to gain so much experience it evolved into a graceful and fast Staravia!!! I couldn't be happier.
When walking out of Jubilife after healing up at the Pokemon Center, I bumped into BArry once again, who decided to have a battle. I decided Piplup should battle this one out to show Barry how much the two of us have grown. Things couldn't be easier Piplup easily took out his Starly and struggled a little with his turtwig's defences, but pulled a victory!!!
WHAT great news...before even entering the Oreburgh Gate, my Piplup grew so strong it evolved into Prinplup and learned Metal Claw(I decided on keeping it a Prinplup instead of evolving it all the way, to keep things origianl that is...plus I like my Prinplup just the way it is).
After arriving to Oreburgh I met up with Barry..........again........and not too long after I did a little training in the coal mines, and ended up meeting up with the Oreburgh Gym, Rorak!!! Well after doing a little training I now stand in front of the gym, getting myself ready to enter and face the Gym Leader of Oreburgh, Rorak!!!
