Ultimate Fire Sapphire - Update 1

Welp, I think i should be a tad bit ashamed at how long I have been away from my challenges... They have been sitting there, watching me, eating away at my poor poor soul ;-;. Long story short I got really busy after my last update post. Good now though! Anyway, I just got back from vacationing with my family on a cruise ship. I had lots of time to play Pokemon while there. Of course, I was too scared to bring my DS so I brought my Game boy instead.

Spoiler:

- Picked Torchic and named him Miami (was on the plane to there)
- Mindlessly fought my way through 2 gyms as there are no fire types to catch
- Got confused on where to go next because I had no internet
- Made it to Mauville after a long break, Beat Watson
- Got into the volcanic grass / weird cave and found a Numel
- Caught The Numel and named her Boston (was on the flight back to Boston)
- Found a Torkoal, Named him Ocean (self explanatory at this point)
- Beat Aqua at the Volcano and traveled down to the 4th gym
- Miami evolved twice sometime between the 1st and 3rd gyms
- Saved

Team:

Miami the Blaziken - lvl 36
Boston the Numel - lvl 22
Ocean the Torkoal - lvl 14

i figured i'd post an update too:

Spoiler:

all i can say is the first few badges were pretty easy! now i cleared out Koga's mostly Psychic-type? gym trainers, but noticed i couldn't quite beat him yet, so i'm trying to grind a little now. decided i'd catch some more pokemon for my dex so i could get the tools from Oak's aides, but it's slow going... i did manage to get Hitmonchan, and omg i loved him when he learned all of the elemental punches in one go! <3 ... and only justnow when i looked up their sprites did i realise that Poliwhirl evolves with a Water Stone rather than leveling... so I guess i'll get on that next. haha!

Mismagius was annoying as usual, It managed to take out Ace with a crit Psybeam and Snow fell after pulling some random shenanigans off with Metronome and Yawn . Mable was able to finish Mismagius off with a combination of Tickle and Astonish.

Well, I don't want to double post, so I'll edit this with my 'update'. I started with my cute little Cersei (aka May) and went to go save Birch with his Mudkip. Ending up getting relaxed but seems to be pretty strong so that's good! Went along the route nearby eventually and caught a Lotad and a Surskit. I've now arrived in Petalsburg and have just helped Wally catch his Ralts and spoke to Daddy.
