Clemstar's Ultimate Nuzlocke Challenge - Omega Ruby - UPDATE #2

After starting to become bored of the challenge due to the game being too easy, I literally lose 3 of my favourite team members straight away. These casualties included Zubat (Vayne), a newly caught Numel (Brand) and a Machop (Braum) that was incredibly close to evolving.

I struggled (sort of) on to defeat the 5th gym and i'm just about to hitch a ride with Steven and Latias to do that sidequest. My newly evolved Swampert (Nami) is still the running MVP, roughly levels above the next party member. I'm trying not to use her as much but feel as though i'm forced to every second battle.

Team:

Spoiler:

Swampert {F} (Nami) [Level 38]

Loudred {M} (Cho'Gath) [Level 25]

Numel {M} (Brand II) [Level 24]

Electrike {M} (Viktor) [Level 23]

Nuzleaf {M} (Maokai) [Level 24]

Anorith {F} (Elise) [Level 23]

[Xander729]

I just wanted to say that my Sun Nuzlocke has now failed as well. I wiped to Totem Lurantis, Salandit wouldve beaten it if it didnt have synthesis. Not being able to heal in battle really screwed me, but its a good rule so I cant just spam Potions, Boss Fights should be hard. You may take me off the sign up as I will not restart and try again, If i Change my mind I will re sign up

 

[Clemstar]

Just an update to say that I'd like to change my Ultimate Challenge to Single Challenge. So now i'm just going to try to complete Omega Ruby.
I don't think I have the time or motivation to do an Ultimate and I want to be able to try other challenges in the near future and not just be stuck on nuzlocke for like a year. Sorry for any inconvenience :)

UPDATE #3
My whole team got cucked by Aroma Lady Violet's overlevelled Vileplume on Route 123. I had a very bad feeling about my Swampert being 15 levels above everyone else. Damn that 4x weakness to grass. RIP Omega Ruby Nuzlocke :( Catch you all in another thread, or possibly this one at a later date!

Ok so a lot more has happened after heading into the Distortion World. I made it through the puzzle and had my final fight against Cyrus.

Cyrus

Big Spoiler Alert.

Spoiler:

Weavile/Lv. 75

Probopass/Lv. 75

Magnezone/Lv. 76

Honchkrow/Lv. 76

Palkia/Lv. 78

Dialga/Lv. 78

Finally the battle begins. Thinking its going to be easy like last time I send out a newly aquired Whiscash first trying Earthquake his Weavile. He ice punches and sends me almost below half. Going going for another one he switches up and uses Night Slash and crits him to death. Frustrated but not beaten I send out Lucario and finishes him off with Extremespeed.

A whole new battle begins here.......apparently this game took his control of Sinnoh's deities seriously because he he sends out freaking Palkia next! Panicking I switch out to Articuno trying to use Mind Reader + Sheer Cold to end it quickly but he has Hydro pump and Articuno couldnt take another one so switching to Mew is the next option. He continues to hammer out Hydro pumps and Spacal rends and I heal until he finally switches to Earth Power. I also healed Articuno while having the chance. After plenty of Psychics Palkia goes down.

Next comes Probopass and this one easily falls to Torterra.

Dialga makes his appearence. Keeping Torterra in I go for Earthquake and he goes for Flash Cannon. Dialga hits the halfway point of his hp. And I can clearly take another Flash Cannon. Joking, I wondered about his signature move and in that instant the screen lights up as the Text Roar if Time appears. Its almost as uf his hp dissapeared immediately for Torterra my starter was gone. : ( Thankfully Lucario comes in and quickly avenges him and Dialga falls.

He goes for Honchkrow next but enraged, Articuno faints him with Ice beam.

His last mon Magnezone thinks itll do something as well before Lucario sends him flying with Close combat.

The fight was finally over and Cyrus takes his leave.

After his defeat I decide to capture Giratina as I really need him. I tried doing it usual way but after so many balls had been thrown I simply just threw my master ball.

The Team Galactic part is at the end.

- Decided to go legend hunting a bit afterward. Picked up Suicune, The 3 lake guardians, and tried for Raikou but Mew thought it was funny to hit him with a critical so that didnt happen.

- I add a Bidoof to my team but he faints during training.

- Added Vileplume to team to replace someone. : (

- Added Pikachu evolved it and then it fell after a Thunderbolt left one hp on Feraligatr and one shot me with Waterfall.

- Caught Ampharos on Route 222

- Added Giratina (too bad no Griseous Orb)

- Added Ampharos to the team.

- Currently in Sunnyshore city for the last badge.

Alright so I took on the gym with the earlier team from the other update and here's what happened...

Volkner

Spoiler Alert.

Spoiler:

Jolteon/Lv. 79

Raichu/Lv. 79

Rotom-Wash/Lv. 79

Luxray/Lv. 80

Electivire/Lv. 80

Zapdos/Lv. 81

This battle wasn't too difficult he sent out Jolteon first and I used Light screen immediately with Ampharos. After chipping away at him power gem one Focus blast finished him off.

Rotom pops out next, sadly it turns out that his has Levitate and Giratina's Earth Power is useless. So its back to Ampharos and Hydro pump is hitting like a truck luckily he goes for substitute and the chance to use another light screen comes. After one discharge Rotom's substitute breaks and a few more Rotom's out to.

Luxray comes out next, for whatever reason it keeps spamming Volt Tackle (guess it had nothing else) lots of back and forth hits and another screen set up Luxray falls.

Volkner sends out Electivire, this one is a problem because even though Giratina is really defensive and has Earth power he keeps freezing and getting critical hits with super effective Ice punches. -___- After finally getting one or two turns Earth power easily takes care of him.

Lastly he sends out to my surprise a Zapdos. On the bright side his had nothing to touch Giratina with except for fly. So one good Shadow Force after he flew and the battle was over. No losses.

- Started making my way to Victory road.
- Got Rhydon out of box and taught Mew Waterfall.
- The swimmers were mostly easy thanks to Ampharos and Vileplume.
- Once arriving to the to center at the Victory Road entrance there was a man who gives you all the best battle items you could hope for.....focus sashes, choice items, stat boosting berries everything.

- Lost Vileplume to an Ace Trainer who Critical Ice punched her with a Dusknoir.

Lost Giratina to a Dragon Tamer who had Salamence with 2 Dragon Dances up.
- A second Dragon Tamer took out the Rhyperior I had caught on this Road (and was Vileplume's replacement) with a Dragon Dance Dragonite. And all because he missed Stone edge.

- The same trainer also has a Salamence who takes out more of my team. Ampharos and Mew both go down.

- I make it to the Pokemon league. There's a man there who gives you 6+ of every Tm so hopefully that helps. Dont have many pokes I can use against the E4 left.

- Tried catching Entei but he struggled to death.
- Tried catching Latios but he usd Memento.
- Caught Latias so thats a win.
- Might try catching Mewtwo.
- Redid the team again.

- Going to try beating my Rival and the E4 comes next.

Begining of the Elite 4....not really the Rival interrupts everything first.

Spoiler:

Barry

Spoiler Alert.
Swellow/Lv. 83

Feraligatr/Lv. 83

Sceptile/Lv. 84

Scizor/Lv. 84

Salamence/Lv. 85

Infernape/Lv. 86

Barry was pretty easy I think. The first thing he tried doing was spamming double teams with Swellow and got taken out by Azelf and 1 Nasty Plot+Psychic.

Scizor comes out and Azelf takes out another with Flamethrower.

Feraligatr gets blasted by an Energy Ball and goes down.

After the majority of his team gets one shotted Sceptile lands one Night Slash since he's faster. But still another Flamethrower is another one gone.

Salamence was a problem I had to switch to Articuno. He goes for fly surprisingly. Turns out he had a Yache berry which let him take the hit. Articuno's at half and I thought he would do what most ingame trainers do and heal but instead........Outrage. A complete miracle that Articuno lives. I switch out to Lucario, he takes the next hit and Salamence is down to ExtremeSpeed.

His last mon Infernape is out against my Latias and one last Psychic is enough.
On to the final battles.....

And then.........

Spoiler:

This is it the end of the run. No more team replacements if anything goes down. Only healing if possible. I made sure to buy as many Hyper Potions, Full Restores, and even X items just for this since there's no leaving.

Here goes....(putting all the battles in this one update)

Spoiler:

Elite 4 Aaron

Yanmega/Lv. 85

Scizor/Lv. 85

Vespiquen/Lv. 85

Heracross/Lv. 86

Ariados/Lv. 86

Drapion/Lv. 87

This battle was a little difficult. First Aaron sends out Yanmega while I go with Articuno. One Ice beam should have been enough but he has a Focus Sash so he takes it. Instead of healing afterwards he switches to Scizor.

Scizor goes for Iron Head as I switch in to Suicune to resist it. After a Calm Mind and taking multiple hits from his X- Scissor Suicune ends the battle with a Surf.

Drapion's out next. Honestly I would have stayed in with Suicune but the X-Scissors and Cross Poisons were too much and it had to get out. Umbreon's in and even though X-Scissors super effective. Umbreon is literally just eating them all. Took the time to use two double teams and no more hits were landing. Also managed to heal everyone else. Switched back into Suicune and another Calm mind+Surf Combo takes him out.
I notice that he's sending out Heracross so I go to Azelf and Hera's out with one Psychic.

Finally Yanmega returns, and Articuno is back once more. He tries playing with Double Team and the misses begin. Then I remembered Mind Reader...Articuno locks on to him and Ice beam finishes him.

Ariados vs Suicunie went plently quickly. And lastly Vespiquen comes out and Calm Mind+Ice Beam is enough for the the end.

Moving on......

Spoiler:

Elite 4 Bertha

Hippowdon/Lv. 86

Gliscor/Lv. 86

Swampert/Lv. 86

Golem/Lv. 87

Rhyperior/Lv. 87

Groudon/Lv. 88

Coming face to face with the mon who wiped out the first Gyarados was fun. Set up 2 Calm Minds while it spammed Earthquake and let the magic happen Hippowdon never had a chance against my surf......at least since there were no crits from the other side.

Gliscor came in and suffred the an identical fate except it was an Ice Beam that did it.

Golem out. Looks like she planned cause Golem had a Passho Berry. Then one of my greatest fears, a crit thunderpunch! > : ( Good thing Suicune lives again. Healed up one last surf does it again.

Big sursprise here......she sends out Groudon and I honestly start getting scared. Turns out it too has Thunderpunch. But luckily its not as a bad as Golem. One succesful Ice Beam connects and a legend falls.....granted it was a legend vs legend but whatever.

She sends out Swampert and not surprised he has Rindo Berry which makes Azelf's Energy need two hits but the results are the same and Im safe.

Rhyperior is out last while I switch to Umbreon since I figure there's probably another....either Rindo or Passho berry. And try the Double Teaming trick again. I manage to toxic and heal the others but then she lands a Megahorn and Umbreon is lost.......to a crit.

Not carring about any berries and being very frustrated afterward, Azelf wins the match with one final Energy ball.

Up next.

Spoiler:

Elite 4 Flint

Houndoom/Lv. 87

Flareon/Lv. 87

Infernape/Lv. 87

Ninetails/Lv. 88

Magmortar/Lv. 88

Ho-oh/Lv. 89

Considering that Flint was all about Fire types Suicune was the best lead ever. He sends out Houndoom first which honestly gets taken down immediately by a surf only getting a little damage off.

Infernape next, he goes to a Psychic from Latias.

Sends out Flareon and burns Latias with Willo wisp and starts spamming Strength but still no troubles and Psychic takes another.

Ninetails turned out to be a problem since it happens to have Ghost as its second typing. After one Surf from Suicune I tried using Extremespeed and passed right through her. It wasn't until after I could heal that 2 Surfs did the trick.

Magmortar lands a a critical hit with Thunderbolt but luckily Suicune was almost at full health when it happened. A heal and another 2 Surfs takes down Mags.

And a trend begins. Another legendary rears its head in. This time Ho-oh appears and causes panic with his multiple Brave Birds, it becomes a struggle to heal and dole out hits. Bright side is by using that move he was slowly weaking himself for a final hit and taking advantage of it worked. Ho-oh was no more. : )

Hanging on......

Spoiler:

Elite 4 Lucian

Gardevoir/Lv. 88

Espeon/Lv. 88

Bronzong/Lv. 88

Alakazam/Lv. 89

Gallade/Lv. 89

Lugia/Lv. 90

Lucian......just before the battle I delete energy ball off Azelf and replace it with shadow ball just for this.

This battle starts off pretty nicely honestly. I have Latias vs Gardevoir and with the Soul Dew things should go well I think. First Dragon Pulse lands a crit on her. She retaliates with shadow ball and lowers my defense. No matter.....I go for another and only gets her to half. She throws another ball and crits me in return.......only Latias gets obilterated. : ( Trying to pay her back I send in Suicune to Extremespeed and she falls.

Lucian sends out Gallade this time as I use Azelf. He tried setting Swords Dance but I wasn't going to let that happen again and spam Shadow Ball until he drops.

Espeon pops out and tries setting up Calm Minds and I do the same with Suicune to take the damage when she finally makes a move. I do get Espeon to a little below half before another Critical shuts Suicune down for good..........> : ( Thankfully Lucario's Extremespeed is enough to end it before anything else was lost.

Next up Alakazam. Honestly think the Ai derped cause as I was getting scared of all the Calm Minds being used he never attacks my Azelf once.....I just whittled it away with Shadow Balls.

Finally Lucuan's Legend appears this time being Ho-oh's opposite Lugia. I didn't even blink I knew that I needed to use Mind Reader and Sheer Cold before it tried anything cause it is a pain trying to faint him. After a scary thunderbolt which did less than expected the One hit Ko technique does It again and Lugia is Frozen and fainted.

I thought it was over but Bronzong was still left. It tried setting up as well and Nasty Plot Azelf comes through at the end. Lucian will never be forgiven. -_____-

THE END is here....

Spoiler:

Champion Cynthia

Only 3 mons left against all this?........D : Just to be safe I made sure the whole team had Focus Sash's at this point.

Spiritomb/Lv. 89

Lapras/Lv. 89

Blaziken/Lv. 89

Metagross/Lv. 90

Garchomp/Lv. 90

Arceus Sky Plate/Lv. 91

The final battle begins. I haven't felt tense in a battle like this for awhile. Its Articuno out first against Spiritomb. I go for an Ice Beam to see how much damage could be done. Spiritomb shakes it off like nothing and uses.....Nasty Plot. With one Mind Reader left I use the One hit Ko Sheer Cold again and watches as he faints.

Blaziken makes his move. But Azelf is there to counter him. I set up a Nasty Plot as he goes for Flare Blitz. Not even using the Focus sash Azelf lives with 40 hp and blows Blaziken away with one Psychic.

Oh my goodness...... I read the text of how she is going to send out ARCEUS!!! All I can do is stare blankly at screen for a full minute before thinking of what to do next. Even after taking Flare Blitz I stayed in with Azelf just to see what type of Arceus this was (due to his type changing with his Plate items). Honestly I couldnt tell which one it was at this point but not caring and thinking the battle was over anyway I switched to Lucario as he goes for Shadow Force. Luckily in this Gen the Steel typing still resisted ghost/dark type moves and crucial for taking the hit that it did. Not knowing what else to do I set up Swords Dance as another Shadow Force takes place. Once again taking it I try being safe and used Rock Slide landing a super effective blow to him and almost downing him. But before I can use another move she sends out Garchomp.
Cynthia sends in Garchomp and more worries begin. This thing has ruined so many battles before but I had to try. First thing it does is take almost half damage from my Extremespeed which was meant for Arceus. Then as she Earthquake's I switched out to Azelf who had Levitate and avoided the blow. Now after losing soo many to this move I knew it was coming. OUTRAGE. Instead of switching to anything else I stayed in and healed Azelf as they began. One Crit would ruin everything but I healed and healed until after like 5 freaking turns he finally gets confused. He hurts himself and Azelf takes him down with a Psychic.

Cynthia returns to her trunp card Arceus as I go to Lucario again. This time I set up another swords dance. She switches her move to the signature Judgment but through a miracle Lucario lives on like 33. I heal once more and the Ai derps and Shadow Forces once more and I take the time to set up another one and after one Extremespeed the ultimate legend goes down. The documention revealed that it was Flying. I only had Rock Slide for Aaron's bugs but turned out it worked helping to take him down.

With only two left she goes for Metagross next. Honestly no switching could be done. Switching could end it all with a loss. So Lucario goes right in with its boosts and Eliminate's Metagross.

Her last is Lapras which I knew couldnt take the hit and one last Close Combat wins the Championship.

I'm.......seriously surprised I made it. XD But the Hall of Fame was here. :)

Lotad battled againstba wild Mankey and accidently activated Mankey's anger point ability by getting a crit which gave it a full boost in Atk. 0___0 Thinking I could still Ko it I went in for another attack. Mankey goes for Low kick and I laugh seeing how light Lotad is.....that was before I noticed the critical hit text and Lotad was down. The list begins.

- Grinded both Tepig and Patrat to levels 14 and 13.
- Third encounter on Floccessy Ranch is an annoying Houndour who almost took down Patrat and poisoned everyone with smog. Couldn't catch it. Just kept popping out until I ran. : (

- The real Rival match....

Mincinno/Lv. 12

Buneary/Lv. 12

Munchlax/Lv. 14

Battle started off well. Landed a good Sand Attack with Patrat after Mincinno missed a Sing. Next thing he shows is that he had swift so everything was pointless. Cheren starts abusing the move Work Up a bit, I tried to ko it quickly but before I knew it I was heal spamming. Sadly I didn"t have enough potions to outlast and had to let Patrat fall. : ( I come in with Tepig next and immediately he crits me with another Swift before I take it down finally with Flame Charge.

Buneary's out next and after healing more Work Ups begin. This time 2 Flame Charges do the trick.

Cheren's Ace Munchlax appears, I tried to set up a few defense curls and it looked like it would work but then.........once again a critical hit from a Rock Tomb silences Tepig. The battle was over and the Locke was loss as I wasn't able to collect any other mons. : (

Thinking about restarting this and grinding to a much higher level to avoid this next time.....

- Had the obiligatory Rival Match
- Got the Running Shoes
- Bought a bunch of potions
- Got bicycle just before getting to Route 19
- Caught my first encounter is a Lv 5 Patrat on Route 19
- Met Alder
- Caught my second encounter on Route 20, this time being Lv 4 Lotad. I tried leveling my current team. Lotad battled againstba wild Mankey and accidently activated Mankey's anger point ability by getting a crit which gave it a full boost in Atk. 0___0 Thinking I could still Ko it I went in for another attack. Mankey goes for Low kick and I laugh seeing how light Lotad is.....that was before I noticed the critical hit text and Lotad was down. The list begins.

- Grinded both Tepig and Patrat to levels 14 and 13.
- Third encounter on Floccessy Ranch is an annoying Houndour who almost took down Patrat and poisoned everyone with smog. Couldn't catch it. Just kept popping out until I ran. : (

- The real Rival match....

Rival #1

Tailow/Lv. 9

Oshawott/Lv. 11

Very easy battle after all the all the grinding. Other than a slight close call Patrat was able to take both his mons alone with Tackle and Bite.

- Found a random Quick Claw sitting in the grass : )
- Recieved the Exp Share from the Rival

Mincinno/Lv. 12

Buneary/Lv. 12

Munchlax/Lv. 14

Battle started off well. Landed a good Sand Attack with Patrat after Mincinno missed a Sing. Next thing he shows is that he had swift so everything was pointless. Cheren starts abusing the move Work Up a bit, I tried to ko it quickly but before I knew it I was heal spamming. Sadly I didn"t have enough potions to outlast and had to let Patrat fall. : ( I come in with Tepig next and immediately he crits me with another Swift before I take it down finally with Flame Charge.

Buneary's out next and after healing more Work Ups begin. This time 2 Flame Charges do the trick.

Cheren's Ace Munchlax appears, I tried to set up a few defense curls and it looked like it would work but then.........once again a critical hit from a Rock Tomb silences Tepig. The battle was over and the Locke was loss as I wasn't able to collect any other mons. : (

Minccino/Lv. 12

Lilipup/Lv. 12

Pidove/Lv. 12

Buneary/Lv. 12

Teddiursa/Lv. 12

Munchlax/Lv. 14

After overleveling Cheren wasn't a problem this time around. The acursed Minccino returns and gets blasted in the face by a Revenge Water Pulse by Psyduck. Almost goes down immediately but hangs on by a thread. After healing, he literally tries setting up Work again but goes down after a second Pulse.

Cheren sends out Lilipup and it goes down in one Pulse.

Honestly everyone after gets blown back by Water Pulse except Teddiursa who tanks one but a follow up makes it share thevsame fate.

Lastly the previous Locke ender Munchlax shows up....it had to be Pignite who goes in on this one. Just like before I use defense curl, considering the levels not even a crit would matter at this point. I decide to use Flame Charge but the damage isn't enough (must be Thick Fat). After seeing how that went I wanted finish off in revenge by making use of Defense Curl so after using it again I followed it up with Rollout and Squashed him. : )

The battle was over!

- After everything was over I made sure to give Pignite the Tm reward that Cheren shared.
- Cleared the rest of the trainers on Route 20.
- Received a gift Cyndaquil in Virbank City.
- Caught a Magnemite in Virbank Complex after Double battle grass. I might have gone for the Growlithe but I had 2 fire types already so I had to let it go...
- Bout to head into the next gym.

Trubbish/Lv. 19

Koffing/Lv. 19

Croagunk/Lv. 19

Golbat/Lv. 19

Seviper/Lv. 19

Whirlipede/Lv. 21

Roxie sends out Trubbish and quickly goes for Toxic Spikes. Psyduck was my first choice so confusion had to be the first move. It's one shot but Psyduck still gets hurt do Trubbish's Artermath.

Croagunk comes out next slaps Psy with Fake Out powered up by a normal gem good thing the hit wasn't that bad and only chipped me some more. Trying to heal back up Croagunk almost takes a life Drain Punch but Psyduck holds on. After getting back to a decent amount of health another one shot this time to Croagunk from a confusion.

Here comes Koffing the Mvp. Thinking that another confusion can do the trick but Koffing literally eats it strikes back with a msssive Thunderbolt. 0___0 Once again Psyduck's in danger. I kept trying to heal but could nothing was working. I decided that even though they were knew Magnemite would be the next switch in to save Psyduck. It works, Magnemite easily shakes off a ThunderBolt. Managing to both confuse and paralyze Koffing with T wave and Supersonic the battle looks up once more. But Koffing ignores both and it's next move.......Flamethrower permanently blows Magnemite away. : ( Here's the best part from the grave Magnemite helpsbas Koffing gets paralyzed 3 times in a row but does get off a Toxic+VenoShock but still it was enough for me to power up with Pignite's Work Up and Flame Charge and it goes down.

She sends out Golbat and the first move I use is Rollout while Golbat sets up Nasty Plot the second Rollout connects and Golbat is gone.

Seviper might have gone down in one hit but sadly the 3rd one misses. But 2 Flame Charges puts does the job.

Her final mon Whirlipede tries taking Pignite down with Venoshock but he takes it and Flame Charges to victory. : )

- Puts Magnemite away in the D-Box. : (
- Had to go through PokeStar Studios
- Don't think I found any useful items in the area
- Had my first Team Plasma battle
- Recieved Cut
- Made it to Castelia City

- First person there gave me a Shiny Charm
- Did plenty of exploring
- Picked up an Amulet Coin, some Tms, another Exp Share, anothrr starter mon this time being Mudkip
- Caught a Darumaka on Route 4.
- Put Psyduck In Storage.

- Here's a funny part about this visit. Turns out you can visit Liberty Garden and catch Victini here. So I made way to go catch this legend. I led with Watchog and after first throwing a quick ball and watching it fail I started to hack away with Cut to weaken it. All I had to do was land Hypnosis and I have a free powerful poke......but I miss......clicked and hit CRUNCH instead. D : Just like that I failed to catch the "Victory" Pokemon.

- Collected more items like the Scope Lens
- Was gifted another Starter this time being a Bulbasaur
- Thanks to Rival tagging along in Castelia sewers I was able to choose between 2 mons in the encounter. Also thanks to him the Wild Gastly was cut down by Dewott so Trubbish it was in the end
- Not feeling ready for more trainer battles I needed to train
- There's a trainer on Route 4 who has a Togepi and Happiny, she battles you every time you leave and comeback so it (and speed up) was perfect for grinding more levels. : )
- Love that there were so many Vending Machines around, wound up with 80+ Lemonades
- Sadly there weren't any full heals available but the Casteliacones are a perfect replacement

- Finally after all the preparation we made way into the sewers and Team Plasma was easily dealt with due to more overleveling XD
- Met Colress
- Got Strength
- Caught a Woobat in Relic Passage
- The gym was next

- Cleared all the regular the trainers thanks to Emboar. Then there's Burgh

- Battle Burgh

Leader Burgh

Accelgor/Lv. 27

Masquerain/Lv. 27

Scyther/Lv. 27

Vespiquen/Lv. 27

Escavalier/Lv. 27

Leavanny/Lv. 29

Was really hoping that we steamroll the leader just like the rest of the gym since it's nothing but bugs but Burgh is trouble. He leads with Accelgor and makes things harder immediately by having Rain Dance of all moves, Pignite's fire is nerfed. : ( But one Strength is enough after taking a Focus Blast.

His second mon Masquerain is out and I'm using Marshstomp, apparently his has Intimidate so another nerfing. D : I go for Strength and Surprise....he has GIGA DRAIN a 4x move! Yet somehow Marshstomp lives just barely. Im panicked and the danger music isn't helping. 0__0 I switch to Watchog next thinking one Return should send it away. But again a miss click occurs this time being Cut instead of Return. Good chip damage but not needed, a succesful Return after tanking a Scald another bug goes down.

I think the rain finally stopped around this time. He sends his Ace Leavanny out earlier and Pignite is ready to go again. Leavanny outspeeds and uses Aerial Ace cutting me down more. But Flame Charge should end it......Focus Sash it has. But thanks to the speed boost a second one takes out his Ace.
Then Scyther appears and gets downed quickly by 2 Strengths (Eviolite).

This one....Escavalier. I use Flame Charge again but the damage is weakend by his Occa Berry. Escavalier then uses Drill Run that has a high chance to Crit. 0___0 Luckily that doesn't happen but still a shocking moment as Pignite only survives on low amount of hp. A second Charge puts him away.

Lastly he sends out Vespiquen and not wanting to risk my starter I switched back to Marshstomp who was healed earlier and One shots her with Strength and the battle is over. : )


- After winning I made sure to evolve Pignite with a rare candy as he was just under the correct level (too bad he couldn't hit 35 before the fight but whatever).

- Currently fightning and grinding against Wattson in Castelia (all the Hoenn leaders are popping up in this game).

- During training with Flannery I wanted to train Munchlax on his own. While out against her Camerupt he exploded...Munchlax lived but thanks to being Willowisped earlier that extra burn took him out. x___x
- After that it was time to head back to face Elesa.

Leader Elesa

Emolga/Lv. 36

Lanturn/Lv. 36

Luxray/Lv. 36

Ampharos/Lv. 36

Galvantula/Lv. 36

Zebstrika/Lv. 38

This part was stupid but in the beginning I used Venusaur against her Emolga thinking it had nothing but a flying gem boosted Acrobatics made my hp vanish. Swampert avenged him though with Strength.

She's about to send out Galvantula (and Im guessing it has a grass move) so the next choice is Emboar. One Flame charge revealed that it had Focus Sash and went for Thunderwave. -__- A few healings later and it worked without fail the next time with a nice speed boost.

Hoping for another one shot thanks to speed boost I stayed in when Lanturn comes out, thanks to it holding the Air Balloon Earthquake is useless and nothing else would work so another switch was made. : / Lanturn uses and lands a mighty Hydro Pump after getting back out into Swampert. 0__0 Overleveling strikes again and Swampert takes it. Lanturn uses confuse ray and a bunch healing shenangins goes on before popping his Air Balloon and finishing him off with Bulldoze.

Ampharos gets a Focus Blast off but another Bulldoze and he's out to.

She's about to send Zebstrika her against a Swampert for some crazy reason. XD I switched to Emboar and Earthquaked it.

Her last mon is Luxray and surprisingly even with Intimidate a Bulldoze from Swampert makes the hp goes to zero. Only one loss here thankfully.
.

- Caught a Swablu on Driftveil bridge.

- Arrived in Driftveil City
- Was able to start buying Moomoo milks, in this game you can also buy stuff like Heart Scales or Red Shards for the Move Tutors/Relearners in the City
- Caught Bonsly on Route 6. After getting it to remember Mimic I had a Sturdy Sudowoodo.
- Also caught a Foongus on the same Route hidden as a Pokeball
- Went all the way to ChargeStone Cave, can't recall what I lost but in that encounter I accidently one hit ko'd it.
- Received a Zorua from the Ex team Plasma members
- More training was done. Also took out a Cacnea and gave it training, evolved it and moves tutored.
- Tried fightning Norman who happened to be in the City almost got swept away thanks to his Slaking. 0___0
- After collecting everything I could I went to the gym
- Thanks to a glitch (I think) the whole gym was visible so getting to Clay was easy. Still fought all the trainers anyways.
- Clay was next

Leader Clay

Hippowdon/Lv. 43

Nidoking/Lv. 43

Golurk/Lv. 43

Krookodile/Lv. 43

Seismitoad/Lv. 43

Excadrill/Lv. 45

Clay.......sigh.

Hippowdon's out first against my Swampert. Thanks to being Gen 5 weather lasts forever so we're stuck in a permanent Sandstorm. -___- One Muddy Water ends up doing half so another one should do it......he switches to Seismitoad and soaks up the hit with Water Absorb.

With Seismitoad I honestly thought I could switch into Cacturne and take it down but I found out the hard way that the leaders have a plan for everything. A sludge wave to the face takes out Cacturne. : ( Back out to Swampert and by now I finally have Earthquake, I think it took 2 for it go down.

Golurk was his next choice but Muddy Water ended it before it became a problem.

Nidoking fell to an Earthquake pretty quickly as well.

His Krookodile took 2 Muddy Waters but in the end another triump.

Hippowdon returns for Round 2 but instead of risking a miss with Muddy Water I finished it off Earthquake.

For the first time in while the Ace comes last and it really is his.....ACE. I would have used Earthquake on Excadrill just like before but he's floating in the air with an Air Balloon. Swords dance.......after bad luck missing a M-water. Panic and fear.....I tried putting it to sleep with yawn he goes for EQ and it barely misses taking me out. 0___0 Good thing he falls asleep next turn. I switched out to Swoobat at least trying to bust the balloon....it worked but.....he woke up and obiliterated Swoobat with freaking Rock Slide. X___X I had healed Swampert during the attempt and tried yawn again. He goes for a SECOND SWORDS DANCE!!! This time I switched to Sudowoodo and thanks to Sturdy he lives on 1hp. Hoping he wouldn't wake up again I went back to Swampert one final time and clicked Earthquake the Rng was with me and Excadrill fell.

Only two losses somehow, Ive heard that Clay is called a locke ender so I guess I should be happy but Cacturne and Swoobat. : (


- Made way for the PWT.

- This part doesn't really need to be put in since it was easy. Everyone I fought here had their levels brought down to level 25 in the PWT. So it was beyond unfair and Im not sure I would count this as part of the challenge anyways.

- Dealt with more Team Plasma related stuff and was finally able to start heading for Driftveil City
- Caught an Unown and Volcarona after exploring in Relic Castle
- Caught a Tornadus on Route 6 next Cobalion's cave.
- Went to a few Hidden Grottos and caught a Combusken in one of them
- Caught a Pineco on Route 16.
- After getting through Chargestone cave I received a Master Ball. Headed back to Nimbasa and used it on Meloetta after a short battle.

- I think that covers everything......I gave some moves to Meloetta and Tornadus. Yeah that's it for now.

In this battle I can't describe everything that happened in details. The game decided to pull a triple battle out of nowhere. I suck at these so it went horribly bad and I lost two Pokemon. The first being Sudowoodo and the second being the Foongus I was trying to train up. Now pointless. < : ( All this could have been avoided if I had noticed the shift option........in trying to keep Emboar from being fainted lots of uneeded switching happened. Hoping avoid triples from now on.

- Not sure if I already mentioned Route 7, think I might have lost the encounter...
- Arrived in Lentimas after a plane ride.
- Other than finding another Move Tutor not sure if there was anything worth noting here.
- Caught Grumpig on Reversal Mountain
- Lost what could have been a great later addition in Duosin at The Strange House. But the newly aquired Grumpig declined and got a knockout. x___x

- Darkrai was there. May return later.
- Made it to Undella Town.
- Caught a Mantyke in Undella Bay.
- Caught a Absol on Route 14
- Fought my rival, another battle not worth mentioning. My main 3 mons took care of him too easily.
- On route 13 I noticed double battle grass and and found a ????(can't remember the left one) and the other is Tangela. Thinking this would be a great replacement after Venusaur/Foongus I fainted the other and began trying to catch it. I thought yawning it with Swampert would work but suddenly he uses Giga Drain. Im literally 20+ levels above and somehow someway he takes me out. >>>>> : ( Even after being mad I still needed it anyways so I did and added to the team and evolved/trained it.
- Cobalion was also on this Route so I tried catching it as well. Before I noticed how many Sword dances had been used I watched as Meloetta had been Ko'd by Sacred Sword. : ( The Absol I HAD JUST caught had the same fate.......I couldn't lose anything else so running was the only option....

- Arrived in Lacunosa
- Re-added Psyduck and trained it to the current levels. Added Yanmask trained/evolved it.
- Fought Team Plasma in a double battle with my Rival. Lost the Grumpig I had caught.....
- Route 12 another double encounter. I think left was Swellow and right Heracross. Choosing Heracross resulted in another loss thanks to him getting a crit Megahorn......ugh. Still caught it anyways and did the same for the murdering Tangela and made it part of the team.

- Caught a Bibarel under the Village Bridge
- Lost whatever was on Route 11
- But Virizion showed up after so I went to catch this one (even though stupid stuff happened with its friendo earlier). Probably a bad idea to use Golduck but I wanted to put it to sleep. This backfired because more Swords Dance crap happened once more. Golduck goes down. The best thing happened next I used Cofagrigus. This thing is Ghost/Steel, Virizon could do nothing and after a lengthly battle I had a new legendary. : ) But still Golduck was gone.....replaced with Bibarel this time.

- Made it Opelucid
- Somehow lost my Cofagrigus to Altaria in the gym which is funny cause he would have been perfect for all these Dragon types.
- Bonus, a freaking Fraxure takes out my starter with an Outrage. Emboar....goes down to a non fully evolved pokemon with Outrage. All these battles and hits but this is what does it. Not even a critically hit......sigh.

- Remodeled my team completely and faced Drayden.

Druddigon/Lv. 58

Altaria/Lv. 58

Flygon/Lv. 58

Hydreigon/Lv. 58

Salamence/Lv. 58

Haxorus/Lv. 60

Druddigon sets up Stealth Rocks and Paralyzes my Virizion with Glare, managed to do good damage though. Dragon Tails her out and Bibarel is next. Bibarel has Moody so I got a speed boost and a Return knocks it out.

He sends out Haxorus earlier...now thanks to preparing and luck I used Gengar who had Hypnosis and Icy Wind along with Wide lens for a better landing chance. It worked!!! Haxorus went down.

Sends out Altaria who has Yache berry but it matters not Icy Wind does it again after 2.

Sends out Flygon, Ko'd immediately. Salamence goes out the same way as well.

His last mon is Hydreigon. The stealth rocks really messed up Volcarona but being faster made the problem pointless. He goes down to a Bug Buzz. This battle was won. Normally I dislike Gengar but he was the Mvp of this.

Getting ready to fight Team Plasma I think.

Pokemon Moon: Update 1

Spoiler:

2/22/2017
We're finally in Alola! The pokemon here are so different from the pokemon in the Kanto region, especially Meowth, the contrast is huge. I was reading a magazine earlier and read about this lady named Lusamine. She has really pretty eyes and her hair reminds me of Jesse from the Kanto region, the one who always chased Ash and his Pikachu around. (I hear he's in Alola too)

2/23/2017
Mom just had Meowth wake me up to unpack for some reason. It's pretty late but I can't question her. Professor Kukui walked in after I woke up. He seems like a cool guy but doesn't wear a shirt under his lab coat. I wonder if he has a weird tanline because of it.

Kukui said it's time for me to meet the Kahuna and get a Pokemon! I can't wait.

Pikachu is battling grass apparently and Yungoos and Alola Meowth are battling by yelling at each other. Alola is weird.

Kukui said the Kahuna looks just like the Kahuna. Alola is very werid. The girls are pretty though. I just saw a girl walk down the path I was going to walk through. She was talking to her bag so I have to remember not to drink the water here.

A pokemon jumped out her bag, so that explains the talking into the bag, it started getting attacked by spearow so I jumped in to save it, but it ended up saving me, but also putting us both in danger, so island diety Ex Machina and now we're both safe

Either I'm crazy, or she's glowing. Alolan girls are something else. It turns out her name is Lillie and she's Kukui's assistant. Hala is back. Apparently he's one of Alola's strongest trainers so between meeting a legendary pokemon and meeting a super powerful trainer, I'd say it's been an eventful 20 minutes

I finally met my partner. Kaede the Popplio. Here's to many victories and an amazing adventure. Kukui gave me the Pokedex so that's pretty cool too.

Hau's first words to me were "Let's have a battle". This is going to be a wonderful friendship. Kaede ended up beating him pretty easily and going up a level. Hau took the loss in stride.

Hala must have eyes like a Braviary because he saw a stone right through my bag. I don't know if I'm amazed or scared. Nebby escaped from their bag. Something tells me this is going to be a recurring thing

First time meeting my Mom and Kaede asks about a bar, I am ashamed

Kukui showed me how to catch a pokemon. I feel like I've been watching tutorials on how to catch pokemon for 16 or 17 years though

I caught Sam the Pikipek! He and Kaede will form a formidible duo one day I'm sure

Youngester Jimmy sounds a lot like a Alola version of my friend Joey from Johto. He also has an Alolan Ratatta

Naturall Hau has Pichu, who can kill both of my Pokemon easily

We beat Hau! In the name of Tapu Koko

I got met Rotom! He'll be useful

At the trainer school! Time to wreck these kids

I beat two of the kids then decided to rest. It's good to pace yourself always

2/27/2017
It's been an eventful 4 days. I've caught 13 pokemon, but lucky for me (If you can even call it lucky) I've only had four pokemon die.

It was terrible. The first to go was Sam. Sam was in battle against another Pikipek. He came so close to beating it, but it outsped him and killed him with an echoed voice.

Next was Kyrie, the Zubat. Kyrie was battling Butterfre. First turn it used Gust which didn't do much so I assumed I was good to keep Kyrie in. Unfourtunately for me, Assuming makes an ass out of you and me. Kyrie died to a confusion.

Cleopathra was last. She was killed by a Tackle from an SOS Lillipup. This was probably the hardest since she's been with me so long.

However it hasn't been all bad. I've made some new friends along the way. First was Volt the Magnemite. He's been Mister Reliable since day 1. Minnie the Rattata came soon after my first trial. Next was Tiffany the Oricorio. She and Zaya the Fearow, who I met as a Spearow helped me beat Hala easily. Benji was a quick pitstop at Ten Carat Hill for me. Afterwards, Velvet the Mudbray showed me her Stamina. Charterbus the Grubbin and Flake the Wishiwashi both came to me minutes from each other. Most recently I met Tate the Lillipup.

As for my trials, they all went well so far. I just beat Lana and I'm relaxing in the Pokemon Center at on Royal Avenue. The first trial was probably the hardest though. My plan was to paralyze the Raticate and then wittle it down slowly, but Bite kept flinching Volt so that took a while.

Hala was handled easily by Tiffany and Zaya.

Lana was handled by Flake. Flake is going to be a huge part of my team probably.

Next is Kiawe's trial, which I'm about to start soon. I heard he has fire type pokemon so Velvet, Flake, and mainly Kaede will be used a lot probably. I hope I can catch a Cubone at Wela too.
