Named myself Miasma, no reason, and moved into Littleroot.
Chose Mudkip and skimmed through the starter stuff, avoiding everything I could up until Petalburg when Wally gave me the PSS.
Traded myself in eggs for everyone on my team except Aron. I can grab him with a mach bike.
Ran around with the eggs until they started hatching. I only want to use a few pokemon to start out, adding more to the team gradually. I resolved that the first two to hatch would be who I ran with.
The first hatch was... Minccino! She's so flurffy and cute, named her Swiffer.
Second hatch... Pinsir! Not bad, not bad. I was struggling with a name, until my brother walked by and suggested a great name. Buggernaught is on the squad.
Backtracked to battle everyone I missed, released Mudkip. Stomped through the forest, training up Swiffer and Buggernaught, saved the nerd guy, turned off XP-Share. Made it to Rustboro.
Explored the city, grabbed items, went north to squeeze a few more levels on before the gym.
Took on Roxanne, and it was... a crazy fight. Minccino and Pinsir are not made to fight Rock-types! But between Buggernaughts Seismic Toss and Swiffers Echoed Voice (And her Nosepass using harden when I had 3hp left, whew) we managed to somehow pull through!
First Badge GET!
Added the next hatched to the team, being Slowpoke! Fortunate, since the next gym is fighting. I was going to name it Pants (Slowking, I could use pants? Movie? Yeah?) but it was female. So in keeping with the movie, I named her Harmony. Disturb her not.
Saved Peeko, visited Mr. Stone, sailed to Dewford.
Grinded in the cave on Dewford to get Harmony up to par, then bee-lined to the gym.
Managed my way through the gym trainers with just Water Gun, and between Harmony and Buggernaughts resistance to fighting, beat Brawly.
Second Badge GET!
Harmony learned Confusion directly after the gym battle. Little late, my buddy.
Grabbed the next hatch, which is Zorua! Named him Gabriel (He is the trickster...) and put him on the squad.
Back to the cave, met the honourable Steven, and all that fun stuff.
Took the ride to Slateport, and there I remain.
