I don't know what I've done bad recently, but I'm apparently punishing myself for it. I've just started out with my Dragon-Type challenge.
Current team is a level 13 disobeying Dratini and a level 11 disobeying Mew. My initial reactions are that it sucks a lot to have to return to the pokecenter after every trainer battle and every other wild encounter. Brock has urprisingly easy, however, as the little guy I traded in from Gold came at level 10, and obeyed me fine for the Geodude. Wrap stasis FTW. However, he leveled up after that fight, and it was a team effort to bring down the Onix. As of now, I really have no idea how I intend on beating Misty. Or, for that matter, Jesse and James.
