So I went forward up the cable cart to
face off against Team Aqua. Fighting against Archie's followers I
got the feeling I would make it through alright. But I still was
nervous considering once I went into this fight against Archie, there
was no turning back. I lead off with Sheocka thinking he would
either lead with this water Pokemon or Golbat. Turns out it was
neither, he lead off with his Mighteyna. To play it safe, I
paralyzed it before switching back to Funghiness. Worked out for me
since that hound just kept sand attacking and then used bite once my
Pokemon that resisted dark moves did it's attack, AI fail for the
win. Besides that, the fight went smoothly and I was never in risk
of anyone fainting. Better anti-climatic than to have death I say.
So with team Aqua out of the picture
for now, it's time to head to the next town... wait that means going
through a new route, so I get to catch a new wild Pokemon! …and the
one time I'm prepared to catch a wild Pokemon, it turns out to be
another Numel, so I didn't bother. I'm thinking of applying the
“only catch one Pokemon of a species” since it's pointless to
have to of the same Pokemon and it definatly would feel like I was
replacing a Pokemon if I were to use another Numel or Wishmur if Code
Red or Dubstep were to die.
With that, I make it to Magoniy Town...
I think that's what it's called. On the way there I decided to check
out the hot spring and I was offered a Pokemon egg. Well, I've seen
other Nuzlocke challenges use Pokemon eggs and technically there's no
other Pokemon I can get right in the town so it fits in the standard
Nuzlocke rules “technically” so I decided to get it for now. If
I remember the Pokemon that was in it, I have doubts I'll actually
use it, but I may be surprised. So I guess I'll walk around with it
while I train up my Pokemon for the gym.
During my training I decided to clear
out all the gym trainers in advance for the experience and so I can
assure that I make it to the leader with full health. Also decided
to use PlumpPickl instead of Funghiness since Funghiness will be weak
to the gym. Zip'd also gonna sit this gym out for similar reasons.
I actually managed to get PlumpPickl up to the level of the rest of
the team pretty quickly so I don't have to worry about him slowing
the battle down, despite not planning on using him. The egg hatched
as well, into a Wynaut, as expected. I think I might try using it
for a little bit but first it has to get up to level at the rest of
the team so into the day care it goes. By the way, her name is
Wonda, like Wanda but with an “o” since it evolves into a
Wobbuffet.
So after much preparation, I decided to
take on Flanery. Boy was it the closest match I've had yet. I
couldn't help but look at the levels of Flanery's Pokemon and by
faith I saw that one of her Pokemon had Rock Slide so my orginal plan
of using Hurracane on everything could have had disastrous results if
I kept with it. So I instead put my trust in Code Red to take out
the 2 Slugmas just in case she decided to lead with the one with Rock
Slide. It seem like I was on easy ground when she sent out her
Torkal but the truth was the battle was only getting started.
I thought Code Red could finish the
job, but it kept paralyzing me with body slam and started using
attract. It was a mad swap between Hurracane and Code Red while I
tried to heal the other up. It wasn't going so well, but then I
remember my other Pokemon. After trying to decide who would be able
to take hits the best I decided to go with PlumpPickl to tank the attacks and sacrifice himself for the team, only if needed. So PlumpPickl kept out while
I healed up Code Red and Hurracane it was a long struggle but it came
to the point that I was determine to make sure nobody died in that
fight.
Using PlumpPickl as a wall I drained
the Torkal of all its special attack with its use of Overheat making
switching in even more easy then before. Eventually Hurracane
finished the job and got us a new badge, but I wouldn't of gotten
through the battle without all three of those Pokemon. So
PlumpPickl, Hurracane, and Code Red thank you.
