Pokemon Sapphire, My First Nuzlocke: First water routes and Route 119


So with my new found surf, I begin my surfing adventures by heading towards Dewford. In the process I came across some new routes so meaning more chances to get new wild Pokemon. Though I swear the only two wild Pokemon you can find are Wingull and Tentacool. Considering I already caught a Wingull, that means the only new Pokemon I got was a Tentacool, which isn't all that bad, but I wish there was more wild Pokemon I could get in these waters. I decided to name it Lady Tenti. I forget the reason, but I swear it wasn't just for the pun.

When finally making it to Dewford, I got something I've been looking forward giving to Zip'd for a long time, the TM for Sludge Bomb. At long last, Zip'd finally gets something decent he got STAB (same type attack bonus) from. Continuing onwards just so I can get all the trainers in the water I missed while on the boat, Code Red evolved during that training and learned Rock Slide in the process. So if I'm not mistaken, that means Dubstep is the only one who has yet to be fully evolved. This team is coming along quite nicely.

So I stopped by the sunken ship, but I'm not sure if I want to do it yet. I can't fully explore the place till later anyways but I might be able to at least pick-up some items, money experience from trainers. I eventually decided to go in since I need something to do while rendering videos anyways. Picking up some minor items and batting some trainers later I came across the TM for Ice Beam. Which will be very useful, though I'm going to wait a little bit before teaching it to one of my Pokemon. With a little more trainer training I made full circle over to Slateport and doing so I can head back to Mauvilve City.

I decided to run Wattson's little favor because the reward you get could be real useful. ...of course I derped again and forgot new Mauvilve was a new area so I could catch the first wild Pokemon I saw, if I remembered that. >_> Oh well, at least I already have a electric type on my team. So I did that task and picked up the Thunderbolt TM. Heck, while I'm in a sidequesting mood I'd better take care of that fossil too. So I get that resurrected but what to call this Anorith? After a bit of thought, I decided to call him Lloyd, I believe like the character from the Tales game. I was thinking about knights so I was leaning towards Flynn but I decided to go for Lloyd. I'm honestly not sure if Lloyd even has anything to do with knights in his game, but that's the name.

Well, at least with all my sidequesting out of the way I can move on with the game. So I went back over to Mauvilve and surf over to the right to get to a new route. Fighting trainers along the way, including the interviewers, Zip'd leveled up and finally learned Silver Wind. At long last I have a bug type move. Anyways, wait, new route? New wild Pokemon! After a quick talk with Steven I can head into that grass and get a new Pokemon! And it's another Wingull... I didn't even think they appeared in the grass on this route.

I was gonna talk for a fishman for experience and it turned out that he was the guy that gave me the good rod. It's about time I got a new rod. Too bad I already gave my shot at trying to get a wild Pokemon for this route. Oh well, it'll be good to have since I think I already have all the water Pokemon I can get from surfing and the old rod probably can't get be anything better than Magikarp. Well, might as well head off to the berry master to claim all of the berries. So after that, time to head upwards and with this is a new route with a new chance to hopefully get a new Pokemon and it turns out to be an Oddish. Granted, I don't really need more grass types but it feels like I haven't caught a new Pokemon in a long time so I'll take it. I was able to actually catch it but what to name it. I got it! Tulipnia since it happened to be a girl. Sadly Tulipnia is gonna sit in the box for a very long time now.

So I finally made it to the Weather Institute, fighting all the trainers along the way. There's a bed to rest my Pokemon and my team has well earned that rest. Sadly the place has been taken over by Team Aqua, so I'll have to take care of them later.
