Me: Onwards to Route 104....after I procrastinate and go on the Internet on my phone. Let me check my emails. Oh. This is interesting. Apparently this person who is always watching me is tracking me and random strangers follow my journey. It says it is promoted by Norman my father. Oooookkkkaaaayyyy. Also, I got some email from this thing.
Dear Natalie,
Sceptile is a disgrace to the Pokéuniverse. If Grovyle evolves into Sceptile, release immediately. Got that?
Sincerely, Grovy<3
Well...Sceptile does look like he's got some...er never mind. If it makes you happy I suppose.
And here is another one.
DEAR NATALIE!!!!!!,
I am you number one biggest fan! If you must do one thing, you have to level at least one Pokémon to L100 before you beat the Elite 4. I know you can do it, I believe in you!!!!
Love, NatalieFan#1
Whatever floats your root beer creeper. But seriously, I have a number one fan? I don't know if I should be freaked out or flattered. But, I shall go on with this! My fans await me! Besides, I cannot have Vommack have a better journey than me.
Now there is a grass section and a beach section...I want to walk on the beach. *walks on the beach*
Person: Hey you, battle me.
*I looked over and saw and saw a Fisherman*
Bring it on.
Fisherman: And now, for my prized collection.
Me: Hahahahahahahaha. Are you the obligatory Magikarp only joke Fisherman.
Fiserman:...one of them.
Me: Are you implying that there is more? Oh man, prepared to get CRUSHED. Ralts, come back. Treecko, go do this easy job.
Fisherman: Haha, you wasted your first turn. Magikarp, use splash!
Fisherman: Your turn.
Me: Your strategy is God-tier.
Fisherman: Really?
Me: No. Treecko use absorb and let's leave.
*We left 30 seconds later*
*As we walked North, we ran into a Wrumple*
Me: Ok, Ralts, come ba
Ralts: Ralts (No)
Me: What are yo
OMG Ralts, you learned a move that causes damage!
*the Wrumple used tackle on Ralts, but Ralts skillfully dodges it*
Ok, let's finish this. Ralts, USE CONFUSION!
*A critical hit! The Wrumple fainted*
Oh yes! Great job Ralts. We are going to have much more fun now!
*And just a little while later*
Me: Climbing up the level ladders fast now. Also, we have reached the Petalburg woods! Oh look at this sign "Welcome to Petalburg Woods. Still not as hellish as Viridian Forest"
....Good luck Vommack.
Me: There's like half a million Shroomish here. How am I going to tell it apart?
Guy: Not that kind of Shroomish.
Me: You lost your drugs.
Guy: ....yes.
Me: Ugh, ok fine. I will help you.
Devon: Eeek! *hides behind me*
Me: Why does he want you?
Devon: Well you see, I owe him some money and
Me: Yeah I get the picture. Welp, I will probably have a huge target on my back from an evil criminal organization, but I suppose I will help you.
Devon: Thanks!
Me: We will see about that.
A Poochyena? Pfft, Ralts you got this. Use Confusion.
*Poochyena uses Confusion on Poochyena. It is a direct hit, but it shakes it off like nothing happened.*
Me: What?
TAG: Kehehe, what a n00b. Dark types are immune to your Psychic types.
Me:...No!
TAG: Yes. Now Poochyena, Tackle that pathetic Ralts.
*Pocheyena tackles Ralts, who gets hit with heavy damage and faints*
Me: NOOOOOO!
TAG: Now draw your last pathetic card.
Me: Huh?
TAG: I mean, now use your last pathetic Pokémon.
Me: *takes a deep breath* Treecko, fight more me!
Treecko: Treecko Tree!
Me: This is a long shot, but that Poochyena is so strong, that we can only win one way. So...Treecko, use Absorb.
Treecko: *uses Absorb at full strength on Poochyena...Critical Hit*
Me: Fantastic! Not only does it drain a decent size amount of his health, but you have regained just enough health that you should survive his next attack.
TAG: Fat chance. Poochyena, tackle again! *the Poochyena hits Treecko leaving HP to 1*
Me: Nrgh. Even if we get another critical hit in Absorb, it will not be enough to survive Poochyena's next attack...Treecko, this is your last move. You either win or lose.
Treecko, use Quick Attack!
*Treecko attacks at blinding speed and....CRITICAL HIT! The Poochyena fainted!
TAG: No! How?
Me: No idea.
TAG: Grr. I am going away, but you have made an enemy of Team Aqua. You shall pay! *leaves*
Devon: Thank you so much Natalie. I owe you one. When I get my metaphorical Shroomish, I will give you some.
Me: Thanks, but no thanks.
Me: Aw shucks, thanks.
Devon: So can you help me sear
Me: Hell no, I am getting out of this forest! *travels North*
OMG, a Pokéball just lying around. Let me just grab it.
This does not look like Ether. WTF is Ether anyways? Just, I am getting out of here. Actually, I just realized I need to heal Ralts. I will check back in when I am out of the Forest
Finally I am out, but geez how long is Route 104 going to go on?
Lady: Hey come here.
*I go over to her*
Lady: I was sent by Norman to give you this.
Lady: It's a Technical Machine or TM. Let your Treecko learn it and it will learn Bullet Seed. But after you use it, it breaks.
Me: I thought I read somewhere that TMs don't break.
Lady: That is Gen 6 only.
Me: THERE IS SIX GENERATIONS OF THIS? Just how?
Lady: Money.
Me: Ah.
So there are some things in the Pokéworld that are never fully understood. One of those is how do TMs work. I found out. I don't want to talk about it.
Ok moving on. Oh, I can see the next city. It is just over this bridge. Sure there will be no more bat
Me: A double battle?
Mia: Yup.
Me: Well this shall be at least marginally more interesting than most other battles so far.
Mia: Come out Seedot!
Tia: You too Lotad!
Me: Wow, this shall be easy. Let's go Treecko and Ralts
Mia and Tia: We are doomed.
Me: Pretty much. Treecko, use Absorb on Lotad.
Me: And Ralts use confusion on Seedot.
Mia and Tia: Meanie.
*I just walked away.*
FINALLY, Rustboro City. With the first gym leader. I think Rock type. Pfft, this shall be incredibly easy then...
