Part 1 | Part 2

I recently remembered that oh right, I wanted to keep on with the crossposting of this! So here you are. In our last installment, we traveled from Jubilife to Oreburgh, where we learned many interesting facts about coal mining and won our first gym badge. Now we've returned to Jubilife, ready for the next step on our journey.

----

Another evolution catches me by surprise! I am currently training Oreo and Cinnamon so they’ll be around the same level as everyone else.

A handsome boy!

oh uh

Professor Rowan evidently gives no fucks.

At this point I’m imagining the team galactic mook making a face like Yellow Diamond. You know the one.

Rowan would do it himself except, well, he doesn’t care.

Vs. Galactic Grunt and Galactic Grunt Summary:
- Match was a double battle with NPC Lucas on my side and two Galactic Grunts on the other. The opponent’s team consisted of a lvl. 11 Stunky and a lvl. 11 Glameow.
- I sent out Cinnamon and Lucas sent out Turtwig. Cinnamon immediately took out Glameow with mach punch, while Turtwig tackled Stunky.
- Cinnamon then attacked Stunky with mach punch but did not KO Stunky before Stunky was able to poison Turtwig. However, the next turn Cinnamon was able to KO Stunky with a single scratch.

You guys should go have a self-righteous tea party with Team Plasma.

Very scientific of you, Rowan.

Yeah, a random old man I talked to in the Oreburgh Pokemon Center complained about them.

Yep. Stealing sure is considered generally unacceptable by society’s standards, Lucas.

Actually I thought I’d just spend the rest of my trainer career partying in Jubilife yes I’m going to collect the gym badges.

(And there was a bit more dialogue after this but I’m skipping over it.)

lucas and rowan left like 1 second ago

So does Lucas get anything or is he not as photogenic as Gemma?

I believe you mean, TIME TO MAKE MY POKEMON LOOK SILLY~!

WHY IS THE NEWS STATION SPREADING SLANDER ABOUT ME

Isn’t putting a Chimchar mask on a Chimchar- or, well, Monferno now- a little… weird?

A FEW MINUTES LATER…

i think he looks adorable.

Oh yeah, I also got interviewed about the photo I had taken.

What were Gemma’s deep thoughts on the end result?

(It is not Gemma’s fault the game gives you limited options.)

Vs. Aroma Lady Taylor Summary:
- Opponent’s team consisted of a Lvl. 9 Budew and Lvl. 11 Cherubi.
- I opened with Coconut. Budew used the super effective absorb on Coconut, but despite the type disadvantage Coconut KO’d Budew using magnitude.
- Switched to Oreo when opponent brought out Cherubi, KO’d it using wing attack.

Vs. Bug Catcher Brandon Summary:
- Opponent’s team consisted of a Lvl. 10 Wurmple and a Lvl. 11 Kricketot.
- Coconut KO’d both of the opponent’s pokemon using rock throw, and ended the battle by leveling up.

Vs. Twins Liv & Liz Summary:
- Double battle. Opponent’s team consisted of two Lvl. 11 Pachirisu.
- I sent out Artichoke and Yogurt. Artichoke was directed to use stun spore first on Pachirisu A and then on Pachirisu B- however, before he could stun Pachirisu B, they used quick attack against Artichoke and were poisoned by his poison point ability. Meanwhile, Yogurt’s job was to lower the opponent’s defense with leer.
- Once both Pachirisu were inflicted with status conditions- paralysis and poison respectively- Artichoke and Yogurt concentrated on firing off tackles and mega drains. The opponent tried to take them out first with quick attacks, but our team had the bigger advantage.
