He was changing... evolving into...
Krokorok, he's a little stronger and a little faster. It puts my heart at a little more ease now that I have two Pokémon that can hold their own.
I think that I have the power enough to take on the gym. Xanadu is strong and Conch can even help because it has Limber, which means it cannot be paralyzed.
I head to the gym and I am stopped by N. He said he wants to talk to me for a little bit, so I allow him to talk to me. We head to the Ferris Wheel and he blurts out, without even any build-up, that he is the King of Team Plasma and he was asked personally by Ghetsis to save Pokémon.
He then asks me to battle him, but I have no choice.
He has four Pokémon all from the desert area.
Xanadu is able to take out all of them with a single Dig, until he comes to Darumaka.
For this little guy it takes two hits, but he does hit Xanadu with a Fire Punch.
The last Pokémon that N has is Sigilyph.
This strange guy has caused problems in the past with me, but with all of the Dark-types that I have it is actually very very simply fixed with a hearty Crunch.
N is defeated and tells me that he is going to become the Pokémon Champion and the only way to stop him is take him on as Champion.
N leaves and I'm about to head into the gym, but I get nervous. I decide to use some trainers I kept on the back burner for training now.
I head back to the Desert Resort.
I fight through trainers and get items like Heart Scale, Rawst Berries and a Firestone.
Then as I'm exploring I remember something. There is an extra area with a different name here!
I head into the other area called Relic Castle.
I fight a couple trainers here and the first Pokémon I run into is a Sandile, which I already have so I skip it (as per the rules) and try again...
It's the Ghost with a human face, Yamask. I catch it with no problems and name it with the next name off the list, Odessa.
Now after the training I feel a little safer.
I head back to the gym.
Inside I'm floored by what I see...
It's a Tron-esque Roller Coaster! I ride the shuttle around to fight trainers and make my way to the Gym Leader.
It doesn't take long until I walk up to her and start the battle with Elesa.
She sends out her first of three, and Emolga.
Xanadu is out to counter it's first attack of an Aerial Ace with a Rock Tomb, which lowers its Speed. Xanadu throws another Rock Tomb, but misses and is hit with another Aerial Ace. Again this happens, but the fourth time is the charm and Emolga goes down.
Elesa must have little imagination, because she sends out another Emolga.
Xanadu is too weak to go through all of that again, so I switch him out with Conch.
Conch starts it out with a Fake Out, which is a free hit and then goes back for a Slash, which takes out her second mon.
The third and final Pokémon is always the strongest. She sends out her Zebstrika.
This is what Yuko would've become...
Conch Slashes at him and gets hit by a Spark. Conch winds up for another Slash and... it's a critical hit!
Zebstrika goes down and I took out Elesa!
She gives me a TM for Volt Switch and Bolt Badge!
I guess I'm not so stuck up the creek without a paddle like I thought!
