Ghosts and Mummys and Death - Part 21

A new day brings on a new training session.

It's time for Cowface to get some much needed training. I want to make him a staple in my team.

I run around Route 7 and train the zebra and even find a couple decent TMs Charge Beam and X-Scissor.

I even get a call from my Mom, who is just checking on me.

After training up Cowface a tad I start training Cracker.

Cracker will be a great addition to the team once he evolves so I have him Giga Drain and Ingrain himself through victory after victory...

Until...

During a trainer fight I send out Cracker and have him use Ingrain. I defeat the first Pokémon easily enough, but the second gives me a start. It's a Ducklett and it will give Cracker a spot of trouble. I try to switch out Cracker, but forgot that I can't if I use Ingrain. I watch in sorrow as Cracker nearly defeats the bird, but takes an Air Cutter to the face...

I sadly take my little mushroom and bury it.

I take Catapult to the front and begin to train him. He has some bulk and a decent moveset so he can take care of himself a bit.

While fighting random Pokémon in the grass I get nervous while fighting an Emolga so I switch out Catapult, but he is hit by Pursuit, which is powered up when used on a Pokémon that is switching. It deals a massive blow and...

I'm starting to get a sense of deja vu...

I cry a little and start training up Cowface a little more.

I train Cowface until I reach Twist Mountain, but I cannot go any further.

I decide to train up Odessa a little and then...

He evolves into Cofagrigus! It's a Pokémon design that I both like and dislike, but it's another evolved Pokémon and that means it gets a little stronger as well! I welcome the sarcophagus with open arms (times 4).

I head over to Celestial Tower and get ready to meet up with Skyla. This is a place to bury Pokémon , and full of trainers and ghosts. It's too spooky for many...

I switch in Cowface for more training and I take a few steps deeper into the tower and...

Oh.

Oh you guys.

It's a Pokémon that evolves into one of my all time favorites!

It's a Litwick! I cross off the next nickname off my list and name it Licky. I'm super super excited for this one!

I don't train it because Cowface is the Pokémon that I need to train the most as it will wreck the next gym.

After slipping through the tower, fighting and getting stronger I reach the tippy top, where Skyla is waiting.

I talk to her for a bit and ring the bell and she heads back to the gym, where she is waiting to fight me. I head back down the tower and get a little bit of training under my belt, but not much.

I head to Skyla's hangar and enter her gym...

To fight her next time on Nuzlocke Challenge with Whitemistake!

Ninjas Can Kiss My Lucky Egg - Part 20

I turn on a little background noise, this time it's Jurassic Park 3 on the SyFy channel.

Eesh... I forgot how horrible this movie is...

I head off to the cave, where Clay is waiting for me. The entrance is being blocked by a spiderweb made by Galvantulas. He clears it for me and gives me the TM for Bulldoze.

I'm left alone and head into Chargestone Cave, which is a new area!

I'm excited for a new Pokémon, but first I have to deal with N, because I see him a few steps away. I take a deep breath, ready to fight him, but first a Pokémon appears!

It's an adorable tiny, Joltik! It's an Electric/Bug-type, which is also the smallest Pokémon in existence.

I catch it, use the next name on the list (Bigguns, which is pretty funny) and remember I have to head towards N. As soon as I do ninjas appear.

Yes... ninjas.

N spouts his random nonsense and calls the ninjas the Shadow Triad, calls me the chosen one and then he warns me that there are Team Plasma grunts up ahead. They leave me, but soon I am joined by Juniper and Bianca.

Nothing about what they say matters because... they give me a Lucky Egg.

I love them more than anything now. Bianca and Juniper are my favorites. They gave me an awesome item. An item that will pretty much double the speed at which my Pokémon will level up.

I give them the honor of my attention now and realize that Juniper wants me to find Klink so she can study it. I promise to do my best and head into the cave.

There are lots of trainers and lots of random encounters happening here. I get in some much needed training.

I run into more ninjas as well and they re-remind me of the Team Plasma grunts further inside.

I don't fight everyone here though. I can use some of these trainers for training later on. I'm planning ahead!

I fight Team Plasma left and right and eventually I see N again.

He's blocking the N-trance to Mistralton City. He's blocking... the N... trance.

N challenges me to a battle.

He has four Pokémon.

The first is a Boldore, which is the evolution of what Amasya would have been...

Bigguns goes out first, but is switched with Xanadu. Xanadu takes it out with a couple Rock Smashes.

Next he sends out a Joltik, which is KO'd by a single Crunch.

He sends out a normally dangerous Ferroseed next.

Normally, this is a dangerous Grass/Steel-type, but Xanadu takes it out easily with a Rock Smash.

Klink is N's last Pokémon and it's the one that I had to gather information on for the lovely Professor Juniper.

Xanadu cleans up this last Steel-type and I have defeated N again.

Juniper and Bianca appear after the battle and N and Juniper talk for a bit. N despises Juniper and tells her that he does. After a short yelling match N runs off and Bianca tells me that she is Juniper's bodyguard now.

I run into Mistralton City where a man and lady interrupt me.

The man calls himself Cedric Juniper, Professor Juniper's dad.

He upgrades my Pokédex and introduces me to Skyla, who is the next Gym Leader and a hot-shot pilot.

She says she wants to battle me, but she has to wait because she saw a sick Pokémon on Celestial Tower. She says I can join her if I want and she runs off on her own.

I explore the town and find a TM for Skydrop and not much else.

Route 7 time!

I run into the tall grass and find a...

Zebstrika! The evolution of Yuko! I got Yuko back and stronger than ever! I catch it and call it Cowface, which is the next name on the list.

Post end.
