Well now we know that... Well at least i would've thought that Plasma's continuing the episodes AS he said, and that atleast some legendary fan art would be made... Oh wells then.

Hey guys, I'm back! And I've brought a guest with me! This time, the role of Girl Who's Name We Don't Care About will be played by Guy We Don't Care About! ....err, I mean Mond!


Also, this time I actually have some episodes saved up, so it's not a case of "coming back but only for two episodes then going back on hiatus" again. I'm sticking with my 1-every-2-days schedule though.

Oh yeah, and I won't be going back to the Battle Frontier after all. Half because I just want to finish it sooner rather than later, and half because... I sorta forgot about it. Whoops!



Image
The next Pokemon I need is across a SINGLE little lake, which I should be able to just swim across. But noo, the game forces me to use yet ANOTHER HM slave in my party!

Also, I'm bringing Staravia with me because I don't want to hike all the way back to a Pokecenter afterwords. Meaning I now have a functional team of four!

Image
I don't know WHAT I'd do without being able to fly in this game!

Image
Hey, remember the league?
Remember what ELSE is around here?

That's right, we have to go back though Victory Road AGAIN!

And yes, I could skip bringing Tentacruel if I went through the other side, but I really don't want to just to be able to have a Porygon on my team!

Image
Oh... kay, so maybe I wouldn't quite be able to swim though this lake...

Image
BRACE FOR IMPAC-

Image
Right on cue! Oh Gravelers, at least your sheer level of bastardry is predictable!


Image
Ehh... crap. I did NOT account for having to go up walls!

Image
Why the heck do they even have these in Victory Road anyway? I mean, completely vertical tall walls blocking your only possible route that you can't go around!
Ugh!


Image
So yes, now I have to use THREE HM slaves for this! This bloody Pokemon better be worth all this effort!


Image
I swear all these empty screenshots are necessary for development!

Image
How did I miss this the first time? And considering it was right before the League, it would've been actually useful too!

Image
Oh Fog, how I hate thee! It's one of those things that isn't un-navigateable enough that you feel the need to bring a HM slave, but where it is significant enough that it really pisses you off!


Fortunately I actually DO have a Pokemon that knows Defog this time! Lucky me!

Image
Say hello to the fourth, and last, Stat Trainer!

No really, who are you.

Okay, so there's normally five, but I skipped one. SUCK IT UP!

You know what, never mind.

Image
WHAT A SURPRISE! A stat trainer who wants me to guide her through the area? Totally didn't see this coming!

It's just that I'm really scared of well-lit, roomy places.

Image
I'm still resentful that I don't actually get a choice in the matter.

Not that I'd say No or anything, but it's the thought that counts, right?

Shut up and start walking already. I don't have all day.

Image
To shove or not to shove?

I am now completely resentful.

Image
Yes, yes, someone already told me that at the beginning of the game. Man, talk about a late tutorial!

Image
Oh HEEEEY, a Metang! First one we've seen all game!
Have I mentioned that Metangs are GOD-AWESOMELY AWESOME?

Image
...and possibly PATHETICALLY WEAK?

Hey, don't look at me. All I know is that it looks awesome, is a robot, and evolves into an utter BEAST of a Pokemon!

Image
IT'S A LUCIDOLO!


We can dance if we want to!

We can leave your friends behind!

Image
'Cause your fr- wait, what? Arcanine, why on earth are you using Helping Hand? You're 6 levels higher than me! And an effing Arcanine!

For those who don't know, Helping Hand is a move that skips your go, but boosts your ally's attack by 1.5.


Yeah, it's pretty daisies useless.

Image
I think we all saw this coming.

Do you think I'd tag along with someone like you if I didn't absolutely need to?

Image
I'M COUNTING THAT AS TWO POKEMON!

Well, it is.

Image
Oh hey, MORE boulder-pushing puzzles. Except these ones aren't even remotely difficult. C'mon game, this is post-league territory, I think you can make them a little harder than this!

Image
By using no premonition whatsoever and just using basic attacks?

Image
...or just sending out a horny blanket and a mime.

PSYCHIC MINDS AT WORK!

Not sure if I like the way Mr. Mine is looking at that Shuppet.

Image
I think its about time I started using Roosevelt again, she hasn't had much to do for a while.

Image
Aaaand I forgot that her sole attack is a psychic one.

So maybe there's a reason she hasn't had much to do...

And you dare call me useless.

Image
EXTREEEEME ARCANINE! YEAH!

Image
I still find it incredibly odd that they actually put in a Flying TM that the majority of Pokemon can learn.

IT CONTINUES TO MAKE NO SENSE!

Image
I'm... not entirely sure how this happened. Considering its Roosevelt!


Also, Arcanine seems to have an affinity for dying.

Should've shoved you after all.

Image
...
Oh this is just mean!

Image
Seriously, when did this cave suddenly decide to go all Bronzor on me?!

Image
Oh sure, Helping Hand Arcanine can survive with just losing half its health, but Psyguy goes down like a brick!

Image
Wootinary! Now I can evolve my...
Umm...

Well at least it's pretty to look at!

It's manly purple.

Why the hell does every single stat trainer hate you so much


And yes I realize the hypocrisy in me saying that

It's because Dude has so much swagger that it makes he becomes arrogant and insults the stat trainer.

Yet he is still lovable enough for other trainers to follow him and constantly heal his Pokemon.

I'd like to point out that both Cheryl and Marley both obviously have a MAJOR crush on me!



Yes, me. Not Dude.

Woooaaah! His Pokemon are SO GNARLY, DUDE!

This is like, unreal, bro.


God/Man, I love the pre-battle introductions in this game!

Image
...

I feel like I should be saying something about how we haven't met these Pokemon yet, but... everyone's bloody sick of them already!

Image
EXTREEEME HELPING HAND!

Image
FFFFFFF-

HOW DID THEY KILL BOTH OF US AT ONCE?

For the record, yours fainted first.

Image
Hmm... maybe...

Image
HELLS YES, HE DID!

Image
AHAHAHAHAH! OH MAN, THAT IS WHY I LOVE MAGNET RISE!

Image
...

Okay this is just too easy.



Also, if you haven't noticed already, yes, I am rather rushing through these battles, screenshot wise. Basically, because they're all new Pokemon (for the most part), I feel obliged to show them... but they're not really any interesting.

Image
HAVING TOUGH POKEMON IS THE SECRET TO BEING TOUGH!


WINNING IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS!

Image
Oh. What tough Pokemon you have.


Image
Oh hey, I didn't realise there were Azumarills down here!
IT MUST BE MIIIIIINE!

I don't even want to know.

Image
...
Yes, that's right. I used sleep on the arcanine! Because the thing about Stat Trainers is that they do NOT care about whether or not you want to catch a Pokemon, they'll keep whacking on it anyway!

Man, I just want to get out of this place.

Image
SUCCESS!

Image
Hold on. Azumarill is a rabbit, yet Marill... is a mouse?


Goddamnit game! First you have Azurill that can change gender when it evolves, then it changes species altogether!

Image
[/InJoke]

[/CreepedOut]

Image
Radical! His Pokemon are SO WICKED, MAN!

I love this game!

In his defense, he looks like he's about 80 years old.

Image
Oh hey, a Forretress! One of the most defensive Pokemon in the game to everything that isn't made of Arcanine!

Image
You wheeze... sighs? What?

More importantly, where'd you suddenly get all that hair from?

Image
...
Oh god.

OH GOD, HE'S... ME!

THAT'S... SO.... WICKED!

Image
....was that really all you came here for? A stone?

Oh yeah, sure. Well, would you look at that, we're already through this place. Now move, please.

Image
God. DAMNIT lady! I do not care about you wanting to see a god daisies Pokemon!


Now get out of my way, I have a Shaymin to find!

How am I supposed to get out of your way if you're the one standing between me and the exit?

Image
Aaaand there goes the last Stat Trainer in the entire game. It... it nearly brings a tear to my eye...

Good riddance, you creep.

YEAH, SCREW YOU TOO, YA DELUSIONAL LOSER!





It's just so sad... *sniff*

Image
Oh. Yeah. Really needed that.

I think it really says something when you find a chunk of gold and just think "pah, chump change!"

Image
FREEEEEEDOM!

Ahh, that's another cave out of the way! Now I only have.... three more caves to do!


FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-

Image
FF-A BELLSPROUT!

I AM NO LONGER ANGRY!

Image
I like how the Pokedex actually has the specific shape of a root imprint! Heck, how is anyone meant to recognise that?

Image
HELLS!



YEAH!



BELLSPROUT!

Image
H- wait, didn't I already get one of these?

C'mon game, keep track of what items you've given me already!


Image
And now for a spontaneous change in scenery.

Image
And now we're on an island. Fancy that!

Image
Oh.

Oh wow.

They've finally done it.

They've actually made a Pokemon out of candy floss!

Image
PfffffFFAHAHAHAH! A SEADRA! C'mon, lady, I've beaten the league already. What's a Seadra meant to do - spit on me?

Image
...

FUCKING SEADRA!


Image
Woop! Found a piece of string!

Image
Oh hey, it's Marley... again!

Only, this time, she's been demoted to an NPC. Which is why there's no more Purple for you!

Wait, but I'm not a Stat Trainer anymore, why am I still able to talk to you?

At this point, I've become convinced that you're actually just a figment of my broken, deranged mind!

Oh really now? Heh, looks like all my psychological torture has finally gotten to you! Oh, but I won't be going yet, I still have FAR more planned to d-

Have I mentioned I still wanna bang you?

Leaving!

Image
LOOK OUT! SHE'S ARMED! WITH WORDS!

Image
I hear if you actually move up and touch it instead of staying two meters away, it feels even weirder!

Image
ROCKS DO NOT REFLECT IMAGES, YOU BLOODY GAME!

Image
Huh?



...I think he has a crush on me!

FFFFFFFFF-

When I was edit-clearing them, I accidentally cleared the second-last update instead of one of the copies of the last update!


It's not /completely/ gone, as I still have it up until Marley joined, but.... agh!
