Day 14 - [Video] | [Action] Goldenrod Gym

[babel_hacker]

Yet another badge down!

[Atsuro grin, showing off the Plain Badge to the network.]

I won't bother asking if anyone deal with Whitney's tears...Even if I feel a bit bad for using my stronger Pokemon, since they're rather overleveled and it end up being a curbstomp battle.

[Yeah. He looks a bit thoughtful for a moment.]

While I'm still on, have anyone wonder about the types' advantages and disadvantages? Some of them make sense, like fire burning grass. But there's others that really make you think... Like Psychic over Poison. Would that mean mind over poisonous matter?

I'd like to hear your thoughts on this, if you don't mind.

(OOC: Badge is mod-approved! ♥)

I think it has more to do with the fact that poison requires stealth or sudden movements in order to work. Clairvoyance would avert either, simply by being able to peer into another's mind.

No kiddin'. Like fightin' types bein' weak to Flying types. Ain't that the weirdest junk?

And I got no idea about Psychic types bein' strong against Poison. I mean, if ya poisoned a guy wouldn't that make it real hard to think?

A lot of them do make sense in a way. It gets even more complicated when they have two.

[ and this one found himself in the gym stands. he was taking notes on atsuro's apparent flaws and strengths when it came to pokemon battling... but he figures that saying any of that was kind of useless to say (that's his excuse and he's sticking to it). so, for the time being, he'll just descend to atsuro's level when the battle's over, hands in the sleeve of his haori. ]

How very like you to ask questions like that, Atsuro.

... Maybe psychic attacks does something to a Pokémon's defense to its own poison? [ He's actually been thinking about this from time to time, trying to apply logic to it. ]

Morcheeba! Did she whine a long time?

That's a pretty good question. I never really thought that there's a way for psychics to beat poison.

Maybe being poisoned prevents you from concentrating...? It damages brain tissue...?

[ Basically Watanuki is as clueless as you are, Atsuro. ]
