Day 23 - [Video] | [Action] at Azalea

[babel_hacker]

That’s an easy win.

[’sup, Johto and Kanto. How are you this fine day. Well, other than that random hail last Tuesday. God, what’s with that random hail in the middle of spring.

Anyway, this is Atsuro in front of the Azalea Gym. Holding the Hive Badge in his hand, with his large Arcanine sitting next to him.]

Then again, that’s what I get for solo-ing Bugsy with Pascal.

[Pascal give his trainer a look. C’mon, Atsuro, he want a good challenge.]

So that means I got all eight badges in Johto! Here’s hoping Kanto will give me a better challenge. I think most of my team are getting edgy from the lack of good challenges.

...Huh, I got all eight badges in less than a year. With all that time passing, I guess it’s pretty normal here.

[Oh yeah, he’s been here for almost a year... Atsuro would hit his first anniversary in a few weeks.]

So, everyone! What’s the Kanto gym leaders are like? I know about Sabrina, but what about the others?

(OOC: Mod approved badge get~)

Congratulations. Your Arcanine should have little trouble with Celadon's Erika, as she uses Grass-types. ...Unless, of course, you request to fight her higher-level team. Even a type advantage might not be quite enough then.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

I probably will request for her stronger team, since my main battling team are pretty high leveled. And want a better challenge.

[video]

[paladinlost]

It's quite worth it. They also seem to put more effort in their strategies when they are allowed to fight at full strength.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

I take it you challenged Erika already?

[video]

[paladinlost]

I did. My team was quite looking forward to it, and I saw no reason to force them to wait.

Re: [video]

[babel_hacker]

Ahahah, yeah. I'll see for myself whenever I make my way over to Kanto. Pascal and Ada want more challenges for their rivalry. [He chuckles, as Pascal give him a look. Hey, his rivalry with Ada is serious business!]

[video]

[paladinlost]

Is that so? What is Ada's type, if you do not mind me asking?

[video]

[babel_hacker]

She's a dark type. A Mightyena, actually.

[video]

[shadowdive]

They're rough. A full team of level 100s, at least in Celadon, and that is the grass gym.

[video]

[pinnedbangs]

[;A; HE HASN'T EVEN GOTTEN ONE BADGE WHYYYYYY]

There are EIGHT of those gym leaders?!!

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Level 100s, huh? My strongest is currently at level 99, and he's my starter. I'd probably have my usual team caught up in time.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Yep! Eight gym leaders in Johto! And another eight in Kanto, too.

[video]

[pinnedbangs]

16 badges... are they all like Falkner? Oh, congrats! [THUMBS UP FOR YOU, DUDE!] Should have said that first...

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Thanks!

[Griiiins.] And yeah, pretty much! Of course, I think they're stronger than Falkner and they use different types than him.

[video]

[paladinlost]

That makes one type advantage for each, between Erika and Sabrina. However, as far as I know they'll do at best neutral damage to the rest.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Uh huh. Erika and Sabrina probably don't count for them, because of their type advantages, but the others do.

...Beside Misty in Cerulean City for Pascal. The gym leader's still Misty, right?

[video]

[paladinlost]

[He nods.]

I doubt your Pascal will like that particular battle, should you choose to use him for some reason.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Nah, I'm not gonna use him for that gym. Antec or Loupe would be my preferred choices.

[video]

[pinnedbangs]

Can I see your team? [SO COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL] Just how many types of Pokemon are there...?

[video]

[paladinlost]

I've no doubt all are quite thankful for that.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Ahah, yeah. So what about the other gyms? Did you challenge them yet?

[video]

[babel_hacker]

Sure thing! Lemme get the rest of my current team out first...Hey, Asterisk, Fortron!

[The screen moves around a lot, before it seems to be passed over to Atsuro. A Clefairy and Fortron appears on the screen, going over next to the Arcanine, as their trainer bring out the rest of his team.

A Lanturn, Mightyena and a Fearow.]

It's not my entire battle team, since Fortron and Asterisk are my filming duo.

[video]

[shadowdive]

I had five Pokemon with a type advantage and level 100s myself and had trouble.

[video]

[babel_hacker]

...Great! I can't wait to take them on for myself!

[video]

[shadowdive]

Record it. I want to see if you do win. [And what tactic I should be aiming for.]
