Saturday 24th April11:28pmOkay, I've finally decided on the nicknames for the latest batch of pokemon I'm going after, so I'll finally be able to move on and actually start trying to catch them. First, however, I'm going to attempt to actually
win the Bug-Catchng Contest. Wish me luck...
11:49pmOkay, I have a level 13 Pinsir that still has just over 3/4 of its HP. I
may be in with a chance, but I'm not getting my hopes up...
11:56pmYES!! First place! Apparently my Pinsir was worth 302 points. Of course, I'll be releasing it straight away as I already have a Pinsir, but that's okay... I now only need to enter at least one more contest right now, as only two pokemon evolve with a Sun Stone.
12:13amOkay, I've now released the Pinsire using the PC inside one of the gatehouses leading into the National Park. I just thought it would be kinder to release him near his own habitat. Now then, off to Cherrygrove City to begin my catching spree. I'm so glad Sudowoodo's not blocking the path in the junction between Routes 36 & 37 anymore. It makes getting around and backtracking so much easier...
1:09amI just caught a Tentacool, whom I've named Brandman. ILS in particular might get why I called him that.
Fun Fact: Tentacool's debut, "
Tentacool and Tentacruel", was one of the first episodes of the Pokemon anime I ever saw. To be honest, if I'd known then what an annoying little **** it was going to be in the games, I probably would've sided with the villain-of-the-week trying to exterminate them.
1:41amAfter many, many encounters with Magikarps, I
finally managed to encounter and catch a Krabby. I've called him Findor.
I can't help wondering why the "Can't escape!" message kept coming up when Magikarp pretty much just flops around and the ones I met all only used Splash...
1:57amI just caught a very young/inexperienced Exeggcute on Route 30. I've decided to call it Cluster.
My internet's going to lock down in a few minutes, so this will probably be the last update I can make. I'll fill you guys in on anything else significant that happens tonight tomorrow.
