Ah, I've just started putting them to sleep, and spamming poke-balls

EDIT: One could argue that this wasn't in by the end of the week, but just live with it. You get Pokemon, be happy.
Yay, it's back! The story continues!

You must have a very effective means of determining the use of actions, because I cannot see any reason for this.

Well, I think that there’s something that drives people to battle Pokemon. Some sort of
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-20.png
That makes trainers who they are. So, I suppose battling you makes me feel… right. Like things are as they should be.

Gah! Frikin’ sandstorm popped outta nowhere! There was no wayI was making headway through that. So, we turned back and searched for an alternate path.

Okay, let’s see what’s up with this.

Let’s do it!

Wow, it’s hot in here.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-59.png
Hey, there! What’s your name?
I am Ember, and I shall be the greatest fire Pokemon ever!

My, my wonderful dream…
LIDDAAA!
*sob* I’m sorry! I’m sorry… *sob*
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-61.png
And who are you?
I am Victoria, daughter of the great battle mount Victor, in whose steps I follow!
So… you want to be mounted by big sweaty men.
Azgard, shut up before I duct tape your mouth. Victoria, would you like to join our little band?
That would be great!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-62.png
Welcome to the team, then. Numel the battle mount Pokemon. Numel live in the shadow of their warrior parents, hoping to become like them.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-63.png
FIRE BAD!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-64.png
You asked for it.

Why? Just, why? At least try, man!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-66.png

You’re talking to me like you know me. Have I thrashed you before?

They’re not actors. They’re the real thing.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-69.png
You mean fight, right?
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-70.png
How is that thing still standing?
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-71.png
Told you so.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-72.png
We made our way to Route 113, where we were greeted with a scene the likes of which I’d never even heard of. It would have looked like any other route in the world, except for the layer of ash that clung like snow to the ground, as gray flakes lazily tumbled out of the sky.
Yeesh, look at this place. It’s freaking buried in ash.
Sneak peek at the end of the world, huh?
Maybe just.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...17/RN17-73.png
Man, that’s something. Everything but your footsteps covered in soot. It’s just so… desolate.

Characters that speak in this chapter:
SpoilerMichael
Azgard
Lidda
Petey
Marvin
And introducing:
Victoria
Thoughts:
SpoilerFirst off: dammit, Lidda, why'd you kill the recruit?! I actually put my finger on the buttong, thought "As long as she doesn't crit..." and pressed it. There are times when there is no barrier between my mind and Michael's mouth. Eh, at least we got the Numel. In other news, the Route 113 music is awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5D8T9pB284
Also: Carol likes to sing: Joke or coincidence of translation?
Also, I need a grinding level for Flannery. She has:
SpoilerTwo Lv.26 Slugma and a Lv. 28 Torkoal
If I don't get suggestions, I will default to the level of the opponent's highest level Pokemon, in this case 28.
Aw, looks like Igor has a cross dimensional girlfriend now :smalltongue:
Azgard kinda reminds me of Memetic.
What about Maxie at the top of the volcano?
Well, since we never got any of the Poocheyna pups in the game, we have yet to establish that they exist in the same multiverse.
I think the best way to describe Azgard at this point would be a CoD player, minus the ****** jokes and random f-bombs. We'll see what happens with him.
And, yeah, Maxie slipped my mind there. Lemme look that up.
SpoilerMightyena Lv. 24, Golbat Lv. 24 and Camerupt Lv. 25
So I'm thinking I'll grind to meet Flannery, and then do the both of them.
Huh, that's interesting, they censor the ruder form of homosexual. Anyway, we'll see what happens in regards to the multiverse.
*Scrolls through thread* Oh, crap, did I say I was going to update this? Ugh, well, that's what going out of town will do for you. Monday/Tuesday is the new release date.
I spent most of my afternoon reading this LP, an afternoon well spent in my books. Posting to subscribe and letting you know you are doing a great job.
YakYak's Morale sharply rose!
Oh, wait, I did update that one I said I was going to. Well, that makes me an idiot all over again. I'll get the Pokemon available for suggestions up soon, and then finish up the next chapter.
Also: I just got a thought in my head. I suck at drawing, so if I could get someone to draw Playachu for me, I would be vary grateful.
Names and personalities needed for the following potential recruits:

I feel like I'm writing the script to a Metal Gear Solid game: I'm trying to be serious, and everybody throws insane characters at me.
I won't name anyone since I suck at doing that; but I have some ideas for personalities.
Zangoose: Regardless of gender it is in love with a Seviper they can breed IG!); but has to keep his love secret due the racial hatred between the species.
Electrike/Manectric: Has been just expelled from the pack, depresed because of that challenges Michael looking for a Warrior's death and it is incredibly furious when he/she is captured.
It said it would leave me alone if I did this.
In other news: Update by this time next week.
Need name/personality for Solrock.
Really, how did I miss that? *facepalm*
Okay, I am a horrible liar. Either that or I have a surprise for you.
Well, it's not the surprise I had in mind, but to commemerate our not blowing up, I have a 100-image update for you!

Skarmory the spy Pokemon. Skarmory seem to be reconnaissance units for a group scouting out trainers of some form of value.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...H18/RN18-7.png
Fallabor Town. I’ll never forget that place. Out of all the places I visited on that trip, it sticks out as one of the most prominent. Not because of what it was or what happened there, but simply that it was there. It stood in the shadow of a volcano, the buildings built upon volcanic soil, and everyone knowing full well that all it took for their world to come to a fiery end was Mother Nature waking up on the wrong side of the bed. And yet, in the face of this, the people continued on, going about their daily lives with smiles on their faces. They weren’t convicts or exiles, they were people who had willingly chosen to live there, and enjoyed it despite, or maybe because of, the ever-present reminder of their frailty as humans.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...H18/RN18-8.png
Okay, Lidda, I can’t deal with you anymore right now. You’re on time out now, we’ll talk about your “finding” and killing recruits later.
Wait, no, please! Please don’t put me in the-
Pokemon storage successful.
Let’s see, who to bring out. Eh, how about Victoria? We could use a fire type.
Pokemon withdraw successful.
Thank you, Captain! Are you going to be training me in the arts of battle?
Something like that.
Uhh, Chief?
Yeah, Petey?
Yer not gunna box anee of us, are ya?
I could tell that she was worried. She was thinking ‘What would it take for him to box me?’ Lidda had been part of the team for even longer than Petey, and it must have shaken her up to see me box her like that. Don’t worry, Petey. I’m not about to box anyone. I care about you. All of you. Even Lidda, I’m just giving her a time out. You guys drive me crazy sometimes, but in the end, I’ve never had friends like you guys.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...H18/RN18-9.png
‘anks, Chief.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-10.png

Yew need me, an ah’ll be thar fer ya.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-12.png
Always.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-13.png
That’s very touching and all, but you might notice that we wandered into the tall grass?
I smiled and shook my head. It had taken forever, but I could finally take Azgard’s crap in stride.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-14.png
Okay.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-15.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-16.png
And done.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-17.png
What do you want?
Jeez, man! What’s up with you?
Nothing. Get outta here.
Well, sorry, I can’t do that without catching you first.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-18.png
I’m warning you, get outta here!
Sorry, no.
Then you shall meet your end by the hand of Romeo of the house of-
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-19.png
Yeah, sure. Zangoose the hostile Pokemon. For some reason, Zangoose are very cranky when met by trainers.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-20.png
Sure, why not.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-21.png
Wow, that is something.
Eht’s beutufhul!
Burn…
I mean it’s amazing!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-22.png
I know, it’s just beautiful, isn’t it?
Who are you?
My name is Illumination, and I am here to light up your life!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-23.png
Then why wouldn’t you stay in the damn ball?
Not in that way!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-24.png
Whatever, screw you.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-25.png
Ah, hell. Magma again.

http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-31.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-32.png
You’re not getting away that easy!
Three guys in blue. My first thought was that they were Southside to Magma’s North. I wasn’t far off.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-33.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-34.png
You don’t stand a chance.

http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-37.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-38.png
If I’m really honest, I think my biggest advantage over Magma was that they usually felt the need to battle me before I’d get out of their way. If they decided instead to just bum rush me, then they had a bit more success.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-39.png
Name’s Michael. And if you’re another crime gang, I guess I’m going to end up trashing you guys as well.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-40.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-41.png
And why would that be?
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-42.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-43.png
So, you’re a vigilante group, and not a gang?
Yes. We were founded for the sole purpose of defeating Team Magma, and ending their schemes before they destroy the region.

Guess we might as well find out.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-58.png
Well, look who’s not guarding the cable car anymore.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-59.png
Sure, why not?
Because you’re going to get us all killed up there.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-60.png
Oh, come on, nobody’s going to die.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-61.png
Out the front door, and the first thing I saw was a pair of Poocheyna tearing into each other as a Magma and Aqua grunt yelled at them. It sounded like a fight to the death.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-62.png
But the fight that really sticks in my mind was the one Archie was in. Somehow, his Pokemon was holding its own despite being outnumbered three to one.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-63.png

I’ll hold these ones off, but I can’t get past them! Get Maxie while I keep them busy!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-68.png
Hey, Maxie! Remember me? I’m here to kick your ass!

After killing everything on the land it covers. You didn’t think this through, did you?
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-74.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-75.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-76.png
Then maybe you should, I dunno, not cover it in lava?

*sigh* Why do I waste my breath trying to talk to idiots like you?
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-81.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-82.png
Come and get me!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-83.png
Your petty insults cannot provoke me. I shall simply defeat you and move along with my plan.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-84.png
You know the drill, Petey, Water Gun!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-85.png
The Mightyena struggled, kicking sand about and desperately gnawing at Petey, but in the end, the barrage of water knocked it to the ground, unconscious.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-86.png
And again!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-87.png
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-88.png
Yep, we got this, Petey.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-89.png
FIRE BAD! FIRE BAD!
What?!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...18/RN18-90.png

Archie’s leg was wrapped in a bloodstained bandage, and he was limping. But on the other hand, that was probably better than could be said of his Pokemon.

Theta-One
Romeo
Thoughts:
SpoilerWell, get two and loose one to RNG crap. At least the fight with Maxie went that well. I didn't show it, but that Golbat wouldn't die, with us both using 2 Super Potions there. Anyway, with our end-of-the-world (in more way than one) update over, it's time to go for the next badge!
So, who should I bring for Flannery? She has:
SpoilerTwo Lv.26 Slugma and a Lv. 28 Torkoal
A grinding level of 28 has been suggested, although that's what I would have defaulted to anyway. Any objections?
Hey, I finally got around to editing the roster way back in the first post!
They say time flies when you're having fun, but this? No, it can't have been a full year that I've been on GitP. Really? Huh. Well, then, to celebrate: BADLY NEEDED UPDATES TO ALL LPs!

Thanks for the tip, that was great!

Lavaridge was awfully small for a gym town, smaller even than Dewford. But at the same time, it felt busier. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but it just felt like there was more bustle there.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...CH19/19-12.png
Alright, Lidda, welcome back. Please stop stealing every shiny thing you see.
She scampered up to me and hugged my leg I’m sorry, I’m so sorry! Please don’t put me back in the box!
I patted her head It’s okay, Lidda. I forgive you.

No box?

Nice work, Victoria!
I am growing closer to the power of my father!

Victoria, you’re doing great! Just a little more!
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...CH19/19-49.png
Nice effort, Victoria. You’re done.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...CH19/19-50.png
Nice, Marvin!
In video games, they call it grinding. Endlessly beating up random opponents for experience points. The funny thing is, every now and then, something truly unexpected happens.

I don’t remember much of what happened right after that. I remember the taste of salt in my mouth, the feel of charred feathers in my hands and against my face. I remember that I said something, probably begging Petey not to die.
http://i1157.photobucket.com/albums/...ps40eb316f.png
And I remember seeing Lidda tearing the Torkal’s artery out. Honestly, I don’t remember if I ordered her to attack or not. I don’t even remember staying to collect the badge, but I must have, because it was on the inside of my vest the next morning.

And this is why you choose Mudkip as your starter (Taste double resistance bitch!) :smalltongue:
But did you run out of healing potions or something? I mean counting STAB and resistance Overheat is still stronger then Bodyslam. Why would you think 23 hp would cut it?
Beccause I wasn't expecting the Overheat in the first place. Guess I got just a little bit cocky.
That also means it's time to vote for the new team member. I'll leave you guys to that.
