Pokemon Black 2, Day Sixteen

Huh, the battle beyond is still going on.

You have four Gym Badges… You might be able to defeat Charles! Please beat him for me!

God, what’s with people ordering me about? At least this is to fight someone rather than be backup.

I guess this actually makes sense as a roadblock – I’m irritated but I think that’s because this is a retread of hiker asshole. This is a perfectly fine badge-related block in itself, it’s just that it’s the second time they’ve made me get a badge in order to get past someone.

You know, considering how annoyed I usually am by the game ignoring me, it’s odd that I wouldn’t mind the barrier just disappearing with implied time. I guess it’s because I also like the idea things go along on their own, and also because that’s how it was a lot in the first games.

Charles keeps going on about being a heartbreaker. Don’t care! Battle time!

Pokemon Black 2, Day Eighteen

Oh…just noticed Failry’s standing by the gym.

Gary: Challenging the Gym, huh? Nice! Keep getting stronger! Let me tell you, though, Clay’s tough! Even if all you have to use against Ground types is Water-type Pokemon, you might still be in for a rough fight!

I…did something get screwed up in the translation? “If all you have” generally means it’s not the best option. Maybe it was supposed to be something more along the lines of “if your whole team is water types”.

Well, at least he’s brief.

Also, for once he’s beaten the gym ahead of me like a proper rival.
