Dragon Quill

Still more to do chatting with people in Driftveil…

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!

Okay, I’m finding the avenue thing kind of addictive. I particularly like the antique store, even if all I’m getting right now are hard rocks.

Pokemon I download off Pokecheck produce trainers, so I just grabbed a bunch more pokemon from there.

Okay, looks like that’s it for the whole Relic area, at least for now, so, time to go back.

(more…)

Huh, this area is kind of creepy! Remember it was desert last game? Not only is it hugely built up now, but there’s trees and fountains and grass, so this is undoubtedly destroying the local water table. It’s like LA!

Okay, so, current team is now:

L21 psyduck
L?? magnemite
L17 audino
L19 flaaffy
L22 servine
L19 koffing

Hey! shouts Failry.

Team Plasma: What do you want?

Gary: Team Plasma! You villains!

Team Plasma: What? Don’t treat us like villains!

Yeah, Nintendo, it’s boring.

So more exploring the city, I guess.

Okay, so actually the movie thing looks moderately interesting. You have to figure out the right moves to fulfill the script. And you do get items for succeeding! Unfortunately it’s set up in a rather punishing manner, where it’s easy to fail due to chance move use.

But moving on.

Time for the gym.

It looks pretty cool! And the music is certainly different, you can hear her shouting words.

(more…)

Hey, talk about something cool!

(more…)

Alder: Oh! It looks like you’ve delivered the Town Map to your friend! Hrm… You were only gone a moment, but you and your Pokemon have grown. Why, I could almost mistake you for someone else!

So can I go now?

Well then. Instead of training you,

So I don’t even get anything out of hearing your game-delaying babble?

I would like you and your Pokemon to give me a hand!

Oh even better game here I was sitting thinking that being trained by Douchy would be just so awesome, but what if I could be helping Douchy out instead wouldn’t that be even better?

And we go inside, where he’s apparently abducted two little kids.

(more…)

Okay, so. Let’s battle, unknown guy who’s probably related to Team Plasma but frankly looks more like a Team Aqua member!

(more…)

Last time, tutorial over with? Let’s go catch some pokemon!

(more…)

Last time, rvial battle!
