Ice Day 1: George R R Martin Lawsuit Edition

Started the Ice run while the preview was publishing, and we currently have Byakuya the Amaura (though I probably should call it something else...) at L24, with Nature Power/Aurora Beam/Rock Smash/Bulldoze, a Modest nature and with Special Attack and Speed trained as high as the IVs will allow.

I did pick Fennekin as the starter and got a Bold Female off the hop (eh, acceptable) and decided the first thing I saw would be its partner until I got the fossil. Turned out to be a Jolly Fletchling, so I rolled through the first half of the game with just those two. At the very least, it makes me more confident that I'll be able to pull off Fire without gift Pokemon assistance for once.

And as a special bonus, somewhere around Lumiose I got... the Pokerus. *kaching* Unfortunately, it doesn't work the same way with Super Training. It's supposed to give more Double Up bags, but the total I got was within normal parameters. Further study is required. (And thanks to Squirtle, it will happen.)

It only took about eight resets to get the Modest Amaura, and he did OK on the beach route leveling up - though it helped that there, Nature Power became Earth Power which helped him mow down Tentacool. Also, I completely missed that it can learn Bulldoze, so I'll have something better than Rock Smash for the double Lucario fight.

Now, I have one question - since I catch every Pokemon I see that can qualify, I happened to catch a Quiet (+SA -Speed) Eevee on Route 10 while getting some last minute grinding in. It was suggested in a comment - I know, I'm shocked too - that I carry Eevee to have a spare until at least Lapras shows up... but Eevee has the slight issue of having Amaura's Defense without the HP or moves to back it up, and it'd be cruel to basically use Eevee as a meat shield. I'm trying to avoid using Bank for anything bigger than one move, but I may not have a choice.

Should I throw Eevee into Bank, grab it with my other game and make it a Glaceon? If so, should I give it a usable moveset at the same time? Or should I say forget the whole thing since I'm trying to turn this into an FAQ and can't assume everyone is as insane as I am?
