Steel Day 3: Screw Fighting, Let's Just Troll Everything

We're currently down in the Reflection Cave, about to enter Shalour City, get MegaLucario and all that other good stuff.

The team as it stands now:

Nosepass "Parker" - Rock Tomb, Bulldoze, Rock Smash, Spark (L26)
Lilly - Return, Shadow Claw, Power-Up Punch, Bulldoze (L27 - same as the rest)
Trina - Shadow Sneak, Pursuit, Aerial Ace, Cut
Thumper - Bulldoze, Smack Down, Autotomize, Gyro Ball
Mawile "Weevil" - Fairy Wind, Bite, Rock Smash, Strength
Ferroseed "Celeste" - Metal Claw, Rock Smash, Pin Missile, Rollout

The first stop was to the grand Battle Chateau, where I leveled up Parker (who by the way, is a PITA to use when all of its special moves come post-evo and you have nothing but physical) and worked my way up to Cyllage Gym. Thumper got Amaura with Gyro Ball, and a combo of Celeste and Lilly got rid of Tyrunt. Bite doing like, 1/4 health to Tyrunt because of Iron Barbs + Rocky Helmet was the fun part.

I am actually REALLY loving Iron Barbs right now. It's nice to be able to survive the Fighting offense and be able to do something back + take 1/6 off. Metal Claw as the sole STAB is a bit troubling for it, but that's going to change shortly.

Ran Route 10 to Geosenge, won a Lucario fight, and was still horribly under-leveled... so I did some wild grinding to get everyone on the same level and cranked the Exp Share. I don't know when it's going off, but probably not until the Grass gym.

Tomorrow, I have an extended shift from hell at work because of the weather (11.5 hour day) so any progress I'll make is going to be a bonus.
