Current location: Just pulled into Shalour City. The team is now L29/30, Rolo's a Malamar (and has Aerial Ace), Cecilia has evolved and will actually get a Fire move soon, Jeremiah evolved, I inadvertently overwrote CC's Brick Break and don't care because HELLOJUMPKICK is two levels away, and I have a newcomer:
"Nina" - female Stunky - Stench, Naughty - Cut, Dig, Thief, Shadow Claw
We got Cecilia situated and headed down to the Coastal level for the ceremonial item digging and Swimmer punting... though it was kind of hard when you're leading off with a Fire type. Oh well. Pulled into Cyllage City, beat the Gym including Cecilia needing two hits to take out Amaura with Rock Smash. Also, I gained a new respect for Rolo's Foul Play (it 2HKOed Tyrunt).
Route 10 and Geosenge were soaked with rain, so I sent Team Flare temporarily packing. It took some subtle manuvering to get past Lucario x2, but Jeremiah proved his loyalty and managed to Bulldoze them into submission to get past that. Only took one Revive + Soda Pop combo to do so.
On Route 11, we met Nina, I am officially sick of Naughty natures, and managed to beat the Brains and Brawn in front of Reflection Cave without losing Nina so I call that a win. The cave itself had a hairy moment at the hands of a surprisingly durable Sawk who ended up wiping out the entire team before I could run back to the Nurse equivalent. So glad he'll be on my side for once a few runs down the road.
By the way, since this is the 6th run, we're about at the 1/3 mark of the project, so I'll be going over plans for the rest of the run after this one ends. I've pretty much got the order decided, starting with a situation where I'll get all 6 party Pokemon within what would be 20 minutes or so of game time if I wasn't stopping to Super Train everything.
