Current location: Saved in Anistar City, about to pick up Flamethrower in the morning, team is L53.
Zappa - Psychic, Moonblast, Grass Knot, Charge Beam (last two to be replaced by Shadow Ball and Ice Beam, then swapped *back* to Grass Knot for one fight during the E4, yadda yadda)
Steven Tyler - Razor Shell, Night Slash, Rock Tomb, Surf (last two: Rock Slide and Brick Break)
Tori - X-Scissor, Rock Slide, Dig, Cut (last two: Earthquake and Shell Smash)
Denver - Dragon Claw, Crunch, Rock Tomb, Strength (last two: Rock Slide and Earthquake)
Madonna - Freeze-Dry, Thunderbolt, Ancientpower, Nature Power (last one: Dark Pulse)
Skynyrd - Fly, Iron Head, Fire Fang, Thunder Fang (no changes planned)
The story begins with a tour of Lumiose for shiggles as I try to see if I can stay up long enough to evolve both Denver and Madonna close together, but that didn't work out according to plan. Instead, we rolled Route 14 and took on the Fairy Gym, which went pretty much as expected except for Sylveon surviving long enough to squeeze a Charm off against Skynyrd.
Denver evolved in the Poke Ball Factory, and a quick tour of the 15->Lost Hotel->16 complex let me handle Madonna's evo and general leveling of the team - the fact that I'm able to do Sky Battles and not miss Exp is helping as well.
In the Frost Cavern, I actually didn't have all that much trouble with the Fighting round... though that's largely due to it being a combo of Skynyrd and Zappa's turn to ride. Even the dreaded Brains and Brawn got wrecked by Tori.
After the Psychic gym was swiftly dispatched, it was time for Flare. And a big run it was - Steven got Razor Shell to give it a usable Water attack for the first time since Surf was added, Zappa learned Moonblast for Fairy fun, and Skynyrd basically wrecked everything short of MegaGyarados.
Tomorrow's goals are two-fold: Get to the Elite, and figure out which 6 of 8 will be used for Dragon coming up next.
