Current location: Saved at the top of the stairs on Route 15 that lead down to the Lost Hotel.
Current team:
Alexander the Magnezone L39 (Quiet, SA/Speed, Sturdy) - Thunderbolt, Flash Cannon, Tri Attack, Metal Sound
Ixion L41 - Thunderbolt, Grass Knot, Surf, Bulldoze
Tiamat L41 - Thunderbolt, Dragon Pulse, Power Gem, Thunder Wave
Tritoch L41 - Thunderbolt, Surf, Signal Beam, Dazzling Gleam
Remora the Stunfisk L40 (Hasty, SA/Speed, Static) - Thunderbolt, Mud Bomb, Surf, Discharge
(space reserved for Raiden the Rotom)
It was back to The Route That Shall Not Be Named to open today, and not surprisingly, nobody could really make use of Charge Beam. Shame. There's something about letting Tritoch soak up all the experience that just made the Power Plant fun, though I did end up running out of Full Heals before I could get past the Swalot who Toxiced the departed Quetzalcoatl.
Into the Electric gym, and we spread the experience around a bit. Surprisingly, Clemont's Emolga decided to Volt Switch out of the way of a mega Power Gem... sadly, his Heliolisk is an inferior model and got two-shot. I let Ramuh handle his fellow rat, and Tritoch wiped out Magneton for the badge (and more importantly, Thunderbolt).
Next, we needed a Stunfisk. The third one on Route 14 was suitable - as we know now, Static is WAY better for Stunfisk - and it got to L36 from L31 by the time we hit Laverre. Remora took the gym mostly on her own, bar the incident with the Energy Ball Slurpuff - and even got Mawile with Mud Bomb, but then Ramuh went off all big-time Strengthee on the last two to pick up badge 6 and Tritoch's Dragon defense pre-Ice Beam.
From there, we unlocked Route 15, evaded every trainer, and caught a suitable Magneton in two shots after a trip to the Returner for some people (mostly Tiamat). A spare Rare Candy made it Magnezone, then we pumped it full of drugs and set it off for an ST session... just one more to go.
Tomorrow: Catch Rotom, clear out to Anistar.
