Before I take a few days to train up my HM team, I decided to take on Route 206 & Wayward Cave. Route 206 is Cycling Road, and there are quite a few trainers here, and it was nice to actually use my bike. Besides, I wanted to do a few captures and get a new team member. Speaking of the new team member, I want to have a short discussion about the comparison between Stunky (which I named Josephine) and Skorupi (which, once I capture it, will be named Skorpios). I also captured a Bronzor.
I couldn't really explore Wayward Cave too much, since you need Flash. I did find the secret entrance, where Gible is available, but I can't get to the exact location without the use of Strength. Once I got done with checking out Route 206, I ran into Dawn, who complemented me on my seen Pokemon. I also got the VS Seeker. I have to train Josephine up (she came in at Level 14) to Level 22-23. I will also get the HM Team set up to Level 22. Should not take too long.
In the next Log, we will explore Route 207, Southern Mount Coronet, & Route 208. It will take a bit to do. Please be patient with me! Until then, we will see you!
| Pros: -You get Stunky pretty early in the game. -Comes already set with the Poison/Dark typing. -Faster speed (74) than Skorupi (65) -Skunktank is a good placeholder for Drapion. Cons: -Stunky has to be babied for a while before it can be useful. | Pros: -Skorupi gives an active moveset from the get go. -Drapion has a faster speed (95) than Skunktank (84) -Drapion can be very tanky, taking a lot more hits. -I prefer Drapion over Skunktank. Cons: -Skorupi can come in mid-game. -It's home is the Great Marsh, and it is a tough capture. |
