Day 9

Continuing our perusing of the S.S. Anne, my team and I were ambushed quite unexpectedly by Master. We took a bit of strategic time beating the crap out of his Pokemon, rather than doing it quickly like we normally would. After defeating Master, we went and obtained Cut from the captain of the S.S. Anne. Kors is my current Cutting Pokemon.

Angelo, my Magikarp, finally reached level 15 and learned Tackle. He became just slightly more useful than we was before, but not by much.

My team and I then went and battled through the Vermilion City Gym. We trounced Lt. Surge and earned ourselves a Thunder Badge.

After defeating Lt. Surge, we decided to take a run through Diglett's Cave. This turned out to be a colossal mistake, at least as far as my team goes. Angelo the Magikarp died fighting the first Diglett we came across. Emmett the Mankey then killed that Diglett. Emmett was killed a few Digletts later. On our way back through Diglett's Cave after obtaining Flash, Ms.Feather just narrowly avoided being killed by a Dugtrio. If she hadn't known Whirlwind, Ms.Feather would have been toast!

R.I.P. Angelo

R.I.P. Emmett

On Route 11, I added a Spearow female to the team. Her name was Izzy. While training her/battling another trainer, Izzy was killed by a Magnemite. So... that was annoying. I'm back to just four Pokemon and kind of pissed off about it.

R.I.P. Izzy

I sincerely hope tomorrow goes better.

Love ya, Jessie.

Day 8

I've never really spent a heck of a lot of time running around Route 6 before. Today though, in order to train Hodgens, my Meowth, my team and I spent a ton of time running from Route 6 back to Cerulean City and then back to Route 6... over and over and over. Route Six yielded nothing except Meowths, Pidgeys, and Oddishes.

Once I decided I was bored of Route 6, we headed to Vermillion City. We obtained an Old Rod from the Fishing Guru and headed back to Route 6. I went fishing and caught a Magikarp. Hodgens killed the Magikarp before I had a chance to throw a Pokeball. Darn...

We then went back to Vermillion City and went fishing just off the coast. Again, I caught a Magikarp. This time, I got him in a Pokeball. His name is Angelo. My notes from today say this: "Kind of hoping I never have to use him. Ever."

Sadly, while battling on the S.S. Anne, Hodgens was killed due to the Poison Point of a Nidoran.

R.I.P. Hodgens

Ugh! I knew I'd jinxed it yesterday! So now Angelo has had to join my team. I'm doing my best to train him as quickly as I can. Lord knows a Gyarados is much more... everything than a Magikarp. Angelo hasn't even learned Tackle at this point!

On the bright side, Rimmer evolved into a Gloom today. We're still working our way through the S.S. Anne. Hopefully... no. Not going there today. We'll just leave it at that.

Oh, and Hodgens' tombstone will be up on my deviantArt shortly.

Love ya, Jessie.
