DAY 8

I travel east of Nimbasa City to find more pokemon. I get to Route 16.

Depot Agent:
Drilbur LV25 vs Warpath LV25, dig, razor shell miss, dig, razor shell kills.

I get to the grass after the battle. after a minute of circling the grass I get my first encounter, Minccino LV23. I catch it and name her Wolfbane.

I leave and go west of Nimbasa City. I enter Route 5 and talk to Bianca. She gives me HM Fly. My first encounter is another minccino which I run from because of the no doubles clause. My first encounter after is Liepard LV22 I catch it and name her X-23.

I go back to Nimbasa and heal my mon. Now I have a choice to make; I have Banshee (zubat), Pixie (cottonee), Wolfbane (minccino) and X-23 (liepard). My intial thought is to bring X-23 because its fully evolved but it has a poor nature and lower level then Wolfbane. So I choose Wolfbane for my team. I teach TM Return to Warpath instead of tackle. Also Wolfbane is taught TM Thief and TM Dig. I find red shards. I buy 4 great balls, 4 super potions and I find both a paralyze heal and a random dropped item. I walk over to the gym and find out she is missing atm. But I'm probably under leveled anyway and I choose to go all the way back to the desert resort to train.

After I enter the route a sandstorm kicks up.

Nurse:
Cleffa LV22 vs Wolfbane LV23, dig, sweet kiss misses, dig hits magic leaf, then swift kills.

Poke Ranger:
Darumaka LV23 vs Wolfbane LV23, dig, headbutt misses, dig hits, fire punch and sandsatorm put me down to 16HP but then swift kills.

I get two rawst berries and find stardust. I go back to the Nurse and heal and then continue on.

Poke Ranger:
Magby LV23 vs Wolfbane LV23, dig, lava burst misses, dig hits, lava burst hits and crits and then sandstorm puts me down to 12HP (yikes!) I switch to Dust, flame burst does little, smack down, kills

I run back and heal up, I find yellow shard and soft sand.

Psychic:
Woobat LV22 vs Wolfbane LV23, thief, assurance, thief kills.
Yanmask LV22 I switch to Dust because sandstorm is slowly lowering my health, hex, smackdown, wil-o-wisp, hex crit, I use a super potion. smack down, hex, smack down. now she is at 18 Health, I switch again to Archangel, hex does nothing then air cutter kills.

Again I go backand heal my mon. I battle some wild mon and Wolf bane gets to LV24 and Dust gets to LV24. I find a heart scale. Next I enter the Relic Castle! (new area) My first encounter is Yanmask LV18 I catch it and name it Forge.

Psychic:
Solossis LV23 vs Warpath LV24, razor shell crit kills.

I head back out into the sandstorm...
