April 25th

I'm making my way though the Nuzlocke Challenge in Pokémon Ruby! It's so much more emotional and stressful than normal, and I'm already a very emotional and stressed out girl. I got really lucky and encountered one of my favorite Pokémon as the first on its route, so I'm now training a very pretty little Swablu. I've really got two main players on my team right now, my starter (currently a level 31 Marshstomp) and a Linoone (level 30) that was the first Pokémon I caught in the game. After I've trained my Swablu up a bit, I'm going to work on the Machop I caught. I named him Savage after Macho Man Randy Savage. My next gym battle is going to be Flannery, so I'm not terribly worried because Marshstomp should sweep her team. After that, though...I don't know. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a Grass-type Pokémon at some point, since I don't have one yet. I'd also love a Fire-type to use on my rival.
