I took the long way round to do a couple of things, like give the meteorite to Professor Cosmo. On the way I fell foul of some of the trainers I'd avoided the first time. Bwahaha.
|
And here I am, back in town, ready to face my archnemesis... Slaking.
|
Petalburg Gym is an annoying place where the trainers like to spam items like Dire Hit. I wonder how different things will be with a wob... I mean, I want them to get critical hits on me.
|
First battle of the gym and Wobbette reaches another milestone. (The Swellow died in two turns, by the way)
|
In the "Strength Room"... Ow!! Two Swords Dances and a Slash. One attack.
|
By my calculations, he got 310 points of damage back.
|
This was amusing. Wobbette and the Slakoth unsuccessfully tried to Counter each other for a while, then when I decided it wasn't going to do anything else I switched Darkie in and destroyed it on the off turns.
|
Oog...
|
Norman opened with Spinda, which was easy. Then Slaking came out, and all he wanted to do was Yawn or Counter. I switched, and he took out Darkie instantly with Facade. I sent Wobbette out again and he went back to Countering.
|
Finally, something happened. Wobbette Countered the Facade successfully (doing just a bit more than 50%), healed up on the off turn and then went back to hiding behind Safeguards.
|
Must've been fifteen turns before he did it again. But when he did, Wobbette was waiting. A Wobbuffet is very patient.
|
After that, Vigoroth was easy. Two Slashes, two Counters.
|
Linoone reaped what he sowed.
|
Fifth gym badge acquired. Wobbuffet met Slaking, and Wobbuffet won.
|
Had to catch a new pokemon in order to Surf, so I mooched around until I found a marill. That wasn't the only new addition...
