Yeah, to be perfectly fair, I really didn't do much today. I've been meaning to do some hardcore training and just, well, didn't. Whoops. Perhaps tomorrow.

But here's a quick rundown of what I did do. Basically, I plodded through the National Park, fought all the trainers, and then got to the Sudowoodo blocking the way to Ecruteak City. I caught the Sudowoodo mostly because it's the only one in the game, but I don't really plan to use it. Afterwards, I had an embarrassing battle experience with two "beauties" whose Wigglytuff and Clefable were FRICKIN TANKS, and I got to Ecruteak. OH. BEFORE I FORGET. I replaced Nami's Razor Leaf with Magical Leaf because it's more powerful and never misses. MOVING ON.

At Ecruteak, I met with Bill, who just decided he was going to tell me his life story and walk away. Being a creepy stalker, I followed him back to his place in Goldenrod. AND THE RESETTING BEGAN. I hate how it's an 85% chance that Eevee will be male. I hate how it's like that with the starters, too. I know it's because the programmers don't really want breeding, but a) a lot of Pokemon, Eevee and Chikorita for example, don't look like they'd be mostly male, and b) FRUKING. DITTO. We're gonna clone them if we damn well please anyway, so give me a proper gender ratio so I don't have to reset my game twenty million times to get a female Eevee!

Actually, on my first playthrough, I got a female Eevee on my first try...

But yes, Robin has now joined the team. As you can see, I didn't even start the grueling training process. What is she going to evolve into? Well, you'll just have to find out! But here's a hint: My favorite Pokemon ever is Umbreon. And if you read my first part carefully, you'll know what to make of that hint.

Well, that's all I did today. Yeah. But since I'm here, I'd like to put something related but not quite here. I had a dream last night that involved a few Pokemon characters, including Saturn and Mars from Gen IV. But the thing I remember most is walking into their hideout and Petrel, of all people, walking up and giving me a hug.

...uh, Petrel? Like, creepy purple-haired Team Rocket guy? Hugging me? ...and it was actually kinda sweet of him? Oh god, expect to hear a lot of this when we actually meet him in this playthrough. I do love Petrel though...BUT WHY DIDN'T PROTON HUG ME?! No offense, Petrel, darling... ^^; (takes her villains too seriously)

And that's all for now. Ciao~!
