Well, as I promised, I beat Morty and his manscarf into the ghostly dust, mostly thanks to Chopper, whose Pursuit carried me more than halfway through the battle. I replaced SonicBoom with Pursuit, which is the only move change that I've made. So, after that rather quick gym battle, I took off on the extremely long, grueling, tiresome, horrible, WHOLE TWO SCREEN trek to Olivine City. My rival decided to show up and call me weak once more, despite the fact that I've beaten him three times now...Silver, learn to count...Learn to THINK...

After being informed that a sick Pokemon was atop the lighthouse, I climbed the whole thing, dropped out of a window halfway down, then climbed up again, only to be told, "Ooooooooh, my Ampy needs some medicine...Go get it!" -_- And so, my quest for the pills began, as I crossed the ocean and decided to pick up my new party member along the way.

...Only to run into a few problems. Actually, just one. I WAS MISINFORMED. AS USUAL. I checked Serebii.net, and it said that special HM moves needed was Surf, and nothing else. Well, apparently they were talking about the inside of the cave, since Whirlpool IS required to get into the Whirl Island. Derp. But, fed up with my setbacks already and not feeling like waiting for my last party member until after the seventh (or was it eighth?) gym (I recently did that with my Black version, and MEW ABOVE did it annoy me.), I decided to have my brother catch a Horsea for me in Whirl Islands in his HeartGold version, which he has basically completed. And thus, Sanji was traded over to my game, and I now have a seahorse! :D

Somewhat cheap, I know, but I wanted a Horsea, and I wanted one now, and I didn't feel like getting a new Pokemon in its twenties when all my other Pokemon were in the forties and fifties. It's going to be a bit easier to catch Sanji up now than it would have been then. And that's that. Oh, and just before I ended up, I landed on Cianwood Island and have seen Suicune but have not approached yet because I ran out of time. So tomorrow I will see Suicune, beat up Eusine, and then train a bit before taking on the Cianwood gym! See ya then! Ciao~!
