Can you put each chapter in a spoiler....
You don't know how i'm suffering because every time a image loads. The page goes down by a bit and THERE IS ALOT OF IMAGES LOADING.
Please?

Might as well, because next episode will contain LOTS of images. I just don't feel like splitting this episode into parts.

This episode is on shorter side, but it contains a question (wow). I apologize for the delay, but double posting protection protected me from uploading this.

I suggest Shinra or Sylvan, just because they sound really cool

This is probably the longest episode yet. It contains Route 204 and Route 203.

The previous episode was too long? Well, that one is way shorter. I should have probably split previous episode into two, and merge that one with previous, but oh well. This time I capture something.

Nothing special happens in this episode (yeah, I know that I'm lying - there is actually something).

Now, for longest battle evar (at least for now, I'm sure that longer battles will happen). I actually wanted to do it in previous episode, but now I'm glad I did it now.

This thread isn't really active, so perhaps I will put the first screenshot outside of spoilers to make it more interesting.



That would be Onix. I got this proposal from Polari, who definitely watches Naruto too much .

You waited for it, and it finally did happen. Seriously, I need to bring activity here, considering that previous day, the only posts were in staff forum (and it possibly would happen today too, if not this post).

Before I will start the episode, I've one message to send - after some discussion, the Pokémon IRC channel was created. After lots of Pokémon discussion in #nsmbhd, it was decided to move it somewhere else. The new channel is #pkmnhd, and you can access it by typing /join #pkmnhd.

I decided to check my team's type coverage, now that I have six members. The Bidoof is HM slave, so I practically have just five, but it's not that it does matter. There are 17 types, and I'm going to ignore multiple types for now (even if those technically could break this coverage - it's not that you can cover against stuff like Spiritomb anyway). In this, I assume that Pokémons are at their highest evolution stage, and I use STAB moves.

Type
Pokémons
Normal
OVRKuramii (Fighting)
Fighting
Uccello (Flying)
Flying
Manda (Rock, assuming I won't evolve her)
Poison
Manda (Ground)
Ground
Sylvan (Grass), Ojama (Water)
Rock
Manda (Ground), Sylvan (Grass), Ojama (Water)
Bug
OVRKuramii (Fire), Uccello (Flying), Manda (Rock)... wow, that's all weaknesses
Ghost (rarest type)
Steel
OVRKuramii (Fighting, Fire), Manda (Ground)... and this is defensive type?
Fire
Manda (Rock, Ground), Ojama (Water)
Water
Budew (Grass)
Grass
OVRKuramii (Fire), Uccello (Flying)
Electric
Manda (Ground)
Psychic
Ice
OVRKuramii (Fighting, Fire), Manda (Steel, Rock)
Dragon
Dark
OVRKuramii (Fighting)
Fairy
Uhm...

This coverage needs some improvements. While those types are rare, this doesn't have super effective attacks against Ghost, Psychic, and Dragon. For Dragons, I may want some ice type. Some dark or ghost type would be nice too, to battle against ghosts and psychic (preferably dark type, because ghost is weak against ghost). Ojama could be easily removed from the team, as it doesn't offer any coverage. Uccello would be nice to remove too, but I probably would need some Flying-type to use HM02, which could be helpful on the way.

Sadly, unlike third or fifth generation, in fourth generation Dark-type mons are relatively rare. No Purrloins or Poochyenas to help you on the quest. Lack of protection against Psychic worries me, because one of Elite Four members uses Psychic Pokémons. Then again, now that I think about it, Giratina is Ghost/Dragon, which should improve coverage a lot (too bad this type won't lower the damage, but Giratina is a wall anyway, according to base stats - high HP, and defense statistics). And Giratina will appear for sure, it's Platinum after all.

But enough talking. Ojama will disappear for sure in the future, but as for now, I guess it's finally time to continue the playthrough.

It was a week since last update. What caused this delay? Uh, blame my school. No, seriously, blame my school. Or alternatively, blame me for delaying this update a week after making screenshots. Anyway, uh, now that I have Rock Smash, I can access Floaroma Town.



So exciting!

Guess what? More flowers, just in case you haven't saw enough.

Also, yes, I catched something in this episode, and I want a name for it.

Long time no update. Does something happened or why don´t you continue? Just a question.

Yeah :-(. Problems with image host which was really slow. I already uploaded images one month ago, but I didn't get to make update (they download really slowly). Anyway, the new update should have screenshots on new host.

Thanks for suggestions. Sadly, I already made this update one month ago, I just didn't update this. One month delay. Yeah, I know, huge delays. Related to school, among of other things.



This name was proposed by Polari.

I'm going to announce the failure of this run. Lately, I wasn't updating this run, mostly because of school, but there are other reasons. The latest schedule slips caused me to lose the interest with this run. I don't think I would finish this run in the future, so might as well stop it now.

For people wondering how I would evolve Onix, the answer is simple. There is a bug in fourth generation where if you put your Pokémon under impossible conditions so it won't be traded by accident (Lv9 or under Monferno, anyone), make any trade, and then try to get your mon back, it evolves.

I made screenshots for this update, but making screenshots isn't even that bad - the worse thing is actually writing a post. In this update, I captured a Machop, and evolved Chimchar into Monferno, as well as defeated grunts in the Valley Windworks (with exception for Commander Mars, which had too good Pokémon to defeat him without grinding).

So, that's it, the thread may be closed now. Thank you for reading my run.

Overkill? Sure, why not.


I never knew that wings were dangerous weapons.

I never knew that wings were dangerous weapons.

Wing Attack is not a particularly dangerous attack (base 60 power) with 100% accuracy, however it's very good at this point of game (where attacks like Tackle have base 35 power and 95% accuracy).

Now please note that HP bar was in red part, because the previous Starly's attack dealt half of the damage on already weakened opponent. Considering that the hit was critical, it dealt double damage. To add to damage, Starly gets same-type attack bonus, increasing damage by 50%, making the effective base power 180.

Starly Wing Attack vs. Stunky on a critical hit: 33-39 (84.6 - 100%) -- 6.3% chance to OHKO

Ok, perhaps it's not as powerful, but please note that the opponent was on low HP. The statistics above are for full HP.
