I can't post screenshots cause I'm playing on the actual cartridge.

Progress:

4 Pokemon (and lolBidoof)

2 Gym Badges

1 death by hax crit

Immense rage at trying to find a Gligar and all of them having a -Attack nature

Immense joy at the Gligar I ended up using having a perfect strength IV

Update on my progress:

~Fantina's Mismagius was total bullshit like usual. A Pokemon that out-speeds everything, 2HKOs everything at worst with Shadow Ball, is difficult to even 2HKO cause your best option is Bite/Feint Attack with no STAB, and spams Confuse Ray which means a reset if you miss the coinflip chance to hit Mismagius instead of yourself more than once is sure fun to fight, yep.

~Went out of my way to get the Razor Fang just past Veilstone City cause it's nighttime and Gligar could evolve. My freshly evolved Gliscor walled Maylene so hard it was hilarious.

Behold the second update of SHIN. Last time we got a pokemon from some old dude and beat Horace who probably has both ADHD and Diabetes.

Stupid ginger know it all.

Ha, like I'd tell my mother anything!

platshin%2017_zpskkya64df.pngplatshin%2018_zps8cafypni.png

In my utopia there will be no overbearing mothers... or gingers.

platshin%2021_zpsirk6ycfz.png

There was probably a bake sale going on nearby.

platshin%2027_zpsimk685hv.pngplatshin%2029_zpsrytn5hod.png

I frequently forget what I've just done, this should come in useful.

platshin%2029_zpsrytn5hod.png

That's great, I don't remember everything I do sometimes!

platshin%2029_zpsrytn5hod.png

Cool! My memory slips once in a while!

platshin%2031_zpsy4jwnyiz.pngplatshin%2032_zps5dmw4667.png

Nice attempt at guilt tripping me, but that involves caring!

platshin%2035_zps05xdamyp.png

Horace and little do not belong in the same sentence.

platshin%2039_zpsvoqclat0.png

My attempts at stealing Horace's package for myself were thwarted.

platshin%2040_zpspgjwbepm.png

Why yes, I do.

platshin%2041_zps0amficaz.png

I hate you.

platshin%2051_zpska7k9qgk.png

LIFE LESSONS FROM SIGN POSTS.

platshin%2055_zpszsh0in2q.png

Long story short, Cowabunga wrecked everything.

platshin%2059_zpskg0haev2.png

Foolish ginger, I didn't draft any of the early ones!

platshin%2061_zpsmzdpm5ke.png

NO, NOT MANDATORY EDUCATION.

platshin%2067_zpsieisuhqh.png

This might explain how all the evil teams escape justice, the police are even worse.

platshin%2073_zps45b2aqih.png

It's not stealing if you never get caught!

platshin%2074_zpsffiq1lcy.png

Please, who do you think taught me how to steal?

platshin%2080_zpsjirwxwef.pngplatshin%2081_zpsekq5q08h.png

This guy couldn't even catch Agent CAMTECH.

platshin%2084_zpshuqk5vxw.png

In that case...

platshin%2085_zpslnecj1le.png

Suck it, Horace.

platshin%2086_zpszs29eknu.png

NO, NOT RAILROADING.

platshin%2088_zpsux2ymfna.png

My attempts to find a way to escape were rewarded with this.

platshin%2094_zpsn5y26lqk.png

SWANKY.

platshin%2095_zps9ysedfgv.png

NO, WHY. IT HAD A GOOD NATURE TOO.

platshin%2096_zpsetstlu9z.png

SUITABLE REPLACEMENT.

platshin%20105_zpsmebg2dst.png

It has EVOLVED into the superior inferior cocoon.

platshin%20108_zpssyvaaohe.png

Ha, the concept of either Horace or I studying pokemon AMUSES me.

platshin%20114_zpsa0iyqjvc.png

Horace's mother knew sending him one packed lunch wasn't enough.

platshin%20119_zpskunbpmju.png

A poke-itch?

platshin%20123_zpsbagnpk9p.png

In that case...

platshin%20125_zps7cbghri0.png

NOT AGAIN.

platshin%20129_zpsxvu97bgu.png

It legit took me ten minutes to find the last clown.

platshin%20134_zpswpwgepeb.png

I hope it can play POKEMON GO.

platshin%20136_zpslxptziyj.png

Obligatory RIVAL BATTLE.

platshin%20141_zpspfhshn7f.png

I feel this match up isn't in my favour.

platshin%20145_zpspi6mtdak.png

I found a HARD solution though.

platshin%20146_zpszykntubp.png

NO, IT WALLS MY ENTIRE TEAM.

platshin%20151_zpssfehe19h.png

Pro strats.

platshin%20153_zps8e6plgwb.png

For some reason Horace kept using leer in response to me using harden.

platshin%20156_zpsjdh2sf0u.png

DOUBLE KO.

platshin%20157_zpsfht1zuxp.png

Horace so bad, he lost to a COCOON.

platshin%20158_zpsajyinh97.png

Such a FAT LOSER.

platshin%20163_zps3d5awxua.png

TARGET SPOTTED. Unfortunately I have nothing to stop it.

platshin%20165_zpsy4scztnw.png

SICK STRATS.

platshin%20167_zpsghaf7hzu.png

Fun fact, Abra got a -SpA nature.

platshin%20177_zpsmynzyc3t.png

The tactic continues.

platshin%20191_zpsehs7tnf9.png

Such a potent move.

platshin%20199_zpsuplgv7ri.png

NO, THAT'S MY TACTIC.

platshin%20201_zpsklqvwkq7.pngplatshin%20204_zpsjnc3mbwc.png

FINAL FORM ACTIVATED.

platshin%20205_zpslfcqihni.pngplatshin%20206_zpssvjfphhq.png

Wow, it's actually really bad. WORTH IT.

platshin%20208_zpsgw0f8gvj.png

SHINtertainment cannot be rushed!

MY FIRST UPDATE

WARNING LARGE IMAGES

9874ab94bbad5abe965bcf2b10b086c1.png

Every time i used leer, RIVAL SHIN used Growl. It's like we were intentionally using awful moves to make the loser feel worse.

Of course the loser was SHIN. I picked Chimchar because my first two drafted dudes are grass and water, he's a NEUTRAL NATURE.

After finding some clowns and not reading the plot, our brave hero travels to Jubilife and finds some clowns to get a FANCY WATCH. I was too lazy to draw that though. I like how you can just mash A through the clowns questions and you'll get them all correct since they're all "yes" answers.

then we fight SHIN again after getting a Budew:

101c70735ce3f7fe07744603a4166e27.png

Somehow a level 8 Budew beat Starly and Piplup. I blame INCOMPETANT TRAINING from RIVAL SHIN.

After picking up PSYDUCK in the cave to Oreburgh, I challenged Roark, too lazy to evolve chimchar since Budew and Psyduck both are super effective against Rock.

1c5176c361dfa4ffb5cc03ac732405eb.png

I'm really proud of that Geodude drawing

Then some GRADE A BULLSHIT HAPPENED and I missed stun spore and got either flinched or critted by every Cranidos attack and it wiped me :( I rechallenged him and somehow Budew beat Cranidos at level 13 or something, I think I got a mega drain crit and it got twoshotted.

The Galactic bossfights are actually kinda tough at the start of the game, Skunk and Fatcat are really strong at this point of the game. I sacrificed Psyduck to Purugly after disabling scratch and using tail whip, then Monferno (an absolute abomination of a drawing btw) 2 shotted it with Mach punch. Purugly turned out way better than expected.

My MOTH is a vital part of the team, since mine has to be superior to SHINS, so I waited on three Honey trees for Burmy.

TREE 1

TREE 2

TREE 3

a0e05c6ceebef884119b553b0500b970.pngWORTH IT

Chansey is the worst partner in the double battle sections, at least egg bomb is super strong so it isn't totally useless. And you don't need to keep yourself healed, which helped immensly in training burmy, since it's totally useless till level 15 when it gets bug bite.

Then it was time to fight Gardenia after picking up Meditite from the grass east of town. Moth evolved and learned hidden power, and I was initially super salty, but it turned out to be hidden power ice, so it totally ruined the gym, especially since Gardenia couldn't touch it:

Thankfully i'll be able to keep reusing drawings, although the final evolutions are way harder to draw, if you thought Monferno is bad wait for infernape......

Just realized I forgot to colour in Chimchar's eyes, no wonder he looks terrifying
