Looking around Pewter City, it was a bit disappointing. The Pewter Museum wasn't really accessible, and there wasn't anything I could really do here. I traveled to Pewter Gym. I know this Gym was predicted to be tough. If my team was at the same Level (Level 55), I would use Pokemon like Donphan, Ampharos, & Gyarados. However, because I was focused on not over leveling the obvious battlers here, I ended up using a unique duo, Gyarados & Crobat. I know, shocking, but stick with me. Let's go!
I beat the trainer buddy with Gyarados, preparing to take Brock on. I opened with Gyarados against Graveler (Level 41). One Surf, and an OHKO. Next came Omastar (Level 42), one of the two Pokemon you have to watch for in this fight. Surprisingly, I sent out Crobat. Crobat essentially stalled out Omastar, but Omastar used Surf and Spike Cannon against Crobat using Wing Attack and Bite. Crobat came out on top, and got to Level 55. I had to hurry and get Crobat out, switching back to Gyarados. Onix (Level 44) was OHKOed by Surf. Next came Kabutops (Level 42), who is Super Dangerous to any Water Type that you might use against Brock, since it can use Giga Drain, Fantastic coverage! My Gyarados came out to battle Kabutops, since I pretty much stall it out. I just simply used Hyper Beam, which has become my utility attack when I get stuck. Kabutops was beaten in an OHKO. I finished his Rhyhorn (Level 41) in a single Surf. I now have my 14th Badge!
My Team after this was:
Typhlosion (Level 55)
Beedrill (Level 55)
Donphan (Level 55)
Ampharos (Level 55)
Gyarados (Level 55)
Crobat (Level 55)
What to do now? I initially planned to go after Ho-Oh due to getting the Rainbow Wing within Pewter City. The problem is that Ho-Oh is Level 70! I thought about maybe training on the Elite Four until my team was ready to hunt Ho-Oh, but I actually want to have my Team naturally level up (as much as possible) at least until I beat the Gyms and have to get ready for Red. We will be continuing the story for a while yet. In the next Log, we will be going through Mt. Moon. Until the next time, we will see you!
