    I finally got the chance to battle Anabel for the Ability Symbol. She sent out her Alakazam first, and I used Swampert. It was a good thing that I had Swampert, since Anabel's Alakazam specialized in the elemental punches. Once Alakazam had been knocked out, Anabel sent out her Snorlax. I didn't think it would be so much trouble, but it defeated Swampert with Body Slam. I used Metagross against it, and I was able to deal a lot of damage to it before it used Yawn. Metagross fell asleep, so I used Salamence instead. I beat Snorlax with Aerial Ace, then Anabel sent out her Entei. I was on the verge of winning the battle, when Entei used Roar, and Metagross was sent out. Entei defeated Metagross with Fire Blast, so I only had Salamence. I defeated Entei eventually, and I won the Silver Ability Symbol.

    After getting the Ability Symbol from Anabel at the Battle Tower, I decided to take a quick break from battling, since I wanted to capture some more Pokemon that I hadn't captured before. I flew to Mauville City, and I left a Spheal and a Numel that I had captured before, at the Day Care Center to train. I then headed back to Mauville City, and I went south towards the Cycling Road area. I used Surf, and I Surfed towards New Mauville, which was located on an island in the water. I entered it, and I searched for a wild Magneton. I encountered other Pokemon like Magnemite and Voltorb along the way, but no Magneton appeared. I eventually settled on a Magnemite, and then I flew to Lilycove City. I went west towards the Safari Zone, and I paid the fee when I got there. I captured a Houndour and a Shuckle, then I saved.

    Restarted Ruby last night. I picked Torchic, as in the past I've found Combusken to be extremely useful against Norman. I knew this basically meant that the Stone Badge was out of the question until it evolved, but I went with Torchic nonetheless. Proceeded as normal, got the Pokédex and some Poké Balls, and caught me a Zigzagoon. In R/S, even a low-level Zigzagoon can get good stuff with Pickup. Rare Candy, Protein, Full Restore... Yeah. Also makes for quite the useful HM slave. Except I train my whole team equally, HM slaves and all. But anyway. Yes. I proceeded onward, defeating trainers, and reaching Rustboro City. Once there, I had decided to go and catch a Whismur for my team, as I've never used one before. En route, guess what pops up? A Skitty! Never EVER used one of those before, so I figured, why the hell not? Caught the Skitty. Usually I only go for male Pokémon unless it's a genderless or female-only species, but for some reason, I decided to make an exception for Skitty.

    Checked out my new Skitty, turns out she knew Attract. Started training her against the trainers on the Route where I caught her, Attract worked wonders on the opposing trainers with male Pokémon. Eventually, with every trainer and multiple wild Pokémon defeated, I decided to tackle Rustboro gym. Even though Torchic hadn't evolved.

    Geodude was easy enough to take down. Skitty and Zigzagoon bombarded it with Growl attacks, then I brought in Torchic; Rock Throw and Rock Tomb did almost nothing. Torchic unleashed multiple Ember attacks, bringing Geodude down. I started the same thing with Nosepass (both Geodude and Nosepass were female, so no Attract from Skitty), but Torchic fell to a critical hit Rock Tomb. Thought I was screwed at this point, seeing as how I only had a Skitty and a Zigzagoon left. But to my great surprise, between Skitty's Tackle, Zigzagoon's Headbutt, and a couple dozen Tail Whips from both, Nosepass went down.

    Blah blah Team Magma, blah blah Devon goods, blah blah letter, blah blah Steven, blah blah made it to Slateport. Caught an Oddish. Trained it against the local trainers (Torchic evolving in the process), and backtracked to Dewford to kick Brawly's ***. This time was much easier. Wore down Machop with Skitty's Attract and Growl, then brought in Combusken, Focus Energyed up, and destroyed Machop and Makuhita with critical hit Peck attacks.

    Went past Slateport, destroyed May in battle, continued up to Mauville, got the Mach Bike, proceeded to destroy the local trainers. Zigzagoon evolved in the process. Made some Pokéblocks, fed them to Skitty, and dominated the normal rank Cute Contest. Went back for the Exp. Share. On the way back to Mauville, took out the bike path trainers, and my Exp. Share-holding Oddish evolved here. Saved in front of the Winstrates' house.

    Team:
    Gloom (male) lv. 21
    Brave nature
    Absorb
    Sweet Scent
    PoisonPowder
    Sleep Powder

    Skitty (female) lv. 21
    Calm nature
    Tackle
    Attract
    Assist

    Impish nature

    Cut

    Combusken (male) lv. 22
    Sassy nature
    Ember
    Double Kick
    Bulk Up
    Peck

    I flew to Lilycove City to shop for items at the local Department Store. I left to the Battle Frontier after that, and I decided to challenge the Battle Pyramid next since it seemed like a challenge. I entered the facility, and I withdrew Metagross, Raichu and Sceptile from my PC. I then started the challenge, and I wandered around the first floor of the Pyramid. I collected some items that I stored inside the Battle Pyramid bag, then I encountered a trainer. We had a quick battle, then I found the special warp tile that sent me to the second floor of the Pyramid. I battled even more trainers there, and then I collected some items. I also ran into some wild Pokemon as I reached the center of the floor, but I managed to find the warp tile eventually. I traveled around the various floors until I reached the end of the challenge.

    After my first round at the Battle Pyramid, I decided to take a quick break to capture more Pokemon that I hadn't yet captured. I flew to Mossdeep City, and I purchased some Dive Balls there. I then headed to the shore, and I Surf until I reached a dark spot on the water. I had my Swampert use Dive, then I wandered around the seaweed in search of a Chinchou. I captured one eventually, and I planned on evolving that into a Lanturn. As I made my way to the opposite side of the seaweed, I encountered a wild Relicanth. I was happy since I had released my previous Relicanth on accident. I tossed a couple Dive Balls at Relicanth, but those didn't work. I had to weaken Relicanth slowly, but that proved to be hard. I got its HP down to the red zone eventually, and I tossed another Dive Ball. I captured it, and I saved.

    After capturing some Pokemon underwater, I decided to head back to the Battle Frontier to finish the Battle Pyramid challenge that I started last week. I entered the facility, and I challenged it for the second time using a team consisting of Metagross, Swampert and Starmie. I was given the Battle Pyramid bag, then I was sent into the Pyramid's maze. I was able to find the first warp tile without encountering a single trainer, but the second floor was much harder to navigate through. I battled some trainers as I wandered around, and I also encountered tons of wild Pokemon. I eventually reached the third floor, and I collected some items. I battled my way around the third floor, and I made it to the fourth floor. I had to use some of the items that I had collected so far to heal my Pokemon, then I rested.

    I beat Norman and got surf and the good rod. After that I caught a carvana, corphish which I'm using now instead of marshtomp, a goldeen, and a barboach. I then trained corphish up to lv 30 then it evolved. The last thing I did was go to the new mauville and caught a voltorb and a magnemite.

    I continued to climb the Battle Pyramid, and I encountered more and more wild Pokemon as I climbed higher. I battled tons of trainers on the last floors of the Pyramid, and I finally managed to reach the Pyramid's summit. I returned to the lobby, and I decided to try the Battle Arena again since I didn't want to struggle through the Battle Pyramid again. I entered the Battle Arena, and I entered the competition with Starmie, Steelix and Jolteon. I struggled through the first battles, but things got a little easier as I progressed through the challenge. I managed to defeat seven trainers in a row, then I entered the competition one more time. I was able to pull some great victories, and I eventually managed to defeat another seven trainers. I deposited Steelix and withdrew Metagross, then I saved the game.

    Emerald: I've been doing Frontier challenges. The betting guy wanted me to do some Arena battles so I did some but got defeated after Metagrosd was sent to sleep.

    I'm currently doing some Multi Battles to scout for my 50+ apprentices in the tower. I may do some single battle challenges and try to battle Anabel. I do find it a bit annoying when I've mixed records with lots of people and trained many apprentices and neither show up in the Battle Salon.

    I'm currently using:

    Metagross @ Choice Band
    - Earthquake
    - Sludge Bomb
    - Psychic
    - Meteor Mash

    Salamence @ Scope Lens
    - Dragonbreath
    - Aerial Ace
    - Earthquake
    - Brick Break

    Tyranitar @ Quick Claw
    - Blizzard
    - Crunch
    - Rock Slide
    - Thrash (May change for Fire Blast)

    I also encountered Tyrese, a new Black Belt apprentice to train. He's on Open Level.

    I switched to Ruby version really quickly, and I went to Meteor Falls. I used Waterfall to climb the waterfall inside the cave. I accessed a new area, and I wandered around for a while. I battled several trainers, then I found the cave that I was looking for. I encountered two Bagon inside the little cave, and I captured them both. I then left the cave, and I flew to Fortree City. I headed towards Route 119, and I searched the tall grass for a wild Tropius. It took a long time for one to appear though, but I captured it when it did. I then headed towards the river's edge, and I fished around looking for a wild Feebas. I must've spent an hour searching through the water for one, but I eventually encountered some near the base of the waterfall. I captured three Feebas, then I saved at the Weather Institute.

    Well, I restarted Emerald, this time on a mono-earth run. Rock, Ground, Steel only. Got Mudkip, ran through easy for awhile. Grabbed a Nincada after my first badge to combat May, beat her. Caught an Aron in the Dewford Cave, beat Brawly. Beat Team Aqua goons, beat May again, beat Wattson. Went back to Dewford, got a Nosepass, worked for hours SRing for a Modest one. Taught it Shock Wave. Beat Winstrates, got Secret Power, bought TMs for Hidden Power. Trail and error say that Nosepass has HP Psychic, about 40 Power. Aron's is Ground, about 60 or so. Marshtomp's is Fighting, no general Base Power determined.

    Three Badges.

    Pokemon Using:
    Nosepass (F) Lv 31
    Modest

    Marshtomp (M) Lv 29
    Quiet -Soft Sand-

    Aron (M) Lv 31
    Sassy

    I headed to Route 120 after I captured some Feebas on Route 119, and I searched the tall grass for a wild Absol. It took around 10 minutes for a wild Absol to finally appear, but I captured it with a single Great Ball when it did. I then headed over to the Safari Zone to stock up on Pokemon that were only found in that area of Hoenn. I paid the fee, and I was allowed to roam the park in search of rare Pokemon. I captured a Pikachu and a Wobbuffet in the first area of the Safari Zone, then I headed towards the back of the park, and I encountered a wild Dodrio. It fled after a few rounds, but I managed to capture a Pinsir after that incident. I also captured a wild Heracross and a wild Seaking, then I left the Safari Zone. I bought some items at the Lilycove Department Store, and I saved the game at the Pokemon Center.

    I caught a Trapinch after dealing with Flannery and Team Magma, it's Naive, seems to have an Electric HP as it did not affect sandshrew. Better than I could have anticipated
