I've been grinding at mt silver. Trying to get my low level pokemon I never trained to evolve. I also on a losing streak at voltorb flip.

[Ciccone]

I healed my Pokemon at the Olivine City Pokemon Center after my battle with Jasmine. I bought some items at the Poke Mart, then I fished around the water for a wild Krabby, but I gave up after a few minutes when one didn't appear. I headed north after that, and I stopped by Moomoo Farm to feed an Oran Berry to the sick Miltank there. I battled some wild Pokemon in the tall grass on my way to Ecruteak City, and I stopped by the Pokemon Center when I arrived. I swapped Pokemon, then I headed south to collect some Apricorns. I went south to National Park, and I wandered around there for a while before I finally returned to Ecruteak City. I went through the gatehouse to the east of the city and I arrived at Route 42. I found the Shadow Claw TM on the ground, then I met a Hiker who exited Mt. Mortar. He gave me the Strength HM. I entered Mt. Mortar after that, then I saved inside.

You can buy a kings rock at the pokeathlon when you have enough points. The items you can buy change daily, not sure on which day the king's rock is up, but that's how I got mine.

You can get King's Rock in Slowpoke Well after being able to use Surf outside of battle.

I wandered around Mt. Mortar and I battled some wild Pokemon. I was lucky enough to encounter a wild Marill inside, so I captured that. I eventually ran into some trainers, and I battled them as well. Unfortunately, I couldn't access all of Mt. Mortar since I didn't have the Waterfall HM, so I went around the cave until I exited on the other side of Route 42. I battled some more trainers there, then I arrived in Mahogany Town. I healed my Pokemon at the local Pokemon Center, then I swapped Pokemon. I headed outside again, but there wasn't much to do since the local Gym was blocked for the time being. I headed north toward Route 43 and Lake of Rage, and I battled some trainers in the grass there. I also took the opportunity to train my Pokemon. I eventually arrived at the lake shore, and I Surfed until I came across the Red Gyarados. I battled it and I saved after I successfully captured it.

Pewter Gym was easy. Rock types have so many weaknesses that only Sulad the Magmortar didn't have a part in the battle.

I deicded that the game needed some challenge, so after making my way to Pallet Town I decided to do all of Kanto's sea in one go. All of Route 19-21, including the Seafoam Islands and the gym with no pokecentres in between. The biggest challenge here was not running out of Repels. I reached Fuschia with 2 left after expelling 20 or so exploring everything. Also PP became an issue as well, tapping into my Ether/Elixir store. On the bright side, I got a ton of Pearls in the Seafoam Islands.
Oh and the Seafoam gym was easy. Yeah, Fire types aren't the most challenging, as they don't have much type variation that affects the types' weaknesses.
Off to the Viridian gym to take on Blue, then I'll gather the gym leader's phone numbers and grind for E4 round 2, but not before exploring the rest of Kanto and everything accessible by Rock Climb.

I returned to the lake shore after I captured the Red Gyarados, and I met Lance there. We talked and I headed back to Mahogany Town to help solve the crisis there. I healed at the Pokemon Center when I arrived, and then I entered the little shop in town. Lance was there already, and he uncovered the entrance to the secret underground base where Team Rocket was hiding or whatever. I went inside and fought some Team Rocket grunts the moment I stepped in, and I went around trying to get to the next floor. I made my way around the Team Rocket hideout and I battled some Team Rocket grunts and I obtained the passwords as well. Lance caught up to me and he helped me defeat Ariana and some Team Rocket grunt. When we defeated them, we gained access to the next room. Lance told me to help him defeat the wild Electrode that were being used as a power source. I saved.

[pug6666]

I made bidoof my hm slave. I'm looking for heart scales in the rock tunnel since they seem to be there more. I am planing on making my mantine learn bubble beam again because now I have an HM slave for waterfall.

[Ciccone]

I battled against the three Electrode on my side, and then Lance gave me the Whirlpool HM after that. I headed out to Mahogany Town after that was done, and I healed my Pokemon at the local Pokemon Center. I went to Mt. Mortar after that in order to train my Pokemon some more, then I returned to Mahogany Town to challenge the Gym for the Glacier Badge. I battled the trainers in the first room after sliding around, then I headed into the next room and I eventually reached Pryce's location. I challenged him and I defeated his Seel with my Ampharos's ThunderPunch attack. I switched to my Ninetales when he sent out his Piloswine, and I won that match with a few Ember attacks. I sent out my Haunter when Pryce sent out his Dewgong. Haunter got hit with Ice Shard, but Haunter's Shadow Ball attack was enough to defeat it in the end. I saved after getting the Glacier Badge.

I recently started a new file and reached Azalea Town.

I start off by helping Kurt take down Proton and his goons, I proceed to explore Ilex Forest after a heated battle with my rival: Cornell.

After playing tag with the Farfetch'd, I obtain Cut, I can't use it yet though.

Next stop: Bugsy!

[Ciccone]

I left the Mahogany Town Gym after I earned the Glacier Badge from Pryce, and I headed out to the Pokemon Center. But before that I got a call from Professor Elm about Team Rocket's strange radio broadcast. I entered the local Pokemon Center after that, then I healed my Pokemon and I flew out to Goldenrod City after that. I couldn't access all the buildings since Team Rocket grunts have invaded the city, but I did manage to access the Underground Path and obtain a Team Rocket grunt costume. I headed out to the Radio Tower, but my rival stopped me before I could climb. My disguise was foiled, so I had to battle my way around the tower. I left to heal my Pokemon quickly, then I got back up the tower. I found a dead end since I needed a key to access the area, so I headed down the tower and out into Goldenrod City again. I went back to the Underground Path and I saved.

[Aurath8]

Beat Blue. He was actually fairly challenging because all my pokes were level 51-2. There were some smart moves on his part: He switched from Arcanine to gyarados to take on Golem and Pidgeot screwed me up with Whirlwind, but otherwise it was wholly enjoyable.

Met my rival at Mt. Moon. Didn't expect him, so I was very overlevelled by this point. I'll meet him at the Dragon's Den later and then beat him one last time at the Indigo League. I don't know how I'll manage to beat Lance's lvl 75 Dragonite, or why GF thought we could manage this before our pokemon were lvl 60 or something.

Got HM08 Rock Climb. Now I'm going to explore all the various places which require that HM.

[Ciccone]

I arrived at the Underground Path and I entered the room with the different switches. But my rival appeared before I managed to change the layout of the room. I battled him and then I proceeded to change the switches. Some opened paths while others closed them. I battled against some Team Rocket grunts as I moved around the room and then I eventually found the right pattern of switches. I went through the locked door and I battled my way around until I found the director of the Radio Tower. I set him free and then I got the Card Key that would open the locked doors at the Radio Tower. I headed over to the Department Store's basement and I headed to the local Pokemon Center to heal my Pokemon. I went back to the Goldenrod City Radio Tower after that, and I arrived at the locked rooms. I used the Card Key that I had received to unlock them, and I saved.

[ShinyUmbreon189]

Arrived in Goldenrod City, then went to heal my Pokemon. Went to the bike shop to get my bike then to the radio tower to get my radio card. I answered the 5 questions right and got the card, Whitney then gets surprised that I won and said she thought it was apricots and said she's the gym leader. I went to the gym and battled some trainers and used super potions on them to prepare for Whitney. Whitney chooses Clefairy so I send out Bayleef. I take it out with Magical Leaf and she sends out Miltank. I use Poinsonpowder and the berry hears her. She uses Stomp, so I use Poisonpowder again and poisons it. I then use a 4 potions in a row because Miltanks faster than me. I ran out and then tried to use Synthsis but she got a critical hit (go figure) I then send out my Geodude and use Magnitude. It's a Magniture 7 and it doesn't quite kill it. She keeps using stomp and my last Magnitude takes her out. Whitney starts crying like a little ***** so I leave and a lady stops me and said she always crys when she loses. I go back and get my badge and then heal my pokemon at the pokemon center.

[Ciccone]

I headed up the Radio Tower and I battled Proton. I defeated his Golbat and Weezing with my Magmar and Golem, then I battled Ariana on the next floor. I used my Golem against her Arbok, then my Fearow against her Gloom. I defeated it with Aerial Ace, and I defeated her Murkrow with my Raichu's Thunderbolt attack. I headed to the observation deck after that, and I met Archer there. We battled and he sent out his Houndour. I used my Golem's Magnitude attack and I beat it. I then switched to Magmar and I defeated his Koffing with Fire Spin. I used my Poliwhirl against his Houndoom and I won that battle with Surf. I defeated him and he fled the tower along with the other Team Rocket members. The director of the Radio Tower appeared and I left the tower after getting the Wing item from him. I healed my Pokemon at the local Pokemon Center and saved before going shopping.

[Street Comedy]

Holy ****, Whitney's Miltank took 30 minutes to defeat, thank God I paralyzed it with Volt, my Flaaffy. ^u^
I retrieved Kenya to send the mail, participated in the Pokeathalon and that's all I did. ;_;

[Ciccone]

I visited the Goldenrod City Department Store and I stocked up on items there. I headed over to the GTS building after that and I left a Pokemon for trade. I headed south and visited the Day Care Center as well, and then I defeated that it was time to return to Mahogany Town and continue my journey. I flew there and I headed out to Route 44. I battled a few trainers when I arrived and then I fished in the ponds there. I didn't find any good Pokemon, so I used Surf and accessed the little piece of land in the middle of the ponds. I captured a wild Weepinbell and Lickitung there, then I finished battling against the other Gym trainers in the area. I registered a few phone numbers in my Pokegear and then I entered Icy Cave. I slipped around the ice and I battled some wild Golbat and Swinub. I decided to stay there for a while and train my Pokemon, which were a bit underleveled at the time.

[Nana]

I never finished my SoulSilver game, so I thought I'd go ahead and do it. When I turned on my game, I had no idea where I was because it had been so long lol. My team right now is:

Meganium
Seadra
Umbreon
Skarmory

I've been meaning to get a Wish Eevee, so I'm first going to breed one of those and add an Espeon to my team. The last slot will be for Hitmontop, which I can't get until I beat Clair... which I also can't do right now because my Pokémon are only in level 35. Argh.

[ShinyUmbreon189]

I went to the flower shop to get the squirtbottle for the weird looking tree blocking my path. I battle quite a few trainers on the way but no issues there. I finally manage to get to the tree, I save the game and then use the squirtbottle. The tree I guess get's angry and attacks and it's Sudowoodo. I beat it up a little bit and get it's health down and throw Great Balls. Caught him on my third try. On my way to Ecreteak City I run into a few more trainers. I hated those Clefable's and Wigglytuffs. I make it into Ecreteak City and walk into the Pokemon center. Up ahead is a conversation between Bill and Nurse Joy, Bill then tells me a bunch of garbage that I wasn't paying attention to cos I've been through it 100x in my life xD. Go up to the nurse and heal my Pokemon. Leave the Pokemon center, get on my bike and head back to Goldenrod City. Went to Bills house to get the Eevee and now I'm riding up and down the long stretch to get Umbreon at level 6.

Wait til next time for more of ShinyUmbreons SS playthrough.

I battled some more Pokemon on the first floor of the Ice Path, then I slid around the ice and moved to the lower level of the cave. I eventually picked up the Waterfall HM on my way down, and I battled some more Pokemon on the next floor. I found some boulders and I pushed them through some holes with Strength, and then I picked up the Avalanche TM. I eventually headed down and I finally arrived at the exit, but a lost Kimono Girl was there and I had to push her off the ice. She left the cave and I arrived in Blackthorn City after that. I headed to the local Pokemon Center as soon as I arrived, and I healed my injured Pokemon there. I visited the Poke Mart after that and I stocked up on items. I wandered around Blackthorn City after doing some shopping, and I eventually arrived at Clair's Gym. I went inside and battled a couple of Gym trainers, but then I left to do some more training.
