Caught a Meowth today by the Decartton Docks, decided to name him Mr. Meow. Mr. Meow exhibits an incredible amount of confidence, in fact, he won’t stop winking at me. I checked to make sure there isn’t damage to his eye, but it appears fine. Perhaps this uncanny boldness is characteristic to the breed of Pokemon, or perhaps it’s specific to Mr. Meow. May need to compare him to other Meowth for rigor’s sake.
Watched Darcy battle against some Magikarp today on the edges of the docks. I’d never actually seen one in the flesh, but my parents used to talk about how common they are back in Johto. Her Rockruff made relatively easy work of the first one, as it simply flapped about pathetically. It was kind of sad actually, the thing definitely doesn’t appear to thrive on land. The second Magikarp however managed to pull off some Water Guns between the flappings. Her Rockruff certainly didn’t like it, but managed to more or less shrug it off. Darcy caught one as well... Doesn’t seem to do anything interesting? I kinda like it though… It’s odd but I mean, look at its face!
We have three Rockruff among the party. I’m gonna watch them kinda carefully to see if there’s any major differences between them. Darcy's Rockruff, Floofers, is pretty strong looking as is.
As we were making our way back to Decartton on Route 2, we found ourselves faced off against a Bidoof… I think. The Pokedex said it was a Bidoof, but lord Arceus, this one was ugly. It wasn’t like any other encounter yet… It just sat there in the road, almost waiting for us. Personally, I wasn’t fully sure it was alive, until out of nowhere it tried to tackle Travis. He caught it. I’d say more but well… I attached a picture. Let me know if this counts as something unusual as far as Pokemon go.
Pokedex Entry #??? – Pink Common-Speaking Nurse
This powerful Pokemon, who seems to not know anything but the complexities of the common language, continues to elude me. Eponine says it’s something called an, “Audino,” but frankly I’m with the Pokemon… I dunno about that.
I was wiped out today by a trainer with a Snubbull and a Bidoof. My team was able to take the Snubbull without too much difficulty… but the Bidoof rolled out all over us. I need to train more, I can’t let myself just get beaten like this.
