Let's Nuzlocke Pokemon Emerald Part 2: War Against the Coons

Oh hey, welcome back :D

Nice long episode this time. Dunno if most will be this long, but I want to catch up to where I am in-game as soon as possible ^^

When we last left off, we just got some PokeBalls and were about to catch some new friends. After all, Ergo can't do this alone!

But first...



Yay, now we can run! Because apparently Pokemon Trainers can't run at all without shoes. Its like a bad Nike commercial or something.


So, we can now run over to Route 1 to catch..


A Poochyena. Hmm, well considering its the first route, that's good enough for me ^^



Ima name her Lassie. Dunno why, just thought it would be fun. And she's Impish too.. hmm that's not very Lassie-like, but ah well. Welcome to the team!

Now for Route 3..



Sweet, a Wingull. Now i can Fly later in the game. Pretty awesome. Although i do have a water-type already.. but who cares. Named her Skye.. because its fitting for a flyer.. and i had Phoenix Wright on the mind. Good ol Ema.


And hey, annoying plot reason why I couldn't go to Route 2 before fighting May is done with his footprint thing. Or he just left for a second. Oh well, i'll just ruin the footprints anyway because I can. >:D Even more friends to be caught! What'll it be?



Heck yes, Lotad! Oh wait, that means i'll have three Water Types... well crap. But its a freaking Lotad, who cares. (Besides, at least none of them are weak to the same water weakness.. Lotad and Wingull can cover grass, and Mudkip'll be immune to electric soon enough :D). Guess i'll be a water trainer.. with a dog? I dunno.




Oh Rafael (named after a certain tennis player I was watching when I caught this :D), you're so Sassy. And awesome. You'll be around for a while.. I hope..


Anyway, time to grind :D

A critical hit? Wait.. what?

...

SKYE NOOOOOOO! Crap... i've already lost one... and she was going to be my Fly user... damn it...


Rafael gets revenge.. but its too late... freaking Zigzagoons... :(

Anyway, all three remaining Pokemon are now at a decent level. Lassie learned Howl to complement its Tackle, and Rafael has Absorb, Astonish, and Growl. Ergo has been good to go for a while. So its time to face our first trainer.



Yea, you should have. Seriously, there are wild Pokemon here almost as strong as yours..

Just a little more grinding before we head to the next town. Ready to go.

Ah cool, wonder what he has..

... I hate you..At least those stupid Rattata-wannabes can help Lassie learn a new move.

Nothing can stop my rage against Zigzagoons. NOTHING.

Skye.. I only fought one Pokemon with you, but you will be missed.



We've made it to Petalburg. Wonder what the people are like here?

Riiiiiight... Either they're weird or they're devoted to showing off how the graphics have improved from 2nd gen games. OMG, we has water reflections now.

Hey, the city has a gym though, that can't be too bad. First gym battle time? Oh wait.. Petalburg City... that's where our dad is supposed to be Gym Leader.. darn it. He'll probably want to give us some menial task instead.

Side note: if the dad lives in Petalburg, why did the family move to LittleRoot? Especially since only the dad had Pokemon at the time, and going into wild grass without one is supposed to be suicide. Riiight..


Yep, menial task. We have to watch this kid catch a Pokemon. And here I was, so glad that the game realized we weren't idiots and knew how to catch Pokemon. At least this time the game tries to disguise it. Oh well, that can't be too bad, right?

Oh, but the kid needs to borrow a Pokemon from Daddy first...

... I hate you both. How could you betray me father?



... I hope you and your stupid Zigzagoon get mauled by a Poochyena..

What?! A Ralts? On your first try? You lucky... at least you won't be able to catch something like that..

... Damn it

Well whatever, we finished our menial task. Let's go get a badge from Dad..
... or not. Apparently he thinks he's too good for us, so he's making us go to Rustboro instead.


I'll play your little games father.. and when I come back... watch out. Ima beat you and your Zigzagoons.


I haven't played Emerald before, so I have no idea what this was all about. Dude has some odd shades though.

Onward to Route 104. Hey wait, that means we can catch a new Pokemon!


A Wingull! Yes, another chance! This time I won't let you down!

What the hell Rafael?! H-how could you do that to me?!

Oh well, I love Lotads more than Wingulls anyway, so I'll forgive you :D

Oh hey, Ergo learned a Water move.

Fisherman look weird in this game :/





Hmmm, surely this cottage couldn't be important sometime in the near future, right?

Oh look. Rich people. Surely she'll have something cool.


Oh come on...

:/ Seriously? Full Restores? On that thing?

Just die..

a.) That makes no sense.
b.) I hope not.

Anyway, we're here at Petalburg Woods. Which means another new teammate! Who will it be? Can we survive the woods and make it to Rustboro City? Will my hate for Zigzagoons ever cease?
Find out next time!
-Part 2 End
