[The feed opens on Apollo sitting against a tree in Goldenrod, holding a shiny new Plain Badge and Rock Smash HM. A pile of empty Potion spray bottles is visible beside him at the edge of the frame. For someone doing a badge post he doesn't look that happy. He seems more worried than anything.]
I don't get why the badge is supposed to be the important part. The HM is more useful.
[He glances off-camera at something for a moment before looking back and getting to the reason he's making this post.]
Are all the gym battles this hard? Everyone fought really hard, but if that Miltank had lasted much longer they would have lost. They're all pretty tired after that battle, but even though it was really close this time they still want to try and beat the gym in Ecruteak City after this. I'm not sure anymore. If they can win here can they win at the Ecruteak City Gym?

The Ecruteak City Gym is supposed to use Ghost-types though, and three of the Pokémon with me are Normal-type and have mostly Normal-type moves. They all have a few that aren't at least, and two of them have Dark-type moves, which are supposed to be strong against Ghost-type.

Date: 2012-09-06 04:04 am (UTC)Fearow's Normal- and Flying-type, Furret's just Normal-type, Sawsbuck is Normal- and Grass-type, Golett is Ground- and Ghost-type, and Combee and Vespiquen are both Bug- and Flying-type.
[He made sure to memorize his team's types, if nothing else.]
If Golett fought it would be weak to everything, so it probably won't be able to help much.

Date: 2012-09-06 10:18 pm (UTC)Golett might be at a disadvantage because of it's type, but he also might have an advantage if he's fast or strong enough... otherwise, I guess you'll have to rely on strength and speed in general.

Date: 2012-09-07 03:17 am (UTC)All of the Pokémon with me are really fast except for Golett and Vespiquen. Fearow and Sawsbuck are the strongest.
