[Apollo doesn't fully understand why people make badge posts, but his team is resting after the battle so he might as well, right? He definitely needs to do something to calm down after spending the entire battle worrying about his team's safety. Plus there's something he wants to check on.
So the video opens with a shot of Fearow, Furret, and Sawsbuck resting in the Ecruteak park. In the background you may catch glimpses of Combee gathering nectar from some flowers and Vespiquen hovering nearby. After a moment of this the camera whips around to show the Fog Badge and Strength HM he won in his hand, then moves to show his face. He looks like he's doing better since the last badge post he made.]
It took two tries, but they managed to beat the Ecruteak City Gym. The Pokémon there have some really strong moves, especially the one that makes other Pokémon faint after a while. I almost couldn't call Fearow back in time, but I kept them all from fainting, so it worked out.
They want to try to beat another gym so I was thinking we would go to the one in Olivine since it gives two HMs. I was wondering though, how much longer will it be until the first snows come? It feels like I'll have time, but I want to make sure.

He's a Sawsbuck. They're Grass- and Normal-type Pokémon. He joined me when he was a Deerling.

[Video]
Date: 2012-09-25 02:38 am (UTC)I met him when a bunch of Deerling visited the area from somewhere farther away. I haven't seen any in the wild other than that time.

Date: 2012-09-28 07:55 am (UTC)Hm! I wish I would've caught one. Maybe they'll come back and I'll be able to catch one.

Date: 2012-09-21 04:29 pm (UTC)They are, but they did most of the work and took the hits, so they should get most of the praise.

Date: 2012-09-21 04:21 pm (UTC)[He says that as his Haunter swoops out in front of him and takes up... most of the screen. Hey, it's a 5'3'' floating head, after all!]
...Phantom, knock it off.
[Phantom responds with some white noise before, reluctantly, moving out of the way.]
Anyway, if you're headed to Olivine, you might want to grab a fire type first. And as for snow... I'd give it another two months. It usually hits around November and December.
[Video]
Date: 2012-09-21 04:45 pm (UTC)Oh you have a Haunter with you too.
I've met some Fire-type Pokémon in Mt. Mortar, but none of them wanted to come with me. One of those "Move Tutor" people taught Fearow a Fire-type move called "Heat Wave" though. It's been helpful, but the burns it causes look painful. [The look on his face shows that he doesn't like the Burn status effect for that reason.]
Months are the same thing as lunar cycles, right? Two of them feel about right with how the weather is right now.
[Video]
Date: 2012-09-21 04:49 pm (UTC)[That's right, bub! C'mere, trainer, have some obnoxious hair ruffles. Bleh, heh, heh!]
Heat Wave should help, but Jasmine's got a Magneton and Steelix who can do a number on flying types.
[Still, Riku remembers that Apollo's views on Pokémon differ from most folks.]
And yeah, months are basically the same thing.
[Video]
Date: 2012-09-21 07:02 pm (UTC)[Also he has Lea's Growlithe in his box (which he doesn't know about yet) which will help, but this is really a bad match-up for him.]

Sometimes you can turn the tides by making it seem like your Pokémon's out of their element. Throws people off.

Date: 2012-09-28 04:09 am (UTC)[He really should have sat down and looked through everything on the gear already.]
