Because of Yayan's (my bf) brotha, Otep and Jouzan, my pokedex is now 84%!

He was upset though because he was sure that he had an electivire, magmortar, tangrowth, drapion, sawk, cradily, hippowdon, and probopass; all of which I still need for my dex. As he recalled, after he trained and traded these pokemons, he went to hunt for more pokemons to fill his dex. He fell asleep while hunting since it was already 4 in the morning. When he woke up he found his 3dsxl with empty battery. He doesn't seem to mind it then, but now looking back, he doesn't remember if he saved before it went out!



Now, I promise to save my game before I go to sleep, to not have the same fate as Otep.


Also last night we tried online battle just to know how many eggs I hatched. I already hatch 2,014 eggs! I wonder how many of those are charmander? probably more than a thousand.

The mods say he's 2spooky4me, and I must admit the moment I saw that he was labeled as such, I thought he definitely did something 2spooky.
But now I think he's misunderstood. For he's such an awesome fellow! He's like @Justin level awesome! ("slightly" above @PKPatriot56)

He helped me a lot in my quest for the shiny charm and I only gave him my charmander army and a few of my deinos!



I really wish to repay his kindness. But sometimes kindness needs no repayment. Sometimes it just needs to be passed on. Now I'm gonna look at some people hoping to get the shiny charm to help them.

I also decided that one of my pokemons needs to be blessed with a name after him.


@terrorkid94
A hero lurking in the shadows, waiting to offer help to those in need.

Yay! Welcome @"le2017"

I've been focused these past week in completing the dex and finally getting the charm. With the help of awesome people, I managed to get the 90%, faster than I thought I would. It gave me hope that I'll be able to do it at Pokemon Day.




Aaaaaaaaannd...









I failed.



I'm down to 13 now: porygon2, delcatty, the 4 regis, mothim, tangrowth, electivire, magmortar, musharna, cubchoo, and kyurem. I have the basic and the necessary items to be held for electivire, magmortar, and porygon2, I just need someone to touch trade with; I can then breed or wondertrade, cubchoo and mothim; I just forgot to train tangela so it's pretty easy to have tangrowth; while the regis and kyurem I plan on hunting last.

The problem with delcatty and musharna is I don't have moonstones. I've been asking my secret team to look for stones, but they didn't find any moon stones.

Speaking of moon stones, I heard there's a holiday travel promo to another region. Moonstones I saw some videos and flyers around Mauville City while I was riding my bike looking for the Massage shop for my buneary.

I haven't been to all the other regions, only here Hoenn and Kalos, but I dream of touring around the globe to see the awesome places and catch every pokemon. I'm sure to go there wherever it is this December. My calendar is marked! I'm so excited!!!

Today is an awesome day!!!

People are posting in holocaster about celebi sightings in Kalos and Hoenn Regions.



So I tried looking for one, unfortunately, I didn't find any. I think they're not in my area yet, I'll try again later or tomorrow.

It's pretty weird though, celebis are pretty rare. In the span of 20 years, it's only the fifth time that such sightings occurred in my area. Rumors say that these "voice of the forest" are able to travel through time and exist simultaneously throughout time so I think it's kinda weird to see a lot of them at the same time. Maybe it's their mating season or something, but then again, I don't think they breed. People tried to put two celebis before in the daycares hoping for eggs to no avail.

There's also another rumor that may be possible. 20 years ago, Professor Oak, the famous professor from Kanto, succeeded in creating the Pokedex. It's a device that can store info about pokemons. Before Professor Oak invented the Pokedex, people have no proper documentation of the Pokemons. Unfortunately, filling the dex required field work. The professor is kinda old that time and very busy with his other studies, so he just gave the task to his top three students at that time. It was a guy named, Red, who completed the Kanto region first. After that, the device became a hit, after upgrading, they distributed it to other regions as well. First to their neighbor region, Johto. I think our region came second.

Eh? Why am I recalling my history lessons again



Ahh...

The rumor. The mind of a person is really interesting. Sometimes, train of thoughts just comes rushing through your brain that you forget about some things and you get caught in deep thoughts that sometimes lead to being existential. Maybe the philosophers are...

...


...I did it again, darn it.

Back to the rumor: Folks in Kanto are saying that Professor Oak is close friends with THE celebi. That back in his younger years, celebi used to be with him. Apparently, one of Prof's assistant, Tracy, saw an old sketch of pikachu and a blurred pokemon somehow resembling celebi in Professor's old storage when they were renovating their lab. Tracy, also a sketch artist, is really convinced about it and went to confirm it with the professor. However he didn't get any answers. Ash; also a famous guy from Kanto, as he always finish top cuts in leagues (and at different regions) and his unorthodox way of battling; seems to know something about the rumor. But he too, just avoids the question everytime it's brought up. Tracy posted this picture and it went viral in the social medias.

Well it's kinda hard to tell.









So anyway, while waiting for celebi sightings, I traded porygon, electabuzz, and magmar. I'm finally down to 5 pokemons! The regis and kyurem.

I knew I need some synchronizers in my team to have a great chance of catching the legendaries with my preferred nature. I searched through my box, and found a bunch of synchronizers. However, I'm missing one with impish nature that I need for regigigas and registeel.

So I gathered my hunting team, now with new members, to look for a synchronizer abra in the Granite Cave. Here's my team


thanks robin1291 for the pic
Trace, my level 1 ralts, he's still a newbie, but he's important to the group for ensuring that I'm catching a mon with synchronize.


Shadow Tag, my Gothitelle, aside from preventing mons to run away he also paralyzes them for the team.


Anbu, my ninjask, my old hunting partner. She brings mons down to 1 HP using false swipe (amazing how precise she is). She also knows cut and thief.

and last but not the least


Sweet Scent, my surskit. She's there to attract wild pokemons using her sweet scent.



After looking for abra in the cave for a few minutes, I'm thinking of looking for ralts instead. Hmm...

[jouzea]

@"le2017" Bijou FTW!!!

4/3/16

Hehehe... I now have an ARMY!!! Well, I recruited an army of different natured synchronize ralts.

So now my Utilities Army is bigger! I gave them new code names for added awesomeness.



(badass photo of 4S by SvelteDonut)

General 4S, the leader of the pack. The first mon in this army. Super strong, can push big boulders, smash some hindering rocks, Swim great distance, and has a Secret power (useful in making camps).



(an old photo of the first expedition of Granmap and 3-4)

I know I said army but Admiral Granmap, is actually a retired navy admiral. He will be leading the next mission, Operation: Regis. He is with his trusty vice-admiral, 3-7. These two are veterans, and I'm hoping that they, and the squad can complete the mission



(photo of Anbu after the party for his promotion by saurodinus. Anbu said to delete this photo but I kept my copy XP)

Sergeant Anbu, Leader of the Synchronize Squad. He's primarily the front in hunting missions. A private may lead at first but he'll take over in battles. He has great hunting skills, great at weakening opponents to a pinch. Famous for his False Swipe maneuver. He was a thief in his rough nincada years, now it serves as a very useful skill in the wild. He also cuts the thorn fields so the squad can cross it safely. He's also skilled at finding shortcuts to exit caves.



(photo of Trace Look in his rookie years by mrthesaurus)

Corporal Trace Look, unlike the other private ralts, is tasked to scout opponents to warn the team beforehand about their abilities. He ensures that opponent will not run away using his Haki (others just call it a mean look but I watched a lot of One Piece so I know what it really is)



(photo of then rookie Sweet Scent's saluting at an officer)

Specialist Sweet Scent is Trace Look's partner in crime. He lures horde of opponents into a trap by leading the sweet scent formation.



(photo of the squad goofing off during one of the camps by ed ramos)

Synchronize Squad, best privates for hunting. Some, like Private Adamant, was trained by Corporal Trace look to give mean look to opponents to terrify and ensure that they won't runaway. All are trained to paralyze opponents, heal allies, and are very quick to escape when needed. They each hold an eviolite because they refuse to evolve.




I selected the six that'll be part of Operation: Regis.

1. Admiral Granmap
   
2. Vice Admiral 3-7
   
3. Sergeant Anbu
   
4. Private Adamant
   
5. Private Impish
   
6. Private Calm
   

The mission will commence 18:00 hours, 04 MAR 16.

Anyways, it's a male, so should I name it Bijou or Steevee? I'm a native french speaker and Bijou is a girl name... What do you think @jouzea ?

PS: @jouzea you're now my favourite person for using an Azumarill :D

Unfortunately, Bijou's a girl name. It took me a long time to hatch a female HA hidden power ground eevee, so i suggest go for Steevee. It's a cool wordplay to eevee anyways, I keep reading it as steeeeeeeevee.

General 4S is a dear friend of mine he helped me roam around the region, I'll breed another azumarill in the future with belly drum+aqua jet. I really like it especially in VGC2014, you, @"le2017", have a good taste.

First, the less exciting thing, I won 63 battles in a row at the battle mansion in the super double battles with my squad:

Steevee the Sylveon



George Washington the Bisharp



Leggings the Lopunny



And Thor the Zapdos!






But then, something really fun happened!

I thought about getting an Aegislash for a while and I finally got one with a Quiet nature to breed with. After three eggs only I got a shiny Honedge!!!

I was really excited about it sine it was the first shiny I ever got while breeding since I don't have the shiny charm and I went to check it's IVs with the Judge. He was there near the map in the Battle Resort's Pokemon Centre as always. I showed him the blood-colored newborn Honedge, and he gave me his verdict. It had perfects IVs in HP, Atk and Sp. Atk! While not being the best, it was still pretty good and I still plan to use it from time to time. Even though it's not perfect, it is in my eyes. ^_^

Then, I went to the facility where you can do the famous Battle test to see it's IVs at level 50 and it's other IVs are all around 15 so it's really not that bad since Aegislash has huge base defences in Shield form.

What?!?!? After only 3 eggs?!?!?!?!? You have some insane luck there. After 10 boxes of hawluchas, I still didn't get a shiny one.

[jouzea]

Wow three eggs, some people have all the luck in the world. Congrats @"le2017"


4/3/16 - 5/3/16

Long did we live here in this cave
All thanks to the powerful Pokemon living alongside us

I gathered the team 30 minutes before the mission. I briefed them for a while then AdmrlGranmap and ViceAdmrl3-7 gave an encouraging speech. Then I made sure to have enough ultraballs so I purchase a hundred of them (I'm supposed to buy more but AdmrlGranmap stopped me, he told me I'm paranoid) in Mauville's shop.



We went to route 134, where the current is particularly strong. I asked 3-7 and Granmap if they can still remember how to get to the chambers, Granmap then tried to remember, but he was alive for hundreds of years, and his process of recalling is starting from his earliest memory. 3-7 said he can't because it was actually his great grandfather, 3-4, that went with Granmap before. His grandfather, 3-5, was supposed to be the next to go to the mission with Granmap, but as Granmap was recalling the directions, a few years already passed and 3-5 had a son, 3-6, 3-7's father.



When I first saw Granmap, he was swimming in one spot, deep in thought, I threw a pokeball and caught him. When I asked what he was doing, he told me he was trying to remember something. 3-7, is now a wailord, a few generations passed and I unknowingly stopped Granmap from searching his memory palace. He now resumed swimming in one spot, deep in his thoughts, just like when I first saw him. I returned Granmap to his pokeball and asked 3-7 to try and find it.



After a few hours of current riding, Granmap went out of his pokeball on his own. He swam without saying a thing and wailord followed him. I wanted to ask, but I kept my mouth shut and tried not to disturb anything again. The current got stronger, but suddenly we were in a calm space. Granmap dove, I wore my aqua suit, then 3-7 and I followed him. Granmap stopped, staring at a huge boulder intently. I thought he was trying to recall something again but when I looked closer there was some dots inscribed on it. The patterns seemed familiar but I couldn't decode their meaning.

There was light directly above us, I told Granmap and 3-7 to resurface. We then found a cave with a lot of stone tablets. They too have the dots inscribed on them. As my team explored the cave, ColTraceLook (now a kirlia) saw something and told us to go to the back wall. It's longer than the messages from the boulders.



We are stuck until we figure out the meaning of those dots. But I don't think we'll be able to with empty stomachs. So I gave the team poke puffs and decided to rest for a while.

6/3/16

Yet, we sealed that Pokemon away, alone in the dark.
We feared it.

SergeantAnbu woke me up from my slumber. Apparently, I fell into a deep sleep after eating, like always. I smelled a faint but familiar scent, and asked the team if they know where it's from. Adamant showed me an empty box of max repel, then pointed to the zubats at the ceiling of the cave.The zubats got disturbed (did I snore?) and attacked us. The team had no reason to engage in a fight, so they just used the repel instead. Hmm so that's why they are camped far from me, they don't like the smell too. *Lol*

The team continued the research while I was asleep. Anbu copied the dots in dirt, and now that I can see it as a whole, it's easier to decode. They separated the codes on the back wall and under water. Unlike these codes, the patterns in the stone tablets are unique from each other. These are likely to be the key to solving the mystery. There are 28 different patterns, but only 26 letters in the alphabet. I still tried the alphabet route anyway, since I didn't see the last two patterns anywhere else, and deciphered the messages. The one under water said, "GO UP HERE", while the one on the back of the wall said "DIG HERE".

I asked Anbu to dig in front of the northern wall. The wall opened and Anbu called us from inside. There were rock pillars telling a story of how they lived in these caves with a pokemon, that they sealed away out of fear. I like the last part of the message as it is promising

If you have the courage, if you still hold to hope,
Open the door. For beyond it the eternal Pokemon awaits.

At the northern side of the room, a message "FIRST COMES RELICANTH. LAST COMES WAILORD." I didn't understand what it meant. After trying a few things (digging, forcing the wall open, etc.), I was all out of ideas and entertained some that didn't make sense. I asked the team to fall in line with Granmap as lead and 3-7 at the back. The team gave me confused looks. I knocked on the wall, and asked "Can my team come in please?". When nothing happened the team and I gave a hearty laugh. But after a few seconds, the ground shook, and I swear I heard a door opened.

I told the team to be ready for battle as the four regis may appear anytime soon. The ground shook a couple more times, and we heard another two doors opened. The zubats inside flew out to the outer cave. I was expecting an ambush from the four regis, and frankly I was scared. We stood there silently, only the heavy pumping of our hearts can be heard. The ground stopped shaking but we still were. My palms were sweating and I almost freaked out when Adamant hid behind my legs.




And then, nothing.



Nothing happened. We didn't see any regis. We sighed in relief and I said that maybe the regis are elsewhere. We went out of the cave and returned to our secret base. (my secret team weren't there initially though)

There I declared the Operation:Regis a failure. It's sad but we can't do a thing about it.
