[Does anyone still read these?]
Today I have made fire. I mean, I have caught Kyogre. I didn't want to use my Master Ball for it, so it turned out to be a hell of a fight.
I decided to bring 3 pokémon I hardly trained, namely Oddish, Gloom and Cacnea. They were lvl 20-26, while Kyogre was 45, so it was dangerous.
- I first brought his HP to 1/4 using Grovyle.
- I switched to Altaria and sang Kyogre to sleep.
- I put out Cacnea and used sand attack to lower the accuracy. I managed to pull off 4 attacks before Cacnea got creamed by Hydro Pump.
- I sent out Oddish to put him to sleep. I tried to steal some HP by using acid, but it was way too slow.
- Pelipper brought Kyogre to just like 4% HP. Then it KOd, got hit by an ice beam.
- Oddish put it to sleep again.
- I threw the first net ball [3x effective on water pkmn], but it broke free right before the end.
- I decided not to damage him, but throw another ball right away. Tadaa! I caught Kyogre.
Now I can go to the 8th gym.
My dream team of Pokémon:
Grovyle lvl 41
Kadabra lvl 41
Geodude lvl 40
Charmander lvl 40
Altaria lvl 39
Pelipper lvl 41
I'm thinking about replacing Pelipper. No offense.
In other news: my brother also started his jolly journey!

Last time I spoke him, he had 2 badges and was collecting pkmn quite enthusiastically!
