I swear dude, caves are the worst. But, they've got some of the coolest Pokémon in them, and I'm a fan of hiking, so I usually find myself travelling through them often.

Now, in case any of you aren't familiar with caves, deep vibrations like that wake up Pokémon sleeping in the dirt... which is never good.

I had to sit in the river until they all decided it wasn't worth it anymore.
I'm pretty sure one of them was Hasty, since it almost hopped in after me before realizing that I was in the water.
I've got a few more stories from that trip to Sinnoh. It was fun, of course, but that wasn't the last encounter I had that didn't end well.
