>>53622596Unfortunately for Effie, she'd very quickly be reminded of why she paused her journey in the first place.
>Battle: Flannery!Her challenge started out swimmingly. Shrug singlehandedly took down Flannery's Numel and Slugma with almost no issue, trading blows and standing tall. He even took down most of her Camerupt's will to fight!
Unfortunately, however, that Camerupt's Overheat was far too strong to let that continue... and a critical hit took Shrug out just as he was about to deal the final blow.
Butch was sent in next to properly take the camel out, and she did!
Before immediately falling to the Torkoal that came next.
Setting up Sunny Day spelled the end for her, and prompted the Torkoal to go on a rampage.
Minnie came out to quell the beast- but the combo of that Overheat and the Sunny Day was just too strong, and she was quickly taken out too.
By the time Doris finally took out the Torkoal and earned Effie her badge, both girls were sobbing wrecks. Half their team lay in shambles before them... and those that remained were of the weaker half.
And so it followed for the next week or so. Desperate attempt after desperate attempt to get a good team going, to train up what she had with what little training fodder there was- only to lose a member or two through no fault of her own.
Effie was going to have a very, very long journey ahead of her...

please send help
My entire team is grossly underleveled for Norman and the only training options I have left are in the fucking Trick House (which are also underleveled and give almost no exp)
I only have 3 rare candies
I have more dead mon than alive
And my only options for coverage need a fuck ton of exp to get up to speed and are mostly subpar outside of two poison types that would add to my type overlap problems if I used them both
I'm pushing through regardless but this is probably the toughest nuzlocke I've ever done, and that's including the billions of tough BW ones and my few Platinum ones
