And while I'm taking a little breather from my Heart Gold run, I've reached that most bothersome of side-diversions in FR/LG that has separated Cindar, Noif, Soelvie, Ouhmnia, Aiimskamba, and Oukskeks from the rest of the Zodiac Generals and their reserves: Bill needing us to do a favor...!
Progress: The Pokemon mansion has now been explored, and Sabrina and Blaine have been vanquished--though not without great pains and a loss...!
Sabrina's ghost trainers were anuses because I had to play around their Gastlys having Destiny Bond (who knew a move from Base Set Pokemon TCG would come back to bite me repeatedly...), and her Alakazam nearly made my heart stop, had I not seeded the Alakazam and got a lucky Giga Drain crit before her repeated Calm Minds nearly destroyed me.
Blaine, meanwhile, took the joint efforts of Cindar tanking Fire Blasts until it ran out, Soelvie dropping an intimidate and a cheap shot with Dig, and the noble sacrifice of Alzphalzv falling to a powerful Bite, to defeat the Arcanine.
Now, adrift in some Sevii Island nonsense that made me wish the Holon region was an actual in-game region, one can only wonder...
...Would you be soft-locked if you went to One Island without a Pokemon on hand that can Surf?
