Wew lad.
The plan was:
>level everything to 29
>defeat chuck
>defeat jasmine
>move on
So I got everything to 29, I faced Chuck, spammed aerial ace and won, because the opponent was stupid enough to keep trying to use focus punch.
After that I returned to Olivine City, took the medicine to the Ampharos, and then went to face Jasmine.
I remembered those two gym leaders being pretty much the same in levels.
>jasmine sends out Magnemite, i send out DownSystem
>knock it out with a single magnitude
>opponent sends out Steelix
>it's level 35, since when was it that high
>try to use magnitude
>magnitude 4, does barely nothing
>the Steelix's defense is so high that arguably my currently strongest Pokémon doesn't hurt it at all, unless I get lucky
>''should've thought of that''
>steelix uses iron tail, over half of my Golem's health is gone
>fug
>switch to D4C, hope to get the Steelix paralyzed with static
>he hits iron tail, my defense goes down
>use growl, the opponent uses iron tail again, this time gets paralyzed
>switch to Turisas to lower Steelix's attack further with Intimidate, finish him with a few surf
Even the Magnemite almost fucked me up, since I was a little worried to switch right back to DownSystem due to the low health, and then when I switched to Rhapsody instead, the opponent's Thunderbolt did insane damage and instantly paralyzed him.
So in the end things worked out, but I got a little scared that I'd made a grave mistake underestimating Jasmine.
