>>28169583Progress report. Trained a bit on lower Route 20 and caught a Horsea off the small lip curb in the south part of the city just enough north that you aren't in the complex.
Dunno if that's excessive rules lawyering or not, but the game apparently thought so since once I was in the worksite proper, an area crawling with growlithe and other actually decent mons, my first encounter was a fucking voltorb that I couldn't even catch due to a crit.
I'm stopping for now, taking on Roxie's gym next time, hopefully won't get destroyed by her like I did against Cheren on my first attempted run.
