>>56924870Tate and Liza's battle, an Inverse Battle, went absolutely perfect
Each turn, two kills
Choice Band Guts boosted Facade destroys Claydol, Reuniclus, and is super effective against and crushes Lunatone
Typhlosion's Eruption wipes out their Mega Slowbro, a Ground Gem boosted Earth Power to take care of Exeggutor, and then one more Eruption to melt away Solrock
That was probably the easiest fight yet, even if it required me to go out of my way to fight an optional boss first
And in my last attempt at this, Swellow had long since died, at Lilycove rival
Now I know what it's capable of
We're in the endgame now, but we still have one last showdown with Team Magma and then Aqua coming up
But I can go get a few more encounters right now (underwater, Seafloor Cavern), and activate Sootopolis City's Fly point for later
