>>54365820With the woodcutter's doll in hand we were able to forge our way to the shores of Misty Lake. A quick trip around and we got to our quarry. During this time our whole team evolved! Evolutions in this game are neat. Each mon has three mechanically unique forms to turn into. These can range from upgraded versions of the base mon to type changes to complete overhauls into something new. The sheer variety this brings to the game is staggering, especially from enemy trainers. From now on I'll be writing the style next to the names of mons so you can look up each member on the wiki if people give a shit to do so.
Before the mansion though we paid a stop to a mysterious cabin in the bamboo forest and travelled to the moon! In the depths of space we encountered Hecatia, a crazy 1% chance encounter. Her base stats are absurd and I've always wanted to use one on a run.
Our team then invaded the Scarlet Devil Mansion, going up against its many protectors. In the library we were attacked by Patchouli who one shot our starter with an unexpected fire move. Yumeko was a valued member and physical powerhouse. It was a real blow to the team. Hecatia sadly joined the squad as we pressed on.
The rest of the team carried us through the rest of the mansion to its owner, Remilia. Unbeknowst to me she's been buffed big time in this expansion rocking 5 mons instead of 3 and all of them evolved.
It was a really good fight. Every single member of the team pitched in and proved they earned that spot. Second gym badge acquired with no deaths.
