>>45979837Beating Pearl for the first time. I'd been throwing myself at the Elite Four over and over for a fair while at that point, whether I was at school or at home or even at a store, and finally I managed to beat Cynthia while I was at a friend's house with my mum. I remember running upstairs and excitedly telling my mum that I finally beat the champion, even though I'm sure she had no idea what I was talking about.
