>>39980235So I remembered that Japanese Blue actually has a Mr. Mime for trade by the Diglett Cave, which works out great since Jigglypuff was easily encountered in Route 3, which had already exhausted all other encounters beside it.
With Marcel on the team, we went through Rock Tunnel, where Marcel accidentally killed my Ditto encounter. Later I captured a Growlithe, but he died to a Gastly shortly after.
Managed to catch Arkansas in the Tower, and with the newly acquired Flute I woke up Snorlax to get the Super Rod and catch Oregon. Also picked up Georgia and evolved her into Jolteon. Full team get!
The game really opens up after Surge, kinda freeing compared to future gens. Anyways, Erika was kind of a joke thanks to Marcel even if he was disobeying me a bit.
Time to grind up everyone to face what are in my opinion the toughest gym leaders Koga and Sabrina.
