ss anne rival wasn't...actually that bad, i forgot that he's pretty low levelled compared to surge, so i just went straight to the level cap of 24 before fighting him. after assembling an army of glooms, all fairly bulky, it was just a matter of hitting sleep powders a lot and swapping around to get off different status ailments.
surge likewise wasn't bad, was a bit worried since i know from personal romhacking experience he actually has full heals, and the raichu has double team, but ivysaur just took out his entire team without swapping out.
erika was surprisingly kinda rough, mostly since i didn't want to evolve all of my glooms to get moonlight a bit later, since A. my poison and leech seed chip damage strategy didn't work against vileplume or victreebel while she could get free paralyses off on me, and B. she has good potions while i have none. the vileplume did come kinda close to killing something but didn't.
feel like this run will get a lot more rough now, but we'll see, i guess
>>46125364>>46124985not only is that a shit ton of options to deal with the milotic, the poster below you is right - close combat does comparable damage to leaf blade and if you use psycho cut first you won't bait a recover or anything
>>46125596should be clean cut anon, you got this
