>>57406693>How is Quilfish keeping up?Well, about that
Barely 5 trainers or so after the last update Tex-Mex managed to fall to an untimely crit Selfdestruct, which I'm sure was barely a KO even then from the level difference and Tex-Mex's decent Defense, but nevertheless that prompted some restructuring. It's not like I was at a loss for Water encounters, but none really appealed at the moment so I decided to axe my Union Cave encounter (which realistically would've been the Friday Lapras) to get myself a Kabuto egg. It's definitely playing a bit fast and loose with the rules, but after the thousandth nuzlocke or so I welcome a bit of fun and fresh air.
The rest of the Rocket detour went completely unremarkable, and Lady Ma'am had a wonderful gym debut where she bulldozed her way through all the dragons (and faux-dragons) of Blackthorn Gym, securing our 8th badge. Now there's just a few more levels of grinding standing between us and the league, exciting times!

>>57406965Seconding what some others have said, USUM can be brutal if you don't prepare and/or you don't get real lucky with your encounters, the fact that many trainers have EV trained mons makes those games real scary. Also XD Gale of Darkness can catch you real off guard at times, I remember my first attempt my graveyard was probably 1/3 the available mons
