>>37171643Last update before I take on the Elite Four.
I made a few new captures in some routes I hadn't gotten around to, and from there spent time working on how to proceed. Sadly I had to box Swalot - she'd been a mainstay for quite some time, but had fallen behind the rest and I did not see her being of much use in the League matches. Fortunately, in her place I brought in Hariyama and Lunatone, and spent time along with the rest training them up.
Had numerous options when it came to move loadout and the like that made it difficult to settle on, but I went with what I felt was the best possible selection. Swampert is the primary attacker, mainly for the likes of Drake and Steven, but also to swap in whenever things get intense for anyone else. Altaria helps to provide some defensive bulk while also providing counter against Drake and Steven should the need arise. Electrode is going to be focused on Glacia's Water-mons as well as Sidney's Sharpedo and Steven's Skarmory.
Sharpedo's got Phoebe and her ghosts covered, as well as also contributing to the anti-Drake and Steven offense. Hariyama will get to square off against most of Sidney's team as well covering bit of Glacia and Steven. Lunatone I don't expect to see much of, but is a handy back-up for if and when shit gets real and I lose someone.
'Ere we go, lads!
