shamanicshayminMy mind is clearly not wired for binge-watching; I've caught up rewatching five episodes of Evangelion before I started getting a headache. It's the same with books, I get reader headaches if I read a whole bunch of pages in one sitting. No wonder I struggled catching up with studying in university.
While I feel like I'm hitting a mid-life crisis yet again in my mid-30s, here's my current Blue Kaizo progress.
New Recruits
Dinner the Farfetch'd (Who we likely won't use)
Beak Squad the Dodrio
Jevil the Mr. Mime (Which I was NOT expecting. We have a Psychic now! :D)
Evolutions
Falco to Fearow (Another first! I was always more a Spearow fan than Pidgey, but I never made it to Fearow until Kaizo. His Drill Peck is amazing)
Glenn to Poliwrath
Alan to Arcanine (it was a hard choice between him and Shiori the Vulpix, but the latter had such a dismal defense stat and I already had a fast Fire type in Lorenzo)
Rumika to Vileplume
Poggers to Sandslash
Aelita to Clefable
Lorenzo to Rapidash
Remy to Raichu
Lorenzo is incredible and knocked out all the trainers in Nugget Bridge and after, I love him so much. It always baffled me how Ponyta never learns Flamethrower by level up, and even in the D/P/Pt days, it didn't take long for me to box Ponyta in favor of the Chimchar line (or some other fire Pokemon through trade, because Sinnoh is allergic to fire types for some reason) because Ponyta took forever to evolve. But in Blue Kaizo, Ponyta and Rapidash finally get to live up to their potential by not only being an early-game mon, but actually learning Flamethrower. I hope I'll be able to use Lorenzo throughout the game and maybe even the Elite 4, though I'm not getting my hopes up knowing how brutal late-game will be. ;;
Sahaquiel and Rumika were the MVPs during the grind, and the latter took out a good half of Misty's Pokemon before falling to Ice Beam. Remy cleaned up after, and he didn't need Sahaquiel's help either~ So that's the Cascade Badge on the first try!
