    This one was really hard, but I learned a lot from it! Since it got automatically resized, you can click on it to get rid of lineart blurriness. No idea about solutions on mobile, though.

    Heads up: I go back to work full-time starting Monday, meaning less time for art. Updates will slow down quite a bit and I'll likely upload pencil sketches.

     

    J-Awesome_One, then Azeria.

    I WANT TO LEAVE MORE THAN 1 REP POINTS UNDER THIS ONE BUT I CAN'T! 😍 

    Thank you berry much, it's truly an amazing piece of art!!! If I was living in the Pokemon world, I can't think of a pic depicting me better than this! 💙

    I'll spread the word for you, kind artist, among all my friends!

    @Caz Keep up the good job! Real life comes first, just see this as a pleasant hobby and do it at the pace that suits you!

    Besides, if it was possible for me to do a clean Bug monorun in your game, then it will be piece of cake for you to complete this eventually! 😄😉

    LOL, why does Fell Stinger of my Leavanny work like Sticky Web? I'm so happy about this bug, plus Leavanny can learn Sticky Web anyways, and it saved my ass in the battle vs Hardy after Silver peak. By the way, I can't make an ice boulder vanish... I have literally searched every nook and cranny but no un-enabled crystal remains. And I can't get to the top of glacier, where a ladder exists. What is there and how I get there?

    @AlilatiasWow, thanks for the help! Looks like I will get an amazing team soon (well, an even more amazing than the one I already have anyways)! I'm glad that beamer grid exists too, so I can travel easily to previous locations if I missed stuff. I am OK with getting a beating, after all a monotype is supposed to be a challenge. And I had a great time with trying to do what initially seemed to be impossible! It's very rewarding, and satisfies my strategic mind's cravings. XD

    IIRC the sky field powers up Chatter but also removes the confusion effect. Otherwise it'd be way too overpowered.

     

    Oh now it makes sense. Aderyn was OK to deal with, after all, but only thanks to HP Rock Wormadam Trash cloak and Forretress. I also cleared the silver cave, the one with crystal bridges and noticed that Tristan has a bloody Staraptor. The hate towards Bugs continues xD. I would like to get a Dwebble, a Joltik and a Surskit to have stuff to take care more easily of Water, Fire and Flying types, but I am mostly Ok with what I have now. Maybe a Durant would be great to take care of Fairies and Rock types too. But still, not a huge issue anymore. After defeating Connor and Aderyn with such limited options, I am not really scared of anything anymore. As long as I find the move relearner and get access to heart scales tbh. And maybe daycare too.

    Aderyn is down by Bugs! Hidden power rock wormadam took down Chatot first by HP spam. She took out Swellow too with Hidden Power rock alternating with Protect to rack up burn damage on her guts Swellow. Emolga almost went down to Light Screen Toxic Dustox which tanked Air Slashes like a beast, even though the U-turn swaps meant I had to predict stuff. Xatu went down to Payback Forretress and Hawlucha went down to Bide by Forretress, after it tanked two Swords Dance boosted Aerial Ace and Drain Punch like a champion. In the end, she only had her Honchkrow and a poisoned Emolga with a quarter of its health. I only had Forretress, Vivillon and butterfree. I use Explosion with Forretress and let Honchkrow live with a quarter of its health too. But then,before Vivillon uses Draining Kiss, Honchkrow uses Sucker Punch and OHKO es,getting moxie boost. I predict another Sucker Punch,since butterfree outsped it in a failed previous try,and I am right. I put it to sleep with Sleep Powder and use Tailwind to outspeed Emolga too in next turn. Then butterfree finishes off both Honchkrow and Emolga with Silver Wind. It. Feels. So. Damn. Good. Aderyn got outplayed. I needed five lemonades to get the victory, but who cares, her team and field is unfair vs Bugs this early in game...

    Yeah, Desolation's difficulty is currently very front-loaded, especially for your Bug mono-type run. People consider the third gym to be the hardest, but it might be an easier fight for your Bug monotype considering what his ace is.

     

    Also no sand cloak seems like an oversight brought upon by the fact that you're probably the first player to even consider using one.

    Front loaded is an understatement, lol! If I hadn't completed a Bug monotype run of Reborn to have some experience, I would have given up probably... Please tell me that third gym isn't Rock. I will legit die laughing if that's the case. Trash cloak might be better to face Aderyn after all. I need something to tank some hits. I made a casual first try and wormadam took out Chatot easily. Chatter never confusing anyone helps, but I reckon it is a known issue. Plus, chatter is a crime of a move and shouldn't exist, so I won't complain about that. No siree.

    @J-Awesome_OneI checked every cave in game so far and no sand cloak. So, alternative. I checked and got a trash cloak wormadam with rock type hidden power. Metal sound and HP Rock will do some work, hopefully. And I will overlevel Pineco to 39 before evolving it to get Iron Defense. I will destroy that bitch and Caz, the number 1Bug hater.

    Well, I decided not to give up on my Bug Monotype. So I levelled up my Dustox till it learned toxic. It then tanked an Aerial Ace from that Ace Trainer's Fearow, cuz Dustox is a beast and Toxic poisoned it. I then killed Fearow with some Protect stalling by Leavanny and Vivillon, and finally made it alive to face Aderyn. So, I go to train some more and run into Pineco and Burmy in Route 2. HOPE IS BACK PEEPS! I'll keep you updated, it's more fun this way XD. Either I'll do it without hacking or I won't do it at all!

    Yes, I can't even pass the Ace trainer with the fearow in the gym. Time to hack in dwebble and Joltik, this is ridiculous game design. Zero type balance and everyone has a drought vulpix. I get it Caz, you hate bugs and grass types, don't make it that obvious.

    Spinarak (probably) is in the next area, which is accessible after you defeat Aderyn. Unless I remember wrong yet again, there's Yanma in there too.

     

    If you wish to know her team, it's:

      Hide contents

    Xatu, Emolga, Hawlucha, Chatot, Swellow and Honchkrow. She leads with Chatot, Honchkrow is her ace. I don't remember the exact levels, but they're around 31-35 range.

     

    Hmmmm that's a pity... Some priority by Ariados would come in handy. Together with Yanmega's Ancient Power... Now I will have to do the typical Stun Spore, Sleep Powder shenanigans again... And hope that some of my special attackers have good Hidden Power typings... But I expect it to be hell even passing through Chatot. Especially if it has Chatter.

    Sorry for double post, but new question. So, first gym leader is fire Connor in Charlotte's blazing field practically. Then, fiery Vejyr cave. And second gym leader is flying, Aderyn? Caz must truly hate Grass and/or Bug types... Unless I am mistaken and we don't fight Aderyn for a badge yet...

    @ArcherEric @BRS swag I had cleared vejyr when I sent my previous message. It wasn't that bad, Vivillon butterfree duo cause they don't get field damage. They carried me. But true, that cave is hell. I laughed ironically when ava asked me to do the battling cause her grass types can't take the heat. LOL, as if my bugs were more suited for the job XD

    @BRS swag Thanks! Well, I am kinda the bug junkie of the forums, so I just had to use bugs. You sound like a forretress kind of guy! Both tanky and shares the bug typing.. Eh, actually all I did with swadloon was protect to stall out one turn of sun and bug bite to eat the oran berry, so vulpix doesn't heal. My Vivillon actually killed it with stun spore and psybeams! I wanted to play desolation in ages,but I was wondering if I would get past Connor and vejyr fire cave with only early bugs. But going pretty well, I am just after my first battle vs Scarlett, and only battle I had to try many times to win was with Connor.

    @Zargerth I found wurmple in the area where you first meet Hardy, right after defeating Connor. Spinarak is still MIA though... Thanks! Connor is tough, yeah. An early game blazing field and drought vulpix? Too strong! I had to sack my swadloon to protect and bug bite on vulpix to get rid of that annoying oran berry. But it didn't heal my swadloon... Maybe a bug... Pun intended! Also, the rock smash on kricketune and beedrill helped me deal some damage or finish off things. it is my first take on desolation anyways, so it is even tougher, for being a blind monotype...
