Chapter 6.2 - Needless Deaths!
We head out of the forest and see everyone being sad about Orchedy dying… I won’t believe it! Nooo!
Honestly, I really do feel sad for Nello here. Not only has he lost his parents but now he’s lost his girlfriend. I just hope this death doesn’t make him do something stupid or act irrational for the rest of the game. Anyways, it’s time to- What you want Therus?
Ok. This REALLY bothers me. Another Bulletin Point Time!
1. As soon as she got bitten, why didn’t you immediately give her this medicine!? It would save the drama from everyone and it would spare Nello from thinking about the death of his parents more!
2. When we meet up with everyone after we got out of the forest, he even tells us that he did everything he could to save her. WELL OBVIOUSLY FUCKING NOT SINCE YOU DIDN’T GIVE HER THE MEDICINE!
3. He somewhat starts acting like a dick here for some reason. And you never really get an answer for that. I guess maybe because he’s been in the Distortion World for so long but it’s never explained.
Bulletin Point over. After we learn that Therus is an ass and just let Orchedy die, he and Nello fight over the medicine until we take it away and we give it to her. This point pisses me off too. Why fight over the medicine when we’re just gonna use it to save her? Just give it to her already!
After that, we decide to go into the volcano. We meet up with Chan and he decides to team up with us. This is good. We need to train a bit anyways. Before we do that though, we ponder why the lava is moving here when everything else hasn’t been moving. Chan tells us that Therus explained that when the portal is near, things will start to move. With that out of the way now, we train a bit with our “boyfriend.” And we get 2 evolutions!
We then travel through the volcano fighting off wild Pokemon. We then meet the gang and Orchedy tells us this.
After that, Therus tells us that we need to find a way to cross the lava. So we (Chan and Luna) go deeper into the mountain to see what we can use to float across the lava to make it to the other side. At the end of the cave, we see a Magcargo and some Slugma. Chan angers them and we have to fend them off in a Double Battle!
Magcargo tries to run off but gets cornered and Chan catches it, hoping it can take us across the river of lava. And of course, that’s what happens. He releases it and we go to the top of the mountain where… Well… It’s a FREE FOR ALL! As in it’s us against them! But Therus has a battle game plan! He’ll take on the Slugmas. Nello and Orchedy will take on the Ghastlys and leftover Slugmas. Kain will take on the Haunters and Dusknoir. (Ohh NOW you’ll do it.) And Chan will take out the Garchomp. Well ok. Says good but who do we take out?... TAKE A GUESS!
Well after taking out THE DEVIL, we can relax and… Or we gotta help Chan because he somehow got his ass kicked by a Garchomp!
You’re a lousy Dragon Gym Leader trainee Chan! You got 2 dragons and a decently powerful water type Pokemon! How do you lose? Ugh. Move aside peasant.
After that pain in the ass, we attempt to escape but as we and Therus run to the other side of the top of the mountain, Garchomp jumps in front of Therus. Now this right here… I like it actually. It’s not the same “We beat it. Now it’ll go away.” Kind of thing. It’s still a threat. But it seems as if Therus has gone… Suicidal? Where did this come from? No matter what we say, he just stands there and says his time has come and basically lets the Garchomp, as Luna says, behead him. Jesus Christ! That’s a bit brutal!
I still don't like this death scene though. But I'll explain why at a later time.
We meet up with Chan and see the portal. He asks us where Therus was at. We explain to him what happened as we cry. He tells us that we didn’t do anything wrong and to quickly jump through portal before it closes. We do and hey. It’s the end of the episode. No really. Look.
And then 2 months past. (Also the beginning of Episode 2) I don’t mind this. They could tell us what they’ve been doing since “last time” we saw them. But I think this is an excellent place to stop. Especially since it’s the end of the episode.
Here is the team as of now!
This episode has been honestly, really bad and really good. To me at least. If they took out the Orchedy death scene, this whole scene wouldn’t have changed yet. And there was no reason for her to die. Well… I guess there is 1 reason. And I’ll show you when it comes up and trust me. It’s stupid. But I have to say, I liked the fact that we fought against the RULER OF HELL! All in all, I’d give this Episode a 6.5/10. The Luna/Chan love story is rushed and doesn’t make much sense, weird how even Chan’s friends are like “You’re with him? Ohh. Then we’re cool.” Some scenes were not needed here. Especially Orchedy death scene and Nello’s argument about him wanting to find Orchedy earlier. But the graphics look nice. As well as a lot of the backgrounds when we’re in battle. Team Lightning is, for me, as of right now, an OK evil team. They’re stupid but they have shown that they will murder people. And before I finish this, they had one thing no other games or fan made games have had… CHRISTMAAAAAAAAAS!!!!! Next time, we’ll learn where we are, what’s happened to everyone and move along with the plot.
