Nice! I remember using Curse Phantump, and then spamming Fake Out on Hariyama. That boss fight is tricky, but oh so satisfying!

Just a reminder that people do not get to reserve names for certain Pokemon. Everyone has a right to make a suggestion.

Chapter 8: Tragedy, the Episode Temere decided to continue his quest to search for the police officers. Unfortunately, that quest led him to find a Growlithe abandoned in the library. We looked to see why, only to discover something tragic... ...that's dark. Poor Temere couldn't just leave her alone. After saving the other police officers, he ended up taking her in! The Growlithe was so traumatized that Temere decided to give it some time off in the day care. He decided to leave her with Yakusa, a Pancham who had not been used too much on the team. However, as Temere came to pick up the Growlithe, he discovered something incredible: an egg! Apparently, Yakusa the Pancham and Growlithe had really bonded. He wanted to give her a big hug! However, he got a request from one of the police officers. Temere knew what the police officer was going through, having just lost Dangerous (his original Sceptile). He looked at Growlithe, only for her to give back an approving nod. Temere handed over the egg to the officer. Overjoyed, the officer decided to pay us back with another egg! After that brief encounter, Temere decided to continue his quest to find the Tangrowth. Fortunately for him, it didn't take much looking. ZEL and Take were accompanied by a mysterious figure. We heard a bit of dialogue from the man, who sounded strangely familiar... As the mysterious figure was about to battle us, however, another person entered the scene! That's right! Heather decided to take her broken Salamence to the fight! Honestly, she better have won that battle... Regardless, it was time to fight both ZEL and Taka at the same time... ...yay? With the duo defeated, Keta the mysterious hooded man ran off into the distance. However, the police officers decided to help us catch the man as a thank you for our help! We unmasked him, only to reveal that he was... ...a guy we hadn't met before! Seriously, though, this was gym leader Corey, someone Keta seems to have taken a liking to. Heather was understandably distraught about learning that her father was supposedly evil all along. Corey didn't take that well, either, vowing his revenge. Honestly, this whole episode has been filled with constant tragedies. Before we decided to confront Corey, we found another new team member! Next time, we'll be taking on Gym Leader Corey! Who should we catch? What should their names be? Also, who should we use in the upcoming fight against Corey? It's up to you! Current Team

In episode 17, you could go for Primerina. That should definitely cover your starter.

You know, I thought that at first, as well. However, in the next battle, the Toxic Spikes will poison the Tangrowth even before it mega evolves.

Chapter 7: Klink in the Clutch As Temere was heading toward the Jasper Ward, a thunderstorm began to open up. He decided to get some shelter in an abandoned alleyway. As he did that, however, he found another new team member! After encountering our new friend, we headed up to the Jasper Ward, where we were informed of our dilemma. Apparently, the police officers had all been preoccupied by the PULSE Tangrowth, possibly even killed. Temere quickly decided to help rescue the police officers, rescuing as many as possible. Along the way, he happened to run into another interesting indivudual... ...okay... Meet Taka, an admin of Team Meteor who was tasked with stopping us from taking down the PULSE Tangrowth. Without hesitation, we challenged him to a battle! With another win under our belt, we dispelled of the Tangrowth in Jasper! Taka was even kind enough to tell us about the Tangrowth in Beryl! As such, next time, we will- ...oh, I almost forgot! We were stopped by Heather, an energetic young girl with the desire to fight evil. If her presence didn't catch your attention, maybe this will! Honestly, with what Temere's fought, I'm sure he's unfazed. He beat Madame X's Yveltal with a Phantump, after all... ...anyway, next time, we'll be heading to the Beryl Ward! Who should we catch? What should their names be? Which six should we use? Also, when we receive the Growlithe, should we use it? If so, what should its name be? It's up to you! Current Team

Anyone up for a battle?

Chapter 6: Rise of the Exquisite Empress After Temere suffered through his Fern-enduced Ren flashbacks, he decided to continue his quest. Along the way, he fought off countless trainers, all with the goal of keeping Temere away from Florinia. Unfortunately for them, what they didn't realize is that we had gained an excellent evolution to repel them off! After all of that grinding, we finally confronted Fern, who had some very choice words for us... Well, if you told me not to take it personally, that totally makes it okay, right? We decided to quickly head to battle! After our fight, Fern certain wasn't happy to see us triumphant. This prompted him to take the league challenge. As Fern stormed off, this left Temere with one more task: to defeat Florinia! After that win, Florinia decided to ask for our services once again in the Jasper Ward. As we were heading over, we found another new team member! Next time, we will be heading over to the Jasper Ward! Who should we catch? What should their names be? Also, should we save or ignore the officers? It's up to you! Current Team

Awesome! I've got a quick irrelevant question for you:

Hello, and welcome officially! It's definitely good to have you on the site! I've got a question for you...

Chapter 5: Deja Vu After his brief break, Temere decided to continue his adventure. He ventured downward toward the Coral Ward, where he found another new friend. This was Amaria, the water type gym leader of Reborn. She informed us that she was trying to save an Oshawott from an abandoned lighthouse across the way. However, her Pokemon would be unable to surf across the toxic water. Luckily for the Oshawott, Cain came to the rescue! With his Grimer, he was able to save the Oshawott. However, Oshawott wanted to stay by Cain's side, giving him a new team member. Amaria decided that it would be best if Cain could test out Oshawott in a battle. As such, it was time for the "rematch we were all waiting for"... ...which is a strange thing for Cain to say, as this was only the second time Temere met Cain, but whatever, I suppose... After our victory, Amaria decided to invite us to help with the mysterious problem in Obsidia, unaware that we were already invited to help by Florinia. We arrived to help the two gym leaders, only to be greeted by an unwelcome site... We decided to confront the threat! After that close battle, Florinia decided to thank us by inviting us to battle her in her gym! Before we arrived, however, we found another teammate! As we went inside Florinia's gym, however, we ran into someone quite unpleasant... Next time, we'll be taking on the gym! Who should we catch? What should their names be? Also, which six should we use for the upcoming battle? It's up to you! Current Team

Chapter 4: Recruitment Day After a long fought battle with Julia, Temere realized he couldn't win with just two Pokemon. Because of this, he decided to expand his roster. As such, he went and caught another member of the team... After catching and training the newest member, Temere ran into Florinia. She had a favor to ask of us: In order for us to gain access to the Obsidia Ward, we would have to help her with the mysterious plant problem Satan Victoria had warned us about beforehand. Before we could do that, however, we still had to catch some more team members: After catching our newest members, we decided to continue our journey. In order to pass, we had to head through the slums. However, we instead ran into a force of pure, unadulterated malice. One that would scare people for generations of trainers to come... As such, we decided to defeat the force of pure malice! After repelling the threat, Temere decided to continue his quest, where he discovered another new team member! While Temere fought tough trainers, they ultimately proved no match for our new member, who would poison stall most of them to death. Eventually, however, we ran into another threat... It was time to try and catch a Scrafty... Eventually, after a "tough" battle, we made it to the opposite end of the Obsidia Ward! Next time, we will continue our quest! Who else should we catch? What should their names be? Also, should we box anyone? It's up to you! Current Team

What you have to do is do the mulch side quest in Reborn City. When you do that mission, you'll get the key which allows access to the generator in Shade's gym. That room is where you evolve Magneton.

I'd try not to get too hyped about it. This advice is also coming from someone who got way to hyped for Insurgence's release. Trust me: you don't want to put stress on a group of developers who have already worked really hard to make the game as great as it can possibly be. Still, it's exciting to hear that things are going well so far!

Chapter 3: The Happy Boom-Time House of Pain After we defeated Team Meteor, we decided to do some training before we took on the next gym. During that training, however, we ran into a new team member! Say hello to the newest member of the team... One of the best things about Reborn is the fact that you are able to train indefinitely off of trainers in the Grand Hall. These two trainers in particular provided a huge source of help for Julia: Eventually, with our new team member in tow, we decided to take on the first gym! As soon as you walk into Julia's room, she sets the tone immediately. Honestly, this is something I love about Reborn! Their personalities shine through extremely well, and they can each be seen through the designs of their gyms. Julia is hyper, so her gym is based around explosions. Florinia's gym is in a school, since she acts like a computer. Even Shelly's gym is awesome, as it's in a library! After she welcomed us, however, Julia let us know that we were in for a fight... ...and MAN, she wasn't kidding! Going in with two Pokemon only is always a risky play! Luckily, I had a plan... Temere was awarded with his first gym badge of the Reborn league! As he went to heal his Pokemon, however, he was stopped by a force of pure evil... ...Victoria. She informed Temere that plants had taken over the Obsidia Ward, deciding to attack the citizens. Next time, we will be investigating! Who should we catch along the way? What should their names be? It's up to you! Current Team

Chapter 2: Bonsai vs the World After our brief encounters with Cain and Victoria, we decided to do some exploring. While exploring, we met a lot of trainers, discovered our way around the place, and met a rather pleasant young man... I'm sorry, did I say pleasant? I meant despicable. Indeed, this was Fern, our third and final rival of the game. He seemed to be quite cocky. As such, Temere was quick to take him up on a battle! Despite our victory, Fern was quick to berate Temere for his lack of badges. He ended up telling him this: Temere decided to fix that by seeking out the gym. However, just as he found it, he was interrupted by another energetic individual. This was Julia, the first gym leader of the game. She happened to specialize in electric types. She ended up informing Temere that they had found the culprits of the bombing: a shady organization named Team Meteor. Without hesitating, Temere decided to accompany Julia in her quest to stop this organization. While at their hideout, we were met up by a couple of her colleagues... ...and I say colleagues, because one of the two is Fern. Having said that, we also get to meet Florinia, who is quite the interesting character. I'm personally hoping we get to learn a bit more about her in the upcoming update, but only time will tell. Regardless, with Fern's help, we began to clear out the Meteor grunts two by two. Along the way, we even got an evolution from our starter, Bonsai! Bonsai is going to put in work! We eventually made it into the center of the base, where we met the man leading the operation... ...Vegeta. Seriously, though, I'm not a big fan of Sirius. All he does is say ominous things such as "MWAHAHAHA, I'M SOOOOO EEEEVIL AND NAAAASTY!" He doesn't have much of a personality, especially when compared to someone such as Solaris (we'll get to him in a bit). Sirius decided to test Temere and Fern by pitting them against two of Team Meteor's higher ranking grunts, Aster and Eclipse! After our victory, Sirius decided that they no longer needed the factory for their base of operations. As a thank you, Julia allowed us to challenge her gym. As such, next time, we will be taking on Julia for our first badge! Who should we catch for our team? What should their names be? It's up to you! Current Team

For me, it's easily Swampert. His design and move pool are amazing for my play style, which generally prefers tanks. However, I also have to give two honorable mentions: Kantonian Raichu for being a fast sweeper on my teams and Vileplume for being my original favorite before RSE.

Interesting. The more you know, I suppose. I still have yet to play Spork. Perhaps I'll try it out soon...

Chapter 27: Cops - the Everia Chronicles After being teleported to Angie's Noxia's dimension, we continued to explore. Eventually, however, we ran into Noxia at the top, who was holding Ariëtta captive... ...WITH A GARUFAN DOOR! However, Noxia wasn't done. She had one last Shyamalan-esque twist left! I know. You're- ...oh, shit, I forgot about you! Now I'm happy again! We eventually continued upward, where we found Arietta within a dimension of time and space. When we made it to her, Scuros began to question us. Oh, you mean the artifact that traps- SHIT! Needless to say, Dialga and Palkia weren't too thrilled with being mind controlled by Scuros. They eventually took out their frustrations on him. However, we were still trapped in an unknown dimension. Luckily, we had a savior: Djin Tim, our Hoopa! He managed to escape from the box in order to help us out! Djin Tim teleported us out of the dimension, allowing us to continue our adventure. We were even invited to participate in another double battle for a gym badge! Before we decided to inform our friends, we got a few things done. After getting those errands done, we decided to inform our friends about our next task: to find our next gym- GOD DAMN IT! As it turns out, police aren't fine with us murdering people. Before anyone says anything; yes, we did kill those grunts in the castle (even if most of them were from Kain). The news even stated that we were the bad guys as we were leaving. I remember Chan even saying that we should go into hiding! It's a miracle we weren't arrested sooner! Still, we found someone else's mega stone. Next time, we'll find a way out of the prison! Current Team

Chapter 26: Eat your Heart Out, Jesus! After a long walk back to our "friends", we were finally able to move the toxic plants out of the way! How could we have solved the problem, you may asked? WATER! We eventually decided to head into the city, where we discovered why Achilles (Swampert) is truly the best Pokemon: We eventually found Arietta's gym, where... Oh, come on, Ariëtta! It's no different from where we fought! You should be thankful! Seriously, though, we decided to confront Noxia about the issue. Along the way, we found something neat, however... Eventually, we found Noxia, who is none other than another recolor! We eventually made it through her gym, where we found Noxia was waiting for us. There was only one problem, however... ...I FORGOT TO HEAL! After our win, Noxia decided to reward us with... ...A KNOCK OFF ANGIE DIMENSION! ...you're not even trying, game... Next time, we'll be looking for a way out of this dimension! Current Team

Who's up for a battle?

Chapter 1: Temere's Tragic Return After the incident in Grand Dream City, our hero Temere from the Rejuvenation run decided he had enough with Melia's antics. Because of this, he decided to take the train out of Grand Dream City and into the Reborn region in order to escape. With his trusty Sceptile named Dangerous, he embarked out to the Reborn region... ...except it turns out someone wanted him dead. The train unfortunately exploded, and in the chaos of it all, Dangerous pushed Temere out of the train in time before it exploded. Poor Dangerous didn't make it. For the first time in a long time, Temere was all alone. Temere decided to head out to the closest lab in order to inform the authorities what happened. When we got there, we ran into something much more terrifying... ...Victoria. I'm not going to lie: I despise Victoria. We'll get into why later, but for now, let's just say we don't get along... When he got in the lab, Temere informed an advisor by the name of Ame what had happened. Ame explained to a distraught Temere that they apprehended the suspect soon after the explosion occurred. She apologized to Temere, offering him the chance to take another starter. He then did something quite controversial... ...he sent his Pokemon back to Aevia, sending his Aevian Pokemon to Melia. In the heat of the moment, he decided to focus his energies on finding the group responsible for the death of his best friend. As such, he picked our first team member of the LP... After we chose our starter, we went back down to begin our adventure. However, while Victoria was choosing her starter, we ran into someone new... Meet Cain, a flirtatious individual and our first rival of the game. He decided to challenge us to a battle! After our battle, we decided to heal our Pokemon. However, we were stopped by Ame and Satan Victoria. Victoria decided to test us in a battle. As such, we decided to take up her offer! Needless to say, Ame decided to gift us with a couple welcoming gifts; a new pair of running shoes and a Pokedex! Victoria was even nice enough to give us some Pokeballs! Next time, we will begin exploring Reborn City! Who should we catch? What should their names be? It's up to you! Current Team
