heh, love the nickname for mawile............also it would be wise to update to v10 before the next gym battle (which is pretty soon) as the battle will be made a lot easier due to the roster being altered for the better............ plus iirc most of the v10 gym leader battles iirc at least on intense difficulty are double battles.......... that and you will never have to worry about pokemon potentially disobeying you due to badge-restricted hard level caps
