Pokemon Diamond (DS)
Jun 18th
Did my increasily-less-than-daily tasks, then took a quick trip into the Survival Zone. There’s still a town I’ve not been to, which I’m going to work my way towards, trainer by trainer.

Just doing my daily tasks, which I haven’t been doing very daily lately. Batowl has six ribbons now, but I’m still not being let into the big poncy place that tells me to get ribbons. Tsk.

And then I caught the Pokemon I’d sorted out in Pal Park, traded them to my wife, then did some more daily stuff. Oh, and evolved my Sneasel into a Weavile. Which was nice. Eighty-six hours in now.

I didn’t really play it, as such. Just started it up to sort out some Pokemon and delete their HMs before transferring them across to Diamond.

Today’s main task was to catch a couple of Bedlum, who were swarming up on Route 228. I’d never been up there, so I had to surf my across, only to find that level 53 Bedlums are very hard to catch. I took a lot of damage and a lot of my party fainted, but I got two in the end. One for me and one for my wife.

You see the daily tasks I posted about yesterday?
That’s what I did today.

These are my daily tasks -
1) Transfer six Pokemon from Pokemon Sapphire.
2) Catch those six Pokemon in Pal Park.
3) Trade those six Pokemon with my wife for six not yet in my Pokedex.
4) Get my trendy saying for the day. (Today: Neutrino.)
5) Check GTS for trades. (Today: a Bronzong from Mexico.)
6) Ask Dawn’s sister for swarm information. (Today: Electrikes at Valley Windworks.)
7) Get a berry from the woman in Pastoria City.

I can now transfer Pokemon from Sapphire to Diamond, so I started this up to sort out my boxes. I also tried to catch some new Pokemon, but didn’t see anything I didn’t already have. It looks surprisingly primitive compared to Diamond, but it runs about twice as fast, making battles much easier to cope with.

Off work today with a sore willy. (I think going back yesterday was a bit optimistic, should have stayed off for the recommended two full weeks, probably.) Anyway, between checks of my work email (yes, I’m all diligent and stuff), I decided to try the Champion again. I used a few TMs – most useful: Toxic, least useful: Fling – and without too much trouble I managed to… WIN!
Hooray! I’ve saved the world from Team Galactic and beaten the Pokemon Champion after seventy-six hours and nineteen minutes of play.
Normally that would be the end of it, but I need to go to the new areas now opened, fill my Pokedex, open up Pal Park, etc.
For the record, my winning team was:
Barry – Level 56 Ursaring (Rest, Strength, Toxic, Faint Attack)
Dialga – Level 56 Dialga (Flash Cannon, Shadow Claw, Dragon Claw, Roar of Time)
Neighbour – Level 58 Rapidash (Fire Blast, Ember, Flare Blitz, Flamethrower)
Gnawsome – Level 55 Bibarel (Surf, Cut, Waterfall, Rock Climb)
Butthead – Level 56 Rampardos (Rock Smash, Fling, Thunderbolt, Zen Headbutt)
Batowl – Level 54 Noctowl (Hypnosis, Fly, Extrasensory, Air Slash)
