Pokemon Diamond (DS)
May 31st
Well, I got through the Elite Four this time, but the champion beat my face off. I turned the DS off when I lost, so I have a save just before the fight. I might see if I have any decent TMs that might help, but I’m not sure that will be enough. My Noctowl doesn’t seem to be able to last a single turn, my Bibarel dies almost as quickly, my Rapidash is still way too weak defensively… it’s all a bit rubbish.

Well, I was levelled enough for Victory Road, but I lost to the fourth member of the Elite Four, so I’ve been out and about tending to my berries and levelling up some more before trying again.

Well, everyone in my team is at least level fifty, so I’m going to try Victory Road when I next play. It’s underground, so I’m not going to bother trying at night when the encounter rate’s high.

Ahhhhhh, and the Lucky Egg has been obtained.
I’m now levelling up my team before trying Victory Road. It’s taking a long time and isn’t any fun, which makes me wonder why I’m bothering. RPGs can be odd like that and I don’t understand.

Spent a lot of time trying to catch a Chancey holding a Lucky Egg. Failed dismally.
Also spent some time battling the old lady near the trophy garden place to get lots of money to buy new Pokeballs with.
Wen on a short fossil hunt; didn’t find any.
Not the most successful day ever.

I’m trying to find fossils.
I’m failing.
I’ve also decided to bury all spheres outside my base in future. I know I buried some a while back and can’t find them anywhere. Oops.

Just a quick go to do a trade with my wife and get my trendy saying for the day. And check the GTS. And plant some berries. And do a quick bit of levelling up of my new guy.

Well, that’s all eight gym badges obtained.
I’m not ready for Victory Road yet, though, so I’m going to have to level up a bit. I might change my team round a bit, too. My Medicham is far less useful than I thought she’d be.

Team Galactic are defeated!
The trek up Mount Coronet was awful, with random encounters every two steps. (I think caves might be worse at night, because the last bit this morning was much quieter.) Then Team Galactic’s boss very, very nearly wiped me out, but I just about won and got the chance to fight the legendary Pokemon Dialga, who in a somewhat anticlimatic battle I managed to catch in the first round with a Quick Ball.
