Pokemon League Defeated! (Spoilers)


Pahrak Model ZX

908 views

I’m Alola’s first ever Champion! :D But I couldn’t have done it without my team:

-Boko the Decidueye! My starter, the one who’s been with me throughout my entire journey. Love this archer bird.

-Onepu the Mudsdale! The freaking MVP of this team! Seriously, if you play Sun or Moon, get yourself a Mudbray/Mudsdale with Stamina. You will not regret it.

-Wargoyle the Marowak! Still working out her moveset, but no one can say she isn’t reliable! Handled most of the last-minute grinding done on Mount Lanakila, too.

-Podzilla the Golisopod! Looks awesome and hits super-hard…when she doesn’t use Emergency Exit, that is. I love her and she’s great, but that ability has caused some problems—I wish they’d given her something else.

-Frost the Sandslash! The whole reason I got Moon. I was a little nervous about his moveset and low Special Defense, but he barreled right through those concerns and made the switch worth it!

-Nebby the Lunala! Unfortunately I haven’t gotten to use them in battle much yet, but they’re gorgeous and we have a lot of history anyway.

 

I love this game. I love Lillie, and Hau, and Hala, and Kukui, and the player’s mother…I’m starting to begrudgingly develop an appreciation for Gladion, even. Characters aren’t always a focus in Pokémon games, and I’m so glad they’re changing that. I love the Alola region and so many of the Pokémon found there. I love Z Moves. I love the story, even if it isn’t perfect. (There wasn’t any actual plotline for Type: Null, that’s one thing that disappointed me, but the main plot was really good.) That’s the most touching ending to a Pokémon game I’ve ever seen.

 

There’s still plenty to do, I know, but I already feel very content. I think I’ve got a second favorite region.

Also, yes, I feel like they've been taking lessons from chunsoft... ;-;7

 

Also, technically there was a sort of plotline for Null, it was just a bit more subdued... did you check out Secret Lab A?

I haven't checked out the lab yet, no, but thus far it feels like Null's been more of a backstory thing than anything else.  What really surprised me was that no real mention was made of its evolution--Gladion just showed up with Silvally.  I was kinda hoping for it to be more of a focal point, but looking back I guess I didn't have any particular reason to expect that, eheh...

The evolution is actually a pretty big thing once you know how it evolves, especially considering the rest of his team at that point. And yes, a lot has been backstory, but it's not really much different than some others. And the main stuff they wanted you to especially know about, they mentioned. ^^

 

spoilers
Three of his four Pokemon in the fight at the bottom of Mount Lanakila are happiness evolutions, including Null... Basically, Gladion managed to gain Null's trust enough that it could control its berserker state and shatter the helmet~ ^^

That is really cool, but I still wish Null/Silvally had appeared outside of battles.  I think it would have made the evolution more of a touching development if I had gotten to actually watch it do more than just attack my Pokemon.

 

 

Waitaminute...

 

Kukui told me I was the first champion!

 

I bet he's lying about not being the Masked Royal too.

 

*gasp, followed by dramatic soap opera piano*
