You're damn right you will. I appreciate your candor. Oh boy, our first real boss battle. He seems like a spirited competitor. Oh my god he sparkles. He really is a bishounen. You can't tell from the screenshot, but Ilima is unique as he's the first left-handed Trainer you actually see in a Pokemon game. Anyway, he starts with a Yungoos, which is easily dispatched. However, his signature Pokemon is a Smeargle. It's mentioned off-hand that Ilima and Smeargle paint the fences in the city, and his Smeargle is no slouch; it comes with moves to counter all three starters type-wise. In this case, Farooq the Litten is weak to Smeargle's Water Gun. So we just have Jibble sit on it until it says 'uncle', just like how I got disciplined in school. We aren't the Champion, but we're on our way there. Even if I have to build the Pokemon League brick by brick all by myself in this region. Credit where credit is due, he respects the pudge that is Jibble. Everybody respects Jibble. Oh, don't worry, we'll challenge it. I'm feeling mighty swole right now.

After we leave the marina, we head off for Route 2, but run into Lillie by the city limits. I kind of have to if I want to get off Namek. I mean, get off Melemele Island. It feels like Namek, how long I've been here already. I don't know, does he? I should ask him sometime. I don't need luck. I have swole. Oh god damn it Hala. Okay, okay, I'll give him the salt lick I've been carrying. Here, you oversized beef bourguignon. Or maybe he senses that if he doesn't get out of my way, I'm having Hamburger Helper Stroganoff for dinner, and he's invited as the guest of honor. Get the fuck out of my way before I eat you blue rare, brisket-boy. Yeah, go fetch him, I'll get my cooking knives out of cold storage. Fucking hell, man, will this day ever end. I need a fucking drink. Yes, give me the Chateau Romani Special. Momma needs to thank Mr. Skeltal for good bones and calcium. Oh? I love a good snack. Yay, we got a donut!

Resuming our challenge, we head up Route 2 and speak to this man. Probably just another Yungoos. Well that sounds rewarding. The first trainer on the route is a Beauty. Gastly is a familiar one to Genwunners. Ghost/Poison, of course. Lucille is at the disadvantage, but we still win anyway. That is a decidedly un-beautiful face. Investigating the rustling reveals a Makuhita. Get used to seeing these guys on Melemele, by the way. Meet CitizenSnips. CitizenSnips is a Corphish I brought over from Omega Ruby because I don't like our early-game selection of water types all that much. CitizenSnips is brutal hatred inside a tiny package. Well of course we're going to go pay our respects to the dearly departed! This however will have to wait. Huh. For a graveyard it's decidedly chipper around here. I do catch a few Pokemon, though, mainly just a Zubat that we'll add to our team. You can't tell from this, but I used a Friend Ball to catch Beverly. You'll understand why if you've played Gen II games. We also pick up a TM over here. We'll come back to fight the trainers here later. For now, though, we have a Drifloon we also caught. And no, naming it Hindenburg is not in poor taste. It's ENTIRELY appropriate. Remember this lady in the PMC in the city? It's a balloon. Oh, what are you, some gold digger? Oh wow, you ARE a gold digger. But I like the cash flow.

Not exactly the best Pokeball to find, but it'll make some spare cash. Yeah, I doubt Tauros is tired, there, pal. It looks like it could storm up and down this route. Over by this parking spot in front of what looks like a motel, we find a Super Potion. And in this house here we can overhear what sounds like bickering and fighting. I'm sure it's nothing. As we proceed, we see our next fight up on Route 2. Spearow can be found on the next route, so this is a bit of a preview of what's to come. Anyway, past him we see a Delibird. This Delibird doesn't have a name. I'm gonna call him Oswald. No, Oswald, I don't have as nearly a nice collection of Ribbons as you do, buddy. This DM is railroading me!

Erm... I have nothing noteworthy to say here except... you have to interact with Doors to enter buildings? I don't know why but this irks me.

Long time no post. Really, I've been spending more time on the Discord than anything, as well as sorting out life issues of my own right now. I apologize for not uploading anything, but real life takes priority over gaming these days.
With recent revelatory news about Pokemon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, I've decided to put to rest this LP and restart it when Ultra Sun comes out. The new Black Sun LP will be posted in this same thread, for continuity purposes, and to save the forum from being bogged down by spurious posts. In the meantime, I will be resuming my Fatmancraft LP in my other thread starting Saturday and alternating update posts on it whenever I can.
I apologize for the long wait.

This is some of the funniest commentary. Wonder when LegendsStation will get reactions beside "like" for posts?
