[What tiiiiiiiiiiime is it?]

[.... GYM BATTLE TIME!]

[The feed, as often is the case whenever Heather actually films one of her battles, seems manned by the resident camera-crocodile, and airborne thanks to Honey the ever-patient Butterfree (although not quite as airborne as it was back in Violet City during the victory over Falkner-- Godzilla isn't ( Read more... )

[Naoto looks a little concerned.] Do all Pokemon get that large when they evolve?

[video] foolishwren August 1 2011, 21:25:05 UTC

Well, not... all of 'em.

Arty got pretty big when she evolved, but she's still like... roughly the size of a really long dog.

But honestly I don't have many Pokemon who've evolved, so...

[video] usedhat August 1 2011, 23:04:26 UTC

That's... a relief. [she was worried. she has enough large Pokemon already, with the ones she inherited from previous-Naoto.] I don't think I have the budget to feed them all if they were that large.

[video] foolishwren August 2 2011, 00:06:25 UTC

Yeaaah, they do get pretty big, but... on the bright side, the stronger the people you battle are, the more money you get when you win, so...

[video] usedhat August 2 2011, 02:39:42 UTC

That's helpful. Battling has been easy enough, I admit, so I haven't been suffering terribly in terms of money. [though it feels a little like cheating. old-Naoto's Pokemon are so overpowered.]

[video] foolishwren August 2 2011, 03:14:40 UTC

I actually need to be doing more of it... I've been circlin' the drain!

The spoils from this fight should keep me going for a bit longer, though.

Do you get considerably better payouts when you defeat the gym leaders?

[video] foolishwren August 2 2011, 03:41:41 UTC

Well, yeah! I mean, they always have much bigger cash prizes than some random kid betting his pocket-money in battles on the side of the road.

[video] usedhat August 2 2011, 05:09:54 UTC

I hadn't quite thought of it that way, but it does make sense. There certainly do seem to be quite a lot of incentives to beat the leaders in place.

[video] foolishwren August 2 2011, 05:13:25 UTC

Well, it's definitely somethin' to do... and the natives respect you a little more if you've got some badges on your belt... so it's a good way of getting past that 'Oh, you're one of those ~otherworlders~' thing a little...

[video] usedhat August 2 2011, 05:34:40 UTC

I see. Is there one in Goldenrod City?

[video] foolishwren August 2 2011, 06:52:20 UTC

A gym?

Yeah, there's gyms in just about every city... well, 'cept for Cherrygrove... but that's not so much a city as it is a collection of beach shacks...

[video] usedhat August 2 2011, 21:28:50 UTC

[a faintly amused look] I didn't stay in Cherrygrove for very long, thankfully. Are there any gyms that are harder or easier than others?

[video] foolishwren August 2 2011, 22:11:09 UTC

Hmm... I dunno, most of 'em have been fairly easy for me... [Not counting the first battle against Falkner, which had wound up being an abysmal failure thanks to the fact that Cujo's before-then-unknown-to-Heather ability to breathe fire had pretty much derailed her entire battle strategy.]

[video] usedhat August 3 2011, 00:59:19 UTC

I'll have to consider challenging one, eventually. It seems like there's no reason not to.

[video] foolishwren August 4 2011, 19:37:33 UTC

It's somethin' to do, all right.

Plus, gets you a little respect from the locals, which is kinda nice.
