You tried to battle a gym leader?

Re: Video thinkimsuperman December 22 2011, 20:34:45 UTC

I didn't uh... plan on it. It was an accident.

An accident?

Video thinkimsuperman January 18 2012, 21:08:47 UTC

Well, I went in there thinkin' it was an inn. Guess I didn't read the sign.

Your first ba-- ... dude, you tried to fight the Gym Leader THERE?

[After never battling before?!]

You gotta take it slower, man!

[... Whoa. WHOA. HEATHER is trying to tell DOUGLAS to take things slower? STRAP ON THOSE ICE SKATES AND HOP IN THE HANDBASKET!]

[Video] thinkimsuperman December 22 2011, 20:35:47 UTC

I didn't wanna battle. Didn't even know it was a gym. Just sorta wandered in and the battle started without any warnin' or anything.

I gotta say it was sure a surprise.

[Bringing a hand up to her forehead, Heather rolls her eyes.]

Sheesh... do I have to get you some glasses for Christmas or what?

Anyway... be more careful from now on, okay?

... And when you ARE strong enough, bring some earplugs if you try to fight that Gym Leader again. Just trust me on that one.

Hey, if there's one part of me that's not failin' yet, it's my eyes.

Sure, I'll be careful. You don't have to worry about me, okay?

[and then he chuckles]

Whadaya mean by that?

seasalttwilight December 20 2011, 22:02:46 UTC

Was it because of levels, or type matchups? Battling's a lot more than just charging in and hoping for the best.

thinkimsuperman December 22 2011, 20:36:29 UTC

I didn't plan to battle. I just sorta wandered in and it started somehow. Think I ended up fighting somebody else's battle they were about to start or somethin'.

seasalttwilight December 23 2011, 05:52:55 UTC

Yeah...usually if you go into a gym or something, that's the expectation. Most trainers think if you make eye contact, it's on.

thinkimsuperman January 18 2012, 21:10:23 UTC

Well. Guess I'm gonna have to watch my back from now on, huh?

[Oh hey, it's lawbuddy!]

Looks like you took on more than you could chew, Detective. My tip: don't go for the gyms first.

[Is he a little amused? Yep, but kindly so.]

[video] thinkimsuperman December 22 2011, 20:37:27 UTC

[Douglas loves you, lawlbuddy]

I didn't uh... realize it was a gym. I thought it was an inn, and I wandered in hopin' to rent a room or somethin'. And then the battle started.

[video] blacklodged December 26 2011, 06:59:00 UTC

Ouch.

[That's a sympathethic wince right there. Sounds like you probably were had.]

I hope you didn't get too beaten up. If memory serves the Inn should be down the street to your left.

[video] thinkimsuperman January 18 2012, 21:12:38 UTC

Yeah, guess I should really be more observant. Seems like a good idea around here.

[he shakes his head]

Naw, I'm okay. It wasn't much of a battle. Sheldon just kinda retreated into his shell and stayed there.

Thanks. I'll have to go find the right building this time.

[he laughs self-deprecatingly]

... I thought we were supposed to fight the cities in order.

Re: [Video] thinkimsuperman December 22 2011, 20:38:10 UTC

I wasn't plannin' on a fight. I thought I was in an inn and then... a battle just sorta started up.

[way to be observant, Doug]

show_my_cannons December 22 2011, 21:22:14 UTC

You... thought you were at an inn?

thinkimsuperman December 22 2011, 21:52:23 UTC

[he sighs]

I was tired. Guess I wasn't really payin' attention.

[he shrugs slightly]

Guess that's what I get for not readin' signs.
