Munchlax's Entrydex

In no time, I was on my way to a mountain of white-colored rocks. I used Dive on the deeper parts of the water in order to reach a cavern to enter Sootopolis. As soon as I surface, I gasped at the sight of two large legendary pokemon battling each other. Groudon and Kyogre were slamming into each other!

I spot Maxie and Archie nearby. They're trying to catch the attention of the two large legendaries. No such luck. I then find Steven. He leads me to Cave of Origin. I am to go inside and find Wallace. In no time, I find him. He tells me there's another pokemon named Rayquaza that can calm the two ancient pokemon. I am to head out and find the Sky Pillar where he sleeps.

Immediately I leave Sootopolis and I surf (To be honest, all the water routes are the same to me so I don't know what routes I took) until I find the Sky Pillar. As soon as I get on land, Wallace appears and apologizes for leaving me behind in his haste. He unlocked the door of Sky Pillar. On our way in, earthquakes are happening and the weather distortion reaches our location. Wallace tells me he must head back to Sootopolis to keep an eye on things. I am to forge on ahead. I waste no time as I run to the top of the tower. Rayquaza awakens and flies way!

I quickly fly back to Sootopolis just in time to see Rayquaza come down from the skies to deal with Kyogre and Groudon! He roars at them and they depart... Rayquaza lets out one loud shriek and is gone! The weather calms....

I head over to Wallace and he tells me to hear what the leaders of Team Magma and Aqua have to say. Bleh. I listen to both Maxie and Archie but the idiots seem to laugh the whole ordeal off and depart. Hah. I then received HM move Waterfall from Wallace as thanks for saving the world! Then he tells me that in order to use it out of battle, I have to get the 8th Gym badge.

The Sootopolis Gym is right there so I decided to head right on in. Why not? It's Leader Juan! He said he was here to make a comeback! Do do do do do do... He whips out his beloved pokemon; Luvdisc, Whiscash, Sealeo, Crawdaunt, and Kingdra. All were defeated! I won the Rain Badge! This means I have full obedience of all pokemon. This badge, as you already know, also allows HM move Waterfall to be used outside of battles.

It appears I have to head east and face ... The Victory Road.

I arrive to Lilycove City and sneak into Aqua Hideout. I explore a bit, trying to gather everything I possibly can - such as a Master Ball! This'll be helpful to catch any lurking legendaries. Aqua Hideout is so much better than Magma Hideout. There aren't endless Geodudes attacking me here! I make my way to Aqua Admin Matt. After I beat him, he chuckles and says that while he was toying wth me, his leader Archie was able to leave via the submarine.

I leave the hideout and immediately notice the Wailord are gone. I head east along Route 124 until I hit Mossdeep City. While exploring this city, I spot Scott who informs me that the city is in an uproar about some weird letter and the space center. I enter the Space Center and find Steven. Apparently the space center received an intent-to-steal notice. Team Magma is after the rocket fuel. Steven tells me everything will be okay and I can go about my business.

With nothing else to do, I enter the gym. There's tons of switches, warps, and double battles. I love the double battles! At the end are the Gym Leaders Tate and Liza. Twins! It was quite a battle. All of my pokemon fainted - yes, including poor little Heidi the Zigzagoon while I had to revive Maya - but Maya was the only pokemon left and she saved the day. I won the Mind Badge! This badge enhances Sp. Atk and Sp. Def of my pokemon. It also allows me to use HM move Dive outside of battle.

After leaving the gym, I heal my pokemon up at the PokeCenter and wander around to find out what's next. Bam! I spot Maxie and a few of his Team Magma Grunts on their way to the Space Center. I quickly hurry over and enter. I dealt with the Team Magma Grunts on the first floor and head up to the second floor just to walk into THREE Team Magma Grunts. No problem. Each one was dealt with.

I spot Steven and Maxie in the corner of the room. I hurry over and hear Maxie explaining that he's there to take the rocket fuel to blow up the volcano and make it erupt now that Groudon was gone. Well... Heh... We weren't having this! Steven and I team up against Magma Leader Maxie and Magma Admin Tabitha. We made a pretty good team! We defeated Team Magma! Maxie begins to wonder if his goal to expand land mass is misguided - and by wondering this, he realizes that Team Aqua's expanding of the seas is just as misguided. He says he has things to think over and departs. Steven is thankful for the help and also departs.

I run out and wonder what else to do. I quickly head over to Steven's house and immediately he gives me HM move Dive! He says I earned it.

Now with HM move Fly, I decided to switch out Freida the Zigzagoon with Musa the Tropius and taught him Fly. Running through Route 120 and 121 was pretty uneventful until I spotted Team Aqua Grunts near a dock. I overheard them say that were heading out to Mt. Pyre.

I was finally in Lilycove City. I had a conversation with a friend about trying to deal with Shuppet on Route 121. I didn't want to use Isadora's psychic moves because I didn't want to risk the chance that one of them might pop up with Pokerus. He advised me to use my Kecleon.

After healing up my pokemon, I decided to switch out another Zigzagoon to bring in Leonhides the Kecleon since I'll need DARK moves to hit Shuppet. I flew to Fallarbor Town and had Leonhides re-learn Thief by the Move Tutor. While here, I handed the Meteorite to Professor Cozmo. I flew back to Lilycove City and explored. I spotted May in front of the Lilycove Department Store. She wanted a quick battle. She tossed out her Tropius, Grovyle, Slugma, and Pelipper. Needless to say, I beat her.

The Team Aqua's secret base is constantly mentioned at the cove. I head into their secret base but the Team Aqua Grunts are blocking the path. I can't go east onto Route 124 since the Team Aqua Grunts are training their Wailord, effectively blocking the way.

I head back onto Route 121 and jump into the water to head down Route 122 to make it into Mt. Pyre. I head out the side door and begin my climb up Mt. Pyre. I battle Grunt after Grunt until I bump into Archie himself at the very top! He says Maxie has already been through here but he himself has what he's been looking for! The Red Orb! He says his plan can finally go into action and they leave. The old couple are distraught and claim the orbs must never be separated! The old woman hands me a Magma Emblem and says it might help me out at some point in time.

I decided to teach HM move Surf to Maya. It's an incredibly useful move both in battles and across water. I head on home to Littleroot Town to visit Mother. She was proud of me after I showed her the badge I won from Dad! She gave me an Amulet Coin which helps me receive more money from battles.

I then took a quick detour to Rustboro in order to pick up an Exp. Share from Mr. Stone. While here, I took the Root Fossil to the Devon Researcher so that he could bring it back to life using his Fossil Regenerator. It turned out to be Lileep! While leaving, my mystery egg hatched! It was a Wynaut. I stuffed Wynaut into the PC and brought out Eloise the Zigzagoon.

I made my long trek to Mauville city so that I could go east onto Route 118 but I spotted Wattson!

He needed a favor and felt that I was the only one who could do it. Apparently Mauville City has an underground sector known as New Mauville. The generator is acting pretty funky and he needs me to go turn it off. He hands over the Basement Key and I'm on my way! After a barrage of Voltorb and Magnemite, I successfully shut down the generator. Wattson is extremely pleased and rewards me with a TM.

With that out of the way, I head east onto Route 118. Right away I am given a Good Rod. I spot Interviewer Gabby and her cameraman, Ty. A battle and an interview later, I'm on my way to the Berry Master's House. He gives me a couple berries, his wife gives me one, and um... I steal all the berries from the side of his house before I flee!

I quickly head north onto Route 119 and I trek through all the tall grass and trainers until I reach the Weather Institute. I am not surprised to find out that Team Aqua has a scientist for hostage here. I shove the Team Aqua Grunts aside and put Aqua Admin Shelly's pokemon down. Before anything else can happen, a Team Aqua Grunt rushed in and shoved me aside! Apparently a Team Magma mob was spotted! They were heading for Mt. Pyre! This causes great concern for Aqua Admin Shelly and they immediately depart.

The scientist was thankful. Extremely thankful enough that he gave me a Castform. I'm not sure what to do with it so I just have it stuffed in the PC. With such a busy day, I decided to sleep in a bed found on the first floor of this institute.

As soon as I enter the PokeCenter, I notice a woman in green standing in front of the PC. I introduce myself and it turns out that she works on the Pokemon Storage System. Her name is Lanette. I explore Fallarbor Town. Nothing of value here except a Move Tutor. I head onto Route 114 and meet the Fossil Maniac. Shortly down the route, I enter Lanette's House and she gives me a little bribe to keep a secret!

It isn't long before I enter Meteor Falls and watch a scene unfold! Team Magma Grunts! They have cornered poor Professor Cozmo until Archie and his Team Aqua Grunts show up. Team Magma shoves by me and leaves. Archie follows after them. I go to console poor Professor Cozmo. Apparently Team Magma stole the Meteorite from him and they want to use it in a gizmadoodad on top of Mt. Chimney for some reason.

I head out the south entrance of Meteor Falls. Right away, I knew I had to go back to the lift where the Team Magma Grunts were blocking my path. This means heading down Route 115, through Rustboro City, Route 116, Rusturf Tunnel, Verdanturf Town, Route 117, Mauville City, Route 111, and at last... Route 112. Indeed the path to the Cable Car was free. I hop in and make my merry trip to the top!

Once on Mt. Chimney, I can't head south down to the Jagged Pass since a Team Magma Grunt and a Team Aqua Grunt are blocking the path by battling with their Poochyenas. By the way, I noticed that Team Magma Poochyenas say "Bufoh!" while Team Aqua Poochyenas say "Bushaa!". I head up north to the top of Mt. Chimney. Right away I spot Archie taking on three Team Magma Grunts at the same time.

I make my way by battling Team Magma Grunts as well as a Team Magma Admin Tabitha. Finally I reach Maxie himself! He's talking about awakening something that sleeps in the volcano. Ehhhhh, He claims I'll never understand it so he challenges me to a battle in order to get rid of me. Ha! I take down his Zubat, Mightyena, and Camerupt with utter ease and chase him away. Archie meets me and is pleased with my work before he leaves. I explore the little doodad and find that I can take the Meteorite. Why not? I take it.

With both teams out of the way, I can now head down Jagged Pass and into Lavaridge Town.

With nothing else to do in Slateport, I head north to Route 110. I bump into Professor Birch and we register each other on our PokeNav. There's a bunch of trainers here so it doesn't take long for Penelope to evolve into a Linoone!

There's a Trick House on this route where I met the Trick Master. I go through his little maze and battle trainers here too. I continue along Route 110 - which should be called "Paralysis Route" since my pokemon keep being paralyzed... - I meet May! She challenges me and I knock out all three of her pokemon: Wingull, Grovyle, and Slugma. She hands over a nifty item called Itemfinder. I quickly use it and find several hidden items. With the novelty of the item wearing off, I head to Mauville City.

I decide to hit the Mauville Gym straightaway since I'm feeling pretty confident. I beat the trainers and meet Wattson. I don't know why but I think Wattson is my favorite of all the Gym Leaders. He looks way jovial and I think that's pretty neat.

Wattson sends out Voltorb, Electrike, Magneton, and Manectric. All were easy to beat except for Manectric. It helped that Maya's Mud Slap killed Manectric's accuracy but after I ran out, I had to slowly whittle him down and dealt with Wattson potion'ing him a couple times. I win the Dynamo Badge! This badge makes my pokemon a little bit faster and allows me to use the HM move Rock Smash out of battles.

Exploring Mauville got me a free bike from Rydel and the HM move Rock Smash. I soon get a call from Wally which reminds me I have to head west to Verdanturf where he's currently at. I head onto Route 117 and quickly enter the Daycare Center. I decided to drop off an Aron and a Taillow just in case. You never know, right? I battle the trainers and wild pokemon - and surprise! Isadora evolves into Kirlia! Pretty soon, I arrive to Verdanturf Town.

I decided to hit the Rustboro Gym right away. I knew that Maya would have no trouble dealing with Roxanne's two Geodude and a Nosepass. The Nosepass was annoying as heck because Roxanne kept potion'ing it over and over. Bleh. But! I won the Stone Badge! It heightens my pokemon's attack power and allows me to use the HM move CUT outside of battle.

With the gym battle out of the way, I explored Rustboro City. Before I could do that, I spotted a Team Aqua Grunt fleeing from the Devon Researcher. Eh... Back to exploring. I received the HM move CUT from the Cutter's House and used it to teach Penelope right away. I met a father who was fussing over his little girl, Walda, who refused to smile or laugh. Can you blame her? She was named after Waldo. Don't believe me? There were tons of plush surrounding her bed. I'm pretty sure her father loves "Where's Waldo?" and enjoyed his real-life version. I bet he brings people up and says, "Where's Walda? Ha ha."

I hit the local school but nothing special there except I got a Quick Claw from the teacher. I also met the man with the sunglasses again. It turns out his name is Scott and he's scouting for special trainers who have what it takes.

Well, let's get the inevitable out of the way. I find the Devon Researcher quivering at the edge of Rustboro City. Naturally he begs me to run off and get his Goods back. I head through Route 116 dealing with trainers and wild pokemon until I meet a man who tells me he was kicked out of his tunnel by a crazed lunatic. When I spot the tunnel, I find an old man there who says his pokemon, Peeko, was stolen! Gloves are off now! No one steals pokemon! I march right into the Rusturf Tunnel where I find a showboating Team Aqua Grunt and I smash him flat! The old man turned out to be Mr. Briney! With the Goods safely back in my hands, I head back to a very relieved Devon Researcher who takes me to the third floor of the Devon Corporation to meet his boss, Mr. Stone. Both of them want me to do favors for them. I have to deliver the Goods to a Shipyard in Slateport City and a letter to Steven in Dewford Town.

Mr. Stone however gave me an important item for my journey. A Pokemon Nagivator or PokeNav. It'll allow me to register challengers and keep track of my Pokemon. Nifty but not as helpful as a VS Seeker. My next stop is to visit Mr. Briney and ask him to take me to Dewford Town!

I left Littleroot Town and went to Oldale Town. I healed up Maya and immediately ran into the local PokeMart. I have heard way too many terrifying tales of people finding a shiny pokemon at this stage of their journey. Too bad the guy's out of poke balls...

I can't head west onto Route 102 due to some fanatic drooling over footprints of a rare pokemon so I head north to Route 103 where I soon meet May, the daughter of Professor Birch. Apparently she wanted to teach me a lesson about what it's like to be a trainer so she tosses out her Treecko for battle. Yeaaaah... no. Maya and I taught her the lesson of what it's like to be a trainer. Yeah. Haha.

We head back to her father's lab where he gives me a Pokedex that'll record every pokemon I see or catch. Nifty little doodad! May gives me five Poke Balls. I'll be grateful for that! Before I left Littleroot, my mother gave me Running Shoes to make my journey just a tad faster. I quickly return to Oldale Town to purchase more Poke Balls.

Next, I headed out west onto Route 102 where I am determined to catch five Zigzagoons. Their little racoon-like paws tend to pick up things. You do know about Zigzagoons and their PickUp ability, right? Very nifty and useful ability. However, while trying to catch Zigzagoons, I come across.... a Ralts. Yup. That was exciting. I dealt with the trainers, plucked some berries, and grabbed an item. So with a team of a Mudkip, Ralts, and four Zigzagoons, I reach Petalburg City.
