Major Trainer battle / Gym battle counts versus the Elite Four? Yea I know I'm way ahead of where I should be ... Sorry guys. I'm NEET:ing and I ended up getting addicted to this game. I beat Bruno's entire lineup using only my Slowbro, it took exactly 6 turns, I had to hit his Machamp twice because he didn't fall to the first Psychic hit, hso I finished him off with a Confusion.

I sort of regret not teaching my Slowbro Amnesia. I'm going through blind, so I don't look up what moves do. I've been writing down every TM in my notebook as I've been playing, and I'm using the experimental method to figure out what they actually do, to sort of limit myself and have more of a sense of wonder while playing. That's why I didn't know what Amnesia did, I only found out at Lorelei when she used hers, that it raises the Special stat dramatically ... That's really powerful, haha. But that's the kind of hit that you have to take when you're playing this way.
