First playthrough. Not quite legit because I looked up the answers to recruitment/item talks because I got annoyed after a white, but at least in terms of interactions was based on self. As you can see, I'm really bad at connecting with people and probably would have had an easier time if I could bench my friends and bring all recruited mons. I went Tuskmon->Triceramon->Mugendramon with it being just 1 higher at first, exactly 24 each, and then went heavy with the Wrathful answers when I realized I was probably going to Wrathful. Now to just beat the game more times.
