Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: I'm Mr. Hat'n'Clogs!

*A look of shock with a hint of terror runs across Bill's face*

Bill: Really?!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Yes...is there a problem...

Bill: Yes...you see...*mumbles something*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Come again?

Bill: One of your Pokemon got stuck in the interwebs!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...huh?

Bill: You do know who I am right?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Uh...yeah...kind of...

*Bill's face turn's pale*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: You're that dude who made the Pokemon storage system.

Bill: Yes...exactly...that's all I am and that's all I've ever done! Haha! And I'm terribly sorry for this error. I was working on something else but seeing you has made me remember that and I will fix that problem immediately so your Pokemon can live a nice, safe life inside one of my protected, virtual boxes.

*Bill runs out the door*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...that was weird.

firestorm: Tell me about it.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Anyway, there's a gym in this area so let's do some training!

Ante: How about that dance studio over there?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...that's a terrible place for Pokemon training.

Ante: I'd agree with you, but they advertise themselves as having some top notch Pokemon trainers.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: In that case!

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Huh, these trainers aren't all that bad. Ready for the next one Ante?

Ante: Absolutely!

*Espeon uses insane, Psychic death ray! Critical hit!*

Ante: Ha! You can't kill what's already dead!

goldenspines: Um...Ante...*holding up a mirror in tears revealing a massive hole between Ante's eyes*

Ante: I...can't see a thing...so...dark...so...da...r...k...

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Ante...Ante...ANTE!!!!!

*Ante has fallen*

Garland:...YOU!

*In utter rage Garland rips the Espeon in two*

Garland: ROAR!!!!!

firestorm: Wooh Garland...and here I thought Garland was like a cute little psychotic child...

Fish: He's just lamenting the only person who wasn't frightened of him...

Mr. Hat'n'CLogs: We all are Fish...we all are...

*one funeral and dance studio smack down later*

GrubbtheFragger: Hey cheer up guys. Ante wouldn't want us weeping over her dead...again corpse. She'd want us to continue training so we can absolutely pound this gym!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: You've got a point there Grubb...I hope you do well in her place.

GrubbtheFragger: Of course I will! What are the chances that a Pokemon will die in a pointless battle right after another Pokemon from his or her team dies in a pointless battle?

*later...during a pointless battle...*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Grubb! Be careful your a little low on health!

Grubb: Don't worry man I got thi *hit...fatality...* apparently...the odds were higher...then I thought...

Image

*GrubbtheFragger has died*

Mr.Hat'n'Clogs: :(

goldenspines:...

Mr.Hat'n'Clogs: WHY DO TRAGEDIES ALWAYS COME IN PAIRS?!!!!!

goldenspines:...I...I don't know...but we have to move on. Grubb definitely wouldn't want us to keep mourning him.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Why bother...nothing good's come from this training anyway...

mechana: Well...

Image

mechana: Not exactly.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: mech?! When did this happen?!

mechana: What can I say, mopping up after low level Pokemon really burns away the calories. And builds massive, gaping mouths...and eyes...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: All right...for Ante and for Grubb...let's go get us a gym badge.

Entire team: YEAH!!!

----------------
After a really long time, its time for a gym battle! Here's the choices, pick 4 from below:

firestorm-Bayleaf
mechana-Golbat
golenspines-Noctowl
Garland-Togepi
Okami-Bellsprout
SavedGamer-Rattata
FishnChips-Slowpoke
Midori-Meoweth

Yay, updates and Mech is an awesome Golbat! :D

But boooo, Ante's gone. :< *cries and puts flowers on her grave, as well as Grubb's*
There goes your advantage at this next gym. :I

But let's see, line-up time. I can't remember who has which moves, but let's try:

-Mech (who is an awesome Golbat now and hopefully knows some awesome moves, bite or any other Dark move would be helpful. Unless I'm mistaken in thinking that dark doesn't affect ghost in Silver. D: )
-Garland (who seems stronger than most Togepis I've seen, plus Metronome is great, usually)
-Midori (leveled up to level....22, I think. He learns a dark move then. He may already know bite, though)


And I do not have a choice for a 4th spot because none of the other pokemon you have would be useful against ghost pokemon. :\ You could throw me in there to use Hypnosis or something if you want, though.

Yeah, I have to admit that your death sucked a little more then Ante's because...well...you died in the last Nuzlocke too...in about the same way...one of these days you'll get your revenge Grubb...and it will be glorious.

Lol, this is way to amusing. xD Is it to late to ask to be a Pokemon? Lol, sorry, I'm to lazy to read the whole thing.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: All right, it's time for us to end thi--

Image
*Garland has evolved into Togetic by the power of friendship!*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Awesome! So I guess that means your days of killing are over right?

Togetic: Nope, now I get to do air raids! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

goldenspines: Apparently you've out grown your "cuteness" factor as well...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Well now that that's over let's go--

Image
*mechana has evolved into Crobat by the power of friendship!*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Didn't you just evolve?

mech: Yes...what? A Pokemon isn't allowed to have two rapid evolutions one right after the other anymore?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Well...I guess that's good but now it's time to--

Image
*Midori has evolved by the power of--*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Friendship! I get it alright!

*...actually by the power of money...Pay Day spamming makes level grinding a nice, monetary investment.*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...fine...can we go to the gym now?

*Sure*

Image

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Alright, this time around we're going to let mech carry us through the gym, then when its time for the gym leader our order will be Garland, Midori, firestorm and then mech . Let's do this!

firestorm: Go team! *puts a vine in the middle of the team huddle*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: What are you doing?

firestorm: I thought we could do a team...thingy...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Uh...no...not this time...

firestorm: Ohhh...

Image

Advice dude: Hey, I've got some advice that is sure to make this gym a breeze!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Sweet! Is it some kind of advice for dealing with the gym leader's strategy?

Advice dude: Nope. It's better. *whispering into Mr. Hat'n'Clog's ear* The trainers in this gym will give you hints if you beat them in a Pokemon battle. *Yells* Have fun!

firestorm: And once again the dude who hands out free advice gives us useless advice...

Midori: At this point, I wonder why we even bother talking to him...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: He just looks so lonely...I can't resist it really...but I'm sure these trainers will give us the advice we need to suce--

Image

*Mr. Hat'n'Clogs checks Garland's move list to find that only one move has the potential to actually work against this gym leader's Pokemon and it's Metronome.*

Morty: Greetings trainer! I am Morty, the one who is destined to rule all of the Pokemon world!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...wait what? Take over the world?

Morty: Of course! What else do you think we Gym Leaders do in our spare time?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: I don't know...knitting?

Morty: N...how did you know I knit?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: I...actually I didn't.

Morty: But there's no way you could be that lucky...unless...you're like me 0.0

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...ok now you've gotten even creepier...

Morty: You must be able to read minds! Well I can see into the future. And the future says that one day I'm going to catch a bunch of Legendary Pokemon and take over the world. So, I guess you could say you're nothing but a stepping stone on my quest for greatness!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Stepping stone?! I'm no stepping stone for anyone! Let's do this creeper!!!!

Image

Morty: My Ghost's and I will make your existence a cursed one!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: That's doubtful...I hope...

Image
*Garland vs. Haunter*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Alright Garland, you only have one move that works...so Metronome it to death!

Garland: Alrighty!

*Garland uses Metronome. Garland pulls out a knife and uses scratch...it does nothing.*

Garland:...great, a normal move...

*Haunter uses Curse...Garland is now cursed*

Morty: Haha. Now do you see what I did with my introduction. Cursed existence. Because my Pokemon use curse!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Great, well, try it again Garland and this time--

*Metronome fails again...Haunter uses Mean Look and now Garland is trapped*

Garland: Um...Hat's...this isn't going too well...

*Metronome fails again. Garland takes damage from the curse*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: No, no, NO! I'm not losing another Pokemon! Not this way!

*Mr. Hat'n'Clogs spams potions until he runs out. Curse hurts Garland again*

Garland: Darn...well...it's been fun Hat's...but it looks like this is it...I've got one more shot. Let's see what I can do.

*Garland uses Metronome...Garland uses Confusion.*

Garland: What the...yes...YES! EAT PSYCHIC OWNAGE YOU GHOST JERK!!!!

Image
*Garland wins*

Garland: YEAHHHHHH!!! GET SOME!!!!!!!! WOOOOOHHHH!!!!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: HIGH FIVE LITTLE BUDDY!!!

*Epic hive fivage follows*

Morty: Ehhem...pehaps you are celebrating a little too early. After all, there's more of these Pokemon where that came from!

Image
*Midori vs. Haunter*

Morty: You'd think you would have learned your lesson by now. Normal moves fail miserably against Ghost Pokemon.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Actually I have Morty. You see unlike Garland, Midori knows Bite. And Bite is super effective against Ghost Pokemon. And...oh yeah...Ghost moves don't work on Normal types either...So Midori, why don't you om nom a Ghost.

Midori: With pleasure!

*Midori makes the Ghost bite the dust*

Morty:...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Maybe I should mention that our celebration wasn't all that premature...you see, outside of Garland, my line up is going to dominate yours.

Morty: Grrrr...as the future ruler of the world and master of all things legendary, I will not loose to you!

Image
*firestorm vs. Gengar*

Morty: Try my best Pokemon on for size!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: firestorm, you know what to do!!!

firestorm: Let's do this!

*firestorm is cursed.*

firestorm: Ah no, you're not going to take me down that way!

*firestorm spams Razor Leaf until Gengar dies a pitiful death.*

firestorm: One left!

Image
*mechana vs. Haunter*

mechana: Should have saved your best for last buddy.

*The Haunter stood no chance to mechana's biting prowess. Mr. Hat'n'Clogs wins!*

Image

Morty:...I just wasn't good enough to take over the world or catch any legendary Pokemon.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Pretty much. It's the disadvantage you NPC gym leader's have compared to me.

Morty: Here...take my badge and this TM...I...I have some thinking to do...

*Morty slinks away depressed*

goldenspines: I feel bad for him...

Random Trainer: Don't. He does this a lot.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: So he looses that much?

Random Trainer: Not with Pokemon battles. But other things...yeah...believe me, you don't want to beat this guy in something like Risk...he acts like a wounded dog when that happens.
-----------------

*elsewhere*

???1: He is improving.

???2: Yes, he's already overcome something the other didn't.

???4: There is still a long road ahead. I think it is too early to be placing him on a similar pedestal as him.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Huh...we're getting a little low on friends guys...time to find some more.

goldenspines: How about that burned down tower over there? Pokemon love hiding in buildings that have been ravaged by fire or other disasters!

Image

MoonRockDragon: Oh, its you. Are you here for that legendary Pokemon as well?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: What is it with everyone and these legendary Pokemon? No, I'm not thank you very much.

MoonRock: Well good! Because you're probably too weak for it! And just to prove that and make myself feel better I'm going to beat you in a battle!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...ok...

Image
*Garland vs. Haunter*

Garland: A Ghost Pokemon again...great...just great...

*mechana suddenly appears and one shots the Haunter*

mechana: I got your back my psychotic buddy.

Garland: Awesome!

Image
*firestorm vs. Magnimite*

firestorm: Um...are you sure you want me to fight this thing Hat's? Razor Leaf isn't doing all that much damage to it?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Your the only one on this team that can! So, spam it until it dies!

*firestorm spams Razor Leaf until it dies*

Image
*Midori vs. Zubat*

Midori: It's time to use this...

*MIdori uses Pay Day...Peanut resists the urge to make a somewhat sketchy joke involving a weather phenomenon. Midori wins and makes Mr. Hat'n'Clogs some extra money.*

Image
*Fish'n'Chips vs. Quilava*

Fish:...well...here goes nothing...

*Fish uses Water Gun...yeah, it kind of kills it pretty easily...Mr. Hat'n'Clogs wins...again...*

Image

MoonRock:ffffff...I hate weakness! And just because I lost doesn't mean your strong enough to catch those legendary Pokemon!!!!

*MoonRock has left the building*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Well...now that that's over let's catch us a new *Garland kills the next Pokemon*ffffffffffffffffffffffff.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Huh, this seems bizarre. Who'd want to make a farm for Pokemon.

firestorm: Yeah, we Pokemon are much better suited for legal dogfights where we beat each other to death. Truly this is a great message for our children on how to treat their pets!

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Well, while we're here, might as well check it out.

Girl: Hey mister, our Cow is sick can you give him some berries.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Sure!

Image

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Hey it seems to be working!

*More Berries later.*

Girl: Mr, we need more Berries.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Oh come on! One of these things is usually does the trick! Well, I'll come back when I have more...I guess...

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Oh...its you again.

MoonRockDragon: Yep, and don't bother going to this gym!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Is that because I'm too weak?

MoonRockDragon: No, its because the Gym leader's a weakling whose taking care of a sick Pokemon. Bah, taking care of Pokemon is for losers.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: So are we going to fight?

MoonRockDragon: No. Gosh, do you think every time I approach you we're going to fight?! What do I look like some sort of obsessive, messed up individual whose constantly trying to reassure himself of his masculinity by beating you in a legal dog fight?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...yes.

MoonRockDragon: Well I'm not!

*MoonRockDragon leaves*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Well...now that that's taken care of...let's get a new friend!

Image

Image
*Introducing, MisterFrodo the Shellder!*

MisterFrodo: Hurray! Now I can be useful.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Yeah! As my surf slave!

MisterFrodo:...great...

Image

firestorm: So why are we climbing this Lighthouse full of trainers?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Because its here and there might be something at the top worth getting.

Image

Jasmine: Hi, I'm the gym leader here. But this Pokemon is sick, could you get me some medicine for it because I'm lazy and don't want to leave.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...

firestorm: So we climb this tower. Risk life and limb. All to run an errand for someone...awesome...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Alright, we're about to travel across the sea. So we need to do some preparation. Garland!

Garland: Yes?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: It's time for you to learn some moves that don't rely as much on random luck to do damage.

Image
*Garland learns Rock Smash*

Image
*Garland learns Headbutt*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: And while we're at it...

Image

Mr. Frodo: You weren't kidding about the Surf slave bit...were you...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Nope.

JadenMental: So...I'm going to do something or...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Nope, to the box with you.

JadenMental: Got it.

*One short surf ride later...*

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Oh?

Shocked Guy: Yeah, some dude with a red mullet came running through this house. Calling me weak and stole one of my rare Pokemon. I'm scared he'll come back and grab the other so here. Take it!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...ok...

firestorm: Who'd a thunk that MoonRockDragon would be able to intimidate anyone.

Image
*Introducing Tsukyomi, the Tentacool.*

Image
*Also introducing Shuckie the Shuckle from that dude who was afraid of MoonRockDragon.*

???:Hey that's not my name!

*Oh, then what is it Ms bug rock...thing...*

Image

TopazRaven: It's TopazRaven, why in the world did you think I was called Shuckie?

*Because you are called--*

Image
*...Introducing TopazRaven the Shuckle...who is not called Shuckie at all even though that's what she was called when I got the screen shot! Stupid creator and his requirements for this nuzlocke run...*
---------------------------------------------------

Anyway, its time for another gym! This leader has a grand total of 2 Pokemon. Yes you read that right...2 Pokemon. So, I'll need you all to pick 2 Pokemon from the following list:

golenspines-Noctowl
Garland-Togetic
Okami-Bellsprout
SavedGamer-Rattata
FishnChips-Slowpoke

Man, why don't you have an electric pokemon? D: That would be super helpful right now against the gym leader's Poliwhirl

But oh well, 2 pokemon, you say?

Me - Noctowl (I'm sure I can take that Primeape...hoopefully. >_>)

Either Okami (if you can level her up so her awesome grass moves would make an impact. But I'm still worried his Poliwhirl may have an ice move because they like to be mean like that) or FishnChips, but only if he knows psychic moves (like confusion), if not, opt for Togetic and hope for the best. XD;

Now that I think about it, though, Fish may be the better option (even not as a Slowbro) since Poliwhirl is also a fighting type and Okami's defense may not be the greatest (sorry, Okami! <3 )

Well, Beedrill has a major type advantage because it resists fighting with both bug and poison, but it doesn't really have any good moves for killing except rage which increases in power every time it is attacked.

Actually, Crobat would work as well as Beedrill and it has super-effective moves too.

I would use Fish for Psychic type attacks, but make sure he has good defense

Gah, I forgot about this Let's Play! D= Good thing I'm all caught up now. And... I'm on the team now? =O I'm... I'm... I'm so grateful! T.T Thank you!

And I'm okay being your surf slave; at least I'm being useful. XD

As for what Pokemon to use... I'm no expert, but I guess flying types, since both his Pokemon are fighting? I always remember that flying is good against fighting... so goldenspines would be good, and maybe mechana, since I think fighting is weak against poison too? I'd say if mechana has flying attacks you should use him. But you might want to listen to people who know more about Pokemon than I do... XD

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Alright, Goldy. Mech. This next gym is all you so don't let me down!

Mech: Shouldn't be too big of a deal.

Goldy: Yeah, I mean its all fighting Pokemon and we have a type advantage.

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Well then...let's get this started.

*Several easy battles and boulder moving later*

Image

Chuck:Foolish Challenger! Do you really think you can stand up to the power of Chuck?!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...uh yes.

Chuck: Hmm your lack of shaking suggests that you aren't afraid yet? A demonstration is in order.

*Chuck grabs the closest boulder, tosses it in the air and round house kicks it into a nearby statue.*

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Uh...no...not at all.

Chuck: Huh...then you must be a major fool.

Image
*Chuck vs. Mr. Hat'n'Clogs*

Chuck: Our brutish might shall crush your flimsy Pokemon!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: We'll see about that...

Image
*Goldy vs. Primeape*

Chuck: A bird? Do you think a bird can outsmart our closest relative--

*Goldy flies around Primeape, pecking it repetitively as it tries to swipe at her, missing each time. Eventually it faints*

Chuck: Oh...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Flying>Fighting...in case you forgot.

Image
*mechana vs. Poliwhirl*

mechana: You know...these fights are starting to get really boring.

*mechana uses wing attack twice and wins without breaking a sweat. Mr. Hat'n'Clogs wins!*

Image

Chuck: Impossible! No one defeats Chuck Norris!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Wait...wait...wait. Chuck Norris?!

Chuck: Yes who did you think it was?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: But aren't you supposed to be white?

Chuck: Not in the Pokemon world kid. Here, Chuck Norris is...well...me.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...well...that changes things...

Chuck: Oh so that's why you weren't filled with fear...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Yeah.

Chuck: Oh...well just take this badge and...uh...let's never talk about this again.

*elsewhere*

???3: He defeated Chuck Norris?!

???4: Really, you make that sound as if its hard?

???3: But I mean, that puts him in rare company! Bruce Lee company!

???2: Please, these are Pokemon battles not a fist fight. Beating Chuck Norris at them is like beating a child at an arm wrestling match. Its easy.

*Back outside the gym*

Random Lady: Hey I saw you beat Chuck in there with some awesome Flying Pokemon. So here, I figure you'll have more use for this then me.

*Mr. Hat'n'Clogs recieves HM02. Aka Fly.*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Sweet! Now I can make Goldy carry us all around to the previous locations we visited!

Goldy: Um...I'm not that large of a bir--

*Goldy has learned Fly*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Too late.

Image

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Thanks for the medicine Sketchy Chemist who lives on this isalnd!

Sketchy Chemist: No problem, just be sure you don't mention me if it happens to cause the Pokemon to spontaneously combust and or explode.

Image
*Back at Olivine City*

Jasmine: Oh, is that the medicine?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Yep.

Jasmine: Great!

*Jasmine uses the medicine on the Ampharos. It gets better surprisingly*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: So now can you return to your gym?

Jasmine: Yeah, sure, I'll go back there and start accepting challengers again.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Yes! Looks like your going to get to shred through some electric types firestorm!

Jasmine: Oh I don't use Electric Pokemon.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: You don't? Then why were you so invested in fixing this Ampharos?

Jasmine: Because I like being a jerk to wannabe trainers who show up and thinking they can best me in combat. Usually they all die on the way to that island and I have to just do it myself but occasionally some survive. You did so that's something.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Ok miss superior, what type of Pokemon do you use?

*Jasmine releases Steelix and starts riding away on it.*

Jasmine: See you at the gym. And I hope you have some fighting or fire Pokemon with you and aren't going to have to rely on a normal flying type that knows one, weak fighting move.

firestorm: That was one of those new fangled Steel types...wasn't it...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Yep...

firestorm: And...we don't have any fighting or fire types in our party...

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: I'm more then aware of that...

firestorm: Well, looks like Garland's life has come to its end.

Garland: If it has...then I'll be sure to take some of them with me. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA *insert lightning flashes*

firestorm:...you know I was joking right...
--------------------------------

Have you caught all of the pokemon that you can so far? I would get a ground or fire type if at all possible. Water will work on Steelix, but don't send in a water pokemon against magnemite.

Teach someone dig or mud-slap, but not a water or flying type. Fire also works against magnemite if you can get it. Bayleaf can learn mud-slap, rattata can learn dig. That will probably work. Slowpoke should work for Steelix.

See if any pokemon can learn fire blast, which can be bought in Goldenrod City at the Game Corner. This should help too.

This reminds me that I recently did a Nuzlocke of FireRed and actually made it all the way to the battle against my rival for the championship.

Unfortunately all I had left when I got to him was a level 51 Pidgeot and...that wasn't enough for his team.

Also any Nuzlocke I've done in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald has inevitably ended at Norman's gym. I hate that gym.

*From the wilderness they emerge looking as if they had spent a year battling some sort of army of rabbid pokemon. The one human, their trainer, was clothed in tattered garments, on his vest were 5, dirty badges. Signs of past struggles long forgotten. The Pokemon that accompanied him were muscular beings covered in the dirt of whatever holy war they were fighting out there. But, there was one thing, above all else that caught the people of Olvine City's attention as the entered it. Something that brought a tear to the eye of even the manliest of men. Each one of them sported an epic, manly beard. Thicker then any anyone had ever seen and stronger too. As the entered the Pokemon center, a nurse behind the front desk fainted from the sheer manliness of such a sight. Onlookers fell to their knees and bowed down to the glory that were those beards. The man and his Pokemon approached the desk as another nurse stared on, her jaw dropped in sheer awe of the spectacle of manliness before here. She shook her head and then proceeded about her buisnees.*

Nurse: Can I...help you?

*She struggled to form the words before such a manly display of manliness. She knew that if she were a poet, she would be composing a thousand sonnets to describe the sheer testosterone those beards emanated. She suddenly wished that they had sent a poet instead of her because such beards deserved that treatment.*

???: I'd like a room for my companions and I.

*The man spoke with a voice that felt like velvet. More girls began to swoon and the nurse started to get nervous.*

Nurse: O...ok.

*The nurse turned to get a key when she realized something, and turned back to the man.*

Nurse: May I ask...what name should I put this room down under?

???: Mr. Hat'n'Clogs. Oh and please make sure I room has a lot of razors and a new set of clothing for me. I've got a date at the nearby Gym and I want to look my best.

Nurse: R...right.

*The nurse turned away and went about setting up there room, though she was confused as to why someone so manly would want to shave a beard like that.*

Image

*Several hours and several thousand Razors later*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Alright guys, its been a long time. But we're finally ready to face Jasmine. We've trained hard and well, I think we're ready. What about you guys?

Image
*firestorm is now a Meganium*

firestorm: I'm ready...to not fight.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Ok...wait what?!

firestorm: Look. We've been through a lot. I know. But I'm just not feeling this Gym. I mean Steel type? Really, what is grass supposed to do against that? I can't even tickle those Pokemon.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Fine...well, looks like we'll have to take someone else in your place.

Image
*Fish'n'Chips is now a Slobro*

Fish: I'll volunteer my services.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Thank you! So that makes our line up Fish'n'Chips, Midori, and finally Mr. Frodo. I'm liking this guys. I'm liking this a lot.

Image

*As they enter the gym a familiar face greets them.*

Random advice dude: Hey I remember you! Geez it feels like its been forever since we last met.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Yeah I've been...busy. So any advice for this gym that I should know?

Random advice dude: The gym leader uses those new fangled Steel type!

Mr. Hat'n'CLogs:....and?

Random advice dude: I've got no clue how to beat them. Good Luck!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...

Image

Jasmine: Oh its you. I was beginning to think you ran away in terror from my awesome Steel might!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: I never run! Only back away to re-think my strategy...

Jasmine: So that's what they're calling it these days. Well I suppose we should get this over with.

Image
*Jasmine vs. Mr. HatnClogs*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Time to display the fruits of are labors in the wilderness.

Jasmine: All the training in the world won't be able to break my iron defenses!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: We'll see about that. Ready FishnChips!

Fish: You got it!

Jasmine: That's your first Pokemon huh?

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Scared yet?

Jasmine: Well...

Image
*Fish vs. Magenimite*

Jasmine: Let's just say I'm prepared for everything.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Wait! I thought you said you didn't use Electric Pokemon?!

Jasmine: I didn't, but then I changed my mind while you were away.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...Ffffffffffffffffff

Fish: Don't worry, I got this. Even if that thing is made of Steel and Electricity it won't be able to stand up against my overwhelming mind!

*Fish uses confusion and its...not that effective.*

Fish: Oh...well maybe Water will do something.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Pff, it'll probably just clean it...

*Fish uses Water gun and defeats the Magenemite*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Well...that was unexpected.

Fish: And easy.

Image
*Midori vs. Magnemite*

Midori: Well if Fish had an easy time, then I'm sure I will have an even easier time thanks to BITE!

*Midori bites the Magenemite which promptly shocks him in response.*

Midori: BZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTT....ok maybe not the best idea...well lets see how you like MONEY!!!

*Midori uses Pay Day which causes a few dents to the Magenemite who promptly shocks him again.*

Midori: Dude this guy is tough...

Fish: Want me to take care of hi--

Midori: NO! No...I got this...I think...

*Midori Tries one more Bite attack as the Magemite shocks him again they both fall down and look to be out.*

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: MIDORI!!!!

*Midori suddenly pulls himself to his feet panting.*

Midori: Yeah...that's right...I can take anything you can dish out...and then some.

*Midori is victorious*

Image
*Mr. Frodo vs. Steelix*

Jasmine: If you thought he was tough try Steelix on for size!

Midori: Oh...he's kind of big...

Mr. Frodo: I got this one.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: You sure? I mean...you aren't exactly the strongest one...here...at all...

Mr. Frodo: You put me in this lineup so let me do my part!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Actually I was kind of hoping that Fish would--

Fish: Let him take care of it.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs; But Fish...he's the Surf slave. His entire purpose is to let us cross bodies of water. He's not supposed to fight!

Fish: Don't you remember Mr. Hat'n'Clogs. What you said when we were in the wilderness.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Actually I don't my memory's a little...hazy of that time--

Fish: You told us that if we believed in ourselves and spent many hours fighting the same, low level Pokemon over and over again. There was no obstacle that any of us couldn't overcome. Mr. Frodo spent that time grinding away while you weren't looking. And now, we're going to see his power.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs:...I hope so...

Mr. Frodo: Hey you! Big guy! *The Steelix looks at Mr. Frodo and begins to laugh.*

Mr. Frodo: You think you're pretty tough right? With your fancy steel plating and massive...snake body. Well let me tell you something. By the end of this, you're going to be crying for your mother.

*The Steelix is now rolling on the ground in laughter, and even Jasmine is starting to crack up as well.*

Jasmine: Oh, little dude, you need to learn your place! Steelix, let's teach this one that Goliath isn't garanteed to loose to David.

Mr. Frodo: Heh...well...I've got a better idea...how about you...eat...my...SURRRRRRRRFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!!!!!

*The ground begins to rumble as water burst through and into the Gym, forming a giant wave that sweeps down on the now stunned Steelix and throws him into the wall. As the water clears the Steelix appears again, not moving, and with tears in its eyes.*

Mr. Frodo: Heh, what did I say...crying for your mommy.

*Hat'n'Clogs is victorious.*

Image

Jasmine: Wh...what?!

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: NICE! Alright now give me that new badge!

Jasmine: But...how...how could...

Mr. Frodo: I think we've left her speechless.

Mr. Hat'n'Clogs: Well she shouldn't be. I mean what did you do this entire time we were away? Catch those Magnemites and watch TV?!

Jasmine:...Maybe...anyway...here...take that badge and leave.

------------

*Elsewhere*

???2: He's won another badge finally. But, there's something else.

???1: What might that be?

???3: Our readings seem to indicate some sort of radio spike coming from Mahagony.

???4: We've also received some reports of Gyrados raging in Lake Rage...which seems like it shouldn't be that shocking.

???1: Except their out of season...how odd. Where's the next gym for the subject?

???2: It's in Mahagony.

???1: Well...I think its time the subject meets the Champion.
