Pokemon SoulSilver - Olivine City

After I healed my team, I talked to some people in the Pokemon Center, and one told me she just finished with her Ball Capsule. She asked if I wanted to battle to see it. I agreed, and I sent out Seth against her Bellossom, who appeared with a bunch of flower petals. Seth used Acid for massive damage, and then Bellossom countered with Mega Drain for minor damage. Seth finished the battle with Cut, and then he grew to Level 25.

I walked around town and came across Cameron the Photographer, and I agreed to another photo. I did some exploring, and came across the home of a Fisherman who had been fishing there for 30 years. He was kind enough to give me a Good Rod, and advised me to check every body of water for Water-Type Pokemon.

I talked to more people and found one who wanted to get a Krabby for his Voltorb, but I had both and didn't want to give up the former when it took a lot of luck finding it on the Pokewalker. Soon enough I found myself at the Olivine Cafe, filled with Sailors eating hearty meals before they went back to their boats docked at the port.

I decided to check out the Glitter Lighthouse, and find out what the Gym Leader, Jasmine, was doing up at the top. I took the elevator up, and found Jasmine in the center of the room with an Ampharos, but the small circular area they were in was locked, and the only way to it was up a ladder. I knew I would need to get through the Lighthouse the long way to talk with her.

I soon came across an old man who wanted to battle, and he sent out Noctowl against Lucas. Lucas used Twister for minor damage, and caused Noctowl to flinch. Lucas used Gust next for minor damage, then Noctowl used Reflect to increase it's defense. I decided to switch to Edward to fight it, and he got hit by Peck for minor damage, but his ability paralyzed Noctowl! Edward hit it with Thunder punch for great damage, then it countered with Confusion for good damage. Edward hit Noctowl with Shock Wave next, and it was knocked out to win the battle.

We exchanged phone numbers, and then I continued onward. I stopped just a few steps away from the old man to answer a call from Mom, who told me about buying another item, and that it was waiting at the nearby Poke' Mart. I soon came across another Sailor who wanted to fight, and I sent out Lucas against his Poliwag. Lucas and the Poliwag traded blows with Gust and Double Slap, before Lucas finished it with Quick Attack and grew to Level 25. I sent out Edward against his Poliwhirl, and Edward used Shock Wave which knocked it out in a single blow to win the battle.

I exchanged phone numbers with the sailor and continued onward up the ladder to the next floor. I got to the top of the ladder and was told by a Bird Keeper that this wasn't a place to mess around, and that I should leave. I responded by sending Edward out to fight her, and she sent out Pidgey against him. Edward used Thunder Punch to knock out Pidgey instantly, and then another was sent out. Edward got hit by Quick Attack for good damage, then hit Pidgey with Thunder Punch to knock it out. Another Pidgey was sent out, and another Thunder Punch knocked it out. Edward grew to Level 25, and learned Light Screen in place of Leer. I sent out Blake against the next Pidgey, and his Ice Fang knocked it out in one blow. Blake grew to Level 25, then I sent out Samuel against the last Pidgey. Samuel used Flame Wheel for massive damage, and knocked out the last Pidgey to grow to Level 25. With the battle won, I was told by the Bird Keeper that she didn't know how to get to the top, telling me the way was blocked.

I fought against another Gentleman, and his pair of Growlithe went down easily against Blake. I fought against a Lass whose Marill went down easily against Seth. I got a call from Irwin after the battle, congratulating me on beating the Ecruteak Gym. He told me he had gone to the entrance to cheer me on, but got scared off by the Mediums that were there. I looked around and found TM87 (Swagger), then realized why the Bird Keeper had issues; the ladders to the next area were in their own big room. I noticed light coming from a doorway to the right, and I went outside to find a Rare Candy and a doorway to the other room.

I fought against another Sailor whose Water-Type Pokemon were beaten quickly by Seth. I grabbed a nearby Ether and fought against a Bird Keeper, and I walked way victorious after a short battle. I made my way up the ladder, then around to fight against another couple Sailors. Seth grew to Level 26, and one of the Sailors told me that Jasmine's Type-Focus changed seemingly overnight. I wondered to myself how common that could be in a Pokemon League as I made my way up the ladder to meet her.

I finally met Jasmine, who told me that the Ampharos always kept the sea lit at night. She told me it suddenly got sick, and was gasping for air. She told me she knew of the Pharmacy in Cianwood, but told me that it was across the sea, and that she couldn't leave "Amphy" unattended. I told her I would surf to Cianwood and get the medicine for her, and she opened the door for me to get to the elevator and back to the bottom.

I healed my team at the Pokemon Center, and got ready to surf a long way for the medicine needed to heal Amphy. I wondered what kind of challenges were ahead as I left the Pokemon Center, and headed for the Poke' Mart to stock up on supplies for the journey.
