Pokemon SoulSilver - Long road to Pewter City

I decided to head east onto Route 15 to do more training and to explore the Kanto region. I quickly came across a class of children on a field trip, and started battling. The first child had Electric-Type Pokemon who went down against Seth and Claire, and the second had a pair of Psychic-Type Pokemon that Claire beat quickly.

The next Trainer I fought was their Teacher, with a Sunkern and Aipom. Seth used Sludge Bomb to take down Sunkern, and Leaf Blade took out Aipom. After the battle I exchanged phone numbers with the Teacher, and continued east. I snagged a Rose Incense, and then got into another battle. Seth won easily and I kept going east.

I encountered another Student and got into a battle, and Claire grew to Level 55! I found myself soon on Route 14 where I fought against a Bird Keeper, and Seth powered on through to reach Level 55 too. I went north and got into another battle, against a Trainer with Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander, and Blake fought through all three for victory.

I went a bit farther north, and spotted Suicune staring at me atop the water, before it ran north. Eusine wasn't far behind, as usual, and told me he was starting to understand what Suicune is after. He wanted to keep the information to himself, but also wanted to be honest in front of Suicune. Eusine told me that Suicune prefers a hilly place near water, somewhere north, and I knew the perfect place that fit the description.

Eusine challenged me to find Suicune before him, and with a clear idea of where it would be I knew it would be mine. I fought against a Trainer with a Psyduck and beat him before I encountered another Trainer north of him. I won that battle too, and traded phone numbers with the Trainer before I encountered Cameron the Photographer who got a picture of me and my team.

I kept going north, and found Route 13 which was a large fence maze, going between Lavender Town and Fuchsia City. I got into a battle with a Hiker, and Blake took out all three of his Rock-Type Pokemon. I exchanged phone numbers with the Hiker before I started navigating my way through the maze.

I finally made it out of the maze, and with a few numbers traded and Blake having grown to Level 56, I continued east onto a bridge. I started north and found myself fighting several more Trainers standing along the bridge. Edward grew to Level 56 after a couple battles, then I had Seth training.

The bridge turned out to be Route 12, and as I continued north I got into a few more battles. I found myself in front of a house on the dock, owned by the youngest brother of the Fishing Guru. I told him I enjoyed fishing, and he handed over the Super Rod.

I fought a few more Trainers north of the house, and Seth grew to Level 56. I went north toward Lavender Town through a Double Battle and several normal battles. Claire grew to Level 56, then I went to the Pokemon Center in Lavender Town to heal my team. After I left the Center I headed back to Route 12 and then went west toward Route 11.

I started through a large field with several Trainers walking through natural paths in the grass. I fought against a Psychic, and after the battle Samuel grew to Level 57! I continued west and battled against a couple Youngsters and a Psychic before I came across a Snorlax in the road.

I knew that a Pokemon Flute could wake Snorlax, but I didn't have a standard Flute on me at the time. I decided to check my radio now that I had access to the Kanto stations, and lucky enough I found a Pokemon Flute station playing. I got into a fight with the Snorlax when it woke up.

I sent out Edward against the Snorlax, and he used Thunderbolt for great damage, before Snorlax used Block to stop Edward from escaping. Snorlax gained some health with it's Leftovers, and then Edward used Thunderbolt for great damage and caused paralysis. Snorlax couldn't do anything because of the Paralysis, but it did gain some health with Leftovers. I tossed a Heavy Ball and it failed, and Snorlax gained a bit more health with Leftovers.

Edward used Thunderbolt again, a critical hit that knocked out Snorlax. I was a bit disappointed that I didn't get to capture it, but I did have it's pre-evolved form, Munchlax, in Sinnoh, so I could get a Snorlax later. With the route to Diglett's Cave cleared, I went inside.

I spotted a man inside who was somehow surprised when he spotted a lot of Diglett who crawled out from underground. I went down below and headed north, then got topside again. I spotted a house south of my position, and the man inside gave me a Nugget as thanks for visiting, before I went north, cut down a tree, and found myself in Pewter City.

I healed my team at the Pokemon Center, and got ready to see the sights of this new city. I couldn't wait to get my next Gym Badge.
