Pokemon SoulSilver - The Cerulean Cave and Catching Mewtwo

I had heard about a cave with powerful Pokemon in Cerulean City, and I found it after a little bit of surfing before I went inside. I had Edward use Flash to brighten up the dark cave, and started to explore. There were odd crystal formations around, and almost immediately I had to use Surf to move through a pond and then up a ladder.

I found myself in a crystal maze, and went around to find TM24 (Thunderbolt) before I went back around and down the ladder again. I surfed around and climbed up some stairs, then snagged a Nugget before going up another ladder, where I found myself in the crystal maze again. I found a PP Up and went down the ladder again.

I did some exploring, and in a battle with some wild Pokemon Samuel grew to Level 60. I found a Full Restore and moved onward, and after a few battles with wild Pokemon, Claire grew to Level 60 too. I smashed some rocks south of the ladder, and I found a Heart Scale, Max Ether, and a Revive before I continued on.

I went up another ladder, and found myself in a large area in the crystal maze. I used my dowsing device to find an Ultra Ball, a Zinc, a Full Heal, a PP Up, and a Big Pearl. I also got into another battle with a wild Pokemon, and Samuel grew to Level 60. I went down the ladder, then under a bridge, and I found a Revive before I went across the bridge to get a Sea Incense and a Max Elixir.

I went up the ladder at the south of the bridges, and found myself in the crystal maze again. I worked my way through, then down a ladder, then down yet another ladder. I found myself in a new part of the cavern, and I found a spot where I needed to use Rock Climb. I couldn't have my Pokemon learn an HM over another HM, so I decided to replace Edward's Flash instead.

I navigated my way through the cavern, grabbing an Ultra Ball, a Max Revive, a Black Sludge, and an Electirizer before I found myself before Mewtwo (Psychic, Lv. 70). I saved the game, then got ready for a tough fight. It was a good thing I loaded up on Ultra Balls and Dusk Balls before I got in here!

Blake was sent out against it, and Mewtwo used Power Swap to do some kind of switch of Attack and Special Attack between it and Blake. Blake used Crunch to do great damage, but it seemed it was weakened from that move. Mewtwo used Power Swap again, then Blake used Crunch again for great damage. Blake used Ice Fang next to do good damage, then Mewtwo used Guard Swap to change defense and special defense.

Mewtwo used Amnesia to increase it's special defense, then Blake used Ice Fang again to do good damage and push Mewtwo to the red. I switched over to Claire, and Mewtwo used Guard Swap again. Mewtwo used Power Swap next, then Claire used Hypnosis to put it to sleep. I tried a couple Dusk Balls with no effect, and then Mewtwo used Psycho Cut to knock out Claire. I sent out Blake again and tried more Dusk Balls.

Mewtwo wasn't doing much besides Guard Swap and Power Swap, but the Dusk Balls appeared to be doing some good. Mewtwo used a Psycho Cut to do massive damage to Blake, but he held on as I kept throwing those Dusk Balls. Blake was knocked out by another Psycho Cut, then I switched to Seth.

Seth got hit by Psycho Cut for massive damage, but he hung on while I kept on with Dusk Balls. Seth was eventually knocked out, and I switched over to Edward and kept on trying. After a time Edward was knocked out too, and I switched over to Samuel. Samuel got knocked out after a couple blows from Psycho Cut, then I had to switch to my last Pokemon, Rayquaza.

I decided to use a Revive to get Claire up and ready to try Hypnosis again. Rayquaza was knocked out, and I had to get Claire back in the fight. Claire was able to put Mewtwo to sleep, then I kept on with Dusk Balls. Thankfully my efforts weren't in vain, and Mewtwo was finally caught while under the effects of Hypnosis!

I went to heal my team at the Pokemon Center, then I gave Edward the Electirizer before trading him over to Sinnoh, then getting him back to make him evolve into Electivire! Now Edward is stronger than ever, and now I'm ready to go to Mt. Silver, at least to check it out.
