My team consisted of:
Cole (Pignite, Fire/Fighting, Lv. 21)
Madelyn (Tranquill, Normal/Flying, Lv. 21)
Zach (Liepard, Dark, Lv. 20)
Nora (Tympole, Water, Lv. 21)
Arthur (Pansage, Grass, Lv. 20)
Mason (Blitzle, Electric, Lv. 20)
I went inside and received a Fresh Water from Clyde at the entrance, and went forward to see a honeycomb-like maze I would have to navigate. There were large walls of honey I had to push through so I could make my way through into small rooms, where I had to step on switches to open gates that would light up.
I went through some honey, stepped on a switch and went east, then got into a battle. The Harlequin sent out a pair of Bug-Type Pokemon and Cole took them out easily, then he grew to Level 22. I stepped on a nearby switch and went through another wall of honey. I noticed artwork from Burgh hanging on the walls, but I couldn't really observe them. The next large room I found myself in had 3 switches, and I knew only one could be the real switch.
I tried the middle, and out popped a Harlequin. Another couple Bug-Type Pokemon were sent out in a battle, but Madelyn was able to knock them out easily. I went to step on the switch to the right, and this one activated the light on the right side of the nearby door, then I went to the switch to the left of it and unlocked it fully.
I was able to unlock the main gate partially with the switch I found, and then I went around to step on another couple switches, and got into another battle with a Harlequin. Madelyn beat both the Harlequin's Bug-Type Pokemon, and she grew to Level 22 before I unlocked the main gate and went through.
I found Burgh standing on top of a platform, and he thanked me for my help, and he told me that his bug Pokemon were excited to battle with me. We got right into it, and I sent out Cole against his Whirlipede. Cole used Flame Charge for massive damage, then Whirlipede countered with Screech to lower Cole's defense, but another Flame Charge took it out.
Dwebble was sent out next, and I kept Cole in the fight. Cole hit Dwebble with Flame Charge for great damage, then it countered with Sand-Attack to lower Cole's accuracy. I had Cole strike with Rock Smash next for great damage which also lowered it's defense, before Dwebble countered with Smack Down for great damage. Cole used Flame Charge once more to knock out Dwebble, and then Leavanny was sent out.
I sent out Madelyn against Leavanny, knowing it would have a double weakness to Flying-Type Pokemon like her. Leavanny used Protect to prevent Air Cutter from doing damage, then it struck with Razor Leaf for good damage before Madelyn countered with Air Cutter for massive damage. Leavanny used Razor Leaf again for good damage, but Madelyn countered with another Air Cutter to knock out Leavanny, grow to Level 23, she learned Detect in place of Leer. With Leavanny down, I had won the battle!
Burgh was a bit disappointed at his loss, but it turned out he wasn't too concerned about it because of my strength. Burgh handed over the Insect Badge, which would allow me to control Pokemon up to Level 40. Burgh also gave me TM76 (Struggle Bug) which lowers special attack of the target that was damaged by it.
I left the building, and got a call on my Xtransceiver, and found Bianca was calling me. She wanted to know where I was, and asked me for a battle. Bianca told me she had been trained by Iris, and she had become a little stronger, confident she could protect her Pokemon on her own. I told her I would meet her at the gate to Route 4, north of the city, and I decided I would heal my Pokemon first.
I decided I would call it a day, and I would battle Bianca later. I'm sure I've got a lot more to see and do, and I could only hope that my team would be strong enough for the road ahead.
