Vermilion City

Day 7:

After we slept the night in the Pokemon Center, we headed for Vermilion, wondering what challenges were in store for us.

As we arrived, we headed to the Pokemon Center, and healed everyone.

They we decided to check out the Pokemon Fan Club there.
As we went in, there was a rampaging Psyduck, which was causing havoc.

The chairman didn't know what was wrong with it.
I suggested that the trainer told it to use Calm Mind, and as soon as Psyduck used it, it calmed down, and was fine.
I then had a chat with all the trainers there, as well as the Chairman, who gave me some tips for the gym. I can't wait to try them out.

We then headed straight for the gym.

We challenged Lt. Surge, and the match started.

Nidoran beat his Voltorb, because Nidoran can ground Electric Attacks.

Nidoran then evolved into a Nidorino, which was really amazing.

Then we had a Double Battle, Nidorino and Bulbasaur v Pikachu and Riachu

Nidorino and Bulbasaur pulled off some great combination moves, and Nidorino shielded Bulbasaur from a super-powerful Thunder attack. So I switched him out, and sent out Voltorb.

Bulbasaur then KOed Pikachu, and Voltorb showed off it's Explosion attack, hurting Bulbasaur, and KOing Riachu, to earn me the Thunder Badge.

As soon as we left the gym, we healed up.

Voltorb was really pumped up afterwards, so we headed for Rock Tunnel while he was on the high.

As we went along Route 11, Voltorb was beating Spearows and Rattatas, and was getting more and more powerful. He wasn't a baby any more.

While we were going down Route 9, I realised that I needed Flash to get through Rock Tunnel, so I taught it to Voltorb, who was really happy with the attack.

As we arrived at the start of the Tunnel, the sun was setting, so we camped there for the night.
