Medea Plays Pokemon Scarlet & Violet: Part III
I’ll get to Larry soon enough.
This might be a longer than normal post. I got in an extra day of playing due to a snow storm preventing me from going to work. Tee-hee. Let’s see how my journey is fairing out.
*gasp* Would you look at that?! A shiny! I’m not even a shiny hunter.
Oh my goodness, two of them!
Just like with Legends Arceus, it’s a little easier to point out and find shinies.
Is this a nod to the anime and TR’s Meowth or just a coincidence. I see what you did here, game.
I ran into more interesting-looking students again. Not as cringey as bruh who looks like a pedo. Buuut...
Ooh, oh no. This woman got a Frollo hairdo-look going on. What are you doing, Pokemon?
Okay, I have to admit. Out of all the memes on the internet involving the new Pokemon game, there’s one character/pokemon that I’m enjoying with all of the memes. I think you know who I mean.
That’s right. Oop, wrong file photo.
Yeah, I kinda fell in love with this sledgehammer-wielding psychopath.
Let’s see what’s up with school.
Huh. This reminds me of a Ren and Stimpy episode.
Them lummoxes love their meat on meat sandwiches. Maybe Miss Dendra is related to the lummoxes. Meanwhile, in art class...
Say no more. I’m shipping this until the day I die. Hassel loves his dear Brassie. It chokes him up inside.
Wow...um. I didn’t expect him to start crying because he heard Brassie-boy’s depression through art. This isn’t the last time you’ll see him cry.
You have no idea, lady. Let’s check out the Team Star incident.
Oh God. I know bullying is very wrong and everything, especially in this game. But...this kid just has such a punchable face. He’s like Bede, Dilandau, and Trip all mish-mashed into one entity.
Seriously, this kid here. I would like to punch him. And that’s stiff competition because the last Team Star person I fought before this little dingleberry acts like David Cross playing a Warlock.
But, you learn to let the fists go when you learn about Team Star and how they are not in the wrong. Like, at all. Everything stems back from 18 months ago. Team Star was bullied. Teachers did nothing. Team Star was formed under the guidance of the unseen boss. Turmoil hit the school. Bullies were sent to Galar. Teachers resigned. The former director covered everything up. Team Star was used as a scapegoat.
But educators like Clavell, Ms. Tyme, Jacq-strap, all of those people started AFTER this incident. The final Team Star boss is.
Whoa. I am at a loss of words with Eri. Except, I think she might be the daughter to a professional ultimate fighter and Stripperella. I ain’t even sorry for that crack.
After defeating all 5 squad bosses, you learn the hacker who told you to track down all the places and defeat the bosses that they are indeed the big boss. They will fight you on the school grounds at sundown. Let’s smash some titans.
I know you see this ginormous fella earlier in the game, like when your team is at level 20-30. Heed my advice and wait until, maybe your 6th badge to fight him. If you don’t believe me, look at some playthroughs on Youtube. People were not expecting this. Now for the confusing titan.
Is this the titan? I mean, he is bigger than some of the oth...
Ohhhhhhhh shiiiiiii...
Don’t worry, he comes back once you beat Monstro, the big, blue whatchamafucker.
So, is this guy really the titan or was the big fella the titan? I don’t know. Let’s continue.
Oh God...don’t kill me with this now.
Doggo all better. Me happy. Me very happy. Let nothing ruin this...
Bad timing. Bad timing from bad parent. And if you don’t believe me...
I feel like this was Arven’s childhood in a nutshell.
But now, Arven’s mother Professor Crazy Bitch needs his help.
Wait, aren’t we forbidden from entering the hellhole of Paldea.
That is not a good sign. Let’s wrap things up with the Victory Road saga.
Meet Japanese businessman gym leader. A.K.A. Larry. And according to the internet, the most interesting man in Paldea. I’ll stick to my Tinkaton memes thank you very much.
The interesting gym challenges continue. For Larry’s gym, you have to order the correct secret dish that he eats at this restaurant. You get clues from fighting trainers all over town.
Next gym will have you compete in double battles in front of a crowd. When the crowd is warmed up, it’s time for a concert with Gym Leader Ryme. Yes, she’s the sister of your math teacher Miss Tyme.
Oh and the gym leader also does double battles. So there’s that.
In the next gym, Miss Dendra comes in with battle faces. You will also fight some trainers. No, Dendra is not the gym leader. She’s just good friends with her.
On a side-note, Miss Dendra is the best teacher.
Anyways, fight the Cover Girl model and win a badge. In your final badge...
You have to go through this Mario Party-style obstacle course and race down before time runs out. And then you can fight Grusha.
I kept forgetting he was a boy this whole time. These characters confuse me greatly. Okay, you obtain all 8 badges, time to meet with Geeta the champ.
I was really hoping the first time someone fought for me it would be Tracey Sketchit and not female-Goku over here.
So, you know how after you finish the gym battles, you go on to Victory Road and then face the Elite Four. There’s one trainer outside the Pokemon League and that’s it. Oh, there’s something you’ll have to face that’s more terrifying than 10+ trainers in a cave.
I know I know all the answers. But she’s so intimidating that I fear I might slip-up.
After that, you face off against the Elite Four. This includes Rika, a toddler, your art teacher, and...
Oops, wrong file photo.
...
They’re the same thing.
Yes, not since Koga have we seen such a jump. After you defeat all four of them, Geeta time.
You know what? I have some things to say. This was by-far, the easiest Elite Four I’ve faced-off against. This might be because a year prior to this, I was facing off against Sinnoh’s Elite Four + Cynthia. Plus, these guys don’t stop in mid-battle to give their pokemon a Full Restore. They just take the beating, thinking they’re going to annihilate you. Spoiler alert, they don’t. Also, don’t expect to take them on again after this. You can only fight the Elite Four once.
That’s right. Let me say it again for the people in the back. This is the only time you can fight the Elite Four and Geeta in this setting.
And now you’re champ.
He’s so overcome with joy. Okay, time for a sandwich break.
To be continued...
