Glalie
Episode 7
https://pokemon.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000003868024
Before this I did some off screen restocks in hammerlocke before boarding the train to wyndon
Also I noticed Glalie was fainting a lot, so maybe I need another way to deal with hail besides having pelipper shut it down.
An interesting observation I found is that apparently SWSH allows you to override the weather with stuff like drizzle, but SV I think disabled it. That feels like a downgrade.
That said I honestly think hail->snow is better because I'm forced to use an ice type like Glalie here to maneuver around hails chip damage. Snow is probably more flexible so I don't need to have an ice type forced on my team at all times (which is honestly harder to come by compared to ground, Rock and steel types).
Can we collectively agree to never import tinkaton to galar? Thanks.
Anywho, now for the champions cup.
Hilariously,I swapped grimmsnarl in for this one and it's against Marnie. Didn't plan that at all..
No g max snooze for me.
Grimmsnarl is my lead against liepard.
We both went for fake out but liepard managed to win toe priority war. It then went for nasty plot as I went for revenge...and my sucker punch got countered by a hyper potion.
I then decide to go for dynamax grimmsnarl to prep for the mirror match later, and land a max knuckle to take out liepard.
Toxicroak swaggers me but I get Misty terrain off via max Starfall, taking out the frog in the process.
Unfortunately grimmsnarl hurts himself via swaggers confusion so I only get a +3 as opposed to deleting scrafty as well. Oh well. A full restore should do the trick.
While misty terrain probably is gonna wear off by the time I get to grimmsnarl, it protects me from another swagger confusion and revenge defeats scrafty.
Scrafty did scary face me earlier,and I have revenge, which I attempt to deploy on the g max grimmsnarl.
Grimmsnarl does end up going down here, but the misty terrain is back so I don't have to worry about g max snooze, which Perserker takes 1 relatively well before also falling, though he did get an iron head in before going down.
Weezing is my choice to finish it off, a bulk up fails to stop a sludge bomb from deleting him.
For the hop battle, I swap Perserker for Glalie, and lead with runerigus.
She defeats the poor dubwool with 1 revenge. Snorlax fares slightly better, living on red HP.
Again, a potion thwarts my attempt to beat Snorlax then and there, but revenge does seal the deal at the end thanks to runerigus low speed meaning it's gonna always have x2 multiplier.
Next is corviknight, so I swap to quagsire since runerigus can't hit that thing. Quagsire tanks a drill peck and fires back with a muddy water. Then we both miss swagger and muddy water respectively, though the next turn swagger lands and muddy water doesn't. Eventually, quagsire gets corviknight to low HP but due to confusion misses the ko...
Eventually quag prevails, but it's a bit weakened when pincurchin comes in, so I let rillaboom smash the sea urchin with a wood hammer.
Rillabooms got a few dmax candies, the most of my mons, so I decide to have her dynamax against hops inteleon. Of course, Hop sets up hail with max hailstorm as rillaboom goes for max overgrowth...
Uh...that was anticlimactic. Anywho, moving on...
Unfortunately for me this time, rose may actually be a challenge as l lack fire coverage to defeat him all. I think this is the part where I fight oleana first though. I swap in Perserker for grimmsnarl for this.
I just realized how ugly Oleana looks...with hindsight about g max garbodor it makes sense now. Anywho time to play "catch the league staff".
Battle of the Vikings in galar. (
Meowth lost. And a Marnie boost defeats the ant even though it got a crunch off and needed 2 eqs to take down as opposed to meowths just 1. That has to be embarrassing, losing to a runestone.
Wait no intimidate from mawile? Huh. Runerigus eq for the win again. However, excadrill is next so I swap to quag...and get a defense Marnie cheer.
Rock slide why~?
Anywho I got the rain up with rain dance and excadrill is defeated by 1 muddy water. When do you get quagsire in Johto again, I'm surprised mine is still useful in the endgame basically.
For round 3 I decide to let Perserker reclaim steel types honor. He taunts feroseed before we exchange iron head and pin missile (rolling a 4 without loaded dice too!).
Quag has to fight steelix (becuz it's steelix, I can't mess around), though this time she yawns steelix beforehand then sets up rain as the giant snake goes to sleep , allowing a muddy water ko.
A Piers distraction allows access tyeaho rose tower...and the steel type gauntlet. I swap Glalie for pelipper to reduce my steel vulnerability before heading on in, and have quag as my lead.
I had to use this because cufant went for dig. Sure using it with a levitating target was dumb but I really had to in case cufant would cause a problem.
Seriously? Now you have intimidate? Why? Intimidate I'm pretty sure is one of the best abilities, why wouldn't you want it available in most instances? (Also I feel sorry the employees who are just doing their job)
That said...muddy waters accuracy...it's pulling a focus miss a lot. Especially in the last battle where quag got defeated by steel trap, prompting Perserker to have to finish of the stunfisk galar who set it up.
Intimidate+Scary Face be like.
Anywho for frosslass I had to swap from quag to Perserker, and get punished with a will o wisp, so I swap to weezing becuz if I'm not a physical attacker, burn doesn't matter.
1 double team isn't enough to stop poison types from landing toxic, lass! (A full restore was used to recover off a burn)
Thank Arceus that's gone. Afterwards, rillabooms wood hammer destroys milotic, and quags eq defeats salazzle, and pelipper defeats tsareena with air slash.
Now,it's persekers time to shine against garbodor.
Unfortunately max steelspike with a burn fails to out damage garbodor as it got 2 weak armor boosts, and Perserker is eventually defeated. That being said the dynamax boost is gone, so I send in quag to finish garbodors weakened defenses off with earthquake.
Yeah quagsire did a lot of heavy lifting here. Again, I wonder how soon you get one in gen 2....
Anywho, I think I'm gonna wrap up here, this has gone on for long enough, next time I'll continue the champions cup. Will I get to eternatus I don't know, but I'll try to get there as much as possible.
Due to a data corruption on my phone's system UI I lost all the information I wanted to post today.
It's mostly just defeating Piers and Raihan, and also acquiring a Drizzle Pelipper who was sort of key to helping me work around the latter.
Sorry about the shorter post, I'll get back to a regular length episode tomorrow, in the meantime help me decide on what 5 mons I'll use alongside rillaboom to get from here to eternatus all the way to leon from the following
-Quagsire
-Grimmsnarl
-Weezing-Galar
-Pelliper
-Runerigus
-Perserker
-Glalie
Because I'm not really sure rotating around now is a smart idea, but I dunno who to use.
Also I'm keeping rillaboom becuz as much as I haven't used her, it feels wrong to box my starter.
(Oh and previous episode: https://pokemon.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000003867817 )
Episode 5;
https://pokemon.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000003866642
Decided to keep weezing on board after some research, I'll need a burn/poison to get past shuckles insane defenses.
I dunno if I have to trigger this, but I'm gonna quickly get through it.
Opals a hypocrite, she said her favorite color was purple. Now she's interested in pink? *Cue confusion birds chirping*
Huh, how's rose gonna fit a dynamax Mon in hammerlockes basement? Those things are huge.
Hop battle...I Dunn...morgrem nearly slices trevanant in half with false surrender but it gets a confuse ray off and survives. Why? Dark pulse does finish it off though.
Anywho Snorlax is next and I regret not bringing pancham, timburr or Scraggy to it, so I use runerigus instead.
Nvm stockpile means I'm going nowhere, weezing time.
Now for rillaboom to hold a show. (Heavy slam hurts on weezing)...nvm drum beating+toxic was enough to defeat it.
Next is...I thought it was Durant but it's heatmor. I accidentally stayed in with rillaboom but swap to quag for a better option.
Manage to get heatmor to sleep, now for rain dance and muddy water for the ko.
I send runerigus in against boltund, and set up a curse (I outsped it? What was it using? Oh roar)
Seriously hop? You don't crunch on runerigus? Eat a drum beating.
Spark vs snipe shot put us both at low HP...is it a speed tie? (Inteleon somehow outsped my dog...and she barely won via the power of friendship. Challenge runs, please use friendship more often).
Well I admitedly wanted Perserker bit this is fine.
Nah, forget about it, I don't want to have just mons that are useful for poke jobs and are otherwise gonna idle in the box. I also did a check, I wrote at least 1 Mon per area, not 1 Mon only, so I can use Perserker. (I briefly swapped out runerigus but then swapped it in place of boltund to give my dog a nice rest for today).
Who cares if you have frisk instead of prankster? You're still one of the coolest Galarian mons ever.
Also runerigus barely survived getting evicted twice after grimmsnarl one shotted a dusclops I wanted to get and a golett I caught has klutz. You know what, she deserves to stay after that cruel Evo method.
Ok, no vgc or doubles player is using brutal swing. Especially since it basically requires telepathy to dodge. (And surprisingly my runerigus after wandering spirit tricked on sand rush became pretty fast. That's surprising considering...it's base speed is like 30 or something. )
Finally got one at long last (I had to use an NPC camp as I ran out of main curry ingredients,gen 10 pls give main food ingredients out as side quest rewards).
...I sent snover and vanillite off on a poke job too...this is gonna be pain...
I catch a snoruny on the way to, umm what's it called *looks it up* circhester yes! It will probably help more on the way to spikemuth to circumvent the hail (like Vanilluxe did on my initial playthrough ( +Glalie is cool.
Anywho gym puzzle was definitely tough, but quag took out the gym trainers, now for Gordie.
Since quag put in a lot of hard work already, I decided to let rillaboom take the lead here as Gordie starts off with Barbaracle. Perfect.
As shuckles came out I swapped into weezing as it power split. Weezing toxics shuckle (helpful becuz shuckle is gonna be hard to take down) and gets confusion off on it with strange steam.
Toxic and strange steam manages to take down the silly wall that is shuckle. Weezing does the same as stonjourner goes for wonder room (wait it had that?). It also sets up rocks so weezing has to 1v1 gmax coalisall...not what she's here for but what gives? Weezing also gets paralyzed by body slam and gets a 1hp affection live to take out stonjourner. Great job!
Obviously, quag has to take on colossal due to typing. I'd liked a toxic but weezings too weak to do so.
Dmax Turn 1 was a weather war between geyser and flare, but colossal got powered up by steam engine. The goes increased speed allowed me to set up the rain second and keep it that way with a max guard before we both de-dynamaxed. (Gordie did go for g max volcalith... luckily that was dodged)
Quagsire disrespect mud shot for the win! Who needs unaware?
Glalie also arrived at just the right time for another hop battle with ice body (oops no it had inmer focus )and hail.
Dubwool put up a good fight but Glalie eventually uses the hail to overwhelm it. Snorlax eventually overwhelmed Glalie till it only had 1hp, so I sent runerigus in his place.
Finally, a way to hit normal types with my ghost (revenge). It also helps that runerigus is slow so the secondary effects gonna kick in guaranteed.
I swap a weakened Glalie into inteleon. Why? Freeze-d- nvm Glalie was defeated by snipe shot.
Inteleon and quagsire have a water type throwdown but it seems to be going nowhere. Quagsires water absorb does kick in against snipe shot though. Tearful look seems to bee a problem, but quag eventually outlasts inteleon.
All the tearful looks eventually took its toll on quag so I swapped Perserker in her place when corviknight came out, and 2 screeches and 2 iron heads later, the giant metal raven is down.
Luckily the last Mon is pincurchin. And I have 2 ground types (I picked quag as it was healthier)
Pincurchin going fore curse failed to stop quag from deleting it.
I think I'm gonna wrap up here. I'll probably swap boltund back in next time for 1 last adventure-im not sure how long boltund can survive this late in the game.
It was a nuzlocke where I could only get pokemon from tera raids, I abandoned it because I didn't feel like playing it anymore.

Today was a turning point for me.
After grinding my team to be able to take on sadas roaring moon (via Chansey springboard), I feel like my current squad is the perfect team so far. (They worked together to beat Arven). Probably becuz I've used most of them often, I feel less incentivised to catch stuff (tho I did here and there, including accidentally catching a spidops and forgetting species clause as I had caught it's pre Evo early on in my run, so I released it).
Despite this, they still have shortcomings, like glalies freeze dry isn't able to OHKO titan dozo,but the fact I'm able to use glalie makes me happy.
Next up on the chopping block will be either Eri or school lessons (which I want to complete before going into area zero).
“Momma, why does everyone hate us?”
“Cause, they’re all selfish beings.”
Paw was still fuming about the fact that his mom said that humans were selfish. One day, a kind man helped him but before the strange human could meet momma they left.
So, he was stuck with his cousins Pine and Beetle, his sister Fang, and his weird looking brother named Trick. Soon, Paw was the playing with his own tail and illusions to keep himself occupied.
Occasionally a Snow White Vulpix and a weird colored fiery Ninetails came by but they stopped shortly after the man saved him.
Maybe that guy did something…should I tell the alpha one? No, I’m already in trouble. Best not dis-
His thoughts were interrupted by Pine and Beetle play fighting so roughly that they collided with Paw who tumbled into Trick who jumped and bumped into Fang who proceeded to nip at the poor spiteful fox.
She then growled at Beetle who shrugged it off and went hunting for some berries to bring back to the pack.
But he was stopped by a loud bark of the alpha one. “Foolish Beetle causes collisions and then wanders off?! Ludicrous…”
“But Momma we want to explore!”
“No! Not with all those humans!”
Paw snarled slightly and cooked up a plan in his little brain to sneak out with them so they could find some berries, the foxes, and maybe that kind human.
—-later that night in a different point of view—-
Rei was hoping to find a rare flower that only grew in the Icelands for her. He hoped she would like it, since it was gonna be a special gift. Or as Volo joked about “a gift from the heart” but Rei paid no attention to him.
All of the sudden, he heard a strange yipping noise and saw a faint red glow. Being the man he is, Rei went to investigate to see some zoruas trying to scare off an alpha Glalie.
He quickly sent out an Infernape who ambushed the alpha. They roared in pain as the zoruas ran to the Galaxy team member in fear.
—-back to Paw—-
Maybe this man knew that other kind man, so he decided to get everyone to follow the guy so they could maybe see that guy again.
Shortly, a lot of pups followed them and even a senior Zoroark warrior got curious.
They stopped eventually at a weird settlement and Fang dashed into there, jumped in thé biggest den, and soon screams were heard. The man and everyone else dashed to collect her as she ran towards a nearby house.
“This little one tried to kill Kamado so I think you’d like her.”
The guy had introduced the same man to Fang who simply called her Kit. Paw because Envy, Beetle became Fluff, Trick became Loki, and Pine became Frost. Soon the guy that was nearly murdered came and surprisingly, the humans protected them all.
Envy was touched and decided that humans and zoroarks could live in peace. Well, at least he thought that until the guy met up with the pack who was understandably mad. Somehow he calmed them and was able to make peace.
And that “Rei” guy successfully gave that girl her flower that she wanted. She thanked him and Loki cried tears of pure joy as they saw some weird hair colored man forcing a guy with…Christmas tree hair to kill somebody.
But Envy was focusing on the fact that the Ninetales now named Mononoke and the Vulpix who evolved was named Spirit.
The guy with weird hair could be saved later. For now, it was time for stories.
Told y’a it was short! Also what the hell is this?

Me and Via went outside into the snow
We built some snowmons, and slid into the snow
While, Via was finishing up her snowmon, I made a snowball and threw it at her
"OWW!! Hey!!!" Via said
I started laughing
Then she threw a snowball back at me
“HEY!!" I said
She started chuckling
I tried to throw another one but it missed a and hit a Charmander wearing a scarf
I ran over to see if he was ok.
”Are you ok?" I asked the Charmander
“Yea" He got up
”I'm Charmander, but you can call me Char for short" He said
“Cool, I'm Dusk" I said
Then a Bulbasaur, a Squirtle wearing sunglasses [on top of his head], and an Eevee appeared
”Char, are you okay?" The Squirtle asked
”Yea" Charmander said
”Who's this" The Squirtle asked
"This is Dusk" Charmander said
”Hi" I said
”Cool, I'm Squirtle" Squirtle said
”Bulba, Bulba, Bulbasaur" Bulbasaur said
"This is Bulbasaur" Squirtle said
”Bulbasaur" Bulbasaur said
”And this is Eevee" Squirtle said
”Hello" Eevee said
Via came
"What happened? Who are they?" She asked
1 introduction later
”Ohhhh, now it makes sense" Via said
I looked at Charmander
”Hey, Char, why do you have a scarf if you're a fire type?" I asked
”Oh, this was my mother's scarf, she gave to my big brother Charmeleon, and then he gave it to me after my mother passed away" Charmander said
”Oh I'm sorry" I said
"It's ok" Charmander said
"Hey, do you guys want to be in a snowball fight/capture the flag game we're about to do?" I said
”Sure" They said
"Alright, Bulbasaur and Squirtle you'll be on Via's team" I said
"Bulbasaur" Bulbasaur said
"Sweet" Squirtle said
”And Eevee, and Charmander, you'll guys will be on my team" I said
”Cool" Charmander said
“Nice" Eevee said
"Alright the goal of the game is to get the other team's flag, If you capture the other team's flag, you need to plant it where your flag is and also must have your flag at your base for it to count. We have a 5 minute grace period, in that time you need to build a fort and gather some ammunition," I said
"Everyone got it?" I said
Everyone nodded
Finn jumped in front of us
”And I'll be bombing all you guys with snowballs" Finn said
”Oh yeah I forget to mention that" I said
”Hey Bulbasaur said he wanted to give a speech before we started" Charmander said
“Alright go ahead Bulbasaur" I said
Bulbasur made an ice podium "Bulba Buh Buh Bulba Bulbasaur Bulba Bulbasaur Buh Bulb Saur Bulb BULBA BULBASAUR BUH BUH BULBA BULBASAUR!!!!!" Bulbasaur said
We all shed a tear
"What an mathematical speech" Finn said
"3, 2, 1, GO!" I said
We all ran off
”Charmander, you make the snowballs" I said
"Yes sir," Charmander said, he started to make snowballs.
Eevee you help me make the snow fort" I said
"Alright" she said
5 minutes later
“GRACE PERIOD IS OVER" Finn shouted
In that time we had made a snow fort and we have a giant stockpile of snowballs
But so had Via's team
“Char you stay here and protect the base while be and Eevee will go rush ‘em”I said
”Ok, here's some snowballs"
Charmander gave us some snowballs.
Finn dropped some snowballs on us
Char had the most dropped on him, he looked like a snowmon
Me and Eevee started laughing
“Hahahahhahahaha"
“Alright don't you guys need somewhere to be?" Char said, shortly after his flame melted the snow
”Oh yeah" I said
Me and Eevee ducked underneath some snow covers.
”So, what's our plan of attack?" Eevee asked
"We spy on them for a bit, and then we get their flag, if they see us we attack" I said
”Good plan." She said
“I know." I said
We ran to side of their fort
We can hear them talking
”Squirtle can use water gun on the ground to make the floor ice so it'll be harder for them to come" Via asked
“Sure can do" Squirtle saidHe used water gun to make the floor more slippery.
”Woah" I said
I slipped and fell on the floor
"BULBASAUR" Bulbasaur said
”You heard a noise, where?" Via asked
”GO GO GO GO GO GO" Eevee pushed me to the other side
Bulbasaur showed Via where he heard the noise
Via saw me and Eevee's footprints
“We should be on high alert" Via said
”That was a close one" I said
”Yea" Eevee said
Me and Eevee went into their fort
I snuck in and grabbed their flag
”YES!!!" I whispered
”Alright let's go" Eevee said
We were about to leave but Squirtle saw us
”THEY GOT OUR FLAG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Squirtle shouted
Squirtle started to throw snowballs at us
We dodged themWe tried to get out of there, but Finn came in and dropped snowballs on us!!!
Finn started snickering
We got out of the snow, but the hard part came next: trying to cross the icy ground
Via, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle were right behind us
“Come on!!!" I saidWe carefully walked over the ground
"Squirtle tuck yourself in your shell to go over there, so you can get our flag back” Via said
”Alright" Squirtle said
He tucked himself in his shell and started to charge right at us
”Here!" I gave the flag to Eevee
”Grab on to my tail!!!" I said
”What?" She said
"JUST DO IT!!!" I said
Eevee grabbed my tail
Then I used Accelerock to make myself go really fast
"Let go of my tail when I say it" I said
Eevee nodded
”NOW!!!" I said
I spun around while Eevee let go of my tail, and I flung her across the ice
She then stopped when she went to her base and then she planted the flag
”WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!" I said
I ran over there
I high-fived Charmander and hugged Eevee
“YAY" We said
Squirtle and Bulbasur walked over here
”Good game" Squirtle said
"Bulba" Bulbasaur said
Via walked over to me
”What was that?" Via asked
"What?" I asked
”You know, "the hug""
“That was just a friendly hug, to congratulate her for winni--- Hey wait a sec, why do you care?" I asked
“I uh-- um uhm" Via said
I gasped
"You're JEALOUS, that I gave her a hug aren't you" I said, looking smug
“Wha---, n-n-no I'm not" Via said
“Yes you are" I said
"Not I'm not" Via said
“I walked away
“W-W-Where are you going?" Via asked
"To tell Eevee you're jealous of her" I said, with a smirk
”N-N-No don't" Via ran after me
”Hey Eevee, did you know that Via is jealo----" I said, pausing
Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, Eevee, and Finn, were lying on the floor unconscious, they each had darts on the back
“Hey Via, uhh I found something strange" I said
”Yeah Du------" She said
Via fell to floor unconscious too, and she also had a dart in her back
”Whaaa???" I said
Then I felt something hit me in the back
“OWWW" I said
I looked behind me, it was the same dart that had knocked my friends unconscious
"Huh? Why isn't this thing working" A voice I've never heard before said
“Who was that??" I asked
Then a couple more darts hit me in the back
Then a bunch of them hit me in the back
”What the????" I said
“It seems like he impervious to tranquilizer darts, I wonder if he impervious to other sleep-based attacks" The voice said again"
Alright, who's there???" I asked
A boy wearing an old-timey suit[and bow-tie] and reading glasses came out of the shadows
"WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH MY FRIENDS???" I growled
"GLALIE, GO!" He said, not answering my question
He sent out a Glalie
"USE BLIZZARD" He said
"Buh Bye" The Glalie said
He used Blizzard and it knocked me out
The last thing I saw was the boy
"Nighty-Night" He said
I went unconscious
This will be the last one for a while. I went a bit far with this but it was fun to make. Thank you all for the good response and support. I will be over at www.instagram.com/cg.draug/ doing some Zelda fan art and a mix of other things I like for a little while but I will be back with some Pokemons some time soon.
