When we last left our honey of a heroine, she was hanging around the Serenity Isle Poke Mart waiting for the next Democracy voting in “1,” whatever that means, so she could buy five Poke Balls and a Potion.

Well, now the Democracy voting is “5,” which probably means fifty seconds or something. So at least she’s getting closer.

That’s seconds, right? Not minutes? Because it would be awful if it was minutes.

She starts early in Anarchy. After a few false starts in which she almost blows all her money on Poke Balls again, she buys two. Then one more, then one more, then two more, then two more… then one more, then one more, then two more.

So, in small increments, she DOES blow all her money on Poke Balls again. And this is why Democracy was made. She then tries to buy Great Balls, but of course she doesn’t have enough money.

Honey’s next stop is the Lighthouse Challenge, sponsored by yours truly (Bill). Okay, not canonically, but who else lives in a lighthouse and owns hundreds of Eevees?

Gosh, someone’s confident.

Don’t you mean the Ground type will defend you?

(His name is Archaeologist Indiana, by the way. Sadly we missed the chance to send our snake after him.)

After a bunch of stair-climbing failures, we reach the third player:

Since the first two challengers corresponded to the first two gyms (Electric-type Greasemonkey and Ground-type Archaeologist), I’m going to hazard a guess that the next gym will be Water-type.

Her trainer class is Sunbather, by the way, although she just looks like a typical female Swimmer. Nothing really worth screenshotting there.



Grass-type Picknicker. So THAT’S what the she-Luigis are supposed to be.

After defeating her, our only conscious Pokemon is Hugbug at a measely five HP. And we’re only halfway up the tower. Things are not looking good for our first Eevee attempt.



This one’s a Cooltrainer, which makes a nice pun.

Honey, sensing how doomed she is, tries to flee but fails. She can’t switch her Pokemon either, because there’s nothing to switch to. She looks in her bag for items, but there’s really nothing she can use to turn the tide here.

So the first turn, the enemy Pokemon just screech at each other. Literally. Both Pokemon use Screech on each other.

What is up with Sneasel’s pose, anyway? It looks like it’s trying to spin like a top.

Sneasel takes anti-cancer measures and Taunts Hugbug into not screeching at it anymore.

Before Hugbug can use Rollout, Sneasel uses Quick Attack and KO’s it, which technically it could’ve done on the first turn… so maybe those ‘anti-cancer measures’ were actually more cancerous than you’d think.

Well, at least we have more money now.

To be continued…
