I hope you all enjoy this episode! Be sure to let me know your teams/favorite Pokemon as we go along! šŸ˜„

@369destroyer

Connor being Gary-like but not just a Gary clone must have bee a hardline to balance on but I think you did it. The fact he is still willing to do tutorial stuff, even if passive aggressive and condescending, is a nice touch.

@shoboy1560

These designs are really cool. 
My current team is:
Hisscorch:Cynder
Birbushi:Tsuguku
Catrout:Percy

@InfamousTrainer

@KuroBlitz

The way I cried of joy when I heard Route 301 being namedropped! Also, JPR's voice acting as Russell was phenomenal!

@sthn8758

Team:
Naga the Hisscorch
Ken the Birbushi
Misty the Whiskeroo

Russell isnā€™t hard for being a Fighting type Gym Leader with Ken in hand. Hisscorch is undoubtedly a middle evolution that Iā€™d expect. Whiskeroo was adorable so one is going in my team, canā€™t wait for it to evolve it to Catrout. Marin is much harder then Russell since I have no grass or electric types. 

Overall another episode down and already fond of my team.

PokƩmon :
Kai the Hisscorch

Shromy the Shroomish

Whis the Whiskeroo


Journal entry/recap:After getting Kai I went to route one and found it aggressive Shroomish who kept on attacking people who came along the route, me and Kai were able to defeat him deciding to join the team. Russel wasnā€™t much of a challenge. I use Kai to weather down his PokĆ©mon, winning us the battle.(Kai also evolves) down the road to the next town. We meet a hyperactive Whiskeroo she was different from the others so I asked her if she wants to join this team and she said yes. Marin what is very easy with Shromy and that was it. (For now)
(Hey I want yā€™all versions your story put them in the comments, please)

@olivierdubreuil-gagnon2201

Continuing with the team, thenā€¦

Barkollar,
Birbushi,
Minimaul.

Loving these the most so far, so Iā€™m really hoping they all make the cut!

@derekcoffey7365

Another great episode has come and gone. I definitely cannot wait for the next one. One question though: Since this is the 2nd episode and we already have 2 gym badges, will the pacing be like how it is in the Kanto games? I think you can get the first and second gym badges pretty close together if I remember correctly so I was just curious if that was the inspiration for the pacing. Keep up the great work!

My team:

Barkollar
Birbushi
Whiskeroo

@BersealiaDreamheart

Minimaul? Looks like a weasel/cat version of Riolu. Itā€™s actually kinda cute in my opinion.
A pretty good challenge for a first gym leader battle. I just gotta get this little guy for my team.
(šŸ’•šŸ„° I think Iā€™m in loveā€¦)

@lilbrex8160

Hisscorch- Fire
Birbushi- Normal/Flying (Took out both 1st and 2nd gyms)
Pitterpest- Bug (Used as backup in 2nd gym)
Catrout- Water

@JPRPokeTrainer98

MINIMAUL GANG WHERE YOU AT

@Steamed_Ananab

Two gym badges already is crazy! My team after this episode: 
-Barkollar (The Floofster)
-Birbushi (Rookie)
-Minimaul (Beatbox)

I like how the routes are all in the 300 category, referencing the theme that japanese regions take in the mainline games ascending every 100, with hoenn taking routes from 101 onwards, and sinnoh taking routes from 201 onwards- just a really neat detail that wraps this all together
Theory: Since pupperoot's attack made the super effective sound effect against minimaul at 6:24, this may be hinting at pupperoot/barkollar evolving into a type that's strong against fighting- Flying would be too similar to jumpluff imo, so I'm thinking either psychic or fairy are more likely. Looking at barkollar's design, I'd say fairy is the best choice, so that's what I'm gonna place my bets on

@AnEnigmaOnYoutube

Current Team:

Barkollar šŸŒ±
Birbushi šŸ˜šŸŖ½
Catrout šŸ’§

Minimaul looks cool too, but it hasn't been catchable yet. I'm also assuming its evolution will be the Lucario of this region, which is definitely something I want on my team since Lucario is a PokƩmon I'd use on a Sinnoh playthrough.

@teefa85

Stats...Crimson ver. Barkollar(Cotton), Birbushi(Bubble), Squeakid (Dora), Pitterpest (Busbug), Whiskeroo (Goggli)
Bubble led the way through the first Gym and Cotton the second.

Okay, I LOVE the interaction between Conner and Caroline.  And just how sarcastic she is with his BS.
All the Starter Evos look super awesome.

@rayhayes7701

Current team:
Cynder now a Hisscorch
Moves: Pound, ember, bite, leer
New team update: Barabushi with wing attack, sand attack, and peck. Whiskeroo with bubble beam, scratch, and growl.
We level up both team members and beat the first gym with Barabushi. Then we catch Whiskeroo and level it up too. Hisscorch learns thunder fang and we get our second badge.
Whiskeroo is a favorite of mine.

@Cross-Cubone

My current team:

Gallopond who I named kelp, 

Minimaul who I named mighty,

And
Pitterpest who I will name when it evolves 

Canā€™t wait to see the rest of this series

@alicepow260

My faves from this episode were Whiskeroo and Catrout! My team is now: Sarsy the Pupperoot, Polka the Squeakid, Eepy the Pitterpest, and Kitty the Whiskeroo

@stuffingtonjfluffypantsiii

I'd love to see a battle between Gary and Connor but I don't think any region is big enough to hold those 2 egos

@StuffieHugger

Cedarā€™s team so far:

Fluffy the Barkollar
Fawkes the Birbushi
Aragog the pitterpest
Scabbers the squeakid
Lupin the minimaul
Hermione the catrout 

Love the series and the designs and might box some of them
