[With Rocket Training done and over with, it's time for Rude to start his own journey. He's a bit tired of the Goldenrod BGM and admittedly slightly curious about what else is in store for him out there in the Pokemon world. But most importantly, he's looking for adventure and action, and hanging around in one town isn't going to cut it.

Picking a destination wasn't hard; just start where everyone else was starting. Easier prey and he doesn't have to fudge any more details about the place to everyone who's been asking about his journey.]

I'm going to New Bark Town. Anyone interested?

What are some good Pokemon to capture?

For Battling purposes.

Most are good for battling. You need to decide what kind of battling experience you want, from there it's easy to recommend Pokemon. Otherwise, whatever you can catch and train is good for battling.

[strongestoftheturks]

[What kind of battling experience? Rude thought carefully about his current team and what he's used to, before he replies to the helpful man.]

Fast and hard.

[starspangledavenger]

[Steve gives this some thought, still a tad vague, but he can work with it]

Are you looking for a particular type? Like fighting, water, electricity, flying, so on and so forth?

Besides that, some fast but strong Pokemon are Aerodactyl, Weavile, Tauros, and Infernape. If you want strong but fast, try Garchomp, Staraptor, and Scyther.

[Steve has done a lot of studying to figure out Pokemon he might want... that and a quick check of the Dex helped]

[rocketralph]

GOOD LUCK


_{[All caps is just easier to see okay]}

[strongestoftheturks]

[Rude's a bit confused about the all caps, he can see both small and capital letters well enough, but he just chalks it down to Ralph's friendliness and loud nature.]

Thanks. You sticking around Goldenrod?

[rocketralph]

YUP. GOT WORK.

[aburame]

It depends. There are various battle strategies. A "good" Pokemon to capture would be one that complements the rest of your team and your intended approach.

[strongestoftheturks]

I got some suggestions from someone. Thinking of getting a Starly to round up the team.

[aburame]

I have not used one before, but its evolution lends itself to powerful physical attacks.

[So, birds aren't quite Shino's forte. But he's been studying up on them for his upcoming gym challenge with Falkner. Always pays to know your opponent.]

[ortion]

What could you possibly need to go to New Bark Town for? There is nothing useful there.

[strongestoftheturks]

Thought I'd see it for myself.

Easier targets too.

[ortion]

I'm willing to give you the second point, though I believe the higher-ups would prefer higher-leveled Pokemon.

As for the first point, again, I doubt there is much to see. You would be better off beginning in a larger town such as Violet.

[usedshooshpap]

MY A TEAM CONSISTS OF AN AERODACTYL, ESPEON, HAXORUS, MIGHTYENA, CROBAT, AND GROWLITHE.
I USED THEM FOR THE MAJORITY OF MY BATTLES.
THEN AGAIN NEARLY ALL OF MINE ARE AT THE MAX LEVEL.
ANY BEAST CAN BE USEFUL, IF YOU USE THEM CORRECTLY.

[strongestoftheturks]

Magikarp?

[Yes, he's been introduced to them. Not very impressed by flail and tackle.]

[papshooshing]

DON'T GET SMART WITH ME.
EVERYONE KNOWS THAT MAGIKARP HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THE FEW THAT YOU JUST WANT TO SMASH YOUR HEAD AGAINST A HARD SURFACE AGAINST WHILE RAISING.
GYARADOS ISN'T HALF BAD WHEN YOU FINALLY EVOLVE MAGIKARP, THOUGH.
YOU JUST HAVE TO NOT PIT IT AGAINST AN ELECTRIC TYPE.
FLYING AND WATER? YEAH, THAT'S NOT THE BEST TYPE COMBINATION THERE.

And here I thought you'd gone back home. The network's been too quiet.

Good to see you're still around, Reno.

To make it seem as if you didn't arrive in Goldenrod. Smart.

[strongestoftheturks]

You're the first to guess right.

Smart.

[TR filter]

[explosivecombat]

Do tell me if there's anything of particular interest out there; I've personally never been.

Although I do have to question the reason - simply time for a change of scenery, or is there something drawing you out that way?

Re: [TR filter]

[strongestoftheturks]

Yes sir.

Change of scenery.

Kids are easier to steal from.

[when_turks_fly]

That depends on what you're looking for! Stylistically speaking, of course. It also depends on if you're looking for a specific type of Pokemon. Do you have any preferences?

[strongestoftheturks]

I'm thinking Starly and Gible.
