Don't Trust Old People

"I've got some hard stones for sale," the old man said. "You can have one for 1,000 or 150,000 Pokedollars."

"Why would I want one for 150,000, that's gotta be a joke, right? It's actually something else, there's no way it's actually a hard stone," I said, agreeing on the 150,000 Pokedollar one. 

The old man dug though his pocket and handed over the completely ordinary yet expensive as hell hard stone. 

"What the fuck? This is a hard stone," I said, looking at it.

"That's what you agreed to purchase," he replied. 

"Then gimme the other one!" I yelled, still believing that this was a load of shit.

"That'll be 1,000."

Another hard stone. If the old man says it's a hard stone, it really is. Do not doubt the elders. 

Swampert vs. Aerodactyl

Battle against Steven Stone's Aerodactyl with my Swampert felt like it should have been quick and easy. A simple surf could have knocked it out. However, I couldn't get past the barrier called 'Swampert was frozen solid!'

Alright, just frozen. I can fix this. I used an ice heal and thawed my starter out.

Another ice fang, and there it was; 'Swampert was frozen solid!'

"Alright, what even." I sighed, and used another ice heal. My water Pokemon was thawed out once more, but not for long. 'Swampert was frozen solid!'

"Oh my fucking God, Steven Stone, cut it out!" 

Another ice heal. Another thawed out Pokemon.

'Swampert was frozen solid!'

"Holy fucking shit."

Swampert was frozen a total of seven times, and was unable to land a single hit until ice fang finally didn't freeze it.

Vs. Rianna, Part one

"I swear to God if your Umbreon has moonlight I'm gonna shit a house," my dear friend said during our battle, and my defensive wall of an Umbreon was still standing after numerous hits. However, his health was getting rather low.

Smirking, I yelled out a simple move; "Moonlight." Umbreon's rings glowed and sparkled, his health going back up quite a bit. 

"Oh my God."

Part Two

"Alright, let's do my three Rayquaza against your three Giratina!" Rianna begged. We agreed to do this a while ago, but never actually did it.

"Fine, but no mega evolving since my Giratina can't do that," I said, getting my trio prepared. 

It was a triple battle, her shiny Rayquaza in the middle as well as my shiny Giratina (aesthetic). 

And what happened next? Suddenly there was a shiny mega Rayquaza on the field. 

"Asshole! I told you no mega evolving!" I yelled, already nervous for my three babies out on the field. 

Rianna just laughed and targeted my shiny Giratina, being knocked out after two hits in a row. My two remaining Giratina attacked the mega, knocking that out. Back to two vs. two, but I was still nervous considering Rayquaza was faster than Giratina. 

Soon, it became one on one. Luckily, my remaining Pokemon had a life orb and managed to beat the last one with just barely enough health left.

"What the fuCK," the loser yelled. "I'm not quitting until I beat you!"

Final Part 

Final battle, and I decided to go easy on this poor soul. I took a bunch of level one Pokemon and decided to let her win. 

"Shit! I forgot my three other Pokemon!" She whined.

"Do you really think you need all three to beat me?" I sighed. 

"True, true," Rianna agreed. She had sent out her Carbink, Dragonair, and Klefeki. 

If you expected her to win, then I'd hate to disappoint you. 

"Carbink only knew Ancient Power!" 

"What do you mean it only knew Ancient Power?? That only has 5 PP!"

"I know! It's only a baby!" 

I sighed and had Goomy continue to use bubble, which slowly but eventually knocked the rock/fairy type out. 

"I quit."

---

I decided to skip to this part instead of going in order since this by far has been my most memorable game, filled with idiotic moments and frustrating battles. And before you ask, yes, I really did spend 150,000+ Pokedollars on hard stones. (Damn that old man)
