Damn but it's been a while since I've done this.

Three Pokemon for sale! Togetic at level twenty-eight, a female, cheerful, name of Beatrice. A Happiny at level twenty-seven, sweet but a little spoiled, female as well. Answers to Mary. And then an Altaria at thirty-six, a male, a little scattered. Name me your price and we'll haggle it out.

On the road again at last with hardly a care in sight. I'm the last you'll hear complaining about a life of traveling freely but lately I've had the feeling of turning a wheel over and over when it's not firm on the axle. Traveling and winning battles and having the money to continue doing so but where are we going after all. Once Pokemon are at the hundredth level can they really grow no stronger? It seems disheartening. I hope that spells out nothing about humans. I shudder to think I could look up and into the future and see a wall where an ever rising road could be.

I've languished these past weeks and only of my own failing. Come and gab and have me make a friend of you. Or a rival if you'd rather.

Damn, did you hit your head or somethin'? That seems oddly introspective of you.

...Walter, where the hell are you?

I want to be sure you're not typing this from the edge of a cliff somewhere.

If you see a wall where an ever-rising road could be, perhaps that's just a sign that you're not setting your gaze high enough to see over it.

[synchroswim]

dude you could just climb the wall



uh

assuming its not one of those funky ones here where you jump down and then you cant get back up because those are totally lame

Finding yourself retracing your steps along the road tends to happen long before you truly hit a wall, in my experience.

[But if that had not been the case, would he have been able to- No. Pondering that is meaning less now.]

But you can still use external sources to improve, just as a Pokémon can learn additional attacks from TMs or Move Tutors.

Who cares about levels or whatever?? That's not the end of crap and everyone knows it! You can always better yourself!!! Or your pokemon w/e

I'm not really good at metaphors so I'm not sure if I'm doing this right but it sounds sorta like youre saying there's just that one road? Dude no way there's always other shit to do!!

we should totally meet up sometime I'm better with this sorta thing in person

strength is in the eye of the beholder

when you get right down to it a lot of really good battling has to do with strategy and shit

even if a pokemon hits 100 that doesn't mean they can't get smarter and learn

or get in shape or whatever

and humans dont even have levels



i wouldnt worry about it

[Sorry about the keysmash, Walter.]

I'd argue they can still grow, just not in the same way as before. You can have a strong Pokémon that still fails in a fight due to inexperience or a lack of mental maturity. Even the sharpest sword is useless in the wrong hands.

Now, that doesn't mean you can't hit a brick wall eventually. Right now, this place doesn't offer much to do once you get both sets of badges beyond tourism and rematches. Still, I've seen people get by. Just depends on how goal-oriented you are, I'd say.
