Exactly. But we don't have Laura's diary, now do we? For all we know, her diary is filled with bitterness and anger about their family's whole situation.

Kick the crap out of Fern? Just made it out of Tanzan mountain, got a snapshot for MechsftwStan Try to find the area that looks like this, then hop through with a Tauros. At the far south end will be a cave ntrance, this is the way back to Tanzan Mountain and through that the Railnet then through that Reborn.

The Anna/Noel one and Laura are almost right, but Anna/Noel get captured if you Stop Sirius, and Laura gets captured if you stop Sigmund . I know Anna/Noel are right as I just did it last night. You remain downstairs, and Sirius says he got informed (I don't see how, but he does) that Sigmund captured two of escapees, and then proceeds to leave. I though the Saphiria one had to remain downstairs? I remember Saphira getting This happened in my second run. ATM I'm on my 3rd.

You could trade with someone for a shiny Ditto? Just post your file under Team Showcase found here http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=11523

Which is also based on whether you decided to save Heather from Sigmund in Yuyeru Building, or ignore her and go after Sirius.

Maybe Laura will crack too and get even more ballistic than Saphira. It's the quiet ones that always flip out the worst. Look at all the mass shootings America has had.

Update #16 Following my victory, we rush outside and see the Pokemart has teleported away. We also see Bennett fall into the clutches of El. Poor Serra. Anywho, I decided to go back and get another Breloom. I have named it PestilenceJr, It's got an Adamant Nature, 20+ most IVs, and is fully EV trained. Did a few bouts with the Grand Hall trainers, got PestilenceJr up to scratch. Then we proceeded to bring Anna her medicine. Am I a heartless bastard? No, I am Penthus, bringer and comrade of Suffering and Grievance. *A moment of silence for Hemlock, my Poison comrade, who apparently died on a ship in another continent without explanation* Once Anna feels better, she decides it's time me and Noel duke it out. But first a brief interruption from your local Dragonite. *Insert screams of Meteors getting wasted by Dragonite* Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, I'm tasked with defending the orphans and an E4 member. Da fuq? Yup. Cue the destruction of the orderlies. Bitch, please. This is your third trial. I come at your like a wrecking ball. Just ask Charlotte. Next up is Sirius Actually an tough fight, but I managed. Opened with Arcanine against Chandlure. Wrecked it with a Crunch. Swapped Wreckage in while Sirius was healing, which demolished Chandlure next turn with Razor Shell. I don't remember this fight. I think I'm going to go back to shorter updates. Pretty sure there was a M.Manectric that pissed me off, as well as a Seviper and other garbage. I believe Crime saved by ass big time with Sucker Punch. Crime for MVP!! Somehow Sigmund defeated the E4 member Laura (seriously, how), and manages to escape with the children through a window or something. Even though it's built into a mountain. Saphira and I decide to go charge the Meteor's base, to which I happily follow. Got through quite a bit of it, and found the children, but couldn't save them. Anna did inform me that Saphira is the Hollow Lady, which I was unaware of before. Ouch. :feelsgn: Moving on, we meet Simon, who just lost Tara. Boohoo. Next time don't try to justify other peoples misery with your own salvation, you worm. Further up we meet Siggy, ZEL, Sirius, and PULSE Abra...which promptly shoves us under the Meteor base in into the lair of.... This thing. Which Mega evolves. Pfff. Go Crime! Use Counter! It's a OHKO! Gargantuan Mega Steelix has fainted! How many exclamation points are legal in a battle?!?! #SaveThePrincess Moving on to PULSE Abra This one was a lot trickier without Hyper Beam saving my ass. But I managed with MVP Crime's double Sucker Punch, and Focus Sashed PestilenceJr's double Mach Punch. I don't get how else you're supposed to beat this fight. Are you expecting the player to carry multiple Sturdy pokemon for this? With PULSE Abra defeated, Lin arrives, showcasing her intimidation and jogging foggy memories awake. Princess gets annihilated. Everyone weeps. Anna goes bonkers. Noel goes back to fight me. Noel had a fun team. Not a good team. I think Snorlax needs a place here over Lickilicky. Or go full evil with Blssey. Mega Lopunny over Mega Audino. Mega Khanaskhan is probably too powerful, especially with Flinchinno already on the team. PestilenceJr vs Flinchinno - Technician and Black Belt and STAB and SE Mach Punch. Good riddance. Biggest threat terminated in one hit. Plight vs Staraptor - Plight tanked a Brave Bird, retaliated with a Spark. This lead into a Spark - Ultra Potion fight, during which I paralyzed Staraptor. Got 2 Sparks of in succession for a KO. PestilenceJr vs Lickilicky - See Flinchinno, but imagine Force Palm. Both your mind and Lickilicky's are blown. Wreckage vs Porygon-Z - Died to critical hit Psychic. I wonder if it could have taken a non-crit Psychic? Plight vs Poygon-Z - Died to Tri-Attack. Speedy little bastard. Crime vs Porygon-Z - Tanked a Tri-Attack, but got paralyzed. Still hit Rock Tomb. Next turn survived Psychic with 3 HP, and was paralyzed. Went with Sucker Punch, then died to Psychic. 0-3 Porygon-Z overwhelming. PestilenceJr vs Porygon-Z - Mach Punch KO. Steak broken, momentum resuscitated. PestilenceJr vs M.Audino - Force Palm crits, knocks it down to half health. Die to Dazzling Gleam. Totally forgot it's a part Fairy. Damn. Trial vs M.Audino - Tanked a Dazzling Gleam, killed it with Heavy Slam. That's how we do it. Woe vs Clefable - Field boosted Flamethrower did decent damage. As did Clefable's Hidden Power. Lost quite a bit of that initial hurt from Field+Leftovers heal. Did another Flamethrower. Got lucky when it only did Moonblast. 25 HP left. Another Flamethrower still doesn't kill it, Woe dies to another HP. Trial vs Clefable - Tanked a HP, crushed it with Heavy Slam. The ground shook at the might of Trial. The spoils of the battle And with the Standard badge, it's time for a Standard departure from this team. Who will it be? Let's present the candidates. The Selection... The Release... Well, guess I need another replacement. With Radomus up soon, and Fern even sooner, let's see what I can find.

Could be Kricketune too. Pretty much anything that learns sing. So if this is all from the Reborn servers, was Aya Cain's real sister? Did Amaria get amnesia? Were Tania and Amaria a couple? What was the real Sigmund's deal? Are Solaris, Taka, Sirius and Lin based on real people too?

You're going to need to take a Tauros into the forrest slightly south of Vanhalen Castle. You should recognize it from the time you exited it after going through Tanzan Mountain.

Make sure you back this one up frequently. I don't want to lose Tesla too! Also - yay! I got a starter named after me =D May it treat you well.

Penthus and his RainbowGen team will try to carry on your legacy mario. Although it would be great if you took up Commander's offer.

I would suggest using Numel on Skuntank. Skrelp is pretty easy to kill with Meowstic. Get Luxio up to 30 to get Luxray - that stat boost will be important. Otherwise I think you'll do fine.

We also need to know more about Hardy and the E4.

You don't need to push the box anywhere in particular. The box is just in your way.

Update #15 With Aya defeated, the protagonist Penthus rushes to the aid of Cain, to rescue the poor orphans. Ok not really. Actually I decided to do a little team restructuring with the loss of Congress so fresh. Damn RNG. Studied and looked through my options for a G5 replacement, and the best one I found was Emboar. He's a tanky little bastard, and has nice coverage with Heat Crash, Heavy Slam (egg move, ty Tepig event), and Hammer Arm. But of course that would leave me with 4 fire members, and this is not a monorun. This is a Rainbow run. With complete bias I opted to drop Misery and try out what G6 had to offer. After a long (seriously this took me 20 minutes to decide) soul search between Barbacle and Malamar, our new team was built. Presenting Trial the Emboar and Wreckage the Barbacle! Binicle was really, really tough to find actually. All I found on Apophyll Beach were Krabby, and the training grounds were plagued with Geodude and Shuckle. I ended up getting one in the training grounds, but almost didn't because I found a shiny geodude (which, btw, had a totally different position compared to regular). But it self-destructed first turn and that never happened. Also ended up breeding that Binacle (had very bad IVs and Modest nature). Then trained them both up, and I present you the ransacking of Yuyeru Building. Ya I opted to fight Siggy here. I went with Sirius in my 2nd run, and I wanted to do Siggy again this one. Wreckage and Nidoking vs Luxray and Raichu - Needed the xp, so immediately switched Wreckage out for Disorder. Well timed too, as my side ignored both Discharges, meaning Siggy attacked himself. Haw-haw. Nidoking Shadow Balled Luxray. Disorder and Nidoking vs Luxray and Raichu - Luxray and Raichu both attacked Nidoking, but Nidoking goes with Sludge Wave, hitting everyone for meh damage. I go with EQ and completely clear the field. Penthus 3 - World 0 Disorder and Gengar vs Electivire and Lanturn - Swapped Disorder out to Trial so Disorder didn't get swamped by Lanturn, and I would lose no one important (Trial was lv 28 at this time). Just in time too as Lanturn went with Hydro Pump and KO'ed Trial. Electivire moved before that though, and went after Gengar with Thunderbolt, but didn't hurt it too much. Gengar used Thunderbolt on Electivire and triggered it's Motor Drive, Damn do I hate Cain. Crime and Gengar vs Electivire and Lanturn - Crime sets up the scene with Sucker Punch on Lanturn. Eletivire goes after Crime with Thunderbolt, doing moderate damage. Gengar goes after Lanturn (thank you!!!) with Shadow Ball, killing Lanturn before it can touch Crime. Phew. Crime and Gengar vs Electivire and Eeltross - Crime goes after Electivire with Sucker Punch, while Electivire retaliates with another Thunderbolt. Gengar Shadow Balls Electivire, KOing it, and Eeltross KOs Crime with Thunderbolt. Disorder and Gengar vs Rotom-Mow and Eeltross - Things are getting sketchy now, but we're doing alright. Gengar goes after Eeltross with a Thunderbolt. Mowtom kills Disorder with a Leaf Storm, and restores itself with a White Herb. Eeltross kills Gengar with a Thunderbolt. Woe and Venomoth vs Mowtom and Eeltross - Almost there. Woe critically wounds Mowtom with a Fire Fang. Venomoth kills Eeltross with Psychic. Mowtom attacks with Discharge, doing decent damage to Woe and Venomoth. Next turn it's dead and Siggy is defeated. Shuttled the orphans through the railnet, met Laura, defeated the evils of Chrysolia Forrest, and got myself an Exp. Share for training. I never found that Exp. Share anywhere in the area Techie Jonathan is looking. I plan to go back with an Itemfinder. Anyways, did more training, got Wreckage up to 46 and Trial up to 36. Decided to go through the trainers at Serra's gym and get XP. Then the Jr. Leader challenged me, and all hell broke loose. Wreckage vs Larvesta - Larvesta struck first with a Bug Bite, while Wreckage got off a Shell Smash. Wiped the floor with it next turn with Razor Shell. Wreckage vs Heracross - Got a razor shell off, but Heracross survived and killed me with Close Combat. Woe vs Heracross - While Bennett was healing, I was Flamethrowering, hoping for a reflected bounce. Instead I wasted his potions and critical hit him. Plight vs Scyther - Scyther tries to set up with Swords Dance, but Plight will have none of it and paralyzes him with a Spark. It's dead next turn from another. Plight vs Butterfree - I mean, I know Butterfree is pretty decent, but why not something less nooby like a Shedninja or a Wormadam? Regardless, I go with Spark, it goes with Giga Drain, I kill it with Spark. Meh. Plight vs Vivillon - Died to Vivillion's boosted Signal Beam. Disorder vs Vivillon - Even boosted Signal Beam was only able to drop Disorder to 55%, to which I went with Lava Plume, which came close to killing it, but Disorder took another Signal Beam and roasted Vivillon. Disorder vs Venomoth - Died to Psychic. Woe vs Venomoth - Got hit with Psychic, but survived, and reflected a Flamethrower for massive roasting power. Not a fan of Bennett. Well, I healed up, realized I was still too weak, and skipped computer to Sunday to get some easy double battles xp with Trial holding Exp. Share. Took awhile, but damn Heat Crash and Heavy Slam are phenomenal. With everyone all leveled and evolved, it's on to Serra Nevada Disorder vs M.Abomasnow - I got tired of the hax after my third try, so I just opened with EQ, almost killed M.Abamasnow from shatter damage. Wreckage vs M.Abomasnow - While Serra heals up, Wreckage opens shop with a Shell Smash. Kills M.Abomasnow with Cross Chop next turn. Wreckage vs Mamoswine - Wreckage wrecks with Razor Shell. Wreckage vs Glaceon - I figured this would be an easy sweep, but Snow Cloak and whatever evasive bullshit it had made me miss my Cross Chop. Took serious damage from a Frost Breath. That turn hail ended, and Cross Chop hit, killing Glaceon. Wreckage vs Cloyster - I figured I was safe, but this prick survived my Cross Chop, killing me with Icicle Spear. Sob. Plight vs Cloyster - Went with Spark, hoping for a kill, but Serra healed it first, so I only knocked it down to half health. Went with Charge next turn while Serra healed again, and next Spark knocked it down to 20%. As I was faster, another Spark killed it. Trial vs Vanilluxe - This is its time to shine. While Vanilluxe tries to Frost Breath me, Emboar hammers out the hurt with Heat Crash, triggering Vanilluxe's Weak Armor. I take another Frost Breath and crush it next turn with Heat Crash. Trial vs Froslass - Froslass goes mass offensive with Shadow Ball, taking out a huge chuck of my life. Then, Trial misses his Heat Crash. Froslass goes with Frost Breath though, and gives me just a little leeway to Heat Crash it into submission. Serra is harsh in Reborn, but Hardcore did a great job of putting her at damn tough levels. The spoils of the battle I'm really hating this part of the run, but it's the only way this thing keeps fresh. Someones about to go. Here's our candidates. The Selection... The Release... Shame I'm losing her, but I guess it's time for someone to return. Hopefully it's able to do something against Noel.

A better mystery - What is T3RR4? Is Radomus a Meteor agent?

It's a Fennekin event. You need to use Charge Beam or Discharge on the Electrode to restore the field from Short-Circuit field to Factory Field. Then you talk to the PC and get a Fennekin.

Nvrmd, it's only as a TM. which we don't have yet. I remember it learning that in D/P, and having it used on me by Aaron. Which is also odd, as Drapion was not a bug type. GF E4 are so stupid sometimes. D/P stands out as one of those, with R/B/Y as the 2nd oddest.

Could just catch a new Makuhita? You're not that far ahead in levels.

I want to see that move with Donald Trump's face. Also, I think it would be humorous if the Heart of Reborn was Obsidia or the department store. Also, maybe the Penthouse is repeatable massage/haircuts? And mega stone clerks who sell each for 999,999.

Braxien - A good pokemon. Bold isn't the best nature, but it's helpful. Magician is better than Blaze, so that's good. Drop Scratch for Light Screen ASAP. Psychic and Flamethrower when you get to that level will be your main attack moves, Hariyama - A fantastic pokemon. Mild is a hinderance, as it lowers defense and doesn't help Hariyama's offense. Guts/Sheer Force/Thick Fat all good abilities, but Sheer Force has more potential in general. The other abilities are great against specific situations (Guts Corey, Thick Fat Blake/Charlotte). Drop Vital Throw for Knock Off ASAP. Rest of the moves are good. May eventually want to replace Fake Out. Luxio - A great pokemon. Quiet and Intimidate are fine, although Quiet does lessen Luxray's impact as it's already borderline slow. Drop Bite for Crunch ASAP, rest are fine. Linoone - Slave. Nuff said. Numel - A finicky pokemon. Has ups, has downs. I still use one because its got good coverage...if it survives.Simple turns into Solid Rock, which is one of the main ways Camerupt survives. Quirky is vanilla. Lava Plume and Earth Power for Flame Burst and Magnitude when able. Do not replace with EQ as EQ will handle physical and Earth Power will handle special. Yawn is a good 4th move to help support your team. Sewaddle - Never used it. So no commentary on this. Overall I like the team. It just needs the levels and evolutions.

@JP - I found Arcanine to be a fantastic pokemon for Shade. If you can train growlithe up to 39 for Crunch, and manage to mine a Fire Stone from the glowing rocks, it will beat almost everything Shade throws at you. Fire Fang and Flamethrower will handle Trevant and Doublade. Chandlure will likely wreck it, so you're going to want a bulky/Sturdy rock or ground type (Sturdy Golem/Sudowoodo) or speedy Water/Ground/Rock/Dark move user (many were listed in the previous posts). @Monochrome - I realized Close Combat wouldn't after I posted, and I edited it while you were making your post. I think I gave a decent strategy regarding Heracross, especially as it has nothing on any other pokemon on Ciel's team. @Anime - Good work! I never tried a Trick Room team before, both my previous runs I just got the Sneasel and wrecked with Icicle Crash.

*claps* You went through this really quick. I'm impressed. You started right around the same time as me, but I've only made it through Aya. Bravo!

Update #14 I'm really pissed right now. You'll see why at the end. Anyways once Solaris was down, we moved on to Byxbysion Wasteland. But before we could enter, the assworm Cain decided to welch on his promise to open the damn gate, and force me into yet another stupid battle. Damn him. This fight took me about 10 tries because of bad rolls. Once again, damn that Nidoking. Misery vs Venomoth - Flamethrower roasted it in one hit. Plight vs Samurott - I open with Charge, and get met with Razor Shell. Luckily it wasn't a critical this time. Followed through with a OHKO Spark. No potion battles required. Disorder vs Nidoking - I survive a Sludge Wave and manage to get it down to about 35% with an Earth Power. But it follows up with an EQ and down goes Disorder. Woe vs Nidoking - Outspeeds and uses Retaliate, knocking Nidoking out. Yay. Plight vs Muk - Got off a Spark, but only took it down to 60%, and died to a Sludge Wave or Bomb. Doesn't matter. Congress vs Muk - Since Muk is now weakened, I was able to get a Dragon Dance off and Crunch it to death. Congress vs Gengar - Fires a Shadow Ball at me...but MISSES! Yay, on with the killing spree with Congress. Crunch crunch, munch munch, Gengar was delicious. Congress vs Weezing - With 3 attack boosts under my belt, you would think this would be enough to KO Weezing, but it manages to survive with 5% left and kills me. Misery vs Weezing - Flamethrower spam until the Choc Ice Cream fight is over. I hate Cain. I really, really do. Through the Byxbysion Wasteland to Aya's shack we go.I heal up and prep up for Fern, and made a great call of putting Woe in the starting position. Fern is pathetic as always. Woe vs Ferrothorn - Flamethrower OHKO. Next. Congress vs Krookodile - Intimidate could have gone bad here, but Congress is a badass and HJK OHKO. Moxie clears the reduction. Congress vs Scizor - To make sure I would wreck the rest of his team, I used a Dragon Dance here. Scizor goes with Wing Attack, which knocks me down to 24 HP. Yikes. But Scizor goes down in one HJK. 2 attack boosts now. Congress vs M.Sceptile - I was so scared I was going to get outsped, but I got the first blow and took it's head clean off. 3 attack boosts now. Congress vs Serperior - HJK. 4 boosts. Congress vs Roserade - At this point I overleveled to 46, and got nervous about this next turn, but Congress followed through and wiped Roserade out with a HJK, I love Congress. I still hate Fern and Cain. Healed up, dropped Congress to 45, moved the team around. Off we go. I already knew Aya's team hadn't changed that much. But they were still annoying. Woe and Plight vs Tentacool and Nidoqueen - Tentacool strikes first (is it really that fast?) with a Muddy Water, which Woe avoids, but Plight doesn't. Woe hits Tentacool with Crunch while Plight follows up with Spark. Nidoqueen goes with Sludge Wave, but misses both Woe and Plight. Woe and Plight vs Dragalage and Nidoqueen - Woe gets a Crunch off against Dragalage, while Plight opts for Charge (to survive their bs and get a boosted Spark off next turn). Nidoqueen Earth Powers against Woe, severely weakening it, and Dragalage goes with Sludge Wave, killing Woe and bringing Plight into the red zone. Disorder and Plight vs Dragalage and Nidoqueen - Plight gets boosted Spark off, killing Dragalage and pretty much Aya's only hope of salvation. Nidoqueen hits both Disorder and Plight with Sludge wave, killing plight. Disorder nails Nidoqueen with an Earth Power, bringing it into the red. Disorder and Congress vs Drapion and Nidoqueen - Aya heals Nidoqueen back up, while Congress gets a Dragon Dance going. Drapion goes after Congress with a Cross Poison, while Disorder goes after Nidoqueen with another Earth Power, bringing it back down to about 35%. Next turn Congress HJK's Drapion into submission, Nidoqueen goes for Sludge Wave, which puts Disorder out of order. Crime and Congress vs Gengar and Nidoqueen - Used Congress to go after Nidoqueen, since I figured Crime could handle Gengar with Sucker Punch. It didn't, but Gengar did go down to about 10% left. Congress finishes Nidoqueen off with a HJK. Gengar cuts me some slack and uses Shadow Ball on Crime. Crime and Congress vs Gengar and M.Venosaur - Aya obligatorily heals Gengar, so I have Congress go after M.Veno with an HJK, which landed Critical....but only took it down to about 15%. M.Veno targets Crime with Power Whip, and kills it. Misery and Congress vs Gengar and M.Veno - This is it. We're both on our last two pokemon at this point. But I have the advantage. Congress crushes Gengar with Crunch and Misery wipes M.Veno out with a Flamethrower. Victory is ours! And the spoils of the battle *BIng Bing Dingitty Bong* You know when you hear that sound it's time for today's Stay or Go with Penthus! Let's present today's candidates The Selection... The Release... And now you know why I'm upset. Damn RNG. Well, off to the Railnet. A little progression will open a lot more replacement options.

I'm surprised you don't have X-Scissor on Orion to deal with Grass/Posion dual type pokemon. What moves does Orion havE?
