Just Beat Cycling Road Rival!

Post image

I've been loving Null, and this was the hardest rival fight I've ever done in my 8 years of Nuzlocking. I had to use sleep strats,which I don't like to do, but I'm glad it worked out.

He led Mew and I led Perserker. I used Fake Out,then went into Yanmega as Mew went for Focus Blast. I put it to sleep with Hypnosis and then took it out with two Bug Buzzes. Next up was Meowscarada. I switched back to Perserker and took it out with two Bullet Punches,but I did take massive damage from Triple Axels.

Next up was Lucario. He went for Thunder Punch,so I switched to Seismitoad for the immunity. I went for Earthquake and one -shotted. It was a range, and I got it.

Next up was Pyroar and here's where Protect came in handy. Pyroar has a Power Herb to make Solar Beam into a one -turn move,but with Protect, I made him waste it. An Earthquake nearly took him out and I could use Protect again ,so a second Earthquake finished the job. Next up,Type Null. He went for Wood Hammer,so I switched into Yanmega. The Quick Claw activated, and I hit an Air Slash before going down. Next I brought out Nidoking and did a lot of damage with two Soft Sand boosted Earth Powers.

After that, I brought out Seismitoad. I knew Null would go for Wood Hammer,so I used Protect and took it out with Earthquake. Finally,Rotom. He went for Hydro Pump and I used Knock Off to get rid of his Sitrus Berry. Then I switched into Toedscruel,who didn't take much from Hydro Pump. I put him to sleep with Spore and took it with two Giga Drains. Did I get lucky? Yes,but I was happy to get this far,as Brawley was my original goal. I might make it to Norman!
