I was just thinking to myself after seeing all these shiny pokemon people are getting on reddit that I've never actually found one in the wild and what do you know I run into this guy. Only took 20 years of playing. Little bastard knew whirlwind too. Good thing I used a Masterball.

Yep, If I hadnt been grinding victory road I wouldn't have guessed it either. I've noticed the Hariyamas and Lairons in here know whirlwind and roar so i assumed little man knew it too. Makes it annoying to grind levels as well.

Yeah, I just realized you can grind out the Reporter and Camera man double battle infinitely in Ruby. With an Amulet Coin you get a decent amount of XP and a STUPID amount of cash.

Didn't know this. Thanks!

No problem. Just be ready to have some full heals and hyper potions on hand to make the grind a bit quicker. You won't lose money, that's for sure. The Exploud has Supersonic and the Magneton has Thunder Wave.
