Okay...making good time...

Oh, right, I wanted to ask if anyone has any good training suggestions? We uh, got beat up really hard at the Violet City gym....I can't believe that Pokemon could get so strong....there's no way I don't want to be prepared for that!

Anyway, I'm actually heading to Cherrygrove City again...I'm gonna meet someone there. I, uh, should I like, buy more camping stuff? Definitely more food...but um...[Blushes a little.]

So, any advice would be great, thanks.

[ See, this is why he said battle's important too, kiddo. But he can't blame Wirt. This training pokemon business is harder than it looks, after all. ]

Get some potions. Don't be afraid to use 'em.

[ Idea. ]

You need a sparring partner?

Wirt-kun... have you been training them regularly since I left you in Violet? You should be at least on the same level with me! I've got four badges now, so step it up, okay?

[She means it in a friendly way.]

Of course you should. Got a tent yet?

You should get a repel. It can keep pokèmon away at night. I'm on my way to Azalea town. I've been training my pokèmon by letting them battle every pokèmon we meet on the way, and I am letting my weaker pokèmon grow stronger by letting them watch the battles until they are ready to take them on.

I'm still new here, so I don't know if there's a better way to train, but it seems sensible to me.

If our paths cross, maybe we can meet up. I've been feeling a bit lonely travelling without a friend.
