Episode 36 - The Stormy Cycling Road

Now wandering without any clear sense of where the next Gym is, Ash finds his way over to Route 17: The cycling road between Celadon and Fuchsia.

Of course, this is a problem. They're on the south side of the Cycling Road near Fuchsia and trying to go north, but the bike shop is in Cerulean and Ash destroyed Misty's bike way back when. So that's not happening.

So they end up taking a job at the nearby Pokemon Center. Medicine needs to be delivered to another Center on the north side, and the Pokemon Center is willing to offer loaner bikes to get them across the Cycling Road. It works!

Unfortunately, as anyone who's been on Route 17 can tell you, the place is lousy with biker gang NPCs looking for a Pokemon battle. Ash barely even makes it onto the bridge before being challenged.

Biker sends out a Golem. (Aww, he has friends to trade with. That checks out. He's in a gang.) This is really good for Ash. He has two separate Pokemon that do 4x STAB damage to Rock/Ground Types. (That really is atrocious Typing, sorry Brock.) So he makes the smart play and chooses Bulbasaur for the easy win.

Unfortunately, Ash fails to account for levels. Golem powers through Bulbasaur's Vine Whip by virtue of having a much stronger stat block and higher level, then oneshots Bulbasaur with a Tackle. Ash really needs to level up his still-juvenile Starters. He's six Badges in!

Ash panics and uses Charmander. It's a terrible choice but we know how this goes. Ash's mistakes are rewarded and his smart plays punished. Every time.

Luck delivers when Rock Throw's 65% Accuracy provides Charmander opportunities to slip around it. Meanwhile, G1 Fire Spin remains broken-OP, allowing Charmander to inexplicably take the win. (I'm going to chalk this up to Vine Whip softening up Golem.)

With the Biker defeated, the gang's leader Misa/Tyra steps up to fight. She sends out Cloyster. Ash's Pokedex warns that Cloyster's shell is indestructible and it's not wrong; Stat for stat, Cloyster has the highest Defense in the game. In fact, it's the #7 highest statted Pokemon in G1, tied with Gyarados under the Legendaries, and Dragonite!

But with trash HP and middling Special, Pikachu should be able to take this easily. Never gets the chance to, though, because Misty wants to fight. A Water opponent should be battled by a Water Trainer! ...is her bizarre troll logic. (Ooh, it's been a while since weird shit flew out of Misty's mouth.)

Misty tries to lose the match with Starmie but Psyduck forces their way into the match instead. Misty's dismayed, but Psyduck is right. Starmie would have had a very hard time in this fight, but Psyduck has Confusion for Type coverage that Cloyster isn't strong against.

Unfortunately, Misty has a hard time coaxing out Psyduck's Psychic moves. (To be fair, she tries to use Disable before Cloyster's made any moves, so that's partly on her for not knowing how to use Psychic moves.) And. Uh. Y'know that thing where G1 binding techniques are super broken? Yeah. Tyra uses Clamp to beat Psyduck easily.

Team Rocket provides a bit of complication once it's revealed that Jessie and James used to be members of this gang, and the bikers still have a lot of reverence for them. But when the bikers learn about the urgency of Ash's task, they agree to escort him across the Cycling Road anyway.

Ash delivers the medicine, and manages to cross the Cycling Road! To. Uh. Celadon, I guess.

Ngl I’m kinda digging elhokar and proto-aesudan as an evil powercouple seemingly intent on fucking up the lives of all his family

Part 1

Map

Okay so the map looks like he followed one of those Tumblr posts about "how to make your fantasy map" but got bored halfway through and decided to come back to it later but never did. I hate when a part of a land mass is cut off a map, because like hey..... my grubby little hands want to know why it's cut off there and what is beyond it, but those questions are hardly ever addressed. Honestly it just feels like sloppy world building to me to pull a move like that. Anyway, it's nice to see some names that we recognize from the official books-- and it leads me to wonder how much things will be similar and if I'll be able to make connections to the officials. I'm seeing a lot of names ending in '-ar' already.

The Double Eye

It's interesting to see what essences are posed as opposites, especially wood and flesh (I would say they are more similar than different). The forces will be interesting to see in action, they're written down vauge enough that I'm not sure how they will be used.

Chapter 1

Okay so chulls are a LOT bigger here

Fuck you Meridas, I know you haven't done anything yet, but fuck you,wave Kal alone :(

What do you mean his "two living sons"????!!!!

"but that had been a day before he’d lost both brother and son" :(

Renarin!!!!

This is like the chasmfiend chapter isn't it

Horses seem to be very expensive, even more so than the official (confirmed later, all horses are from Shinavar)

Shardplate here is much more malleable- instead of cracking it bends?

Shardblades can cut through something living in one stroke too, seen later with blood

"full power of Shardplate’s Awakened strength"

Shardblades don't immediately vanish when dropped

They have wooden armor?

"Protocol" hmmm

Okay I know it's supposed to be pronounced the same, but I keep reading Dalenar as Dale-nar

A lone spearman saving his commanding officer?!?! Where have I seen this before? Hmmmmm Merin???

Highstorms aren't as dangerous, they seem like regular storms

Older and younger sets of plate, made by awakeners, so more of a nalthian approach to magic?

If the gemstone is the 'shard' of the blade and makes the bond possible, does this mean plate also has a gemstone?

Sheneres :(

Chapter 9

Jezenrosh Kholin, the second parshen, is cousin to Elhokar. Because he has the last name Kholin, that must mean he has another Uncle, who would be Dalenar's brother, right?

Kinae is only 14????? Fuck off with this Bullshit Brandon. Honestly this is like the only beef I have with Brandon, like dude, come on, don't pull this underage shit. I'm still very mad that Shallan is only 17 in the officals

Crom

Oh no!! Taln what happened

Chapter 10

Jek has a stiletto??? I mean I know it's the knife but can you imagine it being the shoe? And it's just played completely straight

King Avhen is deaf!! I wish something like this had been left in the officals

Someone in house Davar held jek's bondstone?

Kill the Davar family????? Shinri?????

Chapter 6

So the oathgates are just like doorways?

She can hear gemstones? I don't think obsidian is a gemstone though??? (Nevermind, I looked it up, technically they do)

I really like how the oathgates are designed by gemstone and such!! It's a cool concept

The other parshen..... Jezenrosh.....

Dalenar is betrothed? :////

Ezavah is in a coma it appears

Nelshenden is described as 'Zirconic', what is that supposed to mean?
