I'm currently in the pokemart, buying all the things that I'll need for skorupi. It will take skorupi 3 weeks to get out of her baby phase and ready for battling. So here I am emptying my pockets. The league gives 10k poké to beginners for 6 months, in which you either get a badge or get your lisence terminated .
If you do manage to get a badge your monthly stipend will be increased to 15k , which is the average monthly income for a 4 person family . After getting your 1st badge u will have a year to collect 2 more. After which your monthly stipend will be 30k. Then u get another year for 5 more badges, the stipend will be increased accordingly. If u get 8 badges U will be recognised as a senior trainer and will get to take part in the indigo league.
But for all that, I don't understand why is this miltank milk so expensive. 1 week of this milk is worth 1.5k , they are looting us I tell you. I had saved a total of 60k poké in all these years through my orphan status as we get a small amount of money every month till we are eligible to find jobs or start our journey at 14 .
so after spending a total of 12k and getting everything I'd need to provide Skorupi for 1 month I left the mart.

She is finally hatching, my first pokemon. I look on as she slowly gets out of the now cracked egg and looks at me, "skoruuu" ,she says adorably and no matter who tells you what I did not squeal.
Skorupi (poison/bug)
Gender- Female
Ability- Battle Armor
Level- 1
Moves - leer, poison sting, cross poison, sword dance.
I filed away the new information I could see for later and began cleaning her , after cleaning and feeding her while being careful of her claws and teeth She went to sleep right after. Sigh! this is going to be a hectic few weeks.

It has been a month since Skorupi hatched and a week since I started training her . while leer and poison sting are alright for now sword dance is so slow it's impractical in battle currently and cross poison, while better than sword dance, drains a lot out of her so would only be used as a last resort.
I think I should hunt a few poison type pokemon so taht skorupi can eat their poison core. but taht will have to wait a couple more weeks till skorupi is strong enough.
on the other hand I finally confirmed that the anime storyline is part of this world since I heard that Professor Oak's grandson Gary Oak is going to get this year's one of the three Regional starters in 2 weeks. well it's good to have connections I guess. I already suspected since Brock is the Gym leader in Pewter but Misty's father William Waterflower is the gym leader of Cerulean and not her Sisters.
I need to check if Ash exists because if he does I need to make sure I don't accidentally hinder his journey. That guy saves the world way too many times and I'm not going to mess things up for him and risk the world going kaboom.
