Gym 6 — in progress September 27
Goal: Serra/Rime Badge, then heal/save+quit and finalize game-only 4x archive with normal-speed BGM. HARDCAP only. Cutoff 2% usage remaining. Recording session035 active. Began after Aya at map223. Returned through Wasteland: smash event211 at97,56; building entry209event180 ->211 ->event19 ->209[45,29]. Cain event92 at11,28. Plan: Cain exit, city healing/supplies, Klink recruit and Ampharos40 training. Keep Klink unevolved until Shift Gear48, then evolve48/49 to Klinklang. Cryogonal Freeze-Dry49; preserve Recover. Arcanine, Swampert, Drapion round out provisional Serra party. Swoobat/Nidoqueen useful for story fights; rotation before Serra. Yureyu: refuse Sigmund battle, fight Sirius, preserving exclusive postgame opportunity. Talk to partner Cain; avoid leaving partnered building. Railnet: obtain House Key (Move Relearner), useful hidden supplies. Tanzan -> forest -> Spinel. Consult exact mirror solution before entering each puzzle; field intact preferred for Serra. Serra: hail, Aurora Veil, accuracy/evasion and crit boosts on Mirror Field. Prepare Lapras answer (Ampharos/Cryogonal), Fire offense, accurate boosted Steel attacks. Do not assume Calm Mind/screens stop field crits. Bruxish Psychic Fangs is optional sixth alternative if Veil remains a problem.
Cain defeated first attempt: Swamp Muddy Water Marowak and weakened Primarina; Swoo Simple CM/Psychic weakened Primarina but fainted; Drap Night Slash Meowstic; Nido Earth Power Muk; Cryo Ice Beam weakened Nidoking, Arca Crunch finished.
