Alright, the Challange has begun.

Of course up through Starman Jr. wasn't effected by the chllange, as shops aren't even avaliable yet.

Of course as soon as I got to Onett, I aquired the only piece of equipment I could. Mr. Baseball Cap.


Things got surpisingly difficult though. It wsn't so bad, I'm just not use to having to watch my HP closer and as a result died a couple times.


Frank would have went down my first attempt at level 6, but I didn't realize that without the Cheap Bracelt I normally had he did 35 damage when he tears into you, and went down. I just farmed a couple burgers from Pogo Punks, which inadvertantly got me to level 7, then proceeded to kick franks ass. B)

NExt I got the Travel Charm of course, not that it really does much good for conqureing Giants step.



The first real challange came from fighting The Titanic Ant.

Level 11 this is how it went.

"Titanic Ant bites Ness! SMASH!"
"Ness attacks with Psi Rockin"
"Black ant A and B defeated"
"Titanic atn bites NEss!"
And I was defeated.

So, without Cheap bracelet, it is possible to die after 2 attacks from Titanic ant at 11.
I just farmed a couple leves and tried again. Took me a bit, but keeping close eyes on my life and making use of Shield, I beat him without to much difficulty. Though I had to hope I didn't get hit with a Smash again.

I had no real choice but to open with Psi Rockin, cause if I used Shield, the ants would beat on me as well, and if I got smashed even with the shield, it would spell another defeat if those ants could hit me too.

Overall, this challange isn't so bad yet.

The Titanic ant fell to my bat, and Giant step became mine.



Edit: Later pictures won't have the ugly white spots in them, promise. :P

And they will probably be snapped at a better time too. XD
