I go to Route 218, which I can't do much with now, and get the Old Rod from some guy. Afterwards I head over to Route 204 for some leveling up.

Trainer Battles:

Now it is time to go to Route 203. Once I arrive, I am encountered by my "friend" Barry who decides he wants to battle me and show off his skills. Which leads to a Pokemon Battle.

I kick his butt and he is just shocked and appalled by this and he vows he will never lose again and rushes off to Oresomething City to get a gym badge. I guess that's where I'm headed too!

Peter levels up to level 11 and learns water sport.

I return to Route 204 and catch myself a new Budew, and I nickname him Bud.

Then I do some leveling with Bud to catch him up. At level 7, he learns Water Sport.
