So we're taken to a boring and empty room. But, we don't care about that, so we'll just head up the staircase in it to reach the room with Cipher Peon Naps and our Professor!

Really, Professor? You're honestly going to try to talk this out?

GXXE01-24.png

You have got to be kidding me. The Professor is actually getting through to this guy?! Well, I can't have people in the Pokémon world thinking that you can solve problems without violence. Time for me to interfere!

GXXE01-25.png

Yep.

GXXE01-26.png

Do you know anyone else who looks even close to being this awesome?

GXXE01-27.png

No, I came here with an Espeon to rescue Professor Krane. There's a huge difference.

GXXE01-28.png

You could always resign. It would probably be healthier for you than having your mind split open by my Psychic kitty.

GXXE01-29.png

That's right, I did! Aw, good times. Hey, do you remember that time I walked through an entire Cipher base defeating everyone in the way, finishing up with the poor shmuck who no longer even had a Shadow Pokémon to protect himself with? No? Give it a minute. It'll come to you.



Apologies for the audio and visual errors. As I said, it's a glitch of the emulation process.

Normally, Naps wouldn't even be that much of a threat. And this was actually the worst battle of the three I fought with him (trying to figure out how much to record, the video files get big), due to that unlucky critical. But in my usual playthroughs, I've already EV trained Espeon (which you can do at Mt. Battle and against the Hexagon Brothers), so I'm not only several levels higher, but I'm also far more optimized.

Stupid Murkrow and its stupid immunity to Psychic. Why did they have to break the Psychic class in Gen II?! Why?!

You can tell he's a higher rank because he says "Punk" instead of "Brat".

GXXE01-42.png

Stupid Mareep. Had you evolved one fight earlier, you probably would have one-shotted that annoying little birdy.

GXXE01-32.png

I bet Cipher has nothing on Organization XIII.

GXXE01-33.png

Aw, how cute, he thinks his advice is important to us.

GXXE01-34.png

Now we have the Professor treating us with the respect we deserve. Awesome.

GXXE01-35.png

Pfeh. Please. What's the worst that could happen? I've still got chests to loot.

GXXE01-36.png

Well, I'd hope so. For one thing, I heard about others from the coffee break dudes downstairs. But more importantly, if this was their only base, they'd kind of be out of business now, wouldn't they?

GXXE01-37.png

"Complicated" he says. As though he's actually going to do anything besides cower behind me should we run into anyone.

Relax, Professor. I'm sure we can stay down here as long as we want and no one will come bug us.

GXXE01-38.png

Sweet! A third party member! Let's see, we've already got Jovi as a healer, so I guess Krane is going to be our wizard. This is going to be awesome.

GXXE01-39.png

Good to know. But I'm planning on using doggies for my fire types. I already have a Houndour, and I'm going to get a Growlithe. So I don't really need you.

GXXE01-40.png

Last chest.

Before I leave though, I'm going to prove to the Professor that time isn't a concern. So I take him down through the Cipher Lab, showing every point of interest, and every place where I whooped a Cipher nobody.

I also show him the healing machine, and explain to him how important it is to get these all over the world so we can stop being dependent on Pokémon Centers.

I also take a moment to heal up. I'm confident, I'm not stupid.
