Routes Through Pokemon - Route 16

Ruby and Shea Locke leave Blackthorn City wearing all 8 badges. They encounter new Pokemon on Route 45 and Dark Cave before returning to New Bark Town to get a new Pokeball. They enter Tohjo Falls on Route 27 and...find they're in Kanto. Tough trainer battles, some more Pokemon, and a battle with their rival before they take on the new Elite Four. Can they beat them? And a visitor from the future gives a sneak peak at some of the differences found in HeartGold.

With a rival battle, Ruby and Shea Locke decide to battle on air again. Has Ruby improved enough to take on her old man?

Stay tuned after the episode to see how things are going for both Murasaki and Violet.

Next Week:

We are on our summer break! But we will still release something next week and that will be another collection of the stories thus far. There might be some part rearrangements since some were popped into weird spots out of necessity. As for our regular episodes, look for those to return in late August!
