Mewtwo Fainted!
So you’ve wasted your Master Ball on a significantly worse legendary than Mewtwo and after another hour or so of battling through a cave of Golbats you reach him. TO BATTLE! You go in guns blazing and don’t think about necessary precautions. You’ve got your 99 ultra balls that only takes a chunk out of all those Elite 4 winnings you’ve made? Check. Teams at full health and a bag of hyper potions is at the ready? Check. You saved the game before pressing A on Mewtwo? ….shit.
And so begins the 15+ minutes where your hands have never felt sweatier and your heart is sat in your throat. It’s a big deal when you’re younger… or 20, love for Pokémon never dies! You decide the best strategy is to constantly use ‘Quick Attack‘ in the hope of chipping away his life bit by bit, solid plan! But then the game just has to screw you over, ‘Critical Hit!’
And so 15 minutes later, 4 Pokémon down and 50 uses of ‘Quick Attack’ later you’re staring at something similar to the screen above. Curse that Articuno and your impulse decision to use your Master Ball on it! You know what I’m gonna say by now right? … Next time… yeah.
