002; voice/action for route 30
[The voice post is made just before sunset.]
What an odd place, that a nomadic life is so common.
[Brief pause.]
It's certainly not the kind of life I'm familiar with. Does anyone have any practical tips for the road? Pathfinding, cooking, camping...anything is helpful, really.
...Also, is there some safer method of training small Pokemon with little combat ability? I can't help but be hesitant to order a Caterpie to fend off attacks of any kind...
[End of recording.
Ondorus can be found on Route 30 from the 29th of August to the 5th of September. His shoulder is occupied at all times by his prim little Natu - and from the 31st to the 3rd, the other one is taken up by a snoozing Caterpie.]

The map in your PokéGear is a life saver, so if you need to figure out where to go, I'd consult it first. It also helps to catch a larger Pokémon to cut down travel times. Onix can be found in Union Cave, and it'll make your whole life easier.
[He snickers.]
As for the Caterpie... avoid flying types, and you should be okay. Bug types are most effective against grass, so if you find any Bellsprout, they make for good target practice. Otherwise, you'll want to give yours some backup. At least until it becomes a Butterfree.

Union Cave is...[doop doop checking map doop] south of Violet City? Ah, yes, I see it.
Does Caterpie gain ability with evolution?

[Those can be very, very useful...]
...Do you know if there's a library in Violet City?
video
But there's probably at least a bookstore.

Is there something wrong with the town?
video
Not for six months, anyway.

Are you speaking from personal experience?

And I'm not the only one who feels that way, either.
