It took me so long just to get this far because I was trying to get a Pikachu Heracross so Maylene wouldn't be totally impossible. This involved spreading honey on five trees at a time and going back and checking all of those trees multiple times.

Team:

Scissors♂ (Kricketune) lv. 30
Queenie♀ (Vespiquen) lv. 30 (this one I got lucky with, I found it while searching for Heracross.)
Brandon♂ (Dustox) lv. 25
Berry♀ (Burmy) lv. 15

Training that Burmy is a Pikachu. Thankfully, it just learned Bug Bite, so now at least it has a STAB move. I think I'll go back to Eterna Forest and train it. Also, does it matter what cloak it is?
I believe Sandy Cloak was specified for your Wormadam.

No luck with Heracross yet huh? Well at least you're nearing the Great Marsh and Yanma. And the further you progress in the game, the more honey trees you can access, boosting your odds.
Maylene was just Pikachu impossible. Thank GOD Vespiquen and Dustox have Gust, and even then, Lucario only went down because of a Crit from X-Scissor.

Now I need to get to Pastoria so I can use the Move Tutor to give Vespiquen Toxic in place of Gust. Or maybe Confuse Ray. I'm not sure yet.
Does your heart have a beat?

Yeah make an exception for yourself if you find a shiny. You'll be forgiven.

It's just a shame you can't train it during this game.

I'm doing Poison and he's doing Normal (though he traded his with moves already on them at low levels, so it was a little unfair). I'm doing great with it. The Elite Four might be tricky though.

I'll let you know when I finish it.

@smeel: Spoink! That is all.
I just beat the Elite Four last night! :D I'll probably go through the post game and catch Mewtwo in a Poke Ball and the dog that's running around too.
