finally, balth would you mind putting a day counter in the first ic post? today marks the fourth day of their journey I think. it just helps me gauge how fast things are going for character development purposes!

I shouldn't have to. It would feel redundant. We started on May 1st, and I'm keeping track of the days as we go. 

Also, it's totally cool if ya'll want to train a little more, but your Pokemon aren't that far behind what the Gym Leader and Head Coordinator will be using. They will be using three Pokemon each at levels 11, 13, and 15. I just don't want you to spend tons of time training only to find out that you didn't NEED to do so. Of course, this information is purely for your discretion; there is no way your characters themselves would know this.
