#18. Heartbreaker


Artists are afoot. I can sense it. I can smell the patchouli oil.


Music: Bianca (B2/W2)




You're just giving me this? No reason?


Good segue. Unless there is a meaning other than the standard meaning of a grotto that cannot be easily seen, no. I don't know what those are. Please elaborate.


. . . what place?


D-did you forget to say what it was?


???


Did you hear something? Over all of the street musicians, motorcycles revving and . . . patchouli oil?


. . . I see.



Bianca I—


. . . you HEARD this?



[>No.



Choro Notes: Regardless of your answer, Bianca shoves you into the treehole.


Choro Notes: Hidden Grottoes
Each Hidden Grotto has certain Pokémon that can appear in it. Some are rarer than others. Most often, though, you'll find items. Minccino is the rarest one you can find in this particular grotto, but it's always the first one you find here. The way these work is when you first find a grotto, there will always be something in it. After that, they have a 5% chance of having something else in them every 256 steps. In this particular forest, Minccino have only a 1% chance of appearing. Liepard has a 4% chance and Foongus has a 15% chance. The rest of the results are all items.


Choro Notes: Monsters found within Hidden Grottoes will always have their hidden ability. That is, the third ability that they can't normally be found with in the wild.



. . . what a weird girl.


Now then, for you my brush-tailed little friend.


Easy peasy.





Choro Notes: Minccino's hidden ability is Skill Link, which was originally unique to Shellder and Cloyster. Skill Link takes those moves that hit a variable number of times and makes them always hit for the maximum amount. So Double Slap, Icicle Spear, Rock Blast, etc. Maximum hits.

This maid is still here and will still buy food items off of you for a premium. You can do something with her in Black2, though. Remember how we bought a dozen Casteliacones back in Castelia City for 100P a shot? She buys them for 500P a piece. You can buy a dozen cones every day and then take them here and sell them if you really wanted.

Yes, who else would it be?

???: . . . Reading is your hobby, Vinny? I see.

: A-are you looking up my profiles? That's weird. Also no, that's just the only option they let me select that was even close to being creative. Which I am. With paint and junk.

???: That sounds kind of fun. Maybe I should take it up, too. . . . Oops! My colleague is calling me. I have to get back to work! Good-bye.

: . . . friggin' weird. You can answer it next time Jawnie.

Man that thing's loud.


Choro Notes: If you come here before beating Elesa, this is your roadblock. He's a heartbreaker . . . His name . . . Charles.


Yea alright, I'll have him.


Pokémon battling called Rotation Battle."
Choro Notes: In White2 version, Charles challenges you to a Triple Battle, instead. Unlike Black and White, Rotation battles are not mostly limited to Black. Rotation and Triple battles both occur more often and in both Black2 and White2.


You could say that, I guess. Maybe.


. . . Let's do this already.




Choro Notes: Tail Slap
Tail Slap is the signature move of Minccino and Cinccino. It's literally just a slightly stronger Double Slap.


. . .



. . . god damn that guy's cool.


What? Yeah. Yeah. I'm cooler than Charles. Definitely. Yeah.




I'm an artmaker . . . My name . . . Vinny. Yeah.



the heartbreaker, Charles."
Ok, one of those is new to me. I'll see it when I get there, I guess.




What? Why?


. . .


Choro Notes: If you wait on the bridge long enough, you can hear Charizard's cry off in the distance.


Choro Notes: You can still find feathers and Duckletts by walking into the shadows that appear on the bridge, as well.


Bridges are cool and all, but I can't help but think a ferry would be faster.


Music: Driftveil City


That . . . makes some more sense, yeah.


I don't know what it is, but I like this sculpture.


!






take over the world!"
and saying how great you are!"







Oh no.


No no no HUGH I AM LEARNING THINGS WITHOUT THEM KNOWING I AM LEARNING THINGS.


THEY WERE ALREADY TALKING. I WAS EAVESDROPPING, YOU ASS.


DID YOU JUST PUNCH THAT GUY?!




HUGH, YOU ARE A FUCKING ASSHOLE, BRO.


Oh.

Hmm.
