Part #2: Proof of Victory
The first part of our challenge will be known as the Proof of Victory. Since our final goal is to get you guys to the very top of the Indigo Plateau, you have to first prove that you're worthy in the eyes of the Pokemon League. To do this, a Pokemon trainer normally has to collect all eight badges. Over these solo challenges we have been handing out various badges. And I have told you that these badges would come in handy for a later challenge... well, this is the one.
However, before we begin I had asked the eliminated players to each give up their badges if they so choose. Only two players offered to give badges, Growlithe and Mewtwo.
Growlithe will be giving her Thunder Badge to SNORLAX along with the message, "The thunder badge had served me well. I hope it does the same for you."
Mewtwo has asked that his Boulder Badge be given to the player who did not receive any badges from players. Since Jolteon already has two, and Growlithe gave hers to Snorlax, the boulder badge will go to VULPIX.
This challenge will prove to us that you are worthy of stepping foot inside the Pokemon League. There will be eight challenges listed below, one for each badge in the Kanto region. You will have to complete each challenge to prove that you are worthy of entering the Pokemon League. Good luck
