I may or may not have fought (and won!) my first ever P贸ke Gym.

I may or may not have fought (and won!) my first ever P贸ke Gym, thanks to the gentle prodding of a new friend Caitlin who was also fighting at the time. 馃檪 It didn’t last long but I did it. Twice, even! Owen will be so proud. And yes, I may be getting slightly more hooked on this silly game. 馃檪

Of course, this wasn’t planned—we just went to the “goose park” (as Katie likes to call it) to play at the playground. There happened to be a P贸ke Stop right there so that was convenient to grab balls and potions and such while the kids played. Then we walked down to the marina (the geese!) and there was a gym there… After Caitlin assured me I couldn’t possibly hurt anything in Owen’s account or kill his characters, I agreed to fight the gym. I didn’t know what I was doing, but she said she didn’t, either, and nothing bad would happen. Okay, then… And she was right. We had enough potions to heal everything and it was kinda fun. But I did have to laugh knowing that Owen would totally know which P贸kemon to use to fight the best and I was just pointing and poking without any knowledge whatsoever. Good times.
