That's true. It could have gone a lot worse.

[Although it's hard to feel that, even if he knows it.]

In the Northern Forest, there were a lot of Bug and mushroom Pokemon. And er... Glooms, I think they're called. They smelled so bad my head started swimming. Akechi and I both got poisoned... actually, I got poisoned twice. Junpei and Ren had to turn back before we lost consciousness. Ren didn't seem to get hurt from the poison, though, so he should probably be the one leading new parties into that area. You might be able to go in there, too.
