The mop-up has many forms.
The challenge is really besides the point, though.
A good mop-up, I reckon, will always have a few common elements.
Finally, an essential ingredient: a small amount of bullshit.
Catching Pokemon is easy on paper but in practice it is as hard as you want to make it.
But not all Pokemon can learn False Swipe!
And what about those sleep- or paralysis-inducing moves?
It needs to know them too if you want to get through this quickly.
Then you want to level it up,thenyou may begin.
And remember: this is one of several methods you’ll be using along the way.
Again: this is what makes a good mop-up a good mop-up.
Because they’re neat.
In fact a mop-up, really, is a recovery of control.
A rearrangement of the power.
A rare case of using your time to game as a gift to no-one but yourself.
