Blackmarble

Hi! This is my first post and I just wanted to say hello =D PS: I just actually started playing this account today and I had a weird encounter in Route 22. A level 17 Mankey! I'm wondering if it's normal? I don't know where to share this experience so I just include it here. I thought I was done for so I threw a pokeball to see if it would save me from whiting out and.. it did! Talk about headstart haha.. Feels weird though, that high level early in the game. Here's a screenie. It's level 18 now Edit: welp, seems there are indeed high level ones there. I just caught another one but level 16 :/
