No need, please just edit the post so I can quote the right level ;)

Huh, well would you look at that. Do you want me to quickly give it some candies and boost its level up to 37?

A quick heads-up, turns out Tirtouga is Lv 27 according to Tess's edit of its last level gain (following the link you posted)

Sure thing.

For the evo stone for the Tirtouga trade, would I be able to have the Fire Stone?

I know you're giving preference to newcomers, but I'll make an offer for Tirtouga as well (feel free to make it public, it's no secret): 5 Candies, Lv 25 Starmie in Psychic Ball and an evolution stone outside of Leaf.

Picked you up in the Dream World over at BMG.

Well if it's alright by you, I would prefer to continue the adventure rather than start a new one.

I'm always ok with retcons considering how slow everything around here tends to move. It's up to you really, I'm good either way, let me know what you prefer!
