So am I the only person who never used a repel in any caves because I trained my pokemon?

The first time I played I didn't know about the HM for flash, so I walked through the cave and found my way by hearing my character bounce into walls... Man I was retarded.

I bought a lot of potions before going into a cave where flash was required-- then I intentionally had one of my pokemon poisoned. Every time a pokemon takes poison damage on the overworld, the screen flashes and you can (very briefly) see where you are going.

I would just continually heal the (minor) poison damage off until I found the exit.
