Revision as of 18:43, 13 August 2023
The Fighting Club acts as the game's one real "quest", which requires possibly revisiting locations you've already been to accomplish a certain goal. Upon first entering the main area of the Fighting Club, you'll find it strangely empty, with only Leader Mitch in attendance. He tells you the following when you first speak to him, which sets the event flag:
I am Mitch, Master of the Fighting Club!
I have to warn you that you will be unable to defeat me!
If you wish to duel me, you must defeat my pupils first!
My pupils are training at the other clubs!
Go see if you can defeat all 3 of my pupils!
Until you actually do go and defeat all three of his pupils at the clubs listed above, he will continue to repeat the last three lines. Upon defeat each member of the Fighting Club will return, and once all three return you will be able to challenge Mitch.
Much of the advice from the Rock Club holds true here since Fighting, Rock, and Ground are closely related in this era of the TCG. It's rare that the Fighting Club members are going to be able to exploit your weaknesses unless you're using a Lightning / Colorless deck, and their decks are highly unlikely to feature resistance to most of your deck.
