  • Difficulty: Hard Mode

Note: Brock's Pokémon do not have EV investments.

Optimal Strategy

Preparation

  • Starter Choice: Pick Bulbasaur to guarantee access to Sleep Powder and immunity to Toxic.
  • Second Starter: Aim for a Water-type result in the Second Starter Personality Quiz. Special Attackers are preferred to bypass Vulpix's Will-O-Wisp.
  • Wild Catches:
    • Pikachu (Viridian Forest): Useful against Zubat and to paralyze Vulpix.
    • Maschiff (Route 1): Adds Dark-type coverage and isn't weak to Rock/Fire.
    • Mankey (Route 22): Essential for Fighting-type damage against Onix.

Battle Tactics

  1. Vs Geodude: Lead with Bulbasaur. Use Sleep Powder immediately, then faint it with a Grass move. This prevents Geodude from setting up Stealth Rock.
  2. Vs Zubat & Vulpix: Switch to your Water-type starter or Pikachu.
  3. Vs Onix: Use Sleep Powder again, then follow up with Grass moves or switch to Mankey to use a Fighting-type move.

Alternative Path: You can pick Squirtle and catch an Oddish in the forest for a similar strategy, but Bulbasaur remains the optimal choice for Kanto.

Cerulean City Gym: Misty (Click to Expand)
  • Type Specialty: Water
  • Badge: Cascade Badge
  • Difficulty: Hard Mode

Misty's Team

Icon Pokémon Level Item Ability Moveset
Psyduck (M) 25 Eviolite Swift Swim
  • Scald
  • Flip Turn
  • Rain Dance
  • Yawn
Goldeen 25 Eviolite Lightning Rod
  • Scald
  • Whirlpool
  • Knock Off
  • Haze
Gyarados 25 Leftovers Intimidate
  • Waterfall
  • Temper Flare
  • Earthquake
  • Dragon Dance
Staryu 25 Eviolite Natural Cure
  • Scald
  • Toxic
  • Rain Dance
  • Recover
Starmie 25 Life Orb Natural Cure
  • Hydro Pump
  • Psychic
  • Ice Beam
  • Thunderbolt

Optimal Strategy

Preparation

  • Grass Coverage: You need Ivysaur or Gloom to handle the early threats.
  • Electric Speed: Catch a Yamper past Nugget Bridge (Route 24) to evolve into Boltund.
    • Why? Boltund has a faster Speed BST than Starmie, making it superior to Pikachu for this fight.
  • Intimidate Cycling: It is recommended to catch Skiddo and Ekans (with Intimidate) on Route 4, or Luxio (with Intimidate) on Route 5.

Battle Tactics

  1. Vs Psyduck & Goldeen: Lead with your Grass-type. Use Sleep Powder + Grass moves on Psyduck immediately to prevent Rain Dance. These two should not cause much trouble.
  2. Vs Gyarados: This is a major threat. Cycle your Ekans and Luxio to stack Intimidate drops, lowering its Attack by at least 2 stages.
    • Once its Attack is low, inflict Status (Paralysis or Poison).
    • Finish it off with an Electric-type (Pikachu is safe here once Gyarados is weakened).
  1. Vs Starmie: Use Boltund. Its Electric move might not OHKO, but the recoil from Starmie's Life Orb combined with your damage will faint it eventually.
Vermilion City Gym: Lt. Surge (Click to Expand)
  • Type Specialty: Electric
  • Badge: Thunder Badge

  • Encore
  • Nasty Plot

Note: Magnemite has 0 Atk IVs. Electabuzz has 0 Atk IVs & 0 Happiness.

Optimal Strategy

Preparation

  • Immunity is Key: Bring Grass and Ground-type mons to take less/no damage from electric moves.
  • Recommended Pokémon:
    • Chinchou / Lanturn (Route 11): Highly Recommended. Its Volt Absorb ability heals it when hit by Electric moves, and it resists Surf. Using Lanturn trivializes this fight.
    • Sandshrew: The best wild Ground-type encounter available at this stage.
    • Venusaur: The best Grass-type option for resisting Electric damage.

Notes

  1. This is a fairly easy gym compared to others. You can have at least 2 electric-immune mons, so your only problem might be Magnemite.
  2. You can deal with it in a lot of ways, but simple solutions are using Poison-type mon and using multi-attack moves like Fury Swipes.
  3. So just use Lanturn, and you will have 0 problem.

Optimal Strategy

Preparation

  • You need Poison, Fire, Flying, Bug Pokemon generally. At this point, you have a lot of options for your Pokémon, and most of them are gonna be fully evolved.
  • It might feel harder than previous gyms because her team has EV investment, but you can see how they are invested in here, and you can also EV train your mons.
  • There are a lot of Pokémon you can use, but the best mons will be Venusaur, Gyarados, Annihilape, and Scyther. Scyther is obtainable in the Game Corner.

Notes

  • Venusaur and Scyther can deal with all her pokemon exept Ceruledge.
  • Gyarados will help you deal with Ceruledge and also has the potential to sweep, because it will have Ice Fang and Dragon Dance at this point in the game.
  • Annihilape is a great way to shut down Cradily.
  • If you are having trouble with Ceruledge's Poltergeist, you can simply remove the held item from your mon, then it will fail automatically.
