So if I can't buy healing items can I buy stuff like Escape Rope? I'm upto Mt Moon so wondering if I can do that.

Sure, it's only going to save you annoyance, not make the game any easier.

What I did was I caught a lvl 5 weedle. The lvl 4 ones might not be high enough. I also got a lvl5 caterpie (for the trainer fights that Weedle couldnt kill on his own) and a bunch of kakuna/metapods for stall on GT/Brock when shit was poisoned.

Yeah, that works better than a high level Butterfree. And the level 4 'mons reach the same level by Brock as the level 5 ones.
As a quick update, I got past Brock in a similar way to Kuno, and am now working my way through Mt. Moon.

Mt moon isn't too hard, but one guy has a magemite which can fuck you over if it spams thundershock.
Right now im trying to decide if I should get a 2nd Butterfree. I have a feeling I might need string shot and maybe even Poison Powder later on. |

brock is dead. I am surprised at the sight of no Rock Tombs... whatsoever in my fight.
but now to train a butterfree now. lol |

lol. Geodude still nearly killed Beedrill with Tackles as I used Harden 6 times. so I had to use a potion, then simply poison + Fury attack. See above, sans the use of a potion for Onix. I was ready for the tombs, but they never came...

Gee, Brain...

The first rival battle is irrelevant as you can't use the starter for Brock anyway. Just need to beat all other trainers with that chosen Caterpie/Weedle to evolve it- mine was L10 having beaten everything apart from the GT and the Rival 2nd battle in Viridian- you can do those for extra levels if it helps.

Rival battle is important because you don't want him with a Charizard lol.

No Rock Tombs at all? Jammy git, my first attempt featured 6 consecutive Rock Tombs, all of which hit, and a critical on my Butterfree. I was RAGEING.
Trying again tonight with the apparently much more viable Beedrill strat.

eh. I know it doesn't matter, and I did all possible fights before brock, I'm just taking a break atm. the girl with the Jigglypuff nearly destroyed me since I thought that I had enough HP...turns out I nearly didn't have enough. but Butterfree and Beedrill live on.

I think what we decided on was level up moves only. It is supposed to be hard after all, although asides from some stupidity against Brock it's been disappointingly easy so far. Shall have to try something similar on a harder pokemon game.
Thinking HG once I'm done with it once, probably the hardest game in the series so far. Certainly the only one in which I've lost to more than one GL, even on set/only using the same number of pokes as the GL/being generally underlevelled.

Misty is hard. I have a lvl14 paras, 15 butterfree and 16 beedrill and she's giving me a lot of trouble.

...er, you could fight all of the people before Lt.Surge before fighting her?
...but yeah, the game did not save. :/ so I am going to have to go back to the hell that is mono-flying FROmega... but yeah, the beedrill route is easier, since you can get a Butterfree before you finish the gauntlet of 6-7 trainers right after brock by switching a caterpie back and forth with said beedrill |

I managed to beat Gary and I'm going up that way now. Hopefully I'll have Leech Life or Twinneedle by the time I face her again.
Ok now I have 19 Butterfree, 18 Beedrill, 19 Paras. Time to try again. Edit: beat misty, got Bfree to 20. Leech life + Paralyze messed up Starmie (although it didnt fully paralyze very often, it really helped to go first and drain a bunch of HP back). |

Is the VS Seeker allowed? I just got one.

Not specifically disallowed, but it's kinda against the spirit of the game. See if you can manage without.

Ok. I just got it and didn't use it (I figured it wasnt but I just randomly talked to this npc and I got it so I was like woah wtf).
I'm in Vermillion atm. Digletts cave is a nightmare with arena trap lol. Time to buy some repels. Update: Beat Surge. He was a joke, but double team was gay. Parasect managed to poison them with effect spore so they died eventually. Update2: My HM slaves are getting some levels due to whirlwind/roar D: Also am upto Lavender town. |
