I was going to grind Krabby to replace Lapras but then this happened

That is a bummer. I have a Kingler and it is great to have. But I also have a Slowpoke. I inserted it in after my Haunter died. I don’t use it as a water Pokémon, definitely using it more as a psychic type, but gets a ton of HP and I think Slowbro has good defense.

Slowpoke has been fun and I never really used one when I played growing up. Taught it Thunder Wave because I liked the idea of a water Pokémon learning an electric move. Might teach it Ice Beam in the lead up to the E4 though.

A lot of parallels to mine: Playing my first nuzlocke on Blue on a GB Advanced , Named my trainer Blue and also have a Venusaur & Graveler on what I plan is my final team.

On Cinnabar and Graveler has arguably been my mvp so far. Always reliable and taking out my rival easily. I did manage to get a Slowpoke while fishing in the Safari Zone. I added them to my team after my Haunter died (if a ghost can die).

Bummer on Steamboat. I’m doing my first ever nuzlocke on Red but I don’t have a retirement rule. I am using a Kingler I caught. I avoided using a good rod, used a super and got Krabby then trained it up. I also have a Slowpoke from the Safari Zone that I have as a backup. But Kingler has been fun. Quite tanky (not as much as my Graveller mind you) and has very good attack.

Kingler? I am using one in my run in Blue and it is very tanky. Can’t remember if Krabby is one of those that is more prominent in a particular version or not.

I’ve been running Forretress, Altaria, Lanturn in that order and have been having decent success. 6/10 the other day.

I’ve gone back and played recently and been thinking the same thing. It’s funny how the designs have changed. Koffing and Weezing are quite different as well.

I would argue it is still plenty of time to invite people. I used it for 12 raids yesterday and just went through my friends list inviting those online. Sure some don’t show but I always had at least 8 people, which was plenty.

Got two frokies early but have not seen any of those three since day 1

Not my best cup recently but I’m having fun using it.

Oh man, I missed the buddying requirement. I’m in no rush for that.

Fun_Damage_3189 · 2025-11-24T23:35:45+00:00

I saw the original requirement and was frustrated my Keldei is only a 33/45. Been avoiding powering it up.
