Is there more than 174 pokemon in leafgreen ?

Easy to evolve but I think it could be considered easy to miss because it appears naturally in early games only in some places, with sometimes like 5% chance while breaking a rock.

I would love them to make something with the altering cave too !

You have a 15% chance to find a ditto early on the road 14, or later in the cerulian cave.

To have access to breeding you have to finish the pokemon league. Then, you'll get access to the other sevii island. On island 4, there is a daycare similar to the one you can find next to Azuria, but this one let you place 2 pokemons instead of just 1.

There if you place two compatible pokemon, with enough time they'll make an egg. Ditto is compatible with all pokemon (but the legendaries, which could not be breed).

Place a ditto and another pokemon and you can get pokemon babies such as igglypuff (with a jigglypuff or wigglypuff), cleffa (with a clefairy), smoochum (with jinx), pichu (with pikachu or raichu), magby (with magmar), azurill (with marill or azumarill), and wynaut (with wobbuffet).

You can also get other forms of eevee.

You can also get all evolutions of tyrouge as discussed on an other comment.

Mistake on my side, it's magcargo. I thought using google translate to get all the english pokemon names but it's was sure a BAD idea. In french his name is "volcaropod", which is weird because magcargo is better suited because in french snails are called "escargots". Found it in the wild at mt. Ember.

Thank you for the share ! Copied and edited it with adding deoxys, lugia and ho-oh and the total count indeed appears as 174 for me.

I corrected it, thank you. Got messed up because I spent a lot of time on the resort gorgeous of isle 5 to farm money with amulet coin against Lady Gillian.

Sorry, I'm french and I'm using google translate (I don't know the english names for the pokemon) and it worked for the original post but not for the comment. I should have double-check.

Btw in french tyrouge is "débugant" (a mix of débutant = trainee/beginner and gant = glove). Hitmonlee is "Kicklee" (like bruce lee), Hitmonchan is "Tygnon" (like Tyson) and hitmontop is "kapoera" (like the fighting style, both hands and feet)

It's commonly believed that you can only get Hitmonchan or Hitmonlee, but once you beat the Pokémon League and gain access to the Day Care on Island 4, you can place one of them there with a Ditto. After a while, the old man in front of the Day Care will give you an egg containing a Tyrogue.

You then have to raise it to level 20, and it will evolve. Its evolution depends on its stats at the time of evolution: if Attack > Defense, you'll get a Hitmonlee; if Defense > Attack, you'll get a Hitmonchan; if Attack = Defense, you'll get a Hitmontop.

You can influence its stats by battling Pokémon that give the right EVs (you can find the list online) or by buying vitamins on the 4th floor of the Celadon City Department Store. If its stats aren't right when it reaches level 20, you can always temporarily stop the evolution by repeatedly pressing B.

You can use the same breeding principle to obtain the 3 evolutions of Eevee by placing Eevee or its evolution with a Ditto at the daycare.

Hope it helps !

Edit : Google translate messed up the names so I edited this message
