So, they surrounded the electric guy with rock types. Yeah, I think Vermilion City is secretly sending you a message.

was just thinking about this with the rock type gym in X and Y, why the hell would it be soo damn close to a beach?

its because nintendo thinks we r noobs

Makes more sense than Koga surrounding himself by trainers who use psychic pokemonΒ
π: 0 β©: 3
Koga is a freaking NINJA! Misdirection is half the game in that career!
π: 0 β©: 0
Actually, it makes perfect sense. When you know Koga uses Poison-type Pokemon, what's the first Pokemon you're going to send out into battle against his Gym's Trainers? Most likely a Pokemon that is NOT well-equipped for taking on some random Hypno at the very start of the Gym.

Reading their dialogue it's clear the trainers are trying to learn how to be better at illusions, hunting tactics, etc. All of which Koga brings to the table. But your point remains

The only exception I can think of is Drayden/Iris. But, then again, you CAN catch a vanillish or vanilluxe by then.

That, and apparently, steel-types like Pawniard/Bisharp are resistant to dragon-type attacks. :3 I was pleasantly surprised to learn that~

It's just a big coinkydink that there's a bunch of Timburr, Throh, and Sawk near a Normal-type Gym, ain't it?

Plus you get given a coloured monkey that just happens to be super effective against whichever of the first gym leaders you face XD I got the red one (I forgot his name because I nicknamed him, so he's just Louis to me. Pansear?)

Let's see, what other Gyms are greatly inconvenienced by nearby wildlife...
Oh yeah, Blaine and Giovanni. Lots of Water-types in that sea!
Clair: The Ice-types in Ice Cavern
Roxanne: Shroomish
Elesa: Sandile
Clay: Vanillite and Ducklett
Skyla: Chargestone Cave
Viola: Fletchling
Olympia: Pumkpaboo/Phantump

(Yeah, Pansear)
Wattson got lucky - no Ground-types readily available at the time.

Geodude in the Granite Cave

...Okay, besides that.

We were talking about super-effective PokΓ©mon that just happen to be in the area of the Gym Leader.
Starters don't count.
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha, I made the mistake of deciding to nickname all my PokΓ©mon, so I ended up not very sure of some of the names afterwards. I remember everyone else's except Pansear and Simisear when he evolved XD
Agh, Wattson was so annoying! XD I think I had to evolve my Torchic to beat him

I had to train my Emerald team over in Colosseum just so they could keep up with him.

Never thought about it like that, but, as this points out, nintendo does troll its gym leaders...

Not said that you face clair nearly the ICE pathBlaine surrounded by water or roxie with a magnetime

I just skipped surge and came back after I beat sabrina.

HA HA HA HA HA HA!
Not exactly the best spot for an electric gym now, huh?
NICE ONE!

I didn't get this at first and then it hit me and it was hilarious.
π: 0 β©: 0
Haha I love how the games sometimes seem to be saying, "HINT. HINT!" The Route above Cerulean, which has a Grass-type, then Diglett's Cave. There are a bunch more but I can't think of them right now lol.
Oh! And in Yellow, with Mankey and Nidoran before Brock. Butterfree too.
π: 0 β©: 0
thats like most areas in the Pokemon Black and White Games,where theres a Gym there is at least one patch of Grass with just the right type of Pokemon to beat them!
very funny comic!

I remember Dig was also grossly overpowered back then (probably had the same power as Earthquake in Gen 1). A well trained Dugtrio with Dig could almost always sweep any NPC team, save flyers.

Start with Bulbasaur.
Great against Brock and Misty, resists electricity, immune to toxic against Erika and Koga, and wonderful against Giovanni.
It only really misses out against Sabrina and Blaine but by that point you'll have a water type anyway and Sabrina's pretty much fair game to pretty much anything but a poison or fighting type. Just get something with decent SP. Defence and speed and you're set.

Depends on what generation you're talking about, Gen 1 or the Gen 3 remakes?
π: 0 β©: 1
I forgot, isn't the Saur family capable of learning some ground-type moves as well? It would be stupid for Venusaur not able to learn Earthquake.
π: 0 β©: 1
Venusaur can indeed learn Earthquake. It's also got very decent Special Defence, which is great against fire-types where all their moves are special.

I like how the Gen 1 starters are so versatile. I wish the newer gen starters were like that. The closest one was Gen 4's where Torterra could get a STAB with a ground-type move against Infernape; Infernape's fighting-type can get a STAB against the Steel-typed Empoleon, and Empoleon can easily learn any ice-type move leveling up and inflict 4x damage against Torterra.
π: 0 β©: 1
How were they versatile? Charizard got double the advantages against Venusaur and Blastoise couldn't do anything to Venusaur unless it had an ice-type move.
G4 probably is the most versatile when it comes to starter vs. starter.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, but G4 was basically G1 and G3 combined. A quadrupedal grass type too heavy to move and a fire-fighting type. The only innovative starter was Empoleon, although I don't get the relation between penguins and metal.
What I meant is that Charizard's dragon-like appearance made it versatile to learn Dragon moves and Steel Wing against the rock-types. Blastoise was also versatile. The most disappointing starters were Gen 2's.

What are you talking about? Penguins are totally metal.
But yeah, Meganium was useless as nuts.
