Triple posting? In this economy? Nice to see the Let's Go games are as popular as ever. Still! All good so far, very much enjoying the game. Mime's Psywave ruined Wartortle and Kadabra combined, was an awkward time. Surge got demolished by Nidoqueen and Geodude - Charmeleon failed to KO Magnemite with Dig and got one-shot by Thunderbolt which was an *oof* moment but what can you do? Mina's Jigglypuff got Headbutt'd to death by Arcanine before Mr. My newest team member, Machop, has been pretty solid so far as well - I'm wary of how frail it is but compared to other recent additions it's been actually usable, so that's nice. Arcanine has been a major disappointment so far thanks to Ember and just not having that much power? Pikachu and Ivysaur have also been a bit underwhelming but Ivysaur makes up for it by being the fourth most unkillable team member behind Eevee, Graveler and Nidoqueen. Stand-out team members so far have been the Partner-Eevee which is absolutely busted in this game, Graveler thanks to resisting Normal and learning all the strong moves early on, Nidoqueen who has an actually diverse movepool and Wartortle, because Scald goes brrr. Hikers lose to half my team, Black Belts get wrecked by Kadabra, Bug Catchers lose to Charmeleon / Arcanine, Sailors lose to Ivysaur / Pikachu, etc. Mime and the coach trainer who gives you the TM for Brick Break (that Primeape is scary) but the advantage to having so many team members is the varied typings available to you. surprisingly fun! Not had too many major challenges outside of Mina's Mr. As you can see below, I'm still a level behind his ace Raichu and that's after making it to Lavender Town! It has been. catching a bunch of Pokemon for experience) I was going to be under-levelled for Surge. I've made quite a bit of progress and am now sat inside Pokemon Tower! Clearing the routes around Vermillion wasn't too tough but I quickly realised that without "grinding" (i.e. Thanks to my Squirtle hunt I'd caught the 5 Meowth necessary to get the free Arcanine, so I made them my ninth team member and rode on her majestically back to the route so I could clear the trainers. Finding one was pretty difficult since they kept teleporting away but I got one! Training it will be. Took a little while due to the Scald burn + Vine Whip being awful STAB now, but c'est la vie.įrom there I reached Route 6 to capture my eighth team member, an Abra. She was not! Pikachu learnt Light Screen right before taking her on so I set that up against Psyduck and 2HKOed with Thundershock, before swapping to Ivysaur to whittle Starmie down with Leech Seed + Vine Whip for a clean sweep. I saved Bill from staying a Nidorino permanently and made my way back to Cerulean City to take on Misty, who I suspected would be a challenge. My entire team hit level 17 by doing this meaning I had to be very careful not to surpass the assigned level cap (level 19) but thanks to a larger than usual line-up I was able to manage that. Searching for Squirtle took ages, oh my god I had two catch combos ruined around the 6-7 mark by the Pokemon fleeing (both Meowth and Pidgey) but I managed to reach 11 combos with Psyduck in the end. Trace was defeated soundly before I made my way up Nugget Bridge and onto Route 24/25, where I began hunting for my seventh team member. Normally I have middle-stage starters by this point but Bulbasaur only just evolved as I took on the fossil guy, whilst Charmander didn't evolve until I'd cleared Nugget Bridge! My team handled all the route trainers without major issue though so I didn't really struggle. Moon and the Team Rocket influence in the area, waiting very patiently for a Clefable to appear so I could work on the Pokedex a bit before I progressed.
