Leaf Green Solo with Weezing - COMPLETE!
Well, as the line above states, managed to beat the E4 and Champion Solo with Weezing. I can't upload any screenshots yet, need to do some more posts first, but I'll give you some details until then:
'Noxious' the bold, female Weezing
level 87
Thunderbolt, Sludge, Shadow Ball, Flamethrower
'Cut Master' the naughty, male Charizard (grinded against only wild pokemon/double battles so he could learn fly)
level 37
Flamethrower, Fly, Cut, Strength
'Surfin USA' the sassy, male Dratini
level 23
Surf, Thunder Wave, Twister, Dragon Rage
Okay, some quick details on the E4 battles:
Lorelei - Dewgong, Slowbro and Lapras to Thunderbolt; Cloyster and Jynx to Flamethrower
Bruno - Onix x2 and Hitmonchan to 2x Flamethrowers each; Himtonlee and Machamp to 2x Sludges each
Agatha - Gengar x2 and haunter to 1 Shadow Ball each, Golbat and Arbok to 1 Thunderbolt each
Lance - Gyarados and Aerodactyl to Thunderbolt; Dragonairs x2 to 2 Shadow Balls, Dragonite to 3x Shadow Balls
Red (Rival) - Pidgeot - Thunderbolt; Alakazam - Shadow Ball; Arcanine - 2x Thunderbolts; Exeggutor - Shadow Ball+Flamethrower; Rhydon - 2x Shadow Balls; Blastoise - 2x Thunderbolts
I think I'm going to have to not make this into an Ultimate, it was fun but would be too boring to do over 4 games, especially since Weezing's movepool is pretty limited in terms of solo play - Selfdestruct, Explosion and Destiny Bond don't really work well when you're trying to play by yourself XD Can anyone give me an idea for a pokemon that has a large enough movepool and stats in both special and physical attack to back it? And I don't want to do ones like Nidoking, I want to do something unique. I know it's a big ask, but it's kind of the reason I chose Weezing in the first place.
Anyway, that aside, could someone please add me to the list of winners for Leaf Green?
EDIT: I'm going to do another run, starting from Red, with Lickitung. Wish me luck!
UPDATE: Lucky the Lickitung and I are through the first 5 gyms with ease, lucky at about lvl 57 after 4 hours of sped up play. Moveset is Body Slam, Stomp, Thunderbolt and Bubblebeam, though the latter will be replaced with Surf in a moment. Lickitung is AWESOME!!!
