I doubt this is actually what happened, but if it is, then I guess I killed Gary's Raticate, which is actually sad. :( But I'm sure all he did was box it realizing that he could have swapped his Raticate for a more appealing Pokemon, even though I found Raticate quite a bother, my first sight of one was my first Rocket Grunt fight, where his level 16 Raticate swept my team of two with Hyper fang, so you can't say Raticate is a bad Pokemon.
