    I have never managed to hook a Poliwag with a fishing rod of any kind. Your best bet is to just surf on certain waters. Water in Violet City and to the east are reliable spots to find Poliwags.

    • There's always Bellylax since this is Crystal we're talking about. Or a Rest abuser.

    Something like

    Curse
    Body Slam
    Rest
    Belly Drum

    Not entirely sure, though.

    • They can be traded, i've done that before. But of course you must have >1 Pokemon in your party, since you can't run around with just an egg. The OT is not who obtained the egg, it's who hatched it.

    • Can you actually let a pokemon evolve by giving them rare candy's (and is this allowed in a monotype challenge)

    I was wondering because the evolution of togepi is partly flying and I need flying pokemon for the challenge, however I can not train a togepi as it is not flying.

    Thanks in progress.

    • Yes. If you level up a Pokemon with rare candies it will evolve, and I'm pretty sure it's allowed in Monotype challenges. You'll have to ask the person running it though. But! Togepi evolves into Togetic via happiness, so you can't just keep giving it rare candies and hope that it evolves. You've got to max out its happiness and then give it a rare candy.

    Ok thanks, and now I'm busy anyway, how can you raise there happiness exactly (I never knew it) I only know that in goldenrod there is a barbershop or something which makes them happier.

    • Yeah, the Barbershop will help and also walking 256 steps adds a point. Gaining a level does well, too. If all goes well, it should evolve around...well, mine evolved at level 31 after lots of walking and barbershopping. Also, I think it helps that you hatched the Togepi out of the Egg. Maybe it'll evolve sooner for you.

    • in the underground basement in Goldenrod, there's that little switch puzzle. i know how to get through it to rescue the director, but there's one thing that has always eluded me. how do you get to that pokeball item nestled in the far lower left of the area? what's the switch code to get there?

    • how was gender determined in gen 1 and gen 2 games? i read that in gen 3 it's derived from the personality value, but what was it based on before that was introduced?

    is it like shininess where it's based on some existing stats of the pokemon (eg IV's)? or if i traded a pokemon from GSC to RBY and then back a little later, is there a chance it would switch gender?
