Well, I never looked, but I had a Horsea with Sniper, and when it was Kingdra, it had Sniper, so I assume you're ok.

MickX April 25th, 2010 4:43 AM

If the Horsea has Swift Swim, Kingdra will have Swift Swim. If the Horsea has Sniper, Kingdra will have Sniper. If you somehow want to know this with a recently caught Seadra, you'll have to evolve it to know.

Generally saying, if your Pokémon has two abilities which are temporarily lost during the evolution stages, it will get the same ability once it's able to. It's like a fixed value of some sort.

I'm stuck....

Okay, in Kanto I'm trying to get to Pewter City, but I can't unless I wake up the Snorlax, which I can't do unless I have the Blue Flute, which according to Bulbapedia is in Viridian Forest, which I can't get to 'cause of the Snorlax...arrgh. How do I get that thing to wake up?

You have to do the Power Plant side quest in order to gain the EXPN Card at the Radio Tower in Lavender. The Pokéflute is a manual channel.

The quest:

First you must visit the Power Plant. The man there will tell you that a part has been stolen. Go to Cerulean and visit the gym. A Team Rocket member will run away. Follow him to Nugget Bridge and battle him. He'll then tell you he hid the part in the gym. You can find the part in the top rubber rings.

Take the part back to the Power Plant and the power will go on again.

Now go to Lavender and talk to someone in the Radio Tower. You will get the EXPN card for your Pokégear. The Pokéflute channel can be found by moving the circle to the top of the ring.

In addition to this, you can now activate the Magnet Train. Someone near the station will tell you about Copycat losing her doll. Go to the fan club in Vermillion and take the Clefairy doll. When you leave the building, Steven Stone will tell you about the red or blue roaming Pokémon. Now take the doll to Copycat in Saffron and she will give you a Magnet Pass.

Quest: Done.
Result: EXPN Card, Magnet Pass, Access to [email protected]

(As I understand it) Ghost has a x2 weakness to Dark. This makes Karen especially hard, and so your best option is to be a higher level than her (by a LOT) and keep using moves of types that her Pokémon have some weakness.

Geo_mani April 25th, 2010 8:50 AM

Renege April 25th, 2010 8:51 AM

What don't you like about your current team?

empty streets April 25th, 2010 8:55 AM

Your team will almost always be boring until you have a chance to breed/EV train what you desire -_-

JoelxD April 25th, 2010 8:57 AM

There all to weak and dont kill very easily especially Sunkern he sucks

Sorry guys brb dinner :)
Ill be back soon

Renege April 25th, 2010 9:00 AM

If you don't like Sunkern, dispose of it. They're going to be weak, unless you train them.

myrrh25 April 25th, 2010 9:02 AM

Dispose of Sunkern, OR get yourself a Leaf Stone from the PokeAthlon..

Xyrin April 25th, 2010 10:18 AM

Just change your current team. It'll be easier. Just swithc the sucky ones. Or grind like heck.

Porygon3 April 25th, 2010 10:38 AM

If you are at the Lighthouse that means you still have a little more trainers coming up before your next badge (Chuck). Chuck has Fighting/Water Pokemon so I would suggest you train your Sunkern instead of getting rid of it. You will going on to a water route with some trainers which is good training. You may also want to do what myrrh25 said and get a leaf stone at the PokeAthlon. Just try not to get rid of Mega Drain/Solarbeam. As for the Fighting Type of your next Gym, I recommend you weaken them down with Pidgeotto if you can, and finish them off with Feraligatr. Then when you head back to face your sixth gym (after you healed Amphy) you will be up against Steel/Ground/Thunder Pokemon. Your newly trained Sunkern or Feraligatr should be able to take care of Steelix. But for the other 2 Magnemites, avoid using Feraligatr and Pidgeotto. Try tracking down a fire Pokemon. I believe there are some Growlithes in Route 36/37. Or if you caught Sudowoodo, he can be useful against the Magnemites too.

Negative-Zero April 25th, 2010 10:52 AM

does anybody know a good place to catch dittos?

Xyrin April 25th, 2010 10:54 AM

I'm confused... I caught a Geodude in the Safari zone for the Warden. I brought it to him and put it in the front of my party and he just tells me to get one and show him it...


Wait... Sorry. I got it mixed up with another geodude.

Route 47 after Waterfall can be used or right outside the Daycare Center.

Route 47 has a 40-50% chance, Route 36 has 10%.

Mimikyu402 April 25th, 2010 1:00 PM
