...i used pikachu,
nothing else :) |
I rasied Pikachu to Lv 12 and used Quick Attack to beat Onix :)
|
I refused to use Pikachu when I battled Brock. I caught a Caterpie and a Nidoran, trained them, and evolved them. My Pikachu was at L25 (?) when I battled Misty. Piece of cake. :P
|
The first time I played through, I'm pretty sure I just kept trying with Pikachu over and over (not even bothering to level up in between fights--Yellow was my first game) until I got frustrated and bugged my parents to let me use the internet to figure out what to do (back when we had Dial-up, too, so I couldn't just go on whenever I wanted). I then used Butterfree pretty much every time (and usually by the time I figured out Butterfree sucked, I was too attached to the thing to let it go--I believe I still had it with me when I faced the Elite 4 in several games). I think I've used Nidoran a couple of times (now that would be my Pokémon of choice, though), and I don't think I've ever used Mankey.
|
I don't remember what I did. Last I played Yellow was years and years ago. I do know I was an absolute Pikachu fanatic at the time (Though less of one than today.) and I first tried the battle with only Pikachu. I don't remember the outcome. All I really remember of Yellow was having fun with Thundershocking Pidgeys! Man, I did that every time. xD It was like an obsession of mine, I kid thee not.
|
I trained up Pidgey to Pidgeotto and I forget if Quick Attacked Brock to fainting or if I gusted it. Considering I hadn't touched Yellow in six months excluding a few days ago(The day I started playing again <3)
|
As soon as my Metapod became Butterfree I would use it to beat Brock. Other than that, I was once so clueless I trained Pikachu til' it knew Slam which was a huge waste of time...
|
I always caught a Nidoran and had it learn Double-Kick. Usually my final team consisted of Pikachu, Nidoking, the three Starters, and Snorlax.
|
i used Butterfree and Nidoran
|
my solution
During the time I've played Yellow, I've used Butterfree and Mankey for battling Brock (mostly Butterfree though). I've found Butterfree's Confusion to work particularly well since both Geodude and Onix have particularly low special stats (remember, this was before the Special stat was split into Special Attack and Special Defense-with Generation II).
Early on, I thought the solution was to trade for a Bulbasaur (or any other Grass Pokémon) or Squirtle (or any other Water Pokémon) from Red or Blue. |
I always get a Pidgey and train it up so that it has sand-attack. I then sand-attack both of the pokemon until their accuracy can't drop anymore. Then I just use Pikachu to kill them since they can't hit me.
|
I trained up Caterpie to Butterfree. With the attack confusion it was a easy fight.
|
While I have beaten Brock with only Pikachu before(using double team 6 times then tail whip 6 times then keep spamming quick attack) there has been times where I just get myself a Butterfree and hope I get lucky with confusion.
|
Looking through this thread, I'm surprised I'm the only one that uses Pidgey. Pretty much all of my friends do it now too because of me.
|
I used Nidoran and raised him up as well, finally managed to get over Brock.
|
I catch a caterpie, evolve him into a butterfree and raise him until about level 14-15 before i take on brock.
|
i just get a lvl 11 butterfree and kill him easy
|
I used a Mankey which I deposited later on. My first strategy, however, was to train a Butterfree until it learns Confusion, but that was on an emulator before I bought the game, then I couldn't be bothered to do it as it took too long.
|
I would always use Butterfree's confusion
|
I'm pretty sure I just caught a Pidgey and levelled it up :)
|
butterfree was the one that took him out.
Man,yellow was awesome |
After dozens of Failures with Pikachu
I asked My brother and he said go look for another one in Viridian Forest I caught a Caterpie, and then I took it out to the grass below Pewter City at the top of Route 2 to train it up. Eventually I got it up to Level 30 and Took my Butterfree to the Gym (because I knew it had learned confusion by then, I had a feeling that it could beat Brock) Then I challenged him, both Geodude and Onix were down, I had Won, Brock gave the Boulder Badge -that's the story of how I beat Brock for the First time on Pokemon Yellow (And to Last November, I thought that the best achievementon that game till I beat the Elite Four and So- called Champion about 5/6 Years after beating Brock) Back to Present... But Now: I use Mankey because it can learn Low Kick at Lv:9! |
I would always catch a Caterpie in Viridian Forest and raise it until it evolved into Butterfree...:pokeball:
|
When battling Brock, all I did was spam Double Team until he almost never hit me,
then spammed Quick Attack. Worked fine for me, and I never had a problem! :D -totodile42 |
Nidoran Female > Level 9/11 > Double Kick > Win :)
