Train pickachu that high that it would be able to defeat him.. OR take the easier route and catch a nidoran or mankey.
|
I was very young when I got Yellow (and it was my first Pokémon game), so I couldn't really decide on what to do when I couldn't beat Brock, it didn't really occur to me that a Nidoran could be strong as well, or a Caterpie, so I just level'd my Pikachu as high as I could in that area (probably wasn't any higher than lvl 15 lol) and until he learned Slam, and used that to defeat him eventually. But it was always after a lot of tries, since I partly depended on luck, like getting critical hits or having them miss attacks.
|
I was 6.
I didn't even understand english back then. My Trainer's name was AAAAAAAA. I caught a Pidgey and turned him into a Pidgeotto, and next thing I know, I find the game 10 years later and I have a level 43 Pidgeot, Level 15 Pikachu and zubats, and caterpies... BEFORE beating the 4th Gym. |
I believe I caught a Nidoran and leveled it up until it learned double kick.

-Slam -Double Team -T-wave -T-Shock/Quick Attack or even Tail Whip if you want to drop his defense. Keep D-Team on Brock's Geodude 'til you maxed it and use Slam on Geodude and Onix. It won't take that long and you'll easily beat them. |
I remember tackling the **** out of Brock with mah trusty Caterpie.
Used Nidoran male, end of story XD |
Legit game: Mankey
Glitch game: Long range trainer glitch/Experience underflow level 100 Nidoking |
I've gone many routes, but I normally caught a Nidoran. I went the Mankey route once. I hate Pikachu... He was so useless in that game. I think I only used him against Misty.
|
I grinded Pikachu and beat it with quick attacks lol
|
I always caught a caterpie, then raised it to level 10 to get a butterfree, then my butterfree automatically learns "confusion", and thats what I used to defeat brock
I will say though, i read a couple of comments and i cant help but to think why people didnt use pikachu, he sucks at first but once I properly train up til the pokemon leauge, i have found him to be one of my best pokemon. |
My very first time I played Yellow, I was really little, so I didn't know what to expect. I just had my Pikachu, a Nidoran female, and a Butterfree. I quickly figured out a level 14 Pikachu was useless against Brock's pokemon and just double kicked + confusion'd his pokemon to death. x3
|
I just spammed Quick Attack while using Potions whenever I needed to. It took a good 30 minutes, but it worked XD
|
When i first played yellow as a kid i did it the dumb way by training pikachu up to like 25 or something when i recently played yellow i did it the smart way and got a butterfree
|
Tododile and charmander cuz of Feraligatr (look @ my avatar, DUH lol). But Pickachu is still my top. got him to 16 b4 i beat brock!

Nidoran's ideal for beating Brock. Too bad I broke my Yellow....
:cer_frown::cer_no::cer_cry: |
I remember a childhood friend quit the Pokémon series altogether as he couldn't get past Brock. Somehow he managed to train Pikachu to level 40-something by raw failure... resulting in win. The poor feller still didn't literally win.. :3
If I recall correctly, in my first Yellow I used the typical Pidgey as a shield to defeat Geodude and weaken Onix, then when he/she faints I switch out to Pikachu to get my EXP :D. |
I'm playing Yellow on my iPod, and, even though I haven't even gotten to Pewter City yet, I'm training a Pidgey, Mankey, and Nidoran♂.
|
Mankey, which seems to be the popular answer here. I used a Nidoran only once, but I'm not a fan -__- I trained my Pikachu until he was hella strong, though, so it wasn't a tough battle even though my Mankey didn't last through it.
|
When I was little I just used Pikachu with quick attack and slam. I don't think I ever tried it with anything else. But when I played Yellow again over the summer, I was a much smarter me, and just caught a nidoran for double kick on onix and a butterfree for confusion on geodude.
|
I loved the way you had to have Pikachu it was an unexpected and new twist! I also liked the fact that you could get Bulbasaur, Squirtle & Charmander too.. but that was only found out once Id played a second time
|
I know I used Butterfree. In the end, I only had 4 guys on my team, two of them being Pikachu and butterfree.
|
I just kept Pikachu. I gave it a bit of steroids, ran with it a bit, then bam, Onix is down.
|
i used only butterfree. its confusion was doing great against brock's rockheads.
