Ugh. Good luck getting a decent Bulbasaur. They make you WORK for the Kanto starters if you don't have people trading you eggs out the gate.
Mild spoilers as to why this process will be annoying:
A local friend of mine already beat the game and is just going for a full Pokedex, and I'm still way early, but I did get a Charmander egg (female, lucky) from him.
So, to stay on topic, here's some poison points (see what I did there?):
- Gulpin doesn't really faint. He just kinda shrinks and it's funny. It's like watching Pac-Man die.
- Roselia horde is annoying. Might be the only time I've ever noticed the poison side of them.
- Not Poison related by holy geez there's a lot of Hoenn Pokemon in this game. That's good, iMO because it was always my favorite set, infamous Kanto Pokemon I hold closer to the heart aside.
- Speaking of, I saw a Nidoran horde on Tumblr. I know I'm odd so I'll just say I thought it was the cutest (and possibly most dangerous) thing ever.
- Also, the same friend who gave me an egg for like a Scatterbug (he's the type who doesn't really care what I give him) also gave me a Nidorina, Nidorino and let me borrow Ditto to make my own Nidos early, since he knows I'm nowhere near the point of catching them. In fact, I haven't gotten farther than the daycare! The female Nidoran is just so cute like a chubby hamster-bunny monster. I like how they handled the Nidoran family's models and animation in this game. So much more appealing and not antsy like the Stadium-esque animations.
Right now, I'm just trying to pass what few egg moves to Nidoran I can, then I'll raise that, and THEN I'll continue the adventure. Also, found Spritzee! Wonderful, can't wait to get that Aroma...thing. :3
*rereads the above* Yah no, I don't really add anything
specifically to the club. It's more of a coincedence that some of my favorites are "poison-but-not-really". I do more to just sort of talk about the fact that I like these handful than how they're useful or what moves they have. :D
