that's what i did, pokemon master joe. i taught my mankey mega kick, which defeats staryu in one hit, then i got lucky on starmie by confusing it with kadabra's confusion... she is really freakin tough... and butterfree was useless in my case, because even though it was around level 26, it would get ko'd by one water pulse, or it would have about 6 hp but get confused by the water pulse and kill itself... :dead: :surprised basically, the best strategy is to get lucky... :\
