Supreme Edgeboy Max said:Just think about the people who got Chikorita as starter. Only a Growlithe (in Crystal), or another Pidgeotto on your own side would help.
Not to mention Poliwag's useless without Ice Punch in that gym.
So yeah. A proper Pidgeotto's unfair.
not to mention Mud-slap is super-effective against Geodude.charizard_maa said:That true but if I remember rigth. Falkner's birds know the TM Mud Slap which lowers the acc of your pokemon. THen Geodude's Rock Throw would miss and making it a harder battle and annoying. Imangen just telling your Geodude to use Rock Throw only to see it miss for the 4th time and then getting hit with another Mud Slap.
