Back in Silver, originally, I did try to cut it.
In SoulSilver I knew better though. I caught it for once and only then discovered after all this time that it's a pure rock type, not grass-rock. I considered using it as it's quite a novelty, but decided to box it as I never really found much fondness for it. I might've used it back in Silver or Crystal if I did catch it then... I actually quite like it as a route-blocker due to how strange it is; the first time one ever encounters it, makes one wonder what it could be and how to oust it.
