*Topic*
Just wondering because my friends keep telling me my Pokemon are weak.
Venusaur- Lvl. 40 something.
Flarion- Lvl 33.
Gyrados- Lvl. 33.
Alakazam- Lvl. 36
Gengar- Lvl. 35
Sandshrew- Lvl. 6 (Need to use him for Cut)
Should I catch more and train or train the Pokemon I have?

I think it was this: (This was back in September)

Primeape ~ Lv. 46
Charizard ~ Lv. 50
Electrode ~ Lv. 45
Nidoking ~ Lv. 50
Fearow ~ Lv. 50

I train hard, mind you...
