Best Partner for Cyndaquil

Pokemon	Type
Skitty	Type 1: Normal Type 2:

Considering, Cyndaquil's weaknesses, Skitty is the best partner. With access to Charge Beam and Grass Knot from the beginning, Skitty starts out already covering Cyndaquil's weaknesses to Water-, Rock-, and Ground-type moves.

On top of that, Skitty also has access to a wide range of moves like Ice Beam that cover Pokemon types that Cyndaquil can't hit as hard.
