もう、16種類じゃない!

I liked playing through as Machop because linked Focus Energy + Karate Chop is a OHKO machine on most dungeon fodder, Bullet Punch has a two panel range to soften approaching enemies, and I bought a Rock Tomb TM to round out coverage and inflict speed reduction. Even though most bosses are Flying type, they don't SPAM Flying moves. It also helps that the Magnemite you automatically get is a beast that crushes Flying types. I chose Totodile as a partner. No regrets. I'd bump Machop to B-tier.

If you want an actual challenge i suggest doing a playthrough with Machop as your Main person with Bulbasaur as your partner. Try not to use any additional partners either. I've just replayed the story on my new switch with this set up and my words i spent half of my time trying to get through lapis cave and sky tower. Machop has an unfair advantage against all but one of the bosses you fight (That being Groudon, 2 if you count the Mankey Gang which can still kick your ass)

>>7 Delcatty is still pure normal. So Sylveon does have a very unique type in this game.

to be honest, I don't like to use attract. Yes I will have Skitty in one or two playthroughs and yes with double slap but I just don't like attract at all. It makes the game to easy and I always want a challenge and attract just takes it away. The only time I used attract was in the explorers series due to gender being a huge part in battle. that way you had to use strategy and skill in order to beat bosses instead of using attract all the time.

>>13 I evolved mine into a Magnezone! pretty cool huh, some GEN IVs are available in the remake which is awesome! We need a DLC!

Eevee ftw! Wish I could partner him up Eevee up with Skitty I don't care if its going to be hard let me do it :3

>>12 magnemite wont be there for long though you will be a fugitive and absol will eventually join far stronger than magnemightttt

>>11 Yeah I have Ice Beam and Flamethrower on my starters, it got worse when magnemite joined with signal beam nothing can touch us im just flyng through the ranks

I have a Skitty and a Mudkip then I got steamroll from a DX Gummi. don't mind us, we're just Ice Beaming the hell out of everybody LOLXD

>>6 Yup and you have the other useful orbs to try and disable the bosses. not worth the extra moveslot. coverage is ultra important in the main story

>>8 Yeahh it doesn't learn much good moves but the Refresh is really good. Saved my bum a lot. I ran the story with eevee and evolved it into a Flareon

Not sure about Eevee being in A-tier, it kinda fell off offensively in the latter part of the main story

>>2 Yup and it evolves to Delcatty, one of the few Fairies in the game woww!!!! oh yeah and dont forget sylveon. but you cant choose both eevee and skitty so..

They nerfed Smokescreen quite a lot. I've had troubles making it hit and as it is not an offensive move, i cannot raise its accuracy. I had fun times back then using a skitty attract build and a charmander smokescreen. Bosses were a walk in the park hahaha

>>4 I have an issue with that though ':( it cancels out ALL weather in the room so my Groudon cant do 1-turn solar beams. quite annoying lmao.

>>3 Yeah and Psyduck has CLOUD NINE I didnt worry about the hail and Sandstorms in the post game.

Yup the multi-hit moves are still so powerful!!!!!!!! its amazing how easily u can take down bosses. Im running the game with Psyduck and Charmander and im having a really easy time :)

>>1 Skitty isnt as good as before. Cute Charm and Attract dont whack the hell out of bosses anymore but yeah still pretty good because of STAB double slap.
