Good idea, OP.
Slowbro is close enough for me. Was a prominent member of the team of a family member who introduced me to RB, as well as my own thanks to the option to fish for one in the League entryway after the Rainbow badge (that I will forever be peeved Game Freak removed in later Kanto games). And my dad liked it so much that it became the "stand-in Pokemon name", rather than Pikachu. Happy to see it was a very effective Pokemon, and GSC made Slowpoke available early on to be appreciation.
Alas they are so dopey I'm not quite sure I would do with it beyond using the Shellder as a rest while crossing bodies of water. Don't have any telekinetic antics immediately in mind.
Although I would love to see if Liligant could get it dancing. Perhaps inspiration will strike more often.
>>44694265A story like that can make any Pokemon worthwhile.
>>44694385Why snakes? Curious.
