>>55049388I'm so gracious that I'll tell you what I have boxed (excluding HM slaves) AND my thoughts on them
>Lv. 2 Zubatlol
>Lv. 6 WooperI won't call him bad, he just doesn't interest me. at the time, I had Gastly, my starter, and was planning on using Kadabra. Wooper wasn't a priority at the time. I still don't feel like I need him.
>Lv. 7 EkansNidoking is my main guy. what do I need another poison-type for?
>EggTogepi's level up movepool is complete trash IIRC. you need TMs to make it any good, but even then, I'm not that impressed.
>Lv. 12 Drowzeeactually, Drowzee is not that bad since he gets Elemental Punches with ease in this gen but I'm already doing that with Nidoking. you know, I found two shiny of these in different playthroughs? one casual, one nuzlocke but it wasn't my first encounter, so I killed it.
>Lv. 6 ParasI love gen 1 to death but paras is just so objectively bad that even Spore cannot save it
>Lv. 7 CaterpieI mean, Butterfree ain't bad for catching support but investing in it would deprive my team of EXP
>Lv. 10 MagikarpI used Gyrados for my Gen 1 Nuzlocke. I wanna use other pokes.
>Lv. 14 Koffingno thunderbolt in silver. no fireblast until post game/Kanto (Blaine). flamethrower is not a TM in gen 2 for some reason. love him tho
>Lv. 20 Poliwagno water stone pre-post game because gamefreak said so. also, I wouldn't be able to get the water stone anyway since Paras was my Azalea forest encounter.
>Lv. 26 GravelerI beat my gen 1 nuzlocke with him so I don't want to use him yet again. I was only using him until I could get Nidoking. I don't need 2 ground types with overlapping weaknesses either.
>Lv. 4 Rattatakek
>Lv. 15 Shucklelol
>Lv. 20 Tentacruelalready have a poison type in Nidoking. Tentacruel is objectively good but no Ice Beam sucks.
>Lv. 20 Goldeenrofl
>Lv. 13 Machopsuper shallow level up movepool. no access to Rock Slide in gen 2. not good at elemental punching. overlapping weakness with Nidoking.
>Lv. 23 GolbatNidoking
