>>37325066t. contrarian by the time you arrive at Claire your team should be already equipped to deal with Clair no prob
Whitney is more troublesome because of the overall speed, bulkyness, decent attack combined with annoying shit like Attract, Stomp flinch and Recovery PLUS the fact that you're still very early in the game and it's Johto so the distrubution is pretty bad and if you want to counter it you're forced to used either Geodude or Onix... or be aware that you can trade Drowzee for Machop which is actually not as ideal as the other two because it can still be attracted and stomped to death
