Post yours. Or do you guys just masturbate to the girls and not play the games?

First time playing Crystal and just arrived to Ecruteak.
Bayleef, Geodude, and Quagsire are carrying the game at the moment, Cleffa refuses to evolve, Drowzee is fun but hits like a wet tissue in real battles, and Furret is starting to fall off.
How are Growlithe and Teddiursa at this point of the game? I'll try evolving Cleffa later if I have the time to run on my bike for an hour but if that doesn't work I'll just go get a Teddiursa and replace Furret with Growlithe.
