It's not even really that hard to raise more than one Pokemon in Crystal, unless you're trying to rush to the end or something. Anyway, I caught a Hoppip and I want to use Skiploom on my team. Who should I switch out for it?

It's less that it's hard and more just time consuming

Swap Poliwag, since you already have a water type.

Almost like this was a complete lie spread by Joe and other shills in an attempt to make the best Generation look bad.

I guess, yeah, you probably wouldn't wanna do all that crap in one sitting, but in just a few hours I've given my Sentret and Zubat pretty ridiculous gains. Poliwag got a level too. I think Sentret was like level 3 when I started playing this morning, and I've been to do other stuff. Not even work, just buying food, watching videos, and saving pics.

You don't really need two water types, and also you don't really need three flying types.
My vote is either zubat or poliwag getting the boot.
However, if you want to use poliwrath over feraligatr he's pretty good. I don't care for zubat line much, crobat is awesome sure, but the road there is so annoying cause zubat BLOWS and golbat isn't much better.
Don't you DARE drop sentret or togepi

He also already has a Flying-Type in Zubat and will have another one from Togepi once it evolves meaning half his team will be Flying-Types.

Totodile's holdin an Everstone, can't really decide if I want him to keep it or if I want to give it to Skiploom. I'm torn on who to keep between Totodile and Poliwag because I like Poliwhirl and all his evolutions.

Also ye, Sentret was never gonna get the boot. I wanted Furret to be my main mon this playthrough. Took me till after Falkner to get one but idc. I spent a lot of time training it up.

You do not want to not evolve hoppip all the way, take a look at his stats. If you go all the way to jumpluff he's not OP or anything, just becomes better at what skiploom already does, leech seed sleep spam. He's actually a really fun mon, I love using hoppip line.
Just boot zubat dawg, he's easily the worst pokemon on your team
>>48489691
I did the same my last time through crystal, furret line starts a bit slow but he becomes pretty good especially because you can get a very strong STAB move and dig fairly early.

Overall I have to commend you, your choices are top notch on this team.
Personally I would go with:
>totodile
>poliwag
>hoppip
>togepi
>sentret
Kino team. Making pic made me want to play gen 2, fuck I love the sprites.

I never use Zubat, and I like how Skiploom looks better than Jumpluff, but I like your pic so that's likely what I'll do. Thanks for the recs. Good luck with your playthrough Crystalbro.

If you wanna keep skiploom its fine honestly, just don't expect him to take many hits. You gotta hit those sleep powders!
I personally like how every mon in the hoppip line looks.
If you've never used zubat that's fine to use him, sure. He becomes very good and a cool design with crobat, but just know that he truly is complete ass until you evolve him to crobat. He doesn't get a STAB move until level 30 which is basically endgame with crystal.

I taught Togepi Flash. Hopefully it comes in handy for switch/debuff tactics.

As soon as you beat Morty and get Surf, go right to Mahogany, and do the whole Lake of Rage and Rocket Hideout thing. When you've cleared out Rocket from Mahogany go back to the gate on Route 43 and the guard will give you Sludge Bomb.

Yeah togetic is a great support mon and it learns fly, very helpful. Flash isn't a bad move to have for sure.

It doesn't learn sludge bomb in gen 2

Honestly if you optimize your friendship gainz and just keep your exp share on zubat, you can have a crobat with wing attack by level 28 (zubat learns this at 27) and absolutely fuck Chuck into next week with it, but you can do the same damn thing with literally any flying or psychic move.

Respect. I've always liked the guy but never used it because you can't catch Slugma until Kanto. Plus I usually pick Cyndaquil so my fire type needs are filled.

Lately I have been doing runs with pokemon you can only get endgame. I did emerald with beldum and once I did crystal with murkrow, they were fun runs.
Cyndaquil is definitely a bro. Hopefully he's not as bad as he looks...

Thanks lads. Just started the run, my eggs are safely tucked into my PACK and Totodo is resting at the Violet City pond while Eve, my hoppip, scouts the surrounding routes for berries.
Might challenge the gym here today, I think my gator will have the edge.

Now replace Totodile with Jinx and you're good to go. Keep resetting the odd egg until you get a shiny smoochum.

lookin' good anon. Last Crystal I bred and traded a Lickitung. Needed a Sixth after getting to the E4 so I traded over my champion Farfetch'd from Yellow to dive bomb some Dragonite.
Octillary is such a cool 'mon.

Mariguana was stolen wholesale from Clover, play it for great inspo. Shiny 'sparce was hacked in, I won't try to brag about it. Hitmonlee was an Odd Egg hatch though.
