>Falker is Flying (both)>>>Bugsy is Bug (both>Whitney punishes the starter being 87.5% male>Morty uses the whole Gengar line, all of which are part Poison (both)>Jasmine is Steel (resist)>Pryce is Ice (effective)>Clair is Dragon (resist)>later on have to deal with Koga (poison) and Lance (half-Dragon, half Flying)Until the rest of the Elite 4 and especially the Kanto saga, the only break you get through this gauntlet is Chuck, who has one neutral in Primeape you can tank out because 80/100/100, and a Poliwrath you can actually take advantage of from its Water typing.
