Protip: Don't give your rival the Tepig in B2/W2. The final battle against him has you fighting his Emboar...which can easily OHKO things using Flamethrower. Nearly wiped my entire team, though thankfully Gothitelle has such stellar defenses.
But Drilbur is immune to Electric, so that example doesn't exactly work. Set a Magnemite in front of her, and Sonicboom to your heart's content.ELESA
In both BW B2W2 she just crushes my team. Emolga in general is just freaking annoying!
"Emolga! Drilbur, use rock throw!"
*volt switches to zebstrika*
Drilbur! Use mud slap!
*Volt switches to emolga*
FUUUUUUUUUUUUU...
Not to mention she can crush all three starters. Pignite and snivy fall to emolga's air attacks, and Oshawott of course is fried.
Plus, Flaafy is the Paralyze QUEEN
Not to mention in my B2 game, I was using Genesect as my main... and zeb has a fire attack...

The first time I played Red, I went with a Squirtle. When I fought Misty, Wartortle and Starmie had an absolute epic of a fight, trading bite for tackle. It as brutal.I beat Misty's Starmie with my Beedrill, only one or two levels higher than it. I outsped and OHKO'd with Twineedle. (although one of the hits may have been a crit). Just saying.
Too bad Beedrill sux ballz overall and there's no way I'd want to grind one to a higher level than Misty's Starmie, let alone feed it trainer experience to get there. If I'm going to waste that much early game time/experience, I'd rather invest it in a Magikarp, which will kill Misty and the rest of the game too lol.I beat Misty's Starmie with my Beedrill, only one or two levels higher than it.

Yeah but Twineedling Erikas whole gym is fun as hell.Too bad Beedrill sux ballz overall and there's no way I'd want to grind one to a higher level than Misty's Starmie, let alone feed it trainer experience to get there.

this was my battle against cherenOk, seriously, am I the only one who suffered this much against Cheren?
I lost 7+ times in my JPN copy, and barely won with a crit in my ENG copy.
[Granted I could've used T-wave/Growl spam Mareep but I had some self-imposed restrictions; doesn't change the fact that i got annihilated in my JPN copy]
I find it weird since my two younger brothers got past him like it was nothing. How come they didn't get destroyed by that Work Up + Tackle Lilipup and I did? So embarrassing...
Cheren seems to have exactly two outputs:
1. People beat him with complete ease. Maybe they're lowering stats, maybe through sheer power, maybe through luck. There are no issues
2. People are destroyed by him. Repeatedly!
There is no middle ground
The last sentence is false; I had 5 Pokemon to take in against Cheren on Normal Mode, only won 2-0 after a tough encounter prolly because the three who fainted were under-levelled relative to the ones who survived, but w/e), Snivy & Lillipup so strong...Just saying.Cheren seems to have exactly two outputs:
