- EARLY GAME
- - Forest exp.:
- > Use only Pidgeotto for forest? Need to do this anyway if Pikachu dies
- > Use only Metapod for last Caterpie
- > Do not let Caterpie/Metapod die under any circumstances
- - Need about 17 Potions for Pikachu
- - Revisit Charmander exp.
- > The idea is to candy once early to make Surge and other fights better, then make up ~1700 exp. to get L38 in Silph
- > Consider doing Koga's gym before Silph (candy from 33-->38 after Jugglers)
- > Split exp. on all 3 Geodudes and the Drowzee, then fight the Bug Catcher AFTER Weepinbell to get L19
- > Fight Butterfree guy? Its moveset isn't too bad, and 685 exp. helps a lot
- > Can you afford to split exp. on Raticate? Faster than sacrificing slave (answer: No)
- > Get L23 for Surge? Can 2HKO with Dig and tank a MK or TB with good stats
- > Can fight 3x Voltorb guy (1323 exp.) to get L23 for Surge (24 with candy), but Dig PP is a problem
- > Can 3HKO Cubone with Ember at L25 (like 25-30% to lose though?)
- - Work on early money route (Poke Balls and Potions mainly)
- > Buy 1 Paralyz Heal in Viridian, and then more later? Then you can afford a 4th Potion
- > Buy Awakening in Pewter? Drowzee can be awful
- > Always buy 8 Potions in Cerulean?
- > Skip getting + selling TM45?
- > Buy 12 Super Potions? Can't afford more probably
- - Potions are tight on Nugget Bridge/Route 25/Dig Rocket... might need to center 1-2 times
- - Fight the RIGHT Gentleman, not the left
- - Need 219 exp. to get L23 for Surge (assuming split Raticate exp.)
- > Can also use 1 candy at some point
- MID-GAME
- - Erika should be +2 instead of +3 (unless terrible Special)
- - Dig Silph J&J's Arbok
- - Need to toss an item to make room for Silph candy
- LATE GAME
- - Cinnabar shopping:
- > Sell/use the last of your TM46/Guard Spec., Super Potions and Antidotes
- > Buy Ultra Balls instead of Great Balls
- > Don't buy Hyper Potions (or you can sell Full Restores to buy them)
- - Teach Fire Blast (this makes room for Fissure)
- > Lorelei: OHKO Jynx if needed for PP
- > Agatha: Golbat is an unfavorable range (and can get Super Potion if you miss it)
- > Lance: +4 OHKOs all except Gyarados and Dragonite
- > Champion: Exeggutor is a favorable range
- > So moveset is Fire Spin/Flamethrower/Fire Blast/Fissure
