  45. This assumes you would have gotten pony immediately on 2+2, that you would get big pony late on 3+1, and that you would have picked up Mansion stone and gotten big puppy late on 2+2. Also, we are not counting any potential benefits of having Starmie a level higher from Ted to Sabrina.

  47. When should you do it?
  48. -If you don't have Rhyhorn coming out of Rock Tunnel, do it no matter what
