Further along Route 22, you'll find your rival. Make sure to heal up before battling him. This battle is completely optional but it is still a good source of experience points and cash as well as good practice for the big battle coming up. | Further along Route 22, you'll find your rival.

His {{p|Pidgey}} shouldn't be a threat and unless you started out with {{p|Charmander}} your rival's starter won't know any of its elemental moves (unless you count {{m|Leech Seed}} but it's not a direct attack move so nothing to worry about) so {{p|Bulbasaur}} or Charmander, depending on which one your rival has, shouldn't be a pain to take out. {{p|Squirtle}}, on the other hand, knows {{m|Bubble}} which can easily KO your Charmander so use another one of your (hopefully) trained Pokémon to faint the pesky turtle. | His {{p|Pidgey}} shouldn't be a threat and unless you started out with {{p|Charmander}}, your rival's starter won't know any of its elemental moves (unless you count {{m|Leech Seed}} but it's not a direct attack move so nothing to worry about) so {{p|Bulbasaur}} or Charmander, depending on which one your rival has, shouldn't be a pain to take out. {{p|Squirtle}}, on the other hand, knows {{m|Bubble}} which can easily KO your Charmander so use another one of your (hopefully) trained Pokémon to faint the pesky turtle. | ||
