Appendix:Red and Blue walkthrough/Section 9: Difference between revisions

By this point, {{ga|Blue}} has assembled a team that includes {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, and {{t|Water}} Pokémon to cover his weaknesses. His [[Starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] takes the place of either {{p|Exeggcute}}, {{p|Growlithe}}, or {{p|Gyarados}}, whichever matches its type. His {{p|Pidgeotto}} still poses little threat, as it has no {{type|Flying}} moves and those it has are fairly weak. Exeggcute can induce {{status|Sleep}} with {{m|Hypnosis}}, so use [[Awakening]]s as necessary. Growlithe's {{m|Ember}} can deal a decent amount of damage and may cause a {{status|Burn}}. His Gyarados has the biggest offensive presence with {{m|Hydro Pump}}, so be sure to take it down quickly. {{p|Kadabra}} takes super effective damage only from {{t|Bug}} moves, but physical moves will wear it down as well. Blue's first Pokémon has grown to level 25 and learned some new moves, but it should not be too much to handle. Use super effective moves to send your rival packing and continue up the tower.
