I really felt like I was exploring a region, because I would always have to go through routes multiple times, and was forced to really learn where I was going. It didn't feel all that tedious either, though that may have just been me, and I'm sure that other people would find it absolutely infuriating.

I try to wait till the 30s to let it evolve so that it learned moves faster. I think lvl 36 is a good level.

    6:36 I would argue Dodrio is better. You get it around fly, it can learn Tri Attack which is very good for normal coverage, it can get drill peak as well and it has 20 more points in attack with barely any state of Ferrows being better and if they are it's by 5 points. Also while level 31 might be rough let me remind you that Dodo can learn fly to so yeah I would say Dodrio is a way better option especially if you have an electric type already like you would in yellow.

      Gale Wings is it’s hidden ability so you have to spend a bunch of time trying to get it which is even less convenient that friendship for Crobat.

    Two Questions.

    2: Could you do a list of Type-Specific teams? Basically similar to Gym Leaders and E4 members, you make a team composed of Pokémon that all share the same type. The only limitation, for the duel types, you can only use them with their primary type.
    Ex: If you choose Venusaur, you can only use it for the Grass list, Charizard for Flying, etc.
    The only exceptions to this are the Normal/Flying Pokémon, like Fearow.
    What do you think? Sound like a fun challenge?

      @@scraggylegends2185 sure it does, Doduo learns it the level before it evolves in fact. And it is by no means a joke, it has better 20 points more in attack, and the same speed stat as Fearow. Sure, it's a bit frailer, but who cares when you OHKO everything

    Just a correction: Golbat DOESN'T learn Fly in Gen III. However, the fact that you get it so early (PLUS the Soothe Bell is available in Slateport to help with the friendship) there is no away you won't have a Crobat when you reach Fortree City (also Crobat learns the amazing Sludge Bomb TM after the 5th Gym, which is physical in Gen III, so clear winner IMO)
    PS: Why wasn't Dodrio even mentioned in Gen I... it has 20 more Attack BST and is catchable in the EXACT SAME ROUTE you get Fly. The only downside is you only get it then while Spearow is very early game, but Spearow isn't particularly useful against the gyms prior

      @@justaveraeg generally? I can't argue against the early argument but Dodrio not only gets access to Drill Peck like Fearow but it also has Tri Attack which is physical in Gen I. Hyper Beam TM is a difficult to get prize in the Game Corner (and even so Dodrio has 20 more Attack) so Dodrio outclasses Fearow as a flying and as normal type
