I have the first 9 Badges. I'm about to fight Sabrina.
Lapras: Lv.62
Weavile: Lv.62
Jolteon: Lv.61
Typhlosion: Lv.54 (I'll grind with him later)
Xatu: Lv.61
Alakazam: Lv. 52 (I'll also grind with him later)
I need some advice. I replaced my Gengar with the Weavile because I needed a Dark Pokemon to help me against Sabrina. Afterwards, should I put my Gengar back on?
Also, I was thinking of taking away my Lapras (I already have another Ice Type), and replacing it with a Poliwrath. There's a problem though. I caught a Poliwag in Violet City, leveled it to Lv.25, so it evolved into a Poliwhirl. I then give it a Water Stone, but it doesn't evolve into a Poliwrath. Is it possibly because I used the EXP Multiplier Cheat to level it up faster? Also, the Water Stone was Pokesav'd in.
I wanted a Poliwrath as opposed to a Lapras because I wanted to have as many different types as I could on my team. But it refuses to evolve. I am WAY too lazy to spend the time grinding with my Poliwag + Obtaining a Water Stone legitly. Anyone have any ideas for a good Water Pokemon at this point? I really like Lapras as a Pokemon, but I want as much diversity as possible. I will eventually get a Totodile from a friend of mine, but that could not be for a while, so I need a Water Type now.
Any and all suggestions welcome.
P.S. I don't care at all about "best stats" or anything like that, I'm not gonna be competing or anything. I would like some information about Water Pokemon that learn good moves (but I don't mean SMOGON style movesets, that involve strategy, I play for fun).
TL;DR - Recommend me a Water Type Pokemon that's not a Lapras or Poliwag (or it's evolved forms).
Thanks.
