I meant a Fissure or Horn Drill.

Fissure might work, but Horn Drill would likely just kill Pidgeot before we'd get to pull off the mirror move.

Instant KO moves automatically fail if the target is faster and Pidgeot will definitely be faster than Rhydon.

Why are so many people spamming "down" in the chat right now? We need to surf "up", not "down".

I think they're all bots.

Speaking of which I'm surprised no one coded a bunch that inputted the opposite command the chat is spamming. (EG. Down if people are spamming UP, B if people are spamming A or Start.)

Nah. I don't think it's that many bots. Even a bot can only spam down once every thirty seconds. I just think it's a mixture of people trolling and people overthinking things.

After all, you do have to navigate down when you get into the menu.

Mods banned 150+ bots spamming up when we were in Pallet Town a day or so ago. This is the same thing.

Theres a bunch typing 'down' -> ' down' (spacedown). Sure it could be assholes but they did it trying to get to Cinnabar.

Just surf and walk back. Which is probably more of a challenge then Blaine, you didn't miss much. :3:

Well he has ground/rock pokemon which will resist thunder, and the rock types will also be a pain to kill with our normal type attacks, which we have a bunch of.

Pretty much.

Giovanni's gym has mainly ground-types, which is a bit of a problem for Zapdos, but Zapdos is also immune to ground-moves, so it's got that going for it.

We also will face down a Normal type, rock types, fighting types and poison types.

Left was the best move on the platform. Since if we surf we'll go to the left where up/down/left will keep us in the water.

I spent a lot of time in this patch of grass in Gold trying to catch a Tangela, so it brings back some memories for me.

Isn't that patch of grass below Pallet the only place to find a Tangela?

It would be amazing if they blacked out here.

It kinda feels like they forgot Tangela existed so they just put him in his own square of grass at the end/beginning of the main town journey. I don't blame them I frequently forgot it existed back then too.

If you pull really hard on the end of a Tangela's vine it spins around and collapses into a pile containing one very long vine, sneakers, and a pair of googly eyes.

Posted when they were in the water, to the right of the platform. :ssh: Made the entire thing super tense of trying not to go back on that damned platform.
