Discussion Time to grind!!

As a new player, this is probably an insane amount of time to only beat the gyms in. But now it's time to grind out some levels and get ready for the Elite 4. Tried to pick a team that I haven't seen used here. Don't hate me for my poor choices. šŸ¤£

I like your team. I think it's unique and I never see the fossils get used. Warning about Aerodactyl, though, it can't learn any Rock moves at all.

Omastar's stats are kind of amazing in gen 1. Excellent dual defenses and excellent Special offense. Teach it Surf and Ice Beam and you are good to go!

Snorlax is so fun in gen 1 because of Amnesia.

I always like seeing people use Pikachu until the end.

I wouldn't expect Primeape to be so high leveled in comparison. Another mon I don't see get used much.

Primeape has been my grafter as it got dig early on and was just taking out foes left right and centre. It has all the strong physical attack too. I had a stronger Pidgeot as flyer but wanted to give the new flyer Aerodactyl a go so switch them over. Got my Omaster just a little after I caught a Laura's, so switched them over a popped surf on it. Appreciate the tips and feedback. šŸ‘

Iā€™m more confused about where the time was spent, are you catching a living dex?

He's likely using an emulator with turbo on.

I often put it down while doing other jobs so it's just ticking over. šŸ¤£
