Trainer Tips:
For all the trainers playing Pokemon Gen1 for the first time!
- Special Atk. and Special Def. are bundled up into a single stat, so keep that in mind when deciding what Pokemon to use!
- There’s no breeding in these games, but there’s also no Effort Values, Natures, IVs, Abilities, or even gendered pokemon. So it’s not a big deal.
- Critical hits and One Hit-KO moves are based on a pokemon’s speed here! The faster the user the more likely they are to land!
- Psychic Types are broken as heck, Ghost moves are ineffective here, so get yourself a Starmie, Jynx, Hypno, or Alakazam (especially the latter two since they’re pure-psychic) if you’re having trouble!
- FOCUS ENERGY AND DIRE HIT DON’T WORK, they’re bugged and decrease your Crit. ratio instead of boosting it so avoid these moves like the plague!
- You can trick an NPC’s pokemon with non-damaging psychic moves (agility, amnesia) to spam their moves if you use a poison type!
- If you chose Charmander and are having a tough time against Brock, take advantage of his Onix’s Bide to decrease its stats (Sand-attack, Growl, Leer/Tail-whip). It unleashes nothing because you didn’t damage it and you can now chip away at it when it tries to use Screech or Tackle and spam the non-damaging moves when it’s using Bide.
If you’re experienced in Gen1, feel free to add stuff to this list to give a little hand to the new kids haha (or let them suffer, I guess… your choice XD)
8.The fast way to beat brock is to either train a butterfree up to know confusion or grab a mankey. Nindoran’s also work but need to be trained higher. Thrash is super broken on Nidoking remember so if you are going this route its done.
9. Go ahead and by that magicarp. Its worth training no matter how hard it is to train.
10. Misty is easy to beat if you catch an oddish or bellsprout. Watch out for peck from goldeen.
11. Dont forget there is a mew glitch that you have to do before you go take on Misty.
12.Caching a dugtrio makes it easy to beat Lt. Surge
13. When the guard says gee I’m thirsty, get him a drink from the large apartment building in Celadon. Make sure to go around to the back entrance eevee lovers.
14.Before going past your rival on the SS Anne make sure you have explored everywhere else. once you help the captain, the ship is gone.
15. Use Slash, Crabhammer, Razor Leaf, and Karate Chop. Due to some broken mechanics, they wind up critting eight times more often than other moves.
16. Always keep an Ice Heal. Freezing doesn’t happen often, but when it does, you won’t thaw out unless you use one or get hit by a fire move.
17. Blizzard has 90% accuracy. Spam the hell out of it if you have it.
18. You take a turn to wake up from sleep, so use sleep-inducing moves whenever possible.
19. Some types affect others differently. Bug and Poison are super effective against each other, Ice does 1x damage to Fire, and–as previously mentioned–Psychic-types are immune to Ghost. If a Pokemon is dual-typed, the text for type-effectiveness was often displayed incorrectly, though the proper amount of damage was applied.
20. Don’t use Rage. Just…don’t.
21. Some Pokemon (Dratini, Kangaskhan, Tauros, and especially Chansey) are a pain in the ass to get in the Safari Zone. There’s no reliable way to catch them, but I’d suggest throwing three rocks and then a ball. They’re likely to run away, but this is the best method I’ve found.
For all the others, just spam Safari Balls.22. Karate Chop, Bite, and Gust are all Normal-type in this generation. Dig is 100 power (for reference, it’s the same as Earthquake), but only Diglett and Dugtrio learn it by leveling up, so you’ll need to use a TM to give it to anything else. Keep in mind that TMs are one use only in this generation, and you can’t breed to spread them to other Pokemon. Wing Attack’s power is only 35, so stick with Quick Attack and Fly.
23. Softboiled is super useful especially for Victory Road, but it’s Chansey’s signature move…and you need a TM to learn it. Yeah, you read that right. You have to use Surf to get to a man on the other side of a little pond to get it.
24. There are no move relearners, so if your Pokemon evolves too late and misses one, you can’t get it back.
25. There are only five Moon Stones in the game, and four Pokemon need them to evolves. Be careful.
26. It’s possible to get a lvl1 Gengar without trading Haunter and before beating Brock.(similar to the Mew method)
27. If you plan on raising a Clefable do not evolve it as soon as you get a moon stone as it will not learn any new moves. Lvl to 48 then evolve to get that sweet Light Screen move.
28. Have the old man show you how to catch Pokemon, then fly to Cinnabar and surf up and down the eastern coast, in such a way that you don’t move to the right at all after you start surfing
29. Here’s the sweet reward for the Mew Glitch
30. There are no Dark or Steel types. Magnemite and Magneton are pure Electric.
31. there is no Exp share in this gen, put tough-to-level pokemon in the front of your party and switch to a stronger member after 1 turn. as long as the pokemon was in battle at some point it will gain exp. (always switch back in trainer battles when prompted.exp gain is per poke not per battle sequence)
It’s been a while, but isn’t there exp all? And it functions the same as the exp share in X and Y I believe
The EXP ALL is obtainable from one of Oak’s assistants, I believe west of Fuschia if you’ve obtained enough Pokemon.

10, 14, 18
10 Least favorite typing:
Ice type is probably my least favorite. I like the attacks, but there aren’t any ice types that I’ve ever really cared for or about.14: Cutest Pokemon:
Joltik, the fuzzy little bug-zapper
18: Opinion on Dark, Steel and Fairy typings since they weren’t included in the original 151
Seeing as I started with the original 151, I have absolutely no problem with any new typing, because the first generation was busted. Types are added in for balance, and that’s not a bad thing. If anything it’s a large part of what’s helped to keep Pokemon fresh and relevant for 20 years.

Because I’m intimately aware of how far Pokemon has come, and would rather not tarnish my memories of playing Blue and Yellow when I was a kid, I’m going to start up X again.
Vote for the starter(s) here -
I don't think anon realizes that art IS a job for some.
Clearly if someone can’t afford things like video games or a pass to Brony Con, it’s time to stop relying on art and go look for a better job
If an event comes up that would be very beneficial to your business, you go to your employer for help with attending that event. If issues come up with the means that you use to do your job, then you go to your employer to see that those issues are resolved. For an artist on tumblr their audience is effectively their employer, to whom they’re oftentimes providing free content. If the artist wants to give their audience a means to supporting them without requiring it then more power to them If money is freely given then it’s up to the artist to determine how it’s used, and more often than not it’s used as it should.
I don’t know who the original anon follows that holds donation drives and explicitly says that it’s for a videogame, but most calls for donations that I’ve seen have been for either emergency situations, or for the benefit of the artist’s general financial situation. If they have donations open outside of specific drives, who cares? No one is making you donate, or even look at the button. If you donate, then congratulations you’re supporting someone whose content you enjoy and want to see more from. If you don’t donate, then nothing happens to you, or to them and things go on as though you never saw the little donate button in the corner of their blog.
All that aside, if you’re going to judge someone for having the option available to give support at your own discretion, when that person provides free content it doesn’t matter whether art is their job or their hobby. In that situation, you’re the issue and should frankly piss off. -

@ask-raricow is up to 114 followers, and I am 100% certain that there will be a giveaway of some sort at 200.
-
Raricow’s back up to 109 followers, which I’m so happy about after the last blog was deleted. I think that if it hits 200 there should be another appearance giveaway to help get more people included in the blog, per the earlier response to @ask-fickleaura-mod-blog. I’d appreciate any help to get to that point.
