Pokemon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition Questions

Added Dec 23 2006, ID #163292, by Master Volthawk

Usually the Legendary Birds: Zapdos, Moltres and Articuno, but you can have others like Blastoise, Charizard, Venasaur, Alakazam, Haunter, Gengar, Snorlax, Arcanine, Magmar, Machamp, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Dragonite, Aerodactyle. Basically the really powerful ones.

There are 4 types of trainers but they are all elemental so here are the following:
Ice
Earth
Ghost
Dragon
So here are the list of pokemons I would recommend them:
Pikachu: for the first trainer
Blastoise/alakazam/lapras will be the best option for the second trainer
Psychic related will work well on this trainer.
Use a ice-type Pokemon for the final trainer. Use pikachu because he has aerodactyl and he is vulnerable to thunder type. As for the rest just use ice type.

I like to have at least one good electric pokemon(Zapdos, Raichu, Electabuzz) for the 1st trainer, a good psychic or water pokemon(Alakazam, Mew, Mewtwo, Mr. Mime) for the 2nd, a Pokemon that knows an attack like earthquake, dig, or any strong earth-type attack for the ghosts and a psychic for the rest of the 3rd trainers, and an ice pokemon(Lapras, Cloyster) for the dragons with the 4th. You will need multiple types for gary at the end.

I have Charizard, Venasaur, Blastoise, Raichu, Alakazam and Mewtwo and that works pretty well. Even though I have two Psychic pokemon it's fine because their only weakesses are bug and ghost (but the only three ghosts in the game are also poision which psychic is super-effective on). As for bug, when have you ever heard of someone having a lvl. 100 beedrill or butterfree?

no there are gluitched levels up to 255 and a level 0

Added 5th Sep 2012, ID #183656, by Guest

he's right. its not a glitched pokemon really..depending on what you name yourself in pokemon blue, you can see a variety of pokemon over level 100. It's decided by your 3rd, 5th, and 7th letters. I have a level 255 aerodactyl because he appears at level 186 from the letter "lowercase l" when you surf up and down cinnabar island

Comments for this answer

I do not agree with you, how can a team be balanced if 4 pokemons have the same weakness?
Poliwrath, Aerodactyl,
Gyarados and Charizard are all weak to Electric.
Pikachu and Venusaur are both weak to Ground.
So a Pikachu and a Dugtrio/Golem/Nidoking/queen would bash your whole team easily.

Dragonite(catch Dratini in safari zone then raise it, give it thunder[in power plant], ice beam[top floor of biggest poke mart and give the girl water, lemonade, and soda], surf or fire blast[fire blast won in fire gym], and hyper beam[learned]. The three legendary birds[when you meet with them save before facing them and if you do not catch them then just turn it off and try again! A psychic Pokemon(I ue venemoth and he works really well with sleep powder, stun spore, psybeam, and psychic). And aerodactyl(find the fossil and take it to cinnabar city I think to the lab, the last door, and they will bring him back to life. These 6 are basically unstoppable. Here are other strong Pokemon suggestions: pikachu, clefairy, rhydon, graveler, lapras, charizard, venasaur, blastoise, staru,maybe executtor, hitmonchan or hitmonlee, cloyster, arkanine, gengar. Sorry if this is long, but just trying to help! Here is the final successful team
Dragonite
Moltres
Articuno
Zapidos
Any Psychic Pokemon(venemoth for me)
Aerodactyl

Blastoise(or articuno)
Pidgeot (or Machamp)

Though these are more mine on preference of Pokemon then actuall stats.

Riachu- just because it's the main electric
The 3 starters-just amazing
Lapres-great Pokemon and an ice type
And the greatist Pokemon in gen 1 with the best moves possible
Snorlax-rest-snore-double edge-and hyperbeam
With leftovers he just does not die.

Pikachu (because you already spent time training, and it's a strong electric type if you take the time with it.)

Pidgeot

Charizard (Good fire type, and you get early, Arcaine works well too)

Eevee (Vaporeon for it's ice attacks, Jolteon if you don't keep pikachu, Flareon if you don't like the other fire options *but flareon, while my fav, is low on defense.*

Gengar (if you can) is what I use, but if you're new, I would use Alakazam (if you can) or Hypno (good strong fall back)

Dragonite (can learn good attacks and works really well against Gary)

I'm planning on using

Haunter - Trade to evolve into Gengar
Moveset - Hypnosis - Dream Eater - Confuse Ray - Night Shade

Cloyster - Defence is awesome
Moveset - Blizzard - Clamp - Surf - Aurora Beam

Kadabra - Trade to evolve into Alakazam
Moveset - Psybeam - Psychic - Confusion - Recover

Zapdos - Strong Electric type
Moveset - Thunder Shock - Drill Peck - Thunder - Sky Attack

Articuno - Strong Ice type
Moveset - Blizzard - Ice Beam - Fly - Rest

Moltres - Strong Fire type
Moveset - Peck - Fire Spin

Anyone have any recommendations on what better moves for the legendary birds would be? OR better moves for my other Pokemon?

I'd go with the following Pokemon:

Pika/Raichu - Decent Pokemon
Blastoise - Every Starter
Venusaur - is Decent
Charizard - or Good
Machamp - Great attack
Mewtwo - Very high Sp. Att and Speed

I might change Blastoise for Lapras, Lapras has better types I think and his stats come pretty close to Blastoise's Stats.

Btw, Psychic Pokemon are Overpowered here because the maker made a mistake. Ghost would be super effective against Psychic. Even some in-game trainers say that. But the makers of Gen. 1 made it non-effective. That and the fact that Psychic Pokemon usually can learn a huge variety of different type moves makes a very Good/Overpowered type.
Due to that, another team would be:
Mewtwo
Mew
Venemoth
Alakazam
Kadabra
Hypno

As I only passed trough Pokemon yellow allways with only 1 main Pokemon .. I have little experience in team management.. But:

My preferred (mostly estetics and for purpuse of solo playing) team is as follow:

Nidoking - This "little" fella as been my favourite Pokemon since my first walktrough yellow Pokemon I used only him and no one else with this moveset...
(Earthquaque, Ice Beam, Tunderbold and Trash.. Yes Trash in yellow v. Is very good to clean up trainers with pokemons levels inferior to yours

when you reach elite four you can change it of course for a better move like surf or flametrower.

Dragonite - When I was a kid, for me this was the most rarest, precious and strongest Pokemon.. Today my opinion is very much changed, but anyway as soon as I could obtain dratini in the safari zone by fishing I would go immediatly train him intensely and then make the choise of only using dragonite or nidoking

As for the rest.. Me and Tradable Evolution Pokemon allways were very close to each other xD often used for tm's (I'm sorry alakazam!)

Golem
Gengar
Machamp
Alakazam

IÂ´m still planning on making a solo run with one of the traddable evolution pokemons.. I think I will give both machamp or alakazam a try and I will not regret it.

I only use snorlax-body slam, hyper beam, rest, surf
He beat the elite four and rival alone at level 62. Had to use an elixir cause he ran out of moves. Afterwards I used pp ups to up the amount of surf, hyper beam, and body slam.

The good thing about pkmn yellow, blue and red is that you can use a big lot of different Pokemon because they are a lot more powerfull than the other versions of pokemon.
For example, parasect is a good Pokemon in ybr and not in the others.
So this is a good choice for a team:
Parasect, electrode, starmie, flareon, machamp, and dragonite
