I already have the three starters tho what are some good parallels for Pikachu Snorlax and Lapras.Kingdra perhaps, Ampharos, I was thinking Togekiss but I still think he counts as Johto
typhlosion and 5 hm slaves
Do it with six Dunsparce and nothing else.
>>55773735Sudowoodo to match Snorlax because they're both roadblocksShuckle or a Hitmon to match Lapras because they're all gift Pokemon.
>>55773735Quagsire is very good, so youll want to use him
>>55773735azumarill works for both pikachu and lapras due to being a water type pikaclone, and you can have an umbreon to match his espeon in GSC.
>>55773735QuagKingdraSteelixstarterSkarmory/HoundoomScizor
>>55773735I guess>Pikachu to Togetic (togekiss is sinnoh)>Venusaur to Meganium>Charizard to Typhlosion>Blastoise to Feraligatr>Snorlax to Sudowoodo>Lapras to Red Gyarados?>(GSC) Espeon to UmbreonRed having Lapras instead of Espeon was dumb in HGSS.
>>55775069I think GF felt Espeon was too Johto and they wanted to give Red a full Kanto team so they went with another gen I gift Pokemon. And Lapras doesn't take Hail damage, so the player can't just win by stalling the whole battle because they bought hundreds of Revives and Max Potions.
>>55773735Assuming you dont want to use post game Johto mon I would do that:Tyranitar/Feraligatr>CharizardAmpharos/Meganium>Blastoise and LaprasEspeon/Skarmory/Typhlosion/Crobat>VenusaurHeracross/Hitmontop>SnorlaxDonphan>Pikachu
>>55773735I beat him with a Typhlosion, Ursaring, Miltank, Crobat, Skarmory and Espeon.
>>55773735This is a fun idea, OP.>pikachuAmpharos is the obvious choice but actually Elekid has very similar base stats to pikachu and he gets even better moves like the elemental punches.>talking about togekissOh wait you're playing gen 4 so elemental punches are move tutors. Sad.But if you just wanna not evolve him that's pretty much THE Johto equivalent of Pikachu.>snorlaxHe's pretty unique but the closest in theme may be Ursaring. Big bear with big physical attack. He isn't anywhere near as bulky, but its johto. Miltank is a little bulkier and gets milk drink. Its a good mon.>laprasYeah I would go for Kingdra. Or you could channel his G/S/C battle and go for Umbreon or Espeon since he has an Espeon in the original game. Unfortunately all the johto new ice types are complete garbage at least until you can evolve to Weavile and Mamoswine, which I'm not sure when you can do that. As far as a unique water type, Kingdra is the best one and he's super cool.
I'm going with a slightly different approach: There is no canon game where Gold/Kris got all 3 starters like Red did in Yellow. Therefore, I've done two teams, one for Gold and one for Kris. These are as accurate as you can get when you take the story into consideration. >b-b-b-but legendaries... Seethe harder, just because you don't like le legendaries doesn't mean this isn't accurate. Gold: >Togetic Egg mon received in Violet City >Shuckle Gift mon from Cianwood City >Umbreon Bill's gift mon (Eevee) in Goldenrod City >Hitmontop Gift mon from Karate King in Mt Mortar >Lugia Box legendary (available in both Gold and Silver) >Ho-oh Box legendary (available in both Gold and Silver) Kris: >Misdreavus Sugimori art confirms Kris has a Misdreavus >Sudowoodo Roadblock mon à la Snorlax >Espeon Bill's gift mon (Eevee) in Goldenrod City >Steelix In-game trade in Violet City, and Metal Coat is later received on S.S. Aqua >Suicune Box legendary (story focus) >Celebi GS Ball event
