!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I forgot Bellsprout had vine whip early and you couldn't go back. Oddish on red with absorb by comparison is a monumental pain in the ass. Absorb sucks. At least Pikachu is fast with thunderwave and can help you catch an Abra for your I win button.
Thank you 😊
1 health, but ya made it.
I was golden. I even had the Bellsprout ready to go. The targetted levelling of that and the Pikachu made short work of Misty.
I'm not a Pokémon expert - my introduction was Pokémon Go - and I've soon learned that type effectiveness outweighs brute force and ignorance!
